Privacy protection

You can visit our websites without providing any information about yourself. Every time a website is accessed, the web server only automatically stores a so-called server log file, which contains, for example, the name of the requested file, your IP address, date and time of access, the amount of data transferred and the requesting provider (access data) and documents the access. These access data are evaluated exclusively for the purpose of ensuring trouble-free operation of the site and improving our offer. This serves to safeguard our legitimate interests, which outweigh the legitimate interests in the context of a balancing of interests, in a correct presentation of our offer in accordance with Art. 6 (1) sentence 1 lit. f GDPR. All access data will be deleted no later than one month after the end of your visit to the site.

The services for hosting and displaying the website are partly provided by our service providers as part of processing on our behalf. Unless otherwise explained in this privacy policy, all access data and all data collected in the forms provided for this purpose on this website are processed on its servers. If you have any questions about our service providers and the basis of our cooperation with them, please contact us using the contact details described in this Privacy Policy.

We collect personal data if you voluntarily provide it to us as part of your order or when contacting us (e.g. via contact form or e-mail). Mandatory fields are marked as such, as in these cases we absolutely need the data to process the contract or to process your contact and you cannot complete the order or send the contact without providing it. The data collected can be seen from the respective input forms. We use the data provided by you to process the contract and process your inquiries (including inquiries about and processing any warranty and service disruption claims as well as any statutory update obligations) in accordance with Art. 6 (1) sentence 1 (b) GDPR. 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 executed, your data will be restricted for further processing and deleted after the expiry of any retention periods under tax and commercial law in accordance with Art. 6 (1) sentence 1 (c) GDPR, unless you have expressly consented to further use of your data in accordance with Art. 6 (1) sentence 1 (a) GDPR or we reserve the right to use your data beyond this, which is permitted by law and which we inform you about in this Notice.

In the context of customer communication, we collect personal data in order to process your inquiries in accordance with Art. 6 (1) sentence 1 (b) GDPR if you voluntarily provide this to us when contacting us (e.g. via contact form or e-mail). Mandatory fields are marked as such, as in these cases we absolutely need the data to process your contact. The data collected can be seen from the respective input forms. After your request has been fully processed, your data will be deleted, unless you have expressly consented to further use of your data in accordance with Art. 6 (1) sentence 1 (a) GDPR or we reserve the right to use data beyond this that is permitted by law and about which we inform you in this statement.

In order to fulfil the contract in accordance with Art. 6 (1) sentence 1 (b) GDPR, we pass on your data to the shipping service provider commissioned with the delivery, insofar as this is necessary for the delivery of ordered goods.
