What types of personal data do we collect?

We collect personal data about you, about your travel arrangements, about how you use our services and products, and about how you use our websites, call centres and mobile applications, and such personal data so collected includes without limitation:

• Your name and surname.
• Contact information including address of residence, email address, telephone number, and fax number.

• Personal description and photograph (including passport and other identification documents) when you book a flight with us.

• Information about your travel arrangements, such as details of your bookings, travel itinerary, details of any additional assistance you require and other information related to your travel with us.
• Information about the services we have provided to you in the past, including your previous travel arrangements, such as flights and other bookings, and related matters, such as upgrades, etc.
• Information about your use of our websites, call centres and mobile applications, including information about which pages you view.

• Other information that may be required by us, to carry out obligations arising from any contracts entered between you and us, and/or to carry out client surveys and/or offers.

This personal data may include information that you provide to us directly or through companies or agents we work with, as well as information which we collect when you use our products or services.

When, and why, do we collect ‘sensitive personal data’?

Certain categories of personal data, such as that about race, ethnicity, religion or health, are considered “sensitive personal data” under the DPA and GDPR. Generally, we try to limit the circumstances where we process sensitive personal data. However, this can occasionally occur because:

• you have requested specific medical assistance from us and/or an airport operator, such as the provision of wheelchair assistance or oxygen, or,
• you have sought clearance from us to fly with a medical condition or because you are pregnant, or,
• you have otherwise chosen to provide such information to us (or a third party such as the agent or broker through which you made your booking).

In addition, you may have made other requests in connection with making your travel arrangements that may possibly imply or suggest something about you that could be as “sensitive personal data”. For example, if you request a particular type of special meal this may imply or suggest that you hold particular religious beliefs or have a particular medical condition.

By providing any personal data that is, or could be considered to be, “sensitive personal data” you explicitly agree that we may collect, use, share with third parties and transfer outside the European Economic Area this Personal Data, as described in this Policy.
If you withdraw your consent, it may mean we will not be able to provide all or parts of the products or services you have requested from us. Please be aware that in these circumstances you will not be able to cancel or obtain a refund of any fees you have paid.

What do we use your personal data for?
We store, handle, send and generally process personal data to provide you with the best service, and in particular for the following reasons:

• We will need to use the personal data to fulfil your request and provide your flight if you choose to fly with us. This will include passing your personal data to relevant authorities such as passport control and border agencies and where appropriate relevant police and customs authorities. We may also need to contact you if we have questions regarding your request;
• To deal with the general enquiries you raise from time to time on our services;
• To ensure that you or any passenger is not the subject or target of any economic or trade sanction law or regulation or travel ban;
• For the purposes of accounting and billing, immigration and customs control, health and safety, security and legal compliance;
• To carry out obligations and/or enforce rights arising from any contracts entered between you and us;
• For internal record keeping and the general administration of your records by us;
• For security purposes to protect your personal data held and/or processed by us;
• For training our employees in respect of providing our service and products to you;
• For statistical analysis;
• To improve our products and services;
• For our general marketing purposes where you have notified us that you consent to receive information about us and our services, products and offers;
• From time to time, we may also use your personal data to contact you for feedback on our services and third party supplier services so as to assist us in their improvement and development.

Without prejudice to the foregoing:
We will use your personal data to fulfil your travel arrangements and to deliver the services you have asked for. This may include processing information about travel arrangements that are not provided by us but which nevertheless form part of your overall journey, such as details of your arrangements at airports and customs and immigration formalities.

Please also be aware that in some airports where we operate, facial recognition and related biometric technology is used in order to facilitate passenger boarding.

We may use your personal data to provide services tailored to your requirements and treat you more personally, for example:

• to deliver messages and information that we think is relevant and may be of interest to you, prior to, during, and after your travel with us
• to personalise and tailor your travel experience

We may use and retain your personal data, including your purchase history, for administrative purposes, which may include for example, accounting and billing, auditing, credit or other payment card verification, anti-fraud screening (including the use of credit reference agency searches and payment card validation checks), immigration and customs control, safety, security, health, administrative and legal purposes and systems testing, maintenance and development.

Who do we share your personal data with?
Your personal data may be be disclosed to a third party who acquires us or substantially all of our assets.

We may also share some of your personal data with, or obtain your personal data from, the following categories of third parties:

For example, for specific travel routes we are required by law to provide border control agencies with information that relates to your travel documents and to your travel itinerary.
• Travel agents or other companies through which you book your Air Horizont flights
• Suppliers providing services to us in order to help us run our business and improve our services and your customer experience. We may for example share your personal data with the companies who provide ground services for us to the airports to which we operate. We may also disclose your information to our contact centre or the companies who help us get your feedback on our services.At Air Horizont, we select very carefully our suppliers who process your personal data on our behalf and require that they comply with high security standards for the protection of your personal data.
• Credit and debit card companies
  Air Horizont shares some of your personal data, which includes information about your method of payment and flight booking, to the credit or debit card company that issued the card you used to make your booking. In order to ensure the security of your transactions and prevent or detect fraudulent transactions, we may also share your information with our fraud screening partner.
• Our partners who offer travel related products and services on our website, promote offers or co-organise competitions on our website.

From time to time, we make certain third party offers available through our website or we publish competitions co-organised by third parties. If you choose to purchase products or services offered on our websites by third parties (for example car hire), accept offers or participate in a competition, some of your personal data, such as your contact details and your billing information, may be directly collected by or disclosed to that third party.
As such, if you purchase their products or services, your information may be collected by or transferred to our Partners.

Air Horizont and other carriers are required by laws in several countries to give border control agencies and other public authorities access to booking and travel information and other personal data (including data obtained from official photo identification documents). Therefore, any information we hold about you and your travel arrangements may be disclosed to the customs, immigration and public authorities of any country in your itinerary.

In addition, laws in several countries require Air Horizont and other carriers to collect passport and associated information for all passengers prior to travel to or from those countries. When required, Air Horizont will provide this information to the relevant customs and immigration authorities.

We will keep your personal data for as long as we need it for the purpose it is being processed for. For example, where you book a flight with us we will keep the information related to your booking, so we can fulfil the specific travel arrangements you have made and after that, we will keep the information for a period which enables us to handle or respond to any complaints, queries or concerns relating to the booking. The information may also be retained so that we can continue to improve your experience with us and to ensure that you receive any loyalty rewards which are due to you.

We will actively review the information we hold and delete it securely, or in some cases anonymise it, when there is no longer a legal, business or customer need for it to be retained

Transmission of information over the internet
Unfortunately, the transmission of information via the internet is not completely secure. Although we will do our best to protect your personal data, we cannot guarantee the security of your data transmitted to our Services; any transmission is at your own risk.
