Real Estate Treptow-Köpenick
An abandoned Ferris wheel, the skeleton of a white-water ride and a decommissioned roundabout: surrounded by trees and tall grass, the remains of the Spree Park, which was shut down in 2001, appear oddly bizarre. The fairground rides in Plänterwald are rotting away like oversized art objects. Hard to believe that once children were screaming here with joy, that clowns made their jokes and that generations of Berliners have spent happy days here. But the hustle and bustle is over – and an era came to an end that never really fit into the introspective district of Treptow-Köpenick anyway. Because far away from the bustle of the city, about 53 percent of Berlin’s district with the largest area consist of forest and water. No other district in Berlin can offer something similar.
Seven lakes, 165 kilometres of waterways, 140 bridges: those who like living near the water have good chances in Treptow-Köpenick. 13 percent of the area are covered by water and among other lakes is the Müggelsee the largest lake inside the city limits. But the district is number one in other fields too: with almost 115 metres, the Müggelberg is the highest mountain in Berlin, the Baroque Castle in Köpenick is Berlin’s only water castle, the Köpenicker Forst is the largest forest in Berlin and the Treptowers are the highest office buildings in Berlin. Furthermore, the Späthsche Baumschule is the oldest tree farm in Germany, the ferry across the Müggelspree is the only German ferry line operating with a row boat and the observatory features the world’s largest lens telescope.
People in this district of superlatives mainly live in single-family homes, town houses and smaller multi-family homes. These kinds of housing complexes can be found in Schmöckwitz, Wendenschloß, Rahnsdorf, Bohnsdorf or Baumschulenweg, for instance. In premium locations such as Friedrichshagen and Müggelheim, you may also find some grand villas, some even dating back to imperial times. Life is particularly pretty in the garden city of Falkenberg in Bohnsdorf. The facades of the “Tuschkastensiedlung” (paintbox village) shine in yellow, green, blue and many other colours. The village consists of individual and town houses, was developed around 1913 and was given the status of Unesco World Cultural Heritage in 2008.
But traces of history can also be found in other places of the district. In front of the Köpenick town hall, the statue of Friedrich Wilhelm Voigt, better known as the “Hauptmann von Köpenick”, commemorates a moment in history that was often repeated in films, plays and books. Masqueraded as an army captain and supported by soldiers, he confiscated the municipal treasury and arrested the mayor in 1906. The pretty old town of Köpenick, with its renovated old buildings, the water castle, the numerous cafés, restaurants and small stores is a beautiful tourist attraction. It is also a residential alternative for those who rather want to live a small-town than a secluded life and still want to avoid the bustle of the big city.
But even if life is more tranquil in Treptow-Köpenick, people are not conservative or opposed to progress at all. Au contraire! The new airport of the capital will bring new challenges in the future, but also many jobs. Already now, the district is planning about 10,000 new apartments until 2020. There is enough space available in Berlin’s most sparsely populated district, particularly since plenty of industrial waste land can be found here in attractive locations. And progress is what they bank on in another place too: the Science, Media and Technology Park Adlershof has evolved into an important economic factor. More than 1,000 companies, six institutes of the Humboldt University, several research institutes and numerous film and TV studios already work on the premises of the former Johannisthal airfield. Up to 20,000 jobs are to be generated here in medium term. It would not be a surprise if Treptow-Köpenick would have to announce more news of successes in the future. What else should we expect from a district that moves so skilfully between tradition and modernity and takes the top spots in so many fields?

