§ 6 Use of our webshop

(1) If you wish to order from our online shop, it is necessary for the conclusion of the contract that you provide your personal data, which we need to process your order. Mandatory information required for contract processing is marked separately; further information is voluntary. We process the data you provide to process your order. For this purpose, we may pass on your payment details to our service providers for shipping or payment processing. The legal basis for this is Art. 6 (1) (b) GDPR.

When paying via PayPal, direct debit, credit card, purchase on account or installment payment (Powered by PayPal), we pass on your payment data to PayPal (Europe) Sarl et Cie, SCA, 22-24 Boulevard Royal, L-2449 Luxembourg as part of the payment processing.

PayPal reserves the right to conduct a credit check for the payment methods mentioned. For this purpose, your payment data may be passed on to credit agencies in accordance with Art. 6 (1) (f) GDPR on the basis of PayPal's legitimate interest in determining your ability to pay. PayPal uses the result of the credit check with regard to the statistical probability of default to decide whether to provide the respective payment method. The credit check may contain probability values (so-called score values). If score values are included in the result of the credit check, these are based on a scientifically recognized mathematical-statistical procedure. The calculation of the score values includes, but is not limited to, address data. Further data protection information, including information on the credit agencies used, can be found in PayPal's privacy policy: https://www.paypal.com/de/webapps/mpp/ua/privacy-full .

You can object to this processing of your data at any time by sending a message to PayPal. However, PayPal may still be entitled to process your personal data if this is necessary for contractual payment processing.

(2) We may also process the data you provide to inform you about other interesting products from our portfolio or to send you emails with technical information.

(3) Due to commercial and tax law requirements, we are obliged to store your address, payment and order data for a period of ten years.

(4) To prevent unauthorized access by third parties to your personal data, in particular financial data, the ordering process is encrypted.

§ 7 Newsletter

(1) With your consent, you can subscribe to our newsletter, with which we will inform you about our current interesting offers.

(2) We use the so-called double opt-in procedure to register for our newsletter. This means that after you register, we will send you an email to the email address you provided, asking you to confirm that you wish to receive the newsletter. If you do not confirm your registration within 24 hours, your information will be blocked and automatically deleted after one month. In addition, we store your IP addresses and the times of registration and confirmation. The purpose of this procedure is to verify your registration and, if necessary, to investigate any possible misuse of your personal data.

(3) The only mandatory information required to receive the newsletter is your email address. Providing additional, separately marked data is voluntary and will be used to address you personally. After your confirmation, we will save your email address for the purpose of sending you the newsletter. The legal basis is Art. 6 (1) (a) GDPR.

(4) You can revoke your consent to receive the newsletter at any time and unsubscribe from the newsletter. You can revoke your consent by clicking on the link provided in each newsletter email or by sending a message to the contact details provided in the imprint.

(5) We would like to point out that we evaluate your user behavior when sending the newsletter. For this evaluation, the emails sent contain so-called web beacons or tracking pixels, which are single-pixel image files stored on our website. For the evaluation, we link the data mentioned in Section 3 and the web beacons with your email address and an individual ID. The data is collected exclusively in pseudonymized form; the IDs are therefore not linked to your other personal data, and direct personal reference is excluded.

You can opt out of this tracking at any time by clicking on the separate link provided in each email or by contacting us via another method. The information will be stored for as long as you are subscribed to the newsletter. After unsubscribing, we store the data purely statistically and anonymously.
