1. Data Protection at a Glance

General Information
MHP Hotel am Gendarmenmarkt GmbH (hereinafter referred to as “MHP Hotel GmbH”) is pleased that you are visiting our website and appreciates your interest in our company and our products. Protecting your personal data during its collection, processing, and use when you visit our website is a matter of great importance to us. Below, you will find information about which data is collected during your visit to our website and how it is used.

Data Collection on This Website

Who is responsible for data collection on this website?

Data processing on this website is carried out by the website operator. The operator’s contact details can be found in the section “Information on the Controller” in this Privacy Policy.

How do we collect your data?

Some data is collected when you provide it to us. This may include, for example, information that you enter into a contact form.
Other data is collected automatically or after you have given your consent when you visit the website through our IT systems. This primarily includes technical data (e.g., internet browser, operating system, or the time a page was accessed). This data is collected automatically as soon as you enter this website.

What do we use your data for?

Some of the data is collected to ensure that the website is provided without errors.
Other data may be used to analyze your user behavior.

What rights do you have regarding your data?

You have the right at any time to obtain, free of charge, information about the origin, recipients, and purpose of your stored personal data.
You also have the right to request the correction or deletion of this data.
If you have given consent to data processing, you may revoke this consent at any time with effect for the future.
Furthermore, under certain circumstances, you have the right to request the restriction of the processing of your personal data.
You also have the right to lodge a complaint with the competent supervisory authority.

You may contact us at any time regarding these matters or if you have any further questions about data protection.

Analytics Tools and Third-Party Tools

When visiting this website, your browsing behavior may be statistically evaluated. This is primarily done using analytics programs.

Detailed information about these analytics programs can be found in the following Privacy Policy.

Mandatory information pursuant to Art. 13 and Art. 14 GDPR for applicants (1) Handling applicant data

We offer you the opportunity to apply to us (e.g. by email, post, or via the online application form). Below, we inform you about the scope, purpose, and use of the personal data collected during the application process. We assure you that the collection, processing, and use of your data is carried out in accordance with applicable data protection law and all other legal provisions, and that your data will be treated as strictly confidential.

(2) Scope and purpose of data collection

If you submit an application to us, we process the personal data associated with it (e.g. contact and communication details, application documents, notes from interviews, etc.) insofar as this is necessary to decide on establishing an employment relationship. The legal basis for this is Section 26 BDSG under German law (initiation of an employment relationship), Art. 6(1)(b) GDPR (general pre-contractual measures) and—if you have given your consent—Art. 6(1)(a) GDPR. Consent can be withdrawn at any time. Your personal data will be shared within our company only with persons involved in processing your application. If your application is successful, the data you submitted will be stored in our data processing systems on the basis of Section 26 BDSG and Art. 6(1)(b) GDPR for the purpose of carrying out the employment relationship.

(3) Data retention period

If we are unable to make you a job offer, you reject a job offer, or you withdraw your application, we reserve the right to retain the data you have provided on the basis of our legitimate interests (Art. 6(1)(f) GDPR) for up to 6 months after the end of the application process (rejection or withdrawal of the application). The data will then be deleted and any physical application documents destroyed. Retention serves in particular as evidence in the event of a legal dispute. If it is apparent that the data will be required after the 6-month period (e.g. due to an impending or pending legal dispute), deletion will only take place once the purpose for further retention no longer applies. Longer retention may also take place if you have given corresponding consent (Art. 6(1)(a) GDPR) or if statutory retention obligations prevent deletion.

(4) Inclusion in the applicant pool

If we are unable to make you a job offer, it may be possible to include you in our applicant pool. If you are included, all documents and information from your application will be transferred to the applicant pool so we can contact you if suitable vacancies arise. Inclusion in the applicant pool takes place solely on the basis of your explicit consent (Art. 6(1)(a) GDPR). Giving consent is voluntary and is not related to the ongoing application process. You can withdraw your consent at any time. In this case, the data will be irrevocably deleted from the applicant pool, provided there are no statutory reasons for retention. The data in the applicant pool will be irrevocably deleted no later than two years after consent is given.

Additional features and services on our website

(1) In addition to using our website purely for information purposes, we offer various services that you can use if you are interested. To do so, you will generally need to provide additional personal data, which we use to provide the respective service.

(2) To provide certain services, we use external service providers. They have been carefully selected and commissioned by us, are bound by our instructions, and are regularly monitored.

