Social Media Link and Share Buttons
Our website features image links from social networks such as Facebook and Twitter. These “Share” buttons are embedded in disabled form, meaning that there is no direct contact between our server and the servers of the respective social networks. Only when you click the “Share” button, will a new window open in which you must log on to the selected social network. The selected page can then be recommended or shared. At no time is any data transmitted from our website to the respective operator of the social network without you initiating and accepting such transmission.

Our website features hyperlinks to websites belonging to (and operated by) other providers. After clicking these links, you will be redirected from our website to the third-party website.

Google Maps
Our website uses Google Maps on some sub-pages to display maps and to create travel directions and instructions for you to arrive at our resort. Google Maps is a map service from Google, Inc. The use of Google Maps may result in information about the use of our website, including your IP address and your starting address you have indicated within the scope of the driving direction/route planner function, being transmitted to Google in the United States of America. If you open a page that contains Google Maps, your browser establishes a direct connection with Google’s server. The map content is delivered by Google directly to your browser and integrated by your browser into our website. Therefore, we have no influence on the amount of data collected by Google in this way. If you do not want Google to collect your information, you can deactivate JavaScript in your setting options; however, if you do this, you will not be able to use the map function.
For more information about the purpose and the scope of data collected as well as further processing and use of data by Google, Inc. please refer to Google’s Privacy Notice.
Use of YouTube Videos
We use embedded YouTube videos in the extended data protection mode. YouTube is a service from Google Inc. YouTube makes this extended data protection mode available and thus ensures that YouTube saves no cookies with personal data on your computer. When calling up the website and to embed the video, the IP address is transferred. This address cannot be correlated, provided you have not logged into YouTube or another Google service prior to calling up the site or if you are permanently logged in to Google. As soon as you start playing an embedded video by clicking Start, the extended data protection mode means that YouTube only saves cookies on your computer that contain no personally identifiable data. These cookies can be prevented with the relevant browser settings and extensions.
