If you would like to exercise your right of objection, simply send an email to: info@njoy-homes.com.
3 Transfer of data
If you as a user contact a landlord via the booking request function, the operator will transmit all data you entered there to the respective landlord.
In other cases, your data will only be passed on to third parties with your express prior consent. The only exception to this is in the case of an express official or court order, insofar as the operator is legally obliged to provide information.
Under no circumstances will your data be sold or rented by the operator. Please note, however, that by integrating third-party content into the portal, your IP address may be transmitted directly to the third parties concerned.
4 Duration of data storage
The personal data of the data subject will be deleted or blocked as soon as the purpose for which they were stored no longer applies. Data may also be stored if this has been provided for by the European or national legislator in EU regulations, laws or other provisions to which the operator is subject. Data will also be blocked or deleted if a storage period prescribed by the aforementioned standards expires, unless there is a need to continue storing the data for the conclusion or fulfillment of a contract.
5 Right to lodge a complaint with a supervisory authority
Those affected have the right to lodge a complaint with a supervisory authority at any time; e.g. with the state data protection officer responsible for us.
6 cookies
a) Description and scope of data processing
The operator's portal uses cookies. Cookies are text files that are stored in the Internet browser or by the Internet browser on the user's computer system. When a user visits a website, a cookie can be stored on the user's operating system. This cookie contains a characteristic string that enables the browser to be uniquely identified when the website is visited again.
The operator uses cookies to make its portal more user-friendly. Some elements of the portal require that the browser accessing the portal can be identified even after a page change.
The following data is stored and transmitted in the cookies:
• Log-in information
• Language settings
The operator also uses cookies on the portal to enable analysis of users’ surfing behavior.
In this way, the following data can be transmitted:
• Search terms entered
• Frequency of page views
• Use of website functions
The user data collected on the portal is pseudonymized using technical precautions. It is therefore no longer possible to assign the data to the user who accessed it. The data is not stored together with other personal data of the user.
When accessing the portal, users are informed about the use of cookies for analysis purposes by an information banner and are referred to this privacy statement. In this context, there is also an indication of how the storage of cookies can be prevented in the browser settings.
b) Legal basis for data processing
The legal basis for the processing of personal data using cookies is Art. 6 (1) (f) GDPR.
c) Purpose of data processing
The purpose of using technically necessary cookies is to simplify the use of the portal for users. Some functions of the portal cannot be offered without the use of cookies. For these, it is necessary that the browser is recognized even after changing pages.
We need cookies for the following applications:
• Remembering search terms
• Language settings
The user data collected through technically necessary cookies is not used to create user profiles.
The analysis cookies are used to improve the quality of the portal and its content. The analysis cookies enable the operator to learn how the portal is used and thus continuously optimize its offering.
For these purposes, the legitimate interest in processing personal data also lies in accordance with Art. 6 (1) (f) GDPR.
d) Duration of storage, possibility of objection and removal/Cookie settings
Cookies are stored on the user's computer and transmitted from there to the operator's portal. As a user, you therefore have full control over the use of cookies. You can deactivate or restrict the transmission of cookies by simply changing the settings in your Internet browser. Cookies that have already been stored can be deleted at any time. This can also be done automatically. If cookies are deactivated for the operator's portal, it may no longer be possible to fully use all of the portal's functions.
We can use essential cookies required for the operation of the portal without your consent, but we will only use other cookies with your consent (e.g. certain analysis and tracking services). You can find information about this when you access the portal or under Cookie Settings in the footer navigation. Here you can also revoke your consent to non-essential cookies.
7 Google Analytics
The operator uses Google Analytics, a web analysis service provided by Google LLC ("Google"), on the basis of its legitimate interests (i.e. interest in the analysis, optimization and economic operation of the portal within the meaning of Art. 6 Para. 1 lit. f. GDPR). Google uses cookies. The information generated by the cookie about the use of the online service by users is usually transferred to a Google server in the USA and stored there.
Google will use this information on behalf of the operator to evaluate the use of the portal by users, to compile reports on the activities within this portal and to provide the operator with other services related to the use of this portal and the Internet. Pseudonymous user profiles of the users can be created from the processed data.
a) IP anonymization
The operator has activated the IP anonymization function on this portal. This means that your IP address will be shortened by Google within member states of the European Union or in other contracting states to the Agreement on the European Economic Area before being transmitted to the USA. Only in exceptional cases will the full IP address be transmitted to a Google server in the USA and shortened there. On behalf of the operator of this portal, Google will use this information to evaluate your use of the portal, to compile reports on website activity and to provide the operator with other services relating to portal activity and Internet usage. The IP address transmitted by your browser as part of Google Analytics will not be merged with other Google data.
b) Browser Plugin
You can prevent cookies from being saved by setting your browser software accordingly; however, the operator would like to point out that in this case you may not be able to use all functions of this portal to their full extent. In addition, you can prevent Google from collecting the data generated by the cookie and relating to your use of the portal (including your IP address) and from processing this data by Google by downloading and installing the browser plug-in available under the following link:
https://tools.google.com/dlpage/gaoptout?hl=de
c) Objection to data collection
You can prevent Google Analytics from collecting your data by simply selecting "Essential cookies" and deselecting "Statistical cookies" when you access the portal or under cookie settings in the footer navigation.
