for the processing of automated data and profiling activities for commercial and marketing purposes;

It is specified that the complete and constantly updated list of the aforementioned subjects to whom personal data may be communicated as Data Processors can be requested using one of the communication channels made available by the Company for the exercise of the rights of the data subjects, as indicated below.

Purpose and legal basis of the processing

In the operations of booking and selling tickets, boarding acceptance, and during the journey, Alilauro S.p.A. acquires and processes the data of both the Customer (the ticket buyer who enters into the transport contract) and the Passenger (i.e., all individuals to whom the ticket refers, embarked on the ferry).

The processing of the acquired personal data takes place for the following distinct purposes and is based on different legal bases for processing:

  • Management of pre-contractual phases, performance of its own activities, and management of relationships established with all stakeholders; this processing is necessary for the conclusion and execution of the contract of which the data subject is a part.
  • Compliance with obligations under laws, regulations, EU legislation, provisions issued by Authorities, and competent supervisory and control bodies (in particular, laws on security and anti-terrorism protection; rules related to administrative compliance, etc.). In this case, the legal basis for the processing is represented by the need to comply with a legal obligation.

Additionally, Alilauro S.p.A. acquires Customer data to conduct market research and for marketing and commercial purposes, offering personalized services and promotions based on Customer preferences. In this case, explicit consent from the data subject will be required.

Categories of data acquired and processing methods

The personal data subject to processing, carried out for the purposes of booking and purchasing the ticket and accepting the passenger on board, as well as in accordance with Directive 18/06/1998, No. 41 transposed by DM 13/10/1999, are collected by Alilauro S.p.A. directly from the data subject and/or from third parties (the Customer) and belong to the following categories:

  • Personal data (name and surname, gender, age or date of birth, nationality);
  • Contact details (phone number, email, etc.);
  • Data related to the health status of the passenger (falling under the “special categories of data” referred to in Article 9 of the GDPR and the corresponding articles of Legislative Decree No. 196/2003).

Nature of data provision

  • Mandatory data: personal data and data related to the nationality of the passenger

These personal data are strictly functional to the provision of the service, acquired and processed for booking and purchasing the ticket, and for accepting the passenger on board.

These data are essential for the establishment and continuation of the relationship, also in accordance with applicable legal and regulatory provisions; therefore, any refusal by the data subject to provide and process them objectively makes it impossible for Alilauro S.p.A. to provide the aforementioned services. For further details, please refer to the “Transport Conditions” published at the following link on the Alilauro S.p.A. website: http://www.alilauro.it/

  • Optional data: data related to the health status of the passenger (e.g., any disabilities)

The provision of this data is optional as it does not prevent Alilauro S.p.A. from providing the transport service to the passenger.

However, the lack of consent to the provision and processing of these types of data could compromise the quality of the service provided by Alilauro S.p.A., as assistance and any necessary care cannot be guaranteed.

  • Optional data: contact data acquired for promotional and commercial purposes, marketing, market research, etc.

The provision and processing of this data, which occurs only with the explicit consent of the Customer, is optional and does not impact the service provided by Alilauro S.p.A. to the passenger.

Processing based on the data subject’s consent

For the processing of certain data, Alilauro S.p.A. requires the explicit consent of the data subject:

  • Processing of special data (data related to the health status of the passenger, etc.)

The processing of data related to the health status of the passenger (or other special data under Article 9 of the GDPR) is carried out only with the data subject’s consent and exclusively for the fulfillment of contractual obligations and compliance with applicable laws and regulations.

  • Processing of personal data for promotional and commercial purposes, marketing, market research, etc.

The Customer always has the option to express consent regarding the processing for marketing and commercial purposes, market research, and the provision of services, without the failure to provide such consent or its revocation affecting the performance of the service under the contract.

In each of these cases, the Data Controller provides the data subject with tools to revoke consent as easily as it was given.

The methods for revoking consent are explicitly explained in the same way the data subject gives consent to the processing of the data.

Regarding the mentioned commercial and marketing purposes, the processing of data is mainly carried out in an automated manner and will be done to ensure the security and confidentiality of the data subject.

Dissemination and communication of data to the data subject

Alilauro S.p.A. does not disclose or communicate passengers’ personal data to third parties, except in cases where communications are necessary to comply with legal obligations, administrative requirements, and orders from Public Authorities.
