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 the handling of your data.

1. Access data and hosting

You can visit our websites without providing any personal information. With each visit to a website, the web server 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 access, the amount of data transferred, and the requesting provider (access data), and documents the access. This access data is evaluated exclusively for the purpose of ensuring trouble-free operation of the site and improving our services. This serves to protect our legitimate interests in a correct presentation of our services, which are overriding in the context of a balancing of interests, in accordance with Art. 6 Para. 1 S. 1 lit. f GDPR.

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 explained in this privacy policy, all access data and all data collected in designated forms on this website will be processed on their servers. For questions about our service providers and the basis of our cooperation with them, please contact the contact options described in this privacy policy.

Our service providers are located and/or use servers in the following countries, for which the European Commission has determined an adequate level of data protection by decision: Canada

2. Data processing for contract execution and contact

2.1 Data processing for contract execution

For the purpose of contract execution (including inquiries about and processing of any existing warranty and performance disruption claims as well as any statutory update obligations) in accordance with Art. 6 Para. 1 S. 1 lit. b GDPR, we collect personal data when you voluntarily provide it to us as part of your order. Mandatory fields are marked as such, because in these cases we absolutely need the data for contract execution and cannot send the order without them. Which data is collected is evident 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 shipping processing, can be found in the following sections of this privacy policy. After complete execution of the contract, your data will be restricted for further processing and deleted after the expiry of tax and commercial law retention periods in accordance with Art. 6 Para. 1 S. 1 lit. c GDPR, unless you have expressly consented to further use of your data in accordance with Art. 6 Para. 1 S. 1 lit. a GDPR or we reserve the right to further data use that is legally permitted and about which we inform you in this statement.

2.2 Customer account

If you have given your consent in accordance with Art. 6 Para. 1 S. 1 lit. a GDPR by deciding to open a customer account, we use your data for the purpose of opening a customer account and for storing your data for further future orders on our website. Your customer account can be deleted 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 S. 1 lit. a GDPR or we reserve the right to further data use that is legally permitted and about which we inform you in this statement.

2.3 Contacting us

As part of customer communication, we collect personal data for processing your inquiries in accordance with Art. 6 Para. 1 S. 1 lit. b GDPR when you voluntarily provide it to us when contacting us (e.g., via contact form or e-mail). Mandatory fields are marked as such, because in these cases we absolutely need the data for processing your contact. Which data is collected is evident from the respective input forms. After your inquiry has been fully processed, your data will be deleted, unless you have expressly consented to further use of your data in accordance with Art. 6 Para. 1 S. 1 lit. a GDPR or we reserve the right to further data use that is legally permitted and about which we inform you in this statement.

3. Data processing for shipping purposes

For the fulfillment of the contract in accordance with Art. 6 Para. 1 S. 1 lit. b GDPR, 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.

4. Data processing for payment processing

When processing payments in our online shop, we work 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 the processing of the payment transaction to our technical service providers, who act for us as part of order processing, or to the commissioned credit institutions or to the selected payment service provider, insofar as this is necessary for the processing of the payment. This serves to fulfill the contract in accordance with Art. 6 Para. 1 S. 1 lit. b GDPR. In some cases, the payment service providers collect the data required for payment processing 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.
For questions about our partners for payment processing and the basis of our cooperation with them, please contact the contact option described in this privacy policy.

4.2 Data processing for fraud prevention and optimization of our payment processes

If necessary, we may provide our service providers with additional data that they use together with the data necessary for payment processing as our processors for the purpose of fraud prevention and optimization of our payment processes (e.g., invoicing, processing of disputed payments, support for accounting). This serves to protect our legitimate interests in safeguarding against fraud and efficient payment management, which are overriding in the context of a balancing of interests, in accordance with Art. 6 Para. 1 S. 1 lit. f GDPR.

5. Advertising by e-mail, post

5.1 E-mail newsletter with registration

If you subscribe to our newsletter, we use the data required for this or separately provided by you to regularly send you our e-mail newsletter based on your consent in accordance with Art. 6 Para. 1 S. 1 lit. a GDPR. Unsubscribing from the newsletter is possible at any time and can be done either by sending a message to the contact option described below or via a dedicated link in the newsletter.

6. Cookies and other technologies

General information

Cookies are small text files that are automatically stored on your device. Some of the cookies we use are deleted after the end of the browser session, i.e., after you close your browser (so-called session cookies). Other cookies remain on your device and enable us to recognize your browser on your next visit (persistent cookies).

