Purpose of Data Processing
We process personal data collected through forms (booking requests) for the purpose of carrying out our business activities and fulfilling related legal and contractual obligations.
IP-address
When you visit our website, information is automatically stored on the web server. This includes the browser used, the operating system in use, the page that referred you to our website, the IP address, the time of access, and other information. From our perspective, this data is pseudonymized and cannot be associated with specific individuals without additional data sources. We do not analyze this data unless there is evidence of unlawful use of the website.
Cookies
Cookies are small text files that are sent when visiting a website and temporarily stored on the user’s hard drive. When the corresponding server of our website is accessed again by the user, the user’s browser sends the previously received cookie back to the server. The server can then evaluate the information obtained through this process in various ways. For example, cookies can be used to control advertising displays or to make navigating a website easier. If the user wishes to prevent the use of cookies, this can be done by changing the settings of the internet browser used on their computer — that is, the program used to open and display websites (such as Internet Explorer, Mozilla Firefox, Opera, or Safari).
