3. General Information on Data Processing

I.) Scope of Processing of Personal Data

We generally process personal data of our users only to the extent necessary to provide a functional webshop and our content and services. The processing of personal data of our users regularly takes place only with the user's consent. An exception applies in cases where obtaining prior consent is not possible for factual reasons and the processing of the data is required by legal regulations.

II.) Legal Basis for the Processing of Personal Data

If we obtain the consent of the data subject for processing operations of personal data, Art. 6 para. 1 sentence 1 lit. a GDPR serves as the legal basis.

When processing personal data necessary for the performance of a contract to which the data subject is a party, Art. 6 para. 1 sentence 1 lit. b GDPR serves as the legal basis. This also applies to processing operations necessary for carrying out pre-contractual measures.

If the processing of personal data is necessary for compliance with a legal obligation to which our company is subject, Art. 6 para. 1 sentence 1 lit. c GDPR serves as the legal basis.

If vital interests of the data subject or another natural person require the processing of personal data, Art. 6 para. 1 sentence 1 lit. d GDPR serves as the legal basis.

If processing is necessary for the purposes of the legitimate interests pursued by our company or a third party and the interests, fundamental rights and freedoms of the data subject do not override the first-mentioned interest, Art. 6 para. 1 sentence 1 lit. f GDPR serves as the legal basis for the processing.

III.) Data Deletion and Storage Duration

The personal data of the data subject will be deleted or blocked as soon as the purpose of storage no longer applies. Storage may also take place if this has been provided for by the European or national legislator in EU regulations, laws or other provisions to which the controller is subject. Blocking or deletion of the data also takes place when a storage period prescribed by the aforementioned standards expires, unless there is a necessity for further storage of the data for the conclusion or fulfillment of a contract.

4. Rights of the Data Subject

If your personal data is processed, you are a data subject within the meaning of the GDPR and you have the following rights vis-à-vis the controller:

I.) Right of Access (Art. 15 GDPR)

You have the right to request confirmation from us as to whether personal data concerning you is being processed.

  • If this is the case, you have a right of access to this data and the following information:
  • Processing purposes
  • Categories of personal data
  • Recipients or categories of recipients
  • Planned storage duration or the criteria for determining this duration
  • The existence of rights to rectification, erasure, restriction, or objection
  • Right to lodge a complaint with the competent supervisory authority
  • Where applicable, the origin of the data (if collected from a third party)
  • Where applicable, the existence of automated decision-making including profiling with meaningful information about the logic involved, the scope, and the expected impact
  • Where applicable, transfer of personal data to a third country or international organization

II.) Right to Rectification (Art. 16 GDPR)

If your personal data is incorrect or incomplete, you have the right to request immediate correction or completion of the personal data.

III.) Right to Restriction of Processing (Art. 18 GDPR)

If one of the following conditions is met, you have the right to request restriction of the processing of your personal data:
  • You contest the accuracy of your personal data, for a period enabling us to verify the accuracy of the personal data.
  • In the case of unlawful processing, you oppose the erasure of the personal data and request the restriction of their use instead.
  • We no longer need your personal data for the purposes of processing, but you require them for the establishment, exercise, or defense of legal claims, or
  • after you have objected to processing, for the duration of the assessment as to whether our legitimate grounds override yours.

IV.) Right to Erasure ("Right to be Forgotten") (Art. 17 GDPR)

If one of the following reasons applies, you have the right to request immediate deletion of your personal data:
  • Your data is no longer necessary for the purposes for which it was originally collected.
  • You withdraw your consent and there is no other legal basis for the processing.
  • You object to the processing and there are no overriding legitimate grounds for the processing, or you object according to Art. 21 para. 2 GDPR.
  • Your personal data has been unlawfully processed.
  • Erasure is required to comply with a legal obligation under Union or Member State law to which we are subject.
  • The personal data was collected in relation to information society services offered in accordance with Art. 8 para. 1 GDPR.

Please note that the above reasons do 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 or for the performance of a task carried out in the public interest to which we are subject.
  • For reasons of public interest in the area of public health.
  • For archiving purposes in the public interest, scientific or historical research purposes, or for statistical purposes.
  • For the establishment, exercise, or defense of legal claims.

V.) Right to Notification

If you have asserted the right to rectification, erasure, or restriction of processing against the controller, the controller is obliged to notify all recipients to whom the personal data concerning you has been disclosed of this rectification or erasure of data or restriction of processing, unless this proves impossible or involves disproportionate effort. You have the right to be informed about these recipients by the controller.

VI.) Right to Data Portability (Art. 20 GDPR)

You have the right to receive your personal data in a structured, commonly used, and machine-readable format or to request transmission to another controller.

VII.) Right to Object to Certain Data Processing (Art. 21 GDPR)

You have the right, for reasons arising from your particular situation, to object at any time to the processing of personal data concerning you that is based on Art. 6 para. 1 sentence 1 lit. e or f GDPR. This also applies to profiling based on these provisions. If your personal data is processed for direct marketing purposes, you have the right to object at any time to the processing of your personal data for such marketing purposes; this also applies to profiling to the extent that it is related to such direct marketing.

VIII.) Right to Withdraw Data Protection Consent

You have the right to withdraw your data protection consent at any time. The withdrawal of consent does not affect the lawfulness of processing based on consent before its withdrawal.

