Privacy policy

1. General

1.1 What is personal data

Personal data is information that discloses or can disclose the user's identity. We adhere to the principle of data avoidance. Therefore, as far as possible, we refrain from collecting personal data.

1.2 Handling of personal data

Personal data is used exclusively to establish the contract, define its content, and implement or process the contractual relationship (Art. 6 (1 b) GDPR).

Beyond that, personal data will only be processed if we have received your consent to do so (Art. 6 (1 a) GDPR) or if it is data whose processing is necessary for our legitimate interests and insofar as the balancing process shows that no overriding interests, fundamental rights or freedoms on your part are opposed (Art. 6 (1 f) GDPR).

We may use order processors to process your personal data, but will not pass on the personal data to third parties beyond this as a matter of principle.

Only for the fulfillment of the contract the data will be passed on to the shipping company commissioned with the delivery, insofar as this is necessary for the delivery of ordered goods. The payment data required for the processing of payments

The processing of your personal data takes place exclusively within the E.U., unless otherwise stated below.

1.3 Usage data

When visiting the website and App, general technical information is collected. This is the I.P. address used, time, duration of the visit, browser or device type and, if applicable, the page of origin. This usage data is registered in a log file for technical reasons and can be used and stored for the purpose of statistical evaluation of this website or App. A linkage of this usage data with your other personal data does not take place.

1.4 Registration data

Registration is required for the extensive use of our website or App functions. The registration data is collected through your corresponding entries and used for the expressly stated purpose by your consent (Art. 6 (1 f) GDPR).

1.5 Data access

Through your consent after downloading the App, we gain access to the following types of data:

  • End device
  • Type of the end device
  • Time zone
  • Country of origin
  • Photos/media/data
  • Camera

This data is required for the user's assignment and our app's functions. In particular, however, it is also intended to prevent misuse by the user.

1.6 Push Services

Our App also uses push services of the operating system manufacturers. After downloading the App, the mobile device registers with the corresponding push service of the platform (iOS - Apple Push Notification Service; Android - Google Cloud Messaging). The service then sends the registration I.D. (Android) or token (iOS) to the registered device; the I.D. or receipt is sent by the App to the server and stored there in a database. If a push notification is to be sent, the server sends the desired message with registration I.D./token to the platform's push service, which forwards the push message to the respective devices.

We use push notifications to inform you about events within the App that may require your special attention or a response on your part.

Consent is requested during initial setup of the App and/or later on occasion.

You can suspend receiving push notifications when not using the App by explicitly logging out of the App. Through the operating system, you can revoke consent to receive push notifications as follows:

iOS/Settings/[Name of App]/Messages
Android/Settings/Applications/Application Manager/[Name of App]/Notifications

1.7 Duration of storage

We store your personal data after the termination of the purpose for which the data was collected only as long as required by law (especially tax law).

Here, no data transfer takes place by calling up our website or App. To avoid unnecessary data transfer, we recommend logging out of the respective third-party provider before using a corresponding link, so the third-party provider cannot create that usage profiles simply by using the link.

7.4 Use of Youtube

This website, our App and the integrated offers contain so-called embeddings of videos on YouTube. These enable the connection to YouTube and the videos stored there. YouTube is an offer of Google Ireland Limited, Gordon House, Barrow Street, Dublin 4, Ireland ("Google"). The use of YouTube takes place only with your consent (Art. 6 (1 a) GDPR). For the purpose and scope of data collection and use by Google, as well as your rights and settings GDPR for protection as a customer of YouTube, please refer to the privacy policy of YouTube.

7.7 Google Translate

Suppose you use our translation tool on our platform. In that case, you also agree that we transmit the entries in the text field to Google Ireland Limited, Gordon House, Barrow Street, Dublin 4, Ireland (Google Translate) to arrange for a translation of this text so that it can be displayed on our website. You then also agree according to Art. 49 (1 a) GDPR that Google will process your data in the USA.

Accordingly, the data processing and/or data transfer will take place outside the European Union, Andorra, Argentina, Canada (only for commercial organizations), Faroe Islands, Guernsey, Israel, Isle of Man, Jersey, New Zealand, Switzerland, Uruguay, Japan and the United Kingdom. However, only for these countries, except for the countries of the European Union which are classified as safe anyway, there is an adequacy decision (Art. 45 GDPR) of the European Commission regarding the data transfer. Therefore, data transfer to other countries is at least not explicitly permitted. If a data transfer is to take place, the processor must ensure by other means that the personal data are adequately protected at the recipient. This can be done through the use of standard data protection clauses (Art. 46 GDPR), in the case of data transfers within a corporate group through so-called Binding Corporate Rules, through an obligation to comply with codes of conduct that have been declared generally applicable by the Commission, or through certification of the processing operation. The standard contractual clauses adopted by the European Commission can be found here: https://eur-lex.europa.eu/eli/dec_impl/2021/914

The European Court of Justice assesses the United States as a country with insufficient data protection by E.U. standards. In particular, there is a risk that your data may be processed by U.S. authorities, for control and for monitoring purposes, possibly without redress. If you do not consent, the transfer described above will not occur, but you will also not be able to use the translation tool. Google Translate is only used with your consent (Art. 6 (1 a) GDPR).

Please note that Google grants itself a license to your texts and that you also agree to this when you use the translation tool.

7.8 Google reCAPTCHA

We use "Google reCAPTCHA" (hereinafter referred to as "reCAPTCHA") on this website. The provider is Google Ireland Limited ("Google"), Gordon House, Barrow Street, Dublin 4, Ireland.

The purpose of reCAPTCHA is to determine whether data entered on this website (e.g., information entered into a contact form) is being provided by a human user or by an automated program. To determine this, reCAPTCHA analyzes the behavior of the website visitors based on a variety of parameters. This analysis is triggered automatically as soon as the website visitor enters the site. For this analysis, reCAPTCHA evaluates a variety of data (e.g., IP address, time the website visitor spent on the site or cursor movements initiated by the user). The data tracked during such analyses are forwarded to Google.

reCAPTCHA analyses run entirely in the background. Website visitors are not alerted that an analysis is underway.

Data are stored and analyzed on the basis of Art. 6(1)(f) GDPR. The website operator has a legitimate interest in the protection of the operator’s websites against abusive automated spying and against SPAM. If appropriate consent has been obtained, the processing is carried out exclusively on the basis of Art. 6(1)(a) GDPR and § 25 (1) TTDSG, insofar the consent includes the storage of cookies or the access to information in the user’s end device (e.g., device fingerprinting) within the meaning of the TTDSG. This consent can be revoked at any time.

For more information about Google reCAPTCHA please refer to the Google Data Privacy Declaration and Terms Of Use under the following links: https://policies.google.com/privacy?hl=en and https://policies.google.com/terms?hl=en.
