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 website without providing any personal information. Each time you access 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 solely for the purpose of ensuring trouble-free operation of the site and improving our offering. This serves to safeguard our legitimate interests in the correct presentation of our offering, which prevail within the framework of a balancing of interests, in accordance with Art. 6 (1) (f) GDPR.

2. Data processing for contract processing and contact

2.1 Data processing for contract execution

For the purpose of contract processing (including inquiries regarding and processing of any existing warranty and performance claims, as well as any statutory update obligations) in accordance with Art. 6 (1) (b) GDPR, we collect personal data when you voluntarily provide it to us as part of your order. Mandatory fields are marked as such, as in these cases we absolutely need the data to process the contract, and without it we cannot ship the order. The data 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 the contract has been fully processed, your data will be restricted for further processing and deleted after expiry of the retention periods under tax and commercial law in accordance with Art. 6 (1) (c) GDPR, unless you have expressly consented to further use of your data in accordance with Art. 6 (1) (a) GDPR or we reserve the right to use the data in any other way that is permitted by law and about which we will inform you in this policy.

2.2 Customer account

If you have given your consent to this in accordance with Art. 6 (1) (a) GDPR by deciding to open a customer account, we will use your data for the purpose of opening a customer account and to store your data for future orders on our website. You can delete your customer account at any time and this 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 your customer account. After your customer account has been deleted, your data will be deleted unless you have expressly consented to further use of your data in accordance with Art. 6 (1) (a) GDPR or we reserve the right to use the data in any other way that is permitted by law and about which we will inform you in this policy.

2.3 Contact

As part of customer communication, we collect personal data in order to process your inquiries in accordance with Art. 6 (1) (b) GDPR if you voluntarily provide it to us when contacting us (e.g. via contact form, live chat tool or email).

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.

Depending on the selected payment method, we will pass on the data necessary for processing the payment transaction to our technical service providers, who work for us as part of a contract processing agreement, or to the commissioned credit institutions or to the selected payment service provider, insofar as this is necessary to process the payment. This serves the purpose of fulfilling the contract in accordance with Art. 6 (1) (b) GDPR. In some cases, the payment service providers collect the data required for processing the payment themselves, e.g., on their own website or via a technical integration in the ordering process. The privacy policy of the respective payment service provider applies in this respect.

Pursuant to Art. 6 (1) (f) GDPR, this serves to safeguard our legitimate interests in protecting ourselves against fraud and in efficient payment management, which prevail within the framework of a balancing of interests.
