  • the browser you are using and, if applicable, the operating system of your Internet-capable computer as well as the name of your access provider to our server and temporarily stored by us.
    The legal basis for such processing is provided for in Article 6(1)(f) of the GDPR. 

The legitimate interest is for the following purposes:

  • Optimization of the connection setup,
  • Ensuring and optimizing the user-friendliness and handling of our website,

Our website uses cookies, tracking tools and targeting procedures. These tools and procedures are described in more detail below.

3. Data processing during registration

It is possible to register as a customer. A password-protected customer account will be created. The data involved is shown in the input mask that is filled in during registration. This data is used exclusively for internal permanent storage of your personal data in a password-protected customer account.
The IP address, date and time of registration are stored. The legal basis for this data processing is Art. 6 paragraph 1 letter b) GDPR.

4. Data processing during the process of ordering

Data processing within the context of purchase orders serves to process all processes within the order. The legal basis for this is Article 6 paragraph 1 letter b) GDPR. The data involved can be seen from the input mask that you fill in when placing your order. The following data processing is required to process the purchase contract:
Your e-mail address will be used for electronic communication about your order and its processing. The legal basis for such processing is provided for in Article 6(1)(c) of the GDPR. In order to fulfil the contractual obligations, the order data is transmitted to the upstream supplier and, if applicable, to his transport company, who will deliver the goods or provide the booked services, and made available for use of the data for this purpose. The legal basis for such processing is provided for in Article 6(1)(b) of the GDPR. For the fulfilment of the contract it may be necessary for the data to be forwarded to our payment service provider or to the commissioned credit institution. This depends on the selected payment method.

The following payment methods can be used:

  • Prepayment
  • credit card

For the delivery of the goods, however, a passing on of your address data to our parcel service providers (DHL, FedEx, UPS) is necessary.
They are obliged to treat your data confidentially and to use it exclusively for the purpose of delivery. FedEx and UPS process the address data on servers located in the USA.
Your payment data will be passed on to the commissioned credit institution for payment processing.
Credit card data is not processed by us but by 1&1 iPayment and PayOne. Any further passing on of personal customer data to third parties does not take place.
However, we are authorised to provide the responsible authorities with information about your data in individual cases,
insofar as they request your data for the purpose of fulfilling their legal powers (e.g. criminal law enforcement).

5. Further data processing

Furthermore, data is collected and stored which you yourself explicitly communicate to us. For example, for individual customer contact by e-mail, telephone or in the online shop, if you use the option to enter data (e.g. during login registration). The data that is intended for collection will be communicated to you before the respective process, if this does not result from the type of the pending process (e.g. name and password for login registration or in the "User data" mask: telephone and e-mail).

Furthermore, use data is collected which you submit when using the platform (article searches that have been carried out) and/or which the respective Internet provider provides when using the platform (including the IP address of your computer) and/or generates via e-tracking.
Usage data can contain personal or company-related data or allow conclusions to be drawn about them.

Without your registration or without your login, anonymous user data, such as which browser type and operating system you use and which pages you have visited on the website, are transmitted by your browser when you access the platform. The data collected is not used to identify you or your company. The use data is automatically stored in server log files. These are used to make the handling of the platform functions more attractive and to ensure and improve their performance. This represents a legitimate interest for us and is therefore based on the legal basis of Art. 6 paragraph 1 letter f) GDPR.

6. Data processing for advertising purposes

We do not send advertising.

7. Newsletter

The following section documents the contents of the newsletter and informs you about the options for subscribing and unsubscribing, as well as the implementation of the newsletter dispatch and the evaluation procedures. By subscribing to the newsletter, you agree to the procedures documented here.

Contents of our newsletter: Our newsletters contain information on products and events, as well as offers and thus promotional information - the newsletter is sent exclusively by e-mail.

Double registration confirmation: Using the double opt-in procedure, an e-mail will be sent to you after you have subscribed to the newsletter in which you will be asked whether you confirm your subscription to the newsletter. This procedure ensures that you really are the owner of the e-mail address you entered. In order to comply with legal requirements, your registration will be logged, i.e. the time of registration and confirmation and the IP address will be saved.

Registration data: For the registration to our newsletter the information of your e-mail address is sufficient. You can also enter your name for the purpose of personal salutation.

The success of the newsletter is measured on the basis of the recipient's consent pursuant to Art.6 para.1 lit. a, Art.7 DSGVO in conjunction with § 7 para.2 no. 3 UWG. If consent is not required, both are done on the basis of our legitimate interest in direct marketing pursuant to Art. 6 Para. 1 lt. f. DSGVO in connection with § 7 Abs.3 UWG - as well as the logging of the registration process according to Art.6 Abs. 1 lt. f. DSGVO. It is in our interest to operate a standard newsletter system that enables us to provide proof of consent and that meets the expectations of subscribers and our business interests.

Cancellation or revocation: Every subscriber is free to cancel the subscription at any time, i.e. to revoke his consent. As a subscriber, you will find an appropriate link to cancel your subscription to our newsletter at the end of each newsletter. Due to our legitimate interest, we can store the e-mail addresses deleted in this case for up to three years before they are deleted. This is necessary to prove the previously declared consent and is only done for the purpose of possible defense against claims.

Newsletter - Mailchimp

We use the service provider "MailChimp" from the US provider Rocket Science Group (LLC, 675 Ponce De Leon Ave NE #5000, Atlanta, GA 30308, USA) to send and manage our newsletter. MailChimp makes its privacy policy available for inspection here: https://mailchimp.com/legal/privacy/. The service provider is certified according to the Privacy Shield Agreement and guarantees to comply with the European data protection level (https://www.privacyshield.gov/participant?id=a2zt0000000TO6hAAG&status=Active). We use the service MailChimps on the basis of our legitimate interest according to Art.6 para.1 lit. f. DSGVO and an order processing contract according to Art.28 para.3 sentence 1 DSGVO.

MailChimp is entitled to use data of the subscribers in pseudonymous form (without assignment to a user, for the development of the offered services - including technical and statistical aspects). MailChimp will not pass on any data to third parties or contact newsletter subscribers independently.

Newsletter - Measurement of success

The success of the newsletter is measured by the use of a so-called "web beacon". This is a very small file which is downloaded from the server of our e-mailing-service when the newsletter is opened. For technical improvement, information on the browser and system used, the IP address and the time of retrieval are recorded.

In order to be able to respond to the reading habits and interests of our subscribers, statistical surveys also include whether and when the newsletter was opened and which links were clicked. Although it is possible to assign this information to individual newsletter recipients due to technical circumstances, this is neither our aim nor that of our dispatch service provider.

It is not possible to contradict the measurement of success independently of newsletter subscription, only the cancellation of the newsletter subscription would be available for this.

Collection of access data and log files

We, and/or our hosting provider, raise on basis of our legitimate interests in the sense of Art. 6 para. 1 lit. f. DSGVO data on each access to the server on which this service is located (so-called server log files). The access data includes the name of the website accessed, file, date and time of access, amount of data transferred, notification of successful access, browser type and version, the user's operating system, referrer URL (the previously visited page), IP address and the requesting provider.

Log file information is stored for security reasons (e.g. to clarify abuse or fraud actions) for a maximum period of 7 days and then deleted. Data, the further storage of which is necessary for evidence purposes, are excluded from deletion until the respective incident has been finally clarified.