(3) If our service providers or partners are based in a country outside the European Economic Area (EEA), we will inform you about the consequences of this in the description of the respective service.

Use of the blog/forum features

(1) We provide a blog on our website. This offers users and interested visitors various posts related to our activities that they can use to inform themselves. You do not need to register to read our blog posts and other comments. You also have the option to engage in lively discussion about a blog post via public comments. Registration is required for this participation. When you submit a comment, we process personal data. We necessarily collect your email address and a username. You do not have to use your legal name as a username; a pseudonym is sufficient. We also store your IP address. We store this data in order to defend ourselves against liability claims that may be brought against us due to the publication of unlawful, racist, or inflammatory content. Comments published by users and visitors are not reviewed by us in advance. If comments are reported as unlawful, racist, or inflammatory, we use your email address to contact you in this context. We reserve the right to delete comments in such cases. We process your personal data for as long as the blog post is published on our website, or until you delete your comment. Your data will be deleted subject to statutory retention requirements.

(2) The legal basis for processing your personal data is our legitimate interest pursuant to Art. 6(1) sentence 1 lit. f GDPR.

Information on data transfers to third countries that are not secure under data protection law and transfers to US companies that are not DPF-certified

Among other things, we use tools from companies based in third countries that are not considered secure under data protection law, as well as US tools whose providers are not certified under the EU-US Data Privacy Framework (DPF). If these tools are active, your personal data may be transferred to these countries and processed there. Please note that in third countries that are not secure under data protection law, a level of data protection comparable to that of the EU cannot be guaranteed.

Please note that the USA, as a secure third country, generally has a level of data protection comparable to the EU.

Data transfers to the USA are therefore permitted if the recipient has certification under the “EU-US Data Privacy Framework” (DPF) or has appropriate additional safeguards. Information on transfers to third countries, including the data recipients, can be found in this privacy policy.

Recipients of personal data

In the course of our business activities, we work with various external parties. In some cases, this also requires the transfer of personal data to these external parties. We only pass on personal data to external parties if this is necessary for the performance of a contract, if we are legally obliged to do so (e.g. passing data on to tax authorities), if we have a legitimate interest in the transfer pursuant to Art. 6(1)(f) GDPR, or if another legal basis permits the transfer. When using processors, we only pass on our customers’ personal data on the basis of a valid data processing agreement. In the case of joint processing, a joint processing agreement is concluded.

Withdrawal of your consent to data processing

Many data processing operations are only possible with your explicit consent. You can withdraw consent you have already given at any time. The lawfulness of the data processing carried out up to the point of withdrawal remains unaffected by the withdrawal.

Right to object to data collection in special cases and to direct marketing (Art. 21 GDPR)

IF DATA PROCESSING IS CARRIED OUT ON THE BASIS OF ART. 6(1)(E) OR (F) GDPR, YOU HAVE THE RIGHT AT ANY TIME, FOR REASONS ARISING FROM YOUR PARTICULAR SITUATION, TO OBJECT TO THE PROCESSING OF YOUR PERSONAL DATA; THIS ALSO APPLIES TO PROFILING BASED ON THESE PROVISIONS. THE RELEVANT LEGAL BASIS ON WHICH PROCESSING IS BASED CAN BE FOUND IN THIS PRIVACY POLICY. IF YOU OBJECT, WE WILL NO LONGER PROCESS YOUR PERSONAL DATA UNLESS WE CAN DEMONSTRATE COMPELLING LEGITIMATE GROUNDS FOR THE PROCESSING THAT OVERRIDE YOUR INTERESTS, RIGHTS AND FREEDOMS, OR THE PROCESSING SERVES TO ASSERT, EXERCISE OR DEFEND LEGAL CLAIMS (OBJECTION PURSUANT TO ART. 21(1) GDPR).

IF YOUR PERSONAL DATA ARE PROCESSED FOR DIRECT MARKETING PURPOSES, YOU HAVE THE RIGHT TO OBJECT AT ANY TIME TO THE PROCESSING OF YOUR PERSONAL DATA FOR THE PURPOSE OF SUCH ADVERTISING; THIS ALSO APPLIES TO PROFILING INSOFAR AS IT IS RELATED TO SUCH DIRECT MARKETING. IF YOU OBJECT, YOUR PERSONAL DATA WILL SUBSEQUENTLY NO LONGER BE USED FOR DIRECT MARKETING PURPOSES (OBJECTION PURSUANT TO ART. 21(2) GDPR).

