DATA PROTECTION OF CLIPPER BOARDINGHOUSE GMBH&CO. KG

 

We are pleased that you are visiting our website and thank you for your interest in our hotels. The protection of personal data is important to us. Therefore, the processing of personal data, such as the name, address, e-mail address, or telephone number of a data subject shall be in line with applicable European and national law.


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.


You can of course revoke your declaration(s) of consent at any time with effect for the future. To do so, please contact the person responsible. You will find the contact details at the bottom of this privacy policy.


In the following, Clipper Boardinghouse GmbH & Co. KG (hereinafter referred to as "we", "us", etc.) would like to inform the public about the type, scope and purpose of the personal data processed by it. Furthermore, data subjects are informed of the rights to which they are entitled by means of this data protection declaration.




DEFINITION OF TERMS

Our data protection declaration is based on the terminology used by the European Directive and Regulation-maker when adopting the EU General Data Protection Regulation (hereinafter referred to as: "GDPR"). Our data protection declaration 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 terms used in advance.


We use the following terms, among others, in this data protection declaration and on our website:


Personal data means any information relating to an identified or identifiable natural person (hereinafter referred to as "data subject" or "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.


Data subject means any identified or identifiable natural person whose personal data are processed by the controller.


Processing is any operation or set of operations which is performed upon personal data, whether or not by automatic means, such as collection, recording, organisation, filing, storage, adaptation or alteration, retrieval, consultation, use, disclosure by transmission, dissemination or otherwise making available, alignment or combination, restriction, erasure or destruction.


Restriction of processing is the marking of stored personal data with the aim of limiting their future processing.


Profiling is any automated processing of personal data consisting in using such personal data to evaluate certain personal aspects relating to a natural person, in particular to analyse or predict aspects relating to that natural person's performance at work, economic situation, health, personal preferences, interests, reliability, behaviour, location or change of location.


Pseudonymisation means the processing of personal data in such a way that the personal data can no longer be related to a specific data subject without additional information, provided that such additional information is kept separately and is subject to technical and organisational measures which ensure that the personal data are not attributed to an identified or identifiable natural person.


The controller or person responsible for 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 designation may be provided for under Union or Member State law.


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


Recipient means a natural or legal person, public authority, agency or other body to whom personal data are disclosed, whether or not a third party. However, public authorities that may receive personal data in the context of a specific investigative task under Union or Member State law shall not be considered as recipients.


Third party means any natural or legal person, public authority, agency or body other than the data subject, the controller, the processor and the persons authorised to process the personal data under the direct responsibility of the controller or the processor.


Consent means any freely given specific and informed indication of the data subject's wishes, in the form of a statement or other unambiguous affirmative act, by which the data subject signifies his or her agreement to the processing of personal data relating to him or her.

 

RIGHTS OF THE DATA SUBJECT


Right to confirmation: Every data subject has the right to obtain from the controller confirmation as to whether personal data relating to him or her are being processed. If a data subject wishes to exercise this right of confirmation, he or she may, at any time, contact the controller.


Right of access: Any person concerned by the processing of personal data has the right to obtain from the controller, at any time and free of charge, information about the personal data relating to him or her that are stored and a copy of that information. Furthermore, the European Directive and Regulation has granted the data subject access to the following information:


  • The purposes of the processing
  • The categories of personal data processed
  • The recipients or categories of recipients to whom the personal data have been or will be disclosed, in particular in the case of recipients in third countries or international organisations.
  • If possible, the planned duration for which the personal data will be stored or, if this is not possible, the criteria for determining this duration
  • The existence of a right to obtain the rectification or erasure of personal data concerning him or her, or to obtain the restriction of processing by the controller, or a right to object to such processing
  • The existence of a right of appeal to a supervisory authority.
  • If the personal data are not collected from the data subject: Any available information on the origin of the data

The existence of automated decision-making, including profiling, pursuant to Article 22(1) and (4) of the GDPR and, at least in these cases, meaningful information about the logic involved and the scope and intended effects of such processing for the data subject.

