Thank you for your interest in our online shop. The protection of your privacy is very important to us. Below we inform you in detail about how we handle your data.

Your data is processed on the basis of the DSGVO and in accordance with § 96 Para. 3 TKG.

1. Access data and hosting

You can visit our websites without providing any personal information. Each time you access a website, 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 access, the amount of data transferred and the requesting provider (access data) and documents the access. This access data is evaluated solely for the purpose of ensuring trouble-free operation of the site and improving our services. This serves to protect our legitimate interests in the correct presentation of our offer, which are outweighed by our interests in accordance with Art. 6 Para. 1 S. 1 lit. f DSGVO. All access data is deleted at the latest seven days after your visit to the site has ended.

Hosting

The services for hosting and displaying the website are partly provided by our service providers as part of processing on our behalf. Unless otherwise stated in this privacy policy, all access data and all data collected in forms provided for this purpose on this website are processed on their servers. If you have any questions about our service providers and the basis of our cooperation with them, please use the contact option described in this privacy policy.

2. Data processing for contract processing and for contacting us

2.1 Data processing for the execution of the contract

For the purpose of contract processing (incl. enquiries about and processing of any existing warranty and performance claims as well as any statutory update obligations) in accordance with Art. 6 Para. 1 S. 1 lit. b DSGVO, we collect personal data if you voluntarily provide us with this data as part of your order. Mandatory fields are marked as such, as in these cases we absolutely need the data to process the contract and we cannot send the order without their specification. Which data is collected can be seen from the respective input forms.

Further information on the processing of your data, in particular on the transfer to our service providers for the purpose of order, payment and dispatch processing, can be found in the following sections of this data protection declaration. After complete processing of the contract, your data will be restricted for further processing and deleted after expiry of the retention periods under tax and commercial law in accordance with Art. 6 para. 1 p. 1 lit. c DSGVO, unless you have expressly consented to further use of your data pursuant to Art. 6 para. 1 p. 1 lit. a DSGVO or we reserve the right to use data beyond this, which is permitted by law and about which we inform you in this declaration.

We use merchandise management systems of external service providers for order and contract processing. Our service providers work for us within the framework of order processing.

2.2 Customer account

Insofar as you have given your consent to this in accordance with Art. 6 Para. 1 Sentence 1 lit. a DSGVO by deciding to open a customer account, we will use your data for the purpose of opening a customer account as well as for storing your data for further future orders on our website. Deletion of your customer account is possible at any time and can be done either by sending a message to the contact option described in this privacy policy or via a function provided for this purpose in the customer account. After deletion of your customer account, your data will be deleted unless you have expressly consented to further use of your data in accordance with Art. 6 para. 1 p. 1 lit. a DSGVO or we reserve the right to use data beyond this, which is permitted by law and about which we inform you in this declaration.

Mandatory fields are marked as such because in these cases we absolutely need the data to process your contact. Which data is collected can be seen from the respective input forms. After your enquiry has been processed in full, your data will be deleted unless you have expressly consented to further use of your data in accordance with Art. 6 Para. 1 Sentence 1 lit. a DSGVO or we reserve the right to use data in a way that goes beyond this, which is permitted by law and about which we inform you in this declaration.

3. Data processing for the purpose of shipment processing

For the purpose of fulfilling the contract in accordance with Art. 6 para. 1 p. 1 lit. b DSGVO, we pass on your data to the shipping service provider commissioned with the delivery, insofar as this is necessary for the delivery of ordered goods.

Data transfer to shipping service providers for the purpose of shipping notification

4. Data processing for payment processing

When processing payments in our online shop, we work together with these partners: technical service providers, credit institutions, payment service providers.

