Thank you for visiting our online shop. Protection of your privacy is very important to us. Below you will find extensive information about how we handle your data.
1. ACCESS DATA AND HOSTING
You may visit our website without revealing any personal information. With every visit on the website, the web server stores automatically only a so-called server log file which contains e.g. the name of the requested file, your IP address, the date and time of the request, the volume of data transferred and the requesting provider (access data), and documents the request. These access data are analysed exclusively for the purpose of ensuring the smooth operation of the website and improving our offer. This serves according to Art. 6 (1) 1 lit. f GDPR the protection of our legitimate interests in the proper presentation of our offer that are overriding in the process of balancing of interests. All access data are deleted no later than seven days after the end of your visit on our website.
2. DATA COLLECTION AND USE FOR PROCESSING THE CONTRACT, ESTABLISHING CONTACT AND FOR OPENING A CUSTOMER ACCOUNT
We collect personal data that you voluntarily submit to us when you place an order or contact us (e.g. via contact form or by email). Mandatory fields are marked as such because we absolutely need those data to perform the contract or process your contact request and you would otherwise not be able to complete your order or send the contact request. It is evident in each input form what data are collected. We use the data that you disclose to us to perform the contract and process your enquiries according to Art. 6 (1) (b) GDPR.
As far as you have given your consent according to Art. 6 (1) (a) GDPR by creating Your customer account, we use Your data for the purpose of opening the customer account. You will find further information on the processing of your data, in particular on forwarding the data to our service providers for the purpose of order and shipping processing, in the following sections of this privacy policy. Upon contract completion, any further processing of your data will be restricted, and your data will be deleted upon expiry of any retention period applicable under relevant regulations according to Art. 6 (1) lit. c) GDPR, unless you expressly agree to the further use of your data according to Art. 6 (1) lit. a) GDPR or we reserve the right to otherwise use your personal data in the scope and manner permitted by law, of which we inform you in this privacy policy. Your customer account can be deleted at any time. For this purpose you can either send a message to the contact option specified in this privacy policy or use the relevant function available in the customer account.
3. DATA PROCESSING FOR THE PURPOSE OF SHIPMENT
We forward your data to the shipping company within the scope required for the delivery of the ordered goods according to Art. 6 (1) (b) GDPR.
The same applies to the transfer of data to our manufacturers or wholesalers where they take over the shipment for us (drop shipping). These are considered to be shipping companies within the meaning of this privacy policy.
4. DATA PROCESSING FOR THE PURPOSE OF PAYMENT
As part of the payment process in our online shop, we work together with these partners: technical service provider, credit institution, payment service provider.
4.1 DATA PROCESSING FOR THE PURPOSE OF TRANSACTION PROCESSING
Depending on the selected payment method, we forward the data necessary for processing the payment transaction to our technical service providers, who act for us on the basis of processing on our behalf or to the authorised credit institutions or to the selected payment service provider insofar as this is necessary for the payment process. This serves the fulfilment of the contract according to Art. 6 (1) (b) GDPR. In certain cases, payment service providers collect the data required for processing the payment themselves, e.g. on their own website or via technical solution within the ordering process. In this respect, the privacy policy of the respective payment service provider applies. If you have any questions about our payment processing partners and the basis of our cooperation with them, please use the contact option described in this privacy policy.
4.2 DATA PROCESSING FOR THE PURPOSE OF FRAUD PREVENTION AND OPTIMISATION OF OUR PAYMENT PROCESSES
We may forward other data to our service providers, which they use for the purpose of fraud prevention and to optimise our payment processes (e.g. invoicing, processing of contested payments, accounting support) together with the data necessary to process the payment as our processors.
This serves to safeguard our legitimate interests in fraud prevention or an efficient payment management in accordance with Art. 6 (1) (f) GDPR that are overriding in the process of balancing of interests.
4.3 CREDIT ASSESSMENT
In cases where we make deliveries before payment, e.g. in the case of a purchase on invoice, we will have to obtain information about your identity and creditworthiness using the services of specialised service providers (credit reference agencies) for the purpose of contract formation according to Art. 22 (2) (a) GDPR. To this end, we will transfer your personal data needed for the credit assessment to:
Creditsafe Deutschland GmbH
Schreiberhauer Straße 30
10317 Berlin
Germany
This serves to safeguard our legitimate interests in assessing the creditworthiness and willingness to pay of our potential customers prior to the conclusion of the contract and thus to avoid financial losses in accordance with Art. 6 (1) (f) GDPR, that are overriding in the process of balancing of interests. This is necessary for the conclusion of the contract in accordance with Art. 22 (2) (a) GDPR. In this process, we will apply appropriate measures to respect your rights, freedoms and legitimate interests. You can contact us via the contact option specified in this privacy policy to present your position and contest the decision.
After full implementation of the contract and after expiry of the tax and commercial legal retention periods, your data processed for this purpose will be deleted, unless you have expressly consented to further use of your data or we reserve the right to use your data for other purposes which are permitted by law and about which we inform you in this notice.
