Omnichannel – Chat

Our website uses a chatbot as well as a live chat from the Microsoft Dynamics 365 module, Omnichannel for Customer Service (https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/dynamics365/customer-service/introduction-omnichannel). This is provided by Microsoft Cooperation, 1 Microsoft Way, 98052 Redmond, USA.

The Chatbot is a dialogue system that can automatically answer your questions using routines and rules. If it is not possible for the chatbot to find a suitable answer, a live chat with an ASFINAG employee can be established. When the chatbot is started, the following data is processed:

  • Date and time of access
  • Duration of access
  • Device type, browser, operating system
  • Visitor language
  • Contents of the transmitted chats
  • Automatic mood recognition (sentiment analysis)

Depending on the course of the conversation with our chatbot or our employees, personal data may arise in the chat, which will be entered by you. We have configured our systems to process and store your data primarily in the European Union. In order to provide a stable service and to improve and further develop the chat bot, it cannot be ruled out that your IP address may be transmitted to Microsoft servers in the USA.

The legal basis for data processing and data forwarding is your consent in accordance with Art. 6 para. 1 lit. a GDPR. This information is collected before the cookies are set and the listed data is transmitted. The purpose of the processing is to provide our customers with even better service and support. The chat function enables you to have a conversation with an ASFINAG employee in real time and thus contributes towards customer satisfaction. You have the right to revoke your consent at any time. You can delete the cookies at any time via the settings in your browser. The legality of the processing up to the time of your revocation shall not be affected by this.

The chat histories with the chatbot are identified by means of an anonymous ID and stored for 90 days. The duration and time of the communication are processed for statistical purposes and to optimise the service.

Evaluations in the context of chats with our employees are carried out on the basis of your explicit, voluntary and informed consent pursuant to Art. 6 para. 1 lit a GDPR. Your consent may be revoked at any time at [email protected].

Alternatively, you are also welcome to contact the ASFINAG Service Center by telephone or via our contact form. Further information is available at www.asfinag.at/en/contact/.

The chat logs of the live chats (incl. previous history with the chatbot) count as corporate communication and are stored for three years for archiving purposes.

Teads Universal Pixel

In order to carry out targeted advertising campaigns, such as advertising the digital vignette, we use the "Teads Universal Pixel" technology from Teads Schweiz GmbH (Teads.tv) in the ASFINAG Toll Shop. In order to be able to show you personalised advertising content, the Teads Universal Pixel is processed on your end device or in the browser you use.

The Teads Universal Pixel collects the source of the device, the browser type, the operating system, the approximate location, the website accessed, the user's interactions with advertisements and the user's IP address, the last octet of which is deleted for anonymisation. This data is used across devices to filter an ad campaign by, among other things, user interests and location, and to prevent a user from being shown the same ad again. This anonymised data is statistically analysed for internal business analysis. There is no exchange of personal data with Teads Schweiz GmbH or Teads.tv. Teads.tv does not collect or process any information that allows a specific person to be directly identified.

The legal basis for the data processing is your consent via the cookie banner in accordance with Art. 6 para. 1 lit. a GDPR.

You can delete your consent to the display of interest-based advertising by the Teads Universal Pixel at any time via the settings in your browser. The legality of the processing up to the time of your revocation shall not be affected by this.

The Teads Universal Pixel will be stored until revoked.

Dynatrace records click paths, JavaScript errors, browser types and geographic regions, but does not record the contents of fields such as payment data.

Collected data will be deleted automatically after 35 days.

Information on the rights of the data subjects

According to the General Data Protection Regulation, data subjects have the following rights:

1. Right to receive information

Each data subject has the right – after verifying its identity – to request information from ASFINAG as to whether its personal data is being processed. If this is the case, the data subject shall have the right to obtain further information on the purposes and legal basis of the processing, the categories of data concerning it, the data sources, the recipients of its data, the (non-)existence of an automated decision-making process including profiling, instructions regarding its rights and obligations, and a copy of the personal data.

2. Right to rectification and erasure

If the personal data is inaccurate or incomplete, the data subject may request the rectification, completion or erasure of data relating to it as part of the processing purposes, if necessary by means of a supplementary declaration. In particular, ASFINAG is obliged to erase personal data if the erasure is prescribed by law or if any existing consent for processing has been revoked, if there is no further legal basis for processing, or if personal data is no longer necessary for the purposes for which it had originally been collected.

However, the right to erasure does not exist if the processing is necessary to fulfil a legal obligation of ASFINAG or to perform a task that is in the public interest or that is performed in the exercise of official authority or is required to assert, exercise or defend legal claims.

3. Right to restriction of processing

Every data subject has the right to have the processing of its personal data restricted. One of the following conditions must be fulfilled for this:

  • The accuracy of the personal data is contested by the data subject for a period of time long enough to allow ASFINAG to verify the accuracy of the personal data;
  • The processing is unlawful and the data subject rejects the deletion of the personal data and instead requests the restriction of the use of the personal data;
  • ASFINAG no longer needs the personal data for processing purposes and, at the same time, the data subject needs it for the assertion, exercise or defence of legal claims;
  • If the data subject has objected to the processing, until it has been established whether the legitimate reasons of ASFINAG outweigh those of the data subject.

However, limited data may still be used to protect the rights of another person, for important public interest or to assert, exercise or defend ASFINAG's legal claims.

4. Right to data transferability

The data subject shall have the right to receive the personal data concerning it that it has provided to ASFINAG in a structured, conventional and machine-readable format or – if technically possible – to have such data transferred to another responsible party. However, this right only exists if the processing is based on the legal basis of a contract or the consent of the data subject.

5. Right to object

The data subject shall have the right to object at any time to the processing of personal data concerning it on grounds relating to its particular situation. This right shall apply only if the processing

  • is necessary for the performance of a task that is in the public interest, or
  • takes place in the exercise of official authority vested in ASFINAG, or
  • is necessary to safeguard the legitimate interests of ASFINAG or a third party.

ASFINAG will then no longer process the personal data unless it can prove compelling reasons worthy of protection for the processing, which outweigh the interests, rights and freedoms of the data subject, or the processing serves to assert, exercise or defend legal claims.

6. Right to object to direct marketing

Where personal data is processed for direct marketing purposes, the data subject has the right to object at any time to the processing of personal data concerning said data subject for the purposes of such marketing. If the data subject objects to processing for direct marketing purposes, the personal data will no longer be processed for these purposes.

7. Right to appeal to the supervisory authority

Every data subject has the right to file a complaint with the data protection authority, Barichgasse 40-42, 1030 Vienna, [email protected].
