Security measures for data processing
General
To ensure the security of personal data, we have taken both technical and organizational security precautions. Wherever possible, we rely on encryption or pseudonymization of the data.
In accordance with Art. 25 GDPR, which prescribes data protection through technical design and data protection-friendly default settings, we take security aspects into account when selecting our software and hardware. An example of this is the implementation of TLS encryption.
TLS encryption with HTTPS
To securely transmit data on the Internet, we use HTTPS, which ensures secure transmission of all data between your browser and our server. By using TLS, an encryption protocol, we ensure the protection of confidential information.
You can recognize the existence of this security measure by the lock symbol in the address bar of your browser and by the “https” prefix in the URL of our website.
Order processing contract (AVV)
Like many companies, we rely on the support of external service providers to make specific tasks and services more efficient. This occasionally includes passing on personal information to these service providers, for example as part of booking systems. Such external partners act for us as data processors with whom we conclude a formal data processing agreement (DVV). It is important to understand that this data will be processed exclusively according to our instructions and is strictly regulated by the DVV. According to the GDPR definition, we consider any natural or legal entity that processes personal data on our behalf to be our data processor. This includes service providers such as hosting companies, payment processors or other large companies.
Cookies
Our website uses HTTP cookies to store user-specific information. As is common on many websites, these small text files are stored in your browser to record certain user preferences such as language settings or page configurations.
Necessary cookies
These necessary cookies ensure the basic functionality of our website and make navigation easier for you. For example, they allow you to preserve your language settings even when you visit other sites and prevent your choices from being reset when you close the browser.
The storage period of these cookies varies; some are deleted after a short period of time, while others can remain on your device for years. You have control over these cookies and can delete them manually at any time via your browser settings.
Communication
If you contact us using different methods such as telephone, WhatsApp, email or social media, your personal data will be processed. This processing serves the purpose of effectively managing your requests, including the associated booking processes and accounting requirements.
It is also possible that data such as your name and telephone number will be transmitted to you via email for the purpose of communication and stored to answer your inquiries. Such data will be deleted after completion of the business transaction and in accordance with legal requirements.
Legal bases
Your data will be processed on the basis of the following legal provisions:
WhatsApp Privacy Policy
On our website we offer the option of communicating directly with us via WhatsApp using an icon. The service is provided by WhatsApp Inc., a subsidiary of Meta Platforms Inc. (until October 2021, Facebook Inc.), whereby WhatsApp Ireland Limited, 4 Grand Canal Square, Grand Canal Harbour, Dublin 2, Ireland, in Europe is responsible for the service.
Please note that we may not respond to certain requests, particularly those involving internal contractual details, via the Messenger Service. In such cases, we recommend alternative communication channels such as email or telephone. By clicking on the WhatsApp icon you will leave our website and be redirected to WhatsApp. WhatsApp also processes your data in the USA, among other places. We would like to point out that, according to the European Court of Justice, there is currently no adequate level of protection for data transfer to the USA. This can pose various risks to the lawfulness and security of data processing. The WhatsApp data protection regulations apply to the use of WhatsApp.
WhatsApp uses so-called standard contractual clauses (= Art. 46 Para. 2 and 3 GDPR) as the basis for data processing by recipients based in third countries (outside the European Union, Iceland, Liechtenstein, Norway, i.e. in particular in the USA) or data transfer there. Standard Contractual Clauses (SCC) are templates provided by the EU Commission and are intended to ensure that your data also comply with European data protection standards if they are transferred to third countries (such as the USA) and stored there. Through these clauses, WhatsApp undertakes to comply with European data protection standards when processing your relevant data, even if the data is stored, processed and managed in the USA. These clauses are based on an implementation decision of the EU Commission. You can find the Order and the relevant Standard Contractual Clauses, among others here.
You will find information on data transmission at WhatsApp, which corresponds to the standard contractual clauses here.
The WhatsApp data protection regulations apply to the use of WhatsApp. We do not collect any personal data by providing this icon. Further information on data protection when using WhatsApp can be found in the WhatsApp privacy policy.

