Data protection

We are very delighted that you have shown interest in our enterprise.
Data protection is of a particularly high priority for DAS.GOLDBERG.
It is generally possible to use our website without providing any personal data.
However, if a person concerned wishes to make use of special services of our company via our website, it may be necessary to process personal data.
If the processing of personal data is necessary and there is no legal basis for such processing, we generally obtain the consent of the data subject.
The processing of personal data, such as the name, address, e-mail address, or telephone number of a data subject shall always be in line with the General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR), and in accordance with the country-specific data protection regulations applicable to DAS.GOLDBERG.
By means of this data protection declaration, our company would like to inform the public about the type, scope and purpose of the personal data we collect, use and process.
Furthermore, data subjects are informed of their rights by means of this privacy policy.
As the controller, DAS.GOLDBERG has implemented numerous technical and organizational measures to ensure the most complete protection of personal data processed through this website.
Nevertheless, Internet-based data transmissions can generally have security gaps, so that absolute protection cannot be guaranteed.
For this reason, every data subject is free to transmit personal data to us by alternative means, for example by telephone.

The data protection declaration of DAS.GOLDBERG is based on the terms used by the European legislator for the adoption of the General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR). Our privacy policy should be easy to read and understand for the public as well as for our customers and business partners. To ensure this, we would like to explain the terminology used in advance.

We use the following terms, among others, in this Privacy Policy:

a) personal data
Personal data is any information relating to an identified or identifiable natural person (hereinafter “data subject”). An identifiable natural person is one who can be identified, directly or indirectly, in particular by reference to an identifier such as a name, an identification number, location data, an online identifier or to one or more factors specific to the physical, physiological, genetic, mental, economic, cultural or social identity of that natural person.

b) Person concerned
Data subject is any identified or identifiable natural person whose personal data is processed by the controller responsible for the processing.

c) Processing
Processing is any operation or set of operations which is performed on personal data or on sets of personal data, whether or not by automated means, such as collection, recording, organization, structuring, storage, adaptation or alteration, retrieval, consultation, use, disclosure by transmission, dissemination or otherwise making available, alignment or combination, restriction, erasure or destruction.

d) Restriction of processing
Restriction of processing is the marking of stored personal data with the aim of restricting its future processing.

e) Profiling
Profiling means any form of automated processing of personal data consisting of the use of personal data to evaluate certain personal aspects relating to a natural person, in particular to analyze or predict aspects concerning that natural person’s performance at work, economic situation, health, personal preferences, interests, reliability, behavior, location or movements.

f) Pseudonymization
Pseudonymization is the processing of personal data in such a manner that the personal data can no longer be attributed to a specific data subject without the use of additional information, provided that such additional information is kept separately and is subject to technical and organizational measures to ensure that the personal data are not attributed to an identified or identifiable natural person.

g) Controller or controller responsible for the processing
Controller or controller responsible for the processing is the natural or legal person, public authority, agency or other body which, alone or jointly with others, determines the purposes and means of the processing of personal data. Where the purposes and means of such processing are determined by Union or Member State law, the controller or the specific criteria for its nomination may be provided for by Union or Member State law.

h) Processor
Processor is a natural or legal person, public authority, agency or other body which processes personal data on behalf of the controller.

i) Recipient
Recipient is a natural or legal person, public authority, agency or another body, to which the personal data are disclosed, whether a third party or not. However, authorities that may receive personal data in the context of a specific investigation mandate under Union law or the law of the Member States are not considered recipients.

j) Third party
Third party is a natural or legal person, public authority, agency or body other than the data subject, controller, processor and persons who, under the direct authority of the controller or processor, are authorized to process personal data.

k) Consent
Consent is any freely given, specific, informed and unambiguous indication of the data subject’s wishes by which he or she, by a statement or by a clear affirmative action, signifies agreement to the processing of personal data relating to him or her.

The controller within the meaning of the General Data Protection Regulation, other data protection laws applicable in the Member States of the European Union and other provisions of a data protection nature is DAS.GOLDBERG.

