Travel ID operators are not responsible for loss or damage incurred by you as a result of a culpable failure to notify or culpably delayed notification until the time of receipt of the notification.

However, this only applies to Miles & More websites and touchpoints if you are also a member of the Miles & More programme. In this case, your other Miles & More login data, such as your service card number and PIN, continue to be valid.

When you log into a website or other touch point of a Travel ID operator, you are generally automatically logged into the websites or touch points of other Travel ID operators without having to re-enter your login details.

You have the option of selecting a permanent login. If you select this option, you will remain logged in with your profile until you actively log out again via “Logout”. Please note that this is also the case if you log in using a public computer and select a “permanent login” there.

You can delete your Travel ID profile at any time in the Travel ID profile management section. Deletion of your Travel ID profile will terminate the contractual relationship between you and us regarding the use of Travel ID. However, this will not affect any other participation in the Miles & More programme. On the other hand, if you end your membership of the Miles & More programme, the contractual relationship between you and us via your use of Travel ID is also terminated.

We reserve the right to block or delete your Travel ID profile at any time without giving reasons or in the case specified in Section 3 of these Terms and Conditions of Use and in the event of a breach of these Terms and Conditions of Use, until this is rectified.

The functionalities of Travel ID are continuously being developed. We reserve the right to make changes or improvements to the functionality or Terms and Conditions of Use of Travel ID at any time and without prior notice, as far as these may be deemed reasonable for you.

We also reserve the right to present changes to these Terms and Conditions of Use at any time. We will notify you of the proposed changes in text form, for example by email, at least four weeks prior to the proposed effective date of such changes.

The changes offered to you will only come into effect if you agree to them as follows:

• If it is a material change, we will ask for your express consent to this change. A material change is a change to these Terms and Conditions of Use (in particular to the provisions concerning the type and general scope of the agreed services or the term and termination) in our favour that would significantly shift the previously agreed relationship between service and remuneration to your disadvantage, or would be equivalent to the conclusion of a completely new contract.
• If a proposed change is not a material change, your consent will be deemed to have been given unless you have expressly rejected the change in text form (e.g. by email) to us before the proposed effective date. In the event of such changes, we will inform you of your right to reject the changes in advance in the notification proposing the changes, the deadline for doing so and the consequences of missing this deadline.

A change to these Terms and Conditions of Use due to a change in the law, a final court decision or an injunction does not constitute a material change.

The Travel ID contract runs for an indefinite period and can be terminated by you without notice (e.g., by deleting your Travel ID profile or by notification by email) and by us with two weeks’ notice. In this case your Travel ID profile will be deleted. The deletion of your Travel ID profile has no effect on any Miles & More membership in this case. If you terminate your Miles & More membership, your contractual relationship via your Travel ID also ends automatically.

You can also activate the Miles & More programme directly during the registration process for Travel ID on the websites of Lufthansa Group airlines. The Miles & More terms and conditions of participation also apply in this case, in addition to these Terms and Conditions of Use.

This is the only way in which we can ensure that you can log into all websites and other touch points of Travel ID operators, and that we can manage your data in its entirety. Likewise, this is the only way we can ensure that you only receive the communication you wish and that the different profile details do not contradict each other.

Please note that if you cancel your membership of the Miles & More programme, your Travel ID profile will be deleted at the same time. Participation in the Miles & More programme remains unaffected by termination of the Travel ID contract. However, in this case, the option to log in to the Miles & More member account using the email address and password stored for the Travel ID service shall no longer be available.

Companies of the Lufthansa Group place great importance on data security and use technical and organisational measures to protect your data against accidental or deliberate manipulation, loss, destruction or unauthorised access. Our security measures are kept up-to-date at all times as new technology develops. Measures that the individual Travel ID operators use to secure the data they store can be found in their respective Privacy Policies.

Your Travel ID is generally available to you 24 hours a day. This timeframe excludes system and programme maintenance periods. These may result in usage restrictions, but we shall do our best to keep them to a minimum. There is no entitlement to the use of Travel ID.

In the event of loss or damage that you incur in connection with the use of Travel ID by a Travel ID operator or its respective agents, the following applies: Liability is unlimited in the case of wilful intent or gross negligence and where a guarantee exists. Liability in the event of injury to life, body or health is also unlimited in cases of minor negligence. In the event of a minor negligent breach of material contractual obligations, liability shall be limited to the property damage and financial loss attributable to this in the amount of the foreseeable loss or damage as it typically occurs. A material contractual obligation is an obligation whose fulfilment makes the proper use of Travel ID possible in the first place, and on whose fulfilment the member may reasonably rely.

Any further liability for compensation is excluded, other than for claims under the German Product Liability Act.

To the extent that we are liable under these Terms and Conditions of Use, Lufthansa Group airlines and Miles & More GmbH are jointly and severally liable as the Travel ID operators.

If you create a Travel ID profile, we collect and process your personal data on the basis of the consent you have given or on a legal basis which we request as part of the registration process, which you may voluntarily add to later or which is generated as part of the use of Travel ID, and if your Travel ID profile is linked to your Miles & More profile.

Please note our ​Travel ID Privacy Policy in this respect.
