Web analysis
Our website uses functions of the web analysis service Google Analytics. The provider is Google Inc. based at 1600 Amphitheatre Parkway Mountain View, CA 94043, USA. Cookies are used for this purpose, which enable an analysis of the use of the website by its users. The information generated in this way is transferred to the Google server in the USA and stored there. You can prevent this by setting up your browser so that no cookies are stored.
We have concluded a corresponding contract with the provider for commissioned data processing.
Our concern within the meaning of the GDPR (legitimate interest) is the improvement of our offer and our website. As the privacy of our users is important to us, the user data is pseudonymized.
Your IP address is recorded but immediately pseudonymized (e.g. by deleting the last 8 bits). This means that only a rough localization is possible.
Data processing is carried out on the basis of the legal provisions of § 96 para. 3 TKG and Art. 6 para. 1 lit a (consent) and/or f (legitimate interest) of the GDPR.
Google has been subject to an adequacy decision (implementing acts) by the EU Commission since July 10, 2023. The EU Commission continuously monitors developments in the relevant third countries and revokes, amends or suspends the decisions by means of implementing acts if there is information that the third country does not guarantee an adequate level of protection. Below you will find the link to the adequacy decision for the USA (EU-US Data Privacy Framework – https://commission.europa.eu/document/fa09cbad-dd7d-4684-ae60-be03fcb0fddf_en)
User data is stored for a period of 14 months.
You can find detailed information on the use of data by Google, your options for settings and objections on the following Google websites: https://www.google.com/intl/de/policies/privacy/partners (“Data use by Google when you use our partners’ websites or apps”), http://www.google.com/policies/technologies/ads (“Data use for advertising purposes”), http://www.google.de/settings/ads “Manage information that Google uses to show you advertising”).

Mouse tracking
Our concern within the meaning of the GDPR (legitimate interest) is the improvement of our offer and our website. Therefore, we use Hotjar to better understand the needs of our users and to optimize the offer on this website. With the help of Hotjar technology, we gain a better understanding of our users’ experiences (e.g. how much time users spend on which pages, which links they click on, what they like and dislike, etc.) and this helps us to tailor our offering to our users’ feedback. Hotjar works with cookies (see above) and other technologies to collect information about the behavior of our users and their end devices (in particular IP address of the device (is only recorded and stored in anonymized form), screen size, device type (Unique Device Identifiers), information about the browser used, location (country only), preferred language for displaying our website). Hotjar stores this information in a pseudonymized user profile. The information is not used by Hotjar or by us to identify individual users or merged with other data about individual users. Further information can be found in Hotjar’s privacy policy: https://www.hotjar.com/legal/policies/privacy.
You can object to the storage of a user profile and information about your visit to our website by Hotjar and the setting of Hotjar tracking cookies on other websites by clicking on this opt-out link.

Data storage via our webshop
We store the following data for the purpose of processing the contract: Title, first and last name, address, e-mail address and optionally entered user data (company name, address details, telephone number). The data provided by you is required to fulfill the contract or to carry out pre-contractual measures. We cannot conclude the contract with you without this data. Data will not be transferred to third parties, with the exception of the transfer of credit card data to the processing bank/payment service provider for the purpose of debiting the purchase price, to the transport company/shipping company commissioned by us to deliver the goods and to our tax advisor to fulfill our tax obligations.
After the purchase process has been canceled, the data stored by us will be deleted. If a contract is concluded, all data from the contractual relationship will be stored until the expiry of the retention period under tax law (7 years).
The data name, address, purchased goods and date of purchase are also stored until the expiry of product liability (10 years). Data processing is carried out on the basis of the legal provisions of § 96 para. 3 TKG and Art. 6 para. 1 lit a (consent) and/or lit b (necessary for contract fulfillment) of the GDPR.

Registration and user account
Users of our webshop can optionally create a user account. As part of the registration process, we provide users with the required information (mandatory fields and optional information). We use the data entered during registration for the purpose of using our offer. Users may be informed by e-mail about information relevant to the offer or registration, such as changes to the scope of the offer or technical updates.
In the event that users terminate their user account, their data will be deleted from this account; an exception is data whose retention is necessary for commercial or tax law reasons in accordance with Art. 6 para. 1 lit. c GDPR. Users are responsible for backing up any data in the event of termination before the end of the contract. We are entitled to irretrievably delete all user data stored during the term of the contract.
Both on the basis of our legitimate interests and on the basis of user interests in protection against misuse and other unauthorized use, we store the IP address and the time of the respective action by the user if a user uses our registration and login function in connection with their user account. The IP addresses are anonymized or deleted after 7 days at the latest.
We do not pass on the data to third parties as a matter of principle; exceptions are situations in which we have to pursue our claims or in which we have to comply with a legal obligation pursuant to Art. 6 para. 1 lit. c GDPR.

