3. Personal Data We May Process

  • Contact details such as name, email address and phone number.
  • Booking information such as pickup and return location, rental dates, vehicle category, insurance choices and special requests.
  • Driver details required by rental partners, including driving licence information, age confirmation and identity document details where needed for the rental agreement.
  • Technical data such as IP address, browser, device type, pages visited, referral source and approximate location.
  • Payment confirmation data. We do not store full card numbers; payment processing is handled by secure third-party providers.

4. Why We Use Personal Data

  • To provide search, comparison and booking functionality.
  • To send booking confirmations, vouchers, pickup instructions and service messages.
  • To transfer necessary booking data to rental companies and booking partners so they can prepare the vehicle handover.
  • To answer support enquiries sent to book@carrentalzurichairport.com.
  • To protect the website from fraud, misuse and technical abuse.
  • To analyse site performance and improve content, usability and booking flows.

5. Legal Bases

Where GDPR or similar data protection laws apply, we rely on performance of a contract for booking services, legitimate interests for support and website improvement, legal obligation for accounting or fraud prevention requirements, and consent where a specific consent mechanism is presented.

6. Booking Partners and Third Parties

Our website includes a DiscoverCars booking widget and Yandex.Metrika analytics. When you interact with the widget, your data may be processed by DiscoverCars and relevant rental suppliers under their own terms and privacy notices. Yandex.Metrika helps us understand website usage, clicks and technical performance.

We do not sell personal data. We only share data when needed to operate the booking service, comply with law, prevent fraud, or support a request you make.

7. Cookies and Tracking

Cookies and similar technologies may be used for essential site operation, booking widget functionality, analytics, attribution and security. You can manage cookies in your browser settings. Blocking some cookies may affect booking widget availability or analytics accuracy.

8. International Transfers

Some service providers may process data outside Switzerland, the EU or the EEA. Where required, we rely on appropriate safeguards such as contractual protections, adequacy decisions or equivalent lawful transfer mechanisms.

9. Data Retention

Booking-related records are retained only for as long as reasonably necessary for reservation support, accounting, legal compliance and dispute handling. Email enquiries may be kept for support history. Analytics data may be stored in aggregated or pseudonymised form.

10. Data Security

We use reasonable technical and organisational measures to protect data against unauthorised access, loss, misuse and alteration. No online service can guarantee absolute security, but we limit access to personal data and review our processing practices.

11. Your Rights

Depending on your location, you may have the right to request access, correction, deletion, restriction, objection, portability and withdrawal of consent. To exercise your rights, contact us at book@carrentalzurichairport.com. We may need to verify your identity before processing the request.

12. Children

Our services are intended for adults who can legally rent or book a vehicle. We do not knowingly collect personal data from children.

13. External Links

Our site may link to Google Maps, DiscoverCars, rental company websites and other third-party resources. Their privacy practices are controlled by those third parties, not by Car Rental Zurich Airport.

14. Changes to This Policy

We may update this Privacy Policy when our services, partners, laws or technical practices change. The updated version will be posted on this page with a revised date.
