3. Collection and storage of personal data and the nature and purpose of their use

In the course of using our website, we may process personal data, such as contact data, usage data and communication data, from the users of our website (these may be customers, interested parties as well as visitors to our website).
This is done, among other things, for the purpose of providing a functioning online offer, communicating with the users of our website, processing contact requests or customer inquiries and for the purpose of contract performance. Furthermore, data may be collected and processed for marketing purposes.

In the following, we will inform you about the data that may be collected from you and the purpose for which it may be collected and processed.

When visiting the website
When you call up our website, information is automatically sent to the server of our website by the browser used on your end device. This information is temporarily stored in a so-called log file. The following information may be collected without your intervention and stored until automated deletion:

- IP address of the requesting computer
- Date and time of access
- Content of the request (specific page)
- Name and URL of the accessed file
- Access status/HTTP status code
- Amount of data transferred in each case
- website from which the access was made (referrer URL)
- browser used and, if applicable, the operating system of your computer as well as the name of your access provider
- language and version of the browser software

The aforementioned data is processed by us - if collected - for the following purpose:

- Ensuring a smooth connection of the website,
- Ensuring a comfortable use of our website,
- evaluation of system security and stability, and
- for other administrative purposes.

The legal basis for data processing is Art. 6 para. 1 p. 1 lit. f DSGVO. Our legitimate interest follows from the previously listed purposes for data collection. In no case do we use the collected data for the purpose of drawing conclusions about your person.
In addition, we may use cookies and online services when you visit our website. You will find more detailed explanations in this data protection declaration.

Contract initiation/fulfillment

We process such personal data that we receive in the course of pre-contractual inquiries as well as in the course of our business relationship. For example, the following personal data may be collected and processed by us in the process: Salutation, first name and surname, address, telephone number, e-mail address, IBAN / credit card number together with check digit (in each case only insofar as this is necessary for the processing of payments).
Furthermore, data may be passed on to third parties (see point 5 "Passing on data to third parties" in this data protection declaration).

The processing as well as storage of your transmitted data is based on Art. 6 para. 1 p. 1 lit. b DSGVO for the purpose of fulfilling a contract or carrying out pre-contractual measures. In other cases, we process and store your data by means of your consent pursuant to Art. 6 para. 1 p. 1 lit. a DSGVO as well as on the basis of our legitimate interest in processing the inquiry addressed to us pursuant to Art. 6 para. 1 p. 1 lit. f DSGVO.


When registering for our newsletter

You have the option to register for our newsletter. For this purpose, we require your e-mail address and, if applicable, your name as voluntary information for the purpose of addressing you in the newsletter.
We work with the so-called double opt-in procedure. Accordingly, you will receive an e-mail from us after successful registration with the request to confirm your registration. By clicking on the activation link contained in the e-mail, you confirm that you are the owner of the e-mail address and wish to receive the newsletter. If you have given your express consent, we will use your e-mail address based on your consent in accordance with Art. 6 (1) p. 1 lit. a DSGVO to send you our newsletter with information about our offers at regular intervals.
If you do not confirm the activation link within three weeks, we will delete the e-mail address registered for the newsletter.
The data collected is only used to send the newsletter and to document your consent. When you register for the newsletter, we store your IP address and the date of registration. This storage serves solely as evidence in the event that a third party misuses an email address and registers to receive the newsletter without the knowledge of the authorized person.
For the dispatch of our newsletter, we work together with a dispatch service provider. The data is usually transferred directly to servers of the shipping service provider, possibly in the USA, and stored there. The shipping service provider uses this data to send and statistically evaluate the newsletter on our behalf.

As part of a performance measurement, our newsletters contain so-called "web beacons" (small invisible graphics) to collect information. These are pixel-sized files that are retrieved from the servers of the dispatch service provider when the e-mails are opened. Thus, for example, it can be seen whether the e-mail has been opened. Technical data such as IP address, browser type or the time of retrieval are also recorded. This data is evaluated exclusively for the purpose of evaluating the reader behavior of our newsletter recipients, so that it is possible to adapt the content to the interests of the newsletter recipients. A separate revocation from the performance measurement is not possible. If you do not wish to have your success measured, please unsubscribe from the entire newsletter subscription.