If you use this website without transmitting data to us in any other way (e.g. by registering or using the contact form), we collect technically necessary data that is automatically transmitted to our server, e.g:

• IP address
• Date and time of the request
• Content of the request
• Access status/HTTP status code
• Browser type
• Language and version of the browser software
• Operating system
• This is technically necessary in order to display our website to you.
  We also use the data to ensure the security and stability of our website.
  The legal basis for the collection is Art. 6 para.
  1 lit.
  f GDPR.

Our Internet pages use cookies.
Cookies are text files that are placed and stored on a computer system via an Internet browser.
Numerous websites and servers use cookies.
Many cookies contain a so-called cookie ID.
A cookie ID is a unique identifier of the cookie.
It consists of a string of characters that can be used to assign websites and servers to the specific internet browser in which the cookie was stored.
This enables the websites and servers visited to distinguish the individual browser of the data subject from other Internet browsers that contain other cookies.
A specific Internet browser can be recognized and identified via the unique cookie ID.
Through the use of cookies, DAS.GOLDBERG can provide the users of this website with more user-friendly services that would not be possible without the cookie setting.
By means of a cookie, the information and offers on our website can be optimized for the benefit of the user.
As already mentioned, cookies enable us to recognize the users of our website.
The purpose of this recognition is to make it easier for users to use our website.
For example, the user of a website that uses cookies does not have to re-enter their access data each time they visit the website because this is taken over by the website and the cookie stored on the user’s computer system.
Another example is the cookie for a shopping basket in an online store.
The online store remembers the items that a customer has placed in the virtual shopping cart via a cookie.
The data subject can prevent the setting of cookies by our website at any time by means of a corresponding setting of the Internet browser used and thus permanently object to the setting of cookies.
Furthermore, cookies that have already been set can be deleted at any time via an Internet browser or other software programs.
This is possible in all common Internet browsers.
If the data subject deactivates the setting of cookies in the Internet browser used, not all functions of our website may be fully usable.

Our website collects a series of general data and information each time the website is accessed by a data subject or an automated system.
This general data and information is stored in the server log files.
The (1) browser types and versions used, (2) the operating system used by the accessing system, (3) the website from which an accessing system accesses our website (so-called referrer), (4) the sub-websites which are accessed via an accessing system on our website can be recorded, (5) the date and time of access to the website, (6) an internet protocol address (IP address), (7) the internet service provider of the accessing system and (8) other similar data and information used for security purposes in the event of attacks on our information technology systems.
When using these general data and information, DAS.GOLDBERG does not draw any conclusions about the data subject.
Rather, this information is needed to (1) deliver the content of our website correctly, (2) optimize the content of our website as well as its advertisement, (3) ensure the long-term viability of our information technology systems and website technology, and (4) provide law enforcement authorities with the information necessary for criminal prosecution in case of a cyber-attack.
Therefore, DAS.GOLDBERG analyzes anonymously collected data and information statistically, with the aim of increasing the data protection and data security of our enterprise, and to ensure an optimal level of protection for the personal data we process.
The anonymous data of the server log files are stored separately from all personal data provided by a data subject.

You can enter personal data via a contact form on our website. When you use the contact form, we collect and store the data you enter in the input mask (e.g. surname, first name, e-mail address). It will not be passed on to third parties.
In the case of consent, the legal basis for processing is Art. 6 para. 1 lit. a GDPR. If your request serves to prepare the conclusion of a contract, Art. 6 para. 1 lit. b DS-GVO additional legal basis.
We use the data exclusively to process and respond to your request.

Personal data requested by us in connection with a room booking will only be stored for as long as is necessary for the execution of the contract and any subsequent contract-related correspondence or, in the case of documents relevant under commercial and/or tax law that contain personal data, for as long as the statutory periods of the German Commercial Code and the German Fiscal Code provide for the retention of these documents.
Legal basis for the processing of personal data in connection with a room booking: Personal data processed in connection with a room booking is required to fulfill the corresponding contract, Article 6 GDPR.

