Right to data portability


You have the right to have data that we process automatically based on your consent or in fulfillment of a contract handed over to you or to third parties. This will be provided in a machine-readable format. If you request the direct transfer of the data to another controller, this will only be done if technically feasible.


Right to information, correction, blocking, deletion


Within the scope of applicable law, you have the right at any time to obtain free information about your stored personal data, its origin, its recipients, and the purpose of data processing, as well as, if applicable, the right to correct, block, or delete this data. You can contact us at any time regarding this and other questions regarding personal data using the contact options listed in the legal notice.


SSL or TLS encryption


For security reasons and to protect the transmission of confidential content that you send to us as the website operator, our website uses SSL or TLS encryption. This ensures that data you transmit via this website cannot be read by third parties. You can recognize an encrypted connection by the "https://" address bar in your browser and the lock symbol in the browser bar.

Data transmission when concluding a contract for the purchase and dispatch of goods


Personal data will only be transferred to third parties if necessary for contract processing. Third parties may include, for example, payment service providers or logistics companies. Further transfer of data will not occur, unless you have expressly consented to it.

Contact form

Data submitted via the contact form, including your contact details, will be stored in order to process your request or to answer any follow-up questions. This data will not be shared without your consent.


The data entered into the contact form will be processed exclusively on the basis of your consent (Art. 6 (1) (a) GDPR). You can revoke your previously granted consent at any time.

Cookies


Our website uses cookies. These are small text files that your web browser stores on your device. Cookies help us make our service more user-friendly, effective, and secure.


Some cookies are "session cookies." These cookies are automatically deleted after your browser session. Other cookies, however, remain on your device until you delete them. These cookies help us recognize you when you return to our website.


With a modern web browser, you can monitor, restrict, or prevent cookies from being set. Many web browsers can be configured to automatically delete cookies when you close the program. Disabling cookies may result in limited functionality on our website.


Cookies necessary for electronic communication or the provision of certain functions you request (e.g., shopping cart) are set on the basis of Art. 6 (1) (f) GDPR. As the operator of this website, we have a legitimate interest in storing cookies to ensure the technically error-free and smooth provision of our services. If other cookies are set (e.g., for analysis functions), these will be treated separately in this privacy policy.


Google Analytics


Our website uses features of the web analytics service Google Analytics. The provider of this web analytics service is Google Inc., 1600 Amphitheatre Parkway, Mountain View, CA 94043, USA.


Google Analytics uses "cookies." These are small text files that your web browser stores on your device and enable an analysis of website usage. Information generated by cookies about your use of our website is transmitted to a Google server and stored there. The server location is usually in the USA.


Google Analytics cookies are set on the basis of Art. 6 (1) (f) GDPR. As the operator of this website, we have a legitimate interest in analyzing user behavior in order to optimize our website and, where applicable, our advertising.


IP anonymization


We use Google Analytics in conjunction with the IP anonymization function. This ensures that Google shortens your IP address within member states of the European Union or in other contracting states to the Agreement on the European Economic Area before transmitting it to the USA. In exceptional cases, Google transmits the full IP address to a server in the USA and shortens it there. On our behalf, Google will use this information to evaluate your use of the website, to compile reports on website activity and to provide us with other services relating to website activity and internet usage. The IP address transmitted by Google Analytics will not be merged with other Google data.


Browser Plugin


You can prevent cookies from being set by your web browser. However, doing so may limit some features of our website. You can also prevent Google from collecting data relating to your website usage, including your IP address, and subsequently processing this data. You can do this by downloading and installing the browser plug-in available at the following link: https://tools.google.com/dlpage/gaoptout?hl=de.


Objection to data collection


You can prevent Google Analytics from collecting your data by clicking the following link. This will set an opt-out cookie that prevents the collection of your data on future visits to our website: Disable Google Analytics.

For details on how Google Analytics handles user data, please see Google’s privacy policy: https://support.google.com/analytics/answer/6004245?hl=de.