Furthermore, the data subject shall have the right to obtain information as to whether personal data have been transferred to a third country or to an international organisation. If this is the case, the data subject shall also have the right to obtain information on the appropriate safeguards in relation to the transfer. If a data subject wishes to exercise this right of access, he or she may contact the controller at any time.


Right of rectification: Any person concerned by the processing of personal data has the right to obtain the rectification without delay of inaccurate personal data relating to him or her. Furthermore, the data subject has the right to request the completion of incomplete personal data, including by means of a supplementary declaration, taking into account the purposes of the processing.

If a data subject wishes to exercise this right of rectification, he or she may, at any time, contact the controller.


Right to erasure (right to be forgotten): Any person concerned by the processing of personal data has the right to obtain from the controller the erasure without delay of personal data relating to him or her, where one of the following grounds applies and insofar as the processing is not necessary:


  • The personal data were collected or otherwise processed for purposes for which they are no longer necessary.
  • The data subject revokes the consent on which the processing was based pursuant to Article 6(1)(a) of the GDPR or Article 9(2)(a) of the GDPR and there is no other legal basis for the processing.
  • The data subject objects to the processing pursuant to Article 21(1) DSGVO and there are no overriding legitimate grounds for the processing, or the data subject objects to the processing pursuant to Article 21(2) DSGVO.
  • The personal data have been processed unlawfully.
  • The erasure of the personal data is necessary for compliance with a legal obligation under Union or Member State law to which the controller is subject.
  • The personal data have been collected in relation to information society services offered pursuant to Article 8(1) of the GDPR.

If one of the aforementioned reasons applies, and a data subject wishes to arrange for the deletion of personal data stored by us, he or she may, at any time, contact the controller. The data subject's request for erasure will then be complied with immediately.

If the personal data have been made public by us and our company as a controller is obliged to erase the personal data pursuant to Article 17 (1) of the Data Protection Regulation, we shall implement reasonable measures, including technical measures, taking into account the available technology and the cost of implementation, in order to inform other data controllers which process the published personal data that the data subject has requested from those other data controllers to erase all links to or copies or replications of the personal data, unless the processing is necessary. The controller will then arrange the necessary in individual cases.


Right to restriction of processing: any person concerned by the processing of personal data has the right to obtain from the controller the restriction of processing where one of the following conditions is met:

The accuracy of the personal data is contested by the data subject for a period enabling the controller to verify the accuracy of the personal data.

The processing is unlawful, the data subject objects to the erasure of the personal data and requests instead the restriction of the use of the personal data.

The controller no longer needs the personal data for the purposes of the processing, but the data subject needs it for the assertion, exercise or defence of legal claims.

The data subject has objected to the processing pursuant to Article 21(1) of the GDPR and it is not yet clear whether the legitimate grounds of the controller override those of the data subject.

If one of the aforementioned conditions is met, and a data subject wishes to request the restriction of personal data stored by us, he or she may, at any time, contact the controller. The restriction of processing will then be arranged immediately. 


Right to data portability: Every person affected by the processing of personal data has the right to receive the personal data concerning him or her, which have been provided by the data subject to a controller, in a structured, common and machine-readable format. He or she also has the right to transmit this data to another controller without hindrance by the controller to whom the personal data were provided, provided that the processing is based on consent pursuant to Article 6(1)(a) of the GDPR or Article 9(2)(a) of the GDPR or on a contract pursuant to Article 6(1)(b) of the GDPR and the processing is carried out with the aid of automated procedures, unless the processing is necessary for the performance of a task carried out in the public interest or in the exercise of official authority vested in the controller.

Furthermore, when exercising the right to data portability pursuant to Article 20(1) of the GDPR, the data subject has the right to obtain that the personal data be transferred directly from one controller to another controller, where technically feasible and provided that this does not adversely affect the rights and freedoms of other individuals.

In order to assert the right to data portability, the data subject may at any time contact the controller.


Right to object: Any person affected by the processing of personal data has the right to object at any time, on grounds relating to his or her particular situation, to the processing of personal data concerning him or her which is carried out on the basis of Article 6(1)(e) DSGVO or Article 6(1)(f) DSGVO. This also applies to profiling based on these provisions.

We shall no longer process the personal data in the event of the objection, unless we can demonstrate compelling legitimate grounds for the processing which override the interests, rights and freedoms of the data subject, or for the assertion, exercise or defence of legal claims.

