Privacy Policy

General information on data processing by Holiday Home AG

Within the range of the offer of Holiday Home and the use of the websites operated by Holiday Home, in particular those of the website www.holidayhome.net (including all websites operated by Holiday Home) , no personal data is collected unless you submit it to us yourself by contacting us by email or using the contact form or by providing data yourself when registering a user account or ordering a newsletter.

In these cases, the personal data you provide (e.g. email address, name) will only be used for the purpose offered by Holiday Home and requested by you (e.g. contact, newsletter, contract conclusion).

Holiday Home will not pass on the personal data you have provided to third parties, will not transfer it outside of Switzerland and will only process it in accordance with the applicable data protection regulations in Switzerland, unless you expressly consent to such transfer. You expressly consent to the data transfer for the purpose of concluding a contract. The personal data you have provided will only be used for advertising or marketing purposes with your express consent.

Storage of customer data

Customer data is stored as long as the customer has a user account or has ordered a newsletter. The customer data is deleted when the customer deletes the user account or unsubscribes from the newsletter. Inactive user accounts, that means user accounts for which 3 years have passed since the last log-in of the customer, will be deleted with the customer data after this period has expired.

Data security

We protect your personal data with suitable technical and organizational security measures and save them exclusively on secure servers. The website is secured against loss, destruction and manipulation as well as against access, modification or distribution by unauthorized persons using different measures. Particularly sensitive data (e.g. access data to the profile account) are encrypted when transmitted over the Internet (SSL).

However, Holiday Home does not guarantee the security of your password. It is your responsibility to provide a secure password for your user account, to keep it safe and to change it at regular intervals.

User account

If you set up a user account with Holiday Home, the data you enter will be saved and processed by Holiday Home. Holiday Home only uses this data to provide you with functions on the website and to improve your user experience on the website and the offer as a whole. For example, you have the option of saving and tracking offers. For this purpose, data about your work processes are saved. The search terms, offers and technical information about your device and browser are saved in detail. The data is only processed for the functions described and for statistical purposes. It will not be passed on to third parties. If you have given your express consent, we will inform you about new offers that may be of interest to you. You can delete your user account at any time. All data will be deleted. This does not include data that we have to keep due to legal regulations and data that belong to bookings.

Facebook Connect

Holiday Home also offers you the option of logging in with your existing Facebook account (Facebook Connect). If you make use of this option, Facebook will only provide us with information that you have expressly approved for us. You cannot access the other content in your profile using Facebook Connect. With the transmitted data, either a new user account is set up at Holiday Home or it is linked to the existing user account. You can remove the link from your Facebook account at any time. When using Facebook Connect, a direct connection is established to the Facebook servers, 1601 South California Avenue, Palo Alto, CA 94304, USA. Facebook learns that you've used your Holiday Home credentials.

Newsletter

Holiday Home offers a regular newsletter by email in order to inform about its own offers or offers from third parties. For these purposes, Holiday Home needs a valid email address and your consent to the sending of the newsletter. Only the data requested and entered in the course of registration will be collected. If you no longer wish to receive the newsletter, you can unsubscribe at any time using the link given at the end of the respective newsletter. In addition, you can object to the use of your email address by sending an email to the address given below. Your email address will not be passed on to third parties.

Newsletter – Measurement of success

The newsletters contain a so-called "pixel", i.e. a pixel-sized file that is retrieved from our server when the newsletter is opened or, if we use a shipping service provider, from its server. As part of this retrieval, technical information, such as information about the browser and your system, as well as your IP address and the time of retrieval, are initially collected.

This information is used for the technical improvement of the services based on the technical data or the target groups and their reading behavior based on their retrieval locations (which can be determined with the help of the IP address) or the access times. The statistical surveys also include determining whether the newsletters are opened, when they are opened and which links are clicked. For technical reasons, this information can be assigned to the individual newsletter recipients. However, it is neither our aim nor, if used, that of the shipping service provider to observe individual users. The evaluations serve us much more to recognize the reading habits of our users and to adapt our content to them or to send different content according to the interests of our users.

Third party offers

If you leave the direct offer from Holiday Home by clicking on an offer from a holiday home provider and you are being forwarded to the website of a third party or the booking mask of a third party, Holiday Home has no influence on the compliance with the data protection regulations by this third party provider. However, Holiday Home will not provide any personal data that you enter, query, collect, store or obtain knowledge of on the website of the third party, e.g. as part of a booking request.

Furthermore, content from third parties, such as videos from YouTube, maps from Google Maps, RSS feeds or graphics, etc. from other websites can be integrated into the online offer of Holiday Home. This always presupposes that the providers of this content (hereinafter referred to as “third-party providers”) are aware of the IP address of the user. Without the IP address, it is not possible to send the content to the browser of the respective user and display or represent it accordingly. Holiday Home tries to only use content whose respective providers only use the IP address to deliver the content. However, Holiday Home has no influence on whether the third-party provider stores the IP address, e.g. for statistical purposes. If we should know, we will inform users about it.

Cookies

When you use the Holiday Home offer, so-called cookies are stored on your computer. These are small text files that are temporarily stored in the main memory ("session cookie") or permanently stored on the hard drive ("permanent cookie"). They enable recognition as a user of the website, the browser used, the access device (e.g. PC, tablet, smartphone) etc. and serve to make the website user-friendly for the user, e.g. by adapting the display to the access device or based on a previous one, visiting the website, according to the previous use, to design user-related or to display user-related content.
