We appreciate your interest in our website. The protection of your personal data is very important to us. In this privacy policy we inform you about the most important aspects of data processing within our website.

Data collection and usage for the establishment of the contract and the opening of a customer account

We collect your personal information when you voluntarily provide it to us as part of your order, when contacting us (for example, through the use of our contact form or via e-mail) or when opening a customer account. The data collected is indicated on the respective forms. We use the information provided to establish the contract and process your inquiries. Upon conclusion of the contract or removal of your customer account, your data will be blocked from further use and erased from our system once the tax and commercial retention period has expired. We follow this procedure unless you have explicitly consented to the further use of your data or we legally reserve the right to further data usage, about which we inform you below. The removal of your customer account is possible at any time. This can be done by sending us a message via the contact option described below or by using the designated function within your customer account.

Data transfer for the contract

To be able to fulfill the contract requirements, we will pass your data on to the shipping company commissioned with the delivery, insofar as this is necessary for the delivery of the ordered goods. In order to process payments, we need to pass on the necessary data to the credit institution authorized with the payment and any payment service providers appointed by us or selected by you in the ordering process.

Data usage for E-mail advertising, excluding the newsletter registration, and your right to object.

Upon receipt of your e-mail address in connection with the sale of goods or services, we reserve the right to send you regular offers for similar products as those already purchased, on the condition that you have not objected to this. You may object to the usage of your e-mail address at any time by sending us a message via the contact option described below or by using a designated link in the e-mail we send. You will not incur any additional costs other than the base rate transmission costs. Upon conclusion of the shopping process, the data stored with us will be removed. In cases that include a contract, all data is stored until the tax retention period has expired (7 years). Please note that your name, address, the goods purchased and date of purchase are stored until the end of the product liability period (10 years). Data processing follows the legal regulations of §96 Abs. 3 TKG, as well as of Art. 6 Abs. 1 lit a (Consent) and / or lit b (necessary for the completion of a contract) of the DSGVO.
