 FURTHER GDPR RELATED INFORMATION
 
1. How Aquaweb Limited receives personal data
We do not actively seek out or target personal data in carrying out our web mapping activities. However, we do look at and use hyperlinks and web page titles and those hyperlinks and web page titles could incidentally contain personal data. In processing personal data in this way, we rely on “legitimate interests” as our lawful basis for that data processing. In this context, our legitimate interest is our commercial business interests in the provision and development of our services. We consider that our processing of personal data in this manner has a minimal privacy impact and our processing is very unlikely to cause unjustified harm to data subjects.
 
2. Aquaweb Limited’s processing of sensitive or special category data
We do not seek to collect or process any special categories of personal data (which includes details about an individual’s race or ethnicity, religious or philosophical beliefs, sex life, sexual orientation, political opinions, trade union membership or information about health including genetic and biometric data). Nor do we collect any information about criminal convictions or offences.
 
3. Your rights
You have the following rights with respect to the personally identifiable information concerning you:
 
General rights
 
3.1 You have the right to information, correction, deletion, limitation of processing, opposition to processing, and data portability. If processing is based on your consent, you have the right to revoke it with effect for the future.
 
3.2 Rights in the processing of data based on legitimate interests
 
According to Article 21 (1) of the GDPR, you have the right to file an objection at any time for reasons arising out of your particular situation against the processing of personally identifiable information relating to you, pursuant to Article 6 (1) of the GDPR (data processing in the public interest) or Article 6 par. 1 f GDPR (data processing for the protection of a legitimate interest); this also applies to a profiling based on this provision. In the event of your objection, we will no longer process your personally identifiable information unless we can establish compelling and legitimate grounds for processing that outweigh your interests, rights and freedoms, or if the processing aids the enforcing,
exercising or defending of legal claims.
 
3.3 Rights in direct advertising
If we process your personally identifiable information for the purpose of direct advertising, you have the right according to Article 21 par. 2 GDPR to object at any time to the processing of personally identifiable information relating to you for the purpose of such advertising; this also applies to profiling, where appropriate, insofar as it is associated with such direct advertising.
In the event of your objection to processing for the purpose of direct advertising, we will no longer process your personally identifiable information for these purposes.
 
3.4 Right to complain to a supervisory authority
You also have the right to complain to a relevant data protection supervisory authority about our processing of your personally identifiable information.
 
 
4.The collection of personally identifiable information when visiting our website
If you are only using the website for informational purposes, i.e., if you do not enroll or otherwise provide us with information, we will only collect the personally identifiable information that your browser transmits to our server. If you wish to view our website, we collect the following data that is technically necessary for us to display our website and ensure its stability and security. Only in the case of suspected misuse in connection with bookings would we use this link information to facilitate the identification of the person responsible. The legal basis for this is Article 6 (1) (f) GDPR:
–IP address, date and time of the inquiry, time difference to Greenwich Mean Time (GMT), content of the request (concrete page), access status/HTTP status code, amount of data transferred in each case, website that receives the request, browser, operating system and its interface, language, and browser software version.
 
5. Contact by e-mail or contact form
When you contact us by e-mail or through a contact form, we will store the data you provide (your e-mail address, possibly your name and telephone number) so we can answer your questions. Insofar as we use our contact form to request entries that are not required for contacting you, we have always marked these as optional. This information serves to substantiate your inquiry and improve the handling of your request. Your message may be linked to various actions taken by you on the divetarget.com website. Information collected will be solely used to provide you with support relating to your booking and better understand your feedback. A statement of this information is expressly provided on a voluntary basis and with your consent, art. 6 par. 1a GDPR. As far as this concerns information about communication channels (such as your e-mail address or telephone number), you also agree that we may also, where appropriate, contact you via this communication channel to answer your request. You may of course revoke this consent for the future at any time.
We delete the data that arises in this context after saving is no longer required, or limit processing if there are statutory retention requirements.
 
6.Newsletter
 
6.1 General information
With your consent under Art. 6 par. 1 a GDPR, you can opt in to our newsletter, which will inform you about our current deals. 
To sign up for our newsletter, we use the “double opt-in” method. This means that after you have signed up, we will send you an e-mail to the e-mail address specified, in which we ask you to confirm that you wish to receive the newsletter. If you do not confirm your sign-up within [24 hours], your information will be locked and automatically deleted after one month.
In addition, we save the IP addresses you used and the times of sign-up and confirmation. The purpose of the procedure is to verify your sign-up and, if necessary, to inform you about possible misuse of your personal data.
The only requirement for sending the newsletter is your email address. The specification of additional, separately marked data is voluntary and will be used to address you personally. After your confirmation, we will save your e-mail address for the purpose of sending you the newsletter. The legal basis is art. 6 par. 1 a GDPR.
You may revoke your consent to the sending of the newsletter at any time and opt out of the newsletter. You can declare the revocation by clicking the link provided in each newsletter e-mail or by contacting the aforementioned data protection officer.
 
