d. Social Media

i. Linking and Redirecting to Instagram

a. On our website, you will find a link in the form of an icon to the social media platform Instagram. It is not a plugin provided by Instagram that automatically transfers data when loading the page. Instead, it is merely an external link that redirects you to the Instagram platform. No user data is transmitted from our website to Instagram.

b. Notice on Redirecting:

Clicking the Instagram icon will first display an intermediate page informing you that you are leaving our website and being redirected to the external platform Instagram.

Only after your confirmation will the redirection to Instagram occur.

c. Data Processing by Instagram:

If you are already logged into your Instagram account, it will be recognized upon clicking the link, and you will be directed to our Instagram profile.

If you are not logged in, you will first be prompted to log in.

From this point, your use will be subject to Instagram's privacy policy.

Instagram is a service of Meta Platforms Inc., 1601 Willow Rd, Menlo Park, CA 94025, USA.

Data processing may also occur in the USA, where there may not be a level of protection equivalent to European data protection law.

b. By visiting and using our Instagram presence, personal data of users may be processed by Meta Platforms Inc. (operator of Instagram). Please note that Instagram may store and process personal data outside the European Union. This may lead to a different legal situation that does not correspond to the standards of the GDPR. This may pose risks to users, such as difficulties in enforcing rights of data subjects.

c. Data Processing by Instagram:

Instagram collects and processes users' personal data for market research and advertising purposes.

Based on user behavior and derived interests, profiles can be created to display personalized advertising within and outside of Instagram.

Cookies and similar technologies are used in this process, which are stored on the user's device.

If you have an Instagram account and are logged in, Instagram can associate additional data about you with your profile.

d. Legal Basis for Data Processing:

Our use of Instagram is based on our legitimate interest in a contemporary and effective corporate communication, as well as providing information for customers and interested parties (Art. 6 para. 1 lit. f GDPR).

If Instagram obtains user consent for certain processing, e.g., through cookie banners or consent to personalized advertising, processing is based on Art. 6 para. 1 lit. a GDPR.

e. Further Information and Opt-out Options:

Detailed information on user data processing by Instagram can be found in Meta's privacy policy: https://privacycenter.instagram.com/policy.

Where do we store the data?

Category: Always

Non-personal data

Please note that our companies, as well as our trusted partners and service providers, are located around the world. For the purposes explained in this Privacy Policy, we store and process any non-personal information we collect in different jurisdictions.

Category: User collects personal data

Personal data

Personal data may be maintained, processed and stored in the United States, Ireland, South Korea, Taiwan, Israel and as necessary for the proper provision of our Services and/or as required by law (as further explained below) in other jurisdictions.

a. Data Retention

a. We generally retain your personal data for as long as a business relationship with you exists.

b. Upon termination of the business relationship, we will delete your data unless there are statutory retention periods that prevent this, or you request the deletion of your data.

c. If you request us to delete your data, we will comply with this request to the extent that we delete any data not required for statutory retention.

b. Location of Data Processing (Including Outside the EU)

a. YSP also processes your data outside the EU.

b. Due to the global nature of our company, we may transfer your personal data to other countries whose data protection laws may be less comprehensive than those in the EU. Access to your personal data is limited to certain individuals who need to know this data for the purposes described in this privacy policy. One purpose of such a transfer could be travel to a country for services like hotel accommodation, catering services, or transfer services.

c. To secure your data in these so-called third countries, we enter into standard contractual clauses with our local partners and ensure they operate following EU-wide regulations and guarantee data deletion.

c. Disclosure to Third Parties

a. We only share your personal data with parties who need it to fulfill our tasks. This may involve support from service providers. For the execution and processing of the trips we organize (tourism services), we forward your personal data to service providers or respective contractual partners. These include the airline or check-in representative, hotel, transport company, tour guides on-site, billing and distribution system providers, or travel insurance.

b. In the Internet Partner Program, we only transmit the personal data you have entered and your binding booking request to the agency you have specified. Your payment details are not directly passed to the travel agency of your choice due to data protection reasons. We only forward personal data in the legally permissible cases where it is necessary for processing your booking or the associated payment process. In all other cases, only anonymized data that cannot be traced back to you is forwarded. Collection or transmission of personal data to government institutions and authorities occurs only within the scope of mandatory legal provisions. The sale of personal data to third parties, particularly addresses, does not take place explicitly.

c. Additionally, it may be necessary to share your data with other entities within our corporate group. In doing so, we adhere to data protection regulations. Your personal data may also be shared with IT service providers as well as authorities or other service providers.

d. The aforementioned recipients may be located in a country outside the EU. This country may not have an adequate level of data protection compared to the data protection level within the European Union. This means that the data protection laws in the country to which we transfer your data may not offer the same protection as in Germany. As a rule, data is only transferred to third countries without adequate data protection levels using the so-called EU Standard Contractual Clauses.

d. Links to Other Websites

Our offering includes links to external third-party websites, over which we have no control. Therefore, we cannot assume any liability for these external contents. The respective provider or operator of the linked sites is always responsible for their content. At the time of linking, the linked sites were checked for possible legal violations. Illegal content was not recognizable at the time of linking. However, a permanent control of the linked pages’ content is not reasonable without specific indications of a legal violation. Upon becoming aware of any legal violations, we will remove such links immediately.

- Right to access, according to Art. 15 GDPR

- Right to rectification, according to Art. 16 GDPR
