Below, we inform you about how and why we collect your personal data when you visit our website and make contact with us by means of the online form provided, by e‑mail or by telephone. Personal data is defined as all data that can be connected to you personally, e.g. name, address, e-mail addresses, user behaviour.

  1. Name and contact details of the responsible party and the data protection officer

The responsible party pursuant to Article 4.7 of the EU General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR) is ALTHAFEN Real Estate GmbH, Giesebrechtstr.3, 10629 Berlin, Germany; Tel: +49 30 30 808 701; E-mail: datenschutz@althafen.com (see Legal Notice above)

We process your personal data in compliance with the provisions of the EU General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR), the German Federal Data Protection Act (BDSG) and all other applicable laws.

Visiting our website

1.1 In the event that you visit our website for information purposes only (i.e. if you do not register or otherwise transmit information to us), we will collect only the personal data that your browser transmits to our server. If you wish to view our website, we collect data that is technically necessary for us to display our website to you and to ensure its stability and security. This data is also stored in the log files of our system, but not together with any other personal data of the user. It includes the IP address, date and time of the request, time zone difference to Greenwich Mean Time (GMT), content of the request (specific page), access status/HTTP status code, amount of data transferred in each case, website from which the request comes, browser and operating system together with interface, language and version of the browser software.

1.2 The legal basis for the temporary storage of the data and the log files is Article 6.1(f) of the GDPR.

1.3 The temporary storage of the IP address by the system is necessary to enable delivery of the website to your browser. For this purpose, your IP address must remain stored for the duration of the session. The storage in log files is done to ensure the functionality of the website. In addition, we use the data to optimise the website and to ensure the security of our information technology systems. These purposes are also consistent with our legitimate interest in data processing according to Article 6.1(f) of the GDPR. An evaluation of the data for marketing purposes does not take place in this context.

1.4 The data will be deleted as soon as it is no longer required to achieve the purpose for which it was collected. In the case of data collected for the provision of the website, this will happen when the respective session has ended. Log files are deleted within 7 days of the website being called up.

1.5 The collection of data from visitors to the website and the storage of such data in log files is absolutely necessary for the operation of the website. Consequently, visitors to the website have no option to object.

2.1 When you visit our website, cookies are stored on your computer system. Cookies are text files that are stored in the internet browser and/or by the browser on your computer system. Whenever you call up a website, a cookie may be stored on your operating system. This cookie contains a characteristic string of characters that enables the browser to be uniquely identified when the website is called up again.

2.2 This website uses the following types of cookies, the scope and functionality of which are explained below:

Transient cookies (temporary use)

Persistent cookies (temporary use)

Third-party cookies (from third-party providers; see separate information below).

2.3 Transient cookies are automatically deleted when you close the browser. They include session cookies. These store a so-called session ID, with which various requests from your browser can be assigned to the joint session. This enables your computer to be recognised when you return to our website. The session cookies are deleted when you log out or close the browser. The legal basis for the processing of personal data by means of transient cookies is Article 6.1(f) of the GDPR. The purpose of using these cookies is to simplify the use of websites for you. Some functions of our website cannot be offered without the use of cookies. For such functions, it is necessary that the browser is recognised even after a page change. These purposes are also consistent with our legitimate interest in data processing according to Article 6.1(f) of the GDPR.

2.4 Persistent cookies are used exclusively in connection with the web analytics services we employ and are only used for as long as the purpose requires; they have a maximum life of two years. You can delete the cookies in the security settings of your browser at any time. In this case, the functions and user-friendliness of the offer may be restricted. The legal basis for the processing of personal data using persistent cookies is Article 6.1(f) of the GDPR. Analysis cookies are used for the purpose of improving the quality of our website and its content. Analysis cookies enable us to ascertain how the website is used and thus optimise our offer on an ongoing basis. These purposes are also consistent with our legitimate interest in data processing according to Article 6.1(f) of the GDPR.