Right to lodge a complaint with the competent supervisory authority

In the event of violations of the GDPR, data subjects have the right to lodge a complaint with a supervisory authority, in particular in the Member State of their habitual residence, their

place of work, or the place of the alleged infringement. This right to lodge a complaint is without prejudice to any other administrative or judicial remedies.

Right to data portability

You have the right to receive data that we process automatically on the basis of your consent or in performance of a contract, and to have it handed over to you or to a third party in a commonly used, machine-readable format. If you request the direct transfer of the data to another controller, this will only be done insofar as it is technically feasible.

Information, correction and deletion

Within the scope of applicable legal provisions, you have the right at any time to free information about your stored personal data, its origin and recipients, and the purpose of data processing, and, if applicable, a right to correction or deletion of this data. For this and for further questions on the subject of personal data, you can contact us at any time.

Right to restriction of processing

You have the right to request the restriction of processing of your personal data. You can contact us at any time for this purpose. The right to restriction of processing applies in the following cases:

If you dispute the accuracy of your personal data stored by us, we generally need time to verify this. For the duration of the review, you have the right to request restriction of processing of your personal data.

If the processing of your personal data was/is unlawful, you can request restriction of data processing instead of deletion.

If we no longer need your personal data, but you need it to exercise, defend, or assert legal claims, you have the right to request restriction of processing of your personal data instead of deletion.

If you have lodged an objection pursuant to Art. 21(1) GDPR, a balancing of your interests and ours must be carried out. As long as it has not yet been determined whose interests prevail, you have the right to request restriction of processing of your personal data.

If you have restricted the processing of your personal data, these data—apart from being stored—may only be processed with your consent or for the assertion, exercise, or defense of legal claims, or to protect the rights of another natural or legal person, or for reasons of important public interest of the European Union or a Member State.

SSL/TLS encryption

For security reasons and to protect the transmission of confidential content, such as orders or inquiries that you send to us as the website operator, this site uses SSL/TLS encryption. You can recognize an encrypted connection by the fact that the browser’s address line changes from

“http://” to “https://” and by the lock symbol in your browser bar.

If SSL/TLS encryption is activated, the data you transmit to us cannot be read by third parties.

Objection to advertising emails

The use of contact data published as part of the legal notice obligation for sending unsolicited advertising and information materials is hereby objected to. The operators of the pages expressly reserve the right to take legal action in the event of unsolicited advertising information being sent, for example via spam emails.

4. Data collection on this website
Consent with Borlabs Cookie

Our website uses the consent technology of Borlabs Cookie to obtain your consent to store certain cookies in your browser or to use certain technologies, and to document this in compliance with data protection regulations. The provider of this technology is Borlabs GmbH, Rübenkamp 32, 22305 Hamburg (hereinafter “Borlabs”).

When you enter our website, a Borlabs cookie is stored in your browser, in which the consents you have given or the withdrawal of these consents are stored. This data is not passed on to the provider of Borlabs Cookie.

The collected data is stored until you request deletion from us, delete the Borlabs cookie yourself, or the purpose for data storage no longer applies. Mandatory statutory retention periods remain unaffected. Details on data processing by Borlabs Cookie can be found at https://de.borlabs.io/kb/welche-daten-speichert-borlabs-cookie/.

Borlabs Cookie’s consent technology is used to obtain the legally required consents for the use of cookies. The legal basis for this is Art. 6(1)(c) GDPR.

Inquiry by email, phone or fax

If you contact us by email, phone, or fax, your inquiry, including all personal data resulting from it (name, inquiry), will be stored and processed by us for the purpose of handling your request. We do not pass this data on without your consent.

This data is processed on the basis of Art. 6(1)(b) GDPR if your inquiry is related to the performance of a contract or is necessary to carry out pre-contractual measures. In all other cases, processing is based on our legitimate interest in effectively handling inquiries addressed to us (Art. 6(1)(f) GDPR) or on your consent (Art. 6(1)(a) GDPR) if this was requested; consent can be withdrawn at any time.

The data you send to us via contact inquiries will remain with us until you request deletion, withdraw your consent to storage, or the purpose for data storage no longer applies (e.g. after your request has been fully processed). Mandatory statutory provisions—especially statutory retention periods—remain unaffected.

6. Analytics tools and advertising
Google Tag Manager

We use Google Tag Manager. The provider is Google Ireland Limited, Gordon House, Barrow Street, Dublin 4, Ireland.