If we process personal data for the purpose of direct marketing, the data subject shall have the right to object at any time to processing of personal data processed for such marketing. This also applies to profiling insofar as it is related to such direct marketing. If the data subject objects to us to the processing for direct marketing purposes, we will no longer process the personal data for these purposes.

In addition, the data subject has the right, on grounds relating to his or her particular situation, to object to processing of personal data concerning him or her which is carried out by us for scientific or historical research purposes, or for statistical purposes pursuant to Article 89(1) of the Data Protection Regulation, unless such processing is necessary for the performance of a task carried out in the public interest. In order to exercise the right to object, the data subject may directly contact the controller. The data subject is also free to exercise his or her right to object by means of automated procedures using technical specifications in the context of the use of information society services, notwithstanding Directive 2002/58/EC.


Automated decisions on a case-by-case basis, including profiling: Every data subject shall have the right not to be subject to a decision based solely on automated processing, including profiling, which produces legal effects concerning him or her or similarly significantly affects him or her, where the decision:


Is not necessary for the conclusion or performance of a contract between the data subject and the controller; or

Permitted by Union or Member State legislation to which the controller is subject, and that legislation contains appropriate measures to safeguard the rights and freedoms and legitimate interests of the data subject; or

With the express consent of the data subject.

If the decision is necessary for entering into, or the performance of, a contract between the data subject and the controller, or if it is made with the data subject's explicit consent, we shall implement suitable measures to safeguard the data subject's rights and freedoms and legitimate interests, including at least the right to obtain the data subject's involvement on the part of the controller, to express his or her point of view and contest the decision.

If the data subject wishes to exercise the rights concerning automated decisions, he or she may, at any time, contact the controller.


Right to withdraw consent under data protection law: Any person concerned by the processing of personal data has the right to withdraw consent to the processing of personal data at any time.

If the data subject wishes to exercise his or her right to withdraw consent, he or she may contact the controller at any time.


Right to lodge a complaint with a supervisory authority: Without prejudice to any other administrative or judicial remedy, every data subject shall have the right to lodge a complaint with a supervisory authority, in particular in the Member State of his or her habitual residence, place of work or the place of the alleged infringement, if the data subject considers that the processing of personal data relating to him or her infringes this Regulation.

COOPERATION WITH CONTRACT PROCESSORS AND THIRD PARTIES


If, in the course of our processing, we disclose data to other persons and companies (order processors or third parties), transmit it to them or otherwise grant them access to the data, this will only be done on the basis of a legal permission (e.g. if a transmission of the data to third parties, such as to payment service providers, is required pursuant to Art. 6 para. 1 lit. b DSGVO is necessary for the performance of a contract), you have consented, a legal obligation provides for this or on the basis of our legitimate interests (e.g. when using agents, web hosts, etc.).If we commission third parties with the processing of data on the basis of a so-called "order processing agreement", this is done on the basis of Art. 28 DSGVO.


ROUTINE DELETION AND

BLOCKING OF PERSONAL DATA


The controller shall process (in this sense also: store) personal data of the data subject only for the period of time necessary to achieve the purpose of storage or where provided for by the European Directive and Regulation or other legislator in laws or regulations to which the controller is subject.


If the storage purpose ceases to apply or if a storage period prescribed by the European Directive and Regulation Maker or another competent legislator expires, the personal data shall be routinely blocked or deleted in accordance with the statutory provisions.


DATA PROTECTION IN APPLICATIONS

AND IN THE APPLICATION PROCEDURE


The controller collects and processes the personal data of applicants for the purpose of managing the application procedure. The processing may also be carried out electronically. This is in particular the case when an applicant submits relevant application documents to the controller by electronic means, for example by e-mail. 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 six months after the notification of the rejection decision, provided that no other legitimate interests of the controller conflict with such deletion. Other legitimate interest in this sense is, for example, a duty to provide evidence in proceedings under the General Equal Treatment Act (AGG).


SECURITY

We take numerous technical and organisational measures to protect your personal data against accidental or unlawful destruction, loss or alteration and against unauthorised disclosure or access.