6.2 Newsletter Tracking
Please note that we evaluate your user behavior when sending the newsletter. For this evaluation, the emails sent include “web beacons” or tracking pixels, which are stored on our website. For the evaluations, we link the data mentioned and the web beacons with your e-mail address and an individual ID.
With the data obtained in this way, we generate a user profile to tailor the newsletter to your individual interests. In doing so, we record when you read our newsletters, which links you click on in them and deduce your personal interests. We link this data with actions you have taken on our website.
You can object to this tracking at any time by clicking on the separate link provided in each e-mail. The information will be saved as long as you have opted in to the newsletter. After you log out, we save the data purely statistically and anonymously.
Also, such tracking is not possible if you've deactivated image viewing by default in your e-mail application. In this case, the newsletter will not be displayed in full and you won’t be able to use all the features. If you display images manually, the above tracking will take place.
 
7. Use of social plug-ins
This website uses the provider’s social plug-ins
- Facebook, Instagram (operator: Facebook Inc., 1601 S. California Ave, Palo Alto, CA 94304, USA)

We have taken technical measures to ensure the protection of your privacy, which guarantee that your data cannot be collected by the vendors of the respective plug-ins without your consent. These will initially be deactivated when you visit a site connected to the plug-ins. The plug-ins will not be activated until you click on the respective symbol, and by doing so, you give your consent to have your data transmitted to the respective vendor. The legal basis for plug-in use is article 6, par. 1 a and f of the GDPR.

This occurs even if you are not a member of the respective vendor’s social network. If you are a member of the vendor’s social network and you are logged into the website during your visit, your data and information about your visit to the website can be linked with your profile on the social network. We do not have any influence over the exact extent to which your data is collected by the respective vendor.

9. Advertising
We use cookies for marketing purposes to approach our users with advertising that is more tailored to their interests. We also use cookies to reduce the likelihood of ads playing and to measure the effectiveness of our advertising measures. This information may also be shared with third parties, such as ad networks. The legal basis for this is article 6, par. 1 a and f of the GDPR. The goals intended in data processing serve the legitimate interest of direct marketing. You are entitled to file an objection to the processing of your data for the purposes of such advertising at any time. We provide the following opt-out options for the respective services for this purpose. Alternatively, you can prevent cookies from being set in your browser and App settings.
We use Google AdSense, a service for integrating ads. Google AdSense uses cookies and web beacons (invisible graphics). These web beacons allow the analysis of information such as visitor traffic on the pages of this website. The information generated by cookies and web beacons via the use of this website (including user IP addresses) and the distribution of ad formats is transferred to a Google server in the USA and stored there. Google can pass this information on to their affiliates. However, Google will not conflate your IP address with your other stored data. Users can prevent cookies from being installed through the relevant setting in their browser software and App settings; however, please note that if this is done, not all functions of the website may be able to be used to their full extent. By using this website, the user agrees to the processing of their data collected by Google in the manner and for the purpose described above.
10. Conversion Tracking and Google AdWords
To draw attention to our services, we place Google AdWords display ads and, within this context, use Google conversion tracking for the purposes of personalized online ads based on interests and location. The option to anonymize IP addresses is controlled through Google Tag Manager, via an internal setting that is not visible in the source of this page. This internal setting is set so that the anonymization required by privacy laws covers IP addresses.
Ads are displayed based on search requests on websites in the Google ad network. We have the ability to combine our ads with certain search terms. With the use of cookies, we are able to place ads based on previous user visits to our website.
When a user clicks on an ad, Google places a cookie on the user’s device. For more information on the cookie technology used, please see Google’s statements on website statistics and their data privacy policy.
With the use of this technology, Google, and we as their customer, receive the information that a user has clicked on an ad and was redirected to our websites. The information acquired this way is solely used for statistical analysis related to ad optimization. We do not receive any information that would allow us to personally identify a visitor. The statistics provided to us by Google include the total number of users who have clicked on one of our ads and, where applicable, whether they were redirected to a page on our website that has a conversation tag. These statistics allow us to track which search terms most often lead to our ads receiving clicks, and which ads lead to the user contacting us via the contact form. 
If you do not want this, you can prevent the storage of the cookies required for this technology by, for example, using the settings in your browser or your App. Should you do so, your visit will not be incorporated into user statistics.
You also have the option to choose the types of Google ads or deactivate interest-based ads on Google through ad settings. Alternatively, you can deactivate third-party use of cookies by using the Network Advertising Initiative’s opt-out tool.
However, we and Google will still receive statistical information about how many users visit this site and when. If you do not want to be included in these statistics either, you can prevent this by using additional programs for your browser (such as the Ghostery add-on).
 
11. Google DoubleClick
We use DoubleClick, a service of Google Inc. DoubleClick uses cookies to place user-based web ads. The cookies detect which ads have already appeared in your browser and whether you visited a website via an ad placed. In doing so, the cookies do not collect any personally identifiable information, nor are they able to link to any.
If you do not want to receive any user-based advertising, you can disable the placement of ads by using Google’s ad settings.
For more information about how Google cookies are used, please refer to Google’s privacy statement.
 
13.3 Google Dynamic Remarketing
We use the dynamic remarketing function of Google AdWords on our website. This technology allows us to place automatically generated ads oriented towards target groups after you visit our website. Ads are oriented towards products and services that you clicked on during your last visit to our website.
Google uses cookies to generate interest-based ads. Cookies are small text files that are stored in your browser when you visit our website. In this process, Google typically stores information such as your web request, IP address, browser type, browser language, and the date and time of your request. This information only serves the purpose of mapping the web browser to a specific device. It cannot be used to identify an individual.
If you do not want to receive user-based advertising from Google, you can disable the placement of ads by using Google’s ad settings.
For more information about how Google cookies are used, please refer to Google’s privacy statement.