In addition to traditional banking and credit institutions, we offer various payment service providers to process contractual or legal relationships, based on Art. 6 Para. 1 lit. b GDPR. Below you will find an overview of the data processing and data storage of these payment service providers.
Stripe Privacy Policy
We use a payment tool from the American technology company and online payment service Stripe on our website. For customers within the EU, Stripe Payments Europe Limited is responsible, with its registered office at 1 Grand Canal Street Lower, Grand Canal Dock, Dublin, D02 H210, Ireland. This means that if you choose Stripe as your payment method, your payment will be processed via Stripe Payments. Data required for the payment process is forwarded to Stripe and stored.
The technology company Stripe offers payment solutions for online payments and allows us to offer various payment methods. Stripe handles the entire payment process. Through Stripe, credit card payments can be made directly on the website without redirection, allowing for quick payment processing. It is also possible to make payments with Klarna, EPS and credit cards via Stripe Checkout.
Stripe processes personal data necessary for payment processing that is required to carry out transactions. This includes information such as name, email address, billing address, payment method (credit card number), bank routing number, currency, amount and date of payment, and sometimes transaction history. In addition, Stripe may collect technical data such as IP address and device information for fraud prevention, financial reporting and to fully provide its services. Stripe may also transfer data to countries outside the EU/EEA, ensuring an adequate level of data protection through standard contractual clauses.
Personal data is generally stored for the duration of the service provision. This means that the data will be stored until we terminate the cooperation with Stripe.
You always have the right to information, correction and deletion of your personal data. To exercise your data protection rights or have further questions, you can either Privacy Center from Stripe or Stripe's data protection officer at dpo@stripe.com to contact. You can find out more information about the standard contractual clauses and the data processed through the use of Stripe in the Stripe Privacy Policy.
Legal basis
In addition to the conventional bank/credit institutions, we also offer the payment service provider Stripe for the processing of contractual or legal relationships (Art. 6 Para. 1 lit. b DSGVO). The successful use of the service also requires your consent (Art. 6 Para. 1 lit. a GDPR), insofar as the use of cookies is necessary for the use.
Stripe may also process data in the USA. Given the European Court of Justice's decision invalidating the EU-US Privacy Shield, there remains uncertainty about the appropriate level of protection for data transfers to the US. This can pose various risks to the lawfulness and security of data processing.
In order to ensure the protection of your data when transferred to third countries, especially to the USA, Stripe relies on the standard contractual clauses approved by the European Commission (Article 46 Para. 2 and 3 GDPR). These model contracts are designed to ensure that your personal data enjoys a level of protection comparable to European data protection law even outside the EU/EEA. By applying these clauses, Stripe undertakes to comply with European data protection standards, even if the data is processed in the USA. The application of these clauses is based on an implementing decision of the EU Commission. You can find the resolution and the corresponding standard contractual clauses, among other things here.
eps transfer privacy policy

PSA only collects personal data that is necessary for the implementation and processing of its services or that you have provided voluntarily. They process personal data of contractual partners as part of contract negotiations and processing as well as the development of payment solutions to fulfill contractual obligations. The data processed includes names, contact details and customer details.

External media and content
In order to provide our website with additional information and interactive content, we integrate external services such as Google Maps, OpenStreetMap and Vimeo. Instead of embedding Google Maps directly, we use map images created with OpenStreetMap. If necessary, a button takes you to the desired location or route on Google Maps. Vimeo videos will only be displayed after you agree to Vimeo's data processing and use of cookies. This method allows us to provide you with a user-friendly and informative online experience while still ensuring your privacy.
Online map service: OpenStreetMap data protection declaration

OpenStreetMap is provided by the OpenStreetMap Foundation, St John's Innovation Centre, Cowley Road, Cambridge, CB4 0WS, United Kingdom, based on the Open Data Commons Open Database License (ODbL).
When you visit pages on our website that contain OpenStreetMap maps, data is transferred to OpenStreetMap servers.

Online map service: Google Maps data protection declaration
In order to give you an idea of locations and routes, we use references on our website to the online map service Google Maps, operated by Google Ireland Limited (Gordon House, Barrow Street, Dublin 4, Ireland), a subsidiary of Google LLC, USA . Instead of directly embedding, we use self-created images of the respective maps and connect them with a button that redirects to the desired location or route on Google Maps.
This method ensures that no personal data is automatically transmitted to Google when you simply visit our website. As soon as you actively use the button to access Google Maps, Google may collect data about this interaction, including your IP address and information about the use of the map service. The use of Google Maps after leaving our website is therefore subject to Google's data protection regulations and terms of use.
Legal basis
The provision of a redirect to Google Maps on our website is based on our legitimate interest in offering you detailed information about the company's location and tour routes (Art. 6 Para. 1 f GDPR). A direct data transfer to Google only takes place after your consent (Art. 6 Para. 1 a GDPR) by pressing the button. This actively selects redirection to Google Maps.
Please note that Google may process data in the USA. When transferring data to third countries such as the USA, Google uses standard contractual clauses as a guarantee of an adequate level of data protection.
