Data Processing During Registered Use of Zurich Taxi Transfer Services and Booking Rides
Zurich Taxi Transfer processes the following personal data provided by you when you register and use Zurich Taxi Transfer Services or when you book rides (hereinafter “customer data”).
Personal master data (form of address, title, first name, last name, company, address, zip code, place, country, password);
Contact data (e.g. telephone number, cellphone number, e-mail address);
Contract data (e.g. time and manner of registration, status)
Ride-related data (e.g. pickup location, destination, times, flight number, special requests).
Status (e.g. bonus program), customer history (e.g. previous rides);
Contract invoicing (e.g. invoices, status, invoicing address) and payment data (e.g. last 4 digits of the credit card number).
The customer data will be used for Zurich Taxi Transfer services, i.e. for the personalized fulfillment of the framework agreement after registration (creation, storage, administration and support of your Zurich Taxi Transfer account), for the procurement of booked rides and for the fulfillment of the contract of carriage for the benefit of the customer with the limousine service provider. Zurich Taxi Transfer provides customer data to third parties, if necessary, in particular to the limousine service providers so that the customer can be transported in accordance with their booking and the transport can be processed. If the customer has indicated a bonus program supported by Zurich Taxi Transfer, the data required in this regard is transmitted to the bonus program provider. The payment data collected is stored via a payment service provider and transferred to the intermediary financial service provider or bank.
Customers have the possibility to rate a ride arranged by Zurich Taxi Transfer e.g. in the Zurich Taxi Transfer App. Ratings are stored in the customer’s profile and can be communicated to the respective driving service or provider or chauffeur in anonymised form. The customer can view his own reviews, other customers will not see these reviews. The purpose of the data processing within the evaluation system is the handling of the trip or the payment towards the driver or the dispatcher as well as the analysis and improvement of the Zurich Taxi Transfer Services, e.g. to monitor the proper execution of trips, to increase the quality and to prevent or combat illegal use. Ratings are usually not stored for more than 2 years and then deleted or anonymised.
The legal basis for the processing of personal data during the registered use of Zurich Taxi Transfer Services and during the booking of trips is Art. 6 para. 1 lit. b GDPR (contract performance). If the data subject provides additional, voluntary information (e.g. flight number, frequent flyer programme, special requests, rating), the legal basis is their consent according to Art. 6 Paragraph 1 lit a GDPR and our legitimate interest according to Art. 6 Paragraph 1 lit. f GDPR.
In addition, Zurich Taxi Transfer processes customer data in order to analyse the use of the Zurich Taxi Transfer Services, to design and improve them in a demand-oriented and personalised manner, to advertise the Zurich Taxi Transfer Services, to detect, limit and eliminate malfunctions and problems of a technical or process-related nature and to prevent illegal use of the Zurich Taxi Transfer Services (e.g. fraudulent booking, cyberattacks). In this respect, the legal basis for the processing of personal data is Art. 6 para. 1 lit. f GDPR (legitimate interest of Zurich Taxi Transfer). Data will not be passed on to recipients in this respect unless to Zurich Taxi Transfer’s data processors (see Art. 28 GDPR) or as far as otherwise permitted by law.
Payment
All Zurich Taxi Transfer bookings can be paid by credit or debit card. The credit card information only has to be stored once upon the first booking and is protected against unauthorized access. For this purpose, a certified payment provider is used whose systems meet the applicable security standards, such as the PCI DSS standard (Payment Card Industry Data Security Standard). For recurring transactions, the card data is stored with our assigned PCI DSS-certified payment provider. In this respect, the legal basis for the processing is Art. 6(1)(b) GDPR (performance of contract).
Zurich Taxi Transfer itself does not store credit card data or only in abbreviated form for analysis purposes or to prevent fraud. The legal basis for this is Art. 6 Paragraph 1 lit f GDPR (Zurich Taxi Transfer’s legitimate interest).
To ensure that a payment instrument is used by its rightful owner and to prevent fraud, IP addresses, e-mail addresses, payment data and card information may be transmitted to one or more external fraud prevention service providers. This transmission may also contain additional personal data. The external fraud prevention service providers process these personal data on behalf of Zurich Taxi Transfer. The legal basis for this processing is Art. 6 para. 1 lit. f GDPR (legitimate interest of Zurich Taxi Transfer).
In the course of the authentication of the cardholder, it may also be necessary for individual transactions that Zurich Taxi Transfer requires a copy of an additional identification document (e.g. identity card, passport, drivers’ licence) or a copy of the credit card. Zurich Taxi Transfer will ask you to black out any data that is not required (e.g. the credit card number except the last four digits). In this respect, the legal basis is Art. 6 para. 1 lit. b GDPR (fulfilment of contract), your consent (Art. 6 para. 1 lit. a GDPR) and our legitimate interest (Art. 6 para. 1 lit. f GDPR).

Involvement of Data Processors by Zurich Taxi Transfer
As far as Zurich Taxi Transfer involves third parties in its data processing, e.g. technical service providers or other Zurich Taxi Transfer subsidiaries, this is always done on behalf of Zurich Taxi Transfer and only if these processors offer sufficient guarantees that suitable technical and organizational measures are carried out in such a way that the processing is in accordance with the data protection requirements, in particular Art. 28 GDPR, and guarantees the protection of the rights of the data subject. If processors are located in third countries, the data protection requirements for the transfer pursuant to Art. 44 et seq. GDPR are complied with in each case. As a rule, the appropriate guarantees in third countries are established by means of an adequacy decision (Art. 45 para. 3 GDPR) or the agreement of standard contractual clauses (see Art. 46 para. 2 c) GDPR in conjunction with Art. 93 para. 2 GDPR).
