2. Affected

The visitors or users are affected by the data processing in our online shop. In the following we use the term user uniformly.

Users who order goods via the online shop are sometimes referred to as customers in the interest of clarification.

3. Collection and storage of personal data as well as type and purpose of use

As part of our online offer, we first collect usage and access data as well as meta and communication data from all users.

In addition to the aforementioned data processing, we use an analysis service, security tools and cookies when you visit our website. This is explained in detail in Sections 4 and 5 of this data protection declaration.

In addition, you can generally visit our online shop without having to enter any further personal data.

However, if you contact us, we will also collect inventory data (name, address) and contact data (e-mail address, telephone number) to the extent that you voluntarily provide it to us.

When using our online shop for shopping, the collection of the aforementioned inventory data and contact data is mandatory, and the processing of contract data and payment data is also necessary.

We would like to explain these to you in more detail.

a) Visiting the online shop

When you visit our online shop, the Internet browser you use on your end device (PC, laptop, smartphone, tablet, etc.) automatically sends information to the server on which our website is hosted. The following access data is recorded without your intervention and stored until it is automatically deleted:

IP address of the requesting computer,
date and time of access,
Name/URL of the retrieved website,
Referrer URL (previously visited website from which access is made)
amount of data transferred,
Browser used along with version and operating system of your computer and the name of the requesting access provider.

This information is temporarily stored by us or our web host in a so-called server log file. The access data mentioned are collected and stored for the following purposes:

Enabling a smooth connection setup,
Meaningful and comfortable usability of our website,
maintaining system security and stability as well
for other administrative purposes.

This data processing takes place on the basis of our legitimate interests based on the listed purposes in accordance with Article 6 Paragraph 1 lit. f GDPR. The data collected will never be used for the purpose of drawing conclusions about your person.
b) contact

Various contact options are listed on our online shop. On the one hand, contact can be made in such a way that this does not take place directly via the online shop, but separately from it (post, telephone, e-mail). On the other hand, you can also send us an inquiry using the contact form offered here. To do this, you must confirm that you are aware of this data protection declaration and that you agree.

When contacting us via the aforementioned channels, your voluntary information will be processed to process the contact request and its processing in accordance with Article 6 (1) (b) GDPR.

We delete the inquiries or the data received as soon as they are no longer required – subject to statutory archiving and storage obligations. We check the necessity regularly.

c) Use of the online shop for shopping

In order for you to be able to use our online shop for shopping, it is necessary for us to process your customer data – inventory data, contact data, contract data and payment data – in addition to the processing described above. The mandatory information required in this context is marked in each case. The mandatory information is necessary for the conclusion of the contract or the execution of the contract.

We process the named customer data to fulfill our pre-contractual and contractual obligations and services in accordance with Article 6 Paragraph 1 lit b. GDPR.

Customer data is deleted after the statutory warranty periods or similar periods have expired; the necessity of storing the data is checked every two years.

However, there are legal archiving obligations with other deadlines. In these cases, the corresponding customer data will be deleted after the period resulting from the legal requirement has expired.

According to legal requirements, the storage must be in accordance with § 257 Para. 1 HGB (e.g. trading books, management reports, commercial letters, accounting vouchers, opening balance sheets, annual reports, inventories) for 6 years and in accordance with § 147 Para. 1 AO (e.g. business books, records, management reports, accounting vouchers , commercial and business letters and other documents, insofar as they are important for taxation) for 10 years.

If the data is not deleted because it is required for other permissible or legally required purposes, its processing will be restricted. This applies, for example, to the data mentioned above, which must be retained for commercial or tax reasons. This data will be blocked and no longer processed for other purposes.

You have the option of creating a customer account in our online shop so that you can conveniently use the shop repeatedly for orders over a period of time that you specify. The data in a customer account you may have created remains stored there until the customer account is deleted.

4. Cooperation with third parties within the framework of this online shop

a) Principles

We only pass on your personal data to third parties if this is permitted by law (e.g. according to Art. 6 Para. 1 S. 1 lit. b DSGVO, if this is necessary for the processing of contractual relationships with you), if you have expressly consented (Art. 6 Para. 1 S. 1 lit. a GDPR), a legal obligation provides for this (Art. 6 Para. 1 S. 1 lit. c GDPR) or on the basis of our legitimate interests (Art. 6 Para. 1 lit f. GDPR).

The same applies if individual data is processed in the USA, as described in more detail under Section 5. The USA is a third country outside the European Union and the European Economic Area, so that in these cases processing is only possible due to the existence of the special requirements of Art. 44 et seq. GDPR through the “Privacy Shield” or by observing officially recognized special contractual obligations, so-called “standard contractual clauses”.

If it is necessary to involve third parties with the processing of data on the basis of a so-called “order processing contract”, this is done in accordance with Art. 28 DSGVO.

b) Data transmission when ordering and shipping goods

We only transmit personal data to third parties as part of contract processing if this is necessary for this contract processing. As a rule, this only applies to the companies entrusted with the delivery of the goods you have ordered or the bank responsible for processing the payment.

Any further transfer of personal data does not take place or only if you have expressly consented to the transfer. Under no circumstances will your data be passed on to third parties for advertising purposes.