Personal data requested by us in connection with a room booking will be processed for the purpose of processing the contract.
In addition, we use your e-mail address for the purpose of direct advertising for our own similar offers, unless you have already objected to this use.
You can object to the use for the purpose of direct advertising at any time.
Your e-mail address will be stored for the newsletter for as long as you do not object to this use.

You can subscribe to a newsletter on our website.
When you subscribe to the newsletter, we collect and store the data you enter in the input mask (e.g. surname, first name, e-mail address).
This data is not passed on to third parties.
Subscription to the newsletter is only possible with your consent.
The legal basis for processing is Art. 6 para.
1 lit.
a GDPR.
We use the data exclusively for sending newsletters.

If you leave a post or comment on this website, your IP address will be saved.
This is for the website operator’s security: if your text violates the law, they want to be able to trace your identity.

To protect the security of your data during transmission, we use state-of-the-art encryption methods (e.g. SSL) via HTTPS.

We use script libraries and font libraries such as Google Webfonts (https://www.google.com/webfonts/) on this website to display our content correctly and graphically appealing across browsers. Google web fonts are transferred to the cache of your browser to avoid multiple loading.
If the browser does not support Google web fonts or prevents access, content is displayed in a standard font.
Calling up script libraries or font libraries automatically triggers a connection to the library operator.
It is theoretically possible – although it is currently unclear whether and for what purposes – that operators of such libraries collect data.
When accessing our website, the visitor’s web browser establishes a direct connection to these servers.
Among other things, the visitor’s IP address is transmitted to Google and stored there.
Google participates in the EU-US Privacy Shield: www.privacyshield.gov/EU-US-Framework The privacy policy of the library operator Google can be found here: https://www.google.com/policies/privacy/

We only process and store your data for as long as is necessary for processing or to comply with legal obligations.
Once the purpose of processing no longer applies, your data will be blocked or deleted.
If there are additional legal obligations for storage, we will block or delete your data when the legal storage periods expire.

The controller shall process and store the personal data of the data subject only for the period necessary to achieve the purpose of storage, or as far as this is granted by the European legislator or other legislators in laws or regulations to which the controller is subject to.
The criterion for the duration of the storage of personal data is the respective statutory retention period.
After this period has expired, the corresponding data is routinely deleted, provided that it is no longer required for contract fulfillment or contract initiation.
If the storage purpose no longer applies or if a storage period prescribed by the European legislator or another competent legislator expires, the personal data is routinely blocked or deleted in accordance with the statutory provisions.

a) Right to confirmation
Each data subject shall have the right granted by the European legislator to obtain from the controller the confirmation as to whether or not personal data concerning him or her are being processed. If a data subject wishes to avail himself of this right of confirmation, he or she may at any time contact our Data Protection Officer or another employee of the controller.

b) Right to information
Any person affected by the processing of personal data has the right granted by the European legislator of directives and regulations to obtain from the controller free information about the personal data stored about him/her and a copy of this information at any time.

Processing may also be carried out electronically.
This is particularly the case if an applicant submits relevant application documents to the controller by electronic means, for example by email or via a web form on the website.
If the controller concludes an employment contract with an applicant, the transmitted data will be stored for the purpose of processing the employment relationship in compliance with the statutory provisions.
If the controller does not conclude an employment contract with the applicant, the application documents will be automatically deleted two months after notification of the rejection decision, provided that no other legitimate interests of the controller stand in the way of deletion.
Other legitimate interest in this sense is, for example, a burden of proof in proceedings under the General Equal Treatment Act (AGG).

We embed YouTube videos on some of our websites. The operator of the corresponding plugins is YouTube, LLC, 901 Cherry Ave, San Bruno, CA 94066, USA. When you visit a page with the YouTube plugin, a connection to YouTube servers is established. YouTube is informed which pages you visit. If you are logged into your YouTube account, YouTube can assign your surfing behavior to you personally. You can prevent this by logging out of your YouTube account beforehand.