Information on the transfer of data to third-party countries that are not secure under data protection law and to US companies that are not DPF-certified
We use tools and services provided by companies based in third-party countries that are not deemed safe under data protection law and from companies in the USA who are not certified under the EU-US Data Privacy Framework (DPF). If these tools are active, your personal data may be transferred to these third countries and processed there. We would like to point out that no level of data protection comparable to that in the EU can be guaranteed in these countries.
In the case of the USA, the EU Commission has issued an adequacy decision, the EU-US Data Privacy Framework (DPF), which, however, is of limited scope.
Data may be transferred to the USA if the recipient is certified under the “EU-US Data Privacy Framework” (DPF). Data transfers to recipients in the USA who are not certified must be based on EU standard contractual clauses agreed with the recipient or other suitable safeguards. Information on transfers to third countries, including data recipients, can be found in this Privacy Policy.
Recipients of personal data
In the scope of our business activities, we cooperate with various external parties. In some cases, this also requires the transfer of personal data to these external parties. We only disclose personal data to external parties if this is required as part of the fulfillment of a contract, if we are legally obligated to do so (e.g., disclosure of data to tax authorities), if we have a legitimate interest in the disclosure pursuant to Art. 6 (1)(f) GDPR, or if another legal basis permits the disclosure of this data. When using processors, we only disclose personal data of our customers on the basis of a valid contract on data processing. In the case of joint processing, a joint processing agreement is concluded.
Revocation of your consent to data processing
Many data processing operations are only possible with your express consent. You can revoke your consent at any time. The legality of the data processing carried out until the revocation remains unaffected by the revocation.
Right to object to data collection in special cases and to direct marketing (Article 21 of the GDPR)
IF THE DATA PROCESSING IS CARRIED OUT ON THE BASIS OF ARTICLE 6 (1) (E) OR (F) OF THE GDPR, YOU HAVE THE RIGHT TO OBJECT TO THE PROCESSING OF YOUR PERSONAL DATA AT ANY TIME FOR REASONS ARISING FROM YOUR PARTICULAR SITUATION; THIS ALSO APPLIES TO PROFILING BASED ON THESE PROVISIONS. THE RESPECTIVE LEGAL GROUNDS FOR PROCESSING CAN BE FOUND IN THIS PRIVACY POLICY. IF YOU OBJECT, WE WILL NO LONGER PROCESS YOUR PERSONAL DATA UNLESS WE CAN DEMONSTRATE COMPELLING LEGITIMATE GROUNDS FOR PROCESSING WHICH OVERRIDE YOUR INTERESTS, RIGHTS AND FREEDOMS, OR THE PROCESSING IS FOR THE PURPOSE OF ASSERTING, EXERCISING OR DEFENDING LEGAL CLAIMS (OBJECTION UNDER ARTICLE 21 (1) OF THE GDPR).
IF YOUR PERSONAL DATA ARE PROCESSED FOR THE PURPOSE OF DIRECT MARKETING, YOU HAVE THE RIGHT TO OBJECT AT ANY TIME TO THE PROCESSING OF YOUR PERSONAL DATA FOR THE PURPOSE OF SUCH MARKETING; THIS ALSO APPLIES TO PROFILING INSOFAR AS IT IS CONNECTED WITH SUCH DIRECT MARKETING. IF YOU OBJECT, YOUR PERSONAL DATA WILL SUBSEQUENTLY NO LONGER BE USED FOR THE PURPOSE OF DIRECT MARKETING (OBJECTION PURSUANT TO ARTICLE 21 (2) OF THE GDPR).
Right of appeal to the competent supervisory authority

Information, erasure and correction
Within the framework of the applicable legal provisions, you have the right at any time to free information about your stored personal data, their origin and recipient and the purpose of data processing and, if necessary, a right to correction or erasure of these data.

