We use cookies and similar technologies (collectively "tools") on our website.
Cookies are small text files that are stored on the storage medium of your end device, for example on a hard disk. The information contained in the cookie can be read by us, for example with the help of JavaScript. Cookies cannot execute programs or transfer viruses to your end device. This website uses the following types of tools, the scope and function of which are explained below.
Cookies that are stored associated with your web browser:
- Transient cookies: These cookies are automatically deleted when you close your web browser. These include session cookies in particular. These store, for example, a so-called session ID, which can be used to assign various requests from your web browser to the shared session.
- Persistent cookies: These cookies are automatically deleted after a specified period, which may vary depending on the cookie. Persistent cookies make it possible, for example, to recognize your device when you return to our website. You can delete these cookies at any time in the settings of your web browser.
The aforementioned cookies are stored on your end device and transmitted from it to our server or read by us. You can therefore configure the processing of data and information by cookies yourself. You can make appropriate configurations in the settings of your web browser, through which you can, for example, reject third-party cookies or cookies altogether. In this context, we would like to point out that you may then not be able to use all the functions of our website properly.

Comparable technologies include web storage (local / session storage), which is stored on your end device, as well as JavaScript, tags or pixels, which are used to read information from your end device or transmit it passively. These technologies can also be used to create fingerprints.
b) On what legal basis are tools used?
The processing of personal data by necessary tools serves to make our website more user-friendly and effective for you. Some functions of our website cannot be offered without the use of these tools. In particular, some functions of our website require that your web browser can be identified even after a page change. If you have an account, we use tools to identify you for subsequent visits. This prevents you from having to log in again each time you visit our website. The data processed by tools that are required to provide the functions of our website are not used to create user profiles.
Where optional tools are used for analysis purposes, these serve to improve the quality and user-friendliness of our website, its content and functions. They enable us to understand how the website, which functions are used and how often they are used. This enables us to continuously optimize our offering.
Our legitimate interest in data processing lies in the aforementioned purposes, provided they are necessary tools (section 8). The legal basis in these cases is Art. 6 para. 1 lit. f) GDPR. If the necessary tools are required for the fulfillment of a contract or for the implementation of pre-contractual measures, the legal basis is Art. 6 para. 1 lit. b) GDPR.
Insofar as these are not necessary tools, but functional tools (section 7), analysis tools (section 6) or marketing tools (section 9), we only use these with your express consent, Art. 6 para. 1 lit a) GDPR.
c) How do we obtain your consent?
To obtain and manage your consent, we use the CookieFirst tool from the provider Digital Data Solutions B.V., Plantage Middenlaan 42a, 1018DH, Amsterdam, Netherlands. This generates a banner that informs you about the data processing on our website and gives you the option of consenting to all, individual or no data processing through optional categories of tools. This banner appears the first time you visit our website and when you call up the selection of your settings again in order to change them or revoke your consent. The banner will also appear on subsequent visits to our website if you have deactivated the storage of cookies or if the cookie or the elements in CookieFirst's local storage have been deleted or have expired.
As part of your website visit, your consent or revocation, your IP address, information about your browser, your end device and the time of your visit are transmitted to Digital Data Solutions. CookieFirst also sets necessary cookies ("cookiefirst-consent" (360 days)) and stores information in local storage ("cookiefirst-consent", "cookiefirst-id", "cookie-first-old-consent") in order to retain your consents and revocations. If you delete your cookies or information in local storage, we will ask you for your consent again when you visit the site at a later date.
Data processing by CookieFirst is necessary to provide you with the legally required consent management and to comply with our documentation obligations. The legal basis for the use of CookieFirst is Art. 6 para. 1 lit. f) GDPR, justified by our legitimate interest in fulfilling the legal requirements for cookie consent management.
To revoke your consent, please refer to section 14. You can adjust the tools used under the heading "Privacy settings" at the end of this privacy policy and revoke your consent for them there.

Automated decision making
As part of our letting processes, we use automated decision-making to assess the creditworthiness of potential tenants. This assessment is used to determine a maximum rent, which serves as an upper limit for booking requests by the tenant. This practice is carried out in accordance with Art. 22 GDPR. We would like to point out that you have the right to request a manual review of the decision, to present your views and to contest the decision.
Storage period
In principle, we only store personal data for as long as necessary to fulfill the purposes for which we collected the data. We then delete or anonymize the data immediately, unless we still need the data for evidence purposes until the statutory limitation period for civil law claims expires or due to statutory retention obligations.
For evidence purposes, we must retain contract data for three years from the end of the year in which the business relationship with you ends. Any claims become time-barred in accordance with the statutory limitation period at the earliest at this time.
Even after this, we still have to store some of your data for accounting reasons. We are obliged to do so due to statutory documentation obligations, which may arise, for example, from the German Commercial Code, the German Fiscal Code, the German Banking Act, the German Money Laundering Act and the German Securities Trading Act. The periods specified there for the retention of documents are two to ten years.
Transfer of data to third parties
The data collected by us will only be passed on if:
- you have given your express consent to this in accordance with Art. 6 para. 1 lit. a) GDPR,
- the disclosure pursuant to Art. 6 para. 1 lit. f) GDPR is necessary for the assertion, exercise or defense of legal claims and there is no reason to assume that you have an overriding interest worthy of protection in not disclosing your data,
- we are legally obliged to disclose data in accordance with Art. 6 para. 1 lit. c) GDPR, in particular if this is necessary for legal prosecution or enforcement due to official inquiries, court orders and legal proceedings, or
- this is legally permissible and required under Art. 6 (1) (b) GDPR for the processing of contractual relationships with you or for the implementation of pre-contractual measures that are carried out at your request.
Some of the data processing may be carried out by our service providers. In addition to the service providers mentioned in this privacy policy, this may include, in particular, data centers that store our website and databases, software providers, IT service providers that maintain our systems, agencies, market research companies, group companies and consulting firms. If we pass on data to our service providers, they may only use the data to fulfill their tasks. The service providers have been carefully selected and commissioned by us. They are contractually bound by our instructions, have suitable technical and organizational measures in place to protect the rights of the data subjects and are regularly monitored by us.
Data transfer to third countries
As explained in this privacy policy, we use services whose providers are partly located in so-called third countries (outside the European Union or the European Economic Area) and/or process personal data there, i.e. countries whose level of data protection does not correspond to that of the European Union. If this is the case and the European Commission has not issued an adequacy decision for these countries (Art. 45 GDPR), we have taken appropriate precautions to ensure an adequate level of data protection for any data transfers. These include the standard contractual clauses of the European Union or binding internal data protection regulations.
Where this is not possible, we base the transfer of data on exceptions under Art. 49 GDPR, in particular your express consent or the necessity of the transfer for the fulfillment of the contract or for the implementation of pre-contractual measures.
If a transfer to a third country is planned and no adequacy decision or suitable guarantees exist, it is possible and there is a risk that authorities in the respective third country (e.g. secret services) may gain access to the transferred data in order to collect and analyze it, and that the enforceability of your data subject rights cannot be guaranteed. If your consent is obtained via the cookie banner, you will also be informed of this.
