When do we collect other personal information?
When you enquire to rent our house, we ask for your name and address. You make your enquiry by email, so we also need to save your email address for further correspondence.

How do we protect your personal data?
Our website and your personal data are protected by the use of Secure Socket Layer (SSL) technology for data sent over the Internet. Intrusion attempts are monitored on the webserver.

Cookies
Cookies are small files created by websites in your browser (provided you do not block them). They make it possible for websites to recognise your browser when you revisit the website and to remember certain information about your visit. For example, we use cookies to manage your web session. If you first send a response to our website, that response will be submitted to the web administrator for approval. We do this to keep spammers out of the website. Once your response has been approved, it will be displayed on the website. These cookies ensure that your next response does not have to be approved first by the web administrator. We also use cookies to collect statistics about visitors to our website in general. This allows us to improve our website and services in the future. The cookies used to collect usage statistics are sometimes kept for up to two years, or until you delete the cookies in your browser.
We use cookies for the following purposes:
- To maintain the web sessions
- To register user preferences
- To analyze aggregate statistics about user interactions on our website. For this purpose, we use the services of Google Analytics that compile these statistics automatically. This allows us to see which pages are visited and from which platform (Windows, Android, iOS, as well as whether traffic comes from fixed or mobile devices), from which country and in which town the service provider is located. We can also see the traffic flows within the website. This allows us to make improvements and remove any unused pages. We cannot see who the visitors are.
At any time you can set your computer to warn you about the use of cookies, or you can turn off the use of cookies altogether. You can do this via your browser settings. Since all browsers have different settings for this purpose, we refer you to the documentation of your browser for this purpose.
If you disable cookies, some features of our website may become inactive. Each time you react, you will be put back in the queue for approval.
Sharing information with third parties
Your personal information will not be sold to or shared with third parties. We may disclose personal information only when required by law, or to protect our rights and safety or the rights and safety of others.
The information used to collect website usage statistics is made anonymous so that it cannot lead to you as a user. We have blocked the use of information from you as a user for third party marketing or advertising purposes.
Sharing content from this website
If you, as a visitor to this website, choose to use the buttons with which you share the content or parts thereof via a social medium (such as Facebook or Twitter and others), the protection of your privacy for that use in accordance with the GDPR legislation does not fall under our responsibility.
