What is it about?

This privacy policy meets the legal requirements for transparency in the processing of personal data. These are all pieces of information that relate to an identified or identifiable natural person. This includes information such as your name, age, address, phone number, date of birth, email address, IP address, or user behavior when visiting a website. Information for which we cannot establish a reference to your person (or only with disproportionate effort), such as through anonymization, is not considered personal data. The processing of personal data (such as collection, querying, use, storage, or transmission) always requires a legal basis and a defined purpose.

Stored personal data will be deleted as soon as the purpose of processing has been achieved, and there are no lawful reasons for further data retention. We will inform you in the individual processing operations about the specific storage periods or criteria for storage. Regardless, we may store your personal data in individual cases for the assertion, exercise, or defense of legal claims and in the presence of legal retention obligations.

Who receives my data?

We only disclose your personal data processed on our website to third parties if this is necessary to fulfill the purposes and is covered by the legal basis (e.g., consent or legitimate interests). In individual cases, we may also disclose personal data to third parties when it serves the assertion, exercise, or defense of legal claims. Possible recipients may include law enforcement agencies, lawyers, auditors, courts, etc.

If we use service providers for the operation of our website who process personal data on our behalf in the context of order processing in accordance with Art. 28 GDPR, these service providers may be recipients of your personal data. More information on the use of data processors and web services can be found in the overview of individual processing operations.

Do you use cookies?

Cookies are small text files that are sent by us to the browser of your end device during your visit to our websites and stored there. Alternatively, information can also be stored in the local storage of your browser instead of using cookies. Some functions of our website cannot be offered without the use of cookies or local storage (technically necessary cookies). Other cookies enable various analyses, allowing us, for example, to recognize the browser you are using when you revisit our website and to transmit various information to us (non-essential cookies). With the help of cookies, we can make our online offering more user-friendly and effective, for example, by tracking your use of our website and determining your preferred settings (e.g., country and language settings). If third parties process information through cookies, they collect the information directly through your browser. Cookies do not cause any damage to your end device. They cannot execute programs and do not contain viruses.

We provide information about the specific services for which we use cookies in the individual processing operations. Detailed information about the cookies used can be found in the cookie settings or the consent manager of this website. Unless otherwise stated below, the provision of your personal data is neither legally nor contractually required, nor is it necessary for the conclusion of a contract. You are not obligated to provide the data. Non-provision has no consequences. This only applies to the extent that no other information is provided in the following processing operations. "Personal data" refers to all information that relates to an identified or identifiable natural person.

The following information, among other things, can be collected: IP address, date and time of page access, click path, information about the browser and device used, pages visited, referrer URL (website from which you accessed our website), location data, purchase activity. The IP addresses transmitted by your browser as part of Google Analytics will not be consolidated with any other data held by Google. Google Analytics employs technologies such as cookies, web storage in the browser and tracking pixels, which permit an analysis of your use of the website. The resulting information regarding your use of this website is normally transferred to a Google server in the US and stored there. This website has IP anonymisation enabled. This allows your IP address to be truncated in advance by Google within member states of the European Union or in other states party to the Agreement on the European Economic Area.