Nevertheless, Internet-based data transmissions, for example, can always have security vulnerabilities, 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.


ENCRYPTION

For security reasons and to protect the transmission of confidential content, such as enquiries that you send to us as the site operator, this site uses SSL or TLS encryption. You can recognise an encrypted connection by the fact that the address line of the browser changes from "http://" to "https://" and by the lock symbol in the browser line.

If encryption is activated, the data you transmit to us cannot be read by third parties.


COLLECTION OF GENERAL DATA AND INFORMATION

Our website collects a series of general data and information with each call-up of the website by a data subject or an automated system. This general data and information is stored in the log files of the server. The following can be collected:


the browser types and versions used

the operating system used by the accessing system

the website from which an accessing system arrives at our website (so-called referrer)

the sub-websites which are accessed via an accessing system on our website

the date and time of an access to the website

a web protocol address (IP address)

the Internet service provider of the accessing system

other similar data and information that serve to avert danger in the event of attacks on our information technology systems.

When using these general data and information, we do not draw any conclusions about the data subject. This information is rather required in order to:


  • deliver the contents of our website correctly
  • optimise the contents of our website and, if necessary, the advertising for it
  • ensure the long-term functionality of our information technology systems and the technology of our website
  • provide law enforcement authorities with the information necessary for prosecution in the event of a cyber attack.
  • Therefore, the data and information collected is, on the one hand, statistically evaluated by us and, on the other hand, it is evaluated with the aim of increasing the data protection and data security of our enterprise so as to ultimately ensure an optimal level of protection for the personal data we process. The anonymous data of the server log files are stored separately from any personal data provided by a data subject.


This data is not merged with other data sources.


The collection of this data is based on Art. 6 para. 1 lit. f DSGVO. The website operator has a legitimate interest in the technically error-free presentation and optimisation of its website - for this purpose, the server log files must be collected.

 

REQUEST BY E-MAIL, PHONE OR FAX

If you contact us by e-mail, telephone or fax, your enquiry including all resulting personal data (name, enquiry) will be stored and processed by us for the purpose of processing your request. We do not pass on this data without your consent.

The processing of this data is based on Art. 6 (1) lit. b DSGVO if your request is related to the performance of a contract or is necessary for the implementation of pre-contractual measures. In all other cases, the processing is based on our legitimate interest in the effective handling of the enquiries addressed to us (Art. 6 (1) (f) DSGVO) or on your consent (Art. 6 (1) (a) DSGVO) if this has been requested.

The data you send us via contact requests will remain with us until you request us to delete it, revoke your consent to store it or the purpose for storing the data no longer applies (e.g. after your request has been processed). Mandatory statutory provisions - in particular statutory retention periods - remain unaffected.


 

DATA TRANSFER FROM FORMS

The data subject has the possibility to register on the website of the controller for a data transmission via forms by providing personal data. The personal data transmitted to the data controller is indicated in the respective input mask used for the entries. The personal data entered by the data subject is collected and stored exclusively for internal use by the controller and for its own purposes. Data transmission from forms is always encrypted.

The controller may arrange for the data to be transferred to one or more processors (for example, a parcel service provider), who will also use the personal data exclusively for an internal use attributable to the controller.

The data transmission on the controller's website also saves the IP address assigned by the internet service provider (ISP) of the data subject, the date as well as the time of the transmission. The storage of this data takes place against the background that only in this way can the misuse of the services offered be prevented and, if necessary, this data enables criminal offences and copyright infringements that have been committed to be clarified. In this respect, the storage of this data is necessary for the protection of the data controller. As a matter of principle, this data is not disclosed to third parties unless there is a legal obligation to disclose it or the disclosure serves criminal or legal prosecution purposes.

The entries of the data subject under voluntary provision of personal data serve the purpose of the controller to offer the data subject content or services which, due to the nature of the matter, can only be offered to these users.

The processing of this data is based on Art. 6 (1) lit. b DSGVO if your request is related to the performance of a contract or is necessary for the performance of pre-contractual measures. In all other cases, the processing is based on our legitimate interest in the effective handling of the enquiries addressed to us (Art. 6 (1) (f) DSGVO) or on your consent (Art. 6 (1) (a) DSGVO) if this has been requested.

