The following overview summarises the types of data processed and the purposes of their processing, and refers to the data subjects.

- Content data (e.g. inputs in forms)
- Usage data (e.g. pages visited, access times)
- Meta/communication data (e.g. IP addresses, device information)
3. Legal bases
The following provides an overview of the legal bases under the GDPR on which we process personal data:
- Consent (Art. 6(1)(a) GDPR) – The data subject has given consent to the processing of their personal data (e.g. cookie consent).
- Performance of a contract (Art. 6(1)(b) GDPR) – Processing is necessary for the performance of a contract (e.g. table reservation).
- Legitimate interests (Art. 6(1)(f) GDPR) – Processing is necessary for the purposes of the legitimate interests pursued by us (e.g. operation and security of the website).
4. Hosting
Our website is hosted by Vercel Inc. (440 N Barranca Ave #4133, Covina, CA 91723, USA). When you visit our website, the server automatically records technical access data (server log files), in particular:
- IP address of the requesting computer
- Date and time of the request
- Name and URL of the page accessed
- Volume of data transferred
- Browser type and version, operating system
- Referrer URL
Processing is carried out on the basis of our legitimate interest in the secure and efficient operation of our website (Art. 6(1)(f) GDPR). Vercel is certified under the EU-US Data Privacy Framework.
5. Contact
When you contact us by email or telephone, we process the information you provide where necessary to handle your enquiry. The legal basis is Art. 6(1)(b) GDPR (pre-contractual measures) or Art. 6(1)(f) GDPR (legitimate interest in processing the enquiry).
6. Table reservations
For online reservations, we process your details (name, email address, phone number, party size, date/time and optional notes) in our own reservation system in order to confirm and manage your booking. Confirmation and notification emails are sent via Postmark. We retain this data only as long as required for the reservation and any statutory retention obligations. As an alternative, the widget by DISH by METRO (METRO Digital GmbH, Metro-Straße 12, 40235 Düsseldorf) may still be used. The legal basis is Art. 6(1)(b) GDPR (pre-contractual measures).
For more information, please see the DISH Privacy Policy.
7. Cookies
Our website uses only technically necessary cookies. These are required for the operation of the website and are set on the basis of Art. 6(1)(f) GDPR. These include, for example, session cookies for the administration area.
We do not use any analytics, tracking or marketing cookies. No data is transmitted to Google Analytics, Google Ads or comparable services.
The DISH reservation widget may set its own functional cookies that are required for the reservation process.
8. Fonts
We use the fonts Lora, Playfair Display and Inter. These fonts are hosted locally on our server and are not loaded from external CDNs (such as Google Fonts). There is therefore no data transfer to third parties through the font integration.
9. Google Maps and social media links
The map on our contact page is loaded only after you give your consent. When it loads, your browser transmits technically required data, including your IP address, to Google. Alternatively, you can open the location through an external Google Maps link. Our website also contains links to profiles on Instagram, Facebook, Google and Tripadvisor. The privacy policies of the respective provider apply only when you click a link.
10. Your rights
You have the following rights with regard to your personal data:
- Right of access (Art. 15 GDPR)
- Right to rectification (Art. 16 GDPR)
- Right to erasure (Art. 17 GDPR)
- Right to restriction of processing (Art. 18 GDPR)
- Right to data portability (Art. 20 GDPR)
- Right to object (Art. 21 GDPR)
- Right to withdraw consent (Art. 7(3) GDPR)
You also have the right to lodge a complaint with a data protection supervisory authority (Art. 77 GDPR). The competent supervisory authority is the State Commissioner for Data Protection and Freedom of Information of North Rhine-Westphalia.
11. Database
For storing our menu and reservation data, we use a PostgreSQL database at Neon (Neon Inc., USA). Personal reservation data is stored only for processing and managing the reservation. Neon is certified under the EU-US Data Privacy Framework.
12. Changes to this privacy policy
We reserve the right to adapt this privacy policy so that it always complies with current legal requirements or to implement changes to our services. Your next visit will then be subject to the new privacy policy.
