Cookies and Other Technologies

As is common on many company websites, Hotel Felben uses so-called "cookies" and other technologies to gain better insights into which areas of our website are particularly popular, how our visitors navigate the website, and how much time they spend in different sections. Additionally, Hotel Felben uses technologies to ensure that our online advertising is effective and that guests are indeed aware of our products and services. Hotel Felben employs cookies and other technologies to analyze traffic on our website, allowing us to further improve its design and functionality, and to assess the effectiveness of our communication with customers. Furthermore, Hotel Felben uses technologies to better tailor the website to your needs and provide you with greater convenience during each visit.


As with most websites, we automatically collect certain information and store it in log files. This information includes Internet Protocol addresses (IP addresses), browser type, Internet Service Provider (ISP), referral/exit pages, operating system, date/time stamps, and clickstream data.

In some of our Felbenpost communications, Hotel Felben uses a so-called "click-through URL" that is linked to content on our website. When you click such a URL, you pass through our web server before reaching the actual destination webpage. Hotel Felben tracks these "click-through" data to determine interest in specific topics and to measure the effectiveness of our communication with guests. If you wish to avoid having this data collected, simply do not click on text or graphic links in emails.

Additionally, Hotel Felben uses "pixel tags" (tiny image files) that provide information about which areas of our website customers have visited or measure how effective customer searches on our website have been.

With the help of pixel tags, Hotel Felben can also send email messages in a format readable by customers. Furthermore, we can check whether emails have been opened to ensure that Hotel Felben only sends messages that are of genuine interest to our customers.