When a YouTube video is started, the provider uses cookies that collect information about user behavior. If you have deactivated the storage of cookies for the Google Ad program, you will not have to expect any such cookies when watching YouTube videos. However, YouTube also stores non-personal usage information in other cookies. If you wish to prevent this, you must block the storage of cookies in your browser. Further information on data protection at “Youtube” can be found in the provider’s privacy policy at: https://www.google.de/intl/de/policies/privacy/

The data controller has integrated Facebook components on this website. Facebook is a social network.

A social network is a social meeting place operated on the Internet, an online community that generally enables users to communicate with each other and interact in virtual space. A social network can serve as a platform for the exchange of opinions and experiences or enable the Internet community to provide personal or company-related information. Among other things, Facebook allows users of the social network to create private profiles, upload photos and network via friend requests.

The operating company of Facebook is Facebook, Inc, 1 Hacker Way, Menlo Park, CA 94025, USA. If a data subject lives outside the USA or Canada, the controller for the processing of personal data is Facebook Ireland Ltd, 4 Grand Canal Square, Grand Canal Harbour, Dublin 2, Ireland.

With each call-up to one of the individual pages of this Internet site, which is operated by the controller and into which a Facebook component (Facebook plug-ins) was integrated, the web browser on the information technology system of the data subject is automatically prompted to download display of the corresponding Facebook component from Facebook through the Facebook component. A complete overview of all Facebook plug-ins can be found at https://developers.facebook.com/docs/plugins/?locale=de_DE. As part of this technical process, Facebook receives information about which specific subpage of our website is visited by the person concerned.

If the data subject is logged in to Facebook at the same time, Facebook recognizes which specific subpage of our website the data subject is visiting each time the data subject accesses our website and for the entire duration of the respective stay on our website. This information is collected by the Facebook component and assigned by Facebook to the respective Facebook account of the data subject. If the data subject clicks on one of the Facebook buttons integrated on our website, for example the “Like” button, or if the data subject makes a comment, Facebook assigns this information to the personal Facebook user account of the data subject and stores this personal data.

Facebook always receives information via the Facebook component that the data subject has visited our website if the data subject is logged in to Facebook at the same time as accessing our website; this occurs regardless of whether the data subject clicks on the Facebook component or not. If the data subject does not want this information to be transmitted to Facebook, they can prevent the transmission by logging out of their Facebook account before accessing our website.

The data policy published by Facebook, which is available at https://de-de.facebook.com/about/privacy/, provides information about the collection, processing and use of personal data by Facebook. It also explains what settings options Facebook offers to protect the privacy of the data subject. Various applications are also available that make it possible to suppress data transmission to Facebook. Such applications can be used by the data subject to suppress data transmission to Facebook.

1. what is conversion tracking anyway?
If you place ads on Facebook, you can find out what users have clicked on Facebook. However, if the aim of the campaign is to make a purchase on a website, for example, this is no longer possible with Facebook’s on-board tools, as the user leaves the platform. As Facebook’s business model is essentially based on the sale of advertising, Facebook remedied this situation in February 2017 and introduced the new “Tracking Pixel”. The “visitor action pixel” allows you to do just that: measure the success of a Facebook advertising campaign outside the platform on websites. This is not a simple click tracking (how many users have clicked on my link). The Facebook Pixel, which is integrated into the advertiser’s website, allows the user’s path to purchase to be tracked. This is called conversion tracking.

2. what does the Facebook Pixel do?
The Facebook pixel (officially visitor action pixel, until 2016: conversion tracking pixel) can be integrated on websites outside the platform. A specific tracking code is generated for this purpose. Various target pages can be defined: From signing up for a newsletter to downloading free content to purchasing a specific product, it is possible to track what the potential customer has done. This is the only way for advertisers to understand whether their campaign is achieving the desired success. Tracking itself is carried out via cookies, i.e. not via the Facebook pixel itself.

3. what exactly is the problem with data protection with Facebook Pixel?
Conversion tracking does not collect anonymous or pseudonymized data. After an order, the advertiser can track exactly which path customer XYZ took from the Facebook ad to the click to the purchase. The customer’s personal data is collected, transferred to Facebook in the USA and (probably) linked to the user’s profile data on Facebook. Facebook then makes certain information available to the advertiser. However, the user who clicks on an ad on Facebook is not informed of this. It is precisely this data transfer and analysis without the knowledge of the Facebook user that makes it tricky in terms of data protection law.

