Cookie- and privacy policy
1. Purpose of the policy
The purpose of this privacy policy is to make you aware of how Halberg Hotels A/S (“we”, “us”) process personal data. With this policy, we wish to inform you about what data is collected and processed and how long it is stored. The privacy policy concerns the processing of personal data by Halberg Hotels A/S, which includes Hotel Svendborg, Hotel Fredericia, Hotel Garni and Hotel Ærø (collectively referred to as “Halberg Hotels A/S” in the following), when you enter into agreements, interact or otherwise exchange personal data with us.
2. Description of the processes
Halberg Hotels A/S process your data for one or more specific purposes and in accordance with the data protection rules. We process your data if you are a customer/guest, business partner, supplier, visit our website or our social media, contact us via our contact forms, receive our newsletter or apply for a job with us. The data will generally come directly from you, and we will only process your data for as long as it is necessary for the purpose for which it was collected.
Below you can read more about the types of processing we carry out.
2.1.1. Customer relations
Halberg Hotels A/S process personal data in connection with visits or stays at our hotels about private customers and about the contact person for our business customers in order to enter into and fulfil an agreement GDPR art. 6(1)(b). This information includes contact information such as name, job title, company name, email, address, telephone number and information about your purchase or stay as well as payment and/or bank details.
In certain cases, we also process health data, including information about disability, allergies, special food preferences and other health or medical information. We process this data based on your explicit verbal consent, cf. GDPR art. 9(2)(a)
We delete the data on an ongoing basis, but no later than 5 years after the end of the customer relationship.
In some cases, we may supplement our information about you with the information you provide us with on an ongoing basis, e.g., information about requests in connection with previous events or conferences, so that we can make our marketing as relevant as possible for you. This is done based on our legitimate interest, cf. GDPR art. 6(1)(f), as we consider that our interest in offering you the best service outweighs your interest in not processing such general information you provide us with. Of course, you always have the right to access such data and have it deleted. Read more about your rights in section 4 below.

According to the Danish TV Surveillance Act, we are authorised to install TV surveillance as we are a hotel and restaurant business.

Personal data is deleted 7 days after the recordings have been made, cf. section 4c(4) of the Danish TV Surveillance Act.

We process your data in order to enter into an employment contract with you (GDPR art. 6(1)(b)) and in cases where we consider that our interests in processing your personal data outweigh your interests in not processing it, e.g. data collected from social media published by you or data obtained through the completion of a personality and aptitude test (GDPR art. 6(1)(f)).
We share your personal data with the employees involved in the recruitment process and disclose your personal data to the companies conducting the personality and aptitude test and any recruitment company.
If we wish to store your data beyond the recruitment period, we will obtain your consent.
2.1.7. Suppliers and partners
When we enter into agreements with suppliers and business partners, we process information about their contact persons. This includes information such as name, job title, telephone number, email and, if necessary, payment or bank details.
The data is processed either because it is necessary for the fulfilment of the agreement with the supplier or business partner in question GDPR Art. 6(1)(b) or because we have a legitimate interest in processing the contact details of the person in question as part of the agreement GDPR Art. 6(1)(f).
We keep relevant contact information throughout our co-operation.

In some cases, we use data processors outside the EU/EEA, whereby personal data may be transferred to third countries, e.g. in connection with our use of cloud solutions.