The data you send us via contact requests will remain with us until you request us to delete it, revoke your consent to store it or the purpose for storing the data no longer applies (e.g. after your request has been processed). Mandatory statutory provisions - in particular statutory retention periods - remain unaffected.


 

LINKS TO OTHER WEBSITES

This website contains links to other websites (so-called external links).

As the provider, we are responsible for our own content in accordance with the applicable European and national legal provisions. Links to content provided by other providers are to be distinguished from this own content. We have no influence on whether the operators of other websites comply with the applicable European and national legal provisions. Please refer to the data protection declarations provided on the respective website for more information.



COOKIES

In order to make our website user-friendly for you and to optimally adapt it to your needs, we use cookies. Cookies are small text files that are sent to your browser by a web server as soon as you visit a website and are stored locally on your end device (PC, notebook, tablet, smartphone, etc.).

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 by which websites and servers can be assigned to the specific web browser in which the cookie was stored. This enables the websites and servers visited to distinguish the individual browser of the person concerned from other web browsers that contain other cookies. A specific web browser can be recognised and identified via the unique cookie ID. This information is used to automatically recognise you when you visit the website again with the same terminal device and to facilitate your navigation.

You can also consent to or refuse cookies - including for web tracking - via your web browser settings. You can configure your browser in such a way that the acceptance of cookies is refused in principle or you are informed in advance if a cookie is to be stored. In this case, however, the functionality of the website may be impaired (for example, when placing orders). Your browser also offers a function to delete cookies (for example via "Delete browser data"). This is possible in all common web browsers. You can find more information on this in the operating instructions or also in the settings of your browser.


First-party cookies: First-party cookies refer to permanent cookies that are stored on the computer and only lose their validity when the expiry date assigned to them has expired. The word "party" refers to the domain from which the cookie originates. In contrast to third-party cookies, first-party cookies usually originate from the website operator itself. They are therefore not accessible by browsers across domains. For example, website A issues a cookie A, which is not recognised by website B, but can only be recognised by website A again. In this way, data cannot be passed on to third parties.


Third-party cookies: With a third-party cookie, the cookie is set and collected by a third party. These cookies are mostly used by advertisers who use the cookies to collect information about the website visitor via their advertising placements on other websites. These are data records that are stored in the user's web browser when he visits a page with advertising. If he visits a page with advertising from the same provider again, he will be recognised.


 

BOOKING SYSTEM ONE PAGE BOOKING

For online room reservations we use the service OnePageBooking of HotelNetSolutions GmbH, Genthiner Straße 8, 10785 Berlin. By clicking on the button "Check availability" a browser window will open which will redirect you to the website of OnePageBooking.


If you would like to book a room with us, it is necessary for the conclusion of the contract that you provide your personal data, which we require for the processing of your booking. Mandatory data required for the processing of the contract are marked separately, other data are voluntary. The data is entered in an input mask and transmitted to us and stored.


Data is also passed on to the corresponding payment service providers. Data is only passed on to third parties if it is necessary for the purpose of processing the contract or for billing purposes or for collecting the payment, or if you have expressly consented to this. In this respect, we only pass on the data required in each case. The data recipients are: the respective delivery/shipping company (forwarding of name and address), collection companies, insofar as the payment must be collected (forwarding of name, address, order details), payment institutions for the purpose of collecting debts, insofar as you have selected direct debit as the payment method, as well as payment service providers - depending on the selection of the payment method.


The legal basis is Art. 6 para. 1 lit. b DSGVO. With regard to the voluntary data, the legal basis for the processing of the data is Art. 6 para. 1 lit. a DSGVO. There is an order processing agreement between us and HotelNetSolutions GmbH.


The mandatory data collected is necessary for the fulfilment of the contract with the user (for the purpose of providing the goods or service and confirming the content of the contract). We therefore use the data to answer your enquiries, to process your booking, if necessary to check creditworthiness or to recover a debt and for the purpose of technical administration of the websites. The voluntary data is used to prevent misuse and, if necessary, to investigate criminal offences.


