2. Data Collected
NON-IDENTIFIABLE INFORMATION
The first type of information is un-identified and non-identifiable information pertaining to a user(s), which may be made available or gathered via your use of the Services and interaction with the website (“Non-personal Information”). We are not able to identify the user from the Non-personal Information that is collected.
In order to enhance the functionality of the Services and to provide you with a better user experience, we collect technical information transmitted by your computer (through the use of third party analytical cookies), including certain software and hardware information (e.g. the type of browser and operating system your device uses, language preference, access time and the domain name of the website from which you linked to the Services; etc.).
We also collect information about your use of the Services, such as user activity (e.g. pages viewed, the amount of time spent on particular pages, online browsing, clicks, actions, etc.). This information is collected for research and analytics purposes about your use of the Services.
Unless you are making Reservations, we aggregate, anonymize or de-identify the information collected by the Services or via other means so that the information cannot, on its own, personally identify you. Our use and disclosure of such aggregated or de-identified information is not subject to any restrictions under this Privacy Policy, and we may disclose it to others without limitation and for any purpose.
IDENTIFIABLE INFORMATION
The second type of information is individually identifiable information, namely information that identifies an individual or may with reasonable effort identify an individual (“Personal Information”). This may be collected when you subscribe for our email newsletters by providing us with your email address on the website, when you post a comment including your name and email address in response to one of our news pieces and when you make Reservations. Personal Information that you voluntarily provide is sometimes referred to in this Privacy Policy as “User Content.”
We may also collect specific types of connection details and information with respect to your device and hardware, such as IP addresses. Collection of IP addresses is particularly important to safeguard any information you provide with respect to Reservations.
If we combine Personal Information with Non-personal Information, the combined information will be treated as Personal Information for as long as it remains combined.

Ticksy adheres to the EU/US “Privacy Shield” and you can see their privacy policy here: Ticksy Privacy Policy.
