COLLECTION AND PROCESSING OF PERSONAL DATA

You can visit our Web site without revealing your identity. Our Web server automatically stores information of a general nature.

If you seek employment with us, we merely use the personal data transmitted as part of your application to evaluate that application.
When you sign up to read the Sans Souci Wien newsletter, which appears several times a year, we use your data in order to transmit it to you.

Use of Google Analytics, Google Conversion Tracking and Google Remarketing
This Web site uses Google Analytics, Google Conversion Tracking and Google Remarketing. These are services of Google Inc., 1600 Amphitheatre Parkway, Mountain View, CA 94043, United States (“Google”).
Google uses “cookies”, and therefore text data files, that are stored on your computer and that makes possible the analysis of our Internet offering. The information gathered by the cookies regarding your usage of this Web site (including your IP address) is then sent to a Google server in the USA and stored there. Google observes the data protection provisions of the “US Safe Harbor” Convention and is registered with the U.S. Department of Commerce as a participant in the “Safe Harbor” Program. Google uses this information to evaluate your use of the Web site in order to create reports for us about your Web site activities and, in addition, about your use of services related to the Web site and Internet use. Third-party providers, including Google, place ads on Internet Web sites. Third-party providers, including Google, use stored cookies to provide ads on our Web site on the basis of previous visits by a user.

USE OF FACEBOOK SOCIAL PLUG-INS

Our Internet presence uses social plug-ins (“plug-ins”) of the social network facebook.com that is operated by Facebook Inc., 1601 S. California Ave, Palo Alto, CA 94304, USA (“Facebook”). The plug-ins are designated through the Facebook logo or use of the phrase “Facebook social plug-in.” When you call up a Web site that is part of our Internet presence and that contains such a plug-in, then your browser connects directly with the servers of Facebook. The content of the plug-ins are transmitted directly to your browser from Facebook and then used to incorporate them into the Web site. By incorporating the plug-ins Facebook receives information that you have called up the corresponding page of our Internet presence. If you are logged in to Facebook, then Facebook can assign the visit to your Facebook account. If you interact with the plug-ins, e.g. if you use the “like” feature or provide commentary, then the corresponding information will be transferred from your browser directly to Facebook and stored there. The purpose and extent of data collection, the further processing and use of data by Facebook, as well as your rights in this regard and the various possible settings to protect your privacy are to be found in Facebook’s data protection guidelines. If you do not wish for Facebook to use our Internet presence as a way to collect information about you, then you must log out of Facebook before visiting us on the Internet.

USE OF THE +1 BUTTON/ GOOGLE +1 BUTTON

Our Internet presence uses the “+1″ button of the social network Google Plus that is operated by Google Inc., 1600 Amphitheatre Parkway, Mountain View, CA 94043, United States (“Google”). The button is identifiable through the “+1″ sign on a white or colored background.
When you call up a Web site associated with our Internet presence that has such a social button, your browser connects directly with the servers of Google. The content of the “+1″ plug-in is transmitted directly to your browser from Google, which is then used to incorporate it into the Web site. We therefore have no influence on the extent of data that Google collects through the button. According to Google, if one does not click on the button, no personal data is collected. Such data, including the IP address, is only collected and processed for logged-in members.
The purpose and extent of data collection, the further processing and use of data by Google, as well as your rights in this regard and the various possible settings to protect your privacy are to be found in Google’s data protection guidelines concerning the “+1” button: http://www.google.com/intl/de/+/policy/+1button.html and the FAQ: http://bit.ly/r3Qmer.
If you are a Google Plus member and do not wish for Google to use our Internet presence as a way to collect information about you and to link this information with the membership data about you which Google has stored, then you must log out of Google Plus before visiting us on the Internet.
