[vc_row][vc_column][vc_column_text]Privacy policy
\n<\/strong><\/p>\n

This Privacy policy explains how we collect, use and protect any information about you. It also tells you how to get in touch if you have any questions, which we will be more than happy to answer. If you\u2019re interested in what we do with cookies and similar technologies, please check out our Cookie Statement.<\/p>\n

We may change this Notice from time to time; so please check back here for any updates.<\/p>\n

We offer a range of services related to online car rental, including products and services such as insurance, through our own websites, mobile apps, emails and text messages (\u2018platforms\u2019). We also do this through our business partners\u2019 websites, social media and other platforms. This Notice applies to all the personal data we collect while we\u2019re doing this, or when you contact us by email, live chat, phone or post.
\nOur business partners should also visit our Privacy and Cookie Statement for Business Partners to understand how personal data is processed as part of our business relationship.<\/p>\n

Personal data you give us<\/strong><\/p>\n

We can\u2019t help you make a booking or request a quote without certain information. When you do either of those things, we ask you for the information we need so we can give you what you want. This is pretty standard stuff and may include your name, age, date and place of birth and contact details (email, address and phone number). It can also include information about your passport, identity card and driving licence \u2013 and your loyalty programme number and payment information.<\/p>\n

In addition, we collect information from your computer when you use one of our platforms, even if you don\u2019t make a booking. This may include your IP address, which browser you use, and your language settings. There are also situations where we receive information about you from third parties, or automatically collect other information. This is a basic overview of the information we collect. Would you like to know more?<\/p>\n

Personal data you give us<\/strong><\/p>\n

We store and use the information that you give us. When you make a booking, we need at least your name, email address and payment information. We might also ask for your home address, phone number and date of birth, and the names of any additional drivers.<\/p>\n

If you get in touch with us (by phone, by email or through social media, for example) we will collect information from you there too.<\/p>\n

After your booking, we may ask you to provide a review to help us improve our services, and to help ensure future customers get exactly what they\u2019re looking for.<\/p>\n

There are also other ways you might give us information. For example, if you\u2019re browsing with your mobile device, you can share your current location with us, so we can provide you with the best possible service. To make things easier, you can also open a user account, which lets you review and manage your bookings, as well as saving your personal settings and your passport and driving licence details. It also makes it easier to make future bookings.<\/p>\n

Personal data you give us about others<\/strong><\/p>\n

You might add someone as an additional driver, or you might make a booking on behalf of someone else, for example, a friend, family member or colleague. If you do, please make sure that that person knows you\u2019re giving us their details, and has accepted the way we handle their personal data (as described in this Notice). This is your responsibility.<\/p>\n

Personal data we collect automatically<\/strong><\/p>\n

When you make a booking, we record what platform you made it on, and how you got to our platform (if you came through from another site, for example).<\/p>\n

Even if you don\u2019t end up making a booking, we may automatically collect some information when you visit our platforms. This may include your IP address, which pages you\u2019ve visited, which browser you\u2019re using, and information about clicks. It might also include information about your computer\u2019s operating system, its application version, language settings, device-specific setting and characteristics, and data that identifies your device.<\/p>\n

If you\u2019re using a mobile device, we might also collect location details. And we might analyse, and process basic data related to the apps installed on it (e.g. name, description and category).
\nPersonal data we get from other companies<\/p>\n

We may also get information about you from social media platforms, our business partners, subsidiaries of the Rentalcars.com corporate family, affiliates of the Booking Holdings Inc corporate group (see here for more information) and other third parties. For example:<\/p>\n

We work with affiliate business partners to offer our services on other platforms. When you make a booking on one of these platforms, we may share your personal data with them, and they may share your personal data with us.
\nThe companies that provide the services you have booked through our platforms may need to send us information about you \u2013 for example, if your booking leads to an insurance claim or customer service dispute.
\nOur business partners may also send us information about you that may help us show you more relevant adverts.<\/p>\n

We may combine any of this information with the information you give us directly.<\/p>\n

Please see \u2018Why do we collect and use your personal data?\u2019 for details.
\nWhy do we collect and use your personal data?<\/p>\n

We ask for your personal data so we can book your car (and anything else you need for your booking), and make sure you get the best possible service. We also use it to contact you, and to tell you about our latest deals and special offers. These are the main reasons we collect your personal data, but there are other reasons too. Would you like to know more?<\/p>\n

