Thank you for your interest in our online shop. Protecting your privacy is very important to us.

Below, we will inform you in detail about how we handle your data.

1. Access Data and Hosting

You can visit our websites without providing any personal information. Each time you access a website, the web server automatically stores only a so-called server log file, which contains, for example, the name of the requested file, your IP address, 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 to ensure the smooth operation of the site and to improve our offerings. This serves to protect our legitimate interests, which are overriding in the context of a balancing of interests, in presenting our offerings correctly in accordance with Art. 6 (1) sentence 1 lit. f GDPR. All access data will be deleted no later than seven days after the end of your visit to the site.

1.1 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 forms provided for this purpose on this website are processed on their servers. If you have questions about our service providers and the basis of our cooperation with them, please contact us using the contact details provided in this privacy policy.

1.2 Content Delivery Network

To reduce loading times, we use a so-called Content Delivery Network ("CDN") for some offers. With this service, content, e.g., large media files, is delivered via regionally distributed servers of external CDN service providers. Therefore, access data is processed on the service providers' servers. Our service providers act as processors on our behalf. If you have questions about our service providers and the basis of our cooperation with them, please contact us using the contact details provided in this privacy policy.

2. Data Processing for Contract Fulfillment and Contacting Us

We collect personal data when 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 for contract fulfillment or to process your contact request, and you cannot complete the order or send the contact request without providing them. Which data is collected can be seen from the respective input forms. We use the data you provide to fulfill the contract and process your inquiries in accordance with Art. 6 (1) sentence 1 lit. b GDPR. Further information on the processing of your data, in particular on the disclosure 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 processing of the contract, your data will be restricted for further processing and deleted after the expiry of any tax and commercial law retention periods in accordance with Art. 6 (1) sentence 1 lit. c GDPR, unless you have expressly consented to further use of your data in accordance with Art. 6 (1) sentence 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 declaration.

3. Data Processing for Shipping Purposes

For the fulfillment of the contract in accordance with Art. 6 (1) sentence 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.

 The same applies to the transfer of data to our manufacturers or wholesalers in cases where they handle the shipping for us (drop shipping). These are considered shipping service providers within the meaning of this privacy policy.

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

If you have given us your express consent to this during or after your order, we will, based on this consent in accordance with Art. 6 (1) sentence 1 lit. a GDPR, pass on your e-mail address and telephone number to the selected shipping service provider so that they can contact you before delivery for the purpose of delivery notification or coordination.

The consent can be revoked at any time by sending a message to the contact option described in this privacy policy or directly to the shipping service provider at the contact address listed below. After revocation, we will delete the data you provided for this purpose, unless you have expressly consented to further use of your data or we reserve the right to further data use that is legally permitted and about which we inform you in this declaration.

4. Data Processing for Payment Processing

We cooperate with the following partners for payment processing in our online shop: 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 act as processors on our behalf, or to the commissioned credit institutions or to the

 selected payment service provider, insofar as this is necessary for processing the payment. This serves to fulfill the contract in accordance with Art. 6 (1) sentence 1 lit. b GDPR. In part, the payment service providers collect the data required for payment processing themselves, e.g., on their own website or via technical integration in the order process. In this respect, the data protection declaration of the respective payment service provider applies.

If you have questions about our partners for payment processing and the basis of our cooperation with them, please contact us using the contact details provided in this privacy policy.

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

We may pass on further data to our service providers, which they, together with the data necessary for payment processing, use as our processors for the purpose of fraud prevention and optimizing our payment processes (e.g., invoicing, processing of disputed payments, support for accounting). This serves to protect our legitimate interests, which are overriding in the context of a balancing of interests, in securing ourselves against fraud and in efficient payment management, in accordance with Art. 6 (1) sentence 1 lit. f GDPR.

5. Email advertising

Email Newsletter with registration

If you subscribe to our newsletter, we will use the data required for this purpose or separately communicated by you to send you our email newsletter regularly based on your consent in accordance with Art. 6 (1) sentence 1 lit. a GDPR.
