   If the legal requirements are met, you have the following rights as a person affected by data processing:
   
   Right to information: You have the right to request access to your personal data stored by us at any time free of charge if we are processing it. This gives you the opportunity to check what personal data we process about you and that we use it in accordance with the applicable data protection regulations.
   
   Right to rectification: You have the right to have incorrect or incomplete personal data rectified and to be informed of the rectification. In this case, we will inform the recipients of the data concerned of the adjustments made, unless this is impossible or involves disproportionate effort.
   
   Right to erasure: You have the right to have your personal data erased under certain circumstances. In individual cases, particularly in the case of statutory retention obligations, the right to erasure may be excluded. In this case, the data may be blocked instead of erased if the conditions are met.

   Right of revocation: You have the right to revoke your consent at any time. However, processing activities based on your consent in the past are not rendered unlawful by your revocation.
   
   To exercise these rights, please send us an email to the following Adresse:

   Right to lodge a complaint: You have the right to lodge a complaint with a competent supervisory authority, e.g. against the way in which your personal data is processed.
4. Data security
   
   We use suitable technical and organisational security measures to protect your personal data stored by us against loss and unlawful processing, in particular unauthorised access by third parties. Our employees and the service companies commissioned by us are obliged by us to maintain confidentiality and to respect data protection. Furthermore, these persons are only granted access to personal data to the extent necessary to fulfil their tasks.
   
   Our security measures are continuously adapted in line with technological developments. However, the transmission of information via the Internet and electronic means of communication always harbours certain security risks and we cannot provide an absolute guarantee for the security of information transmitted in this way.
5. Contacting us
   
   If you contact us via our contact addresses and channels (e.g. by e-mail, telephone or contact form), your personal data will be processed. The data that you have made available to us will be processed, e.g. the name of your company, your name, your function, your e-mail address or telephone number and your enquiry. In addition, the time of receipt of the enquiry is documented. Mandatory information is marked with an asterisk (*) in contact forms.
   
   We use a software application from RTP GmbH, Josefstrasse 92, 8005 Zurich, Switzerland, to process contact requests via the contact form. Your data may therefore be stored in an RTP GmbH database, which may allow RTP GmbH to access your data if this is necessary for the provision of the software and for support in the use of the software. Information on the processing of data by third parties and any transfer abroad can be found in section 9 of this privacy policy.
   
   We process this data exclusively in order to fulfil your request (e.g. providing information about our hotel, support with contract processing such as questions about your booking, incorporating your feedback into the improvement of our service, etc.). The legal basis for this data processing is our legitimate interest within the meaning of Art. 6 para. 1 lit. f EU GDPR in the implementation of your request or, if your request is aimed at the conclusion or execution of a contract, the necessity for the implementation of the necessary measures within the meaning of Art. 6 para. 1 lit. b EU GDPR.
6. Use of your data for marketing purposes
   1. Centralised data storage and analysis in the CRM system
      
      If a clear assignment to your person is possible, we will store and link the data described in this privacy policy, i.e. in particular your personal details, your contacts, your contract data and your surfing behaviour on our websites, in a central database. This serves the efficient management of customer data and allows us to respond to your requests appropriately, and enables the efficient provision of the services you have requested and the processing of the associated contracts. The legal basis for this data processing is our legitimate interest within the meaning of Art. 6 para. 1 lit. f GDPR in the efficient management of user data.
      
      We analyse this data in order to further develop our offers in line with your needs and to display and suggest the most relevant information and offers to you. We also use methods that predict potential, interests and future orders based on your website usage. The legal basis for this data processing is our legitimate interest within the meaning of Art. 6 para. 1 lit. f GDPR in the implementation of marketing measures.
   2. E-mail marketing and newsletter
      
      If you register for our e-mail newsletter (e.g. when opening or within your customer account), the following data will be collected. Mandatory information is marked with an asterisk (*) in the registration form:
      - E-mail address- Salutation
      - First name and surname
      
      To avoid misuse and to ensure that the owner of an e-mail address has actually given their consent, we use the so-called double opt-in for registration. After sending the registration form, you will receive an e-mail from us containing a confirmation link. To definitely register for the newsletter, you must click on this link. If you do not click on the confirmation link within the specified period, your data will be deleted and our newsletter will not be sent to this address.
      
