In particular, an objection to data processing for direct marketing purposes is permissible.

III. Information on data processing

Your data processed when you use our website will be deleted or blocked as soon as the purpose of storage no longer applies, there are no legal retention obligations that prevent the deletion of the data and no other information is given below regarding individual processing procedures.

Cookies

a) Session cookies

We use so-called cookies on our website. Cookies are small text files or other storage technologies that are placed and stored on your device by the internet browser you use. These cookies process certain information about you on an individual basis, such as your browser or location data or your IP address.

This processing makes our website more user-friendly, effective and secure, as it enables, for example, the display of our website in different languages ​​or the provision of a shopping cart function.

The legal basis for this processing is Art. 6 (1) (b) GDPR, provided that these cookies process data for the purpose of initiating or executing a contract.

If the processing does not serve to initiate or execute a contract, our legitimate interest lies in improving the functionality of our website. The legal basis is Art. 6 (1) (f) GDPR.

When you close your internet browser, these session cookies are deleted.

b) Third-party cookies

Our website may also use cookies from partner companies with whom we work for the purposes of advertising, analysis or the functionality of our website.

For details, in particular regarding the purposes and legal basis for processing such third-party cookies, please see the information below.

c) Possibility of removal

You can prevent or restrict the installation of cookies by adjusting the settings in your Internet browser. You can also delete cookies that have already been saved at any time. The steps and measures required to do this depend on the specific Internet browser you are using. If you have any questions, please use the help function or documentation of your Internet browser or contact the manufacturer or support. In the case of so-called Flash cookies, however, the processing cannot be prevented via the browser settings. Instead, you must change the settings of your Flash player. The steps and measures required to do this also depend on the specific Flash player you are using. If you have any questions, please also use the help function or documentation of your Flash player or contact the manufacturer or user support.

However, if you prevent or restrict the installation of cookies, this may mean that not all functions of our website can be used to their full extent.

Customer account / registration function

If you create a customer account with us via our website, we will collect and store the data you entered during registration (e.g., your name, address, or email address) exclusively for pre-contractual services, for contract fulfillment, or for customer care purposes (e.g., to provide you with an overview of your previous orders with us or to offer you the so-called wish list function). At the same time, we will store your IP address and the date and time of your registration. This data will not be passed on to third parties.

As part of the registration process, your consent to this processing will be obtained and reference will be made to this privacy policy. The data we collect will be used exclusively to provide the customer account.

If you consent to this processing, Art. 6 (1) (a) GDPR is the legal basis for the processing.

If the opening of the customer account also serves pre-contractual measures or the fulfilment of the contract, the legal basis for this processing is also Art. 6 (1) (b) GDPR.

You may revoke your consent to open and maintain a customer account at any time with future effect in accordance with Art. 7 (3) GDPR. To do so, you simply need to notify us of your revocation.

The data collected in this way will be deleted as soon as processing is no longer necessary. However, we must observe retention periods under tax and commercial law.

User contributions, comments and ratings

We offer you the opportunity to publish questions, answers, opinions, or reviews, hereinafter referred to as "contributions," on our website. If you take advantage of this offer, we will process and publish your contribution, the date and time of submission, and any pseudonym you may use.

The legal basis for this is Art. 6 (1) (a) GDPR. You can revoke your consent at any time with future effect in accordance with Art. 7 (3) GDPR. To do so, you simply need to notify us of your revocation.

In addition, we also process your IP and email address. The IP address is processed because we have a legitimate interest in initiating or supporting further action if your contribution infringes on the rights of third parties and/or is otherwise unlawful.

The legal basis in this case is Art. 6 (1) (f) GDPR. Our legitimate interest lies in the necessary legal defense.

Social media linking via graphic or text link

We also promote our presence on the social networks listed below on our website. Integration is achieved via a linked graphic of the respective network. Using this linked graphic prevents a connection to the respective social network's server from being automatically established when accessing a website that has a social media advertisement in order to display a graphic from the respective network itself. Only by clicking on the corresponding graphic will the user be redirected to the respective social network's service.

After the user is redirected, information about the user is collected by the respective network. It cannot be ruled out that the data collected in this way will be processed in the USA.

This initially includes data such as IP address, date, time, and page visited. If the user is logged into their user account on the respective network during this time, the network operator may be able to assign the collected information from the specific user visit to the user's personal account. If the user interacts via a "Share" button on the respective network, this information may be stored in the user's personal user account and possibly published. If the user wishes to prevent the collected information from being directly assigned to their user account, they must log out before clicking on the graphic. It is also possible to configure the respective user account accordingly.
