Cookies

a) Session cookies

We use so-called cookies on our website. Cookies are small text files or other storage technologies that are stored on your device by the Internet browser you use. These cookies process certain information about you on an individual basis, such as your browser or location data or your IP address.

This processing makes our website more user-friendly, effective and secure, as the processing enables, for example, the reproduction of our website in different languages or the offer of a shopping cart function.

The legal basis for this processing is Art. 6 (1) lit b.) GDPR, provided that these cookies process data for the purpose of initiating or executing a contract.

If the processing does not serve to initiate or execute a contract, our legitimate interest lies in improving the functionality of our website. The legal basis is then Art. 6 Para. 1 lit. f) GDPR.

When you close your Internet browser, these session cookies are deleted.


b) Third-party cookies

Our website may also use cookies from partner companies with whom we work for the purposes of advertising, analysis or the functionality of our website.

c) Possibility of removal

You can prevent or restrict the installation of cookies by adjusting the settings on your Internet browser. You can also delete cookies that have already been saved at any time. The steps and measures required to do this depend on the specific Internet browser you are using. If you have any questions, please use the help function or documentation for your Internet browser, or contact the manufacturer or support. However, in the case of so-called Flash cookies, processing cannot be prevented via the browser settings. Instead, you must change the settings on your Flash player. The steps and measures required to do this also depend on the specific Flash player you are using. If you have any questions, please use the help function or documentation for your Flash player, or contact the manufacturer or user support.

However, if you prevent or restrict the installation of cookies, this may mean that not all functions of our website are fully usable.


Cookie Manager

To obtain consent to use cookies that are not technically necessary on the website, the provider uses a cookie manager.

When the website is accessed, a cookie with the setting information is stored on the user's device so that the user does not have to provide consent on subsequent visits.

The cookie is required to obtain legally compliant consent from the user.

The user can prevent or stop the installation of cookies by adjusting his browser settings.


contract execution

The data you provide to use our range of goods and/or services will be processed by us for the purpose of contract execution and are necessary for this purpose. Contract conclusion and contract execution are not possible without the provision of your data.

The legal basis for the processing is Art. 6 Para. 1 lit. b) GDPR.

We delete the data once the contract has been fully processed, but we must observe the retention periods under tax and commercial law.

As part of the contract processing, we will pass on your data to the transport company commissioned to deliver the goods or to the financial service provider, insofar as the transfer is necessary for the delivery of the goods or for payment purposes.

The legal basis for the transfer of data is then Art. 6 Para. 1 lit. b) GDPR.


customer account / registration function

If you create a customer account with us via our website, we will collect and store the data you entered during registration (e.g. your name, address or email address) exclusively for pre-contractual services, for the performance of the contract or for the purpose of customer care (e.g. to provide you with an overview of your previous orders with us or to be able to offer you the so-called wish list function). At the same time, we then store the IP address and the date and time of your registration. This data will of course not be passed on to third parties.

As part of the further registration process, your consent to this processing will be obtained and reference will be made to this privacy policy. The data we collect will be used exclusively to provide the customer account.

If you consent to this processing, Art. 6 (1) lit. a) GDPR is the legal basis for the processing.

If the opening of the customer account also serves pre-contractual measures or the fulfillment of the contract, the legal basis for this processing is also Art. 6 (1) (b) GDPR.

You can revoke the consent you have given us to open and maintain a customer account at any time with effect for the future in accordance with Art. 7 Paragraph 3 GDPR. To do so, you simply need to inform us of your revocation. The data collected in this regard will be deleted as soon as processing is no longer required. However, we must observe retention periods under tax and commercial law.

At the same time, we save the IP address of the internet connection from which you access our website as well as the date and time of your registration. As part of the further registration process, we will obtain your consent to send you the newsletter, describe the content in detail and refer you to this privacy policy. We use the data collected exclusively for sending the newsletter - it is therefore not passed on to third parties.

The legal basis for this is Art. 6 Para. 1 lit. a) GDPR.

You can revoke your consent to receive the newsletter at any time with future effect in accordance with Art. 7 Paragraph 3 GDPR. To do so, you simply need to inform us of your revocation or click on the unsubscribe link included in each newsletter.


contact requests / contact options

If you contact us via the contact form or email, the data you provide will be used to process your request. Providing the data is necessary to process and answer your request - without providing it, we cannot answer your request or can only answer it to a limited extent.

The legal basis for this processing is Art. 6 (1) lit. b) GDPR.

Your data will be deleted if your request has been conclusively answered and there are no statutory retention periods that prevent deletion, such as in the case of any subsequent contract processing.


user contributions, comments and ratings

We offer you the opportunity to publish questions, answers, opinions or evaluations, hereinafter referred to as "contributions", on our website. If you take advantage of this offer, we will process and publish your contribution, the date and time of submission and any pseudonym you may use.

In addition, we also process your IP and email address. The IP address is processed because we have a legitimate interest in initiating or supporting further steps if your contribution infringes on the rights of third parties and/or is otherwise unlawful.

The legal basis in this case is Art. 6 (1) (f) GDPR. Our legitimate interest lies in the legal defense that may be necessary.

Social media linking via graphic or text link

We also advertise presences on the social networks listed below on our website. The integration is done via a linked graphic of the respective network.

Only by clicking on the corresponding graphic is the user redirected to the service of the respective social network.

After the user has been redirected, information about the user is collected by the respective network. It cannot be ruled out that the data collected in this way will be processed in the USA.

This is initially data such as IP address, date, time and page visited. If the user is logged into their user account on the respective network, the network operator may be able to assign the information collected from the user's specific visit to the user's personal account. If the user interacts via a "Share" button on the respective network, this information may be saved in the user's personal user account and may be published. If the user wants to prevent the collected information from being directly assigned to their user account, they must log out before clicking on the graphic. It is also possible to configure the respective user account accordingly.

However, neither we nor third parties who also use Google AdWords are able to identify you in this way.

You can also prevent or restrict the installation of cookies by making the appropriate settings in your Internet browser. At the same time, you can delete cookies that have already been saved at any time. However, the steps and measures required for this depend on the specific Internet browser you are using.