We may use your personal data in the following ways:<\/strong><\/p>\n

Bookings: First and foremost, we use your personal data to make and administer your booking, and to forward the necessary details to the company that provides your car (or other product or service, such as insurance). This includes sending you communications in relation to your booking, such as confirmations, modifications and reminders.
\nCustomer service: We provide international customer service 24\/7 in over 40 languages. Our international customer service teams need your details so they can help you make a booking, for example, or to reply to any queries you may have before, during or after your booking.
\nCustomer reviews: We may use your contact details to send you a short questionnaire about your booking. This helps us understand and improve our service and the service our business partners provide.
\nAccount facilities: To make things easier, you can create a user account on our platforms. This involves giving us your personal data, and it lets you do a number of useful things. You can manage your bookings or other purchases, take advantage of special offers, and manage your personal settings and preferences. It also makes it easier to make future bookings.
\nMarketing activities: We also use your personal data for marketing activities, which may include:
\nContacting you by post, phone, email or SMS (depending on the contact details you give us) with our latest news, special offers, discounts and updates, including details of our products and services (and\/or those of our group companies or affiliate business partners). You can unsubscribe from these marketing communications quickly, easily and at any time \u2013 just click the \u201cunsubscribe\u201d link in any email or visit our Data Subject Request Portal.
\nContacting you by phone, email or SMS with information about insurance products that you didn\u2019t include in your booking.
\nShowing you relevant offers on our platforms or on third-party websites, including social media sites.
\nInviting you to participate in promotional activities (such as referral programs or competitions).
\nCommunicating with you: There may be other times when we contact you by phone, email or SMS. There could be a number of reasons for this, including:
\nResponding to, and handling any requests you have made.
\nEmailing you a reminder about a booking you didn\u2019t finalise, to see if you need any help to do so. We see this as a useful additional service because it lets you carry on with a booking without having to find the car again or fill in all the booking details from scratch.
\nSending you a questionnaire or inviting you to review your experience.
\nSending you other material related to your booking, such as how to contact us (or another company) if you need help during your booking.
\nSending you a summary of your previous bookings.
\nSending you other administrative messages, which may include security alerts, even if you don\u2019t have an upcoming booking.
\nMarket research: We may ask you to take part in market research. Any additional personal data that you give us as part of this research will be used only with your consent.
\nFraud detection and prevention: To provide a safe, trustworthy service, we use your personal data to detect and prevent fraud and other illegal or unwanted activities. Similarly, we may use personal data for risk assessment and security purposes, which can include verifying users and bookings. This can sometimes mean we may have to put certain bookings on hold.
\nImproving our services: We analyse personal data to help us improve the functionality and quality of our online services, and enhance the whole user experience. We\u2019re always working to make our platforms easier and more enjoyable for you to use.
\nCustomer reviews: After your booking, we may invite you to review the services that we or our business partner provided. Your review will help future customers make the right choice, and help our business partners improve the services they offer. By submitting a review, you are agreeing that it can be displayed, as explained in our Terms and Conditions. You can make a review anonymously or simply put your first name and country location.
\nCall monitoring: We may record phone calls and\/or allow other staff to listen in to them, to help us train our colleagues and make sure we\u2019re consistently providing a top-quality service. We automatically delete recordings after a specified time, unless we have a legitimate reason not to (if we think there\u2019s evidence of fraud, for example).
\nLegal purposes: Finally, in certain cases, we may need to use your personal data to handle and resolve legal disputes, for regulatory investigations, for compliance reasons, or to make sure we apply our terms and conditions accurately.<\/p>\n

To process your personal data like this, we rely on the following legal grounds:
\nPerformance of a contract: We need to use your personal data to fulfil any contract you\u2019ve made with us. For example, when you book a car, we need to transfer your booking details to the rental company to make sure your car is waiting for you.
\nLegitimate interests: We may use your information for our \u2018legitimate interests\u2019 (a term which applies to anything we believe is an essential part of carrying out our business effectively \u2013 at the same time as respecting your rights and upholding the law). For example, to provide you with the most suitable content on our platforms, including our emails and newsletters; to improve and promote our products and services; and for administrative purposes.
\nConsent: We may rely on your consent to use your personal data in certain circumstances, for example direct marketing purposes. You may withdraw your consent at any time via our Data Subject Request Portal or by emailing info@arisrentacar.gr, stating \u201cPrivacy\u201d in the subject line.<\/p>\n

What third parties do we share your personal data with \u2013 and why?<\/strong><\/p>\n

The company supplying your car rental and\/or related products and services: To make your booking, we need to send the relevant details to the company\/companies supplying the car and\/or other related products (including insurance) that you have requested. These details may include your name, age range, contact details (email, address and phone number), date and place of birth, passport information, driving licence information and any preferences you told us about while booking. If there is a dispute about your booking or insurance cover, or any other kind of customer service issue, we may need to provide the rental company with some information about the booking process as well as the dispute itself. This may include a copy of your booking confirmation, to prove that a booking was actually made, as well as any information related to your complaint. Please be aware that any information you provide directly to the company\/companies supplying your car and\/or related products will be stored and used in accordance with their own privacy notice(s) and terms and conditions.<\/p>\n

Competent authorities: We may share your personal data with government or investigative authorities if we\u2019re required to do so by law (or any regulation having the force of law). This includes court orders, subpoenas and orders arising from legal processes and criminal investigations. We may also disclose your personal data if strictly necessary for the prevention, detection or prosecution of fraud and other criminal acts. And we may need to disclose personal data to competent authorities to protect and defend our rights or properties, or the rights or properties of our business partners.
\nThird-party service providers: We may use third-party service providers to process your personal data on our behalf and support us in providing our services. For example, we may use them to contact you, or to send booking information on our behalf to the company providing the service, or to manage aspects of our site, call centres or marketing activities. We may also use third-party service providers for market research, fraud detection and prevention services, including anti-fraud screening services. These third parties are bound by confidentiality clauses and are not allowed to use your personal data for other purposes.<\/p>\n

