Visiting the website

The website runs on a server of netcup GmbH in Germany. For every request the server stores the IP address, date and time, the address requested and the browser in log files, so that the site runs securely and without errors (Art. 6(1)(f) GDPR). The logs are deleted after 14 days at the latest.

We use no third-party analytics or advertising services and set no cookies when you only browse. Fonts are served from our own server.

Usage statistics

To know which rooms are in demand and how visitors find us, we count anonymously on our own server which pages are viewed, which rooms are saved and requested and which search filters are used. For this we store the address viewed, the site you came from (only its domain), campaign details in the link (utm parameters), the language and the type of device.

To count visits, we derive an identifier from your IP address and browser together with a random value that is created anew every day and deleted afterwards. We do not store the IP address itself. The identifier is only valid for one day; we cannot recognise you with it or link it to an account. No cookies are set and nothing is stored in your browser.

The legal basis is our legitimate interest in improving our service (Art. 6(1)(f) GDPR). The data stays with us and is deleted after 14 months. If your browser sends "Do Not Track" or "Global Privacy Control", we do not count you.

Stored in your browser

Your browser keeps the rooms you viewed last in its local storage, so we can show them again at the end of a room page. The list stays on your device and is not sent to us. You can delete it at any time in your browser's settings.

Map

The map on the search and room pages loads map images from OpenFreeMap (openfreemap.org). Your IP address is sent to this service (Art. 6(1)(f) GDPR).

Videos

Some rooms have a video. We embed these videos through YouTube in privacy-enhanced mode (Google Ireland Limited) or through Vimeo (Vimeo.com, Inc., USA) with "Do Not Track" set. As soon as the player is shown, the provider receives your IP address and technical details about your browser. Vimeo also processes data in the USA, based on the European Commission's standard contractual clauses.

Account and saved rooms

When you save a room, send a request or log in, you create an account with us. For this we store your email address, your name, an encrypted password and the rooms you save (Art. 6(1)(b) GDPR). Logging in goes through our own login service (auth.bulldogsliving.com), which sets cookies needed to keep you logged in during the session.

Accounts of applicants who do not rent a room are deleted six months after their last login. We delete your account earlier at any time if you ask us to.

Log in with Google

If you choose "Sign in with Google", Google Ireland Limited sends us your name and email address, and Google learns that you log in with us. This is optional; you can also create an account with your email address and a password.

Requests and rentals

Data you give us for a request or a rental contract is used only to handle the request and the contract (Art. 6(1)(b) GDPR). Legal retention duties, for example for invoices, remain unaffected.

Your rights

You have the right to access, rectification, erasure, restriction of processing, data portability and to object. Write to us at office@bulldogrealestate.at.

If you think we process your data unlawfully, you can complain to the Austrian Data Protection Authority (Barichgasse 40–42, 1030 Vienna, www.dsb.gv.at).
