Privacy policy

Unless otherwise stated below, the provision of your personal data is not required by law or contract, nor is it necessary for the conclusion of a contract. You are not obliged to provide the data. Non-provision of the data has no consequences. This applies only insofar as no other information is given in the following processing procedures.
"Personal data" means all information relating to an identified or identifiable natural person.

Customer account

When you open a customer account, we collect your personal data to the extent specified there. The data processing serves the purpose of improving your shopping experience and simplifying the order processing. The processing is based on Art. 6 (1) lit. a DSGVO with your consent. You may revoke your consent at any time by notifying us, without affecting the legality of the processing that has taken place on the basis of the consent until revocation. Your customer account will then be deleted.

Collection, processing and forwarding of personal data in connection with orders

When you place an order, we collect and process your personal data only to the extent necessary to fulfil and process your order and to deal with your enquiries. The provision of the data is necessary for the conclusion of the contract. Failure to provide the data means that no contract can be concluded. The processing is based on Art. 6 para. 1 lit. b DSGVO and is necessary for the fulfilment of a contract with you.
Your data will be passed on, for example, to mail-order companies, payment service providers, service providers for order processing and IT service providers. In all cases we strictly observe the legal requirements. The extent of the data transfer is limited to a minimum.

Using YouTube

We use on our website the function for embedding YouTube videos from YouTube LLC. (901 Cherry Ave., San Bruno, CA 94066, USA; "YouTube").
YouTube is a joint venture with Google Inc. (1600 Amphitheatre Parkway, Mountain View, CA 94043, USA; "Google").
The function displays videos stored on YouTube in an iFrame on the website. The option "Advanced Privacy Mode" is activated. This means that YouTube does not store any information about the visitors to the website. Only when you watch a video is information about it sent to YouTube and stored there.
For more information about YouTube's and Google's collection and use of this information, your rights and ways to protect your privacy, please see the YouTube privacy policy (https://www.youtube.com/t/privacy).

Duration of storage

After complete contract implementation, the data will be stored initially for the duration of the warranty period, thereafter taking into account statutory, in particular tax and commercial law retention periods, and then deleted after expiry of the period, unless you have consented to further processing and use.

Rights of the person concerned

If the legal requirements are met, you are entitled to the following rights in accordance with Art. 15 to 20 DSGVO: right to information, to correction, to deletion, to restriction of processing, to data transferability.
Furthermore, according to Art. 21 (1) DSGVO, you have the right to object to processing based on Art. 6 (1) f DSGVO, as well as to processing for the purpose of direct advertising.

Please contact us on request. The contact details can be found in our imprint.

Right of appeal to the supervisory authority

You have the right to complain to the supervisory authority under Art. 77 DSGVO if you believe that your personal data are being processed unlawfully.

Right of objection

If the personal data processing activities listed here are based on our legitimate interest pursuant to Art. 6 Par. 1 letter f DSGVO, you have the right to object to these processing activities at any time with effect for the future for reasons arising from your particular situation.
After the objection has been made, the processing of the data concerned will be terminated unless we can prove compelling reasons for processing worthy of protection which outweigh your interests, rights and freedoms, or if the processing serves the assertion, exercise or defence of legal claims.

If personal data are processed for the purposes of direct advertising, you can object to this processing at any time by notifying us. Once you have done so, we will stop processing the data concerned for the purposes of direct marketing.
