Privacy Police
As a matter of course we protect the data entrusted to us. It also goes without saying that all data collection on our part complies with the German and European data protection guidelines. In the following paragraphs, you will learn how we use and process your personal data. We have made every effort to make the information as legible and transparent as possible. Should you have any questions, please do not hesitate to contact us.
Who is responsible for data processing?
Globus Living GmbH & Co. KG, Prenzlauer Allee 15, 10405 Berlin is responsible for the processing of personal data as described in this privacy policy. If you have any questions about this privacy policy or the processing of personal data, please contact the company's management. The contact details can be found in the legal notice. Alternatively, you can use the contact form on this website.
Important note on the use of our contact data: The use of our contact data for sending unsolicited advertising and information material is hereby prohibited! We expressly reserve the right to take legal action in the event of unsolicited sending of advertising or information, such as spam e-mails
What personal data is collected?
When you visit our website, various personal data is collected. For example, certain data is automatically collected by IT systems. This is mainly technical data (Internet browser used, operating system, IP address or time of visit). This data is collected automatically as soon as you access our website and is used to ensure that the website is error-free and to optimise it.
If you do not only surf our website but also wish to contact us via our website, we must collect further data from you. This is information that is strictly necessary for contacting. When you contact us, this includes your name, e-mail address, and your personal message. All data is collected exclusively for the purpose of processing your enquiry. The collection of this data is of a purely practical nature and only takes place within the framework of the requirements customary in the industry. Without this data collection, it is not possible to contact us.
Will your data be passed on to third parties?
We never pass on personal data from you to third parties, except to the extent necessary for the technical operation of this website or for answering your enquiry or confirming your booking. You, therefore, do not need to be concerned that we will pass on your data to third parties for marketing reasons. Any data transfer will only take place with the intention of fulfilling your request.
Who has access to your data with us? Who is the data protection officer?
We attach great importance to the protection of your data. In accordance with German and European data protection laws, we take appropriate measures to ensure the protection of your personal data against misuse and unauthorised access. This means that only partners who need personal data to perform their duties will have access to it.
Legislation sets out strict requirements as to when a data protection officer must be appointed. Accordingly, the appointment of an explicit data protection officer is not necessary for our company. However, the management is personally responsible for ensuring that all necessary measures are taken to protect your data. This shows how important the security of your data is to us.
We would like to point out that in certain cases, e.g. when communicating by e-mail, data transmission on the Internet can have general security gaps for which we are not responsible. However, for security reasons and to protect the transmission of confidential content, such as your enquiries, we generally use SSL encryption. You can recognise an encrypted connection by the fact that the address line of the browser changes from "http://" to "https://" and by the lock symbol in your browser line. If SSL encryption is activated, the data you transmit to us cannot be read by third parties.
How long is data stored?
We will retain your personal information for only as long as we deem necessary to ensure that you are able to use our services and we can provide our services to you, to comply with applicable law, to resolve disputes, or for other purposes deemed necessary to conduct our business, including the detection and prevention of fraud or other illegal activity. All personal information that we hold is covered by this Privacy Policy. If you have a question about a specific retention period for certain types of personal information that we process on you, please contact us.
How can you control what information we have on you?
So that you can check what personal data we have stored on you, you can ask us, at any time, to provide you with a free copy of this information. For security reasons, we prefer that you send your request in writing. You can also choose another communication channel. However, data protection also means that we must be sure that your enquiry really comes from you.
You may also notify us of any changes to your personal information or ask us to correct any personal information that we hold on you. We trust that you will ensure that your personal information is complete, accurate and current.
Your right to deletion of data!
If we use your personal data on the basis of your consent, you are entitled to revoke this consent at any time in accordance with applicable law. Furthermore, if we process your personal data on the basis of a legitimate interest or in the public interest, you have the right to object to this use of your personal data at any time in accordance with applicable law. However, we would like to point out that you have the right to correct incorrect data or delete personal data where there is no statutory obligation to retain such data.
In the event of violations of data protection laws, you have the right to lodge a complaint with the responsible supervisory authority (whereby we recommend that you contact us first). The responsible supervisory authority for data protection issues is the state data protection officer of the federal state. In this case, the state data protection officer of the state of Berlin.
