This website works without cookies, without advertising trackers and without fonts or scripts embedded from third parties.
Hosting
The website is hosted by Cloudflare, Inc. (101 Townsend St, San Francisco, CA 94107, USA). When you visit, Cloudflare processes technically necessary data such as IP address, time, page requested and browser type in order to deliver the site and protect it against attacks. The legal basis is the legitimate interest in secure and fast operation (Art. 6(1)(f) GDPR). Cloudflare is certified under the EU-US Data Privacy Framework.
Enquiry form and email
If you use the enquiry form or send an email, I process the data you provide (name, email address, optionally WhatsApp number, travel dates, number of guests, message) in order to answer your enquiry and handle a booking. The legal basis is Art. 6(1)(b) GDPR (pre-contractual measures). The form data is transmitted to me as an email via Cloudflare.
Enquiries that do not lead to a booking are deleted after twelve months at the latest. Booking records are kept for as long as statutory retention periods require.
When you tap a WhatsApp button, WhatsApp opens with a prepared message. Data is only transmitted to WhatsApp (WhatsApp Ireland Limited, Meta) once you send the message. WhatsApp’s privacy policy then applies. If you prefer not to use it, please use the form or email.
Map (OpenStreetMap)
The map on the “Diani & Surroundings” page is only loaded when you click “Load map”. Your IP address is then transmitted to the OpenStreetMap Foundation (United Kingdom). The legal basis is your consent (Art. 6(1)(a) GDPR).
Availability calendar
The availability calendar only shows which days are booked. It contains no data about guests.
Statistics
Cloudflare Web Analytics may be used to measure reach. The service works without cookies, creates no user profiles and does not store IP addresses permanently. The legal basis is the legitimate interest in designing the website to meet demand (Art. 6(1)(f) GDPR).
External links
Links to Google Maps, Airbnb, Booking.com and other sites are simple references. Data is only transmitted once you click the link.
Your rights
You have the right to access, rectification, erasure, restriction of processing, data portability and objection. You can withdraw consent at any time. To do so, write to the email address given above.
You can also lodge a complaint with the supervisory authority: Austrian Data Protection Authority, Barichgasse 40–42, 1030 Vienna, www.dsb.gv.at.
