Privacy Policy of RIMC Berlin Hotelbetriebsgesellschaft mbH & Co. KG

We are pleased that you visit our website and thank you for your interest in our hotel. The protection of personal data is very 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 the applicable European and national legislation.

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. Please contact the responsible person for this purpose. You can find the contact details at the bottom of this privacy policy.

In the following, the RIMC Berlin Hotelbetriebsgesellschaft mbH & Co. KG would like to inform the public about the nature, scope and purpose of the personal data it processes. Furthermore, data subjects are informed of their rights by means of this data protection declaration.

Definitions

The data protection declaration of RIMC Berlin Hotelbetriebsgesellschaft mbH & Co. KG is based on the terms used by the European Directive and Ordinance Maker in the adoption of the EU General Data Protection Regulation (hereinafter: "EU GDPR"). Our privacy policy should be easy to read and understand for the public as well as for our guests and business partners. To ensure this, we would like to explain in advance the terminology used.

We use the following terms, among others, in this Privacy Policy and on our website:

Personal data is any information relating to an identified or identifiable natural person (hereinafter referred to as "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 is any identified or identifiable natural person whose personal data are processed by the controller.

Processing means any operation or set of operations which is performed upon personal data, whether or not by automatic means, such as collection, recording, organization, 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 type of automated processing of personal data that consists of using such personal data to evaluate certain personal aspects relating to a natural person, in particular to analyze or predict aspects relating to that natural person's job performance, economic situation, health, personal preferences, interests, reliability, behavior, location or change of location.

Pseudonymization is the processing of personal data in such a way that the personal data can no longer be attributed to a specific data subject without the use of additional information, provided that such additional information is kept separate and is subject to technical and organizational measures to ensure that the personal data is not attributed to an identified or identifiable natural person.

The controller or controller 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 that processes personal data on behalf of the Controller.

A recipient is 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 investigation mandate under Union or Member State law shall not be considered as recipients.

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

Consent shall mean any freely given indication of the data subject's wishes for the specific case in an informed and unambiguous manner in the form of a statement or any other unambiguous affirmative act by which the data subject indicates that he or she consents to the processing of personal data relating to him or her.

Registration

The data subject has the opportunity to register on the website of the controller by providing personal data. Which personal data is transmitted to the controller in the process is determined by the respective input mask used for the registration. The personal data entered by the data subject are collected and stored exclusively for internal use by the controller and for its own purposes. 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.

By registering on the website of the controller, the IP address assigned by the Internet service provider (ISP) of the data subject, the date and the time of registration are also stored. The storage of this data takes place against the background that only in this way can the misuse of our services be prevented and, if necessary, this data makes it possible to clarify committed crimes and copyright infringements. In this respect, the storage of this data is necessary for the protection of the data controller. In principle, this data is not passed on to third parties, unless there is a legal obligation to pass it on or the passing on serves criminal or legal prosecution.

The registration of the data subject by voluntarily providing personal data serves 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 registered users. Registered persons are free to have the personal data provided during registration completely deleted from the controller's database.

The controller shall provide any data subject at any time, upon request, with information about what personal data is stored about the data subject. Furthermore, the controller shall correct or delete personal data at the request or indication of the data subject, provided that this does not conflict with any statutory retention obligations.

Contact

Personal data will also be processed by RIMC Berlin Hotelbetriebsgesellschaft mbH & Co. KG if you provide them of your own accord. This happens, for example, every time you contact us. We will, of course, use the personal data transmitted in this way exclusively for the purpose for which you provide it when contacting us. Any communication of this information is expressly on a voluntary basis and with your consent. Insofar as this involves information on communication channels (for example, e-mail address, telephone number), you also consent to our contacting you via this communication channel, if necessary, in order to respond to your request.

Security

The RIMC Berlin Hotelbetriebsgesellschaft mbH & Co. KG takes numerous technical and organizational measures to protect your personal data against accidental or unlawful destruction, loss or alteration and against unauthorized disclosure or access.

Nevertheless, Internet-based data transmissions, for example, can generally have security gaps, 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.

Links to other websites

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

The RIMC Berlin Hotelbetriebsgesellschaft mbH & Co. KG is responsible as a provider for its 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.

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 visited websites and servers to distinguish the individual browser of the data subject from other web browsers that contain other cookies. A specific web browser can be recognized and identified via the unique cookie ID. This information is used to automatically recognize you when you visit the website again with the same terminal device and to facilitate navigation.

You can consent to or refuse cookies - also for web tracking - via the settings of your web browser. You can configure your browser so 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 about this in the operating instructions or also in the settings of your browser.

