General information on the processing of personal data

Order processing

We process the data of our customers in the context of the ordering process through our online shop to enable them to select and order the selected products and services, as well as facilitate their payment and product delivery.

The data processed includes inventory data, communication data, contract data, payment data.
The individuals and entities affected by the processing include our customers, prospective customers and other business partners.
Data processing is carried out for the purpose of providing contractual services within the framework of the operation of an online shop, billing, delivery and customer services. In this context, we use session cookies to store the contents of the shopping cart and permanent cookies to store the login status.
The processing is carried out on the basis of Art. 6 (1)(b) (execution of order transactions) and (c) (legally required archiving) GDPR. In this context, the information marked as required is necessary for the justification and fulfilment of the contract. We disclose the data to third parties only in the context of delivery, payment or in the context of legal permissions and obligations to legal advisors and authorities. The data is only processed in third countries if this is necessary for the fulfilment of the contract (e.g. at the customer's request for delivery or payment).
Users can optionally create a user account, in which they can view their orders in detail. As part of the registration process, users are asked to provide required mandatory information. User accounts are not public and cannot be indexed by search engines. If users have cancelled their user account, their data related to the user account will be deleted. It can be retained if necessary for commercial or tax reasons in accordance with Art. 6 (1)(c) GDPR. Information in the customer account remains until its deletion with subsequent archiving in the event of a legal obligation. It is the responsibility of the users to save their data in the event of removal before the end of the contract.

Within the scope of registration and renewed logins as well as the use of our online services, we store the IP address and the time of the respective user action. The storage is based on our legitimate interests, as well as the user's protection against misuse and other unauthorized actions. In principle, this data is not passed on to third parties unless it is necessary for fulfilment of orders or there is a legal obligation to do so in accordance with Art. 6 (1)(c) GDPR.
The deletion takes place after the expiry of legal warranty and comparable obligations. The necessity of the storage of the data is reviewed every three years; in the case of legal archiving obligations, the deletion takes place after their expiry (6 years for commercial reasons and 10 years for tax reasons).

Use of "Google Analytics"

This website uses Google Analytics, a web tracking service provided by Google Ireland Limited, Gordon House, Barrow Street, Dublin 4, Ireland (Google). The purpose of us using the tool is to enable the analysis of your user interactions on websites and in apps and to improve our offer through the statistics and reports obtained and to make it more interesting for you as a user.
(We primarily track the interactions between you, the website user, and our website through cookies, device/browser data, IP addresses, and website or app activity. Google Analytics also collects your IP addresses to ensure the security of the service and to provide us, as the website operator, with information about which country, region or location the respective user comes from (IP location determination). For your protection, however, we always use the anonymisation function (IP masking), i.e. Google truncates the IP addresses by the last octet within the EU/EEA.
Google acts as an order processor and we have concluded a corresponding contract with Google. The information generated by the cookie and the (usually shortened) IP addresses about your use of this website are usually transferred to a Google server in the USA and processed there. For these cases, Google has, according to its own statements, imposed a standard on itself that corresponds to the former EU-US Privacy Shield Frameworks and has agreed to comply with applicable data protection laws in the international transfer of data. We have also agreed upon standard contractual clauses with Google, the purpose of which is to ensure compliance with an appropriate level of data protection in the third country.
The legal basis for the collection and further processing of the information (which takes place for a maximum of 14 months) is your given consent (Art. 6(1)(1)(a) GDPR). The revocation of your consent is possible at any time without affecting the permissibility of the processing until the revocation. In apps, you can reset the advertising ID under the Android or iOS settings. The easiest way to revoke your consent is to use our Consent Manager or to install the Google browser add-on, which can be accessed via the following link: tools.google.com/dlpage/gaoptout?hl=en.

For more information on the scope of services provided by Google Analytics, please visit marketingplatform.google.com/about/analytics/terms/de.

Google provides information on data processing when using Google Analytics at the following link: support.google.com/analytics/answer/6004245?hl=en.

