Privacy Policy

Unless otherwise stated below, the provision of your personal data is neither legally nor contractually required, nor necessary for concluding a contract. You are not obliged to provide the data. Failure to provide it will have no consequences. This only applies if no other indication is made in the following processing operations.

"Personal data" means any information relating to an identified or identifiable natural person.

Server log files

You can visit our website without providing any personal information. Each time our website is accessed, usage data is transmitted by your internet browser and stored in log data (server log files). This stored data includes, for example, the name of the accessed page, date and time of access, amount of data transferred, and the requesting provider. This data is used exclusively to ensure smooth operation of our website and to improve our offer. It is not possible to assign this data to a specific person.

Collection and processing when using the contact form

When using the contact form, we collect your personal data (name, email address, message text) only to the extent provided by you. Data processing serves the purpose of contacting you. By sending your message, you consent to the processing of the transmitted data. Processing is based on Art. 6 (1) lit. a GDPR with your consent.

You can revoke your consent at any time by notifying us, without affecting the legality of the processing carried out on the basis of consent until revocation. Your email address will only be used to process your request. Your data will then be deleted unless you have agreed to further processing and use.

Use of Google reCAPTCHA

We use the reCAPTCHA service provided by Google Inc. (1600 Amphitheatre Parkway, Mountain View, CA 94043, USA; "Google") on our website. The query is used to distinguish whether the input is made by a human or by automated, machine processing. The query includes the transmission of the IP address and possibly other data required by Google for the reCAPTCHA service. For this purpose, your input is transmitted to Google and used there. However, your IP address will be shortened beforehand by Google within member states of the European Union or in other contracting states of the Agreement on the European Economic Area. Only in exceptional cases will the full IP address be transmitted to a Google server in the USA and shortened there.

On behalf of the operator of this website, Google will use this information to evaluate your use of this service. The IP address transmitted by your browser within the scope of reCAPTCHA will not be merged with other Google data. Your data may also be transferred to the USA. An adequacy decision of the European Commission exists for data transfers to the USA ("Privacy Shield"). By activating the query, you consent to the processing of your data. Processing is based on Art. 6 (1) lit. a GDPR with your consent. You can revoke your consent at any time.

Customer account

When opening a customer account, we collect your personal data to the extent specified there. Data processing serves the purpose of improving your shopping experience and simplifying order processing. Processing is based on Art. 6 (1) lit. a GDPR with your consent. You can revoke your consent at any time. Your customer account will then be deleted.

Collection, processing and use of personal data for orders

When placing an order, we collect and use your personal data only insofar as this is necessary for the fulfillment and processing of your order and for handling your inquiries. The provision of the data is necessary for concluding a contract. Failure to provide it will result in no contract being concluded. Processing is based on Art. 6 (1) lit. b GDPR.

Your data will not be passed on to third parties without your express consent, except to service partners required for contract processing (e.g. shipping providers, payment providers, IT services).

Use of email address for newsletters

We use your email address exclusively for our own advertising purposes for sending newsletters, provided you have expressly consented. Processing is based on Art. 6 (1) lit. a GDPR. You can unsubscribe at any time.

Data retention

After completion of the contract, data will initially be stored for the duration of the warranty period, then in accordance with legal retention periods, and then deleted.

Rights of the data subject