Depending on the type of use of customer data via Facebook Pixel, there are 3 conceivable legal ways:
1 A legal provision that would allow this. However, this does not exist for Facebook tracking under current law.
2 The opt-out of users in the “normal” use of Facebook Pixel.
3 Consent (opt-in) from users if you use Facebook Custom Audiences and Facebook Look-Alike Audiences.

The controller has integrated tracking pixels on this website.
A tracking pixel is a miniature graphic that is embedded in Internet pages to enable log file recording and log file analysis, whereby a statistical evaluation can be carried out.
The integrated tracking pixels serve the Scalable Central Measurement Method (SZM) of the collecting society WORT (VG-Wort).
The Scalable Central Measurement Method is operated by INFOnline GmbH, Forum Bonn Nord, Brühler Str. 9, 53119 Bonn.
The Scalable Central Measurement Method is used to determine statistical key figures with which the copy probability of texts is calculated.
The embedded tracking pixel enables the collecting society WORT to recognize whether, when and by how many users (including the data subject) our website was opened and what content was accessed.
The data obtained using the Scalable Central Measurement Method is collected anonymously.
In order to record access figures for the purpose of recognizing the users of a website, either a so-called session cookie is set, i.e. a signature is created which is made up of various automatically transmitted information, or alternative methods are used.
The IP address of the Internet connection used by the data subject is only collected and processed in anonymized form.
The data subject is not identified at any time.
The data subject may, as stated above, prevent the setting of cookies through our website at any time by means of a corresponding setting of the Internet browser used and thus permanently deny the setting of cookies.
Such a setting of the Internet browser used would also prevent INFOnline from setting a cookie on the information technology system of the data subject.
In addition, cookies already set by INFOnline can be deleted at any time via an Internet browser or other software programs.
Furthermore, the data subject has the option of objecting to and preventing the collection of data generated by INFOnline relating to the use of this website and the processing of this data by INFOnline.
To do this, the data subject must press the opt-out button under the link http://optout.ioam.de, which sets an opt-out cookie.
The opt-out cookie set with the objection is stored on the information technology system used by the data subject.
If the cookies on the data subject’s system are deleted after an objection, the data subject must call up the link again and set a new opt-out cookie.
With the setting of the opt-out cookie, however, there is the possibility that the Internet pages of the controller are no longer fully usable for the data subject.
The applicable data protection provisions of INFOnline may be accessed under https://www.infonline.de/datenschutz/.

The controller has integrated the Google+ button as a component on this website. Google+ is a so-called social network. A social network is a social meeting place operated on the Internet, an online community that generally enables users to communicate with each other and interact in virtual space. A social network can serve as a platform for the exchange of opinions and experiences or enable the Internet community to provide personal or company-related information. Google+ allows users of the social network to create private profiles, upload photos and network via friend requests, among other things.

The operating company of Google+ is Google Inc., 1600 Amphitheatre Pkwy, Mountain View, CA 94043-1351, USA.

With each call-up to one of the individual pages of this Internet site, which is operated by the controller and on which a Google+ button has been integrated, the Internet browser on the information technology system of the data subject is automatically prompted to download a display of the corresponding Google+ button from Google through the respective Google+ button. As part of this technical process, Google receives information about which specific subpage of our website is visited by the person concerned. More detailed information on Google+ can be found at https://developers.google.com/+/.

If the data subject is logged in to Google+ at the same time, Google recognizes which specific subpage of our website the data subject is visiting each time the data subject accesses our website and for the entire duration of their stay on our website. This information is collected by the Google+ button and assigned by Google to the respective Google+ account of the data subject.

If the data subject clicks on one of the Google+ buttons integrated on our website and thereby submits a Google+1 recommendation, Google assigns this information to the personal Google+ user account of the data subject and stores this personal data. Google stores the data subject’s Google+1 recommendation and makes it publicly available in accordance with the terms and conditions accepted by the data subject in this regard. A Google+1 recommendation made by the data subject on this website is subsequently stored and processed together with other personal data, such as the name of the Google+1 account used by the data subject and the photo stored in this account in other Google services, for example the search engine results of the Google search engine, the Google account of the data subject or in other places, for example on websites or in connection with advertisements. Google is also able to link your visit to this website with other personal data stored by Google.

