We have activated the IP anonymisation function on this website. This means that your IP address will be truncated by Google within member states of the European Union or in other signatory states to the Agreement on the European Economic Area before being transmitted to the USA. Only in exceptional cases will the full IP address be transmitted to a Google server in the USA and truncated there. On behalf of the operator of this website, Google will use this information to analyse your use of the website, to compile reports on website activity and to provide the website operator with other services relating to website activity and internet usage. The IP address transmitted by your browser as part of Google Analytics will not be merged with other Google data.

The personal data collected in this way will be deleted by the operator within three years of the enquiry being processed.

The personal data provided by the user will only be processed and used by the operator to the extent that it is necessary for processing the enquiry and/or providing the requested service. The data processing is required in accordance with Art. 6 para. 1 lit. b GDPR for the fulfilment of the contract or for the implementation of pre-contractual measures.

In the case of region- or location-specific enquiries, offers and bookings, the personal data provided will be forwarded to the Kitzbühel Alps - Brixental Valley Tourist Board for the purpose of responding.

The operator uses so-called "embedded" social media plug-ins (interfaces to social networks) on the website. When you visit the website, the system automatically establishes a connection with the respective social network due to the integration of the plug-ins and transmits data (IP address, visit to the website, etc.).

The data transfer takes place without the intervention and outside the responsibility of the operator. The user can prevent this data transfer by logging out of the respective social networks before visiting the website. Only when "logged in" can the social network assign specific data to the user's activity profile through automatic data transmission.

The automatically transmitted data is used exclusively by the operators of the social networks and not by the operator. Further information on this, including the content of data collection by the social networks, can be found directly on the website of the relevant social network. The privacy settings can also be adjusted there.

The social networks integrated on the website are