Use of YouTube

We have integrated YouTube videos into our online offer, which are stored on YouTube.com and can be played directly from our website. [These are all integrated in "extended data protection mode", i.e. no data about you as a user is transmitted to YouTube if you do not play the videos. Only when you play the videos, the data mentioned in paragraph 2 are transmitted. We have no influence on this data transmission]. The legal basis for the display of the videos is Art. 6(1)(1)(a) GDPR, i.e. the integration only takes place after your consent.
By visiting the website, YouTube receives the information that you have accessed the corresponding subpage of our website. In addition, the above-mentioned basic data such as IP address and timestamp are transmitted. This occurs regardless of whether YouTube provides a user account via which you are logged in or whether no user account exists. If you are logged in to Google, your data will be directly assigned to your account. If you do not wish to have your data associated with your YouTube profile, you must log out before activating the button. YouTube stores your data as usage profiles and uses them for the purposes of advertising, market research and/or demand-oriented design of its website. Such an evaluation is carried out in particular (even for users who are not logged in) to provide needs-based advertising and to inform other users of the social network about your activities on our website. You have the right to object to the creation of these user profiles, whereby you must contact YouTube to exercise this right.
The information collected is stored on Google servers, in the USA. For these cases, the provider has, according to its own information, imposed a standard on itself that corresponds to the former EU-US Privacy Shield Frameworks and has agreed to comply with applicable data protection laws in the international transfer of data.

Use of "Facebook Pixel" (category 'Personalization')

The website uses advertising measures of Facebook Inc. (Facebook). By integrating "Facebook Pixel" on our website, we can display our advertising measures (Facebook Ads) to our website and social network Facebook users and measure and evaluate the success (Conversion Tracking). This connection of Facebook and our website is technically carried out via the "Facebook Pixel". The legal basis for the processing of your data is Art. 6(1)(1)(a) GDPR, i.e., the integration only takes place after your consent.
Due to the marketing tools used, your browser automatically establishes a direct connection with the Facebook server when you visit our website. We have no influence on the scope and further use of the data collected by Facebook through the use of this tool and therefore present you with the processes known to us: through the integration of "Facebook Pixel", Facebook receives the information that you have called up the corresponding web page of our website, or clicked on an advertisement from us. If you are registered with a Facebook service, Facebook can assign the visit to your account. Even if you are not registered with Facebook or have not logged in, it is possible that the provider will learn your IP address and other identifying features and use them to create a profile.
The information collected is stored on Facebook servers, including in the USA. For these cases, the provider has, according to its own information, imposed a standard on itself that corresponds to the former EU-US Privacy Shield Frameworks and has agreed to comply with applicable data protection laws in the international transfer of data. We have also agreed upon standard data protection clauses with Facebook, the purpose of which is to ensure compliance with an appropriate level of data protection in the third country. The revocation of your consent is possible at any time without affecting the permissibility of the processing until the revocation. The easiest way to revoke your consent is via our Consent Manager or by clicking [here]. In addition, (only logged in users) can object via the function of the provider under the following link: www.facebook.com/settings/?tab=ads#_ possible.
We also use the remarketing function "Custom Audiences" which also uses "Facebook Pixel" and to display interest-based advertisements when you visit our website or other websites that have also integrated "Facebook Pixel". This allows us to show you advertisements that are of interest to you in order to make our website more interesting for you and to market our offer. Further information on data processing by Facebook is available at Facebook Inc, 1601 S California Ave, Palo Alto, California 94304, USA; privacy policy: www.facebook.com/about/privacy.

The recipient of the data is our server host, who works for us within the framework of an order data agreement.
The legal basis for data processing is initially your consent (Art. 6(1)(a) GDPR). When carrying out transactions from the user account, the performance of a contract acts as a legal basis for collection of the data (Art. 6(1)(b) GDPR).
The provision of personal data is neither legally nor contractually required and is also not necessary for the conclusion of a contract. You are also not obliged to provide the personal data. However, we cannot provide you with a user account without the necessary information.

When contacting us (e.g., via contact form, email, telephone or via social media), the user's details are processed for the purpose of handling the contact request and its processing pursuant to Art. 6(1)(b) GDPR. The user's details may be stored in a customer relationship management system (CRM system) or comparable enquiry organisation.
We delete the enquiries if they are no longer necessary. We review the necessity every two years. The legal archiving obligations apply.