2.5 Cookies that are not technically necessary for the provision of our service are only set with your consent, which you can revoke at any time. By continuing to use the website with the appropriate browser setting, you consent to the use of cookies within the scope of this data protection declaration. You can inform us of your consent through the settings of your browser, for example, by specifying that you are to be informed about the setting of cookies and that they will only be accepted if you expressly confirm this. You can also specify in this way that you allow the acceptance of cookies for certain cases or in general. You can configure your browser settings according to your wishes and can, for example, control the acceptance or rejection of third-party cookies or all cookies. However, we would like to point out that you may then not be able to use all the functions of this website. The processing of personal data using cookies for analysis purposes takes place on the legal basis of Article 6.1(a) of the GDPR and of having obtained your consent.

3.1 In addition to the purely informational use of our website, we offer various services that you can utilise if you are interested. For this purpose, you will usually have to provide further personal data which we then use to provide the respective service and to which the aforementioned data processing principles apply.

3.2 In some cases, we use external service providers to process your data. These providers, who have been carefully selected and commissioned by us, are bound by our instructions and are regularly monitored.

3.3 Furthermore, we may forward your personal data to third parties if we offer promotions, competitions, contracts or similar services in association with partners. You will receive more detailed information on this when you provide your personal data or below in the description of the offer.

3.4 If our service providers or partners are based in a country outside the European Economic Area (EEA), we will inform you of the implications of this in the description of the offer.

4.1 This website makes use of Google Analytics, a web analytics service provided by Google Ireland Limited (‘Google’). Google Analytics uses ‘cookies’, which are text files placed on your computer, to help us analyse how visitors use the site. The information generated by the cookie about your use of this website is usually transmitted to a Google server in the USA and stored there. In the event that IP anonymisation is activated on this website, however, your IP address will be truncated beforehand by Google within member states of the European Union or in other states subscribing to the Agreement on the European Economic Area. 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 website, Google will use this information for the purpose of evaluating your use of the website, compiling reports on website activity and providing other services relating to website activity and internet usage to the website operator.

4.2 The IP address transmitted by your browser in connection with Google Analytics will not be merged with other Google data.

4.3 You may refuse the use of cookies by selecting the appropriate settings on your browser. However, please note that if you do this you may not be able to benefit from the full functionality of this website. In addition, you can prevent the collection by Google of the data generated by the cookie and related to your use of the website (including your IP address) as well as the processing of this data by Google by downloading and installing the browser plug-in available at the following link: http://tools.google.com/dlpage/gaoptout?hl=de.

4.4 This website uses Google Analytics with the extension ‘_anonymizeIp()’. This means that IP addresses are processed in a shortened form, thus excluding the possibility of reference to a specific individual. If the data collected about you can be connected to you as an individual, this is immediately excluded and the personal data is deleted immediately.

4.5 We use Google Analytics to analyse and regularly improve the user experience of our website. The statistics obtained enable us to improve our offer and make it more interesting for you as a user. For the exceptional cases in which personal data is transmitted to the USA, Google has agreed to abide by the EU-US Privacy Shield (https://www.privacyshield.gov/EU-US-Framework). The legal basis for the use of Google Analytics is Article 6.1(f) of the GDPR.

5.2 When you visit our website, Google receives the information that you have accessed the relevant sub-page of our website.

6.1 We make use of the Google Fonts service on our website. We use this service in the interest of a uniform and appealing presentation of our website. When you call up a page, your browser loads the required web fonts into its browser cache in order to display texts and fonts correctly. If your browser does not support web fonts, a standard font will be used by your computer. The legal basis for the use of Google Fonts is Article 6.1(f) of the GDPR.

6.2 When you visit our website, Google receives the information that you have accessed the relevant sub-page of the site. Also transmitted is the data mentioned under Section 3.1 of this declaration.

We also take appropriate technical and organisational security measures to protect your data against accidental or intentional manipulation, partial or complete loss, destruction and unauthorised access by third parties. Our security measures are continuously improved in line with the state of the art.

