This data protection information is applicable to the Internet presence offered by the GenoHotel Baunatal. If offers of other providers (“third-party offers) are available from our Internet offer, our data protection information shall not be applicable to these third-party offers.

1. Processing of data without reference to individuals
1.1 Surfing our Website

Basically, you may visit our site without informing us about your identity. Then, we will know only
• your IP address,
• the name of the called-up website and/or retrieved file as well as the time of the calling-up and/or retrieval,
• the transmitted data volume; and
• whether the calling-up or retrieval was successful.

The data will exclusively be used for an administration and optimization of the Internet offer.
The IP address may be a personal piece of information since it is possible under certain circumstances to find out the identity of the owner of the used Internet access by information from the respective Internet provider.

We will evaluate the IP address only in the case of attacks on our Internet infrastructure. In this case we have a justified interest in the processing of the IP address pursuant to Art. 6 sect. 1 f) DSGVO [General Data Protection Regulation] This justified interest is based on the need to ward off attacks on the Internet infrastructure, find out the origin of the attack for filing criminal and civil action against the responsible person as well as prevent other attacks efficiently.

The IP address will be deleted whenever we can rule out any attacks on our Internet structure from this address. This will happen regularly after 7 days.


1.2 Using Cookies

Our Internet offer uses cookies as well. Cookies are small data packets that are stored on the hard disk of your computer through your browser. They are designed for controlling the Internet connection during your visit or a later visit to our websites, thus making the visit more convenient.
Some browsers already allow cookies in their default settings. If you do not want them, you may change the setting of your browser. Please refer to the information of the browser manufacturer for how to proceed. If you make a decision against cookies, it may happen that parts of our Internet offer cannot be used.


1.3 Tracking and web analysis services
1.3.1 Google Analytics

This website uses Google Analytics, a web analysis service of the Google Inc (“Google”).

Google Analytics uses “cookies“ as well. The information generated through a cookie by your use of this website is normally sent to a Google server in the USA and is stored there. This website uses Google Analytics with the extension „_anonymizeIp()“. Thus, IP addresses from Google within the member states of the European Union or in other Contracting States to the Agreement on the European Economic Area are contracted before. Thus, direct reference to individuals can be excluded within the scope of further processing. It is only in exceptional cases that a full IP address is sent to a Google server in the USA and can be contracted there. Google will use this information on behalf of the provider of this website to evaluate your use of the website to compile reports on the website activities and provide other services in connection with the use of the website and the Internet for the website operator. The IP address transmitted by your browser within the scope of Google Analytics will not be merged with other Google data.

You may prevent the storage of the cookies by a particular setting of your browser software; please note, however, that in this case it may be not be possible to use all functions of this website fully.

In addition, you may prevent the acquisition of the web-related data as generated by the cookie and used by you (incl. the IP address) to Google and prevent Google from processing this data by loading down and installing the browser plug-in as available at the following link: http://tools.google.com/dlpage/gaoptout?hl=de.
Google Analytics is used in compliance with the requirements as agreed by the German data protection authorities and Google.
