For Code Share services on flights operated by another Carrier, in such event the operating Carrier conditions of carriage shall apply to such transportation. Those rules are incorporated herein by reference and form a part of these Conditions of Carriage. For the conditions of carriage of MS Code Share partners we refer you to their websites or your travel agency . Information about EGYPTAIR 's Code Share Partners is available on EGYPTAIR.com. You should review the rules for flights operated by another carrier under a Code Share agreement and familiarize yourself with such things as flight check-in time limits, requirements and policies regarding unaccompanied minors, carriage of animals, refusal to transport, oxygen services, irregular operations, denied boarding compensation and baggage allowance/ acceptance among others.

Attribution tools use technologies such as Cookies, web beacons and fingerprinting:

At various places on our websites and mobile applications we have implemented social network/ social media features. These include:

Links to EGYPTAIR websites in social networks
“Like” or “Share” buttons
Embedded content, such as videos

Such embedded content may be used by the providers of the above features to identify you, the source of a visit, and how you use the websites of EGYPTAIR. This may, depending on the circumstances, occur during your visit to our websites.
When you use the recommendation functions, this communicates the URL of the respective EGYPTAIR website to the social network you have picked. A number of networks then immediately supplement the link with an excerpt of the content provided by EGYPTAIR. With most social networks, you are asked for confirmation before this is saved or forwarded.

We have integrated social media tools from the following providers into our websites:

Please note that the obligation to comply with applicable data protection law rests primarily on these providers, and EGYPTAIR has only limited knowledge or influence on how social networks deal with the information they collect through their services. For more information on how these providers process personal data and your rights and options in this regard, we refer to the privacy notices of these organisations.

The recipients of your personal data may include, depending on the circumstances:

Other airlines when you travel on itineraries that require multiple flights on multiple airlines (“interlining”), or when you book a codeshare flight in which two or more member airlines share the same flight.
Reservation system providers (sometimes known as a Global Distribution System or GDS) who facilitate the transmission of booking information from your travel agent to the carrier.

In case of such a transfer EGYPTAIR will, depending on the circumstances, transmit this data only to perform a contract with you or a contract that is beneficial to you, to comply with specific legal requirements, or on the basis of data protection safeguards such as the “standard data protection clauses” provided by the EU.

3.How long will we store your personal data?

EGYPTAIR is committed to storing your personal data for no longer than necessary for the purpose for which it was collected. For example, where you book a flight with us we will keep the information related to your booking so that we can fulfil the specific travel arrangements you have made. After that we will keep the information for a period which enables us to handle or respond to any complaints, queries or concerns relating to the booking. Furthermore, we store your personal data in accordance with the retention period imposed by applicable law and regulations.
Each retention period depends on the purpose for which the data is being processed by us, and takes into account regulations which impose specific retention periods for certain categories of data. We will actively review the information we hold and delete it securely when there is no longer a legal, business or customer need for it to be retained.

4. Your rights

4.1 Data subjects rights

In relation to EGYPTAIR processing your personal data you may have specific rights under the EU General Data Protection Regulation (“GDPR”). The below explanation applies only to you if the GDPR applies to you and the respective data processing activity.

You have the rights to ask us for further information on how we process your personal data; for a copy of your personal data; to correct, delete or restrict (stop any active) processing of your personal data; and to obtain the personal data you provide to us for a contract or with your consent in a structured, machine readable format, and to ask us to share (port) this data to another controller if such a sharing mechanism is available.

In addition, you can object to the processing of your personal data in some circumstances (in particular, where we do not have to process the data to meet a contractual or other legal requirement, or where we are using the data for direct marketing).
These rights may be limited, for example if fulfilling your request would reveal personal data about another person, or if you ask us to delete information which we are required by law to keep or have compelling legitimate interests in keeping. To exercise any of these rights, you can get in touch with us – or our data protection representative – using the details set out at the beginning of this policy. If you have unresolved concerns and if the GDPR applies to you, you have the right to complain to an EU data protection authority where you live, work or where you believe a breach may have occurred.

4.2 Your right to withdraw any consent you have given

If you have not paid for the Ticket prior to the specified ticketing time limit, as advised by us or our Authorized Agent, we may cancel your reservation.

4.3 PERSONAL DATA

Where you give us consent we might send you direct marketing in relation to our relevant products and services, or other products and services provided by us, our affiliates and carefully selected partners. On other occasions where we ask you for consent we will use the data for the purpose which we explain at that time.
Wherever we rely on your consent you will always be able to withdraw that consent, although we may have other legal grounds for processing your data for other purposes. In some cases we are able to send you direct marketing without your consent, where we rely on our legitimate interests. You have an absolute right to opt-out of direct marketing, or profiling we carry out for direct marketing, at any time. You can do this by following the instructions in the communication provided. You can also alter your preferences at any time in the 'Newsletter services' section or by contacting us at [email protected].

We work hard to handle your information responsibly. If you are unhappy about the way we do this, or if you have any questions about this policy, please contact us, using the email address [email protected] or the contact information provided in section 1.
We hope that we will be able to resolve any concerns you may have.