To give you a better service and more relevant marketing, we may use something known as \u2018cross-device tracking\u2019. This just means we look at the way you use our platforms on more than one device: we could, for example, combine data from your mobile phone and your home computer. This is something we may or may not use cookies for (for more on cookies and similar technologies, please see our Cookie Statement).<\/p>\n

To make sure you find deals that are more likely to interest you in our newsletter, we look at the searches you make and the services you book on multiple devices once you\u2019ve signed in to your user account. If you don\u2019t want us to do this, just sign out before you browse, or unsubscribe from our newsletter.<\/p>\n

Cross-device tracking can also mean that when you\u2019re using one device, you may see personalised advertisements from lots of different companies, based on your activities on linked devices. The NAI (Network Advertising Initiative) should stop this happening if you opt out of the NAI behavioural advertising program (our Cookie Statement gives you the link you need, under \u201cIt’s your choice: Opting in and opting out\u201d). Please note: simply signing out of your user account won\u2019t stop this happening.
\nWhat security procedures do we put in place to safeguard your personal data?<\/p>\n

Our business systems and procedures ensure we take all reasonable steps to protect your personal data and safeguard it against any misuse or unauthorised access, in accordance with UK and European data protection laws. We also have specific security procedures and restrictions (both technical and physical) that limit access to, and use of, any personal data that we hold. Only authorised personnel can access personal data \u2013 and they\u2019re only allowed to do it for specific, authorised reasons.
\nHow do we treat the personal data of children?<\/p>\n

We don\u2019t provide services to children under the age of 18 and we reserve the right to delete any information we may receive from a child under this age. We may receive information about children in certain situations, such as an insurance claim or a customer service dispute. If that happens, we will only collect and use that information with the consent of the child\u2019s parent or guardian.
\nHow can you control the personal data you have given us?<\/p>\n

You have the right, subject to some legal exceptions, to access, correct or delete any personal data we keep about you, and to object to your personal data being processed. You can use our Data Subject Access Portal to enforce any of these rights. If you do, we will ask for further information to confirm your identity, to keep your information safe and we will handle your request in accordance with applicable UK data protection law. You can update or delete your user account at any time by signing in on our site.<\/p>\n

When you make a booking or request a quote, we ask whether you\u2019d like to opt in to receive marketing emails. You can opt out at any time by clicking \u201cunsubscribe\u201d in any of these marketing emails, or by updating your email preferences in your user account.<\/p>\n

We only process the personal data you provide us such as your name, contact details, e-mail address, telephone number, information on your reservation, such as your reservation code, details of the transaction through which you made the booking, e.g. the details of the card you used to make the payment.
\nLegitimate reasons for processing your personal data are:<\/strong><\/p>\n

    \n
  1. the provision of the services you assign to us and you wish to receive from us and, consequently, the discharge of our contractual obligations in this context;<\/li>\n
  2. your consent under the specific conditions set out in the legal framework so that you may receive information regarding services, offers that are sometimes tailored to your personal preferences both by arisrentacar and\/or third party affiliates that process your personal data in accordance with the framework in force at any given time.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n
    \n

    How and why do we use your personal data?<\/h3>\n

    To manage your reservations and provide our services. When you make a reservation with us, we use the information required for the provision of our services, delivery of the vehicle, refunding fares, managing your reservation and serving you as a customer individually or in groups.<\/p>\n

    To communicate with you and manage our relationship with you. We may need to contact you by e-mail or telephone for administrative purposes, such as confirming your bookings and payments, notifying you in regard to your reservation, handling requests you have submitted for services not received and generally speaking, handling your complaints.<\/p>\n

    To let you know about our news and offers. Once you have consented to this, we will send you promotional messages about our rental services, updates and the offers of arisrentacar, sometimes tailored to your preferences and interests, if you have chosen to do so, so that we may improve your customer experience.<\/p>\n

    To improve our services and protect our business interests. The business purposes for which we will use your information help us improve the services we provide, meet your expectations and control transactions from our sales, so as to respond to any requests for contesting charges on your cards and manage the clearance of our sales.<\/p>\n

    To comply with legal obligations. When, for example, we collect information relating to passenger accidents, we handle ticket replacement or refund requests, passenger compensation, keep an archive of complaints and passenger feedback.<\/p>\n

    \n

    Data Storage Period<\/h3>\n

    The length of the data storage period is decided on the basis of the following specific criteria, as appropriate:<\/p>\n

      \n
    1. When processing is required as an obligation under provisions of the legal framework in force, your personal data will be stored for as long as required by the relevant provisions.<\/li>\n
    2. When processing is done on a contractual basis, your personal data will be stored for as long as is necessary for the performance of the contract and for the foundation, exercise, and\/or support of legal claims under the contract.<\/li>\n
    3. For purposes of promoting products and services (marketing activities), your personal data is retained until your consent is withdrawn. You can withdraw your consent at any time. Withdrawal of consent does not affect the lawfulness of processing based on consent during the period prior its withdrawal.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n

      \n
