Information about data protection

This privacy policy explains how we process personal data. We are very aware of how important the processing of personal data is to the users involved (data subjects). Therefore, we adhere strictly to all relevant legal requirements. Protecting your privacy is a top priority for us. We consider compliance with the statutory regulations on data privacy to be a matter of course.

Data collection and storage

You can visit our websites without providing personal information. We store only access data in so-called server log files, such as the name of the requested file, date and time of access, transferred data volumes and the requesting provider. These data are analysed exclusively to ensure uninterrupted operation of the website and to improve our service. They cannot be traced in any way to specific individuals.

We collect and process the following personal data about you:

  • Contact information, including your e-mail address
  • Your bank account details
  • Online identifiers

What are online identifiers? Whenever you visit a website, your web browser sends basic information (for example, about your browser type and version, the operating system you are using, the referrer URL, IP address, file names, access status, transferred data volumes, date and time of the server request). These are known as online identifiers.

We may share your personal information, including your name, address, email address, as well as a record of any transactions you conduct on our website or offline with us with a third-party advertising partner and its service providers in order to deliver to you banner advertisements and other advertising tailored to your interests when you visit certain websites. Our advertising partner will make the data we provide it pseudonymous.

Purpose

We collect, store and process your personal data whenever you voluntarily provide them to us when placing an order or contacting us. This applies to

  • the entire handling of your purchase, including any later warranty claims,
  • the technical administration of our services,
  • own marketing purposes,
  • our internal statistical analyses,
  • information necessary for sending our newsletter.

Legal basis

The processing of your data takes place on the following legal basis:

  • your consent (art. 6 (1a) of the GDPR)

  • legitimate interests (art. 6(1f) of the GDPR), specifically for the improvement of our services, protection against misuse and for statistical purposes.

Data recipients and transfer of data to third-party countries

To execute our contract with you, we transfer your data to contracted service providers insofar as necessary for the handling of your order and delivery of your products. Your personal data can only be transferred or otherwise communicated to third parties located outside the EU if this is necessary for the purposes of billing or carrying out the contract. Transfer of data to third-parties outside the EU does occur. The transfer of data to third-party countries outside the European Union takes place on the basis of legally regulated contractual provisions intended to ensure appropriate protection of your data. You may inspect these provisions upon request.

Data transferred in this way can only be used by our service providers to perform their tasks. Any other use of the data is not allowed and does not occur with any of our trusted service providers.

We receive the data from you (including data about the device(s) you are using).

  • We will only use your data on grounds of a legitimate interest to the extent that our legitimate interest is not outweighed by your interest in deletion or anonymisation of the data.
