8. International Transfers of Your Personal Information
Due to the nature of the company, it is possible that your personal information will be transferred to countries outside the EU/EEA when booking a trip with us. In certain cases, in order to be able to deliver our services to you we need to use partners and suppliers located outside the EU/EEA.
Without the ability to transfer information about you to recipients outside the EU/EEA we are unable to deliver the tour you booked to you. This applies when booking a trip that requires that your information is sent to a recipient outside the EU/EEA in order to, for example, book a flight, hotel etc. at your final destination.
Data protection legislation in these countries may be less strict than in Denmark and the rest of the EU/EEA, as in most cases we work with countries where the European Commission has assessed that the level of data protection is not in line with the levels of data protection found inside the EU/EEA.
If it is at all practically possible for us, transfer of your personal data will be based on standard transfer contracts developed by the European Commission especially for this purpose. As far as transfers to the USA are concerned, they will de carried out as far as possible on the basis of Privacy Shield. Privacy Shield is an agreement between the EU and the United States which, amongst other things, establishes a strong set of data protection rules and security measures that US companies, that are part of this venture, are obliged to comply with when processing personal data.
However, in certain cases, it will not be feasible for us to enter into a standard transfer contract or use Privacy Shield as a legal basis for transfers. In such cases the transfer of information will be based on Article 49(1)(b) of the Data Protection Act, as the transfer of your personal data to the country concerned is necessary for the purpose of fulfilling the contact between you and us (booking your tour) or is necessary for the execution of measures taken at your request prior to the conclusion of such a contract (eg. In connection with the request for a qualified offer as mentioned under section 7 above).
It is therefore important that you are that transferring your personal data to countries outside the EU/EEA when booking a tour with Diana Hunting Tours means that your personal data will not enjoy the same level of protection as when under Danish or EU legislation.
When transferring information there is potential risk that there is no clear, precise and available legislation regarding the authority of the country’s government to use your personal information, and that there are no rules stating that any use of your personal information by the countries authorities must be necessary and proportionate, and that the country has no independant and effective regulatory body, and that there are no available and effective guidelines for use of the data registed.
If you do not wish Diana Hunting Tours to send your personal information to recipients outside the EU/EEA when booking your trip, please inform us at the time of booking.
Under no circumstances do we pass on your personal information to recipients outside the EU/EEA unless it is absolutely necessary for us to carry out our business and to fulfil your wishes, for example to provide you with the tour you booked.
9. Data Integrity and Security
Personal data is not stored for any longer than is necessary to fulfil the purposes for which they were collected, unless their storage is required to comply with national legal requirements, such as statutory storage periods in connecting with accounting procedures etc.
It is the company’s policy to protect your personal data by taking adequate technical and organisational security measure. When your personal information is no longer required, we ensure that it is deleted in a safe and responsible manner.
