We regard it as our priority task to maintain the confidentiality of the personal data submitted by you and to protect them from unauthorized access. Hence, we take utmost care and apply latest safety standards for guaranteeing maximum security of your personal data.
As a company under private law we are subject to the stipulations of the European General Data Protection Regulation GDPR and the data protection regulations of your EU Member State. We have taken technical and organizational measures for securing that the data protection provisions will be observed both by us and by our external service providers.
GIVAG AG saves your data in a protected and secure operating environment in a data center in the European Economic Area (EEA) or in Switzerland.
Please note that we may update this privacy policy at any time. Therefore, we suggest that you check this website regularly for up-to-date information on our data protection practices.
2. Access Data
If you use the website for information purposes only, i.e. if you do not register or otherwise provide us with information, we only collect the personal data that your browser transmits to our server. If you wish to view our website, we collect the following data, which is technically necessary for us to display our website to you and to guarantee stability and security:
- IP address
- Date and time of request
- Time zone difference from Greenwich Mean Time (GMT)
- Content of the request (specific page)
- Request status/HTTP status code
- The respective amount of data transmitted
- The website making the request
- Browser

- Language and version of the browser software
These data are used for monitoring and managing performance and reliability
of the web servers. The analysis of the data is in the legitimate interest of GIVAG AG. The legal basis is Article 6(1) sentence 1 lit. f GDPR.
3. Cookies
In addition to the aforementioned data, cookies are stored on your computer when you use our website. Cookies are small text files that are stored on your hard disk in association with the browser you are using and through which the body which sets the cookie transmits certain information. Cookies cannot run programmes or deliver viruses to your computer. They serve to make the Internet offering more user-friendly and effective.
Our website uses the following types of cookies, the scope and functionality of which are explained below:
a) Transient cookies are automatically deleted when you close the browser. This especially includes session cookies. These store a so-called session ID which assigns the various requests made by your browser during the joint session. This allows your computer to be recognized when you return to our site. Session cookies are deleted when you log out or close the browser.
b) Persistent cookies are automatically deleted after a specified period, which may differ depending on the cookie in question. You can delete the cookies by going to your browser's security settings at any time.
c) Third-party cookies are not stored by GIVAG AG, but by third parties on the user’s computer. They can be read during a new website’s visit on the computer of the sales partner. In contrast to cookies used by GIVAG AG itself, these are service providers mostly collecting advertising-relevant information about users.
You can configure your browser settings according to your needs and, for example, refuse to accept third-party cookies or all cookies. If you do not wish the Flash cookies to be processed, you must install an appropriate add-on, e.g. "Better Privacy" for Mozilla Firefox (https://addons.mozilla.org/de/firefox/addon/betterprivacy/) or the Adobe Flash killer cookie for Google Chrome. You can prevent the use of HTML5 storage objects by using the private mode in your browser. We also recommend to regularly deleting your cookies and your browser history manually. Please note that if you deactivate cookies you may not be able to use all functions of this website.
The use of cookies is in the legitimate interest of GIVAG AG for the purpose of optimization of our offer. The legal basis is Article 6(1) sentence 1 lit. f GDPR.
4. Establishing Contact
In the course of an enquiry through our contact form, only the personal data communicated by you will be collected and processed. The data submitted by you in the course of an enquiry shall exclusively be collected, processed and used for handling your requests.
This also includes the transfer to the Internet provider commissioned with the provision of our Internet presence. In this context, GIVAG AG follows the principle of data minimization. It only communicates the data absolutely necessary for the specific processing. Furthermore, the data is used for conducting the communication with you. GIVAG AG shall not pass on your personal data to third parties without your express consent that you can revoke at any time. GIVAG AG shall store these data until revocation of the consent.
This data processing is based on Art. 6(1) sentence 1 lit. a GDPR in conjunction with your given consent.
5. Data Transfer to Third Parties
The transfer of customer data to third parties is only to the extent that is necessary for the contract. We also use external service providers (processors) for the execution of the contract. Separate contract data processing contracts have been concluded with the service providers to ensure the protection of your personal data.
For the purpose of processing a ticket purchase, your payment details will be collected by TicketPay. In this regard, we refer to the Privacy Policy of TicketPay: https://manage.ticketpay.de/documents/agb/tpeu_privacy_en.pdf.
This data processing is based on Art. 6 (1) sentence 1 lit. b GDPR for the execution of the purchase contract.
6. Use of Google Analytics
This website uses Google Analytics, a web analytics service operated by Google Inc., 1600 Amphitheatre Parkway, Mountain View, CA 94043, USA. Google Analytics uses so-called "cookies". These are text files that are stored on your computer and that allow an analysis of the use of the website by you. The information generated by the cookie about your use of this website is usually transmitted to a Google server in the United States and stored there.
IP anonymization
We have activated the IP anonymization feature on this website. Your IP address will be shortened by Google within the European Union or other parties to the Agreement on the European Economic Area prior to transmission to the United States. Only in exceptional cases is the full IP address sent to a Google server in the United States and shortened there. Google will use this information on behalf of the operator of this website to evaluate your use of the website, to compile reports on website activity, and to provide other services regarding website activity and internet usage for the website operator. The IP address transmitted by your browser as part of Google Analytics will not be merged with any other data held by Google.
Browser plugin
You can prevent these cookies being stored by selecting the appropriate settings in your browser. However, we wish to point out that doing so may mean you will not be able to enjoy the full functionality of this website. You can also prevent the data generated by cookies about your use of the website (including your IP address) from being passed on to Google, as well as the processing of these data by Google, by downloading and installing the browser plugin available at the following link: https://tools.google.com/dlpage/gaoptout?hl=en
Objecting to the collection of data
You can prevent the collection of your data by Google Analytics by clicking on the following link. An Opt-Out Cookie will be set to prevent your data from being collected on future visits to this site: Disable Google Analytics.
For more information about how Google Analytics handles user data, see Google's privacy policy: support.google.com/analytics/answer/6004245.
Outsourced data processing
We have entered into an agreement with Google for the outsourcing of our data processing and fully implement the strict requirements of the EU data protection authorities when using Google Analytics.
Please note, however, that the ECJ declared on 16 July 2020 the adequacy decision of the EU Commission on the EU-US Privacy Shield as invalid (C-311/18; http://curia.europa.eu/juris/liste.jsf?num=C-311/18).
Google Analytics cookies are stored based on Art. 6 (1) sentence 1 lit. f GDPR. GIVAG AG has a legitimate interest in analyzing user behavior to optimize both its website and its advertising.
7. Social Media Plugins
We currently use the following social media plug-ins: [Facebook, Google+, Twitter, Instagram, LinkedIn, YouTube] We use the so-called two-click solution. This means that when you visit our site, no personal data is initially passed on to the providers of the plug-ins. You can recognize the provider of the plug-in by the marking on the box by its initial letter or logo. We give you the opportunity to communicate directly with the provider of the plug-in via the button. Only if you click on the marked box and thereby activate it, the plug-in provider will receive the information that you have accessed the corresponding website of our online offer. In addition, the data mentioned under § 3 of this declaration (Cookies) will be transmitted. In the case of Facebook and Xing, according to the respective providers in Germany, the IP address is anonymized immediately after it is collected. By activating the plug-in, personal data is therefore transmitted from you to the respective plug-in provider and stored there (with US providers in the USA). Since the plug-in provider collects data in particular via cookies, we recommend that you delete all cookies via your browser's security settings before clicking on the greyed-out box.
We have no influence on the collected data and data processing procedures, nor are we aware of the full scope of data collection, the purposes of processing, the storage periods. We also have no information about the deletion of the collected data by the plug-in provider.
The plug-in provider stores the data collected about you in user profiles and uses them for the purposes of advertising, market research and/or demand-oriented design of its website. Such an evaluation is carried out in particular (also for users who are not logged in) for the purpose of presenting demand-based advertising and to inform other users of the social network about your activities on our website. You have the right to object to the creation of these user profiles, whereby you must contact the respective plug-in provider to exercise this right. Through the plug-ins we offer you the possibility to interact with the social networks and other users, so that we can improve our offer and make it more interesting for you as a user.
The data is passed on regardless of whether you have an account with the plug-in provider and are logged in there. If you are logged in with the plug-in provider, the data we collect from you will be directly assigned to your existing account with the plug-in provider. If you click the activated button and, for example, link the page, the plug-in provider will also save this information in your user account and publicly share it with your contacts. We recommend that you log out regularly after using a social network, but especially before activating the button, as you can then avoid being assigned to your profile with the plug-in provider.
Further information on the purpose and scope of data collection and processing by the plug-in provider can be found in the data protection declarations of these providers, which are provided below. There, you will also find further information on your rights and settings to protect your privacy.