Google Tag Manager is a tool that helps us integrate tracking or statistics tools and other technologies on our website. Google Tag Manager itself does not create user profiles, does not store cookies, and does not carry out independent analyses. It only serves to manage and deliver the tools integrated via it. However, Google Tag Manager does collect your IP address, which may also be transferred to Google’s parent company in the United States.

Google Tag Manager is used on the basis of Art. 6(1)(f) GDPR. The website operator has a legitimate interest in the quick and uncomplicated integration and management of various tools on its website. If corresponding consent has been requested, processing is carried out exclusively on the basis of Art. 6(1)(a) GDPR and Section 25(1) TTDSG, insofar as the consent includes the storage of cookies or access to information on the user’s end device (e.g. device fingerprinting) within the meaning of the TTDSG.

Google Analytics

This website uses functions of the web analytics service Google Analytics. The provider is Google Ireland Limited (“Google”), Gordon House, Barrow Street, Dublin 4, Ireland.

Google Analytics enables the website operator to analyze the behavior of website visitors. In doing so, the website operator receives various usage data, such as page views, time spent on the site, operating systems used, and the user’s origin. This data is summarized in a user ID and assigned to the respective end device of the website visitor.

In addition, we can use Google Analytics to record, among other things, your mouse movements, scrolling behavior, and clicks. Google Analytics also uses various modeling approaches to supplement the collected data sets and uses machine learning technologies in data analysis.

Google Analytics uses technologies that enable the recognition of the user for the purpose of analyzing user behavior (e.g. cookies or device fingerprinting). The information collected by Google about the use of this website is generally transmitted to a Google server in the USA and stored there.

This means your IP address is shortened by Google within Member States of the European Union or in other contracting states of the Agreement on the European Economic Area before being transmitted to the USA. Only in exceptional cases is the full IP address transmitted to a Google server in the USA and shortened there. On behalf of the operator of this website, Google will use this information to evaluate your use of the website, to compile reports on website activity, and to provide other services related to website and internet usage to the website operator.

Google AdSense (non-personalized)

This website uses Google AdSense, a service for integrating ads. The provider is Google Ireland Limited (“Google”), Gordon House, Barrow Street, Dublin 4, Ireland.

We use Google AdSense in “non-personalized” mode. Unlike personalized mode, the ads are not based on your previous user behavior and no user profile is created about you. Instead, so-called “context information” is used when selecting ads. The selected ads are then based, for example, on your location, the content of the website you are on, or your current search terms. You can find out more about the differences between personalized and non-personalized targeting with Google AdSense at:

https://support.google.com/adsense/answer/9007336.

may be used. According to Google, these are used to combat fraud and abuse.

With Google Ads Remarketing, we can assign people who interact with our online offering to specific target groups in order to then show them interest-based advertising in the Google advertising network (remarketing or retargeting).

In addition, the advertising audiences created with Google Ads Remarketing can be linked with Google’s cross-device functions. In this way, interest-based, personalized advertising messages that were adapted to you depending on your previous usage and browsing behavior on one device (e.g. mobile phone) can also be displayed on another of your devices (e.g. tablet or PC).

If you have a Google account, you can object to personalized advertising at the following link:

Audience Creation with Customer Matching

For audience creation, we use, among other things, Google Ads Remarketing’s customer matching. Here, we transfer certain customer data (e.g., email addresses) from our customer lists to Google. If the customers concerned are Google users and logged into their Google account, relevant advertising messages will be displayed to them within the Google network (e.g., on YouTube, Gmail, or in the search engine).

Google Conversion Tracking

This website uses Google Conversion Tracking. The provider is Google Ireland Limited (“Google”), Gordon House, Barrow Street, Dublin 4, Ireland.

With the help of Google Conversion Tracking, Google and we can recognize whether the user has performed certain actions. For example, we can evaluate how often certain buttons on our website were clicked and which products were viewed or purchased particularly frequently.

7. Newsletter
This website uses Rapidmail for sending newsletters. The provider is rapidmail GmbH, Augustinerplatz 2, 79098 Freiburg i.Br., Germany.

Rapidmail is a service that can be used, among other things, to organize and analyze the sending of newsletters. The data you enter for the purpose of subscribing to the newsletter is stored on Rapidmail’s servers in Germany.

