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

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.
Collection and processing when using the contact form
When you use the contact form we will
only collect your personal data (name, email address, message text) in
the scope provided by you. The data processing is for the purpose of
making contact.
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.

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

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.

service providers, service providers for handling the order and IT

Our website uses the ‘Käufersiegel’
customer rating tool by Händlerbund Management AG (Torgauer Straße 233

evaluate and comment on your purchase with us.
We will write to you for this purpose
via email, making use of the technical system of the provider of the
‘Käufersiegel’ rating tool in processing the order.
As part of this, your data is processed either with your consent or on the basis of our legitimate interests.
Processing is carried out on the basis
of Article 6(1)(a) GDPR with your consent, insofar as you have expressly
consented to the receipt of feedback requests. You can withdraw your
consent at any time using the corresponding link in the email, without
affecting the legality of the processing carried out with your consent
up to the withdrawal. Your email address will then be removed from the
distributor.
Processing is carried out without your
express consent on the basis of Article 6(1)(f) GDPR due to our
justified interest in truthful, verified evaluations of our services as
part of direct advertising. For this purpose we send you a feedback
request electronically for our own goods or services which you have
already purchased from us. Emails are sent to the address that we
obtained from you in the course of selling a good or service. The
sending of feedback requests is subject to the proviso that you have not
objected to the use of your email address.
You can object to this at
any time by notifying us. You will find the contact details for
exercising your right to object in our imprint. You can
also use the link provided in the feedback request. This will not
involve any costs other than transmission costs at basic tariffs.
The personal data saved for this purpose
in the technical system of the ‘Käufersiegel’ rating tool will be
deleted three months after the delivery of goods recorded for
evaluation.
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

order. 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 or the transport company without affecting the
legality of the processing carried out with your consent up to the
withdrawal.

the course of order processing for the purposes of contractual
processing. For this purpose your personal data as collected in the
course of the order will be sent to

Use of Google invisible reCAPTCHA
Our website uses the invisible reCAPTCHA service by eCAPTCHA der Google
Ireland Limited (Gordon House, Barrow Street, Dublin 4, Irland;
"Google"). This serves to distinguish whether the input was made by a
human or automatic machine processing. In the background, Google
collects and analyses usage data which is also used by invisible
reCaptcha to distinguish between regular users and bots. For this
purpose your input will be transmitted to Google and further used there.
In addition, the IP address and, where applicable, other data required
by Google for the invisible reCAPTCHA service will be transmitted to
Google. This data will be processed by Google within the European Union
and, where necessary, also in the USA.
For the USA, no adequacy decision from
the EU Commission is available. The data transfer will be based, inter
alia, on standard contractual clauses as appropriate guarantees for the
protection of personal data, available at
https://policies.google.com/privacy/frameworks.
The processing is carried out on the
basis of Article 6(1)(f) GDPR due to our legitimate interest in
protecting our website against automated spying, misuse and SPAM. 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.
