II.      General Information on Data Processing / Legal Basis

With this data protection declaration, we would like to inform you about the type, scope and purpose of the data we process. At the same time, this data protection declaration contains information about the rights to which you are entitled as a data subject.

 

We collect and use your personal data only to the extent necessary to provide a functional website and our content and services.

You can use our website without providing any personal information. If you wish to use special functions of our website (such as our contact form), the processing of personal data will be necessary.

 

Insofar as the collection and use of your personal data is necessary, this processing is always based on a legal basis or we obtain your consent.

Your personal data will be deleted as soon as the purpose of storage ceases to apply.

In addition, storage may take place if this has been provided for by the European or national legislator in Union regulations, laws or other provisions to which we are subject, or if you have given us the corresponding consent (e.g. to store your application in our database).

The data will also be deleted if a storage period prescribed by the aforementioned standards expires, unless there is a need for further storage of the data for the conclusion or performance of a contract.

 

Insofar as we obtain consent from you as the data subject for processing operations involving personal data, Article 6 (1) sentence 1 lit. a DS-GVO serves as the legal basis for the processing of personal data.

When processing personal data that is necessary for the performance of a contract to which you as the data subject are a party, Art. 6 (1) p. 1 lit. b DS-GVO serves as the legal basis. This also applies to processing operations that are necessary for the implementation of pre-contractual measures.

Insofar as processing of personal data is necessary for compliance with a legal obligation to which we are subject, Art. 6 (1) p. 1 lit. c DS-GVO serves as the legal basis.

In the event that vital interests of you as the data subject or another natural person make processing of personal data necessary, Art. 6 (1) p. 1 lit. d DS-GVO serves as the legal basis.

If the processing is necessary to protect a legitimate interest of our company or a third party and the interests, fundamental rights and freedoms of the data subject do not override the first-mentioned interest, Art. 6 (1) p. 1 lit. f DS-GVO serves as the legal basis for the processing.

III.    Provision oft he website and creation of log files

For security reasons and to protect the transmission of confidential content, such as orders or requests that you send to us, this site uses SSL or TLS encryption. You can recognize an encrypted connection by the fact that the address line of the browser changes from "http://" to "https://" and by the lock symbol in your browser line.

If SSL or TLS encryption is activated, the data you transmit to us cannot be read by third parties.

 

Each time our website is accessed, our system automatically collects data and information from the computer system of the accessing computer.

This may include (1) information about the browser type and version used, (2) the operating system used, (3) the Internet service provider, (4) the IP address, (5) the date and time of access, (6) websites from which your system accesses our website, (7) websites that are accessed by your system via our website.

 

The data is stored in the log files of our system. This data is not stored together with other personal data. Conclusions about the data subject can therefore not be drawn.

 

The temporary storage of the IP address by the system is necessary to enable delivery of the website to your computer. For this purpose, your IP address must remain stored for the duration of the session.

The storage in log files is done to ensure the functionality of the website. In addition, we use the data to optimize the website and to ensure the security of our information technology systems. An evaluation of this data for marketing purposes does not take place.

These purposes are our legitimate interest in data processing according to Art. 6 para. 1 p. 1 lit. f DS-GVO, which is also the legal basis for the temporary storage of data and log files.

 

The data is deleted as soon as it is no longer required to achieve the purpose for which it was collected. In the case of the collection of data for the provision of the website, this is the case when the respective session has ended. If the data is stored beyond this, the IP address is deleted or alienated so that it is no longer possible to assign the calling client.

 

Since the collection of data for the provision of the website and the storage of data in log files is absolutely necessary for the operation of the website, there is no possibility of objection on your part.

IV.   Cookies use

Our website uses cookies. Cookies are text files that are stored in the Internet browser or by the Internet browser on the user's computer system. When a user accesses a website, a cookie may be stored on the user's operating system. This cookie contains a characteristic string of characters that enables the browser to be uniquely identified when the website is called up again.

We use cookies to make our website more user-friendly. Log-in information is stored and transmitted in the cookies in order to recognize users of our website. Likewise, information about items placed in the shopping cart is stored and transmitted in the cookies. This allows the online store to remember which items have already been placed in the shopping cart.

In addition, we use cookies on our website that enable an analysis of your surfing behavior. In this way, for example, entered search terms, the frequency of page views and the use of website functions are transmitted.

The data collected in this way is pseudonymized by technical precautions. Therefore, it is no longer possible to assign the data to the calling user. The data is not stored together with other personal data.

 

The purpose of using technically necessary cookies is to simplify the use of our website for you. Some functions of our website cannot be offered without the use of cookies. For these, it is necessary that the browser is recognized even after a page change. The user data collected through technically necessary cookies are not used to create user profiles.

