Privacy policy

How this private preview works

The enquiry form displays entries locally in your browser. It does not send an enquiry or make a booking or payment. Font files are hosted locally. Maps and visitor information are external links that open only when selected. The website project includes no newsletter sign-up, analytics or advertising scripts.

The following sections originate from the previous website. Hosting, form processing, booking, payment services and third-party integrations must be checked against the final WordPress system. They do not describe additional features of this private preview.

Various personal data is collected when you use this website. Personal data means data that can be used to identify you personally. This privacy policy explains what data we collect and what we use it for. It also explains how and for what purpose this happens.

Information about the controller

The controller responsible for data processing on this website is:

Hotel-Restaurant ‘Zum Schänzchen’ e.K.

Proprietor Hans-Josef Hoeren

Am Schänzchen 5

41334 Nettetal

Telephone: 02153 – 91 57 0

Email: info@zumschaenzchen.de

The controller is the natural or legal person who, alone or jointly with others, determines the purposes and means of processing personal data, such as names, email addresses or similar information.

Withdrawing your consent to data processing

Many data processing operations are possible only with your express consent. You can withdraw consent you have already given at any time. An informal email to us is sufficient. Withdrawal does not affect the lawfulness of data processing carried out before the withdrawal.

Right to complain to the competent supervisory authority

In the event of a breach of data protection law, the person concerned has the right to lodge a complaint with the competent supervisory authority. The competent authority for data protection matters is the state data protection commissioner of the German federal state in which our company is based. Information and contact details are available from the North Rhine-Westphalia data protection authority via the following link.

Right to data portability

You have the right to receive data that we process automatically on the basis of your consent or in performance of a contract, either for yourself or for a third party, in a commonly used, machine-readable format. If you request direct transfer of the data to another controller, this will be done only where technically feasible.

SSL or TLS encryption

For security reasons and to protect the transmission of confidential content, such as orders or enquiries that you send to us as the website operator, this site uses SSL or TLS encryption. You can recognise an encrypted connection when the browser's address line changes from ‘http://’ to ‘https://’ and a padlock symbol appears in the browser bar.

When SSL or TLS encryption is enabled, the data you transmit to us cannot be read by third parties.

Encrypted payments on this website

If, after entering into a contract involving payment, you are required to provide us with your payment details, such as an account number for direct debit authorisation, this data is needed to process payment.

Payments using the usual payment methods, such as Visa/MasterCard or direct debit, are processed exclusively over an encrypted SSL or TLS connection. You can recognise an encrypted connection when the browser's address line changes from ‘http://’ to ‘https://’ and a padlock symbol appears in the browser bar.

With encrypted communication, the payment data you transmit to us cannot be read by third parties.

Access, blocking and erasure

Within the framework of applicable law, you have the right at any time to receive information free of charge about your stored personal data, its origin and recipients, and the purpose of processing. Where applicable, you also have the right to have this data corrected, blocked or erased. For this or any other questions about personal data, you can contact us at any time using the address given in the legal notice.

Objection to promotional emails

We object to the use of contact details published as part of the mandatory legal notice to send advertising or information material that has not been expressly requested. The operators of these pages expressly reserve the right to take legal action if unsolicited advertising information, such as spam emails, is sent.

3. Data collection on our website · Cookies

These web pages sometimes use cookies. Cookies do not damage your computer and do not contain viruses. They help make our services more user-friendly, effective and secure. Cookies are small text files placed on your computer and stored by your browser.

Most of the cookies we use are session cookies. They are deleted automatically at the end of your visit. Other cookies remain stored on your device until you delete them. These cookies enable us to recognise your browser on your next visit.

You can configure your browser to notify you when cookies are set and allow them only in individual cases, reject cookies in certain cases or altogether, and automatically delete cookies when you close the browser. Disabling cookies may limit the functionality of this website.

Cookies required to carry out electronic communications or to provide certain functions you have requested, such as a shopping basket, are stored on the basis of Article 6(1)(f) GDPR. The website operator has a legitimate interest in storing cookies to provide its services without technical errors and in an optimised manner. Any other cookies that are stored, such as cookies used to analyse your browsing behaviour, are addressed separately in this privacy policy.

Server log files

The provider of these pages automatically collects and stores information in server log files, which your browser transmits to us automatically. This information comprises:

Browser type and version

Operating system used

Referrer URL

Host name of the accessing computer

Time of the server request

IP address

This data is not combined with other data sources.

The legal basis for this processing is Article 6(1)(f) GDPR, which permits data processing for the performance of a contract or pre-contractual measures.

Contact form

If you send us an enquiry using the contact form, we store the information you provide in the form, including the contact details you enter, to process the enquiry and deal with any follow-up questions. We do not pass on this data without your consent.

The data entered in the contact form is therefore processed solely on the basis of your consent (Article 6(1)(a) GDPR). You can withdraw this consent at any time. An informal email to us is sufficient. Withdrawal does not affect the lawfulness of processing carried out before the withdrawal.

The data you enter in the contact form remains with us until you ask us to delete it, withdraw your consent to its storage or the purpose for storing it no longer applies, for example once your enquiry has been dealt with. Mandatory statutory requirements, particularly retention periods, remain unaffected.

Processing data (customer and contract data)

We collect, process and use personal data only to the extent necessary to establish, define the content of or change the legal relationship (contractual data). This takes place on the basis of Article 6(1)(b) GDPR, which permits data processing for the performance of a contract or pre-contractual measures. We collect, process and use personal data relating to the use of our web pages (usage data) only to the extent necessary to enable use of the service or to charge for it.

Customer data collected is deleted once the order is complete or the business relationship has ended. Statutory retention periods remain unaffected.

Transfer of data when entering into contracts for services and digital content

We transfer personal data to third parties only where this is necessary to perform the contract, for example to the financial institution responsible for processing payment.

No further transfer of data takes place, or it takes place only if you have expressly agreed to it. Your data is not passed to third parties without your express consent, for example for advertising purposes.

The legal basis for this processing is Article 6(1)(b) GDPR, which permits data processing for the performance of a contract or pre-contractual measures.

4. Newsletter

Newsletter data

If you would like to receive the newsletter offered on the website, we require an email address and information allowing us to verify that you are the owner of that email address and agree to receive the newsletter. No further data is collected, except on a voluntary basis. We use this data solely to send the information requested and do not pass it to third parties.

The data entered in the newsletter registration form is processed solely on the basis of your consent (Article 6(1)(a) GDPR). You can withdraw your consent to the storage of your data and email address and their use for sending the newsletter at any time, for example through the ‘Unsubscribe’ link in the newsletter. Withdrawal does not affect the lawfulness of processing that has already taken place.

We store the data you provide for receiving the newsletter until you unsubscribe and delete it after you have cancelled your subscription. Data stored by us for other purposes, such as email addresses for the members' area, is unaffected.

5. Plugins and tools · Google Web Fonts

This site uses web fonts provided by Google to display typefaces consistently. When you open a page, your browser loads the required web fonts into its cache to display text and fonts correctly.

For this purpose, your browser must connect to Google's servers. This informs Google that our website has been accessed through your IP address. Google Web Fonts are used in the interest of a consistent and attractive presentation of our online services. This constitutes a legitimate interest within the meaning of Article 6(1)(f) GDPR.

If your browser does not support web fonts, a standard font from your computer is used.

Further information about Google Web Fonts is available at https://developers.google.com/fonts/faq and in Google's privacy policy: https://www.google.com/policies/privacy/.

Use of OpenStreetMap

We use a map extract from OpenStreetMap (https://www.openstreetmap.de/) on our website to show you the route to our business and make it easier to plan your journey.