Newsletter

By subscribing to our newsletter, you agree to receive it and to the procedures described.
Content of the newsletter: we send newsletters, e-mails and other electronic notifications with promotional information (newsletter) only with the consent of the recipients or a legal permission. If the contents of the Newsletter are specifically described in the context of a registration, they are decisive for the consent of the users. Apart from that, our newsletters contain information about our products and accompanying information (e.g., safety instructions), offers, promotions and our company.

Double-Opt-In and logging: the registration for our newsletter takes place in a Double-Opt-In procedure. This means that after registration you will receive an e-mail in which you are asked to confirm your registration. This confirmation is necessary so that no one can register with other e-mail addresses. The registrations to the newsletter are logged in order to be able to prove the registration process according to the legal requirements. This includes the storage of the registration and confirmation time, as well as the IP address. Likewise, changes to your data stored with the dispatch service provider are logged.

Registration data: to register for the newsletter, it is sufficient to provide your e-mail address.

The dispatch of the newsletter and the performance measurement associated with it are carried out on the basis of the consent of the recipients in accordance with Art. 6(1)(a) GDPR. We will also use your e-mail address in relation to any product recalls in order to provide you with necessary information. The legal basis for this is Art. 6(1)(b) GDPR.
The logging of the registration process is based on our legitimate interests according to Art. 6(1)(f) GDPR. Our interest is directed towards the use of a user-friendly as well as secure newsletter system that serves our business interests as well as meets the expectations of the users and furthermore allows us to prove consent.

Cancellation/Revocation - You may cancel your subscription to our newsletter at any time, i.e., revoke your consent. You will find a link to unsubscribe at the end of each newsletter. We may store unsubscribed email addresses for up to three years based on our legitimate interests before deleting them to prove consent was previously given. The processing of this data is limited to the purpose of a possible defence against claims. An individual deletion request is possible at any time, provided that the former existence of consent is confirmed at the same time.

Social Networks & External Links

We currently use the following social media plug-in: Facebook Pixel, which is only loaded if you have previously activated the function by giving your consent. Through the plug-ins, we offer you the opportunity to interact with social networks and other users. The legal basis for the use of the plug-ins is Art. 6(1)(1)(a) GDPR, i.e., the integration only takes place after your consent.
The plug-in provider stores the data collected about you as usage profiles and uses them for purposes of advertising, market research and/or demand-oriented design of its website. Such an evaluation is carried out in particular (also for non-logged-in users) for the display of needs-based advertising and to inform other users of the social network about your activities on our website. You have the right to object to the creation of these user profiles, whereby you must contact the respective plug-in provider to exercise this right. The data transfer takes place regardless of whether you have an account with the plug-in provider and are logged in there. If you are logged in to the plug-in provider, your data collected from us will be directly assigned to your account with the plug-in provider. If you click the activated button and, for example, link to the page, the plug-in provider will also store this information in your user account and share it publicly with your contacts. We recommend that you log out regularly after using a social network, but especially before activating the button, as you can thus avoid an assignment to your profile with the plug-in provider.
The information collected is stored on servers of the providers, in the case of international providers also outside Europe. For these cases, the provider has, according to its own information, imposed a standard on itself that corresponds to the former EU-US Privacy Shield Frameworks and has agreed to comply with applicable data protection laws in the international transfer of data. We have also agreed upon standard data protection clauses with the providers, the purpose of which is to ensure compliance with an appropriate level of data protection in the third country.
The revocation of your consent is possible at any time without affecting the permissibility of the processing until the revocation. The easiest way to revoke your consent is via our Consent Manager or via the functions of the social media providers.
Further information on the purpose and scope of the data collection and its processing by the plug-in provider can be found in the data protection declarations of these providers communicated below. There you will also receive further information about your rights in this regard and setting options for protecting your privacy.