We use the analysis cookies to improve the quality of our website and its content. We learn how the website is used and can thus continuously optimize our offer.

 

In these purposes also lies our legitimate interest in the processing of personal data according to Art. 6 para. 1 p. 1 lit. f DS-GVO, which is also the legal basis for the processing of personal data using cookies.

 

Cookies are stored on your computer and transmitted from it to our site. Therefore, you also have full control over the use of cookies. By changing the settings in your Internet browser, you can disable or restrict the transmission of cookies. Cookies that have already been stored can be deleted at any time. This can also be done automatically. If cookies are deactivated for our website, it may no longer be possible to use all functions of the website in full.

 

Information on plug-ins used by third-party providers that set so-called third-party cookies can be found further down in this data protection declaration under point VIII. In this context, there is also an indication of how the setting or storage of cookies can be prevented or restricted.

V.              Registration

On our website, we offer you the opportunity to register by providing personal data. The data is entered in an input mask and transmitted to us and stored. The data that is collected during the registration process results from the respective input mask that is used for the collection.

 

During the registration process, your consent to the processing of this data is obtained. Your registration is required for the fulfillment of a contract with you or for the implementation of pre-contractual measures. The personal data you enter will only be processed by us internally and for the purpose of fulfilling the contract.

 

For the execution of the contract, personal data may be passed on to third parties, such as parcel carriers or payment service providers; this is done only to the extent necessary for the delivery of the goods or the processing of payments.

 

When registering on our website, the IP address assigned by your Internet service provider as well as the date and time of registration are also stored. The purpose of this storage is the prevention of misuse of our services as well as the possible promotion of the clarification of criminal offences. As a matter of principle, this data is not passed on to third parties unless there is a legal obligation to pass it on or the passing on serves the purpose of criminal prosecution.

 

The legal basis for the processing of data collected during registration is Art. 6 Para. 1 lit. a DS-GVO if you have given your consent.

Insofar as the registration serves the fulfillment of a contract to which you are a party or the implementation of pre-contractual measures, the additional legal basis for the processing of the data is Art. 6 (1) lit. b DS-GVO.

Insofar as we prevent or investigate misuse of our systems, the legal basis is our legitimate interest pursuant to Art. 6 (1) p. 1 lit. f DS-GVO.

 

The data will be deleted as soon as they are no longer required to achieve the purpose for which they were collected, i.e. the creation or operation of a customer account.

Even after termination of the customer account, there may be a need to store your personal data in order to comply with contractual or legal obligations.

 

You have the option to cancel the registration at any time by sending us a corresponding message by mail or post. The account created for you internally will then be deleted by us immediately. If you have received login data for the account from us, you can change, supplement or delete the data stored about you in your account at any time.

However, premature deletion of the data is only possible insofar as contractual or legal obligations (e.g. retention obligations on our part) do not prevent deletion.

VI.       E-Mail-Contact

On our site, it is possible to contact us via the e-mail address provided. In this case, your personal data transmitted by e-mail will be stored.

 

The data will not be passed on to third parties. The data transmitted to us by you on a voluntary basis will be used exclusively for processing the conversation.

 

The legal basis for the processing of data transmitted in the course of sending an e-mail is Art. 6 (1) lit. f DS-GVO. If your e-mail contact aims at the conclusion of a contract, the additional legal basis for the processing is Art. 6 (1) lit. b DS-GVO.

 

The processing of the personal data from the input mask serves us solely to process the contact. This is also the necessary legitimate interest in processing the data.

 

The data will be deleted as soon as they are no longer required to achieve the purpose for which they were collected. For the personal data sent with the e-mail, this is the case when the respective conversation with the user has ended. The conversation is ended when it is clear from the circumstances that the matter in question has been conclusively clarified.

 

You have the option of objecting to the storage of your personal data transmitted by e-mail at any time by informing us of your wish by telephone, e-mail or post. In such a case, the conversation cannot be continued.

All personal data stored in the course of contacting us will be deleted in this case.

 

VII. Comment Function (Reviews)

We offer you the opportunity to comment on a product you have purchased (a review). This may give other interested parties a better insight into the product.

With this function, the data entered in the input mask is transmitted to us and stored by us. This is your name and e-mail address as well as the comment.

At the time of sending the comment, your IP address and the date and time are also transmitted and stored.

 

The processing of personal data from the input mask also serves to prevent misuse of the comment form and to ensure the security of our IT system. This is our legitimate interest according to Art. 6 para. 1 p. 1 lit. f DS-GVO, which is also the legal basis.

 

The data is deleted as soon as it is no longer required to achieve the purpose for which it was collected. This is the case when the comment is no longer published.

 

You can object to the storage of your personal data at any time. In such a case, the comment can no longer be published. The objection can be made by mail or by post. All personal data stored in the course of the comment will be deleted in this case.
