If you have consented to data processing, we process your personal data on the basis of Art. 6(1)(a) GDPR or, where special categories of data under Art. 9(1) GDPR are processed, Art. 9(2)(a) GDPR.

Recipients of Personal Data

In the course of our business activities, we work with various external service providers. In some cases, it is necessary to transfer personal data to these external parties. We only pass on personal data to external parties where this is required to perform a contract, where we are legally obliged to do so (e.g., disclosure to tax authorities), where we have a legitimate interest under Art. 6(1)(f) GDPR in the disclosure, or where another legal basis permits the disclosure. When engaging processors, we only pass on personal data of our customers on the basis of a valid data processing agreement. In the case of joint processing, an agreement on joint processing is concluded.

Withdrawal of Your Consent to Data Processing

Many data processing operations are only possible with your express consent. You may revoke any consent you have given at any time. The revocation does not affect the lawfulness of data processing carried out before the revocation.

Right to Object to Data Collection in Special Cases and to Direct Marketing (Art. 21 GDPR)

IF DATA PROCESSING IS BASED ON ART. 6(1)(E) OR (F) GDPR, YOU HAVE THE RIGHT TO OBJECT AT ANY TIME, ON GROUNDS RELATING TO YOUR PARTICULAR SITUATION, TO THE PROCESSING OF YOUR PERSONAL DATA; THIS ALSO APPLIES TO PROFILING BASED ON THESE PROVISIONS. THE RESPECTIVE LEGAL BASIS ON WHICH PROCESSING IS BASED IS STATED IN THIS PRIVACY POLICY. IF YOU OBJECT, WE WILL NO LONGER PROCESS YOUR AFFECTED PERSONAL DATA, UNLESS WE CAN DEMONSTRATE COMPELLING LEGITIMATE GROUNDS FOR THE PROCESSING WHICH OVERRIDE YOUR INTERESTS, RIGHTS AND FREEDOMS, OR THE PROCESSING SERVES THE ESTABLISHMENT, EXERCISE OR DEFENSE OF LEGAL CLAIMS (OBJECTION PURSUANT TO ART. 21(1) GDPR).

IF YOUR PERSONAL DATA IS PROCESSED FOR DIRECT MARKETING PURPOSES, YOU HAVE THE RIGHT TO OBJECT AT ANY TIME TO THE PROCESSING OF PERSONAL DATA CONCERNING YOU FOR SUCH MARKETING; THIS ALSO APPLIES TO PROFILING TO THE EXTENT THAT IT IS RELATED TO SUCH DIRECT MARKETING. IF YOU OBJECT, YOUR PERSONAL DATA WILL SUBSEQUENTLY NO LONGER BE USED FOR DIRECT MARKETING PURPOSES (OBJECTION PURSUANT TO ART. 21(2) GDPR).

Right to Lodge a Complaint with the Competent Supervisory Authority

In the event of a breach 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, their place of work or the place of the alleged infringement. This right is without prejudice to any other administrative or judicial remedies.

Right to Data Portability

You have the right to have data that we process automatically on the basis of your consent or for the performance of a contract handed over to you or to a third party in a commonly used, machine-readable format. If you request that the data be transferred directly to another controller, this will only be done where technically feasible.

Right of Access, Rectification and Erasure

Within the framework of the applicable statutory provisions, you have the right at any time to obtain free-of-charge information about your stored personal data, its origin and recipients, and the purpose of the data processing, as well as, where applicable, a right to rectification or erasure of this data. For this and any other questions on personal data, you may contact us at any time.

Right to Restriction of Processing

You have the right to request restriction of the processing of your personal data. You may contact us at any time for this purpose. The right to restriction of processing applies in the following cases:

  • If you dispute the accuracy of the personal data we hold about you, we generally need time to verify it. For the duration of the review, you have the right to request restriction of the processing of your personal data.

  • If the processing of your personal data is or was unlawful, you may request restriction of processing instead of erasure.

  • If we no longer need your personal data, but you require it to exercise, defend or establish legal claims, you have the right to request restriction of processing instead of erasure.

  • If you have lodged an objection pursuant to Art. 21(1) GDPR, a balancing of your interests against ours must be carried out. As long as it has not been determined whose interests prevail, you have the right to request restriction of the processing of your personal data.

Where the processing of your personal data has been restricted, such data may, apart from being stored, only be processed with your consent, for the establishment, exercise or defense 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 of a Member State.

SSL/TLS Encryption

For security reasons and to protect the transmission of confidential content, such as orders or inquiries you send to us as the site operator, this site uses SSL/TLS encryption. You can recognize an encrypted connection by the browser address changing from "http://" to "https://" and by the padlock symbol in your browser's address bar.

If SSL/TLS encryption is enabled, the data you transmit to us cannot be read by third parties.

Objection to Promotional Emails

The operators of these pages expressly reserve the right to take legal action in the event of unsolicited advertising, such as spam emails.

4. Data Collection on This Website


Cookies

Our website uses so-called "cookies". Cookies are small data packets and do not cause any harm to your device. They are stored on your device either temporarily for the duration of a session (session cookies) or permanently (persistent cookies). Session cookies are deleted automatically after your visit ends. Persistent cookies remain stored on your device until you delete them yourself or your web browser deletes them automatically.

Cookies may originate from us (first-party cookies) or from third-party companies (so-called third-party cookies). Third-party cookies enable certain services of third-party companies to be integrated within websites (e.g., cookies for processing payment services).

Cookies serve various functions. Many cookies are technically necessary, as certain website functions would not work without them (e.g., the shopping cart function or the display of videos). Other cookies may be used to analyze user behavior or for advertising purposes.

Cookies required to carry out the electronic communication process, to provide certain functions you have requested (e.g., the shopping cart function), or to optimize the website (e.g., cookies for measuring website audience) (necessary cookies) are stored on the basis of Art. 6(1)(f) GDPR, unless another legal basis is specified. The website operator has a legitimate interest in storing necessary cookies to provide its services in a technically error-free and optimized manner. Where consent to the storage of cookies and comparable recognition technologies has been requested, processing takes place exclusively on the basis of that consent (Art. 6(1)(a) GDPR and § 25(1) TDDDG); consent can be revoked at any time.

You can set your browser to inform you about the setting of cookies, to allow cookies only on a case-by-case basis, to exclude the acceptance of cookies in certain cases or in general, and to activate the automatic deletion of cookies when you close the browser. If cookies are deactivated, the functionality of this website may be restricted.

Where further cookies and services are used on this website, this is described in this privacy policy.

Inquiries by Email, Phone or Fax

If you contact us by email, phone or fax, your inquiry, including all personal data arising from it (name, content of the inquiry), will be stored and processed by us for the purpose of handling your request. We will not pass this data on without your consent.

The processing of this data is based on Art. 6(1)(b) GDPR where your inquiry relates to the performance of a contract or is necessary for pre-contractual measures. In all other cases, processing is based on our legitimate interest in handling inquiries efficiently (Art. 6(1)(f) GDPR) or, where requested, on your consent (Art. 6(1)(a) GDPR); consent can be revoked at any time.

The data you send us through contact inquiries remains with us until you ask us to delete it, revoke your consent to storage, or the purpose of storing the data no longer applies (e.g., after your request has been fully processed). Mandatory statutory provisions, in particular statutory retention periods, remain unaffected.