      By registering, you consent to the processing of this data in order to receive news from us about our hotel and related information on products and services. This may also include requests to take part in competitions or to rate one of the aforementioned products and services. The collection of the salutation and name allows us to verify the assignment of the registration to any existing customer account and to personalise the content of the emails. The link to a customer account helps us to make the offers and content contained in the newsletter more relevant to you and better customise it to your potential needs.
      
      We will continue to use your data to send you emails until you withdraw your consent. You can withdraw your consent at any time, in particular via the unsubscribe link in all our marketing emails.
      
      Our marketing emails may contain a so-called web beacon or 1x1 pixel (tracking pixel) or similar technical aids. A web beacon is an invisible graphic that is linked to the user ID of the respective newsletter subscriber. For each marketing email sent, we receive information about which addresses have not yet received the email, to which addresses it was sent and which addresses failed to receive it. We also see which addresses have opened the email, for how long and which links they have clicked on. Finally, we also receive information about which addresses have unsubscribed. We use this data for statistical purposes and to optimise the advertising emails in terms of frequency, timing, structure and content of the emails. This enables us to better tailor the information and offers in our emails to the individual interests of the recipients.
      
      The web beacon is deleted when you delete the email. To prevent the use of the web beacon in our marketing e-mails, please set the parameters of your e-mail programme so that HTML is not displayed in messages, if this is not already the case by default. You can find information on how to configure this setting in the help sections of your email software, e.g. here for Microsoft Outlook.
      
      By subscribing to the newsletter, you also consent to the statistical analysis of user behaviour for the purpose of optimising and adapting the newsletter. This consent constitutes our legal basis for the processing of data within the meaning of Art. 6 para. 1 lit. a EU GDPR.
      
      We use the email marketing software Creatsend.com from Campaign Monitor Marigold for marketing emails. Your data is therefore stored in a Campaign Monitor database, which allows Campaign Monitor to access your data if this is necessary for the provision of the software and for support in the use of the software. The legal basis for this processing is our legitimate interest within the meaning of Article 6(1)(f) GDPR in the use of third-party services.
7. Disclosure to third parties and access by third parties
   
   Without the support of other companies, we would not be able to provide our services in the desired form. In order for us to be able to use the services of these companies, it is also necessary to pass on your personal data to a certain extent. Such disclosure takes place in particular if this is necessary for the fulfilment of the contract you have requested, i.e. e.g. to restaurants or other third-party providers for which you have made a reservation. The legal basis for these transfers is the necessity for the fulfilment of the contract within the meaning of Art. 6 para. 1 lit. b EU GDPR.
   
   Data is also passed on to selected service providers and only to the extent necessary for the provision of the service. Various third-party service providers are also already explicitly mentioned in this privacy policy, e.g. in the sections on marketing. These are, for example, IT service providers (such as providers of software solutions), advertising agencies and consulting firms. The legal basis for this data transfer is our legitimate interest within the meaning of Art. 6 para. 1 lit. f EU GDPR in obtaining third-party services.
   
   In addition, your data may be passed on, in particular to authorities, legal advisors or debt collection companies, if we are legally obliged to do so or if this is necessary to protect our rights, in particular to enforce claims arising from the relationship with you. Data may also be disclosed if another company intends to acquire our company or parts thereof and such disclosure is necessary to carry out a due diligence review or to complete the transaction. The legal basis for this data transfer is our legitimate interest within the meaning of Art. 6 para. 1 lit. f GDPR in the protection of our rights and fulfilment of our obligations or the sale of our company.
8. Transfer of personal data abroad
   
   We are authorised to transfer your personal data to third parties abroad if this is necessary to carry out the data processing specified in this privacy policy (see in particular sections 14-17). It goes without saying that the statutory provisions on the disclosure of personal data to third parties will be complied with. If the country in question does not have an adequate level of data protection, we ensure through contractual arrangements that your data is adequately protected by these companies.
9. Retention periods
   
   We only store personal data for as long as is necessary to carry out the processing described in this privacy policy within the scope of our legitimate interest. In the case of contractual data, storage is prescribed by statutory retention obligations. Requirements that oblige us to retain data result from accounting and tax regulations. According to these regulations, business communication, concluded contracts and accounting documents must be stored for up to 10 years. If we no longer need this data to perform the services for you, the data will be blocked. This means that the data may then only be used if this is necessary for the fulfilment of retention obligations or for the defence and enforcement of our legal interests. The data will be deleted as soon as there is no longer an obligation to retain it and there is no longer a legitimate interest in retaining it.