Our newsletter
You have the option of subscribing to our newsletter via our website. In order to provide you with targeted information, we may also collect and process additional information that users provide voluntarily.
To send you our newsletter, we need your e-mail address and your declaration that you agree to receive the newsletter. As soon as you have registered for the newsletter, we will send you a confirmation e-mail with a link to confirm your registration.
You can cancel your subscription to the newsletter at any time. Please send your cancellation to the following e-mail address: reservierung@royer.at.
We will then immediately delete your data in connection with the newsletter mailing.

Google re/marketing services
Our concern within the meaning of the GDPR (legitimate interest) is the improvement of our offer and our website. We therefore use the marketing and remarketing services (“Google Marketing Services” for short) of Google LLC, 1600 Amphitheatre Parkway, Mountain View, CA 94043, USA, (“Google”).
Google is certified under the Privacy Shield Agreement and thus offers a guarantee of compliance with European data protection law (https://www.privacyshield.gov/participant?id=a2zt000000001L5AAI&status=Active).
With the help of Google marketing services, we can display advertisements for and on our website in a targeted manner in order to present users only with advertisements that potentially reflect their interests. To do this, Google executes a code and uses so-called (re-)marketing tags, with the help of which an individual cookie is stored in the user’s browser. For the use of cookies, see above.
The information collected can also be combined by Google with such information from other sources. If the user subsequently visits other websites, they can be shown ads tailored to their interests.
In addition, the IP address of the user is recorded via Google Analytics, but immediately pseudonymized (e.g. by deleting the last 8 bits). As a result, only a rough localization is possible, the ads are not managed and displayed for a specific person, but for the cookie owner, regardless of who this cookie owner is. Of course, this does not apply if a user has expressly allowed Google to process the data without this pseudonymization. The information collected by Google marketing services about users is transmitted to Google and stored on Google’s servers in the USA. The user’s IP address is not merged with the user’s data within other Google offers.
Among other things, we use cookies from the Google marketing service “Google AdWords”; we may display third-party advertisements on the basis of the Google marketing service “AdSense” and its cookies. Further information on the use of data for marketing purposes by Google can be found at https://policies.google.com/technologies/ads, Google’s privacy policy is available at https://www.google.com/policies/privacy.
We also use the “Google Tag Manager” to integrate the analysis and marketing services offered by Google into our website and to manage them centrally.

Online presence in social media
We operate online presences within social networks and platforms in order to be able to communicate with users, interested parties and customers who are active there. When accessing these networks and platforms, the terms and conditions and data processing guidelines of the respective operators apply.

Use of Facebook social plugins
Our concern within the meaning of the GDPR (legitimate interest) is the improvement of our offer as well as the analysis, optimization and economic operation of our website. We therefore use social plugins (“plugins”) from the social network facebook.com, which is operated by Facebook Ireland Ltd, 4 Grand Canal Square, Grand Canal Harbour, Dublin 2, Ireland (“Facebook”). The plugins can display content such as graphics, text contributions or videos or elements for interaction on the website. You can recognize them by one of the Facebook logos (“f” on a corresponding background, the “thumbs up” sign or the terms “Like” or “Gefällt mir”) or the label with the addition “Facebook Social Plugin”. You can view the list and appearance of Facebook social plugins here: https://developers.facebook.com/docs/plugins/.
Facebook is certified under the Privacy Shield Agreement and thus offers a guarantee of compliance with European data protection law(https://www.privacyshield.gov/participant?id=a2zt0000000GnywAAC&status=Active).

Collecting general data and information
The website of the Sporthotel Royer KG collects a range of general data and information each time a person concerned or automated system accesses the website. This general data and information is stored in the server’s log files. The following may be recorded: (1) the browser type and version used; (2) the operating system used by the accessing system; (3) the website from which an accessing system reaches our website (so-called “referrer”); (4) the sub-websites visited via an accessing system on our website; (5) the date and time of accessing the website; (6) an Internet protocol address (IP address); (7) the Internet service provider of the accessing system; (8) other similar data and information that is used to prevent threats in the event of attacks on our information technology systems.

When using this general data and information, the Sporthotel Royer KG does not draw any conclusions about the person concerned. This information is in fact required in order to (1) deliver the content of our website correctly, (2) to optimise the content of our website and advertising, (3) to ensure the long-term functionality of our information technology systems and the technology of our website, and (4) to provide law enforcement authorities with the information necessary for prosecution in the event of a cyber attack.

