1. Data Collection on Website Visit

When you visit our website without registering or providing personal information, we collect only the data sent by your browser to our server, known as "server log files". This data, essential for displaying the website to you, includes:

  • The specific pages of our site that you visit
  • Date and time of access
  • Amount of data sent in bytes
  • Referrer URL (the site from which you came to ours)
  • Browser type and version
  • Operating system used
  • IP address (potentially in anonymized form)

This data is processed based on Art. 6 (1) (f) GDPR, reflecting our legitimate interest in improving website stability and functionality. This data is not shared or used for other purposes, though we may review server logs if illegal activity is suspected.

2. Cookies

To enhance site functionality and user experience, we deploy cookies (small text files stored on your device). Session cookies are deleted after you close your browser, while persistent cookies remain to recognize your browser on subsequent visits. These cookies process information such as browser and location data, and IP addresses, and are set to expire after a specific period. For detailed durations, please refer to your browser's cookie settings.

Cookies also support site navigation and the ordering process, storing settings like the contents of your virtual shopping cart. Processing personal data through cookies is conducted under Art. 6 (1) (b) for contractual purposes or Art. 6 (1) (f) GDPR for optimizing website functionality and user experience.

You can configure your browser to be informed about the setting of cookies and decide individually on their acceptance or reject cookies entirely. You can find these for the respective browser under the following links:

3. Contacting Us

Personal data is collected when you contact us via email. The data collected is evident from the contact form and is solely used to respond to your inquiry, based on Art. 6 (1) (f) GDPR or, if contacting us about a contract, Art. 6 (1) (b) GDPR. Data is deleted once your query is conclusively answered, provided no legal obligations to retain data apply.

4. Data Processing for Account Management and Contract Execution

Under Art. 6 (1) (b) GDPR, we collect and process personal data for contract execution or account setup as detailed in the input forms. Account deletion can be requested at any time and is done by contacting the address provided. Data necessary for contract execution is retained under legal obligations and deleted thereafter unless you consent to further use or we legally retain and process the data.

5. Utilization of Customer Data for Direct Marketing

Newsletter Subscription

When you sign up for our email newsletter, we periodically send you information about our promotions. Your email address is the only required information for subscription, while providing additional details is optional and allows us to address you personally. We employ a double opt-in procedure for newsletter subscription, meaning we will only start sending you newsletters once you explicitly confirm your consent through a confirmation email that requires you to click a link to finalize your subscription.

Activating the confirmation link indicates your consent to our processing of your personal data as stipulated in Article 6(1)(a) of the GDPR. We record your IP address and the date and time of your registration to prevent any potential misuse of your email address. The information we gather is solely used to send the newsletter. You can unsubscribe at any time via a link in the newsletter or by contacting us directly. Once you unsubscribe, we will immediately remove your email address from our mailing list unless you have explicitly agreed to further use of your data, or we are legally entitled to retain and use your data, which will be explicitly stated in our policy.

Email Newsletters to Existing Customers

If you have provided us with your email address when purchasing goods or services, we may send you emails about similar products or services from our catalog. Under Section 7(3) UWG, we do not require separate consent to send these communications. The data processing is based on our legitimate interest in personalized direct advertising, as per Article 6(1)(f) GDPR. If you initially objected to the use of your email for this purpose, we will not send you any promotional emails. You may at any time opt-out of receiving marketing emails in the future by contacting us as outlined above. Any costs incurred will be at basic tariff rates. Upon receiving your objection, we will cease to use your email for marketing purposes immediately.

6. Data Subject Rights

As a user of our website, you are granted comprehensive rights under data protection laws regarding the processing of your personal data by the responsible entity, which we outline as follows:

Rights Under GDPR

  • Right to Access (Art. 15 GDPR): You have the right to obtain confirmation about whether we process your personal data and, where that is the case, access to the personal data, including the purposes of processing, the categories of data processed, recipients to whom the data have been or will be disclosed, planned retention period, and the criteria used to determine that period.
  • Right to Rectification (Art. 16 GDPR): You can have incorrect personal data corrected or incomplete data completed.
  • Right to Erasure (Art. 17 GDPR): You may request the deletion of your personal data, subject to certain exceptions such as the necessity of data for compliance with a legal obligation or for the establishment, exercise, or defense of legal claims.
  • Right to Restrict Processing (Art. 18 GDPR): You may request the restriction of processing your personal data under certain conditions, such as if the accuracy of the data is contested or the processing is unlawful.
  • Right to Notification (Art. 19 GDPR): If you have exercised your right to have personal data corrected, deleted, or restricted, the controller is required to notify each recipient to whom the personal data have been disclosed unless this proves impossible or involves disproportionate effort.
  • Right to Data Portability (Art. 20 GDPR): You have the right to receive the personal data concerning you in a structured, commonly used, and machine-readable format, and have the right to transmit those data to another controller.
  • Right to Withdraw Consent (Art. 7(3) GDPR): You have the right to withdraw consent at any time. The withdrawal of consent shall not affect the lawfulness of processing based on consent before its withdrawal.
  • Right to Lodge a Complaint (Art. 77 GDPR): If you believe that the processing of your personal data infringes the GDPR, you have the right to lodge a complaint with a supervisory authority.

Right to Object

General Right to Object: You have the right to object at any time to processing of your personal data based on legitimate interests, including profiling. If you object, we will no longer process your personal data unless we demonstrate compelling legitimate grounds for the processing.

Direct Marketing: You have the specific right to object to the processing of your personal data for direct marketing purposes at any time. If you object to processing for direct marketing purposes, we will stop processing your personal data for these purposes.

7. Data Retention Duration

The retention period for personal data is determined by the relevant legal basis for processing, the purpose of processing, and - where applicable - additionally by the statutory retention periods (e.g., commercial and tax-related retention periods).

Data processed on the basis of your consent is retained until such consent is withdrawn. Data necessary for contract execution or to fulfill legal obligations may be retained as required by applicable law. Where data processing is based on legitimate interests, data is retained as long as necessary to fulfill the purpose of processing unless you exercise your right to object.

These rights ensure that you have significant control over your personal data and the manner in which it is handled. If you have further inquiries or need more detailed explanations regarding your rights, please contact us at the provided details.
