Security and protection of your personal data
We consider it our primary
responsibility to protect the confidentiality of the personal data you provide, and
to protect it from unauthorised access. For this reason, we take the utmost care and
state-of-the-art security standards to ensure the maximum protection of your
personal data.
As a private company, we are subject to the provisions of the European Data Protection Regulation (DSGVO) and the regulations of the German Federal Data Protection Act (BDSG). We have taken technical and organisational measures to ensure that the data protection rules are respected by both us and our external service providers.
Terms
The legislator requires that personal data be processed lawfully, fairly and
in a transparent manner in relation to the data subject ("lawfulness, fairness and
transparency"). To ensure this, we hereby inform you of the individual legal
definitions that are also used in this Privacy Policy:
1. Personal data
"Personal data" means any information relating to an identified
or identifiable natural person (hereinafter, "data subject"); an identifiable
natural person is one who can be identified, directly or indirectly, in particular
by reference to an identifier such as a name, an identification number, location
data, an online identifier or to one or more factors specific to the physical,
physiological, genetic, mental, economic, cultural or social identity of that
natural person.
2. Processing
"Processing" means any operation or set of operations that is
performed on personal data or on sets of personal data, whether or not by automated
means, such as collection, recording, organisation, structuring, storage, adaptation
or alteration, retrieval, consultation, use, disclosure by transmission,
dissemination or otherwise making available, alignment or combination, restriction,
erasure or destruction.
3. Restriction of processing
"Restriction of processing" means the marking of
stored personal data with the aim of limiting their processing in the future.
4. Profiling
"Profiling" means any form of automated processing of personal data
consisting of the use of personal data to evaluate certain personal aspects relating
to a natural person, in particular to analyse or predict aspects concerning that
natural person's performance at work, economic situation, health, personal
preferences, interests, reliability, behaviour, location or movements.
5. Pseudonymisation
"Pseudonymisation" means the processing of personal data in
such a manner that the personal data can no longer be attributed to a specific data
subject without the use of additional information, provided that such additional
information is kept separately and is subject to technical and organisational
measures to ensure that the personal data is not attributed to an identified or
identifiable natural person.
6. Filing system
"Filing system" means any structured set of personal data which
are accessible according to specific criteria, whether centralised, decentralised or
dispersed on a functional or geographical basis.
7. Controller
"Controller" means the natural or legal person, public authority,
agency or other body which, alone or jointly with others, determines the purposes
and means of the processing of personal data; where the purposes and means of such
processing are determined by Union or Member State law, the controller or the
specific criteria for its nomination may be provided for by Union or Member State
law.
8. Processor
"Processor" means a natural or legal person, public
authority, agency or other body that processes personal data on behalf of the
controller.
9. Recipient
"Recipient" means a natural or legal person, public authority, agency
or another body, to which the personal data is disclosed, whether a third party or
not. However, public authorities that may receive personal data in the framework of
a particular inquiry in accordance with Union or Member State law shall not be
regarded as recipients; the processing of such data by those public authorities
shall be in compliance with the applicable data protection rules according to the
purposes of the processing.
10. Third party
"Third party" means a natural or legal person, public authority,
agency or body other than the data subject, controller, processor and persons who,
under the direct authority of the controller or processor, are authorised to process
personal data.
11. Consent
"Consent" of the data subject means any freely given, specific,
informed and unambiguous indication of the data subject's wishes by which he or she,
by a statement or by a clear affirmative action, signifies agreement to the
processing of personal data relating to him or her.
Lawfulness of the processing
The processing of personal data is lawful only if
there is a legal basis for the processing. In accordance with points (a) - (f) of
Article 6 (1) GDPR, the legal basis for the process may in particular be the
following:
a. the data subject has given consent to the processing of his or her personal data
for one or more specific purposes;
b. processing is necessary for the performance
of a contract to which the data subject is party or in order to take steps at the
request of the data subject prior to entering into a contract;
c. processing is
necessary for compliance with a legal obligation to which the controller is subject;
d.
processing is necessary in order to protect the vital interests of the data subject
or of another natural person;
e. processing is necessary for the performance of a
task carried out in the public interest or in the exercise of official authority
vested in the controller;
f. processing is necessary for the purposes of the
legitimate interests pursued by the controller or by a third party, except where
such interests are overridden by the interests or fundamental rights and freedoms of
the data subject which require protection of personal data, in particular where the
data subject is a child.

