Privacy Policy

Welcome!

Thank you for visiting our online shop and for your interest in our company, our products and our websites. The protection of your privacy when using our websites is important to us. In this context, please take note of the following information:

1. Anonymous data collection

As a matter of principle, you can visit our websites without telling us who you are. We only store the name of your internet service provider, the website from where you are redirected and the name of the requested file. This information shall only be evaluated for statistical purposes and shall help us to improve our offers. In this case, you as an individual user shall remain anonymous.

2. Collection and processing of personal data

Personal data will only be collected and stored if you provide us with this data voluntarily, e. g. for the implementation of a contract or when opening of a customer account. Without your express consent, this data shall only be used for the implementation of the contract and the processing of your enquiries as well as for the purpose of customer information in form of our newsletter. After the complete processing of the contract and the complete payment of the purchase price, your data shall be stored with regard to retention periods required by tax and commercial law regulations. Following the expiration of these periods, however, the data shall be deleted provided that you have not expressly agreed the further use of your data.

After the implementation of the contract, your email address which you provided when concluding the contract shall be exclusively used for our own advertising purposes, i.e. for advertising our own goods and services similar to those ordered by you in form of our newsletter. You can object to your email address being used any time without any other costs arising in this matter than the forwarding charges according to the basic rates. Your objection (and thus the cancellation of our newsletter) can be made via the link provided in the newsletter for this purpose or by sending us the corresponding message. After your objection, your email address shall be immediately deleted.

Your ordering data and the GTC (General Terms and Conditions) shall be sent to you by email. In addition to this, you can access your ordering data in our password protected customer login area.

Personal data shall only be put to another use with your express consent.

3. Transfer of personal data, credit information

The personal data that we collect from you shall be transferred within the scope of the implementation of the contract to the forwarder in charge of the delivery, as far as this is required for the delivery of the goods.

For any advance work and payment, we shall reserve the right to assess the customer’s creditworthiness in order to safeguard our legitimate interests. In doing so, the exchange of data shall take place within the scope of legal regulations in force with the following service provider:

Schufa Holding AG
Hagenauer Straße 44
65203 Wiesbaden
Germany

Furthermore, personal data can be transferred if this transfer of data is required for safeguarding our rights, for example on the occasion of the collection of a claim.

Apart from that, your personal data shall not be transferred to third parties.