Order processing

In order to fully comply with the statutory data protection requirements, we have concluded a contract with Google for order processing.


Demographic characteristics in Google Analytics


Our website uses the "demographics" feature of Google Analytics. This feature allows us to create reports containing information about the age, gender, and interests of site visitors. This data comes from interest-based advertising from Google as well as visitor data from third-party providers. It is not possible to assign the data to a specific person. You can deactivate this feature at any time. You can do this via the ad settings in your Google Account or by generally prohibiting the collection of your data by Google Analytics, as explained in the "Objection to data collection" section.


Amazon Affiliate Program


As the operator of this website, we participate in the Amazon EU Affiliate Program. Our pages contain Amazon advertisements and links to Amazon to earn advertising fees. Amazon cookies are used, allowing Amazon to recognize that you have clicked on an affiliate link on our website.


The storage of "Amazon cookies" is based on Art. 6 (f) GDPR. As a website operator, we have a legitimate interest in this, since only through cookies can the amount of advertising cost reimbursement be determined.


Details on Amazon’s data usage can be found in the Amazon Privacy Policy: https://www.amazon.de/gp/help/customer/display.html/ref=footer_privacy?ie=UTF8&nodeId=3312401.


Google AdSense


Our website uses Google AdSense, a service provided by Google Inc., 1600 Amphitheatre Parkway, Mountain View, CA 94043, USA.


Google AdSense is used to integrate advertisements and uses cookies. Cookies are small text files that your web browser stores on your device to analyze website usage. Google AdSense also uses web beacons. Web beacons are invisible graphics that enable analysis of visitor traffic on our website.


The information generated by cookies and web beacons is transmitted to and stored by Google on servers in the United States. Google may transfer this information to third-party contractors. However, Google will not combine your IP address with any other data stored about you.


AdSense cookies are stored on the basis of Art. 6 (1) (f) GDPR. As website operators, we have a legitimate interest in analyzing user behavior in order to optimize our website and our advertising.

Google AdWords and Google Conversion Tracking


Our website uses Google AdWords, a service provided by Google Inc., 1600 Amphitheatre Parkway, Mountain View, CA 94043, United States.


AdWords is an online advertising program. As part of this online advertising program, we use conversion tracking. After you click on an ad placed by Google, a cookie is set for conversion tracking. Cookies are small text files that your web browser stores on your device. Google AdWords cookies expire after 30 days and are not used to personally identify users. The cookie allows Google and us to recognize that you clicked on an ad and were redirected to our website.


Each Google AdWords customer receives a different cookie. These cookies cannot be tracked across AdWords customer websites. Conversion cookies are used to generate conversion statistics for AdWords customers who use conversion tracking. AdWords customers learn how many users clicked on their ad and were redirected to pages with a conversion tracking tag. However, AdWords customers do not receive any information that allows users to be personally identified. If you do not wish to participate in tracking, you can opt out. To do so, the conversion cookie must be deactivated in your browser's user settings. This way, your data will not be included in the conversion tracking statistics.


Conversion cookies are stored on the basis of Art. 6 (1) (f) GDPR. As website operators, we have a legitimate interest in analyzing user behavior in order to optimize our website and our advertising.


For details on Google AdWords and Google Conversion Tracking, please see Google’s privacy policy: https://www.google.de/policies/privacy/.

Google Web Fonts


Our website uses web fonts from Google. The provider is Google Inc., 1600 Amphitheatre Parkway, Mountain View, CA 94043, USA.


By using these web fonts, we can present you with the desired display of our website, regardless of which fonts are available to you locally. This is done by retrieving the Google Web Fonts from a Google server in the USA and the associated transfer of your data to Google. This includes your IP address and which page you visited on our site. The use of Google Web Fonts is based on Art. 6 (1) (f) GDPR. As the operator of this website, we have a legitimate interest in the optimal display and transmission of our website.


Google is certified under the US-European Privacy Shield Framework. This framework is designed to ensure compliance with the level of data protection applicable in the EU.
