Press Release Minimum distancing and visitor data: CTS EVENTIM makes events in times of Corona safer with digital solutions Munich, 11 September 2020. CTS EVENTIM, one of the leading international providers of ticketing services and live entertainment, is delivering powerful software solutions to support event promoters and visitors in the battle against the coronavirus pandemic. Specially engineered functions help users comply with statutory requirements at events and protect the health of visitors. Maintaining minimum distancing and logging visitor data are the prime focus.

To ensure that visitors to events keep a minimum distance apart, CTS EVENTIM is providing a variety of options tailored to the specific needs of venues:

- In the dynamic variant, algorithms control the allocation of seats and automatically ensure compliance with minimum distancing. Seats do not need to be blocked in advance, which means it is possible to utilise the permitted capacity better in each case than with a static concept. The number of seats that can be booked in combination remains flexible, so the customer experiences such dynamic control as a perfectly normal booking transaction.

- As an alternative, fixed, predefined distances between seats can be specified in seating plans by using a special editing function. In this way, seats can be removed from the outset, or individual seats and rows can be blocked, or patterns defined for determining which seats are available. Seating plans already available in the EVENTIM system are an excellent basis for this function.

CTS EVENTIM provides two options for logging visitor data:

- Eventim.CheckIn: by using this newly developed software, visitors to events can have their personal data conveniently recorded from their mobile phone, either in advance or directly on admission to the respective event. Personal details are stored on EVENTIM servers and later deleted in accordance with data protection regulations.