For more information on how Google Analytics handles user data, please see Google’s privacy policy:
https://support.google.com/analytics/answer/6004245?hl=de
d) Demographic characteristics in Google Analytics
The operator uses the “demographic characteristics” function of Google Analytics. This enables reports to be created that contain information about the age, gender and interests of site visitors. This data comes from interest-based advertising from Google as well as visitor data from third parties. This data cannot be assigned to a specific person. You can deactivate this function at any time via the ad settings in your Google account or generally prohibit the collection of your data by Google Analytics as described in the “Objection to data collection” section.
e) Contract data processing
The operator has concluded a contract for order data processing with Google and fully implements the strict requirements of the German data protection authorities when using Google Analytics.
8 Google AdWords and Conversion Measurement
The operator uses the services of Google Ireland Limited, Gordon House, Barrow Street, Dublin 4, Ireland (“Google”) on the basis of its legitimate interests (i.e. interest in the analysis, optimization and economic operation of our online offering within the meaning of Art. 6 Para. 1 lit. f. GDPR).
The operator uses the online marketing process Google "AdWords" to place ads in the Google advertising network (e.g. in search results, in videos, on websites, etc.) so that they are shown to users who are likely to be interested in the ads. This allows the operator to display ads for and within its online offering in a more targeted manner in order to only present users with ads that potentially match their interests. If, for example, a user is shown ads for products that they were interested in on other online offerings, this is referred to as "remarketing". For these purposes, when the operator's portal and other websites on which the Google advertising network is active are accessed, Google immediately executes a code from Google and so-called (re)marketing tags (invisible graphics or code, also known as "web beacons") are integrated into the website. With their help, an individual cookie, i.e. a small file, is stored on the user's device (comparable technologies can also be used instead of cookies). This file records which websites the user has visited, which content he is interested in and which offers the user has clicked on, as well as technical information on the browser and operating system, referring websites, time of visit and other information on the use of the online offer.
The operator also receives an individual "conversion cookie". The information obtained using the cookie is used by Google to create conversion statistics for the operator. However, the operator only learns the anonymous total number of users who clicked on their ad and were redirected to a page with a conversion tracking tag. However, the operator does not receive any information that can be used to personally identify users.
The user data is processed pseudonymously within the Google advertising network. This means that Google does not store and process the name or email address of the user, for example, but processes the relevant data in a cookie-related manner within pseudonymous user profiles. This means that from Google's point of view, the ads are not managed and displayed for a specifically identified person, but for the cookie owner, regardless of who this cookie owner is. This does not apply if a user has expressly allowed Google to process the data without this pseudonymization. The information collected about the users is transmitted to Google and stored on Google's servers in the USA.
For more information about Google's use of data, settings and objection options, please see Google's privacy policy (https://policies.google.com/technologies/ads) and the settings for the display of advertisements by Google (https://adssettings.google.com/authenticated).
9 Provision of the website and creation of log files
a) Description and scope of data processing
Each time the portal is accessed, the operator’s system automatically records data and information from the computer system of the accessing computer.
The following data is collected:
• Information about the browser type and version used
• The user's operating system
• The user's Internet service provider
• The user's IP address
• Date and time of access
• Websites from which the user's system accesses the portal
• Websites accessed by the user’s system via the portal
The data is also stored in the log files of the operator's system. This data is not stored together with other personal data of the user.
b) Legal basis for data processing
The legal basis for the temporary storage of data and log files is Art. 6 (1) (f) GDPR.
c) Purpose of data processing
The temporary storage of the IP address by the operator's system is necessary to enable the portal to be delivered to the user's computer. For this purpose, the user's IP address must remain stored for the duration of the session.
The data is stored in log files to ensure the functionality of the portal. The operator also uses the data to optimize the portal and to ensure the security of its information technology systems. The data is not evaluated for marketing purposes in this context.
These purposes also constitute the operator’s legitimate interest in data processing pursuant to Art. 6 (1) (f) GDPR.
d) Duration of storage
The data will be deleted as soon as it is no longer required to achieve the purpose for which it was collected. If the data is collected to provide the portal, this is the case when the respective session has ended.
If the data is stored in log files, this is the case after seven days at the latest. Storage beyond this period is possible. In this case, the users' IP addresses are deleted or altered so that it is no longer possible to assign the calling client.
e) Possibility of objection and removal
The collection of data to provide the portal and the storage of data in log files is essential for the operation of the portal. Consequently, the user has no option to object.
10 Integration of third-party services and content
It may happen that third-party content, such as videos from YouTube, RSS feeds or graphics from other websites, is integrated into this portal. This always assumes that the providers of this content (hereinafter referred to as "third-party providers") perceive your IP address. Without the IP address, they would not be able to send the content to your browser. The IP address is therefore required to display this content. The operator endeavors to only use content whose respective providers only use the IP address to deliver the content. However, the operator has no influence if the third-party providers save the IP address, e.g. for statistical purposes. If the operator is aware of this, he will inform you about it.
The legal basis is Art. 6 Para. 1 lit. f GDPR.
11 SSL encryption
The operator uses SSL encryption for security reasons and to protect the transmission of confidential content, such as the requests you send to us as the portal operator. You can recognize an encrypted connection by the fact that the address line of the browser changes from "http://" to "https://" and by the lock symbol in your browser line.
If SSL encryption is activated, the data you transmit to the operator cannot be read by third parties.
