The rules state that you are able to visit our website – purely in order for you to gain information – without having to disclose your identity. When individual pages of the website are visited for that purpose, all that will be released will be the contact details for our website provider, thus enabling you to gain a display of the website. In this context, the following data is processed:

• Browser type/browser version,

The temporary processing of this data is necessary to enable the functioning of a website visit and the delivery of the website to your device. The access data is not used to identify individual users and is not merged with other data sources. Further storage in log files is done to ensure the functionality of the website and the security of information technology systems. The legal basis for processing is Art. 6(1)(f) of the GDPR. Our legitimate interests lie in ensuring the functionality, integrity, and security of the website.

On our website, cookies and other functions are used, and these carry out the processing of our users’ terminals information and personal data. Some of them are urgently needed (“essential cookies”), whilst others fulfil the function of incorporating external elements, statistical analysis, company attribution or reach measurement.

We have integrated a consent management tool on our website to request your consent for the use of cookies or similar functions. Through the “Privacy Settings,” you can provide or decline your consent for specific functionalities of our website, such as the integration of external elements, statistical analysis, and audience measurement. You have the option to either accept all functionalities (“Accept All”) or only allow essential cookies (“Accept Essential Cookies”).

Personal data and information about the devices used are processed when using the consent management tool.

The legal basis for the processing is Article 6(1)(f) of the GDPR. Our legitimate interests in the processing lie in storing user settings and preferences regarding the use of cookies and other functionalities. User settings are stored through a cookie with a duration of one year. After the expiration of the storage period, consent will be requested again. The user settings made will then be stored again for this period.

Essential cookies are required for basic website functions. This assures that the website will operate correctly. On our website, urgently required cookies are stored for the following purposes:

We have integrated Wordfence on this website. The provider is Defiant Inc., Defiant, Inc., 800 5th Ave Ste 4100, Seattle, WA 98104, USA (hereinafter referred to as “Wordfence”).

Wordfence is used to protect our website against unwanted access or malicious cyber attacks. For this purpose, our website establishes a permanent connection to Wordfence’s servers so that Wordfence can compare its databases with the access made on our website and block them if necessary.

The use of Wordfence is based on Art. 6(1)(f) of the GDPR. The website operator has a legitimate interest in effectively protecting their website against cyber attacks. If consent has been requested, processing will be carried out solely on the basis of Art. 6(1)(a) of the GDPR; consent can be revoked at any time.

The transfer of data to the USA is based on the European Commission’s Standard Contractual Clauses. For more details, please refer to: https://www.wordfence.com/help/general-data-protection-regulation/.

To optimize our website according to user interests, we use “Google Analytics,” a web analytics service provided by Google Ireland Ltd., Gordon House, Barrow Street, Dublin 4, Ireland, Fax: +353 (1) 436 1001. “Google Analytics” uses “cookies” (refer to the “Cookies” section above) that are stored on your device. With the help of these cookies, “Google” processes the information generated about your use of our website through your device, such as accessing a specific webpage, and processes the data mentioned in the “Usage of our Website” section, including your IP address, browser information, the previously visited website, and the date and time of the server request, for the purpose of statistical analysis of website usage. It may also determine whether different devices belong to you or your household. This website uses “Google Analytics” with the extension “anonymizeIp()” to further process IP addresses in a shortened form to significantly hinder identification. According to “Google,” your IP address is truncated within the member states of the European Union beforehand. Only in exceptional cases will the full IP address be transmitted to a “Google” server in the United States and truncated there. On our behalf, “Google” will process this information to evaluate your use of the website, compile reports on website activity, and provide us with other services related to website usage, as separately indicated. The IP address transmitted by your browser for these purposes is not combined with other data from “Google.” The legal basis for the processing is your consent pursuant to Art. 6(1)(a) of the GDPR. “Google” may process the data in the United States as well. There is no adequacy decision by the European Commission for data transfers to the United States; the legal basis for the transfer to the United States is your consent pursuant to Art. 49(1)(a) of the GDPR. Your data associated with “Google Analytics” will be deleted no later than fourteen months. Further information on data protection at “Google” can be found at: http://www.google.de/intl/de/policies/privacy.

You can revoke your consent for processing and the transfer to third countries at any time by sliding the toggle in the “Settings” of the privacy settings. The revocation does not affect the lawfulness of processing based on the consent before its withdrawal.

