Thank you for your interest in our online store. The protection of your privacy is very important to us. Below we inform you in detail about the handling of your data.

1. access data and hosting

You can visit our website without providing any personal data. Each time a website is accessed, the web server merely automatically saves a so-called server log file, which contains, for example, the name of the requested file, your IP address, the date and time of access, the amount of data transferred and the requesting provider (access data) and documents the access. This access data is analyzed exclusively for the purpose of ensuring trouble-free operation of the site and improving our offer. This serves to safeguard our legitimate interests, which predominate in the context of a weighing of interests, in a correct presentation of our offer in accordance with Art. 6 Para. 1 S. 1 lit. f GDPR.

1.1 Hosting

The services for hosting and displaying the website are partly provided by our service providers as part of processing on our behalf. Unless otherwise stated in this privacy policy, all access data and all data collected in the forms provided on this website will be processed on their servers. If you have any questions about our service providers and the basis of our cooperation with them, please use the contact option described in this privacy policy.

Our service providers are located and/or use servers in the following countries for which the European Commission has determined an adequate level of data protection by decision Canada

1.2 Content Delivery Network

We use a so-called Content Delivery Network ("CDN") for some of our offers in order to shorten loading times. With this service, content, e.g. large media files, is delivered via regionally distributed servers of external CDN service providers. Access data is therefore processed on the servers of the service providers. Our service providers work for us within the framework of order processing.
Our service providers are located and/or use servers in countries outside the EU and the EEA. There is no adequacy decision by the European Commission for these countries.
Our cooperation with them is based on standard data protection clauses of the European Commission. If you have any questions about our service providers and the basis of our cooperation with them, please use the contact option described in this privacy policy.

Mandatory fields are marked as such, as in these cases we absolutely need the data to process the contract and we cannot send the order without it. Which data is collected can be seen from the respective input forms.

Further information on the processing of your data, in particular on 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.

In the context of customer communication, we collect personal data to process your inquiries in accordance with Art. 6 para. 1 sentence 1 lit. b GDPR if you voluntarily provide us with this data when contacting us (e.g. via contact form or e-mail).