The data is deleted as soon as it is no longer required to achieve the purpose for which it was collected. Due to commercial and tax law requirements, we are obliged to store your address, payment and order data for a period of ten years after the execution of the contract. However, we restrict processing after 6 years, i.e. your data is only used to comply with legal obligations. If a continuing obligation exists between us and the user, we store the data for the entire duration of the contract and for 10 years thereafter (see above). With regard to data provided voluntarily, we will delete the data upon expiry of 6 years after execution of the contract, provided that no further contract is concluded with the user during this period; in this case, the data will be deleted upon expiry of 6 years after execution of the last contract.


If the data is required for the performance of a contract or for the performance of pre-contractual measures, early deletion of the data is only possible insofar as contractual or legal obligations do not prevent deletion. Otherwise, you are free to have the personal data provided during registration completely deleted from the data stock of the person responsible. With regard to the voluntary data, you can declare your revocation to the person responsible at any time. In this case, the voluntary data will be deleted immediately.

In this respect, we only pass on the data required in each case. The data recipients are: the respective delivery/shipping company (forwarding of name and address), collection companies, insofar as the payment must be collected (forwarding of name, address, order details), payment institutions for the purpose of collecting debts, insofar as you have selected direct debit as the payment method, as well as payment service providers - depending on the selection of the payment method.

OUR SOCIAL MEDIA PRESENCE

Data processing through social networks


We maintain publicly accessible profiles on social networks. The individual social networks used by us can be found below.


Social networks such as Facebook, Twitter etc. can generally comprehensively analyse your user behaviour when you visit their website or a website with integrated social media content (e.g. like buttons or advertising banners). By visiting our social media presences, numerous data protection-relevant processing operations are triggered. In detail:


If you are logged into your social media account and visit our social media presence, the operator of the social media portal can assign this visit to your user account. However, your personal data may also be collected under certain circumstances if you are not logged in or do not have an account with the respective social media portal. In this case, this data collection takes place, for example, via cookies that are stored on your end device or by recording your IP address.


With the help of the data collected in this way, the operators of the social media portals can create user profiles in which your preferences and interests are stored. In this way, interest-based advertising can be displayed to you inside and outside the respective social media presence. Provided you have an account with the respective social network, the interest-based advertising may be displayed on all devices on which you are or were logged in.


Please also note that we are not able to track all processing procedures on the social media portals. Depending on the provider, further processing procedures may therefore be carried out by the operators of the social media portals. For details, please refer to the terms of use and data protection provisions of the respective social media portals.


 


Legal basis


Our social media presences are intended to ensure the most comprehensive possible presence on the Internet. This is a legitimate interest within the meaning of Art. 6 (1) lit. f DSGVO. The analysis processes initiated by the social networks may be based on different legal grounds, which are to be stated by the operators of the social networks (e.g. consent within the meaning of Art. 6 para. 1 lit. a DSGVO).


 


Person responsible and assertion of rights


If you visit one of our social media sites (e.g. Facebook), we are jointly responsible with the operator of the social media platform for the data processing operations triggered during this visit. In principle, you can assert your rights (information, correction, deletion, restriction of processing, data portability and complaint) both vis-à-vis us and vis-à-vis the operator of the respective social media portal (e.g. vis-à-vis Facebook).


Please note that despite the joint responsibility with the social media portal operators, we do not have full influence on the data processing procedures of the social media portals. Our options are largely determined by the corporate policy of the respective provider.

 

STORAGE DURATION

The data collected directly by us via the social media presence is deleted from our systems as soon as the purpose for storing it no longer applies, you request us to delete it, revoke your consent to store it or the purpose for storing the data no longer applies. Stored cookies remain on your end device until you delete them. Mandatory legal provisions - in particular retention periods - remain unaffected.


We have no influence on the storage period of your data, which is stored by the operators of the social networks for their own purposes. For details, please contact the operators of the social networks directly (e.g. in their privacy policy, see below).

 

FACEBOOK

We have a profile on Facebook. The provider of this service is Meta Platforms Ireland Limited, 4 Grand Canal Square, Dublin 2, Ireland (hereinafter referred to as "Facebook"). According to Facebook, the data collected is also transferred to the USA and other third countries.
