Data Controller.

The personal data collected will be processed by MOVELIA TECNOLOGÍAS, S.L. (Tax ID B-83038539, Avenida Manoteras nº38, bloque D Planta Baja, número 010. CP 28050 Madrid, Spain) and by the corresponding transport company depending on the transport service contracted on this website/app, acting in both cases as Data Controllers.

Users can provide personal information voluntarily either through specific forms found on different sections of the website or app, or by means of the email addresses made available for this purpose. By providing your personal information through any of the forms and email addresses on this website/app, you accept and consent to the processing of said information under the terms indicated in this privacy policy.

For any questions regarding the processing of your personal data, please contact the company’s Data Protection Officer by emailing [email protected].

Type of personal data processed.

In general, the company processes the personal data the user provides when hiring the selected transport service, collecting the personal data of the buyer and/or the personal data of the passenger through the forms for providing data online, via call centres, or any sales channels made available by the company.

However, on many occasions our customers’ personal data is provided to us by third parties, such as travel agencies, or by other natural persons who request or hire, on your behalf, the products and/or services that we offer through our different sales channels.

The categories of data processed are usually identifying data such as name, surname, ID card, date of birth, email address, contact number, payment details and purchase history. In very specific cases, and depending on the intended use and purpose of your data, we may collect information on personal characteristics, for example, when you request the special assistance service (PRM); sensitive personal data, for example, when you request the discount for people with intellectual or developmental disabilities; or data relating to your status as a large family, all with a view to confirming your eligibility for these discounts.

The personal data required on our different sales channels is necessary to be able to provide you with the hired service or attend to you properly. If you fail to provide us with the required details, the company will be unable to attend to your request, as the personal data in question is required to meet our legal and/or contractual obligations.

Purpose of personal data processing.

The collection and processing of your personal data is for the purposes detailed below:

  • To contact users;
  • To properly attend to and manage the queries, comments, incidents, and suggestions that are received;
  • To manage basic administrative tasks;
  • To effectively manage the purchasing of tickets, travel passes, and other contracted services;
  • To keep you informed, either by electronic means through a mobile device (push notifications), or by any other means provided, of personalised deals and discounts from MOVELIA or third parties that may be of interest to you. You are informed that the consent granted may be withdrawn at any time without said withdrawal affecting the lawfulness of processing undertaken prior to this. You may withdraw consent by emailing the following address: [email protected], and/or by clicking on the “unsubscribe” button in the commercial communication.
  • To control, analyse and manage situations of risk, fraud, or incidents in order to prevent potential fraud.
  • To provide additional services, improvements to our services and to the customer experience when using the website or app;
  • To perform statistical analyses of website/app visits and of user behaviour;
  • To properly manage browsing of the website;
  • To comply with any legal obligations pertaining to us and to communicate your personal data to the State Armed and Security Forces as well as any other agencies with competence in this area, if we are required to do so.
  • To correctly handle any emergency situations, disasters or force majeure, it may be necessary to communicate your personal data to institutions or agencies with competence in this area

Lawful basis.

The lawful bases for the above-mentioned processing are as follows:
To be able to contact the user (based on the contractual or pre-contractual relationship that bonds us);
To properly attend to and manage queries, comments, incidents and suggestions received (based on the contractual or pre-contractual relationship that bonds us);

To control, analyse and manage situations of risk, fraud, or incidents in order to prevent potential fraud. If we consider that a transaction may be fraudulent, this processing could result in the transaction being blocked (based on the legitimate interest of the company);

To perform statistical analyses of website/app visits and of user behaviour (based on the legitimate interest of the company);

We have balanced the interests and concluded that the company has a legitimate interest in adapting the commercial strategy and offering using the information obtained from the transactions carried out on the different sales channels, as well as in obtaining information that enables us to better know the market in which MOVELIA operates and any changes it may experience. The aim of all of this is to organise resources as efficiently as possible in the process of selling our services.
To comply with any legal obligations pertaining to us and to communicate your personal data to the State Armed and Security Forces as well as any other agencies with competence in this area, if we are required to do so (based on compliance with a legal obligation);

Recipients of personal data.

The data provided when purchasing a ticket will be stored at MOVELIA and will also be transferred to the systems of the authorised companies operating regular passenger transport lines (the transport companies offering the services contracted through the MOVELIA website/app). Both MOVELIA and the authorised companies are responsible for ensuring confidentiality under the legally required terms, in accordance with their specific policies regarding privacy.
MOVELIA will transfer the contact details required of operators of long-distance land transport, with pre-assigned seat numbers, in compliance with current legislation, to the systems of the authorised companies operating regular passenger transport lines (The Companies), for the purposes of traceability in the event of epidemic monitoring. These contact details will be stored in the systems of the corresponding authorised company operating regular passenger transport lines who is obliged to store said data and communicate it to the public health authorities in compliance with article 17 of Royal Decree-Law 21/2020, of the 9th of June, on urgent prevention, containment and coordination measures to face the health crisis caused by COVID-19 and the regulations on personal data protection.
Users’ personal data may also be communicated to the insurance entity with which the transport company has contracted the travel insurance (“SOV” in Spanish). Said communication of personal data is a mandatory requirement for executing the contract of which the user is part, as well as for complying with the legal obligations that apply to the transport company.
Should the user take out additional travel insurance, the company will communicate the personal data necessary to process said additional travel insurance. Said communication of personal data is necessary for executing the contract of which you are part.
We will not transfer your data to third parties for commercial purposes. MOVELIA will only send you commercial information offering you discounts and benefits from the company if you have agreed to receive commercial communications.
Your data will not be transferred internationally. We work with external suppliers such as technological service providers and marketing and publicity services providers, who are always required to work with servers located in the European Economic Area that guarantee an adequate level of protection for the data processed. In the event that we work with external suppliers who do not offer the same level of protection as they are located outside the European Economic Area, they will be required to supply appropriate guarantees by signing the relevant Binding Corporate Rules (BCR) in accordance with the current data protection legislation to guarantee appropriate management of your personal data, as well as the Standard Contractual Clauses adopted by the European Commission.

MOVELIA hereby guarantees that it has taken the appropriate security measures to ensure the security of the information and the confidentiality of the data that you send us over the Internet. Secure Socket Layer (SSL) technology is used for this purpose, which is a system that allows the information you send us to be encrypted, thus avoiding its reading even if it has been unlawfully intercepted.