Protection of privacy on end devices
When using our online services, we employ strictly necessary technologies to provide the expressly requested telemedia service. The storage of information in your end device or access to information already stored in your end device does not require consent in this respect.

For functions that are not strictly necessary, the storage of information in your end device or access to information already stored in your end device requires your consent. We point out that if consent is not given, parts of the website may not be fully usable. Any consents you have given remain valid until you adjust or reset the respective settings on your end device.

Any downstream data processing through cookies and other technologies
We use technologies that are strictly necessary for the use of certain functions of our website (e.g., shopping cart function). Through these technologies, IP address, time of visit, device and browser information, as well as information about your use of our website (e.g., information about the content of the shopping cart) are collected and processed. This serves to protect our legitimate interests in an optimized presentation of our services, which are overriding in the context of a balancing of interests, in accordance with Art. 6 Para. 1 S. 1 lit. f GDPR.

7. Integration of the Trusted Shops Trustbadge/other widgets

If you have given your consent in accordance with Art. 6 Para. 1 S. 1 lit. a GDPR, Trusted Shops widgets are integrated on this website to display Trusted Shops services (e.g., quality seal, collected ratings) and to offer Trusted Shops products to buyers after an order.

The Trustbadge and the services advertised with it are an offer of Trusted Shops AG, Subbelrather Str. 15C, 50823 Cologne ("Trusted Shops"), with whom we are jointly responsible for data protection in accordance with Art. 26 GDPR. In the context of this data protection notice, we inform you below about the essential contractual contents according to Art. 26 Para. 2 GDPR.

In the context of the joint responsibility existing between us and Trusted Shops AG, please contact Trusted Shops preferably for data protection questions and to assert your rights, using the contact options specified in the data protection information. Regardless of this, you can always contact the controller of your choice. Your inquiry will then be forwarded to the other controller for a response, if necessary.

7.1 Data processing when integrating the Trustbadge/other widgets

The Trustbadge is provided by a US American CDN provider (Content Delivery Network). An adequate level of data protection is ensured by an adequacy decision of the EU Commission, which can be found here for the USA. Service providers used from the USA are generally certified under the EU-U.S. Data Privacy Framework (DPF). Further information can be found here. If service providers used are not certified under the DPF, standard contractual clauses have been concluded as appropriate safeguards.

When the Trustbadge is called up, the web server automatically stores a so-called server log file, which also contains your IP address, the date and time of access, the amount of data transferred and the requesting provider (access data) and documents the access. The IP address is anonymized immediately after collection, so that the stored data cannot be assigned to your person. The anonymized data is used in particular for statistical purposes and error analysis.

7.2 Data processing after order completion

If you have given your consent, the Trustbadge accesses order information stored on your end device (order total, order number, possibly purchased product) as well as your email address after the order is completed, and your email address is hashed using a cryptographic one-way function. The hash value is then transmitted to Trusted Shops with the order information in accordance with Art. 6 Para. 1 S. 1 lit. a GDPR.
This serves to verify whether you are already registered for Trusted Shops services. If this is the case, further processing takes place in accordance with the contractual agreement between you and Trusted Shops. If you are not yet registered for the services or do not give your consent for automatic recognition via the Trustbadge, you will then have the option to manually register for the use of the services or to conclude the protection within the framework of your possibly existing user agreement.

For this purpose, the Trustbadge accesses the following information stored on your end device after completion of your order: order total, order number, and email address. This is necessary so that we can offer you buyer protection. Data is only transmitted to Trusted Shops if you actively decide to conclude buyer protection by clicking on the correspondingly labeled button in the so-called Trustcard. If you decide to use the services, further processing is governed by the contractual agreement with Trusted Shops in accordance with Art. 6 Para. 1 lit. b GDPR, in order to complete your registration for buyer protection and secure the order, and to send you review invitations by email, if applicable.

Trusted Shops uses service providers for hosting, monitoring, and logging. The legal basis for this is Art. 6 (1) lit. f GDPR, for the purpose of ensuring smooth operation. Processing may take place in third countries (USA and Israel). An adequate level of data protection is ensured in each case by an adequacy decision of the EU Commission, which is available here for the USA and here for Israel. Service providers used from the USA are generally certified under the EU-U.S. Data Privacy Framework (DPF). Further information is available here. If service providers used are not certified under the DPF, standard contractual clauses have been concluded as appropriate safeguards.