The anonymous data of the server log files is stored separately from all personal data provided by a person concerned.

Contact options on the website

Right to deletion (right to be forgotten)
Any person concerned with the processing of personal data has the right granted by the European body issuing directives and regulations to ask the responsible party to immediately delete any personal data concerning him or her, provided that one of the following reasons applies and insofar as the processing is not necessary:

• personal data has been collected or otherwise processed for purposes for which it is no longer necessary.
• the person concerned withdraws his or her consent on which the processing was based according to Article 6 Para. 1 Letter a DS-GMO or Article 9 Para. 2 Letter A DS-GMO and there is no other legal basis for the processing.
• the person concerned enters an objection against processing according to Article 21 Para. 1 DS-GMO and there are no overriding legitimate grounds for processing or the person concerned enters and objection against processing according to Article 21 Para. 2 DS-GMO.
• the personal data has been processed unlawfully.
• the deletion of personal data is necessary is required to fulfil a legal obligation under EU law or the law of the member states to which the responsible party is subject.

If one of the aforementioned reasons applies and a person concerned wishes to have personal data stored by the Sporthotel Royer KG deleted, he or she can contact our data protection officer at any time. The Sporthotel Royer KG’s data protection officer or another employee will arrange for the request for deletion to be complied with immediately.

The Sporthotel Royer KG’s data protection officer or another employee will take the necessary steps in individual cases.

• the person concerned has entered an objection against the processing according to Article. 21 Para. 1 DS-GMO and it has not yet been determined whether the legitimate reasons of the responsible party outweigh those of the person concerned.

If one of the aforementioned conditions exists and a person concerned wishes to have personal data stored by the company* restricted, he or she can contact our data protection officer at any time. The Sporthotel Royer KG’s data protection officer or another employee will arrange for the restriction of processing.

 Right to data transferability

They also have the right to transmit this data to another responsible party without any obstruction by the responsible party, to whom the personal data has been provided, provided that the processing is based on the consent according to Article 6 Para. 1 Letter a DS-GMO or Article 9 Para. 2 Letter a DS-GMO or on a contract according to Article 6 Para. 1 Letter b DS-GMO and processing is carried out by means of automated procedures, except where processing is necessary for the performance of a task in the public interest or in the exercise of official authority assigned to the responsible party.
Furthermore, in exercising his or her right to data transferability according to Article 20 Para. 1 DS-GMO, the person concerned has the right to effect that the personal data be transferred directly by a responsible party to another responsible party, provided this is technically feasible and provided that the rights and freedoms of other persons are not affected.

Right to objection
Any person concerned with the processing of personal data shall has right granted by the European body issuing directives and regulations to enter an objection at any time to the processing of personal data concerning them according to Article 6 Para 1 Letters e or f DS-GMO for reasons arising from their particular situation. This also applies to profiling based on these provisions.
In the event of revocation, the Sporthotel Royer KG will no longer process the personal data unless we can prove compelling legitimate reasons for processing, which outweigh the interests, rights and freedoms of the person concerned, or the processing serves to assert, exercise or defend legal claims.
If the Sporthotel Royer KG processes personal data for direct advertising purposes, the person concerned has the right to object at any time to the processing of personal data for the purpose of this kind of advertising. This also applies to profiling if it is in connection with this kind of direct advertising. If the person concerned objects to the Sporthotel Royer KG processing for direct advertising purposes, the Sporthotel Royer KG will no longer process the personal data for these purposes.
In addition, the person concerned has the right to enter an objection against the processing of personal data concerning him or her carried out by the Sporthotel Royer KG, which is done for academic or historical research purposes or for statistical purposes according to Article 89 Para. 1 DS-GMO for reasons arising from their particular situation, unless this processing is necessary to fulfil a task in the public interest.
To exercise the right to objection, the person concerned may contact the Sporthotel Royer KG’s data protection officer or another employee directly. The person concerned shall also be free to exercise his or her right of objection in relation to the use of information society services by means of automated procedures for which technical specifications are used, regardless of Directive 2002/58/EC.

