We appreciate your interest in our online shop. Protecting your privacy is very important to us. Below, we provide detailed information about how we handle your data.
- Access data and hosting
You can visit our website without providing any personal information. Each time you access a website, the web server 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 evaluated solely for the purpose of ensuring trouble-free operation of the website and improving our offering. This serves to safeguard our legitimate interests in a correct presentation of our offering in accordance with Art. 6 (1) (f) GDPR, which prevail within the framework of a balancing of interests. All access data is deleted no later than seven days after the end of your visit to the website.
1.1 Hosting
The services for hosting and displaying the website are partially 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 forms provided for this purpose on this website are 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 options described in this privacy policy. Our service providers are located in the USA. The European Commission has not issued an adequacy decision for the USA. Our cooperation is based on standard data protection clauses of the European Commission.
1.2 Content Delivery Network
To shorten loading times, we use a so-called content delivery network ("CDN") for some of our offerings. With this service, content, e.g. large media files, is delivered via regionally distributed servers of external CDN service providers. Therefore, access data is processed on the service provider's servers. Our service providers work for us as part of order processing. If you have any questions about our service providers and the basis of our cooperation with them, please use the contact options described in this privacy policy. Our service providers are based in the USA. The European Commission has not issued an adequacy decision for the USA. Our cooperation is based on standard data protection clauses of the European Commission.
- Data processing for contract processing and contact
We collect personal data when you voluntarily provide it to us as part of your order or when you contact us (e.g., via contact form or email). Mandatory fields are marked as such, as in these cases we absolutely need the data to process the contract or to process your contact, and without this information you cannot complete the order or send the contact. The data collected is evident from the respective input forms.
We use the data you provide to process the contract and handle your inquiries in accordance with Art. 6 (1) (b) GDPR. 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 data protection declaration. After the contract has been fully processed, your data will be restricted for further processing and deleted after expiry of any retention periods under tax and commercial law in accordance with Art. 6 (1) (c) GDPR, unless you have expressly consented to further use of your data in accordance with Art. 6 (1) (a) GDPR or we reserve the right to use the data in any other way that is permitted by law and about which we will inform you in this declaration.
- Data processing for the purpose of shipping
In order to fulfil the contract in accordance with Art. 6 (1) (b) GDPR, we will pass on your data to the shipping service provider commissioned with the delivery, insofar as this is necessary for the delivery of ordered goods.
The same applies to the transfer of data to our manufacturers or wholesalers in cases where they handle shipping for us (drop shipment). These are considered shipping service providers within the meaning of this privacy policy.
Data transfer to shipping service providers for the purpose of shipping notification
If you have given us your express consent to do so during or after your order, we will pass on your email address and telephone number to the selected shipping service provider in accordance with Art. 6 (1) (a) GDPR so that they can contact you before delivery for the purpose of notifying you of the delivery or coordinating the delivery.

We will forward your data to a commissioned debt collection service provider if our payment claim has not been settled despite a prior reminder. In this case, the claim will be collected directly by the debt collection service provider. This serves to fulfill the contract in accordance with Art. 6 (1) (b) GDPR and to protect our legitimate interests, which prevail within the framework of a balancing of interests, in the effective assertion and enforcement of our payment claim in accordance with Art. 6 (1) (f) GDPR.