The use of a dispatch service provider for newsletter dispatch as well as the measurement of success are based on our legitimate interests in accordance with Art. 6 para. 1 p. 1 lit. f DSGVO in an efficient, user-friendly and secure newsletter system. An order processing agreement has been concluded pursuant to Art. 28 (3) p. 1 DSGVO.

You can unsubscribe from the newsletter at any time and revoke your consent with the consequence that the data stored for newsletter receipt will be deleted by us and you will no longer receive a newsletter from us. Data stored by us for other purposes will remain unaffected. You can declare the revocation by clicking on the unsubscribe link provided in every newsletter e-mail or by sending a message to the contact details provided in the imprint.

Shipping service provider:

CleverReach
The dispatch of our newsletter is carried out by the dispatch service provider CleverReach GmbH & Co. KG // CRASH-Building, Schafjückenweg 2, 26180 Rastede, Germany.

When using our contact form

For questions of any kind, we offer you the opportunity to contact us via a form provided on the website. In doing so, it is necessary to provide a first and last name as well as a valid e-mail address so that we know who the inquiry is from and so that we can answer it. If necessary, the telephone number can be provided voluntarily.
The processing as well as storage of your transmitted data is based on Art. 6 para. 1 p. 1 lit. b DSGVO for the purpose of processing your request. Furthermore, we process your data by means of your consent according to Art. 6 para. 1 p. 1 lit. a DSGVO as well as on the basis of our legitimate interest in processing the inquiry directed to us according to Art. 6 para. 1 p. 1 lit. f DSGVO.


When creating a customer account

You have the option to register with us and create a customer account. The data required for this (such as name, address and e-mail) are marked accordingly and can be taken from the input mask. In the customer account, your personal data is stored for the purpose that you do not have to enter this data again when you visit our website later and place further orders, thus simplifying the ordering process. The customer account is access-protected by your self-chosen password.
You can delete your customer account at any time and revoke your consent with the consequence that we irrevocably delete the data stored in the customer account, provided that no legal retention periods are opposed. For this purpose, it is sufficient to send a message to the contact details provided in the imprint (also possible by e-mail).
The processing and storage of your transmitted data is based on Art. 6 para. 1 p. 1 lit. a DSGVO in the context of your previously given consent and on Art. 6 para. 1 p. 1 lit. b DSGVO in the context of contract performance.


4. Storage period and data deletion

As a matter of principle, we store personal data only until the purpose for which you entrusted us with the data has been fulfilled. After that, the data will be permanently deleted. However, if there are legal retention periods for the storage of personal data, we store it for as long as we are legally obliged to do so. Such obligations regularly result from legal obligations to provide evidence and to retain data, which are regulated, among other things, in the German Commercial Code and the German Fiscal Code, e.g. ten years for tax purposes. After expiry of the legal retention period, the data is permanently deleted.
Consent to the processing and storage of your personal data pursuant to Article 6 (1) sentence 1 a DSGVO may be revoked at any time, with the result that the data will be permanently deleted, provided that there are no statutory retention periods to the contrary.
Further rights, by which we can be prohibited from processing your personal data, result from Art. 21 para. 1 and para. 2 DSGVO. Information on the resulting right of objection can be found in this data protection declaration under section 14 "Right of objection".


5. Transfer of data to third parties

We will only share your personal data with third parties if:

- you have given your express consent to do so in accordance with Art. 6 para. 1 p. 1 lit. a DSGVO,
- the disclosure is necessary under Art. 6 (1) p. 1 lit. f DSGVO to protect our legitimate interests or those of a third party, such as the exercise, defense or assertion of legal claims, unless your interests or fundamental rights and freedoms, which require the protection of personal data, override,
- in the event that a legal obligation exists for the disclosure pursuant to Art. 6 para. 1 p. 1 lit. c DSGVO,
- this is legally permissible and required according to Art. 6 para. 1 p. 1 lit. b DSGVO for the processing of contractual relationships with you, such as the transfer of address data to a transport company. Likewise, data may be passed on to a dropshipper who then ships the goods to you on our behalf. If goods are ordered by you to be shipped to an address other than yours, this is done on the basis of our legitimate interests pursuant to Art. 6 (1) p. 1 lit. f DSGVO in the proper performance of the contractual relationship, as well as
- according to Art. 6 para. 1 p. 1 lit. b DSGVO for the purpose of payment processing to the payment service provider commissioned with the payment processing and according to Art. 6 para. 1 p. 1 lit. f DSGVO in the context of our legitimate interests in being able to offer reliable and secure payment processes.

If necessary, an order processing agreement pursuant to Art. 28 para. 3 p. 1 DSGVO has been concluded with the service provider used.
In the event that personal data of the customer is processed in a third country (outside the EU), this is done within the framework of the previously given consent of the customer, within the framework of the fulfillment of the contract or due to legally existing obligations. The possible transfer takes place in compliance with the legal requirements. In particular, the regulations of Art. 44 to Art. 49 DSGVO apply here.

Use of remarketing or "similar target groups" function of Google Inc.

We use the functions of "Google Analytics Remarketing". The company responsible for the European region is Google Ireland Limited, Gordon House, Barrow Street, Dublin 4, Ireland ("Google").
The function enables us to present targeted personalized and interest-related advertisements to the user of the website based on his or her surfing behavior shown on our website when he or she visits websites belonging to the Google advertising network. For this purpose, Google stores so-called "cookies" in the user's browser (see section 7 "Cookies"). The information generated by the cookies about the use of this website is transmitted directly to Google servers, possibly in the USA, and stored there. Cookies make it possible to recognize the user when he visits websites belonging to the Google advertising network. These cookies are not used to identify a person, but only to identify the web browser.
We use the cross-device function for this purpose. Here, the advertising target groups created by Google Analytics Remarketing are linked to the cross-device functions of Google Ads and DoubleClick. If a user has given consent, Google links the web and browsing history with the user's Google account for this purpose. In this way, the corresponding advertisements can also be displayed on a user's other end devices, such as smartphone and tablet. The lifetime of the cookie is a maximum of 18 months.

Google Ads Conversion Tracking

Our website uses the advertising system "Google Ads" of Google LLC. The company responsible for the European region is Google Ireland Limited, Gordon House, Barrow Street, Dublin 4, Ireland ("Google").
Within the framework of Google Ads, we use conversion tracking. In this context, Google Ads sets a so-called "cookie" (see section 7 "Cookies") on your computer if you have accessed our website via a Google ad. The information generated by the cookies about the use of this website is transmitted directly to Google servers, possibly in the USA, and stored there. These cookies lose their validity after 30 days and are not used for personal identification. If you visit certain pages of ours and the cookie has not yet expired, Google and we can recognize that you clicked on the ad and were redirected to this page.
Each Ads customer receives a different cookie. Cookies can therefore not be tracked across Ads customers' websites. The information collected using the conversion cookie is used to create conversion statistics for Ads customers who have opted in to conversion tracking. Ads clients learn the total number of users who clicked on their ad and were redirected to a page tagged with a conversion tracking tag. However, they do not receive any information that personally identifies users.

You can also prevent the collection of data generated by the cookie and related to the use of the website (including IP address) to Google and the processing of this data by Google by downloading and installing the browser plugin available at the following link: https://tools.google.com/dlpage/gaoptout?hl=de

Microsoft Advertising

Our website uses the Microsoft Advertising system of Microsoft Corporation, One Microsoft Way, Redmond, WA 98052-6399, USA.

If you have accessed our website via a Microsoft ad, Microsoft Ads will set a so-called "cookie" (see "Cookies" in this privacy policy) on your computer. The information generated by the cookies (possibly also your IP address) about the use of this website is transmitted directly to Microsoft servers, possibly in the USA, and stored there. These cookies lose their validity after 180 days and are not used for personal identification. By including the UET tag, we can track the activities of our users on our website. For example, it is possible for us to track how many users have clicked on our ad, what they click on our website or how long users stay on our website. However, we do not receive any information with which users can be personally identified. Microsoft uses the data, among other things, to optimize its products and the advertising offer for users. If you have a Microsoft account, Microsoft may link the collected data to your account.