We use Google Tag Manager on our website. The provider is Google Ireland Limited, Gordon House, Barrow Street, Dublin 4, Ireland.

Google Tag Manager is a tool that allows us to integrate tracking or statistical tools and other technologies on our website. The Google Tag Manager itself does not create user profiles, store cookies, or perform independent analysis. It is solely used for the management and deployment of the tools integrated through it. However, the Google Tag Manager collects your IP address, which may also be transferred to Google’s parent company in the United States.

The use of Google Tag Manager is based on Art. 6(1)(f) of the GDPR. The website operator has a legitimate interest in quickly and easily integrating and managing various tools on their website. If appropriate consent has been obtained, processing is based solely on Art. 6(1)(a) of the GDPR; consent can be revoked at any time.

We use the “Google Ads” service provided by “Google” (Google Ireland Ltd., Gordon House, Barrow Street, Dublin 4, Ireland, Fax: +353 (1) 436 1001), in order – with the aid of advertising media (formerly referred to as “Google AdWords”) on external websites — to draw attention to our attractive offers. By consulting the details gathered from advertising campaigns, we can draw conclusions as to how successful individual advertising measures have been. These advertising measures are supplied by “Google” by way of “ad servers”. For that purpose, we use “ad server” cookies which make it possible to measure certain parameters relating to reach measurement, such as the fading in of advertisements or clicks applied by the user. To the extent that you visit our website by way of having selected a “Google” advertisement, a “cookie” will be stored by “Google Ads” on your terminal. By means of “cookies”, “Google” processes the information generated from your terminal, referring to interactions with our own advertising media (calling up a given Internet page or clicking on a promotion/advertisement) and the data are mentioned in the section entitled “Utilisation of our website”, with particular reference to your IP address, browser details, the previously visited website and the date and time of the server request – in order to analyse and to display our advertisements’ reach measurement. For this purpose, it is also possible to determine whether various terminals belong to yourself or to your household. Corresponding to the marketing tool employed, your browser will automatically set up a direct connection with Google’s server. If you are registered with a “Google” service, “Google” is able to attribute the visit to your user account. Even if you are not registered with “Google” and are not logged in, it is possible for the provider to learn of your IP address and to process it. We receive statistical analyses from Google purely in order to gauge the effectiveness of our advertising media. The legal basis for this processing is your consent under Art. 6 paragraph 1 clause 1, subclause (a), GDPR. To some extent, “Google” also processes the data in the USA. When it comes to the transfer of data to the USA, there is no adequacy decision from the EU Commission; the legal basis for forwarding (of data) to the USA is your consent under Article 49, paragraph 1, clause 1, subclause (a), GDPR. The storage period with “Google” is a maximum of 24 months. You can find out more information about data protection and the storage period with “Google” by visiting: policies.google.com/privacy. It is possible to revoke your consents for processing and third-party country transfer at any time by resetting the controller under “Settings” for the consent tool. This does not, as the result of the revocation, affect the legitimacy of processing conducted on the basis of consent before the revocation was applied.

This website uses the “Google Maps” service provided by “Google” (Google Ireland Ltd., Gordon House, Barrow Street, Dublin 4, Ireland, Fax: +353 (1) 436 1001) for purposes of displaying cards and/or sections of cards and thus provides you with user-friendly utilisation of the card function on the website.

In the course of utilisation of the streaming function, there is also processing of information which has been stored on your terminal (e.g. the IP address). The videos are incorporated in “extended data protection mode”, i.e. no data concerning yourself as a user is transmitted to “YouTube” if you do not play the videos. During the playing of videos of our website, “YouTube” will be informed that you selected the corresponding subsidiary page of our website. To some extent, furthermore, the data which is referred to in the Section entitled “Utilisation of our website” will be forwarded to “Google”. This takes place irrespective of whether “YouTube” has provided a user account by means of which you are logged in, and irrespective of whether there is no user account at all.

It is possible to revoke your consent for processing at any time either by notifying ourselves (refer contact details in the Section entitled “Responsible party/data protection officer or by resetting the controller under “Settings” in the consent tool. This does not, as the result of the revocation, affect the legitimacy of processing conducted on the basis of consent before the revocation was applied.

