Note on the transfer of data to the USA

Tools from companies based in the USA, for example, are integrated in our website. When these tools are active, your personal data may be transferred to the US servers of the respective companies. Please note that the USA is not a safe third country in the sense of EU data protection law. US companies are obliged to hand over personal data to security authorities without you as a data subject being able to take legal action against this. It therefore not possible to rule out the US authorities (e.g. intelligence services) processing, evaluating and permanently storing your data located on US servers for surveillance purposes. We have no influence over these processing activities.

Revoking your consent to data processing

Many data processing procedures are only possible with your express consent. After providing your consent, you can withdraw this at any time. The legality of any data processing that took place prior to consent being revoked remains unaffected.

Right to object to the collection of data in specific cases and to direct marketing (Art. 21 GDPR)


IF DATA PROCESSING TAKES PLACE ON THE BASIS OF ART. 6 PARA. 1 LIT. E OR F GDPR, YOU HAVE THE RIGHT TO OBJECT TO THE PROCESSING OF YOUR PERSONAL DATA AT ANY TIME FOR REASONS ARISING FROM YOUR PARTICULAR SITUATION; THIS ALSO APPLIES TO PROFILING BASED ON THESE PROVISIONS. THE RESPECTIVE LEGAL BASIS ON WHICH PROCESSING IS BASED CAN BE FOUND IN THIS DATA PROTECTION DECLARATION. IF YOU REGISTER AN OBJECTION, WE WILL NO LONGER PROCESS YOUR PERSONAL DATA UNLESS WE CAN VERIFY COMPELLING LEGITIMATE GROUNDS FOR THE PROCESSING, THAT OUTWEIGH YOUR INTERESTS, RIGHTS AND FREEDOMS, OR IF THE PROCESSING SERVES THE ASSERTION, EXERCISING OR DEFENCE OF LEGAL CLAIMS (OBJECTION PER ART. 21 PARA. 1 GDPR).

IF YOUR PERSONAL DATA ARE PROCESSED FOR THE PURPOSE OF DIRECT MARKETING, YOU HAVE THE RIGHT TO OBJECT AT ANY TIME TO THE PROCESSING OF PERSONAL DATA CONCERNING YOU FOR THE PURPOSE OF SUCH MARKETING, INCLUDING PROFILING, INSOFAR AS THIS RELATES TO SUCH DIRECT MARKETING. IF YOU OBJECT, YOUR PERSONAL DATA WILL SUBSEQUENTLY NO LONGER BE USED FOR THE PURPOSE OF DIRECT MARKETING (OBJECTION PURSUANT TO ART. 21 PARA. 2 GDPR).

Right to appeal to the regulatory authority responsible

In the event of breaches of the GDPR, data subjects shall have a right of appeal to a supervisory authority, in particular in the Member State of their habitual residence, place of work or the place of the alleged breach. The right of appeal is without prejudice to any other administrative or judicial remedy.

The right to data portability

You have the right to demand that we furnish you or a third party with data that we process by automated means on the basis of your consent or in order to fulfil a contract, in conventional, machine-readable format. If you demand direct transmission of the data to another responsible party, this shall only take place insofar as this is technically feasible.

SSL or TLS encryption

This site uses SSL or TLS encryption for reasons of security and to protect the transmission of confidential contents, for example orders or inquiries sent by you to us as the site operator. You can recognise an encrypted connection by the fact that the start of the address line of the browser will change from "http://" to "https://" and the lock symbol will appear in your browser line.

If SSL or TLS encryption is active, the data that you transmit to us cannot be read by third parties.

Information, deletion and correction

Within the framework of the valid legal provisions, you have the right to demand information on your saved personal data at any time along with its origin and recipients and the purpose of the data processing, free of charge. You are also entitled to demand that the data be corrected if necessary, or deleted. For further information on personal data, you can contact us at any time at the address given in the legal notices section.

Right to restriction of processing

You have the right to request the restriction of the processing of your personal data. To do this, you can contact us at any time at the address given in the Legal Notice. The right to restrict processing exists in the following cases:

  • If you dispute the accuracy of the personal data we hold about you, we will usually need time to verify this. You have the right to request the restriction of the processing of your personal data for the duration of the investigation.
  • If the processing of your personal data has taken place / is taking place unlawfully, you may request restriction of data processing instead of erasure.
  • If we no longer need your personal data, but you need it for the exercising, defence or assertion of legal claims, you have the right to request the restriction of the processing of your personal data instead of its deletion.
  • If you have lodged an objection in accordance with Art. 21 para. 1 GDPR, a balancing of your and our interests must be carried out. You have the right to request the restriction of the processing of your personal data for the duration of the investigation.

If you have restricted the processing of personal data concerning you, such data may only be processed - with the exception of its storage - with your consent or for the purpose of asserting, exercising or defending legal claims or protecting the rights of another natural or legal entity, or on grounds of an important public interest of the European Union or a Member State.

Cookies

Our website uses "cookies". Cookies are small text files and do not cause any damage to your end device. They are stored either temporarily for the duration of a session (session cookies) or permanently (permanent cookies) on your end device. Session cookies are automatically deleted at the end of your visit. Permanent cookies remain stored on your end device until you delete them yourself or until they are automatically deleted by your web browser.

In some cases, cookies from third-party companies may also be stored on your end device when you enter our site (third-party cookies). These enable us or you to use certain services of the third-party company (e.g. cookies for processing payment services).

Cookies have various functions. Many cookies are technically necessary, as certain website functions would not work without them (e.g. the shopping basket function or the display of videos). Other cookies are used to evaluate user behaviour or display advertising.

Cookies that are necessary to carry out the electronic communication process (essential cookies) or to provide certain functions that you have requested (functional cookies, e.g. for the shopping basket) or to optimise the website (e.g. cookies to measure the web audience) are stored on the basis of Art. 6 (1) lit. f GDPR unless another legal basis is specified. The website operator has a justified interest in the storage of cookies for the technically faultless and optimised provision of their services. If consent to the storage of cookies has been requested, the storage of the cookies in question is based exclusively on this consent (Art. 6 para. 1 lit. a GDPR); consent can be revoked at any time.

You can set your browser so that you are informed about the setting of cookies and only allow cookies in individual cases, exclude the acceptance of cookies for certain cases or exclude them generally, and activate the automatic deletion of cookies when closing the browser. Disabling cookies may limit the functionality of this website.


If cookies are used by third-party companies or for analysis purposes, we will inform you about this separately within the framework of this data protection declaration and, if necessary, request your consent.

Request by e-mail, telephone or fax

If you contact us by e-mail, telephone or fax, your enquiry including all resulting personal data (name, enquiry) will be stored and processed by us for the purpose of processing your request. We will not pass on this data without your consent.

The processing of this data is based on Art. 6 para. 1 lit. b GDPR, insofar as your request is related to the fulfilment of a contract or is necessary for the implementation of pre-contractual measures. In all other cases, processing is based on our legitimate interest in the effective handling of the enquiries addressed to us (Art. 6 para. 1 lit. f GDPR) or on your consent (Art. 6 para. 1 lit. a GDPR) if this has been requested.

The data entered in the contact form by you is kept by us until you demand that it be deleted, or you withdraw your consent to its storage, or the purpose of the data storage no longer applies (e.g. once your request has been fully processed). Mandatory legal regulations - in particular legal storage periods - remain unaffected.
