Data protection
Privacy Policy
We appreciate your interest in our online shop. Protecting your privacy is very important to us. Below, we provide detailed information about how we handle your data.
You can visit our websites without providing any personal information. Each time a webpage is accessed, the web server automatically saves a so-called server log file, which contains, for example, the name of the requested file, your IP address, the date and time of access, the amount of data transferred, and the requesting provider (access data), and documents the access.
This access data is evaluated solely for the purpose of ensuring the smooth operation of the website and improving our services. This serves our legitimate interests, which, in accordance with Art. 6 Para. 1 Sentence 1 lit. f GDPR, override any conflicting interests, in ensuring the correct presentation of our services. All access data is deleted no later than seven days after the end of your visit to the website.
Hosting services provided by a third-party provider
As part of processing on our behalf, a third-party provider hosts and displays our website. This serves our legitimate interest in the correct presentation of our offerings, which outweighs any conflicting interests. All data collected through the use of this website or via forms provided in the online shop, as described below, is processed on their servers. Processing on other servers only takes place within the scope described herein.
This service provider is located within a country of the European Union or the European Economic Area.
We collect personal data when you voluntarily provide it to us in connection with your order, when contacting us (e.g., via contact form or email), or when opening a customer account. Required fields are marked as such because we absolutely need this data to process your order, your inquiry, or to open your customer account. Without this information, you cannot complete your order, open an account, or send your inquiry. The specific data collected is evident from the respective input forms. We use the data you provide in accordance with Article 6 Paragraph 1 Sentence 1 Letter b of the GDPR for contract processing and handling your inquiries. After complete contract fulfillment or deletion of your customer account, your data will be restricted from further processing and deleted after the statutory retention periods under tax and commercial law have expired, unless you have expressly consented to further use of your data or we reserve the right to use your data beyond this scope, which is permitted by law and about which we inform you in this privacy policy. You can delete your customer account at any time, either by sending a message to the contact option described below or via a designated function in your customer account.
For the purpose of fulfilling the contract pursuant to Art. 6 para. 1 sentence 1 lit. b GDPR, we will forward your data to the shipping company commissioned with the delivery, insofar as this is necessary for the delivery of ordered goods. Depending on which payment service provider you select during the ordering process, we will forward the payment data collected for this purpose to the bank commissioned with processing the payment and, if applicable, to payment service providers commissioned by us, or to the selected payment service. In some cases, the selected payment service providers also collect this data themselves if you create an account with them. In this case, you must log in to the payment service provider with your access data during the ordering process. The data protection policy of the respective payment service provider applies in this respect.
Data transfer to shipping service providers
If you have given us your express consent during or after your order, we will, on the basis of this consent and in accordance with Art. 6 para. 1 sentence 1 lit. a GDPR, forward your email address to the selected shipping service provider so that they can contact you before delivery for the purpose of delivery notification or coordination.

Use of Facebook social plugins
Our website uses so-called social plugins (“plugins”) from social networks.

The plugin's content is transmitted directly from the respective provider to your browser and integrated into the page. By integrating the plugins, the providers receive information that your browser has accessed the corresponding page of our website, even if you do not have a profile or are not currently logged in. This information (including your IP address) is transmitted directly from your browser to a server of the respective provider (possibly in the USA) and stored there. If you are logged into one of these services, the providers can directly associate your visit to our website with your profile on the respective social network. If you interact with the plugins, for example, by clicking the "Like" or "Share" button, the corresponding information is also transmitted directly to a server of the provider and stored there. The information is also published on the social network and displayed to your contacts. This serves to protect our overriding legitimate interests in the optimal marketing of our offer in accordance with Art. 6 para. 1 sentence 1 lit. f GDPR.
