We use session cookies, which are automatically deleted by your browser immediately after you leave the website. In the area of web analysis, we also use permanent cookies.

You have the option of preventing the setting of cookies by making the appropriate settings in your browser. However, we would like to point out that the use of our website may then only be possible to a limited extent. Cookies do not install or start any programs or other applications on your computer.

Google Analytics

This website uses Google Analytics, a web analysis service of Google Inc. (“Google”). Google Analytics uses so-called “cookies”, text files that are stored on your computer and enable an analysis of your use of the website…

Please note the further information from Google on the following website where you can also download the add-on:

Further information on the terms of use and data protection can be found at http://www.google.com/analytics/terms/de.html or at https://www.google.de/intl/de/policies/

Use of Facebook plugins

We use a plugin from the social network Facebook (the operator of the website Facebook.de is Facebook Ireland Limited Hanover Reach, 5-7 Hanover Quay, Dublin 2 Ireland). This is the so-called “Like button”, which we use in connection with our website. This button enables Facebook users to publish information about our website or our Facebook page in their Facebook profile. The publication is then visible to third parties, depending on the privacy settings selected on the Facebook page. If you are a registered user on Facebook and are logged into your account, the plugin is displayed when you access the respective page and a connection to the Facebook servers is automatically established. Data is transmitted to Facebook during this process. This is particularly the URL of the website on which the plugin can be found. Facebook, in turn, can assign this data to your Facebook profile. If you actively use the plugin, the data from our website is transmitted to Facebook, assigned to your Facebook profile and published on your profile page on Facebook, which results in this data being stored on Facebook. To prevent any data from being transmitted to Facebook when you visit our website, we recommend that you log out of Facebook beforehand. If you have used the plugin and data has been published in your Facebook profile, you can delete this entry from your profile again.
Please also refer to the Facebook website for information on the collection, use, storage and processing of your personal data.

Use of the Tweet button

We use a plugin from Twitter (the operator of the website twitter.com is Twitter Inc., 795 Folsom St. Suite 600, San Francisco, CA 94107, USA). This is the so-called “Tweet button”, which we use in connection with our website. This button enables Twitter users to publish information about our website in their Twitter profile. The publication is then visible to third parties, depending on the privacy settings selected on the Twitter page. If you are a registered user on Twitter and are logged into your account, the plugin is displayed when you access the respective page and a connection to the Twitter servers is automatically established. Data is transmitted to Twitter during this process. This is particularly the URL of the website on which the plugin can be found. Twitter, in turn, can assign this data to your Twitter profile. If you actively use the plugin, the data from our website is transmitted to Twitter, assigned to your Twitter profile and published on your profile page on Twitter, which results in this data being stored on Twitter. To prevent any data from being transmitted to Twitter when you visit our website, we recommend that you log out of Twitter beforehand. If you have used the plugin and data has been published in your Twitter profile, you can delete this entry from your profile again.
Please also refer to the Twitter website for information on the collection, use, storage and processing of your personal data.

Data security

For security reasons and to protect the transmission of confidential content, such as requests or orders that you send to us as the site operator, this site uses SSL encryption. You can recognize an encrypted connection by the fact that the address line of the browser changes from “http://” to “https://” and by the lock symbol in your browser line. If SSL encryption is activated, the data that you transmit to us cannot be read by third parties.

Purposes of processing personal data

We process the aforementioned data for the operation of our website and to fulfill contractual obligations towards our customers.
In the case of inquiries from you outside of an active customer relationship, we process the data for the purposes of sales and advertising. You can object to the use of your personal data for advertising purposes at any time.

Voluntary information

Insofar as you voluntarily provide us with data, e.g. in forms, and this is not necessary for the fulfillment of our contractual obligations, we process this data on the basis of the assumption that the processing and use of this data is in your interest.

Recipients / Disclosure of data

Your data will be passed on to the shipping company commissioned with the delivery in the event of an order, insofar as this is necessary for the delivery of the goods. To process payments, we pass on your payment data to the credit institution commissioned with the payment.
Further data that you provide to us will generally not be passed on to third parties. In particular, your data will not be passed on to third parties for their advertising purposes.
However, we may use service providers for the operation of these internet pages or for other services from us. Here it can happen or be necessary that a service provider receives knowledge of personal data. We select our service providers carefully – especially with regard to data protection and data security – and take all data protection measures required by law for permissible data processing.

Data processing outside the European Union

With the exception of the use of Google Analytics, your personal data is not processed (by us) in a so-called third country outside the European Union.
