- What Personal Data We Process and How
a) Technical data, system and security logs:
In connection with the provision of the chatbot, we collect certain technically necessary personal data whose transmission is inherent in the use of internet and communication protocols. This may include IP addresses, the date and time of requests, time zone, browser, language and version of the browser software, the operating system of the end device and the referrer URL, i.e. the website from which access was made. If the chatbot is provided via our WhatsApp channel, we may also collect the user’s telephone number and displayed profile name, which we retain for the duration of use and for maintenance purposes.
This information is not collected with the intention of assigning it to individual users. However, by its nature, and through processing and combination with data held by third parties, it could make it possible to identify individual users.
b) Dialogue content and other information
Using the chatbot, regardless of the chat channel, also requires us to process the messages you send and receive. This may include information or files relating to you that you provide or upload, as well as information concerning your use of the chatbot.
c) Contact details
To respond to enquiries or handle complaints relating to the chatbot, we may also process contact details provided by users for this purpose, such as first name, surname, email address and telephone number.
No information concerning your health, religious or political beliefs, or any other special categories of personal data is required for the provision or use of the chatbot. Please therefore do not provide such information. If you nevertheless choose to share such information via the message window, you expressly consent to its processing within the meaning of Article 9(2)(a) of the GDPR.
Personal data is processed using IT-supported tools, including cookies. Further information on the cookies used for this purpose can be found in our Privacy Policy and Cookie Policy.
- Legal Basis and Purposes for Processing Personal Data
In connection with the provision and use of the chatbot, we collect and use your personal data solely for the following purposes and on the following legal bases:
-
g) Use of dialogue content and technical data by SaaS service providers
To operate the chatbot, we rely on the professional and technical support of a service provider that processes technical data, aggregated usage statistics and dialogue content for the provision of the chatbot in accordance with a contractual agreement with us (Article 6(1)(b) GDPR).The service provider may also use this data under its own responsibility to train the algorithms and models underlying the chatbot, improve response quality and enhance system stability (Article 6(1)(f) GDPR). For this purpose, the service provider uses pseudonymised or, wherever possible, fully anonymised excerpts from dialogues and usage statistics. It is therefore not readily possible for the service provider to identify you personally.
You may object to the transfer of your data to the service provider at any time, unless compelling legitimate grounds override your objection.
-
Recipients of Data – How and to Whom We Disclose Personal Data
Without prejudice to the recipients listed in our general Privacy Policy, we may forward certain excerpts from dialogues and contact information to affiliated companies within the tourism region for the purposes stated above. Each affiliated company receiving the data processes it under its own responsibility as a controller within the meaning of Article 4(7) GDPR and solely for the purpose of responding to your enquiry and ensuring service quality.If you use the chatbot through our WhatsApp channel, your telephone number may additionally be stored and processed by WhatsApp Ireland Ltd. under its own responsibility for internal service purposes. We have no influence over this processing. Further details can be found in the privacy policy provided by WhatsApp: https://www.whatsapp.com/legal/privacy-policy-eea.
- Transfer of Personal Data – Where Personal Data Is Processed
The personal data processed in connection with the operation of the chatbot is managed and stored within the EU and/or EEA on servers operated by Amolaris Garden Lodges & Guesthouse and/or third-party companies commissioned by us. However, individual functional components, such as cloud hosting, monitoring or support tools, may require personal data to be transferred outside the EU or EEA. In such cases, we ensure that all appropriate measures and safeguards required by the GDPR and applicable legislation are in place before any transfer takes place.
-
Retention Period for Personal Data
We process and store users’ personal data in accordance with our general Privacy Policy and, in all cases, only for as long as is strictly necessary to fulfil the purposes for which the data was collected.In particular:
Plain-text dialogues: are retained for the period required to process user enquiries and provide information and are generally deleted or anonymised after 72 hours. If the chatbot is used through our WhatsApp channel, message content and the telephone number stored with WhatsApp may be retained for up to one year from the date on which the respective chat was created. Data may be processed for a longer period where circumstances justify an extension of the retention period. In such cases, the personal data will be deleted or anonymised no later than 30 days after the reason for extended retention ceases to apply.System and security logs: are retained for as long as required to ensure stable operation and network security, but generally for no longer than 90 days.
Once the above retention periods have expired, the data will be deleted from our live and backup systems or anonymised for statistical purposes.
- Data Security – How We Protect Personal Data
We take the protection of our users’ personal data very seriously. We therefore continually adapt our organisational, technical and administrative measures to protect personal data against unauthorised access, alteration, disclosure or destruction. -