(2) This website uses the following types of cookies, the scope and operation of
which are explained below:

Additional features and services of our website
(1) In addition to the purely
informative use of our website, we offer various services that you can use if you
are interested. For this purpose, you will generally need to provide additional
personal data, which we will use to furnish the service, and for which the basic
principles of data protection specified above will apply.
(2) To some extent, we will use external service providers to process your data. Such providers have been carefully selected and commissioned by us, are bound by our instructions and are subject to regular inspections.
(3) Furthermore, we can forward your personal data to third parties, if promotion participation, competitions, the concluding of contracts or similar services are offered by us together with partners. You can receive additional information on this when you indicate your personal data, or below in the description of the service.

Use of our web shop
(1) If you would like to place an order in our web shop, in
order to conclude a contract, it is necessary that you provide your personal data;
we need such data to process your order. Mandatory information necessary for the
handling of a contract is marked separately; further details are voluntary. We
process the data provided by you to handle your order. For this purpose, we can pass
on your payment data to our principal bank. The legal basis for this is point (b) of
Art. 6 (1)(1) of the GDPR. You can voluntarily create a customer account, through
which we can save your data for later purchases. If you create an account under "My
Account", the data you provide will be stored, subject to revocation. You can always
delete all other data, including your user account, in the customer area.
(2) Based on requirements under commercial and tax law, we are required to store your
address, payment and order data for a period of ten years. However, after two years,
we undertake the restriction of the processing of your data; that is, your data will
only be used to comply with statutory obligations.
(3) To prevent
unauthorised access by third parties to your personal data, in particular financial
data, the order process is encrypted using TLS technology.
Children
In principle, our service is limited to adults. Persons under the age
of 18 should not submit any personal data to us without the consent of their parents
or guardians.
Rights of data subjects
(1) Withdrawal of consent
If the processing of personal data is based on a consent
that has been issued, you shall have the right to withdraw the consent at any time.

consent before its withdrawal.
In order to exercise your right to withdraw, you may contact us at any time.
(2) Right to confirmation
You have the right to obtain from the controller
confirmation as to whether or not we are processing personal data concerning you.

If personal data is processed, at any time you may obtain
access to such personal data and the following information:
a. the purposes of the processing;
b. the categories of personal data being
processed;
c. the recipients or categories of recipient to whom the personal data

Where personal data is transferred to a third country or to an international organisation, you shall have the right to be informed of the appropriate safeguards pursuant to Article 46 of the GDPR relating to the transfer. We shall provide a copy of the personal data undergoing processing. For any further copies you request of a person, we may charge a reasonable fee based on administrative costs. Where you make the request by electronic means, and unless otherwise requested, the information shall be provided in a commonly used electronic form. The right to obtain a copy referred to in paragraph 3 shall not adversely affect the rights and freedoms of others.
(4) Right to rectification
You have the right to obtain from us without undue
delay the rectification of inaccurate personal data concerning you. Taking into
account the purposes of the processing, you shall have the right to have incomplete
personal data completed, including by means of providing a supplementary statement.
(5) Right to erasure ("right to be forgotten")
You have the right to obtain
from the controller the erasure of personal data concerning you without undue delay
and we shall have the obligation to erase personal data without undue delay where
one of the following grounds applies:
a. The personal data is no longer necessary in relation to the purposes for which
they were collected or otherwise processed.