1.1 We only collect your personal data as a customer, prospective customer or supplier if you provide it voluntarily by e-mail, post or telephone. In this case, we collect the information that is generated in the course of your contacting us. This includes names and transmitted contact data, date and reason for the contact. The personal data collected from you will be used only for the purpose of providing you with the requested products or services (legal basis Article 6.1(b) of the GDPR), or for other purposes for which you have given your consent (legal basis Article 6.1(a) of the GDPR) and which are described in this data protection declaration. You have the option to revoke your consent to the processing of personal data at any time.

1.2 You are not obliged to provide us with the aforementioned personal data. However, such data may be necessary for the conclusion of a contract. Without the provision of this data, it may not be possible for either party to communicate with each other or to conclude a contract or for us to perform such a contract.

1.3 Transfer of relevant data to public bodies takes place on the basis of overriding legal provisions. Transfer to external service providers or other contractors and to other external bodies takes place on the basis of the legal provisions or a contractual agreement, insofar as you have given your consent or a transfer is permissible for predominant interest. There is no intention to transfer your data to a recipient in a third country (i.e. non-member state of the EU/EEA) or any international organisation.

1.4 The data will be deleted as soon as it is no longer required to achieve the purpose for which it was collected. For the personal data provided, this is the case when the respective conversation with you has ended. The conversation is ended when the circumstances indicate that the matter in question has been conclusively dealt with. Insofar as the data provided is subject to retention obligations under tax and commercial law, it will be stored for the duration of those retention obligations (ten years) and then deleted, unless you have consented to storage beyond this or unless the further processing of the data is necessary for the assertion, exercise or defence of legal claims. The legal basis for processing personal data for the purpose of fulfilling legal archiving and retention obligations is Article 6.1(c) of the GDPR.

2.1 We only collect your personal data as a job applicant if you provide it to us voluntarily by e-mail, post or telephone. This applies to applications in response to job advertisements as well as to unsolicited applications. In this case, we collect the information provided in the application. This includes in particular name, date of birth, contact details, interests and qualifications as well as school and professional background. The personal data collected from you will be used only for the purpose of processing the application (legal basis Articles 6.1(a), 6.1(b) and 6.1(f) of the GDPR and Section 26 of the BDSG).

2.2 You are under no obligation to provide the aforementioned personal data. The data provided may be required for a future conclusion of a contract after the application process has been completed. Without the provision of the data, it may not be possible to communicate, carry out the application procedure or conclude a contract.

2.3 Transmission of relevant data in the respective individual case takes place on the basis of the legal provisions or of a contractual agreement. Data is shared with employees of the personnel department, employees of the management and the respective head of department. Your personal data will not be transferred to third parties. There is no intention to transfer your data to a recipient in a third country (non-member state of the EU/EEA) or any international organisation.

2.4 The data will be deleted as soon as it is no longer required to achieve the purpose for which it was collected. Therefore, once the application process has been carried out, we will retain your data for six months after you have been notified of our decision not to proceed in the event of a rejection. If you have consented to longer storage, the storage period is two years. After that, we will either delete your data or ask for your consent again. You have the option of revoking your consent to the processing of personal data at any time.

If you have given your consent to the processing of your data, you may revoke this at any time. Any such revocation will affect the permissibility of your personal data being processed after you have informed us of your decision.

To the extent that we base the processing of your personal data on the balance of interests, you may object to the processing. This is the case if the processing is not necessary, in particular, for the performance of a contract with you, which is shown by us in each case in the following description of the functions. When exercising such an objection, we ask you to explain the reasons why we should not process your personal data as we have done. In the event of your justified objection, we will review the situation and either discontinue or adapt the data processing or show you our compelling legitimate grounds on the basis of which we will continue the processing.

You can, of course, object to the processing of your personal data for advertising and data analysis purposes at any time. To inform us of your objection to receipt of advertising, please contact us at ALTHAFEN Real Estate GmbH, Giesebrechtstr.3, 10629 Berlin, +49 (0) 30 30 808 701, datenschutz@althafen.com
