Privacy


Thank you for your interest in our website. Protecting your privacy when processing personal data is important to us. Paulaner Bräuhaus Nanjing will handle your data responsibly. It goes without saying that we observe the statutory provisions applicable to your personal data in the Governing Jurisdiction when collecting, processing and using your personal data. Governing Jurisdiction means Germany and the jurisdiction where our office is located. However, we are naturally aware that there is still considerable uncertainty among many Internet users as to how this protection is guaranteed in individual cases. The following data protection declaration provides you with an overview of what data we collect, use and store and, if necessary, pass on to third parties, the security measures we take to protect you and what access rights you have in relation to this.

By using our website, you consent to collection and use of your information as described in this Privacy Policy, including any personally identifiable information that we may collect. If you are not comfortable with any of the practices or policies described under our Privacy Policy, we ask that you discontinue use of our website.

1. Collection, processing, and use of personal information

In principle, you can visit our website without disclosing any personal information. We only store so-called access data without any personal references such as:

  • Browser type and version,
  • Operating system used,
  • Screen resolution, colour depth,
  • Website you were referred from,
  • Websites you access,
  • Date and time you accessed our site.

This data is stored separately from any personal data that you may have supplied and is only used to improve our website and our services.

The collection of personal data and the transfer of such data to governmental institutions and authorities that are entitled to receive such information shall only be carried out within the scope of the relevant laws or if we are obligated to collect and transmit such data due to a judicial ruling. Our employees as well as the service providers engaged by us are committed by us to observe data secrecy and to comply with the provisions of the German Federal Data Protection Act.

2. Use of cookies

a) What exactly are cookies?

Cookies are small pieces of information stored on your computer, tablet or mobile phone when you visit a website, and are generally used to increase the efficiency of web pages. Some cookies (session cookies) are automatically deleted after closing the browser, others (persistent cookies or tracking codes) are archived until a specific expiry date or until you empty the cache of your browser on the device. They enable us to identify you as a repeat visitor to our website. Most web browsers automatically accept cookies. If you do not want this, you can change it by simply clicking on your browser settings.

b) What do we use cookies for?

We use cookies to:

  • Manage your confirmation of adult/age verification.
  • Manage a session (e.g. restaurant search, profile management).
  • Ensure a safe and secure internet environment.
  • Review our website performance.
  • Evaluate the nature and manner of use of our online services by our customers in order to improve the effectiveness of the services. This enables us to see, for example, when a process is taking too long and therefore the user cancels the running process for that reason. This knowledge can be used to simplify the process steps and design them in a customer-oriented way.
  • Improve user friendliness and transparency for our customers and the online experience.

We do not use our cookies to track your Internet activities outside of our website.

3. Google Analytics

This website uses Google Analytics, a web analytics service provided by Google Inc. ("Google"). Google Analytics uses cookies which are stored on your computer and which make it possible to analyse your use of the website. As a rule, the cookie-generated data regarding your use of this website will be forwarded to a Google server in the USA and stored there. If IP anonymisation is activated on this website, however, your IP address will be stored by Google in truncated form within Member States of the European Union or in other states that are contracting parties to the Agreement on the European Economic Area. Only in exceptional instances will the full IP address be transmitted to a Google server in the US and truncated there. Google will use this information on behalf of the operator of this website to evaluate your use of the website, compile reports on website activity and provide the website operator with other services related to website usage and Internet activity. The IP address transferred by your browser through the use of Google Analytics will not be merged with any other data held by Google. You can prevent the storage of these cookies by selecting the appropriate settings in your browser software. However, please be advised that by doing so you may be unable to fully use some features of this website.

4. Information about the location of the web server (Section 13 (1) TMG, German Telemedia Act)

The data that we receive through our website is processed on servers in Germany. As such, the data you provide to us or we collect through this website, will be transferred to, stored and processed in Germany. By providing your data to us through our website, you explicitly consent to our transferring, storage, and processing of your data in Germany.

5. Safety information

Where personal data is collected from our website, the transfer is encrypted using the SSL "Secure Socket Layer” data transfer procedure. Furthermore, we shall ensure that only such employees of our company will get access to such personal information about you which they need to perform their respective tasks and the use of your data will be restricted to the intended purposes for which your data was collected. They will be trained accordingly in relation to security and data protection.

6. Integration of services and content from third parties

It can happen that third party content from other websites is included on this website, such as videos from YouTube, Google Maps map data, RSS feeds or graphics. This always requires the IP address of the user to be visible to the provider of such content (hereinafter referred to as the "third-party"). Without the IP address, the content cannot be sent to the browser of the relevant user. The IP address is, therefore, needed for the presentation of such content. We endeavour to only use content from providers who use the IP address solely for the delivery of content. However, we have no control over whether the third-party provider might save the IP address, e.g. for statistical purposes. Insofar as this is known to us, we notify users of this. We are and will not be responsible for the privacy policies or practices of third-parties or the content or security of any third-party web sites.

7. Changes to our Privacy Policy

We reserve the right to change our security and data protection measures where this becomes necessary due to new technological developments. In these cases, we will also update our data protection information accordingly. Please always take note of the most up-to-date version of our Privacy Policy. Any such update will effective upon posting on this website and your continued use of our website will constitute your consent to any updated or modified Privacy Policy.