External payment service providers

We use external payment service providers through whose platforms users and we can make payment transactions (each with a link to the privacy policy):

Paypal: Privacy Policy,
Zinia: Privacy Policy,
Via Stripe: Privacy Policy,
Visa: Privacy Policy,
Mastercard: Privacy Policy,
American Express: Privacy Policy

In the context of the performance of contracts, we use the payment service providers on the basis of Art. 6(1)(b) GDPR. Furthermore, we use external payment service providers on the basis of our legitimate interests pursuant to Art. 6(1)(f) GDPR in order to offer our users effective and secure payment options.
The data processed by the payment service providers includes inventory data, name and address, bank data, account numbers or credit card numbers, passwords, TANs and checksums, as well as contract, total and recipient-related information. The information is required to complete the transactions. However, the data entered is only processed by the payment service providers and stored with them. I.e., we do not receive any account or credit card related information, but only information with confirmation of successful or declined payment. Under certain circumstances, the data may be transmitted by the payment service providers to credit agencies. The purpose of this transmission is to check identity and creditworthiness. In this regard, we refer to the terms and conditions and data protection information of the payment service providers.
For payment transactions, the terms and conditions and data protection information of the respective payment service providers apply, which can be accessed within the respective websites or transaction applications. We also refer to these for the purpose of further information and assertion of revocation, information and other data subject rights.
For the fulfilment of the contract, it may be necessary that the data is forwarded to our payment service provider or to the commissioned credit institution. This depends on the selected payment method.

Payment provider

You can use the following payment methods with us:

Paypal
The European operating company of PayPal is PayPal (Europe) S.à.r.l. & Cie. S.C.A., 22-24 Boulevard Royal, 2449 Luxembourg. If you choose PayPal as your payment method, your data required for the payment process will be automatically transmitted to PayPal. This regularly involves the following data: Name, address, company, e-mail address, telephone and mobile number, IP address.
The data transmitted to PayPal may be transferred by PayPal to credit agencies. The purpose of this transmission is to check your identity and creditworthiness. PayPal may also pass on your data to third parties insofar as this is necessary for the fulfilment of contractual obligations or the data is to be processed on behalf of PayPal. You can read PayPal's privacy policy at Privacy Policy.
The legal basis for the data processing is Art. 6(1)(b) GDPR, as the processing of the data is necessary for the payment with PayPal and thus for the execution of the contract.

Credit card / Stripe
If you choose a payment method offered via the payment service provider "Stripe", the payment processing is carried out via Stripe Payments Europe Ltd., 1 Grand Canal Street Lower, Grand Canal Dock, Dublin, Ireland, to whom we pass on your information provided during the ordering process together with information about your order (name, address, account number, bank sort code, credit card number if applicable, invoice amount, currency and transaction number) in accordance with Art. 6(1)(b) GDPR. Your data will only be passed on for the purpose of processing payments with Stripe Payments Europe Ltd. and only to the extent necessary for this purpose. You can find more information on the data protection of "Stripe" at the following internet address: Privacy Policy.

Apple Pay
If you choose the "Apple Pay" payment method of Apple Distribution International (Apple), Hollyhill Industrial Estate, Hollyhill, Cork, Ireland, the payment processing takes place via the "Apple Pay" function of your terminal device operated with iOS, watchOS or macOS by charging a payment card deposited with "Apple Pay". Apple Pay uses security functions that are integrated into the hardware and software of your device to protect your transactions. For the release of a payment, the entry of a code previously defined by you as well as the verification by means of the "Face ID" or "Touch ID" function of your terminal device is therefore required.
For the purpose of payment processing, the information you provide during the ordering process, together with information about your order, is passed on to Apple in encrypted form. Apple then re-encrypts this data with a developer-specific key before transmitting the data to the payment service provider of the payment card stored in Apple Pay to process the payment. The encryption ensures that only the website through which the purchase was made can access the payment data. After the payment is made, Apple sends your device account number and a transaction-specific dynamic security code to the originating website to confirm the success of the payment.
Insofar as personal data is processed during the described transfers, the processing is carried out exclusively for the purpose of payment processing in accordance with Art. 6(1)(b) GDPR.
Apple retains anonymised transaction data, including the approximate amount of the purchase, the approximate date and time, and whether the transaction was completed successfully. Anonymization completely eliminates the possibility of any personal reference. Apple uses the anonymised data to improve Apple Pay and other Apple products and services.
When you use Apple Pay on iPhone or Apple Watch to complete a purchase made through Safari on the Mac, the Mac and the authorization device communicate over an encrypted channel on Apple's servers. Apple does not process or store any of this information in a format that can identify you personally. You can disable the ability to use Apple Pay on your Mac in your iPhone settings. Go to "Wallet & Apple Pay", and uncheck "Allow payments on Mac".
For more information about Apple Pay privacy, please visit Privacy Policy.

