Data protection declaration

Data protection declaration
Unless stated otherwise below, the provision of your personal data is neither legally nor contractually obligatory, nor required for conclusion
of a contract. You are not obliged to provide your data. Not providing it will have no consequences. This only applies as long as the
processing procedures below do not state otherwise.
“Personal data” is any information relating to an identified or identifiable natural person.

Server log files
You can use our websites without submitting personal data.
Every time our website is accessed, user data is transferred to us or our web hosts/IT service providers by your internet browser and stored
in server log files. This stored data includes for example the name of the site called up, date and time of the request, the IP address,
amount of data transferred and the provider making the request. The processing is carried out on the basis of Article 6(1) f) GDPR due to
our legitimate interests in ensuring the smooth operation of our website as well as improving our services.
Your data may be transferred to third countries outside the European Union for which an adequacy decision has been made by the EU
Commission. In the absence of an adequacy decision by the EU Commission, such as for transfers to the USA, the data transfers will be
based on standard contractual clauses as appropriate guarantees for the protection of personal data, among other things, available at:

Contact
Responsible person
Contact us at any time. The contact details of the person responsible for data processing can be found in our legal notice.

Proactive contact of the customer by e-mail
If you make contact with us proactively via email, we shall collect your personal data (name, email address, message text) only to the extent
provided by you. The purpose of the data processing is to handle and respond to your contact request.
If the initial contact serves to implement pre-contractual measures (e.g. consultation in the case of purchase interest, order creation) or
concerns an agreement already concluded between you and us, this data processing takes place on the basis of Article 6(1)(b) GDPR.
If the initial contact occurs for other reasons, this data processing takes place on the basis of Article 6(1)(f) GDPR for the purposes of our
overriding, legitimate interest in handling and responding to your request. In this case, on grounds relating to your particular situation,
you have the right to object at any time to this processing of personal data concerning you and carried out on the basis of Article
6(1)(f) GDPR.
We will only use your email address to process your request. Your data will subsequently be deleted in compliance with statutory retention
periods, unless you have agreed to further processing and use.

Customer account Orders
Customer account
When you open a customer account, we will collect your personal data in the scope given there. The data processing is for the purpose of
improving your shopping experience and simplifying order processing. The processing will be carried out on the basis of art. 6 (1) lit. a
GDPR with your consent. You can withdraw your consent at any time by contacting us without affecting the legality of the processing carried
out with your consent up to the withdrawal. Your customer account will then be deleted.
Collection, processing, and transfer of personal data in orders
When you submit an order we only collect and use your personal data insofar as this is necessary for the fulfilment and handling of your
order as well as processing of your queries. The provision of data is necessary for conclusion of a contract. Failure to provide it will prevent
the conclusion of any contract. The processing will occur on the basis of Article 6(1) b) GDPR and is required for the fulfilment of a contract
with you.
Your data is transferred here for example to the shipping companies and dropshipping providers, payment service providers, service
providers for handling the order and IT service providers that you have selected. We will comply strictly with legal requirements in every
case. The scope of data transmission is restricted to a minimum.
Your data may be transferred to third countries outside the European Union for which an adequacy decision has been made by the EU
Commission. In the absence of an adequacy decision by the EU Commission, such as for transfers to the USA, the data transfers will be
based on standard contractual clauses as appropriate guarantees for the protection of personal data, among other things, available at:
https://ec.europa.eu/info/law/law-topic/data-protection/international-dimension-data-protection/standard-contractual-clauses-scc_de

Use of your email address for mailing of newsletters
We use your email address outside of contractual processing exclusively to send you a newsletter for our own marketing purposes, if you
have explicitly agreed to this. The processing will be carried out on the basis of art. 6 (1) lit. a GDPR with your consent. You can withdraw
your consent at any time without affecting the legality of the processing carried out with your consent up to the withdrawal. You can
unsubscribe from the newsletter at any time using the relevant link in the newsletter or by contacting us. Your email address will then be

