Privacy Policy

Thank you for your interest in our website. The protection of your privacy is very important to us. Below we inform you in detail about how we handle your data.

1. ACCESS DATA & HOSTING

You can visit our website without providing any personal information. Each time a website is accessed, the web server automatically saves a server log file, which may contain the name of the requested file, your IP address, the date and time of access, the amount of data transferred, and the requesting provider (access data), documenting the access.

This access data is evaluated exclusively to ensure trouble-free operation of the site and to improve our services, in accordance with Art. 6(1)(f) GDPR. All access data is deleted no later than seven days after your visit.

2. THIRD PARTY HOSTING SERVICES

A third-party provider provides hosting and presentation services on our behalf. All data collected via this website is processed on their servers within the European Union or the European Economic Area.

3. DATA COLLECTION AND USE FOR CONTACT PROCESSING, CONTACTING, AND OPENING A CUSTOMER ACCOUNT

We collect personal data if you voluntarily provide it to us as part of your order or when contacting us (e.g., via contact form or email). Mandatory fields are marked as such. We use the data you provide for contract processing and handling your inquiries, in accordance with Art. 6(1)(b) GDPR.

If you consent to opening a customer account (Art. 6(1)(a) GDPR), we use your data to create and manage your account. After completion of the contract or deletion of your customer account, your data will be restricted for further processing and deleted after the tax and commercial retention periods, unless you have expressly consented to further use of your data or we are legally required to retain it.

4. DATA TRANSFER

To fulfill the contract (Art. 6(1)(b) GDPR), we pass on your data to the shipping company responsible for delivery and to the payment service provider responsible for payment processing. Some payment service providers also collect data themselves if you create an account with them. In this case, you must log in to the payment service provider with your access data during the ordering process.

We also use an external ERP system for order and contract processing. The data transfer or processing is based on order processing.

We use payment service providers and shipping service providers based outside the European Union. The transfer of personal data to these companies only occurs within the scope necessary to fulfill the contract.

5. DATA TRANSFER TO THIRD PARTY PROVIDERS

If you have given us your express consent (Art. 6(1)(a) GDPR), we may forward your email address and telephone number to the selected shipping service provider for delivery notification or coordination.
