Privacy

This website does not follow you around the web. One single service analyses how this page is used — and it is loaded only once you agree. Below you will find which data arises, and why.

This website does not follow you around the web. Two things come from outside providers — the usage analysis and the booking calendar — and both are loaded only once you allow them. Below you will find which data arises, and why.

This is a translation for your convenience. The German version is the legally binding one.

The main point first: we do not embed fonts, maps or videos from third-party servers. There are no advertising networks and no profile about you. Cookies arise in one single place: if you agree to statistics in the banner. If you decline, nothing is passed to third parties — you can still use the whole website and enquire as normal.

The main point first: we do not embed fonts, maps or videos from third-party servers. There are no advertising networks and no profile about you. Cookies arise in two places: statistics and the booking calendar — both only after you agree, and each asked separately. If you decline, nothing is transferred; you can still enquire using the form or by email.

Visiting the website

When you open a page, your browser transmits technically necessary data to the server hosting this website. These are stored in what are known as server log files:

Without this data a website cannot technically be delivered. The legal basis is Article 6(1)(f) GDPR — our legitimate interest in secure and trouble-free operation. This data is not combined with any other data.

Hosting

This website is hosted on GitHub Pages, a service of GitHub, Inc., 88 Colin P. Kelly Jr. Street, San Francisco, CA 94107, USA. For users in the European Union, GitHub B.V., Amsterdam, Netherlands, acts as the provider's responsible entity.

Data may also be transferred to the USA in the process. GitHub is certified under the EU-US Data Privacy Framework. The transfer is therefore based on Article 45 GDPR in conjunction with the adequacy decision of the European Commission, and additionally on standard contractual clauses under Article 46 GDPR.

Enquiry form

The form on the home page does not transmit your entries via this website. When you click "Send enquiry", your own email program opens with a prepared message. Your data only reaches us once you send that email yourself — by exactly the same route as if you had written to us by hand. No data is stored or processed on this website in the process.

Enquiries by email

When you write to us, we process the details you provide — usually your name, company, email address, travel dates, number of guests and your message — solely in order to deal with your enquiry.

The legal basis is Article 6(1)(b) GDPR where the enquiry is aimed at a contract, and otherwise Article 6(1)(f) GDPR.

We delete your enquiry once it has been dealt with and no statutory retention periods stand in the way. If a booking comes about, the commercial and tax retention periods of six and ten years respectively apply to invoices and receipts.

Consent and cookies

On your first visit we ask you, through a banner at the bottom of the page, whether you allow statistics. Nothing is loaded and no cookie is set beforehand. “Only necessary” is just as quick to click as “I agree” — both buttons are the same size and sit side by side.

Your decision itself — a “yes” or a “no” — is remembered by your browser in its local storage (entry “statistik-einwilligung”), so that the banner does not reappear on every page you open. This entry never leaves your device and contains nothing about you. It is strictly necessary under section 25(2) no. 2 TDDDG and therefore requires no consent. If you clear the site data in your browser, it is gone.

Statistics: Microsoft Clarity

If you agree, we use Microsoft Clarity, a web analytics service provided by Microsoft Ireland Operations Limited, One Microsoft Place, South County Business Park, Leopardstown, Dublin 18, Ireland.

Clarity sets cookies or comparable technologies and records how this website is used — for example mouse movements, clicks and scrolling behaviour, as well as the heatmaps and session recordings derived from them. This shows us which sections are read and where visitors give up, so that we can make the page clearer.

Data may also be transferred to Microsoft servers in the United States. Microsoft Corporation is certified under the EU-US Data Privacy Framework; the transfer is based on Article 45 GDPR in conjunction with the adequacy decision of the European Commission, and additionally on standard contractual clauses under Article 46 GDPR.

The legal basis for storing and reading the cookies is your consent under section 25(1) TDDDG, and for the subsequent processing of your data, Article 6(1)(a) GDPR. Consent is voluntary; without it you can use the website in full. Further details are in Microsoft’s privacy statement.

Withdrawing consent

You can change your decision at any time: through the Cookie settings link at the foot of every page — or directly here. Withdrawal takes effect for the future; what was transferred beforehand is unaffected.

Consent for the booking calendar

The booking calendar needs cookies of its own to hold your selections together during the booking process. It comes from our booking system and is therefore asked separately from statistics: agreeing to statistics does not automatically mean agreeing to the calendar.

That is why we ask beforehand. Only when you click "Load calendar" is a connection to that provider established at all. If you click "Continue without calendar", nothing happens — you can still enquire about the apartment using the form or by email.

The legal basis for storing and reading the cookies is your consent under section 25(1) TDDDG, and for the subsequent processing of your data, Article 6(1)(a) GDPR.

Withdrawing calendar consent

This decision too can be changed at any time — here, or in the booking section of the home page. After withdrawal the calendar is no longer loaded. Withdrawal takes effect for the future; what was transferred beforehand is unaffected. Your decision is remembered locally in the same way as described above.

Online booking

Online booking runs through our booking system Hostaway. It is operated by Hostaway Opco Oy, a company under Finnish law (registration number 3472936-9). Hostaway works for us as a processor on the basis of a contract under Article 28 GDPR.

The calendar is embedded in our page as a window onto an external site. As soon as you load it, Hostaway receives your IP address, details of your browser and device, and the information about which page you opened. If you actually book, the booking data is added: name, address, email address, telephone number, travel dates and number of guests.

The legal basis for handling the booking is Article 6(1)(b) GDPR — performance of the accommodation contract. For loading the calendar and the cookies set in the process, it is your consent.

Where data is processed outside the European Union in the process, this is based on the safeguards agreed in the data processing agreement, in particular standard contractual clauses under Article 46 GDPR.

Payment

Payment is handled by a payment service provider integrated into the booking system. You enter your card details there; we ourselves neither see nor store them. We only receive the information whether and in what amount payment was made. The legal basis is Article 6(1)(b) GDPR.

[Before going live: enter the payment service provider actually used, with its full address. The details are in the contract or the data processing agreement. For Stripe the European entity is: Stripe Payments Europe, Limited, Ireland.]

Retention

We keep booking data for as long as it is needed to handle the booking. For invoices and receipts, the commercial and tax retention periods of six and ten years respectively apply thereafter.

Booking

No online booking engine is currently embedded. Enquiries reach us solely through the form or by email. As soon as online booking is set up, this section will be extended to cover the booking and payment service providers and the data processed there.

Booking portals

If you book the apartment through Booking.com or Airbnb, the privacy terms of the respective portal apply to the booking process. We receive from them the data necessary for the accommodation.

Your rights

You have the right at any time to information about the data stored about you, and to rectification, erasure, restriction of processing and data portability, as well as a right to object to processing based on a legitimate interest. An informal email is enough.

Right to complain

You can lodge a complaint with a data protection supervisory authority. The authority responsible for us is:

Version

August 2026. This notice will be updated as soon as the website changes — in particular when the booking engine is added.

Prepared: the sections on online booking are already written. They appear automatically as soon as the booking engine is switched on. All that remains to fill in is the payment service provider.

Still to be filled in: the payment service provider in the "Online booking" section (marked in gold).

This notice reflects the current state of the website and has been prepared with care, but it is not legal advice.