(a) of Article 9(2) of the GDPR, and where there is no other legal ground for the
processing.
c. The data subject objects to the processing pursuant to Article
21(1) of the GDPR and there are no overriding legitimate grounds for the processing,
or the data subject objects to the processing pursuant to Article 21(2) of the GDPR.
d.
The personal data has been unlawfully processed.
e. The personal data has to be
erased for compliance with a legal obligation in Union or Member State law to which
the controller is subject.
f. The personal data has been collected in relation to
the offer of information society services referred to in Article 8(1) of the GDPR.
Where the controller has made the personal data public and is obliged pursuant to paragraph 1 to erase the personal data, the controller, taking account of available technology and the cost of implementation, shall take reasonable steps, including technical measures, to inform controllers which are processing the personal data that the data subject has requested the erasure by such controllers of any links to, or copy or replication of, such personal data.
The right to erasure ("right to be forgotten") shall not apply to the extent that processing is necessary:
– for exercising the right of freedom of expression and information;
– for
compliance with a legal obligation which requires processing by Union or Member
State law to which the controller is subject or for the performance of a task
carried out in the public interest or in the exercise of official authority vested
in the controller;
– for reasons of public interest in the area of public health
in accordance with points (h) and (i) of Article 9(2) as well as Article 9(3) of the
GDPR;
– for archiving purposes in the public interest, scientific or historical
research purposes or statistical purposes in accordance with Article 89(1) of the
GDPR in so far as the right referred to in paragraph 1 is likely to render
impossible or seriously impair the achievement of the objectives of that processing;
or
– for the establishment, exercise or defence of legal claims.
(6) Right to restrict processing
You have the right to demand from us the
restriction of the processing of your personal data if one of the following
conditions have been met:
a. the accuracy of the personal data is contested by the data subject, for a period
enabling the controller to verify the accuracy of the personal data,
b. the
processing is unlawful and the data subject opposes the erasure of the personal data
and requests the restriction of their use instead;
c. the controller no longer
needs the personal data for the purposes of the processing, but they are required by
the data subject for the establishment, exercise or defence of legal claims, or
d.
the data subject has objected to processing pursuant to Article 21(1) of the GDPR
pending the verification whether the legitimate grounds of the controller override
those of the data subject.
If the processing has been restricted in accordance with the conditions set forth above, such personal data shall, with the exception of storage, only be processed with the data subject's consent or for the establishment, exercise or defence of legal claims or for the protection of the rights of another natural or legal person or for reasons of important public interest of the Union or of a Member State.
In order to exercise the right to restrict processing, the data subject may contact us at any time using the contact details provided above.
(7) Right to data portability
You have the right to receive the personal data
concerning you, which you have provided to a controller, in a structured, commonly
used and machine-readable format and have the right to transmit such data to another
controller without hindrance from the controller to which the personal data has been
provided, where:
a. the processing is based on consent pursuant to point (a) of Article 6(1) or point (a) of Article 9(2) or on a contract pursuant to point (b) of Article 6(1) of the GDPR; and
b. the processing is carried out by automated means.
In exercising your right to data portability pursuant to paragraph 1, you shall have the right to have the personal data transmitted directly from one controller to another, where technically feasible. The exercise of the right to data portability shall be without prejudice to the right to erasure ("right to be forgotten"). That right shall not apply to processing necessary for the performance of a task carried out in the public interest or in the exercise of official authority vested in the controller.
(8) Right to object
You have the right to object, on grounds relating to your
particular situation, at any time to the processing of personal data concerning you
which is based on point (e) or (f) of Art. 6(1) of the GDPR, including profiling
based on such provisions. The controller shall no longer process the personal data
unless the controller demonstrates compelling legitimate grounds for the processing
which override your interests, rights and freedoms or for the establishment,
exercise or defence of legal claims.
Where personal data is processed for direct marketing purposes, you have the right to object at any time to processing of personal data concerning you for such marketing, which includes profiling to the extent that it is related to such direct marketing. Where you object to processing for direct marketing purposes, the personal data shall no longer be processed for such purposes.
In the context of the use of information society services, and notwithstanding Directive 2002/58/EC, you may exercise your right to object by automated means using technical specifications.
You have the right, for reasons of your particular situation, to object to the processing of personal data relating to you for scientific or historical research purposes or for statistical purposes under Article 89 (1), unless such processing is necessary for the performance of a task carried out for reasons of public interest.
You may exercise the right to object at any time, by contacting the respective controller.
(9) Automated individual decision-making, including profiling
You have the right
not to be subject to a decision based solely on automated processing, including
profiling, which produces legal effects concerning you or similarly significantly
affects you. This shall not apply if the decision:
a. is necessary for entering into, or performance of, a contract between the data subject and the data controller,
b. is authorised by Union or Member State law to which the controller is subject and which also lays down suitable measures to safeguard the rights and freedoms and legitimate interests of the data subject, or
c. is based on the explicit consent of the data subject.
The controller shall take appropriate measures to protect the rights and freedoms and the justified interests of the data subject, including, at a minimum, the right to obtain the intervention of a person on the part of the controller, to express his or her own position and to contest the decision.
This right can be exercised by the data subject at any time by contacting the controller.
(10) Right to lodge a complaint with a supervisory authority
Furthermore, without
prejudice to any other administrative or judicial remedy, you have the right to
lodge a complaint with a supervisory authority, in particular in the Member State of
your habitual residence, place of work or place of the alleged infringement, if the
data subject considers that the processing of personal data relating to him or her
infringes this Regulation.
(11) Right to an effective judicial remedy
Without prejudice to any available
administrative or non-judicial remedy, including the right to lodge a complaint with
a supervisory authority pursuant to Article 77 of the GDPR, you have the right to an
effective judicial remedy, where you consider that your rights under this Regulation
have been infringed as a result of the processing of your personal data in
non-compliance with this Regulation.
