5. How long do we keep your information?
We keep your personal data as long as necessary to fulfil our contractual obligations to you and if necessary in accordance with statutory storage time.

6. Sharing your data
Vy Flygbussarna AB is the sole owner of the data collected on the website, via email or via telephone. Your personally identifiable data will not be sold, transferred or shared with any other company for any purpose without your consent.
We do not sell, purchase, or otherwise transfer personally identifiable data to third parties. Exceptions apply for trusted parties who help us to run our website and our company, with the requirement that these parties agree to keep the data confidential.
We consider it to be necessary to share data in order to investigate, prevent or take action against illegal activities, suspected fraud, situations that pose a potential risk to a person’s physical safety, breach of our terms of service or other situations when the law so requires.
Other information (non-personal data) such as visitor statistics however, may be distributed to third parties for marketing, advertising or other purposes.
7. Data protection
We protect your personal data through a series of security measures. We use encryption methods to protect data transmitted online. Only those employees who are to perform a specific task (e.g. billing or customer service) have access to personally identifiable data. The computers/servers used to store personally identifiable data are located in a secure environment.
Your password protects your user account on “Mina sidor” [My pages], so we recommend that you use a unique and strong password, restrict access to your computer and browser and log out once you have used the service.
8. Use of cookies
Cookies are small files that a website or service provider sends to a computer’s hard drive via the browser (if you allow) and that make the site recognise your browser and can retrieve and remember certain information. We use cookies for two different purposes:
- Cookies improve the user experience on our website by, for example, identifying returning visitors and certain relevant information. Our use of these cookies is not linked to personally identifiable data. You can choose to disable cookies in your browser and/or delete stored cookies in your browser. Please note that blocking cookies can affect the functionality of the website.
- We use cookies for advertising purposes and in cooperation with third parties, so that we can identify and target relevant ads to people who, according to different algorithms, are inclined to make a purchase. You can block cookies from third parties in your browser.
9. Cancel email subscription
We use your email address primarily for sending out your e-ticket. In connection with your ticket purchase, you may accept newsletters from us with other information. If you wish to cancel your subscription to our newsletter, you will find a link at the bottom of the mailing where you can unsubscribe.
10. Your rights
You are entitled to request your personal data and the information we have saved about you at any time. For example, the data may have been saved in connection with a ticket purchase, customer service contact or newsletter subscription.