IX.) 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 does not apply if the decision is necessary for entering into, or performance of, a contract between you and the controller, is permitted by Union or Member State law to which the controller is subject and these laws contain appropriate measures to safeguard your rights and freedoms and your legitimate interests, or is based on your explicit consent.

However, such decisions must not be based on special categories of personal data under Art. 9 para. 1 GDPR, unless Art. 9 para. 2 lit. a or b GDPR applies and appropriate measures to protect the rights and freedoms and your legitimate interests have been taken. Regarding the cases mentioned in a. and c., the controller will take appropriate measures to safeguard the rights and freedoms and your legitimate interests, which include at least the right to obtain human intervention on the part of the controller, to express your own point of view, and to contest the decision.

X.) Right to Lodge a Complaint with a Supervisory Authority

Without prejudice to any other administrative or judicial remedy, you have the right to lodge a complaint with a supervisory authority if you believe that the processing of personal data relating to you infringes the GDPR. The supervisory authority with which the complaint has been lodged will inform the complainant of the progress and outcome of the complaint, including the possibility of a judicial remedy under Art. 78 GDPR. A list of the locally competent supervisory authorities in Germany can be found on the website of the Federal Commissioner for Data Protection at the following link: https://www.bfdi.bund.de/DE/Service/Anschriften/Laender/Laender-node.html

II.) Purpose of Data Processing

The temporary storage of the IP address by the system is necessary to enable delivery of the website to the user's computer. For this purpose, the user's IP address must remain stored for the duration of the session.

Storage in log files is carried out to ensure the functionality of the website. In addition, the data serves us to optimize the website and to ensure the security of our information technology systems. An evaluation of the data for marketing purposes does not take place in this context.

These purposes also constitute our legitimate interest in data processing pursuant to Art. 6 para. 1 sentence 1 lit. f GDPR.

III.) Legal Basis for Data Processing

The legal basis for the temporary storage of the data and the log files is Art. 6 para. 1 sentence 1 lit. f GDPR.

The data is deleted as soon as it is no longer necessary to achieve the purpose for which it was collected. In the case of data collection for the provision of the website, this is the case when the respective session is ended.

In the case of storage of data in log files, this is the case after no more than seven days. Further storage is possible. In this case, the IP addresses of the users are deleted or anonymized so that assignment of the calling client is no longer possible.

V.) Possibility of Objection

The collection of data for the provision of the website and the storage of data in log files is absolutely necessary for the operation of the website. The user may object. Whether the objection is successful must be determined within the scope of a balancing of interests.

    https://business.safety.google/gdpr/


I.) Duration of Storage

Your personal information will be stored as long as necessary to fulfill the purposes described in this privacy policy or as required by law.

II.) Transfer to Third Countries

When using plugins marked with third country transfer or USA, personal data may be transferred to servers in third countries outside the EU, such as the USA. The legal basis for this transfer is consent pursuant to Art. 6 para. 1 sentence 1 lit. a GDPR. The United States of America does not offer an adequate level of data protection based on a decision of the European Union. The main risk of the transfer is the obligation of plugin providers to make user data accessible to US authorities under certain circumstances. With all providers, there is currently a data processing agreement with standard contractual clauses to make the third country transfer as data protection-friendly and secure as possible. Adjustments to the ECJ ruling of 16.07.2020 (Schrems II, Ref. C-311/18) including additional security measures are currently being pursued by us. A copy of the standard contractual clauses can be requested from us by informal email.

III.) Possibility of Revocation

You have the right to withdraw your data protection consent at any time. The withdrawal of consent does not affect the lawfulness of processing based on consent before its withdrawal.

You can prevent the collection and processing of your personal data by the respective providers by blocking the storage of third-party cookies on your computer, using the "Do Not Track" function of a supported browser, disabling the execution of script code in your browser, or installing a script blocker such as NoScript (https://noscript.net/) or Ghostery (https://www.ghostery.com) in your browser.

IV.) Risk Notice

Your personal data is also transferred to the USA. There is no adequacy decision pursuant to Art. 45 para. 3 GDPR for the USA. We would like to point out that data transfer without an adequacy decision entails certain risks, which we would like to inform you about below: US intelligence services use certain online identifiers (such as the IP address or unique identifiers) as a starting point for monitoring individuals. In particular, it cannot be ruled out that these intelligence services have already collected information about you that can be used to trace the data transferred here back to you. Providers of electronic communication services headquartered in the USA are subject to surveillance by US intelligence services under 50 U.S. Code § 1881a (“FISA 702”). Accordingly, providers of electronic communication services headquartered in the USA are obliged to make personal data available to US authorities under 50 U.S. Code § 1881a, without you possibly having any legal remedies. Even encryption of the data in the data centers of the provider of electronic communication services cannot provide adequate protection, as a provider of electronic communication services with regard to imported data that is in its possession or custody or under its control has a direct obligation to grant access to or disclose it. This obligation may expressly extend to cryptographic keys without which the data is unreadable. The fact that this is not merely a "theoretical risk" is shown by the ECJ judgment of July 16, 2020 (Case C 311/18, "Schrems II"). We have concluded guarantees with Google in the form of standard contractual clauses pursuant to Art. 46 para. 2 lit. c GDPR. A copy of the standard contractual clauses can be requested from us.