4.1 Data processing for transaction processing

Depending on the selected payment method, we pass on the data necessary for processing the payment transaction to our technical service providers, who work for us within the framework of order processing, or to the commissioned credit institutions or to the selected payment service provider, insofar as this is necessary for processing the payment. This serves the fulfilment of the contract according to Art. 6 para. 1 p. 1 lit. b DSGVO. In some cases, the payment service providers collect the data required for processing the payment themselves, e.g. on their own website or via a technical integration in the ordering process. In this respect, the privacy policy of the respective payment service provider applies.
If you have any questions about our payment processing partners and the basis of our cooperation with them, please use the contact option described in this privacy policy.

4.2 Data processing for the purpose of fraud prevention and optimisation of our payment processes

Where applicable, we provide our service providers with further data, which they use together with the data necessary for the processing of the payment as our processors for the purpose of fraud prevention and optimisation of our payment processes (e.g. invoicing, processing of contested payments, accounting support). Pursuant to Art. 6 (1) sentence 1 lit. f DSGVO, this serves to protect our legitimate interests in our protection against fraud or in efficient payment management, which outweigh our interests in the context of a balancing of interests.

4.3 Involvement of debt collection service providers

We pass on your data to a commissioned collection service provider (Dr. Harald Schneider, Auf der Papagei 36, 53721 Siegburg, Germany) if our payment claim has not been settled despite a previous reminder. In this case, the debt will be collected directly by the collection service provider. This serves the fulfilment of the contract according to Art. 6 Para. 1 S. 1 lit. b DSGVO as well as the protection of our legitimate interests in an effective assertion or enforcement of our payment claim according to Art. 6 Para. 1 S. 1 lit. f DSGVO.

For the creation and execution of tests, we also use the Google Analytics Google Optimize extension function.

For the purpose of optimised marketing of our website, we use the so-called User ID function. With the help of this function, we can assign a unique, permanent ID to your interaction data for one or more sessions on our online sites and thus analyse your user behaviour across devices and sessions.

For web analysis, the Google Analytics Google Signals extension function enables so-called "cross-device tracking". Insofar as your internet-enabled devices are linked to your Google account and you have activated the "personalised advertising" setting in your Google account, Google can generate reports on your usage behaviour (in particular cross-device user figures), even if you change your terminal device.

For advertising purposes in Google search results as well as on third-party websites, the so-called Google Remarketing Cookie is set when you visit our website, which automatically enables interest-based advertising by collecting and processing data (IP address, time of visit, device and browser information as well as information on your use of our website) and by means of a pseudonymous CookieID and on the basis of the pages you visit. Any further data processing will only take place if you have activated the "personalised advertising" setting in your Google account. In this case, if you are logged in to Google while visiting our website, Google will use your data together with Google Analytics data to create and define target group lists for cross-device remarketing.

For website analysis and event tracking, we measure your subsequent usage behaviour via Google Ads Conversion Tracking if you have reached our website via an advertisement from Google Ads.

we market space for third-party advertisements through our advertising partner AWIN AG, Eichhornstraße 3, 10785 Berlin, Germany ("AWIN"). These ads are displayed to you in various places on this website. By means of cookies, AWIN can track the course of the respective order and in particular that you have clicked on the respective advertisement and then ordered the product.

We have no influence on this data processing. The data processing takes place on the basis of an agreement between jointly responsible parties in accordance with Art. 26 DSGVO.

