This website uses Google Analytics, a web analytics service provided by Google Inc ("Google"). Google Analytics uses "cookies", which are text files placed on your computer, to help the website analyse how users use the site. The information generated by the cookie about your use of this website is usually transmitted to a Google server in the USA and stored there. However, if IP anonymisation is activated on this website, your IP address will first be truncated by Google within member states of the European Union or in other signatory states to the Agreement on the European Economic Area. Only in exceptional cases will the full IP address be transmitted to a Google server in the USA and truncated there.
On behalf of the operator of this website, Google will use this information to analyse your use of the website, to compile reports on website activity and to provide the website operator with other services relating to website activity and internet usage.

We use the reCAPTCHA service from Google Inc (Google) to protect your orders via the Internet form. The query serves to differentiate whether the input is made by a human or abusively by automated, machine processing. The query includes sending the IP address and any other data required by Google for the reCAPTCHA service to Google. For this purpose, your input is transmitted to Google and used there. By using reCaptcha, you agree that the recognition you provide will be used to digitise old works.

Only in exceptional cases will the full IP address be transmitted to a Google server in the USA and truncated there. Google will use this information on behalf of the operator of this website to analyse your use of this service. The IP address transmitted by your browser as part of reCaptcha will not be merged with other Google data. The deviating data protection provisions of Google apply to this data.

Our website uses so-called "social plug-ins", i.e. plug-ins from social networks, in particular the "Share" button and the page plug-in of the provider "Facebook", whose website facebook.com is operated by Facebook Inc, 1601 S. California Ave, Palo Alto, CA 94304, USA. Facebook Ireland Limited, Hanover Reach, 5-7 Hanover Quay, Dublin 2, Ireland is responsible for the German website facebook.de. The plug-ins are usually labelled with a Facebook logo.

When you visit our site, a direct connection is established between your browser and the server of the social media platform via the plugin. The platform then receives the information that you have visited our site with your IP address. If you click on the "plugin button" while you are logged into your social media account, you can link the content of our site to your profile. This allows the social network to associate your visit to our site with your user account. We would like to point out that, as the provider of the page, we have no knowledge of the content of the transmitted data or its use by the social media platform. We have no influence on the type and scope of the data that is then collected by the social networks. The purpose and scope of the data collection and the further processing and use of the data by the respective social networks as well as your rights in this regard and setting options to protect your privacy can be found in the data protection information of the respective social networks, for Facebook at http://www.facebook.com/about/privacy/ and http://www.facebook.com/help/?faq=186325668085084.

If you do not want Facebook to assign the data collected via our website directly to your Facebook profile, you must log out of Facebook before visiting our website. You can also completely prevent the Facebook plugins from loading with add-ons for your browser, e.g.

We use a social media plugin from TripAdvisor Inc, 400 1st Avenue, Needham, MA 02494 USA on our website. TripAdvisor collects reviews from its users about tourist offers and is an online company. These reviews are combined with booking recommendations. We use the TripAdvisor widget to present customer opinions about us in a neutral way. This constitutes a legitimate interest within the meaning of Art. 6 para. 1 lit. f GDPR. TripAdvisor places a cookie on your computer as soon as you access a page with the widget. TripAdvisor privacy policy: https://tripadvisor.mediaroom.com/CHDE-privacy-policy

We use content or service offers from third-party providers within our website for the analysis, optimization and economic operation of our online offer in order to integrate their content and services, such as videos or fonts. This always presupposes that the third-party providers of this content are aware of the IP address of the user, as they would not be able to send the content to their browser without the IP address. The IP address is therefore required to display this content. We endeavor to only use content whose respective providers only use the IP address to deliver the content.

• External fonts from Google, Inc, https://www.google.com/fonts  ("Google Fonts"). Google Fonts are integrated by accessing a Google server (usually in the USA).

• Use of OpenStreetMap
  We use a map section from OpenStreetMap (https://www.openstreetmap.de/ ) on our website to show you the route to our company and to make it easier for you to plan your journey.
  OpenStreetMap is an open source mapping tool. Your IP address is forwarded to OpenStreetMap so that the map can be displayed to you. You can find out how OpenStreetMap stores your data on the OpenStreetMap data protection page here https://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/DE:Datenschutz  and here https://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/DE:Legal_FAQ.