The purpose of the procedure is to prove your registration and, if necessary, to clarify possible misuse of your personal data.
Mandatory information for the transmission of the newsletter is solely your e-mail address and your name. After your confirmation, we will store this data for the purpose of sending you the newsletter. We store and process your data until you revoke your consent.
You can revoke your consent to the receiving of the newsletter at any time and unsubscribe from the newsletter. You can declare the revocation by clicking on the link provided in each newsletter e-mail or by sending a message to the contact details stated in the imprint.

jQuery / ajax.googleapis.com
On our websites we use the JavaScript library jQuery. This library primarily enables modern design of our websites. To increase the loading speed of our websites, we use Google's CDN (Content Delivery Network) to load this library. There's a good chance that you've already downloaded jQuery by visiting another Google CDN website. If so, your browser can use the cached copy. If your browser does not cache your copy or for any other reason downloads the file from the Google CDN, your IP address will be sent to Google while connecting to the Google server. If you are also logged in to Google with an existing user account while visiting our websites, Google may also be able to assign the visit of our websites to your user behavior. In addition, Google may send additional cookies to your browser. We have no influence on this procedure and also do not receive any information from Google about the transmitted content. For details, see: https://developers.google.com/speed/libraries/#jquery.
BootstrapCDN
On our site, Java Script Code is recharged by NetDNA, LLC., 3575, Cahuenga Blvd Suite 630, Los Angeles, CA 90068, USA (hereafter: Bootstrap CDN). If you have enabled JavaScript in your browser and have not installed a Java Script Blocker, your browser may change your personal information, e.g. submit your IP address to Bootstrap CDN. We do not know what data Bootstrap CDN associates with the data received and for what purposes Bootstrap CDN uses that data.
To use the functions of Bootstrap CDN it is necessary to store your IP address. This information is usually transmitted to a Bootstrap CDN server and stored there. We have no influence on this data transfer.
More information on handling user data can be found in Bootstrap CDN's privacy policy: https://www.bootstrapcdn.com/privacy-policy/ .