    Further information on data protection at Google can be found here.
15. Social Media
    1. Social Media Profiles
       
       On our websites, we have included links to our profiles in the social networks of the following providers:- Meta Platforms Inc, 1601 S California Ave, Palo Alto, CA 94304, USA;
       - Instagram Inc, 1601 Willow Road, Menlo Park, CA 94025, USA;
       - Twitter Inc, 1355 Market Street, Suite 900, San Francisco, CA 94103, USA;
       - Linkedin Unlimited Company, Wilton Place, Dublin 2, Ireland.
       
       If you click on the social network icons, you will be automatically redirected to our profile in the respective network. This establishes a direct connection between your browser and the server of the respective social network. As a result, the network receives the information that you have visited our website with your IP address and clicked on the link.
       
       If you click on a link to a network while you are logged into your user account with the network in question, the content of our website can be linked to your profile so that the network can assign your visit to our website directly to your account. If you wish to prevent this, you should log out before clicking on the relevant links. A connection between your access to our website and your user account will always take place if you log in to the respective network after clicking on the link. The respective provider is responsible under data protection law for the associated data processing. Please therefore refer to the information on the network's website.
       
       The legal basis for any data processing attributed to us is our legitimate interest within the meaning of Art. 6 para. 1 lit. f EU GDPR in the use and advertising of our social media profiles.
    2. Social Media Plugins
       
       You can use social plugins from the providers listed below on our website:
       - Meta Platforms Inc., 1601 S California Ave, Palo Alto, CA 94304, USA, Datenschutzhinweise;
       - Instagram Inc., 1601 Willow Road, Menlo Park, CA 94025, USA, Datenschutzhinweise;
       - Twitter Inc., 1355 Market Street, Suite 900, San Francisco, CA 94103, USA, Datenschutzhinweise;
       - Linkedin Unlimited Company, Wilton Place, Dublin 2, Irland, Datenschutzhinweise.
       
       We use social plugins to make it easier for you to share content from our websites. The social plugins help us to increase the visibility of our content in social networks and thus contribute to better marketing.
       
       The plugins are deactivated on our websites by default and therefore do not send any data to the social networks when you simply visit our website. To increase data protection, we have integrated the plugins in such a way that a connection is not automatically established with the servers of the networks. Your browser only establishes a direct connection to the servers of the respective social network when you activate the plugins and thus give your consent to data transmission and further processing by the social network providers.
       
       The content of the plugin is transmitted by the social network directly to your browser, which integrates it into the website. As a result, the respective provider receives the information that your browser has accessed the corresponding page of our website, even if you do not have an account with this social network or are not currently logged in to it. This information (including your IP address) is transmitted directly from your browser to a server of the provider (usually in the USA) and stored there. We have no influence on the scope of the data that the provider collects with the plugin, although we can be considered jointly responsible with the providers to a certain extent from a data protection perspective.
       
       If you are logged in to the social network, it can assign your visit to our website directly to your user account. If you interact with the plugins, the corresponding information is also transmitted directly to a server of the provider and stored there. The information (e.g. that you like a product or service from us) may also be published on the social network and possibly displayed to other users of the social network. The provider of the social network may use this information for the purpose of displaying advertising and customising the respective offer. For this purpose, usage, interest and relationship profiles may be created, e.g. to analyse your use of our website with regard to the advertisements displayed to you on the social network, to inform other users about your activities on our website and to provide other services associated with the use of the social network. The purpose and scope of the data collection and the further processing and use of the data by the providers of the social networks as well as your rights in this regard and setting options to protect your privacy can be found directly in the data protection information of the respective provider.
       
       If you do not want the provider of the social network to assign the data collected via our website to your user account, you must log out of the social network before activating the plugins. Your consent within the meaning of Art. 6 para. 1 lit. a EU GDPR forms the legal basis for the data processing described. You can revoke your consent at any time by declaring your revocation to the provider of the plugin in accordance with the information in their data protection information.
16. Online advertising and targeting
    1. In general
       
       We use the services of various companies to provide you with interesting offers online. This involves analysing your user behaviour on our websites and websites of other providers in order to be able to display online advertising tailored to your individual needs.
       