If you do not agree with the display of advertisements by Microsoft, you can deactivate them: https://account.microsoft.com/privacy/ad-settings/signedout

Facebook Pixel, Custom Audiences and Facebook Conversion

We use the so-called Facebook pixel on our websites, an analysis tool of the social network Facebook, which is operated by Meta Platforms Inc, 1 Hacker Way, Menlo Park, CA 94025, USA, or - if you are based in the EU - Meta Platforms Ireland Limited, 4 Grand Canal Square, Dublin 2, Ireland.

The Facebook pixel tracks user behavior on our website by means of so-called events. A pixel event is additional information that adds details to the information sent to Facebook. Events allow Facebook to inform what action (e.g. purchase, registration, lead, search, etc.) was taken on our site. The pixel is used on our site in standard mode (first party cookie).

Details on how the Facebook pixel works can be found in Facebook's help section at:
https://www.facebook.com/business/help/651294705016616

In the event of previously granted consent, we can transmit information of our customers to Facebook within the scope of so-called "Custom Audiences", so that it is possible for Facebook, based on the information received, to assign visitors to our online offer to a specific target group and then to display correspondingly tailored advertising for them (so-called "Facebook Ads"). In this way, advertising - even across devices - is only displayed to those users who have also shown interest in our products. Furthermore, we can see whether customers have been redirected from a Facebook advertising page to our site and have performed certain actions (so-called conversions), such as the purchase of a certain product. Thus, based on the conversions, we can evaluate the effectiveness of the advertisements for statistical purposes.

Personal data of the user is collected as part of the extended data matching and forwarded to Facebook servers, possibly in the USA. Facebook may link the data to the user's Facebook account if the user is registered with Facebook. Even without registration with Facebook, it is possible that Facebook processes and stores data (including your IP address).

You can object to the collection by Facebook pixel and a use of your data for the display of Facebook ads. You can also determine your advertising preferences, i.e. which specific types of advertisements should be displayed to you within Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/settings?tab=ads.

YouTube
We integrate online offers (idR videos) of the platform "YouTube" of the provider Google LLC on our website. Responsible for the European area is Google Ireland Limited, Gordon House, Barrow Street, Dublin 4, Ireland. The operator of the pages is Youtube LLC, 901 Cherry Ave, San Bruno, CA 94066, USA.
We have activated the "extended data protection mode" function of Youtube. If you call up a page of ours on which a Youtube video is embedded, according to Youtube no connection is yet established to the servers of Youtube. However, by calling up a page of ours on which a Youtube video is embedded, a connection to the Google network "double-click", an advertising tool of the provider Google, may be established, which may trigger further data processing operations without our influence.
If you click on a YouTube video on our site, data (including your IP address) is transmitted directly to Google servers, possibly in the USA, and stored there. Google may store so-called cookies (see section 7 "Cookies") to evaluate your user behavior on your terminal device and assign this data to your user account if you are logged in to a Google service. If you do not want Google or Youtube to assign the data collected via our site to your user account, you must log out of the Google services before visiting our pages.
Google or Youtube may use this information, among other things, for the purpose of collecting video statistics and improving the user experience. We would like to point out that we have no knowledge of the content of the transmitted data or its use by Google or Youtube.

In order to make you aware of this possibility, you may be contacted by us or by the provider in the interest of a serious evaluation in the course of the purchase transaction - provided that you have given your prior consent.

The "Geprüfter Webshop" seal is integrated on our website. The seal and the services advertised with it are an offer of Tisko Consulting GmbH, Asbacher Straße 49, 53545 Linz am Rhein. When the seal is called up, the web server automatically saves a so-called server log file, which contains, for example, your IP address, the date and time of the call-up, the volume of data transferred and the requesting provider (access data) and documents the call-up. This access data is not evaluated and is automatically deleted at the latest 30 days after the end of your visit to the site.
