The processing is carried out on the basis of our legitimate interest (within the meaning of Art. 6 para. 1, sentence 1 lit. f) GDPR). If you have consented to the use of marketing cookies, Rokt also sets cookies that help to deliver offers that are as relevant as possible to you.

The processing of data about users of a Partnershop in connection with the use of an Internet offer and its functions outside of order processes (including processing for the purposes of IT security, usage analysis and the display of advertising - if necessary using cookies) - as detailed in sections 2.1 - 2.3 - is not subject to the common data protection responsibility with the cooperation partner. EVENTIM is solely responsible for these processing activities.
2. Credit risk is assessed on the basis of mathematical-statistical procedures at the credit agency (SCHUFA Holding AG, Kormoranweg 5, D-65201 Wiesbaden, Germany, or Creditreform Boniversum GmbH, Hellersbergstr. 11, 41460 Neuss, Germany, or infoscore Consumer Data GmbH, Rheinstra e 99, 76532 Baden-Baden, Germany), so-called scoring. For this purpose, your personal data, which are necessary for the credit assessment (name, address, birthday) are transferred to the credit agency. We process your personal data for the purpose of credit assessment to avoid payment default. On the basis of the transferred personal data, including address data, a statistical probability of a credit default and thus your solvency is calculated. The credit agency then transfers your score value to us. Furthermore, CTS EVENTIM reserves the right to transmit data on non-contractual behaviour or fraudulent behaviour to SCHUFA Holding AG, Kormoranweg 5, 65201 Wiesbaden, or Creditreform Boniversum GmbH, Hellersbergstr. 11, 41460 Neuss, or infoscore Consumer Data GmbH, Rheinstra e 99, 76532 Baden-Baden in the event of continued non-payment of claims that are not substantiated and disputed. The data exchange with SCHUFA, Boniversum or infoscore also serves the fulfilment of legal obligations to carry out creditworthiness checks of customers ( 505a and 506 BGB).
