Privacy Policy
Last updated: 15 November 2026
In short: this website sets no cookies, uses no analytics and loads nothing from other servers. We store shortened IP addresses in our server logs for 14 days, and we keep emails you send us for as long as we need them to reply.
1. Who is responsible
The controller under the EU General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR) and the UK GDPR is:
Daniel Parasole, Petrarcastr. 14, 80933 München, Germany
Email: hello@munichrooms.co.uk
Full details are in our legal notice.
2. Hosting and server logs
This website is hosted by Hetzner Online GmbH, Industriestr. 25, 91710 Gunzenhausen, Germany, on servers in Germany. Hetzner processes data on our behalf under a data processing agreement (Art. 28 GDPR).
To deliver the pages and keep the site secure, our web server records each request: a shortened IP address (the last part is removed before it is saved, so it no longer identifies your connection), date and time, the page requested, the referring page, your browser type and the response status.
Purpose: running the site, finding errors and defending against attacks. Legal basis: our legitimate interest in a secure, working website, Art. 6(1)(f) GDPR. The log entries are deleted automatically after 14 days.
3. When you email us
If you write to us, we use your email address and message only to answer you. Our mailbox is provided by IONOS SE, Elgendorfer Str. 57, 56410 Montabaur, Germany, under a data processing agreement.
Legal basis: Art. 6(1)(b) GDPR if your question is about something you want to arrange with us, otherwise our legitimate interest in answering you, Art. 6(1)(f) GDPR. We delete the conversation when your question is settled, unless tax or commercial law requires us to keep it longer.
4. Affiliate links
Munich Rooms is free to use. We earn money through affiliate links: if you click one of these links and then book, the provider pays us a commission. The commission does not change the price you pay. Every affiliate link on this site is marked “(Ad)”.
Our partners are Booking.com (Booking.com B.V., Netherlands), whose partner programme is run through the network CJ (Commission Junction), and GetYourGuide (Germany).
Our pages contain only plain links. We do not load any code, pixels or cookies from these partners. When you click a link, you leave our site. The partner or network may then record the click and set cookies on their own website, so that a booking can be credited to us. This is their responsibility, and their privacy policies apply. We only receive reports showing that a booking was made and the commission. We do not receive your name or contact details.
5. Cookies and tracking
This website does not set cookies or use similar technologies, has no analytics, no social media plugins and no third-party fonts or scripts. That is why we do not show a cookie banner.
6. Who receives your data
Only the processors named above (Hetzner, IONOS), both in Germany. We do not sell your data and do not transfer it outside the EU. We do not use automated decision-making or profiling.
7. Your rights
You have the right to:
- access the data we hold about you (Art. 15 GDPR),
- have it corrected (Art. 16) or deleted (Art. 17),
- restrict how we use it (Art. 18),
- receive it in a portable format (Art. 20).
Right to object (Art. 21 GDPR)
Where we process data based on our legitimate interest (Art. 6(1)(f) GDPR), you can object at any time on grounds relating to your particular situation. Just email hello@munichrooms.co.uk. We will then stop, unless we have compelling legitimate grounds or need the data to establish, exercise or defend legal claims.
8. Complaints
If you are unhappy with how we handle your data, please email hello@munichrooms.co.uk with the subject “Data protection complaint”. We confirm receipt within 30 days, usually much sooner, and tell you the outcome without undue delay.
You can also complain to a supervisory authority:

- in the UK: the Information Commission (formerly the Information Commissioner's Office, ICO), ico.org.uk/make-a-complaint.
9. Visitors from the UK

10. Changes
