This includes the following data:

  • Your IP address,

  • Date and time of the call,

  • Name and URL of the file you accessed,

  • Website from which the call is made (referrer URL),

  • Information about the browser and operating system you are using,

  • Name of your access provider.

This data is used for the purpose of ensuring a smooth connection and a comfortable use of our website as well as for the evaluation of system security and stability.

The legal basis for the data processing results from Art. 6 para. 1 p. 1 lit. f DSGVO, as we have a legitimate interest in collecting data for the aforementioned purposes. In addition, a legal basis also arises from Art. 6 para. 1 lit. b DSGVO for the processing of data for the performance of a contract or pre-contractual measures.

The data will not be used to draw conclusions about your person.



Contact form/ Communication by e-mail

On our page you will find a contact form. Hereby we would like to give our customers the possibility to contact us in an uncomplicated way. In addition, you can also write to us directly by e-mail. If you want to use our contact form, you must enter your name and a valid e-mail address. If you write to us by e-mail, we will at least receive your e-mail address. All other data provided is optional. The data collection is carried out for the purpose of initiating or implementing contractual relationships in accordance with Art. 6 Para. 1 lit. b DSGVO Insofar as your enquiry is not directed towards initiating or implementing a contract, we nevertheless have a legitimate interest in processing and answering your enquiry. In this respect, the use of personal data for this purpose is based on Art. 6 Para. 1 lit. f DSGVO.

We use the data you provide exclusively to process your inquiry. Insofar as your inquiry is directed towards the initiation or implementation of business, we delete your data according to our internally defined deletion periods.

Insofar as your inquiry is related to another purpose, we delete your data after processing, insofar as no other legal basis for data storage exists.



Processing of customer and contract data

When initiating business, concluding a contract and fulfilling a contract, we use your personal data required for this purpose in accordance with Art. 6 Para. 1 lit. b DSGVO.

Data will only be transferred to third parties if and insofar as this is necessary for the fulfilment of the contract, e.g. if a company has been commissioned for production or transport services or a credit institution for payment processing.

The deletion of this personal data takes place after the expiry of the legal warranty periods or after the end of legal retention periods.

You can also create a user account with us. For this purpose, it is necessary that you provide the data requested in the registration. In the user account you can then view your specified and stored profile data as well as information on orders or products reserved by you. The user account is not publicly accessible. If you delete your user account, all data will be deleted, except for data that we are obliged to store under commercial and tax law in accordance with Art. 6 Para. 1 lit. f DSGVO.

With every login, registration, order or other binding actions, we store your IP address as well as day and time. This is done for your protection and according to Art. 6 para. 1 lit. f DSGVO for our legitimate interest in proving a claim and to prevent abuse or unauthorized use of our system.

Furthermore, within the scope of your consent pursuant to Art. 6 para. 1 lit. a. DSGVO, a cookie can be set which stores your data so that it is automatically entered during your next visit.

Newsletter

On our website there is the possibility to subscribe to a free newsletter for the purpose of direct advertising. When registering for the newsletter, your name and e-mail address from the input mask are transmitted to us. In addition, your IP address and the date and time of registration are used. The collection of other personal data during the registration process serves to prevent misuse of the services or the e-mail address used.

For the processing of the data, your consent is obtained during the registration process and reference is made to this privacy policy. The legal basis for the processing of the data after registration for the newsletter by the user is Art. 6 para. 1 lit. a DSGVO if the user has given his consent.

The data is deleted as soon as it is no longer required to achieve the purpose for which it was collected. The e-mail address of the user is therefore stored as long as the subscription to the newsletter is active.

If you have entered into a contractual relationship with us on our website and enter your e-mail address, this may subsequently be used by us for sending a newsletter for the purpose of direct advertising. In such a case, only direct advertising for our own similar goods or services will be sent via the newsletter. The legal basis for sending the newsletter as a result of the sale of goods or services is Section 7 (3) UWG.

E-mails are sent using "MailChimp", a newsletter sending platform of the US provider Rocket Science Group, LLC, 675 Ponce De Leon Ave NE #5000, Atlanta, GA 30308, USA.

Subject to legal or contractual permissions, we allow MailChimp to process the data in a third country under the special conditions of Art. 44 et seq. DSGVO. Rocket Science Group has submitted to the DSGVO. This means that the processing is carried out in compliance with officially recognized special contractual obligations (so-called "standard contractual clauses").

You can view the privacy policy of the shipping service provider here:https://mailchimp.com/legal/privacy/.

The subscription to the newsletter can be cancelled by the user concerned at any time. For this purpose, a corresponding link can be found in each newsletter.

Based on your consent (within the meaning of Art. 6 para. 1 lit. a.

To the extent that you have given your consent, we may display targeted advertisements on our site and for our site on third party sites through Google's marketing services in a manner that is customized to the potential interests of users. The ads may be customized to the extent that users receive offers on other sites that they viewed on our site but did not purchase (remarketing). On our site and on pages where Google marketing services are activated, a (re-)marketing tag, a corresponding code, is executed by Google for this purpose and the web pages are integrated. This code generates a cookie on your terminal device in which it is noted which Internet pages you have visited as a user, which content you are interested in and which offers you have completed or even only viewed. Furthermore, technical data such as browser, visiting times and information of the other visited page are also stored in this cookie. In addition, your IP address is transmitted to Google in anonymous form. A combination of the data on the part of Google with data from other sources is also possible.

We use the Google Adwords service as part of these Google marketing services. By using Google Adwords, we can see what happens after a user clicks on the corresponding ad. This can be, for example, the purchase of a product, the registration for a newsletter, a call to our company or that of a file. In this context, corresponding customer actions that we have defined are referred to as a conversion. The conversion cookie is thus specifically tailored to us and cannot be tracked by other Adwords customers. These conversion cookies are important for us, as they allow us to compile statistics on the usage of all customers in order to better optimise our offer. No information is used that can identify an individual user in the process.
