We appreciate your interest in our online shop. Protecting your privacy is important to us. Below, we provide detailed information on how we handle your data.

1. Access Data and Hosting

You can visit our websites without providing any personal information. Each time a webpage is accessed, the web server automatically stores a server log file, including the name of the requested file, your IP address, date and time of access, transmitted data volume, and the requesting provider (access data). These access data are solely used to ensure the smooth operation of the site and to improve our offerings. This serves our predominant legitimate interests in presenting our offerings correctly, pursuant to Art. 6(1)(f) GDPR. All access data is deleted no later than seven days after the end of your visit.

Hosting:

Hosting services and website display are partially provided by our service providers as part of data processing on our behalf. Unless otherwise explained in this privacy policy, all access data and data collected through designated forms on this website are processed on their servers. For questions regarding our service providers and the basis of our cooperation with them, please refer to the contact information described in this privacy policy.

2. Data Processing for Contractual Processing and Contact

2.1 Data Processing for Contractual Processing:

For the purpose of contract processing (including inquiries and processing of any existing warranty and performance claims as well as any legal obligation to update), pursuant to Art. 6(1)(b) GDPR, we collect personal data when you voluntarily provide it during your order. Mandatory fields are marked as such because, in these cases, the data is required for contract processing, and we cannot dispatch the order without providing it. The types of data collected can be seen from the respective input forms. Further information on the processing of your data, especially regarding the transfer to our service providers for the purpose of order, payment, and shipping processing, can be found in the following sections of this privacy policy. After the contract is fully processed, your data will be restricted for further processing and deleted after the tax and commercial retention periods expire, unless you expressly consent to further use of your data, pursuant to Art. 6(1)(a) GDPR, or we reserve the right to use your data beyond what is legally allowed and inform you accordingly in this statement.

Inventory Management System:

For order and contract processing, we use external service providers for inventory management systems. Our service providers act on our behalf within the scope of order processing. For questions regarding our service providers and the basis of our cooperation with them, please refer to the contact information described in this privacy policy.

2.2 Customer Account:

If you have given your consent pursuant to Art. 6(1)(a) GDPR by choosing to open a customer account, we use your data for the purpose of opening a customer account and storing your data for future orders on our website. Deleting your customer account is possible at any time and can be done either by sending a message to the contact information described in this privacy policy or through a function provided for this purpose in the customer account. After deleting your customer account, your data will be deleted unless you have expressly consented to further use of your data, pursuant to Art. 6(1)(a) GDPR, or we reserve the right to use your data beyond what is legally allowed and inform you accordingly in this statement.

2.3 Contact:

As part of customer communication, we collect personal data pursuant to Art. 6(1)(b) GDPR to process your inquiries when you voluntarily provide this information during contact with us (e.g., via contact form or email). Mandatory fields are marked as such because, in these cases, the data is required for processing your inquiry. The types of data collected can be seen from the respective input forms. After your inquiry is fully processed, your data will be deleted unless you expressly consent to further use of your data, pursuant to Art. 6(1)(a) GDPR, or we reserve the right to use your data beyond what is legally allowed and inform you accordingly in this statement.

3. Data Processing for Shipping

For the purpose of contract fulfillment, pursuant to Art. 6(1)(b) GDPR, we forward your data to the shipping service provider responsible for delivering ordered goods.

Data Transfer to Shipping Service Providers for Shipping Notification:
If you have given your express consent pursuant to Art. 6(1)(a) GDPR during or after your order, we will forward your email address and phone number to the selected shipping service provider to contact you for delivery notifications or coordination. Consent can be revoked at any time by sending a message to the contact information described in this privacy policy or directly to the shipping service provider at the contact address listed below. After revocation, we will delete the data provided for this purpose, unless you expressly consent to further use of your data, pursuant to Art. 6(1)(a) GDPR, or we reserve the right to use your data beyond what is legally allowed and inform you accordingly in this statement.

4. Data Processing for Payment Processing

In the processing of payments in our online shop, we cooperate with the following partners: technical service providers, banks, payment service providers.

4.1 Data Processing for Transaction Processing:

Depending on the chosen payment method, we forward the data necessary for processing the payment transaction to our technical service providers who act on our behalf within the scope of order processing or to the commissioned banks or the selected payment service provider, as necessary for payment processing. This serves the fulfillment of the contract pursuant to Art. 6(1)(b) GDPR.

This serves our predominant legitimate interests in our protection against fraud or in efficient payment management, pursuant to Art. 6(1)(f) GDPR.
