Privacy Policy

We are delighted about your interest in our website. Protecting your privacy is of utmost importance to us. Below, we provide detailed information on how we handle your data.

Storage of Access Data in Server Log Files

You can visit our website without providing any personal information. We only store access data in server log files, such as the name of the requested file, date and time of access, amount of data transferred, and the requesting provider. These data are used solely to ensure the smooth operation of the website and to improve our services. They do not allow us to draw conclusions about your person.

Data Collection and Use for Contract Processing and When Opening a Customer Account

We collect personal data when you voluntarily provide it to us during your order, when contacting us (e.g., via contact form or email), or when opening a customer account. The data collected can be seen from the respective input forms. We use the data you provide for contract processing and to handle your inquiries. After completion of the contract or deletion of your customer account, your data will be blocked for further use and deleted after the expiry of tax and commercial retention periods, unless you have expressly consented to further use of your data or we reserve the right to use data beyond that, which is permitted by law and about which we inform you below. You can delete your customer account at any time either by sending a message to the contact option described below or via a function provided for this purpose in the customer account.

Data Transfer for Contract Fulfillment

For the purpose of contract fulfillment, we pass on your data to the shipping company responsible for delivery, to the extent necessary for the delivery of ordered goods. Depending on which payment service provider you select in the ordering process, we pass on the payment data collected for this purpose to the credit institution commissioned with the payment and, if applicable, to payment service providers commissioned by us or to the selected payment service. Some of the selected payment service providers also collect these data themselves if you create an account there. In this case, you must log in to the payment service provider with your access data during the ordering process. The data protection declaration of the respective payment service provider applies in this respect.

Use of Data for Email Newsletter Registration

If you subscribe to our newsletter, we will use the necessary data or data provided separately by you to send you the newsletter regularly in accordance with your consent. You can unsubscribe from the newsletter at any time either by sending a message to the contact option described below or via a link provided in the newsletter.

Use of Social Plugins from Facebook, Twitter, Instagram using the Shariff Solution

Our website uses social plugins ("plugins") from social networks. To increase the protection of your data when visiting our website, these plugins are not unrestrictedly integrated, but only using an HTML link (so-called "Shariff solution" by c't) into the page. This integration ensures that when you visit a page on our website that contains such plugins, no connection is yet established with the servers of the provider of the respective social network. Clicking on one of the buttons opens a new window of your browser and calls up the page of the respective service provider where you can (possibly after entering your login data) press the Like or Share button, among others. For the purpose and scope of data collection and the further processing and use of data by the providers on their pages, as well as your rights and setting options for protecting your privacy, please refer to the data protection information of the providers.
