Video Recording Policy
1. Access to the App or Video Web Service / Use of the App or Video Web Service / Accompanying Persons
The use of the app and video service is free of charge. The app can be downloaded from the respective app store (see section 5: Usage Requirements) after accepting these Terms and Conditions. Alternatively, the web app can be accessed via a link on the Captivr homepage.
The user agrees to provide truthful and complete information about their identity, age, and, if applicable, contact details when using the video service, to the extent that the use of the app and video recordings requires such input.
Recording accompanying persons is permitted if the accompanying persons are at least 16 years old. The user is obligated to provide necessary details about accompanying persons if they are to be included in the video recording and to carry out the required measures for the accompanying persons (e.g., scanning the associated QR code). The user is also responsible for informing the accompanying persons about these Terms and Conditions and the privacy information, and providing them with these documents.
The user may uninstall the app from their device at any time. After uninstalling the app, Captivr will continue to store data required for contract performance, such as the "serial number" assigned by Captivr and stored on the user's device (see section 5.1 below) or any login data. Other personal data of the user will be deleted, unless required for the agreed use of video recordings or due to existing legal retention periods.
2. Functions of the App or Video Web Service / Procedure for Video Recording and Its Use / Conclusion of the Video Purchase Agreement, Right of Withdrawal
2.1 Download
The app or web app assigns a Captivr serial number, which is stored on the device and used for the video service. To install and use the app or web app, inputs regarding age and agreement to these Terms and Conditions, the privacy information, and general consent to desired video recordings are required. Consent to location data collection must also be given to prevent abuse.
We also reserve the right to implement user registration in the future, asking for the following data:
- Email address
- Name
2.2 Video Recording
To record a video, the user must open the app or web app on their mobile device before the ride and scan the QR code located in the boarding area of the ride, which contains information about the user’s seat. If an accompanying person is also to be filmed, their associated QR code must also be scanned. The user will then be prompted by the app or web app on their device to consent to the video recording and, if applicable, confirm that the accompanying person also agrees to the video recording. The video recording will only start once the necessary confirmations have been provided. Individuals who have not provided confirmation will be pixelated in the video for anonymization. Instructions from the ride staff must be followed if applicable.
2.3 Provision of the Video Recording
After the video recording is completed, the video file will be made available for retrieval. The user has the option to purchase the video for a fee within 2 weeks.
2.4 Purchase of the Video Recording, Conclusion of the Video Purchase Agreement, and Right of Withdrawal
The user can purchase the video file. After the video file is completed, the user will receive a notification on their mobile device that the file is ready and can be purchased within 2 weeks according to the valid price list available in the app. The user can then agree to purchase the file in the app or web app by clicking a checkbox "Order for a Fee." After clicking the checkbox, the order details will be displayed, which must be confirmed with another click.
With the second click, the purchase agreement for the video recording with Captivr is concluded. The user will receive an order confirmation.
With the second click, the user will be redirected to a payment service provider to pay the purchase price. Alternatively, payment using a discount code provided by the attraction operator or Captivr is possible.
After payment, the user will receive a link on their device to access the video file. Both viewing and downloading of the video file are possible.
To view and/or download the video file, the user’s device must meet the following technical requirements:
- iOS operating system version 13 or higher
- Android operating system version 4.4 W KitKat API Level 20

The file will be stored by Captivr in a secure cloud for one year. Extended storage of a purchased video file is possible for an additional fee. If a video file is not purchased within 2 weeks of notification of its availability, the file will be deleted.
The user has a right of withdrawal according to section 6 below, if they are a consumer. Influencers, in their capacity as (commercial) influencers, are not considered consumers, and therefore the right of withdrawal for consumers does not apply to them.
