We will only disclose your personal data to third parties if:

• you have given your express consent pursuant to Article 6(1)(a) GDPR;

4. Cookies

We use cookies on our website. Cookies are small files that your browser automatically creates and stores on your device (laptop, tablet, smartphone, etc.) when you visit our website. Cookies do not cause any damage to your device and do not contain viruses, Trojans or other malware.

A cookie stores information arising in connection with the specific device used. However, this does not mean that we obtain direct knowledge of your identity.

On the one hand, cookies are used to make our website more user-friendly. For example, we use so-called session cookies to recognise that you have already visited individual pages of our website. These are automatically deleted after you leave our website.

In addition, we also use temporary cookies to improve usability. These are stored on your device for a defined period of time. If you visit our website again in order to use our services, it will automatically be recognised that you have visited us before and which entries and settings you made, so that you do not have to enter them again.

On the other hand, we use cookies to record the use of our website statistically and to analyse it for the purpose of optimising our website and services for you (see Section 5). These cookies enable us to recognise automatically, when you return to our website, that you have visited us before. These cookies are automatically deleted after a defined period of time.

The data processed by cookies are necessary for the purposes described above in order to safeguard our legitimate interests and those of third parties pursuant to Article 6(1)(f) GDPR.

Most browsers accept cookies automatically. However, you can configure your browser so that no cookies are stored on your computer, or so that a notice always appears before a new cookie is created. Please note, however, that disabling cookies completely may mean that you are unable to use all the functions of our website.

Web Analytics / Tracking

We use the web analytics software Matomo (www.matomo.org) to carry out statistical analysis of user behaviour on this website. For the same purpose, anonymous user profiles may be created from this data. Cookies are used for this purpose.

The data collected by Matomo are processed anonymously on our server. If you do not agree to the storage and analysis of this data arising from your visit, you may object to such storage and use at any time. In that case, an opt-out cookie will be stored in your browser to ensure that Matomo does not collect any session data.

Please note that if you delete all cookies from your browser, the opt-out cookie will also be deleted and may need to be reactivated by you.

If you have configured your browser to reject tracking, Ferienhaus am Mattenweg will of course respect this setting.

5. Your Rights

• pursuant to Article 15 GDPR, to request access to the personal data we process about you. In particular, you may request information about the purposes of the processing, the categories of personal data concerned, the categories of recipients to whom your data have been or will be disclosed, the planned retention period, the existence of a right to rectification, erasure, restriction of processing or objection, the existence of a right to lodge a complaint, the source of your data if it was not collected by us, and the existence of automated decision-making, including profiling, and, where applicable, meaningful information about the logic involved;
• pursuant to Article 16 GDPR, to request without undue delay the rectification of inaccurate personal data stored by us, or the completion of incomplete personal data;
• pursuant to Article 17 GDPR, to request the erasure of your personal data stored by us, unless processing is required for exercising the right to freedom of expression and information, for compliance with a legal obligation, for reasons of public interest, or for the establishment, exercise or defence of legal claims;
• pursuant to Article 18 GDPR, to request restriction of processing of your personal data where you contest the accuracy of the data, the processing is unlawful but you oppose its erasure, we no longer need the data but you require them for the establishment, exercise or defence of legal claims, or you have objected to processing pursuant to Article 21 GDPR;
• pursuant to Article 20 GDPR, to receive the personal data you have provided to us in a structured, commonly used and machine-readable format, or to request that those data be transmitted to another controller;
• pursuant to Article 7(3) GDPR, to withdraw your consent at any time with effect for the future. This means that we may no longer continue the data processing based on that consent in the future; and
• pursuant to Article 77 GDPR, to lodge a complaint with a supervisory authority. As a rule, you may contact the supervisory authority at your usual place of residence, your place of work, or our registered office.

6. Right to Object

If your personal data are processed on the basis of legitimate interests pursuant to Article 6(1)(f) GDPR, you have the right, pursuant to Article 21 GDPR, to object to the processing of your personal data on grounds relating to your particular situation or where the objection is directed against direct marketing.

In the latter case, you have a general right to object, which we will implement without requiring you to specify any particular circumstances.

If you wish to exercise your right to withdraw consent or your right to object, it is sufficient to send an email to info@ferienhaus-am-mattenweg.de.

7. Data Security

During your visit to our website, we use the widely adopted SSL procedure (Secure Socket Layer) in conjunction with the highest level of encryption supported by your browser. As a rule, this is 256-bit encryption. If your browser does not support 256-bit encryption, we will instead use 128-bit v3 technology. You can recognise whether an individual page of our website is transmitted in encrypted form by the closed key or padlock symbol displayed in your browser’s status bar.

We also use appropriate technical and organisational security measures to protect your data against accidental or intentional manipulation, partial or complete loss, destruction, or unauthorised access by third parties. Our security measures are continuously improved in line with technological developments.