Automated decisions in individual cases, including profiling
Every person concerned with the processing of personal data has the right granted by the European body issuing directives and regulations not to be subject to a decision based exclusively on automated processing, including profiling, which has legal effect against him or her or significantly affects him or her in a similar manner, provided that the decision (1) is not necessary for the conclusion or performance of a contract between the person concerned and the responsible party, or (2) is admissible under the provisions of EU law or those of the member states to which the responsible party is subject and these provisions contain appropriate measures to safeguard the rights, freedoms and legitimate interests of the person concerned or (3) is made with the express consent of the person concerned.
If the decision (1) is required for the conclusion or performance of a contract between the person concerned and the responsible party or (2) is made with the express consent of the person concerned, the Sporthotel Royer KG shall take appropriate measures to safeguard the rights, freedoms and legitimate interests of the person concerned, including at least the right to obtain the intervention of a person by the person responsible, to state his or her own position and to challenge the decision.
If the person concerned wishes to assert his or her right relating to automated decisions, he or she may contact our data protection officer at any time.

Right to withdraw consent relating to data privacy
Every person concerned with the processing of personal data has the right granted by the European body issuing directives and regulations to withdraw consent given to process personal data at any time.
If the person concerned wishes to assert his or her right to revoke his or her consent, he or she may contact our data protection officer at any time.

Data privacy for applications & in the application process
The party responsible for processing collects and processes the personal data of applicants for the purpose of processing the application procedure. Processing may also be carried out electronically. This applies, in particular, if an applicant sends corresponding application documents to the party responsible for processing electronically, for example, by email or via an online form on the website. If the party responsible for processing enters into an employment contract with an applicant, the data transmitted will be stored for the purpose of processing the employment contract in compliance with the statutory provisions. If the party responsible for processing does not enter into an employment contract with the applicant, the application documents shall be automatically deleted two months after notification of the refusal decision, provided that deletion does not obstruct other legitimate interests of the party responsible for processing. Other legitimate interest in this sense is, for example, a burden of proof in proceedings under the German General Act on Equal Treatment (AGG).

Legal basis for processing
Article 6 I lit. a DS-GVO serves our company as a legal basis for processing operations for which we obtain consent for a specific processing purpose. If processing personal data is necessary for the performance of a contract to which the person concerned is a party, as is the case, for example, with processing operations necessary for the delivery of goods or the provision of other services or consideration, processing is based on Article 6 I lit. b DS-GMO. The same applies to processing operations that are necessary to carry out precontractual measures, for example, in cases of enquiries about our products or services. If our company is subject to a legal obligation that requires the processing of personal data, for example, to fulfil tax obligations, processing is based on Article. 6 I lit. c DS-GMO. In rare cases, processing personal data may become necessary to protect the vital interests of the person concerned or another natural person. This would be the case, for example, if a visitor was injured at our company and his name, age, health insurance data or other vital information had to be passed on to a doctor, a hospital or other third parties. Processing would then be based on Article 6 I lit. d DS-GVO. Ultimately, processing operations could be based on Article 6 I lit. d DS-GVO. Processing operations that are not covered by any of the aforementioned legal bases are based on this legal basis if processing is necessary to safeguard a legitimate interest of our company or a third party, provided that the interests, fundamental rights and freedoms of the person concerned do not prevail. We are entitled to these kind of processing procedures in particular because they have been specifically mentioned by the European legislator. It advocates the view that a legitimate interest could be assumed if the person concerned is a customer of the responsible party (Recital 47, Sentence 2 DS-GMO).

Legitimate interests to processing pursued by the responsible party or a third party
If processing personal data is based on Article 6 I lit. f DS-GMO, it is in our legitimate interest to conduct our business activity for the good of all our employees and our shareholders.

Duration for which personal data is stored
The criterion for the duration of personal data storage is the respective legal retention period. After the expiry of this period, the corresponding data will be routinely deleted, provided that it is no longer necessary for the fulfilment or initiation of the contract.

Legal or contractual provisions for the provision of personal data; necessity for the conclusion of the contract; obligation of the person concerned to provide the personal data; possible consequences of failure to provide it
We inform you that the provision of personal data is partly required by law (e.g. tax regulations) or may also result from contractual regulations (e.g. information on the contractual partner). From time to time, it may be necessary for a contract to be concluded that a person concerned provides us with personal data that must subsequently be processed by us. For example, the person concerned shall undertake to provide us with personal data if our company enters into a contract with him or her. The only consequence of not providing personal information is that the contract will not be able to be concluded with the person concerned. Prior to the provision of personal data by the person concerned, the person concerned must contact our data protection officer. Our data protection officer will inform the person concerned on a case-by-case basis whether the provision of personal data is required by law or contract or necessary for the conclusion of the contract, whether there is an obligation to provide the personal data and what consequences the failure to provide the personal data would have.

Existence of automated decision-making
As a responsible company, we abstain from automatic decision-making or profiling.
