I. Scope and processing of personal data
As a matter of principle, we collect and use personal data of our users only to the extent necessary to provide a functional website and our contents and services. If this is not the case, personal data is regularly only used with the user's consent. An exception is made in those cases where prior consent cannot be obtained for factual reasons and the processing of the data is permitted by law.
II. Legal basis of the processing
Insofar as we obtain the consent of the data subject for processing operations involving personal data, Article 6 (1) sentence 1 lit.
a) EU Basic Data Protection Regulation (DSGVO) serves as the legal basis.
Article 6 (1) sentence 1 lit. b) DSGVO serves as the legal basis for the processing of personal data required for the performance of a contract (e.g. accommodation and catering contracts, supply contracts, employment contracts) to which the data subject is a party. This also applies to processing operations which are necessary to carry out pre-contractual measures.
Insofar as processing of personal data is necessary to fulfil a legal obligation to which our company is subject, Article 6 (1) sentence 1 lit. c) DSGVO serves as the legal basis.
In the event that vital interests of the data subject or another natural person require the processing of personal data, Article 6 (1) sentence 1 lit.
d) DSGVO serves as the legal basis. If the processing is necessary to safeguard a legitimate interest of our company or of a third party and if the interests, fundamental rights and freedoms of the data subject do not outweigh the former interest, Article 6 (1) sentence 1 lit. f) FADP serves as the legal basis for the processing. The legitimate interest of our company regularly lies in the improvement of our services to our guests and in the improvement of the performance of our business activities.
III. Routine deletion and blocking of personal data
We process and store personal data of the person concerned only as long as this is necessary to achieve the purpose of storage. In addition, data may be stored for as long as the European or national legislator has provided for this in EU ordinances, laws or other regulations to which the person responsible for processing is subject. As soon as the storage purpose ceases to apply or a storage period prescribed by the aforementioned regulations expires, the personal data is routinely blocked or deleted.
IV. Security of your data

You can tell whether an individual page of our website is being transmitted in encrypted form by the closed display of the key or lock symbol in the lower status bar of your browser.
We also use appropriate technical and organizational security measures to protect your data against accidental or intentional manipulation, partial or complete loss, destruction or unauthorized access by third parties.