Right to restriction of processing
You have the right to request the restriction of the processing of your personal data. For this purpose, you can contact us at any time. The right to restriction of processing exists in the following cases:

Order processing
We have concluded a contract on order processing for the use of the above-mentioned service. This is a contract required by data protection law, which ensures that the personal data of our website visitors is processed according to our instructions and in compliance with the GDPR.
Referral Tracking
We use so-called referral tracking from our own development to measure reach. Ideally, the origin as well as the UTM source, campaign and medium of the website visitor are recorded in Java script.
If the website visitor gives his consent via the consent tool, these data are stored in a cookie and assigned to the sender when a contact form is used. In addition, they are stored in the referral dashboard.
Processing is carried out exclusively on the basis of Article 6 (1) (a) of the GDPR and Section 25 (1) of the Telecommunications and Telemedia Data Protection Act, insofar as the consent includes the storage of cookies or access to information in the user’s terminal device (e.g. device fingerprinting) as defined by the Telecommunications and Telemedia Data Protection Act. The consent can be revoked at any time.
Server-side tracking/proxy tracking
To ensure a lawful use of tracking services such as analytics and marketing services, we use the tracking proxy solution of Tracking Garden GmbH, Ritterfelddamm 225e, 14089 Berlin. With the help of the tracking proxy solution, we can avoid direct access by third-party providers (Google Analytics, Google Ireland Ltd., Gordon House, Barrow Street, Dublin 4, Ireland) to users’ end devices and ensure complete control over a single data parameter when communicating with websites by imposing access restrictions on third-party providers and setting conditions for the transfer of data to third-party providers.
For these purposes, so-called cookies and browser fingerprinting procedures are used, which are stored on your end device by the tracking proxy for recognition purposes and can process information from your end device. For this purpose, your terminal device is assigned a randomly generated identification number (cookie ID/device ID) by the tracking proxy.
With the help of the tracking proxy, we process the information generated about the use of our website by your end device as well as access data for the purpose of statistical analysis and reach measurement – e.g. call-up of a specific web page, number of unique visitors, entry and exit pages, dwell time, click, wipe and scroll behavior, actuation of buttons, bounce rate and similar interactions made by users on our website (events), e.g. whether a newsletter subscription was made or a product was added to the shopping cart or purchased. Access data includes, in particular, browser and device information, cookie ID of the tracking proxy and date and time of the server request. The processing of your data by the tracking proxy takes place exclusively on servers in Germany.
Your IP address is not stored or passed on to third-party providers, but only general location information such as the region and city of the location of the end device is collected, which is previously derived from the IP address. Due to the tracking proxy solution, further user data is transmitted to third-party providers in exclusively pseudonymous form for the purpose of analyzing and measuring the reach of usage behavior on our website. To ensure effective pseudonymization, the tracking proxy creates artificially generated data parameters for the browser identifier (user agent), for the third-party provider’s cookie IDs, for order numbers if applicable, and for other browser and device information that would enable re-identification.
The storage period of the tracking proxy cookie for the re-identification of users’ end devices is a maximum of 24 months.
The legal basis for data processing is Article 6 (1) (f) of the GDPR. The website operator has a legitimate interest in an analysis as well as the measurement of the reach of its website, through which it can optimize and improve digital offers and correct errors. Insofar as a corresponding consent has been requested, the processing is carried out exclusively on the basis of Article 6 (1) (a) of the GDPR and Section 25 (1) of the Telecommunications and Telemedia Data Protection Act, insofar as the consent includes the storage of cookies or access to information in the user’s terminal device (e.g. device fingerprinting) as defined by the Telecommunications and Telemedia Data Protection Act. The storage period of the tracking proxy cookie for the recognition of users’ end devices is a maximum of 24 months.

The use of Google Tag Manager is based on Article 6 (1) (f) of the GDPR. The website operator has a legitimate interest in a fast and uncomplicated integration and management of various tools on his website. Insofar as a corresponding consent has been requested, the processing is carried out exclusively on the basis of Article 6 (1) (a) of the GDPR and Section 25 (1) of the Telecommunications and Telemedia Data Protection Act, insofar as the consent includes the storage of cookies or access to information in the user’s terminal device (e.g. device fingerprinting) as defined by the Telecommunications and Telemedia Data Protection Act. The consent can be revoked at any time.

