In the latter case, deletion takes place once these grounds no longer apply.
General Information on the Legal Bases for Data Processing on This Website
If you have consented to data processing, we process your personal data on the basis of Art. 6(1)(a) GDPR, or Art. 9(2)(a) GDPR where special categories of data pursuant to Art. 9(1) GDPR are processed. In the case of explicit consent to the transfer of personal data to third countries, processing is additionally carried out on the basis of Art. 49(1)(a) GDPR. If you have consented to the storage of cookies or to access to information on your device, for example through device fingerprinting, processing is additionally based on Section 25(1) TDDDG. Consent may be withdrawn at any time. Where your data is required for the performance of a contract or in order to carry out pre-contractual measures, we process it on the basis of Art. 6(1)(b) GDPR. We further process your data where this is necessary to fulfil a legal obligation, on the basis of Art. 6(1)(c) GDPR. Data processing may also take place on the basis of our legitimate interest pursuant to Art. 6(1)(f) GDPR. The relevant legal bases in each individual case are set out in the following sections of this privacy policy.
Recipients of Personal Data
In the course of our business activities we work with various external parties. This sometimes requires personal data to be transferred to these external parties. We only pass on personal data to external parties where this is necessary for the performance of a contract, where we are legally obliged to do so, for example when passing data to tax authorities, where we have a legitimate interest in the transfer pursuant to Art. 6(1)(f) GDPR, or where another legal basis permits the transfer. When we engage processors, we pass on our customers‘ personal data only on the basis of a valid data processing agreement. Where data is processed jointly, a joint processing agreement is concluded.
Withdrawal of Your Consent to Data Processing
Many data processing operations are only possible with your express consent. You can withdraw consent you have already given at any time. The lawfulness of the data processing carried out before the withdrawal remains unaffected.
Right to Object to the Collection of Data in Special Cases and to Direct Advertising (Art. 21 GDPR)
Where data processing is based on Art. 6(1)(e) or (f) GDPR, you have the right at any time to object, on grounds relating to your particular situation, to the processing of your personal data. This also applies to any profiling based on these provisions. The respective legal basis on which processing is based can be found in this privacy policy. If you object, we will no longer process the personal data concerned unless we can demonstrate compelling legitimate grounds for the processing which override your interests, rights and freedoms, or unless the processing serves the establishment, exercise or defence of legal claims.
Where your personal data is processed for the purpose of direct advertising, you have the right to object at any time to the processing of personal data concerning you for such advertising. This also applies to profiling insofar as it is connected with such direct advertising. If you object, your personal data will no longer be used for direct advertising purposes.
Right to Lodge a Complaint with the Competent Supervisory Authority
In the event of infringements of the GDPR, data subjects have the right to lodge a complaint with a supervisory authority, in particular in the member state of their habitual residence, place of work or the place of the alleged infringement. This right to complain exists without prejudice to any other administrative or judicial remedy.
Right to Data Portability
You have the right to have data that we process automatically on the basis of your consent or in performance of a contract handed over to you or to a third party in a common, machine-readable format. If you request the direct transfer of the data to another controller, this will only take place where it is technically feasible.
Access, Rectification and Deletion
Within the framework of the applicable legal provisions, you have the right at any time to free information about your stored personal data, its origin and recipients and the purpose of the data processing, and where applicable a right to the rectification or deletion of this data. You may contact us at any time regarding this and any other questions on the subject of personal data.
Right to Restriction of Processing
You have the right to request that the processing of your personal data be restricted. You may contact us at any time for this purpose. The right to restriction of processing exists in the following cases.
- If you dispute the accuracy of the personal data we hold about you, we usually need time to verify this. For the duration of this review, you have the right to request that the processing of your personal data be restricted.
- If the processing of your personal data has taken place or is taking place unlawfully, you can request the restriction of data processing instead of deletion.
- If we no longer need your personal data but you require it for the exercise, defence or establishment of legal claims, you have the right to request restriction of processing instead of deletion.
- If you have lodged an objection pursuant to Art. 21(1) GDPR, a balance must be struck between your interests and ours. As long as it has not been determined whose interests prevail, you have the right to request the restriction of the processing of your personal data.
If you have restricted the processing of your personal data, this data may, apart from being stored, only be processed with your consent or for the establishment, exercise or defence of legal claims, for the protection of the rights of another natural or legal person, or for reasons of important public interest of the European Union or a member state.
SSL and TLS Encryption
For security reasons and to protect the transmission of confidential content, such as orders or enquiries that you send to us as the site operator, this site uses SSL or TLS encryption. You can recognise an encrypted connection by the fact that the address line of the browser changes from „http://“ to „https://“ and by the padlock symbol in your browser line.
When SSL or TLS encryption is activated, the data you transmit to us cannot be read by third parties.

Cookies
Our web pages use what are known as cookies. Cookies are small data packets that do no harm to your device. They are stored on your device either temporarily for the duration of a session (session cookies) or permanently (permanent cookies). Session cookies are automatically deleted at the end of your visit. Permanent cookies remain stored on your device until you delete them yourself or until they are automatically deleted by your web browser.
Cookies may originate from us (first-party cookies) or from third-party companies (third-party cookies). Third-party cookies make it possible to integrate certain services provided by third-party companies within websites, for example cookies used to process payment services.
Cookies serve various functions. Many cookies are technically necessary because certain website functions would not work without them, for example the shopping cart function or the display of videos. Other cookies may be used to analyse user behaviour or for advertising purposes.
Cookies that are required to carry out the electronic communication process, to provide certain functions you have requested, for example the shopping cart function, or to optimise the website, for example cookies that measure the web audience, are stored on the basis of Art. 6(1)(f) GDPR unless another legal basis is stated. The website operator has a legitimate interest in storing necessary cookies for the technically error-free and optimised provision of its services. Where consent to the storage of cookies and comparable recognition technologies has been requested, processing is carried out exclusively on the basis of that consent (Art. 6(1)(a) GDPR and Section 25(1) TDDDG). Consent may be withdrawn at any time.
You can set your browser so that you are informed about the setting of cookies and allow cookies only in individual cases, exclude the acceptance of cookies for certain cases or in general, and activate the automatic deletion of cookies when the browser is closed. If cookies are deactivated, the functionality of this website may be limited.
Where further cookies and services are used on this website, these are described in this privacy policy.