Google Pay
If you choose the payment method "Google Pay" of Google Ireland Limited, Gordon House, 4 Barrow St, Dublin, D04 E5W5, Ireland (Google), the payment will be processed via the "Google Pay" application of your mobile device running at least Android 4.4 ("KitKat") and having an NFC function by charging a payment card deposited with Google Pay or a payment system verified there (e.g., PayPal). For the release of a payment via Google Pay in the amount of more than €25, the prior unlocking of your mobile device by the respective verification measure set up (such as facial recognition, password, fingerprint or pattern) is required. For the purpose of payment processing, the information you provide during the ordering process, together with information about your order, will be passed on to Google. Google then transmits your payment information stored in Google Pay in the form of a uniquely assigned transaction number to the source website, with which a completed payment is verified. This transaction number does not contain any information about the real payment data of your payment means deposited in Google Pay, but is created and transmitted as a one-time valid numeric token. For all transactions via Google Pay, Google only acts as an intermediary to process the payment. The transaction is carried out exclusively in the relationship between the user and the source website by debiting the payment means deposited with Google Pay.
Insofar as personal data is processed during the described transfers, the processing is carried out exclusively for the purpose of payment processing in accordance with Art. 6(1)(b) GDPR.
Google reserves the right to collect, store and analyse certain transaction-specific information for each transaction made through Google Pay. This includes the date, time and amount of the transaction, merchant location and description, a description provided by the merchant of the goods or services purchased, photos you included with the transaction, the name and email address of the seller and buyer or sender and recipient, the payment method used, your description of the reason for the transaction, and the offer associated with the transaction, if any.
According to Google, this processing is carried out exclusively in accordance with Art. 6(1)(f) GDPR on the basis of the legitimate interest in proper billing, verification of transaction data and optimisation and functional maintenance of the Google Pay service.
Google also reserves the right to merge the processed transaction data with other information that is collected and stored by Google when using other Google services.

Online applications. Data protection information in the application process

We process the applicant data only for the purpose and within the scope of the application procedure in accordance with the legal requirements. Applicant data is processed to fulfil our (pre)contractual obligations within the scope of the application procedure in accordance with Art. 6(1)(b), Art. 6(1)(f) GDPR insofar as the data processing becomes necessary for us, e.g., within the scope of legal procedures.

The application procedure requires applicants to provide us with applicant data. The necessary applicant data are marked, if we offer an online form, otherwise necessary information is described in the job descriptions and basically include the personal details, postal and contact addresses and the documents belonging to the application, such as cover letter, curriculum vitae and the certificates. In addition, applicants may voluntarily provide us with additional information.

By submitting an application to us, applicants consent to the processing of their data for the purposes of the application process in the manner and to the extent set out in this privacy policy.

Insofar as special categories of personal data within the meaning of Art. 9(1) GDPR are voluntarily disclosed within the scope of the application procedure, their processing is additionally carried out in accordance with Art. 9(2)(b) GDPR (e.g. health data, such as severely disabled status or ethnic origin).

Insofar as special categories of personal data within the meaning of Art. 9(1) GDPR are requested from applicants as part of the application process, their processing is additionally carried out in accordance with Art. 9(2)(a) GDPR (e.g. health data, if this is necessary for the exercise of the profession).

If provided, applicants can submit their applications to us using an online form on our website. The data is transmitted to us in encrypted form. Applicants can also send us their applications by e-mail. Please note, however, that e-mails are generally not sent in encrypted form and applicants must ensure that they are encrypted themselves. We cannot therefore accept any responsibility for the transmission path of the application between the sender and receipt on our server and therefore recommend either using an online form or sending application by post.

In the event of a successful application, the data provided by the applicants may be processed by us for the purposes of the employment relationship. Otherwise, if the application for a job offer is unsuccessful, the applicants' data will be deleted. Applicants' data will also be deleted if an application is withdrawn, which applicants are entitled to do at any time.

Subject to a justified withdrawal by the applicant, the deletion will take place after the expiry of a period of six months so that we can answer any follow-up questions about the application and satisfy our obligations to provide evidence under the Equal Treatment Act. Invoices for any reimbursement of travel expenses will be archived in accordance with the requirements of tax law.
