This data protection declaration applies to all operations in which data is processed, both within the scope of our sales activities and for the online media provided to us.

  • Regardless of the above, you have the right at any time to object to the processing of your personal data for advertising and data analysis purposes.

Please send your objection to the contact address of the person responsible above.

When do we delete your data?

We will delete your data if we no longer need it or if you tell us to do so. This means that – unless otherwise stated in the individual data protection notices of this data protection declaration – we will delete your data if the purpose of the data processing has ceased to exist and the respective legal basis mentioned in the individual data protection no longer exists, if you exercise your right of revocation and no other legal basis for processing within the meaning of Art. 6para. 1bed. b-f DSGVO intervenes if you exercise your right to object and if there are no compelling reasons worthy of protection against deletion.

However, insofar as we (certain parts) need to retain your data for other purposes, such as tax retention periods (usually 6 years for business correspondence or 10 years for booking receipts) or the establishment, exercise or defence of legal claims arising from contractual relationships (up to 4 years) or the data is necessary to protect the privacy of the user. If the rights of another natural or legal person are used, we will delete (the part) your data only after the expiry of these periods. Until the expiry of these periods, however, we limit the processing of this data to these purposes (fulfilment of retention obligations).