Google Ads
The website operator uses Google Ads. Google Ads is an online advertising program of Google Ireland Limited (“Google”), Gordon House, Barrow Street, Dublin 4, Ireland.
Google Ads enables us to display advertisements in the Google search engine or on third-party websites when the user enters certain search terms on Google (keyword targeting). Furthermore, targeted advertisements can be played on the basis of user data available at Google (e.g. location data and interests) (target group targeting). As the website operator, we can evaluate these data quantitatively by analyzing, for example, which search terms led to the display of our advertisements and how many ads resulted in corresponding clicks.
The use of this service is based on your consent according to Article 6 (1) (a) of the GDPR and Section 25 (1) of the Telecommunications and Telemedia Data Protection Act. The consent can be revoked at any time.
Data transfer to the USA is based on the standard contractual clauses of the EU Commission. Details can be found here: https://policies.google.com/privacy/frameworks und https://privacy.google.com/businesses/controllerterms/mccs/.

Newsletter data
If you would like to receive the newsletter offered on the website, we require an email address from you as well as information that allows us to verify that you are the owner of the email address provided and that you agree to receive the newsletter. Further data is not collected or only on a voluntary basis. For the handling of the newsletter we use newsletter service providers, which are described below.
Brevo
This website uses Brevo to send newsletters. The provider is Brevo GmbH, Köpenicker Straße 126, 10179 Berlin, Germany.
Brevo is a service with which, among other things, the dispatch of newsletters can be organized and analyzed. The data you enter for the purpose of receiving the newsletter is stored on Brevo’s servers in Germany.
Data analysis by Brevo
With the help of Brevo , we are able to analyze the effectiveness of our newsletter campaigns. For example, we can see whether a newsletter message was opened and which links, if any, were clicked. In this way, we can determine, among other things, which links were clicked on particularly often.
In addition, we can see whether certain previously defined actions were performed after opening/clicking (conversion rate). We can thus recognize, for example, whether you have made a purchase after clicking on the newsletter.
Brevo also allows us to subdivide (“cluster”) newsletter recipients based on various categories. In doing so, the newsletter recipients can be subdivided according to age, gender or place of residence, for example. In this way, the newsletters can be better adapted to the respective target groups.
If you do not want Brevo to analyze your newsletter, you must unsubscribe. For this purpose, we provide a corresponding link in every newsletter message.
For detailed information on the Brevo functions, please click on the following link: https://de.sendinblue.com/newsletter-software/.
Legal basis
The data processing is based on your consent (Article 6 (1) (a) of the GDPR). You can revoke this consent at any time. The legality of the data processing operations already carried out remains unaffected by the revocation.
Storage period
The data you provide for the purpose of receiving the newsletter will be stored by us or the newsletter service provider until you unsubscribe from the newsletter and will be deleted from the newsletter distribution list after you unsubscribe from the newsletter. Data that have been stored by us for other purposes remain unaffected by this.
After you have unsubscribed from the newsletter distribution list, your email address will be stored by us or the newsletter service provider in a blacklist, if necessary, to prevent future mailings. The data from the blacklist will only be used for this purpose and will not be merged with other data. This serves both your interest and our interest in complying with legal requirements when sending newsletters (legitimate interest within the meaning of Article 6 (1) (f) of the GDPR). The storage in the blacklist is not limited in time. You can object to the storage if your interests outweigh our legitimate interest.

The basis for the processing of data is Art. 6(1)(b) GDPR, which permits the processing of data for the fulfilment of a contract or for pre-contractual actions.
How we handle applicant data
We offer you the opportunity to apply for vacant positions within our company (e.g. by email, post or via online application form). Below, we provide information about the scope, purpose and use of your personal data we collect during the course of the application process. We assure you that the collection and processing of your data is carried out in accordance with applicable data protection law and all other statutory provisions and that your data will be treated in the strictest of confidence.
Scope and purpose of data collection
If you send us an application, we will process your associated personal data (e.g. contact and communication data, application documents, notes taken during interviews, etc.) insofar as this is necessary to decide on the establishment of an employment relationship. The legal basis for this is Section 26 of the German Federal Data Protection Act (BDSG) under German law (initiation of an employment relationship), Article 6 (1) (b) of the GDPR (general contract initiation) and – if you have given your consent – Article 6 (1) (a) of the GDPR. The consent can be revoked at any time. Your personal data will only be passed on within our company to persons who are involved in processing your application.
If the application is successful, the data submitted by you will be stored in our data processing systems on the basis of Section 26 of the German Federal Data Protection Act (BDSG) and Article 6 (1) (b) of the GDPR for the purpose of implementing the employment relationship.
Data retention period

