2.    Legal basis

The term "personal data" under data protection law refers to all information relating to an identified or identifiable individual. We process personal data in compliance with the relevant data protection regulations, in particular the DSGVO and the BDSG. Data processing by us only takes place on the basis of a legal permission. We process personal data only with your consent (Section 25 (1) TTDSG or Art. 6 (1) a DSGVO), for the performance of a contract to which you are a party or at your request for the performance of pre-contractual measures (Art. 6 (1) b DSGVO), for the performance of a legal obligation (Art. 6 (1) (c) DSGVO) or if the processing is necessary to protect our legitimate interests or the legitimate interests of a third party, unless your interests or fundamental rights and freedoms which require the protection of personal data override (Art. 6 (1) (f) DSGVO).

 

3.    Duration of storage

Unless otherwise stated in the following notes, we store the data only for as long as is necessary to achieve the processing purpose or to fulfill our contractual or legal obligations. Such statutory retention obligations may arise in particular from commercial or tax law regulations.

 

4.    Categories of recipients of the data

We use processors as part of the processing of your data. Processing operations carried out by such processors include, for example, hosting, sending e-mails, maintenance and support of IT systems, customer and order management, order processing, accounting and billing, marketing measures or file and data carrier destruction. A processor is a natural or legal person, authority, institution or other body that processes personal data on behalf of the data controller. Processors do not use the data for their own purposes, but carry out data processing exclusively for the data controller and are contractually obligated to ensure appropriate technical and organizational measures for data protection. In addition, we may transfer your personal data to bodies such as postal and delivery services, house bank, tax consultancy/auditing company or the financial administration. Further recipients may result from the following notes.

 

5.    Data transfer to third countries

Our data processing operations may involve the transfer of certain personal data to third countries, i.e. countries where the GDPR is not applicable law. Such a transfer takes place in a permissible manner if the European Commission has determined that an adequate level of data protection is required in such a third country. If such an adequacy decision by the European Commission does not exist, a transfer of personal data to a third country will only take place if appropriate safeguards exist pursuant to Art. 46 GDPR or if one of the conditions of Art. 49 GDPR is met.

 

Unless otherwise stated below, we use the EU standard data protection clauses as appropriate safeguards for the transfer of personal data in third countries. You have the possibility to receive a copy of these EU standard data protection clauses or to inspect them. To do so, please contact us at the address given under Contact. 

 

If you consent to the transfer of personal data to third countries, the transfer will take place on the legal basis of Article 49 (1) a DSGVO.

 

6.    Processing in the exercise of your rights

If you exercise your rights in accordance with Articles 15 to 22 of the GDPR, we will process the personal data provided for the purpose of implementing these rights by us and to be able to provide evidence thereof. We will only process data stored for the purpose of providing information and preparing it for this purpose and for data protection control purposes and otherwise restrict processing in accordance with Art. 18 DSGVO.

 

These processing operations are based on the legal basis of Art. 6 para. 1 lit. c DSGVO in conjunction with. Art. 15 to 22 DSGVO and § 34 para. 2 BDSG.

 

7.    Your rights

As a data subject, you have the right to assert your data subject rights against us. In particular, you have the following rights:

·       In accordance with Art. 15 DSGVO and § 34 BDSG, you have the right to request information about whether and, if so, to what extent we are processing personal data relating to you or not.

·       You have the right to demand that we correct your data in accordance with Art. 16 DSGVO.

·       You have the right to demand that we delete your personal data in accordance with Art. 17 DSGVO and § 35 BDSG.

·       You have the right to have the processing of your personal data restricted in accordance with Art. 18 DSGVO.

·       You have the right, in accordance with Art. 20 DSGVO, to receive the personal data concerning you that you have provided to us in a structured, common and machine-readable format and to transfer this data to another controller.

·       If you have given us separate consent to data processing, you may revoke this consent at any time in accordance with Art. 7 (3) DSGVO. Such a revocation does not affect the lawfulness of the processing that was carried out on the basis of the consent until the revocation.

·       If you believe that a processing of personal data concerning you violates the provisions of the GDPR, you have the right to lodge a complaint with a supervisory authority in accordance with Art. 77 GDPR.

 

8.    Right of objection

In accordance with Art. 21 (1) DSGVO, you have the right to object to processing based on the legal basis of Art. 6 (1) (e) or (f) DSGVO on grounds relating to your particular situation. If we process personal data about you for the purpose of direct marketing, you may object to such processing pursuant to Article 21 (2) and (3) of the GDPR.

 

II.        Data processing on our website

When you use the website, we collect information that you provide yourself. In addition, during your visit to the website, certain information about your use of the website is automatically collected by us. In data protection law, the IP address is also generally considered to be a personal data. An IP address is assigned to every device connected to the Internet by the Internet provider so that it can send and receive data.

 

1.    Hosting by Wix

For the presentation and hosting of our website, we use the website construction kit system of the provider Wix.com Ltd (Israel). Insofar as this involves the processing of personal data about the use of our website, Wix.com Ltd. is our order processor. The processing of personal data takes place on servers operated by Wix.com Ltd.

 

When using the service, a transfer of your data to Israel cannot be excluded. We base the data transfer to Israel on the adequacy decision of the European Commission according to Art. 45 DSGVO. For more information on data protection at Wix.com, please see the Wix.com privacy policy at: You can view the privacy policy of Wix.com Ltd. at https://de.wix.com/about/privacy.

 

2.    Server log files processing

During the purely informative use of our website, general information that your browser transmits to our server is initially stored automatically (i.e. not via registration). This includes by default: browser type/version, operating system used, requested page, the previously visited page (referrer URL), IP address, date and time of the server request and HTTP status code.

 

The processing is carried out to protect our legitimate interests and is based on the legal basis of Art. 6 (1) f DSGVO. This processing serves the technical administration and security of the website. We are not able to identify you as a data subject from the stored information. Articles 15 to 22 DSGVO therefore do not apply pursuant to Art. 11 (2) DSGVO, unless you provide additional information that enables your identification in order to exercise your rights set forth in these articles.

 

3.    Contact options and requests

Our website contains contact forms and a chat, through which you can send us messages. The transfer of your data is encrypted (recognizable by the "https" in the address line of the browser). All data fields marked as mandatory are required to process your request. Failure to provide this data will result in us not being able to process your request. The provision of further data is voluntary. Alternatively, you can send us a message via the contact e-mail. We process the data for the purpose of answering your request.

 

If your request is directed towards the conclusion or performance of a contract with us, Art. 6 (1) b DSGVO is the legal basis for data processing. Otherwise, we process the data on the basis of our legitimate interest in contacting inquiring persons. The legal basis for data processing is then Art. 6 para. 1 lit. f DSGVO.

 

4.    Cookies

We use cookies and similar technologies ("cookies") on our website. Cookies are small data sets that are stored by your browser when you visit a website. This identifies the browser used and can be recognized by web servers. You have full control over the use of cookies through your browser.

These may also include cookies from third-party providers (so-called third party cookies). We use such technically unnecessary cookies only with your consent pursuant to Section 25 (1) TTDSG and, if applicable, Article 6 (1) a DSGVO.

Status: December 2022


 [DSK1]Notice:

This is a kind of "backup" if promotional e-mails are sent to customers who have not given their consent. This notice can then help in a legal dispute, as it refers to the legal exception of Section 7 (3) of the German Unfair Competition Act (UWG), which allows promotional e-mails to existing customers if the content relates solely to the company's own similar goods and services.

 

However, Section 7 (3) UWG is interpreted very strictly, so that we generally recommend sending promotional e-mails only with express consent.
