Data collection on our website

Cookies

Some of the Internet pages use so-called cookies. Cookies do not cause any damage on

your computer and do not contain viruses. Cookies are used to

make our offering more user-friendly, effective and secure. Cookies are

small text files that are stored on your computer and which your browser

saves.

Most of the cookies we use are so-called “session cookies”.

They are automatically deleted at the end of your visit. Other cookies remain

stored on your device until you delete them. These cookies enable

us to recognize your browser on your next visit.

You can set your browser so that you are informed about the setting of cookies

and only allow cookies in individual cases, exclude the acceptance of cookies

for certain cases or generally, as well as activate the automatic deletion of

cookies when closing the browser. When cookies are deactivated

, the functionality of this website may be limited.

Cookies that are required to carry out the electronic communication process or

to provide certain functions you want (e.g.

shopping cart function) are stored on the basis of Art. 6(1)(f)

GDPR. The website operator has a legitimate interest in the

storage of cookies for the technically error-free and optimized provision

of its services. Insofar as other cookies (e.g. cookies for analyzing your

surfing behaviour) are stored, these are treated separately in this privacy policy.

Server log files

The provider of the pages collects and stores information automatically in so

called server log files, which your browser automatically transmits to us.
This includes:

• Browser type and browser version

• operating system used

• referrer URL

• hostname of the accessing computer

• time of the server request

• IP address

A combination of these data with other data sources is not

carried out.

The basis for data processing is Art. 6(1)(f) GDPR, which permits the

processing of data for the performance of a contract or pre-contractual

measures.

Contact form

If you send us inquiries via the contact form, your

details from the inquiry form, including the contact details you provided there,

will be stored with us for the purpose of processing the inquiry and in the event of follow-up questions

. We do not pass on this data without your consent.

The processing of the data entered into the contact form therefore takes place

exclusively on the basis of your consent (Art. 6(1)(a) GDPR). You

can revoke this consent at any time. An informal message

by email to us is sufficient. The lawfulness of the data processing operations carried out up to revocation

remains unaffected by the revocation.

The data you enter in the contact form remain with us until you

request deletion, revoke your consent to storage or the

purpose for data storage no longer applies (e.g. after your inquiry has been fully processed).

Mandatory statutory provisions – in particular

retention periods – remain unaffected.

For security reasons and to protect the transmission

of confidential content, such as orders or inquiries that you send to us

as the site operator, this site uses SSL or TLS encryption with the current

encryption protocol TLS v1.2. You can recognize an encrypted connection

by the fact that the browser address line changes from “http://” to “https://” and by

the lock symbol in your browser line.

If SSL or TLS encryption is activated, the data you transmit to

us cannot be read by third parties.

Processing of data (customer and contract data)

We collect, process and use personal data only insofar as they are necessary for the

establishment, substantive design or amendment of the legal relationship

required (inventory data). This is based on Art. 6(1)(b)

GDPR, which permits the processing of data for the performance of a contract or

pre-contractual measures. Personal data about the

use of our internet pages (usage data) are collected, processed and

used by us only to the extent necessary to enable the user to use the

service or to bill for it.

The collected customer data will be deleted after completion of the order or termination

of the business relationship. Statutory retention periods remain

unaffected.

Analysis tools and advertising

Google Analytics

This website uses functions of the web analysis service Google Analytics. Provider

is Google Inc., 1600 Amphitheatre Parkway, Mountain View, CA 94043, USA.

Google Analytics uses so-called “cookies”. These are text files that are stored on

Economic Area before transmission to the USA. 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

on website activity and provide other services related to

website and internet use to the website operator. The IP address transmitted by your

browser within the scope of Google Analytics will not be merged with other data from Google

Data processing agreement

We have concluded a data processing agreement with Google and fully implement the strict requirements of the German data protection authorities when using Google Analytics.

Demographic characteristics in Google Analytics

This website uses the “demographic characteristics” function of Google Analytics.

This makes it possible to create reports containing statements about the age, gender and

interests of site visitors. These data come from interest-based advertising by Google as well as from visitor data from

third-party providers. These data cannot be assigned to any specific person.

You can deactivate this function at any time via the ad settings in your

Google account or generally prohibit the collection of your data by Google Analytics
