Privacy

Thank you for your interest in our website. The protection of your privacy is very important to us. Below you will find detailed information on how we process your data.

Storage of access data in server log files

You can visit our website without providing any personal information. We only store access data in so-called server log files, such as the name of the requested file, the date and time of the request, the amount of data transferred and the requesting provider. These data are evaluated exclusively to ensure trouble-free operation of the site and to improve our services and do not allow us to draw any conclusions about your person.

Collection and use of data for contract processing and opening a customer account

We collect personal data when you voluntarily provide them to us in the context of your order, when you contact us (e.g. via contact form or email) or when you open a customer account. The data collected can be seen in the respective input forms. The data provided by you are used for the execution of the contract and the handling of your requests. After completion of the contract processing or deletion of your customer account, your data will be blocked for further use and deleted after expiry of the retention periods provided for by tax and commercial law, unless you have expressly consented to further use of your data or we reserve the right to use the data beyond what is permitted by law and of which we inform you below. Deletion of the customer account is possible at any time and can be done by sending us a message (contact details in the "Contact" section) or by using the appropriate function in the customer account.

Data transfer for contract fulfilment

For the fulfilment of the contract, we transfer your data to the forwarding agent in charge of delivery, insofar as this is necessary for the delivery of the ordered goods. Depending on the payment service provider selected by you in the order process, we transmit the payment data collected for this purpose to the credit institution in charge of payment and, if applicable, to the payment service providers commissioned by us or the payment service selected. In some cases, the selected payment service providers collect this data themselves if you create an account with them. In this case, you must register with the payment service provider with your access data during the ordering process. In this regard, the data protection declaration of the respective payment service provider applies.

Use of data when registering for the e-mail newsletter

If you register for our newsletter, we will use the data required for this purpose or provided separately by you to send you our email newsletter on a regular basis in accordance with your consent. You can unsubscribe from the newsletter at any time by sending us a message (contact details in the "Contact" section) or via link provided for this purpose in the newsletter.

Use of data for postal advertising and your right to object

We reserve the right to store your first name and surname, your postal address and - insofar as we have received this additional information from you within the scope of the contractual relationship - your educational qualification, degree, year of birth and your profession, industry or company name in summary lists and to use them for our own advertising purposes, e.g. to send you interesting offers and information about our products by post. You can object to the storage and use of your data for these purposes at any time by sending us a message (contact details in the "Contact" section).

Use of cookies

In order to make your visit to our website more interesting and to enable the use of certain functions, we use so-called cookies on various pages.

Use of Google (Universal) Analytics for web analysis

This website uses Google (Universal) Analytics, a web analysis service provided by Google, Inc (www.google.de). Google (Universal) Analytics uses methods that enable an analysis of your use of the website, such as so-called "cookies", text files that are stored on your computer.

Only in exceptional cases is the full IP address transmitted to a Google server in the USA and abbreviated there. The anonymous IP address transmitted by your browser within the scope of Google Analytics is not merged with other Google data.
