We are pleased about your interest in our online shop. Protecting your privacy is very important to us. Below we will inform you in detail about how your data is handled.

  1. Access data and hosting

You can visit our websites without providing any personal information. Every time a website is accessed, the web server automatically saves a so-called server log file, which contains, for example, the name of the requested file, your IP address, date and time of retrieval, amount of data transferred and the requesting provider (access data) and documents the retrieval.

This access data is evaluated exclusively for the purpose of ensuring trouble-free operation of the site and improving our offering. In accordance with Article 6 Paragraph 1 Sentence 1 Letter f of the GDPR, this serves to protect our legitimate interests, which predominate in the context of a balancing of interests, in a correct presentation of our offer. All access data will be deleted no later than thirty days after the end of your visit to the site.

Hosting services provided by a third party

As part of processing on our behalf, a third-party provider provides us with the services of hosting and displaying the website. All data collected as part of the use of this website or in the forms provided in the online shop as described below are processed on its servers. Processing on other servers only takes place within the framework explained here.

This service provider is located within a country of the European Union or the European Economic Area.

  1. Data collection and use for contract processing, contact and when opening a customer account

We collect personal data if you voluntarily provide it to us as part of your order or when you contact us (e.g. via contact form or email). Mandatory fields are marked as such because in these cases we absolutely need the data to process the contract or to process your contact and you cannot send the order or contact us without providing them. Which data is collected can be seen from the respective input forms. We use the data you provide in accordance with Article 6 Paragraph 1 Sentence 1 Letter b GDPR to process the contract and process your inquiries.

If you have given your consent in accordance with Article 6 Paragraph 1 Sentence 1 Letter a GDPR by deciding to open a customer account, we will use your data for the purpose of opening a customer account.

After the contract has been fully processed or your customer account has been deleted, your data will be restricted for further processing and deleted after the tax and commercial law retention periods have expired, unless you have expressly consented to further use of your data or we reserve the right to use your data beyond this is permitted by law and about which we inform you in this statement. Deleting your customer account is possible at any time and can be done either by sending a message to the contact option described below or using a function provided for this purpose in the customer account.

  1. Data sharing

In order to fulfill the contract in accordance with Article 6 Paragraph 1 Sentence 1 Letter b GDPR, we pass on your data to the shipping company commissioned with the delivery, to the extent that this is necessary for the delivery of ordered goods. Depending on which payment service provider you select in the ordering process, we pass on the payment data collected for this purpose to the credit institution responsible for the payment and, if applicable, the payment service provider commissioned by us, or to the selected payment service, in order to process payments. In some cases, the selected payment service providers also collect this data themselves if you create an account there. In this case, you must log in to the payment service provider with your access data during the ordering process. The data protection declaration of the respective payment service provider applies.

We also use an external merchandise management system to process orders and contracts. The data transfer or processing that takes place in this respect is based on order processing.
