General information on data processing

Scope of the processing of personal data
As a matter of principle, we collect and use personal data of our users only insofar as this is necessary for the provision of a functional website as well as our contents and services. The collection and use of our users’ personal data regularly only takes place with the user’s consent. An exception applies in cases where it is not possible to obtain prior consent for actual reasons and the processing of the data is permitted by legal regulations.

Legal basis for the processing of personal data
Insofar as we obtain the consent of the data subject for processing operations of personal data, Art. 6 (1) lit. a GDPR serves as the legal basis. When processing personal data that is necessary for the performance of a contract to which the data subject is a party, Art. 6 (1) (b) GDPR serves as the legal basis. This also applies to processing operations that are necessary for the performance of pre-contractual measures. If processing of personal data is necessary to comply with a legal obligation (statutory provisions) to which our company is subject (e.g. federal registration laws), Art. 6 (1) c GDPR serves as the legal basis. If the processing is necessary to protect a legitimate interest of our company or a third party and the interests, fundamental rights and freedoms of the data subject do not outweigh the first-mentioned interest, Art. 6 (1) f GDPR serves as the legal basis for the processing.

Data deletion and storage period
The personal data of the data subject shall be deleted or blocked as soon as the purpose of the storage ceases to apply. Storage may also take place if this has been provided for by the European or national legislator in Union regulations, laws or other provisions to which the controller is subject. The data will also be blocked or deleted if a storage period prescribed by the aforementioned standards expires, unless there is a necessity for the continued storage of the data for the conclusion or fulfilment of a contract.

Contact form/e-mail contact

Description and scope of data processing
If there is a contact form on our website, it can be used for electronic contact. If you make use of this option, the data entered in the input mask will be transmitted to us and stored. These data are: Salutation, first name and surname, address, e-mail address, telephone number and the request.

Alternatively, it is possible to contact us via the e-mail address provided. In this case, your personal data transmitted with the e-mail will be stored.

Legal basis for data processing
The legal basis for the processing of the data is firstly our legitimate interest in the processing of data in the context of contacting the enquirer. If the contact is aimed at the conclusion of a contract, the additional legal basis for processing is in the context of a business initiation relationship or contractual relationship.

Purpose of the data processing
The data is used exclusively for processing the conversation. The processing of the personal data from the input mask serves us solely to process the contact. In the case of contact by e-mail, this also constitutes the necessary legitimate interest in processing the data.

The other personal data processed during the submission process serve to prevent misuse of the contact form and to ensure the security of our information technology systems.

Duration of storage
The data is deleted as soon as it is no longer required to achieve the purpose for which it was collected. For personal data sent by e-mail, this is the case when the respective conversation with the user has ended. The conversation is ended when the circumstances indicate that the matter in question has been conclusively clarified.

Possibility of objection
You have the option to object to the processing of your data at any time. We have set up the e-mail address sales@estrel.com for this purpose.

We would like to point out that in the event of an objection, the conversation cannot be continued or we cannot make any offers etc.

All personal data stored in the course of contacting us will be deleted in this case.

Support, advice and advertising for corporate clients

Description and scope of data processing
For the support, advice and advertising of corporate customers, we collect and use the contact person, telephone number and postal address in addition to the business partner or also potential business partner. We obtain the information from various sources, either through an enquiry (e-mail or telephone), but also via events, trade fairs, business cards that our sales staff receive, etc.

In this context, the data will not be passed on to third parties.

Legal basis for data processing
The legal basis for processing the data is our legitimate interest in data processing. If the contact is aimed at concluding a contract, the additional legal basis for processing is the business initiation relationship or contractual relationship. To increase our services, we manage all data received in the CRM module of our central hotel software within the Estrel Hotel.

Purpose of the data processing
We use this contact data exclusively for our own purposes and for the needs-based design of our own sales activities.

Duration of storage
In principle, no deletion period is foreseen. However, if our sales department has not had any contact with the company contact within 3 years, the sales department will decide whether the contact person of the company contact will be deleted.

If the contact is a pre-contractual relationship (offer, booking or reservation request), the transmitted data will also be stored in our hotel software and used to execute the contract. If there is no contractual relationship, we delete the data after one year at the end of the year.

Possibility of objection
As a company contact, you have the option to object to the processing of your data at any time. We have set up the e-mail address sales@estrel.com for this purpose.

All personal data of the contact person that has been stored for the business partner will be deleted in this case.

Newsletter service

Description and scope of data processing
On our website, you have the option of registering for our newsletter service in various ways. If you take advantage of this option, the data entered in the input mask will be transmitted to us and stored. These data are: E-mail address, title, first name, last name, company, address and the type of newsletter.

If you register for a newsletter from our websites, the data will be stored in our newsletter tool: dailypoint der Toedt, Dr. Selk & Coll. GmbH, Augustenstr. 79, D-80333 Munich, Germany. The provider has undertaken to handle your transmitted data in accordance with data protection regulations. It takes all organisational and technical measures to protect your data.

If we otherwise receive an email address where the recipient clearly tells us that they would like to receive our newsletter, we will collect their details via the input mask on our website.

In this context, the data will not be passed on to third parties.

Legal basis for data processing
The legal basis for the processing of the data is the existence of the recipient’s consent. This is ensured by a double-opt-in procedure.

Purpose of the data processing
The processing of personal data is solely for the purpose of sending individual newsletters.

Duration of storage
The data will be deleted as soon as the newsletter service is cancelled.

Possibility of objection
As a recipient, you have the option to object to the processing of your data at any time. You can unsubscribe from the newsletter service with each newsletter. In addition, we have set up the e-mail address sales@estrel.com. Please let us know the e-mail address here.

Provision of the website and creation of log files

Description and scope of data processing
Each time our website is accessed, our system automatically collects data and information from the computer system of the accessing computer. The following data is collected:

The data is also stored in the log files of our system. This data is not stored together with other personal data of the user. Personal user profiles cannot be formed. The stored data is only evaluated for statistical purposes.

Legal basis for data processing
The legal basis for the temporary storage of the data and the log files is the processing for the protection of our legitimate interest, i.e. by Estrel Berlin.

Purpose of the data processing
The temporary storage of the IP address by the system is necessary to enable delivery of the website to the user’s computer. For this purpose, the user’s IP address must remain stored for the duration of the session.

The storage in log files is done to ensure the functionality of the website. In addition, we use the data to optimise the website and to ensure the security of our information technology systems. An evaluation of the data for marketing purposes does not take place in this context.

Our legitimate interest in data processing also lies in these purposes.

Duration of storage
The data is deleted as soon as it is no longer required to achieve the purpose for which it was collected. In the case of the collection of data for the provision of the website, this is the case when the respective session has ended.

In the case of storage of data in log files, this is the case after seven days at the latest. Storage beyond this period is possible. In this case, the IP addresses of the users are deleted or alienated so that an assignment of the calling client is no longer possible.

Possibility of objection and removal
The collection of data for the provision of the website and the storage of the data in log files is absolutely necessary for the operation of the website. Consequently, there is no possibility for the user to object.

By using the fan page, data is forwarded to the Facebook servers, which contain information about your visits to our fan page. For logged-in users, this results in the usage data being assigned to their personal Facebook account.
