Bookingautos and related applications are being operated by a Positive Technologies company, whose registered office is Andorra, Canillo, El Tarter, Sola del Tarter, Trineu 1-4-B. ETrawler ("ETrawler") is a company whose registered office is at Classon House, Dundrum Business Park, Dundrum, Dublin 14, Ireland, is the operator of the booking engine, or the Platform, and therefore the controller of the personal data which is described in this data protection notice.

You can contact ETrawler directly using the below mentioned link, or if you have any queries in relation to the processing of your personal data you can also contact us by emailing support@bookingautos.com. In most of the below described cases our company does not control your personal data since we do not operate the booking engine, or the Platform, and therefore we do not get your personal data in this connection, but ETrawler does.

In addition to the information that may be collected in assistance of our website, we sometimes receive information that is collected on our behalf or on behalf of ETrawler by third parties, such as when you see a Bookingautos advert displayed on a third party site.

- Third Parties – For the purposes of advertising a programme is being used under which third parties advertise our website on our behalf. If you click on one of those advertisements you are directed to ETrawler’s Platform using a technology that allows them to understand which third party referred you. Then the track is being done if you make a booking, and if you do that booking is being attributed to the relevant third party for the purposes of paying them a commission. However, the third party doesn’t get any personal information in relation to you.
- Service Provider - If there are any issues with a service provider, the service provider may contact us or ETrawler with information about the issue.
- Advertisements - When the cooperation with third parties is being made in order to display advertisements the technologies like cookies or pixel tags may be used to record details of your interaction with those advertisements. This data is sometimes collected through cookies and pixel tags that are set on our behalf by those third parties. If data is so collected it will be done on an anonymised basis.
Purposes of Processing and Legal Basis
The main reason of your personal data usage is to process your bookings for car rental and ancillary Services and to deal with any queries or issues that may arise in relation to those bookings. Your personal data may be also used for certain other reasons, such as tailoring the adverts and marketing emails to ensure that they are relevant to you and monitoring your use of the Platform to help to make improvements and tailor the display.
The following are further details of the processing and the legal basis which justifies this processing:
- Abandonment E-mails and Phone Calls – Your personal data may be processed in order to contact you and clarify whether you encountered any issues when seeking to make a booking. This is done on the basis of the legitimate interest in ensuring quality customer service and that there are no issues with the Platform.
- Bookings - Your personal data will be used in order to process bookings with the service providers, and to let you manage your bookings through the Platform. Where your personal data will be processed for this purpose ETrawler will do so either on the basis that it is necessary for the performance of a contract or on the basis of their legitimate interests in providing the booking service.
- Insurance Policy / Other Ancillary Product or Service – If you take out an insurance policy with one of ETrawler’s insurance partners in connection with your reservation or book another ancillary service, your data will be processed in order to facilitate the booking of that Service.

- Queries and Complaints - When you send a query, or have a complaint, about a booking or about any other ancillary Service, your personal data will be processed in order to answer your query or in order to resolve your complaint.

Where possible this data is used on an anonymous basis. All of this processing of your personal data is on the basis of the legitimate interests in operating, improving and securing the Services.

Personal Data that is Required
You are not obliged to provide any of your personal data. However, if you want to make a booking, or avail of an ancillary service, you will need to provide the information that is requested by the booking engine. If you don't provide this information, your booking won’t be able to be processed. Similarly, you may be required to provide certain information if you contact the customer services team with a query or complaint. You will be informed where such information is required.
Recipients of Data
In order to process your booking your details are to be sent to the relevant Service provider. If you contact us with a query or complaint in relation to a booking we may also share details of the query or complaint with the Service provider so that we can resolve it.
If you purchase another service your personal data may be shared with the third-party service provider so that they can provide you with that service. If you make a claim under an insurance policy your personal data may be shared with the underwriter or other appointed claims handler.
As part of the online advertising programmes your personal data may be shared with third parties, who will combine it with data that they hold about you in order to tailor adverts that appear on third-party websites (which may be our own adverts, or adverts we serve on behalf of third parties). Where this data is shared it is protected using encryption or other security measures.
A number of service providers is used to assist in providing the Services, some of whom will have access to your data (e.g. various software service providers who host the data as part of their services). Where a third party is engaged to process your data certain procedures apply in order to make sure that they respect your privacy rights and that they process data in accordance with data protection law. Further details are as follows:
- Hosting Providers - various cloud service and co-location providers are being used to help to host and manage the data.

- Auditors - ETrawler has an internal and external audit function that is provided by third parties. The auditors help them to ensure that they are complying with the legal obligations, including in relation to their processing of personal data.
Transfers Abroad
There are certain circumstances where your personal data will be transferred outside of the European Union to a country which is not recognised by the European Commission as providing an equivalent level of protection for personal data as is provided for in the European Union. The most common of these is where your personal data is transferred to a Service provider so that they can fulfil your booking. Your personal data may also be transferred outside of the European Union in connection with the operation of the business, such as when a service provider is used that is based in another jurisdiction. If your personal data is transferred outside of the European Union, it will be ensured that appropriate measures are in place to protect your personal data and to comply with the obligations under applicable data protection law. This may include entering into contracts in the form approved by the European Commission with the entity to whom your personal data has been transferred, or ensuring that the company to which your personal data has been transferred has agreed to abide by an approved transfer mechanism, such as the EU-US Privacy Shield framework.
Retention
Your personal data is retained in accordance with the record retention policy. The record retention policy operates on the principle that your personal data is kept for no longer than is necessary for the purpose for which it is collected, and in accordance with any requirements that are imposed on us by law. This means that the retention period for your personal data will vary depending on the type of personal data.