Subsequently, the data will be deleted and the physical application documents destroyed. This storage serves in particular as evidence in the event of a legal dispute. If it is evident that the data will be required after the 6-month period has expired (e.g. due to an impending or pending legal dispute), it will not be deleted until the purpose for continued storage no longer applies.
A longer storage can also take place if you have given a corresponding consent (Article 6 (1) (a) of the GDPR) or if legal storage obligations prevent the deletion.
Our social media channels
This privacy policy applies to the following social media presence
Data processing through social networks
We maintain publicly accessible profiles on social networks. The social networks we use are detailed below.
Social networks such as Facebook, Twitter, etc. can generally analyze your user behavior extensively when you visit their website or a website with integrated social media content (e.g. like buttons or advertising banners). Visiting our social media presences triggers numerous processing operations relevant to data protection. In detail:
If you are logged into your social media account and visit our social media presence, the operator of the social media portal can assign this visit to your user account. However, your personal data may also be collected under certain circumstances if you are not logged in or do not have an account with the respective social media portal. In this case, this data collection takes place, for example, via cookies that are stored on your end device or by recording your IP address.
With the help of the data collected in this way, the operators of the social media portals can create user profiles in which your preferences and interests are stored. In this way, interest-based advertising can be displayed to you inside and outside the respective social media presence. If you have an account with the respective social network, interest-based advertising can be displayed on all devices on which you are or were logged in.
Please also note that we cannot track all processing operations on the social media portals. Depending on the provider, further processing operations may therefore be carried out by the operators of the social media portals. For details, please refer to the terms of use and data protection provisions of the respective social media portals.
Legal basis
Our social media presence is intended to ensure the most comprehensive presence possible on the internet. This is a legitimate interest within the meaning of Article 6 (1) (f) of the GDPR. The analysis processes initiated by the social networks may be based on different legal bases, which are to be specified by the operators of the social networks (e.g. consent within the meaning of Article 6 (1) (a) of the GDPR).
Responsible person and assertion of rights
If you visit one of our social media sites (e.g. Facebook), we are jointly responsible with the operator of the social media platform for the data processing operations triggered during this visit. In principle, you can assert your rights (information, correction, erasure, restriction of processing, data portability and complaint) both vis-à-vis us and vis-à-vis the operator of the respective social media portal (e.g. vis-à-vis Facebook).
Please note that despite the joint responsibility with the social media portal operators, we do not have full influence on the data processing operations of the social media portals. Our options are largely determined by the corporate policy of the respective provider.
Storage period
The data collected directly by us via the social media presence will be erased from our systems as soon as you request us to erase it, revoke your consent to store it, or the purpose for storing the data no longer applies. Stored cookies remain on your terminal device until you delete them. Mandatory legal provisions – in particular retention periods – remain unaffected.
We have no influence on the storage period of your data, which are stored by the operators of the social networks for their own purposes. For details, please contact the operators of the social networks directly (e.g. in their privacy policy, see below).

(6) Whenever the broker markets a property as “commission-free” for the buyer, this means that the broker has been mandated by the seller and does not conclude a brokerage contract in the sense of Section 652 of the German Civil Code (BGB) with the client.

Notwithstanding the above, the broker’s General Terms of Contract and of Use shall also apply in full to broker’s legal relationship with the client.