The website of the RIMC Berlin Hotelbetriebsgesellschaft mbH & Co. KG collects a series of general data and information with each call-up of the website by a data subject or automated system. This general data and information is stored in the log files of the server. Collected can be:

  • 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, the RIMC Berlin Hotelbetriebsgesellschaft mbH & Co. KG does not draw any conclusions about the data subject. Rather, this information is needed in order to:

  • to deliver the contents of our website correctly
  • to optimize the content of our website and the advertising for it
  • to ensure the permanent functionality of our information technology systems and the technology of our website
  • Provide law enforcement authorities with the information necessary to prosecute in the event of a cyberattack

The anonymous data of the server log files are stored separately from any personal data provided by a data subject.

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 necessary to achieve the purpose of storage or insofar as provided for by the European Directive and Regulation or other legislator in laws or regulations to which the controller is subject.

If the purpose of storage no longer applies or if a storage period prescribed by the European Directive and Regulation or another competent legislator expires, the personal data will be routinely blocked or deleted in accordance with the statutory provisions.

Rights of the data subject

Right to confirmation: Every data subject has the right to obtain confirmation from the controller as to whether personal data concerning him or her are being processed. If a data subject wishes to exercise this right, 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 stored about him or her, as well as a copy of that information. Furthermore, the European Directive and Regulation has granted the data subject access to the following information:

  • the categories of personal data that are 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 organizations

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 organization. If this is the case, the data subject also has the right to obtain information about the appropriate safeguards in connection with the transfer.

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

Right to rectification: Every person affected by the processing of personal data has the right to demand that inaccurate personal data concerning him or her be corrected without delay. Furthermore, the data subject has the right to request the completion of incomplete personal data, also 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 concerning 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) EU GDPR or Article 9(2)(a) EU GDPR and there is no other legal basis for the processing.
  • The data subject objects to the processing pursuant to Article 21(1) EU GDPR and there are no overriding legitimate grounds for the processing, or the data subject objects to the processing pursuant to Article 21(2) EU GDPR.
  • The personal data have been processed unlawfully.
  • The deletion of the personal data is necessary for compliance with a legal obligation under Union or Member State law to which the controller is subject.

KG, 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 has been made public by the RIMC Berlin Hotelbetriebsgesellschaft mbH & Co. KG has been made public and our company as the responsible party is obliged to delete the personal data pursuant to Art. 17 Para. 1 EU-DSGVO, RIMC Berlin Hotelbetriebsgesellschaft mbH & Co. KG shall implement reasonable measures, including technical measures, taking into account the available technology and the costs 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 processing, but the data subject needs it for the assertion, exercise or defense of legal claims.
  • The data subject has objected to the processing pursuant to Article 21(1) EU 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 the RIMC Berlin Hotelbetriebsgesellschaft mbH & Co. KG, he or she may, at any time, contact the controller. The restriction of the 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, commonly used and machine-readable format. He or she also has the right to transmit this data to another controller without hindrance from the controller to whom the personal data were provided, provided that the processing is based on consent pursuant to Article 6(1)(a) EU GDPR or Article 9(2)(a) EU GDPR or on a contract pursuant to Article 6(1)(b) EU 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 his or her right to data portability pursuant to Article 20(1) EU GDPR, the data subject has the right to obtain that the personal data be transferred directly from one controller to another controller, to the extent that this is 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 concerned 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 carried out on the basis of Article 6(1)(e) or (f) EU GDPR. This also applies to profiling based on these provisions.

The RIMC Berlin Hotelbetriebsgesellschaft mbH & Co. KG 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 the RIMC Berlin Hotelbetriebsgesellschaft mbH & Co. KG processes personal data for direct marketing purposes, 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 the profiling, insofar as it is related to such direct marketing. If the data subject objects to RIMC Berlin Hotelbetriebsgesellschaft mbH & Co. KG to the processing for direct marketing purposes, the RIMC Berlin Hotelbetriebsgesellschaft mbH & Co. KG 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 the RIMC Berlin Hotelbetriebsgesellschaft mbH & Co. KG for scientific or historical research purposes, or for statistical purposes pursuant to Article 89 (1) of the EU 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: Any person concerned by the processing of personal data has 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
  • is 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
  • takes place 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 data controller, or if it is made with the explicit consent of the data subject, the RIMC Berlin Hotelbetriebsgesellschaft mbH & Co. KG will take reasonable steps to safeguard the data subject's rights and freedoms and legitimate interests, which include at least the right to obtain the intervention of a data subject on the part of the responsible person, to express his or her point of view and to 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 revoke consent under data protection law: Any person affected 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 the right to withdraw the consent, he or she may, at any time, contact the controller.

Data protection during applications and the application process

The controller collects and processes the personal data of applicants for the purpose of handling the application procedure. The processing may also take place electronically. This is the case, in particular, when an applicant sends 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 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).