When contacting our company, for example, by email or through the contact form on the website, the personal data you provide will be processed by us to respond to your inquiry. The provision of a valid email address and your message is mandatory for processing inquiries through the contact form on the website. At the time of sending the message to us, your IP address, date, and time of the transmission are also processed. The legal basis for the processing is Article 6(1)(f) of the GDPR or Article 6(1)(b) of the GDPR if the contact aims at concluding a contract. The processing of personal data from the input mask serves solely to process the contact, which also constitutes our legitimate interest in processing the data. The other data processed during the transmission are used to prevent misuse of the contact form and to ensure the security of our information technology systems. In this context, the data will not be disclosed to third parties. We delete the data collected in this context once the processing is no longer necessary or restrict the processing to comply with existing legally mandatory retention obligations if applicable.

You have the right to object to the processing. Your right to object applies if there are reasons that arise from your particular situation. You can send us your objection using the contact information provided in the “Responsible party” section.

The registration for our email newsletter takes place in a double opt-in process. After entering the data marked as mandatory, we will send you an email to the email address you provided, asking for your explicit confirmation of the newsletter subscription (by clicking on a confirmation link). This ensures that you actually wish to receive our email newsletter. If the confirmation is not received within 24 hours, we will block the information transmitted to us and automatically delete it after a maximum of one month. Upon your confirmation, we process the email address and any other voluntarily provided data of the respective recipient for the purpose of sending our email newsletter.

You can revoke your consent to the processing of your email address for receiving the newsletter at any time, either by sending us a message (see the contact details in the “Responsible” section) or by using the unsubscribe link provided in the newsletter. The revocation does not affect the lawfulness of the processing based on the consent before its withdrawal.

At the time of subscription, we also process your IP address, the time of newsletter registration, and the time of your confirmation to document your newsletter subscription and prevent abuse of your personal data. The legal basis for this processing is Art. 6(1)(f) GDPR. Our legitimate interest in this processing is fraud prevention. We delete this data at the latest when the newsletter subscription ends.

Furthermore, when sending the newsletter, we analyze the open and click rates of our newsletters. For this analysis, the emails sent contain web beacons or tracking pixels, which are one-pixel image files that are also embedded on our website.

We determine when you read our newsletters, which links you click on, and infer the interests of our customers from this information. The legal basis for this processing is Art. 6(1)(f) GDPR.

Personal data will be processed in particular once you are logged in to your respective social media account and once the content – associated with your account – has been posted on social networks. Furthermore, though, data – such as your IP address, for example – can also be processed even if you do not have any social media account. Neither can we exert any influence on the logged data and the data processing procedures, nor are we aware of the full extent of data logging, the purposes for which the processing is conducted and the periods for which the data may come to be stored. Nor do we hold any information concerning the erasure of the logged data on the part of the respective social network.

We use your personal data for processing your payments. We also use your data for handling complaints and product warranty claims. Your personal data is used to verify your identity, ensure that you have reached the legal minimum age for online purchases, and match your address with external partners. We aim to offer you multiple payment options and conduct analyses to determine which payment methods are available to you, including your payment history and credit checks.

If you choose to pay with one of the online payment service providers offered by us during the ordering process, your contact details will be transmitted to them as part of the resulting order. The personal data transmitted to the online payment service provider usually includes first name, last name, address, IP address, email address, or other data necessary for order processing, as well as data related to the service, such as type of service, recipient’s identity, invoice amount, and taxes in percentage, invoice information, etc. This transmission is necessary to perform the service with the payment method you have selected, particularly to confirm your identity, administer your payment, and manage the customer relationship. However, please note that personal data may also be disclosed by the online payment service provider to service providers, subcontractors, or other affiliated companies as required to fulfill the contractual obligations of your order or for the processing of personal data on behalf of the provider. Depending on the selected payment method, such as invoice or direct debit, the personal data transmitted to the provider may be transmitted by the provider to credit agencies. This transmission is for the purpose of identity and credit checks related to your order. For information on the credit agencies involved and the data generally collected, processed, stored, and disclosed by the respective provider, please refer to the privacy policies of the providers.

The legality of the data transfer is based on Article 6(1)(b) of the GDPR, for the performance of the payment method you have chosen, as well as our legitimate interests pursuant to Article 6(1)(f) of the GDPR, to enable a user-friendly and uncomplicated payment process.