       Most technologies for tracking your user behaviour (‘tracking’) and for the targeted display of advertising (‘targeting’) work with cookies (see also section 13), with which your browser can be recognised via various websites. Depending on the service provider, it may also be possible for you to be recognised online even when using different end devices (e.g. laptop and smartphone). This may be the case, for example, if you have registered with a service that you use on several devices.
       
       In addition to the data already mentioned, which is collected when websites are accessed (‘log file data’, see section 12) and when cookies are used (section 13) and which may be passed on to the companies involved in the advertising networks, the following data in particular is used to select the advertising that is potentially most relevant to you:
       - Information about you that you have provided when registering or using a service of advertising partners (e.g. your gender, your age group);
       - User behaviour (e.g. search queries, interactions with advertising, types of websites visited, products or services viewed and purchased, newsletters subscribed to).
       
       We and our service providers use this data to recognise whether you belong to the target group we are addressing and take this into account when selecting advertisements. For example, after you have visited our site, you may be shown adverts for the products or services you have consulted when you visit other sites (‘re-targeting’). Depending on the scope of the data, a user profile may also be created, which is automatically evaluated, and the ads are selected according to the information stored in the profile, such as membership of certain demographic segments or potential interests or behaviours. Such adverts may be presented to you on various channels, including our website or app (as part of on-site and in-app marketing) as well as adverts placed via the online advertising networks we use, such as Google.
       
       The data may then be analysed for the purpose of billing the service provider and to assess the effectiveness of advertising measures in order to better understand the needs of our users and customers and to improve future campaigns. This may also include the information that the performance of an action (e.g. visiting certain sections of our websites or sending information) is attributable to a specific advertisement. We also receive aggregated reports from the service providers on advertising activities and information on how users interact with our website and our adverts.
       
       The legal basis for this data processing is your consent within the meaning of Art. 6 para. 1 lit. a EU GDPR. You can revoke your consent at any time by rejecting or switching off the relevant cookies in the settings of your web browser (see section 13). Further options for blocking advertising can also be found in the information provided by the respective service provider, e.g. Google.
17. Google Ads
    
    This website uses the services of Google LLC, 1600 Amphitheatre Parkway, Mountain View, CA 94043, USA (‘Google’) for online advertising. Google uses cookies for this purpose, such as the so-called DoubleClick cookie, which enable your browser to be recognised when you visit other websites. The information generated by the cookies about your visit to these websites (including your IP address) is transmitted to a Google server in the USA and stored there (please also refer to section 10). Further information on data protection at Google can be found here. here.
    
    The legal basis for this data processing is your consent within the meaning of Art. 6 para. 1 lit. a EU GDPR. You can revoke your consent at any time by rejecting or switching off the relevant cookies in the settings of your web browser (see section 13). Further options for blocking advertising can be found  here.
18. Use of our chat function
    
    If you contact us via chat, your personal data will be processed. The data that you have provided to us will be processed, e.g. the name of your company, your name, your function, your e-mail address and your enquiry. In addition, the time of receipt of the enquiry is documented. Mandatory information is marked with an asterisk (*).
    
    We process this data exclusively in order to fulfil your request (e.g. providing information about our hotel, support with contract processing such as questions about your booking, incorporating your feedback into the improvement of our service, etc.). To provide the chat function, we use a tool from WhatsApp Ireland Limited, 4 Grand Canal Square, Grand Canal Harbour, Dublin 2, Ireland. Therefore, your data is stored in a database of WhatsApp Ireland Limited, which may allow WhatsApp Ireland Limited to access your data if this is necessary for the provision of the software and for support in the use of the software.

To prevent misuse and to take action against unlawful behaviour, prior registration is required. During this process, you provide the following data to Bithawk AG:
    - Mobile phone number
    - MAC address of the end device (automatically)
    
    In addition to the above data, each time the Wi-Fi network is used, data regarding the visited location, including the time, date, and end device, is collected.

Conversely, we only receive the credited amount of the payment at the corresponding time, which we can assign to the relevant receipt number, or a notification that the transaction was not possible or was cancelled. Please always refer to the information provided by the respective company, particularly their privacy policy and terms and conditions.
    
    The legal basis for this transmission is the fulfilment of the contract with you in accordance with Article 6(1)(b) of the EU General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR).
