Privacy policy

Thank you for your interest in our website. The protection of your privacy is very important to us. Below we inform you in detail about the handling of your data.

  1. Access data and hosting

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

This access data is evaluated solely for the purpose of ensuring trouble-free operation of the site and improving our offering. This serves according to Art. 6 para. 1 p. 1 lit. f DSGVO to protect our legitimate interests in a correct presentation of our offer, which outweigh our interests in the context of a balancing of interests. All access data is deleted no later than seven days after the end of your visit to the site.

Hosting services through a third party provider
As part of processing on our behalf, a third-party provider provides hosting and website display services for us. This serves to protect our legitimate interests in a correct presentation of our offer, which outweigh our interests in the context of a balancing of interests. All data collected during the use of this website or in forms provided for this purpose in the online store as described below will be 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

We collect personal data when you provide it to us as part of your order or when you contact us (e.g. via contact form or e-mail). Mandatory fields are marked as such, because in these cases we need the data to process the contract, or to process your contact and you can not complete the order or send the contact without their information. Which data is collected can be seen from the respective input forms. We use the data provided by you in accordance with Art. 6 para. 1 p. 1 lit. b DSGVO for the processing of contracts and your inquiries. After complete processing of the contract, your data will be restricted for further processing and deleted after expiry of any retention periods under tax and commercial law, unless you have expressly consented to further use of your data or we reserve the right to use data beyond this, which is permitted by law and about which we inform you in this declaration.

  1. Data sharing

For the fulfillment of the contract according to Art. 6 para. 1 p. 1 lit. b DSGVO, we pass on your data to the shipping company commissioned with the delivery, insofar as this is necessary for the delivery of ordered goods. Depending on which payment service provider you select in the ordering process, we will pass on the payment data collected for this purpose to the credit institution commissioned with the payment and, if applicable, to payment service providers commissioned by us or to the selected payment service. In some cases, the selected payment service providers also collect this data themselves, insofar as 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. In this respect, the privacy policy of the respective payment service provider shall apply.

  1. Email newsletter and postal advertising

Postal advertising and your right to object
In addition, we reserve the right to use your first and last name as well as your postal address for our own advertising purposes, e.g. to send you interesting offers and information about our products by mail. This serves to protect our legitimate interests in an advertising approach to our customers, which outweigh our interests in the context of a balancing of interests in accordance with Art. 6 Para. 1 p. 1 lit. f GDPR.

The advertising mailings are provided as part of processing on our behalf by a service provider, to whom we pass on your data for this purpose.