Data Analysis by Rapidmail

For analysis purposes, emails sent with Rapidmail contain a so-called “tracking pixel” which connects to Rapidmail’s servers when the email is opened. This allows us to determine whether a newsletter message has been opened.

Furthermore, with the help of Rapidmail, we can determine whether and which links in the newsletter message are clicked. All links in the email are so-called tracking links, which can count your clicks. If you do not want analysis by Rapidmail, you must unsubscribe from the newsletter. For this purpose, we provide a corresponding link in every newsletter message.

Further details on Rapidmail’s analysis functions can be found at the following link: https://de.rapidmail.wiki/kategorien/statistiken/.

Legal Basis

Data processing is carried out on the basis of your consent (Art. 6 para. 1 lit. a GDPR). You can revoke this consent at any time. The legality of the data processing operations already carried out remains unaffected by the revocation.

Storage Period

The data you have provided to us for the purpose of newsletter subscription will be stored by us or the newsletter service provider until you unsubscribe from the newsletter and will be deleted from the newsletter distribution list after unsubscribing. Data stored by us for other purposes remains unaffected by this.

After you unsubscribe from the newsletter distribution list, your email address may be stored in a blacklist by us or the newsletter service provider, if this is necessary to prevent future mailings. The data from the blacklist will only be used for this purpose and will not be merged with other data. This serves both your interest and our interest in complying with legal requirements when sending newsletters (legitimate interest within the meaning of Art. 6 para. 1 lit. f GDPR). Storage in the blacklist is not time-limited. You can object to the storage if your interests outweigh our legitimate interest.

Further details can be found in Rapidmail’s data security notices at: https://www.rapidmail.de/datensicherheit.

Data Processing Agreement

We have concluded a data processing agreement (DPA) for the use of the above-mentioned service. This is a contract required by data protection law, which ensures that the service processes the personal data of our website visitors only according to our instructions and in compliance with the GDPR.

Newsletter Dispatch to Existing Customers

If you order goods or services from us and provide your email address, this email address may subsequently be used by us for sending newsletters, provided we inform you about this in advance. In such a case, the newsletter will only send direct advertising for our own similar goods or services. You can cancel the sending of this newsletter at any time. For this purpose, a corresponding link is provided in every newsletter.

The legal basis for sending the newsletter in this case is Art. 6 para. 1 lit. f GDPR in conjunction with § 7 para. 3 UWG.

After you unsubscribe from the newsletter distribution list, your email address may be stored in a blacklist by us to prevent future mailings to you.

This serves both your interest and our interest in complying with legal requirements when sending newsletters (legitimate interest within the meaning of Art. 6 para. 1 lit. f GDPR). Storage in the blacklist is not time-limited. You can object to the storage if your interests outweigh our legitimate interest.

10. Own Services
Handling of Applicant Data

We offer you the opportunity to apply to us (e.g., by email, post, or via an online application form). In the following, we inform you about the scope, purpose, and use of your personal data collected during the application process. We assure you that the collection, processing, and use of your data comply with applicable data protection law and all other legal provisions, and that your data will be treated with strict confidentiality.

Scope and Purpose of Data Collection

If you send us an application, we process your associated personal data (e.g., contact and communication data, application documents, notes from job interviews, etc.) to the extent necessary for deciding on the establishment of an employment relationship. The legal basis for this is § 26 BDSG under German law (initiation of an employment relationship), Art. 6 para. 1 lit. b GDPR (general contract initiation) and – if you have given consent – Art. 6 para. 1 lit. a GDPR. Consent can be revoked at any time. Your personal data will only be passed on within our company to persons involved in processing your application.

If the application is successful, the data you submitted will be stored in our data processing systems on the basis of § 26 BDSG and Art. 6 para. 1 lit. b GDPR for the purpose of carrying out the employment relationship.

Data Retention Period

If we cannot offer you a position, you reject a job offer, or withdraw your application, we reserve the right to retain the data you submitted for up to 6 months from the end of the application process (rejection or withdrawal of the application) based on our legitimate interests (Art. 6 para. 1 lit. f GDPR)

with us.

Subsequently, the data will be deleted and physical application documents destroyed. The retention serves, in particular, as evidence in the event of a legal dispute. If it is apparent that the data will be required after the 6-month period (e.g., due to an impending or pending legal dispute), deletion will only take place when the purpose for further retention ceases.

Longer retention may also occur if you have given corresponding consent (Art. 6 para. 1 lit. a GDPR) or if legal retention obligations prevent deletion.
