We appreciate your interest in our online shop. Protecting your privacy is very important to us. Below, we provide detailed information about how we handle your data.

1. Access data and hosting
You can visit our websites without providing any personal information. Each time a webpage is accessed, 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 solely for the purpose of ensuring the smooth operation of the website and improving our services. This serves our legitimate interests, which, in accordance with Art. 6 Para. 1 Sentence 1 lit. f GDPR, override any conflicting interests, in ensuring the correct presentation of our services. All access data is deleted no later than seven days after the end of your visit to the website.

Hosting services provided by a third-party provider
As part of processing on our behalf, a third-party provider hosts and displays our website. All data collected through the use of this website or via forms provided in the online shop, as described below, is processed on their servers. Processing on other servers only takes place within the scope described here.

This service provider is located within a country of the European Union or the European Economic Area.

2. Data collection and use for contract processing, contacting customers and when opening a customer account
We collect personal data when you voluntarily provide it to us as part of your order or when contacting us (e.g., via contact form or email). Required fields are marked as such because we absolutely need this data to process your order or your inquiry, and you cannot submit your order or contact request without providing it. The specific data collected is evident from the respective input forms. We use the data you provide in accordance with Article 6 Paragraph 1 Sentence 1 Letter b GDPR for contract processing and handling your inquiries.

If you have given your consent in accordance with Art. 6 para. 1 sentence 1 lit. a GDPR by choosing to open a customer account, we will use your data for the purpose of opening the customer account.
After complete fulfillment of the contract or deletion of your customer account, your data will be restricted from further processing and deleted after the statutory retention periods under tax and commercial law have expired, unless you have expressly consented to further use of your data or we reserve the right to use your data beyond this scope, which is permitted by law and about which we inform you in this statement. You can delete your customer account at any time, either by sending a message to the contact address provided below or by using the corresponding function in your customer account.

3. Data sharing
For the purpose of fulfilling the contract pursuant to Art. 6 para. 1 sentence 1 lit. b GDPR, we will forward 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 during the ordering process, we will forward the payment data collected for this purpose to the bank commissioned with processing 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 if you create an account with them. In this case, you must log in to the payment service provider with your access data during the ordering process. The data protection policy of the respective payment service provider applies in this respect.

4. Email newsletter
Email advertising with newsletter registration
When you subscribe to our newsletter, we use the data required for this purpose or data you have separately provided to send you our email newsletter regularly based on your consent in accordance with Art. 6 para. 1 sentence 1 lit. a GDPR.

You can unsubscribe from the newsletter at any time, either by sending a message to the contact address provided below or by using the unsubscribe link in the newsletter. After unsubscribing, we will delete your email address from the mailing list unless you have expressly consented to further use of your data or we reserve the right to use your data for other purposes permitted by law, which we will inform you about in this privacy policy.