Analysis
Use of the Google Analytics
Our website uses the web analysis service Google Analytics from Google Ireland Limited (Gordon House, Barrow Street, Dublin 4, Ireland;
“Google”).
The processing of data serves to analyse this website and its visitors and for marketing and advertising purposes. Google will use this
information on behalf of the operator of this website to evaluate your use of the website, to compile reports on website activity and to
provide other services to the website operator relating to website and internet use. In this process the following information, inter alia, can
be collected: IP address, date and time of the website access, click path, information on the browser and the device you are using, the
pages visited, referrer URL (website via which you accessed our website), location data, purchasing activities. The IP address transmitted
from your browser within the scope of Google Analytics is not associated with any other data held by Google. Google Analytics uses
technology such as cookies, web storage in the browser, and tracking pixels which enable an analysis of your use of the website. The
information generated by these regarding your use of this website is usually transferred to a Google server in the USA and stored
there. Google relies on standard contractual clauses as suitable guarantees for the protection of personal data, available
at: https://policies.google.com/privacy/frameworks and https://business.safety.google/adsprocessorterms/.Both Google and the US
government authorities have access to your data. Google may combine your data with other data, such as your search history, personal
accounts, usage data from other devices and any other information Google has about you.
IP anonymisation is activated on this website. Google uses this to shorten your IP address beforehand within Member States of the
European Union or in other signatories to the Agreement on the European Economic Area. Only in exceptional cases will the full IP address
be transferred to a Google server in the USA and shortened there.
The processing of your personal data is based on Art. 6 para. 1 lit. f GDPR due to our overriding legitimate interest in the needs-based and
targeted design of the website. On grounds relating to your particular situation, you have the right to object at any time to this
processing of personal data concerning you.

You can also prevent the collection of the data (including your IP address) generated by Google Analytics and related to your use of the
website by Google as well as the processing of this data by Google by downloading and installing the browser plug-in available at the
following link [https://tools.google.com/dlpage/gaoptout?hl=de]. To prevent the data collection and storage by Google Analytics across
multiple devices you can place an opt-out cookie. Opt-out cookies prevent the future collection of your data when you visit this website. You
need to implement the opt-out on all systems and devices that you are using, so that this works comprehensively. If you delete the opt-out
cookie, requests will be transmitted to Google again. When you click here the opt-out cookie will be placed: Deactivate Google Analytics.

Plug-ins
Use of social plug-ins via the “2-click solution”
Our website uses social network plug-ins via the “2-click solution”. No connection is made to the social network servers and no data
submitted without your explicit consent.Standard integration of plug-ins set up a connection between your computer and the provider’s
servers when you call up pages on our website which contain such a plugin, allowing the plug-in to be shown on the web page by a notice
sent to your browser. Both your IP address and the fact that you have visited our web pages are transmitted to the provider’s servers. This
happens regardless of whether you are registered with or logged into the social network. The information is transferred even if users are
not registered or logged in. If you are also logged into the social network, this information is also assigned to your user profile. When you
use plug-in functions (e.g. activate the button) this information is also assigned to your user account, which you can only prevent by logging
out before using the plug-in. To ensure that you retain control over your data we have decided to initially deactivate the corresponding
button. This is shown by the greyed-out button. No connection is made to the social network servers and no data submitted without your
explicit consent – in the form of activation of the button.Only when you activate the button does it become active (highlighted) and set up a
direct connection to the social network’s servers.By logging in, you give your permission for the transfer of your data to the respective social
media provider. At this time, information such as your IP address and which websites you have visited is transmitted. Should you be
connected simultaneously with one or more of your social network accounts, the information collected is also assigned to your
corresponding profiles. Therefore, you can only prevent this assignment by logging yourself out before visiting our website and before
activating the button for your social media accounts.

The social networks listed below are integrated with the “2-click function”. You can find more detailed information on the scope and purpose
of collection and use of the data, your associated rights and options for protecting your privacy in the provider’s privacy policy via the link.

plug-in on the site by means of a message in your browser. Information such as your IP address and which websites you have visited will be
transmitted to the Vimeo server.

manner. On grounds relating to your particular situation, you have the right to object at any time to this processing of personal
data concerning you and carried out in accordance with Article 6(1)(f) GDPR.
