Privacy Policy

1. Introduction

In the following, we provide information about the collection of personal data when using our website https://www.thetreasuryhotel.de.
Personal data is any data that can be related to a specific natural person, such as their name or IP address.

1.1. Contact details

The controller within the meaning of Art. 4 para. 7 EU General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR) is:
Treasury Hotel
Hellersbergstraße 8
41460 Neuss, Germany
Phone: +49 179 4324280
Email: reservations@thetreasuryhotel.de
We are legally represented by Kevin Kempe, Maik Kempe, Lawrence D.

1.2. Scope of data processing, processing purposes and legal bases

We detail the scope of data processing, processing purposes and legal bases below. In principle, the following come into consideration as the legal basis for data processing:
Art. 6 para. 1 s. 1 lit. a GDPR serves as our legal basis for processing operations for which we obtain consent.
Art. 6 para. 1 s. 1 lit. b GDPR is the legal basis insofar as the processing of personal data is necessary for the performance of a contract, e.g. if a site visitor books a stay with us. This legal basis also applies to processing that is necessary for pre-contractual measures, such as in the case of inquiries about our rooms or services.
Art. 6 para. 1 s. 1 lit. c GDPR applies if we fulfill a legal obligation by processing personal data, as may be the case, for example, in tax law.
Art. 6 para. 1 s. 1 lit. f GDPR serves as the legal basis when we can rely on legitimate interests to process personal data, e.g. for cookies that are necessary for the technical operation of our website.

1.3. Data processing outside the EEA

Insofar as we transfer data to service providers or other third parties outside the EEA, the security of the data during the transfer is guaranteed by adequacy decisions of the EU Commission, insofar as they exist (e.g. for Great Britain, Canada and Israel) (Art. 45 para. 3 GDPR).
If no adequacy decision exists (e.g. for the USA), the legal basis for the data transfer are usually standard contractual clauses (Art. 46 para. 2 lit. b GDPR). Many providers also give contractual guarantees beyond these clauses, such as encryption or notification obligations.

1.4. Storage duration

Unless expressly stated otherwise in this privacy policy, the data we store will be deleted as soon as they are no longer required for their intended purpose and no legal retention obligations prevent deletion. If data must be retained, processing will be restricted (data will be blocked and not processed for other purposes).

1.5. Rights of data subjects

Data subjects have the following rights regarding their personal data:
Right of access
Right to rectification or deletion
Right to restriction of processing
Right to object to processing
Right to data portability
Right to withdraw consent at any time
Data subjects also have the right to complain to a supervisory authority. Contact details can be found here:

1.6. Obligation to provide data

Customers or third parties must provide us with personal data necessary for establishing, executing, or terminating a business or other relationship, or that we are legally obliged to collect. Without this data, we may not be able to conclude or perform contracts.

1.7. No automated decision-making
We do not use fully automated decision-making (Art. 22 GDPR). Should we use such procedures in individual cases, we will inform separately if required by law.

1.8. Contacting us

When contacting us (e.g. via email or phone), the provided data (e.g. name, email, phone) will be stored by us to answer the inquiry. Legal basis: Art. 6 para. 1 s. 1 lit. f GDPR (legitimate interest in responding). Data is deleted once no longer necessary unless retention obligations exist.

1.9. Customer surveys

From time to time, we may conduct surveys. Participation is voluntary. Data is processed based on Art. 6 para. 1 s. 1 lit. f GDPR (legitimate interest in improving our services) and deleted once no longer needed.

2. Newsletter