7.5 Information on third country transfer (data transfer to third countries)

We use technologies from service providers on our website whose server locations may be in third countries, outside the EU or EEA. This also includes the USA. If, as in the case of the USA, there is no adequacy decision by the EU Commission, an adequate level of data protection must be ensured by means of other suitable guarantees. The ECJ ruled in July 2020 that the Privacy Shield agreement between the EU and the US can no longer be used to transfer personal data to the US. This means that the sectoral adequacy decision has thus been repealed.
Suitable guarantees in the form of contractually agreed standard contractual clauses of the EU Commission or binding internal data protection rules (Binding Corporate Rules) are possible in principle, but require a prior review by the contracting parties as to whether an adequate level of protection can be guaranteed. According to the ECJ ruling, it may be necessary to take additional protective measures for this purpose.
In principle, we have agreed the standard data protection clauses issued by the EU Commission and still valid with the third-party technologies we use that process personal data in a third country such as the USA. Where possible, we also agree on additional safeguards to ensure that sufficient data protection is guaranteed in the USA or other third countries.
Notwithstanding this, it may happen that, despite all contractual and technical measures, the level of data protection in the third country does not correspond to that in the EU. For these cases, we ask you, if necessary, in the context of the cookie consent, for your consent in accordance with Art. 49 (1) lit. a DSGVO to the transfer of your personal data to a third country. This refers in particular to the transfer of data to the USA.
In particular, there is a risk that US authorities may not have sufficiently limited access rights to your personal data from an EU perspective without us as data exporter or you as data subject being aware of this and you may not have any legal remedies to prevent this or to take action against such access.

8. Integration of the Trusted Shops trust badge/other widgets

Trusted Shops widgets (e.g. Trusted Shops Trustbadge) are integrated on this website to display Trusted Shops services (e.g. seal of approval, collected ratings) and to offer Trusted Shops products to buyers after they have placed an order.

This serves to protect our legitimate interests, which outweigh our interests in the context of a balancing of interests, in optimal marketing by enabling secure shopping in accordance with Art. 6 Para. 1 S. 1 lit. f DSGVO. The trust badge and the services advertised with it are an offer of Trusted Shops GmbH, Subbelrather Str. 15C, 50823 Cologne (Trusted Shops), with which we are jointly responsible for data protection according to Art. 26 DSGVO. Within the framework of this data protection notice, we inform you in the following about the essential contents of the contract in accordance with Art. 26 (2) DSGVO.
Within the framework of the joint responsibility between us and Trusted Shops GmbH, please contact Trusted Shops GmbH if you have any data protection questions or wish to assert your rights. Further information on data protection can be found in the following link here. Independently of this, you can also always contact us using the contact option described in this data protection declaration. Your enquiry will then, if necessary, be passed on to the other person responsible for answering it.

8.1 Data processing when integrating the trust badge/other widgets

The Trustbadge is provided by a US-American CDN provider (Content-Delivery-Network) within the scope of joint responsibility. An appropriate level of data protection is ensured by standard data protection clauses and other contractual measures. Further information on the data protection of Trusted Shops GmbH can be found here. When the Trustbadge is called up, the web server automatically saves a so-called server log file, which also contains 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. The IP address is anonymised immediately after collection so that the stored data cannot be assigned to you personally. The anonymised data is used in particular for statistical purposes and for error analysis.

8.2 Data processing after order completion

After the order has been completed, your email address, which has been hashed using a cryptological one-way function, is transmitted to Trusted Shops GmbH. The legal basis is Art. 6 para. 1 p. 1 lit. f DSGVO. This serves to check whether you are already registered for services with Trusted Shops GmbH and is therefore necessary for the fulfilment of our and Trusted Shops' overriding legitimate interests in the provision of the buyer protection linked to the specific order in each case and the transactional evaluation services in accordance with Art. 6 (1) sentence 1 lit. f DSGVO. If this is the case, further processing will be carried out in accordance with the contractual agreement between you and Trusted Shops. If you have not yet registered for the services, you will subsequently be given the opportunity to do so for the first time. Further processing after registration also depends on the contractual agreement with Trusted Shops GmbH. If you do not register, all transmitted data will be automatically deleted by Trusted Shops GmbH and a personal reference is then no longer possible.

Trusted Shops uses service providers in the areas of hosting, monitoring and logging. The legal basis is Art. 6 para. 1 lit. f DSGVO for the purpose of ensuring trouble-free operation. Processing may take place in third countries (USA and Israel). An adequate level of data protection is ensured in the case of the USA by standard data protection clauses and further contractual measures and in the case of Israel by an adequacy decision.