Art. 6 I lit.
a GDPR serves our company as the legal basis for processing operations for which we obtain consent for a specific processing purpose.
If the processing of personal data is necessary for the performance of a contract to which the data subject is party, as is the case, for example, when processing operations are necessary for the supply of goods or to provide any other service or consideration, the processing is based on Art. 6 I lit.
b GDPR.
The same applies to such processing operations that are necessary to carry out pre-contractual measures, for example in cases of inquiries about our products or services.
If our company is subject to a legal obligation which requires the processing of personal data, such as for the fulfillment of tax obligations, the processing is based on Art. 6 I lit.
c GDPR.
In rare cases, the processing of personal data may become necessary in order to protect the vital interests of the data subject or another natural person.
This would be the case, for example, if a visitor were injured in our company and their name, age, health insurance details or other vital information would have to be passed on to a doctor, hospital or other third party.
The processing would then be based on Art. 6 I lit.
d of the GDPR.
Ultimately, processing operations could be based on Art. 6 I lit.
f of the GDPR.
Processing operations that are not covered by any of the aforementioned legal bases are based on this legal basis if the processing is necessary to safeguard a legitimate interest of our company or a third party, provided that the interests, fundamental rights and freedoms of the data subject do not prevail.
We are permitted to carry out such processing operations in particular because they have been specifically mentioned by the European legislator.
In this respect, it took the view that a legitimate interest could be assumed if the data subject is a customer of the controller (Recital 47 Sentence 2 GDPR).

This website uses the remarketing function of Google Inc.
This function is used to present interest-based advertisements to website visitors within the Google advertising network.
A so-called “cookie” is stored in the browser of the website visitor, which makes it possible to recognize the visitor when he or she visits websites that belong to the Google advertising network.
On these pages, the visitor can be presented with advertisements that relate to content that the visitor has previously accessed on websites that use Google’s remarketing function.
According to its own information, Google does not collect any personal data during this process.
However, if you do not wish to use Google’s remarketing function, you can deactivate it by making the appropriate settings at http://www.google.com/settings/ads.
Alternatively, you can deactivate the use of cookies for interest-based advertising via the advertising network initiative by following the instructions at http://www.networkadvertising.org/managing/opt_out.asp.

If the processing of personal data is based on Article 6 I lit. f GDPR, our legitimate interest is the performance of our business activities for the benefit of the well-being of all our employees and our shareholders.

Legal or contractual provisions for the provision of personal data; necessity for the conclusion of the contract; obligation of the data subject to provide the personal data; possible consequences of non-provision
We would like to inform you that the provision of personal data is partly required by law (e.g. tax regulations) or may also result from contractual regulations (e.g. information on the contractual partner).
Sometimes it may be necessary for a contract to be concluded for a data subject to provide us with personal data that must subsequently be processed by us. For example, the data subject is obliged to provide us with personal data if our company concludes a contract with them. Failure to provide the personal data would mean that the contract with the data subject could not be concluded.
Before personal data is provided by the data subject, the data subject must contact our data protection officer. Our data protection officer clarifies to the data subject on a case-by-case basis whether the provision of personal data is required by law or contract or is necessary for the conclusion of the contract, whether there is an obligation to provide the personal data and what the consequences would be if the personal data were not provided.

As a responsible company, we do not use automated decision-making or profiling.

Contact tracing in the event of a COVID-19 case
In order to enable contact tracing in the event of a subsequently identified COVID-19 case among guests or staff, the contact details of guests (surname, first name, place of residence, telephone number or e-mail address, period of stay) can be passed on to the responsible health authorities on request. The data must be stored for one month for this purpose. If the data must be stored for longer on the basis of another legal basis, it may no longer be used for the purpose stated in sentence 1 after one month has elapsed since it was collected.
