PRIVACY POLICY

 

§ 1 General

We process your personal data (e.g. title, name, address, e-mail address, telephone number, bank details, credit card number) solely in accordance with the provisions of German data protection law and the data protection law of the European Union (EU). The following provisions inform you about the purposes of processing, the recipients, the legal bases and the storage periods, as well as about your rights and the controller responsible for processing your data. This privacy policy applies only to our websites. If links on our pages take you to other sites, please inform yourself there about how your data is handled.

 

 

§ 2 Data processing for the performance of a contract

(1) Purpose of processing

The personal data you provide to us during the ordering process is required to conclude a contract with us. You are not obliged to provide your personal data. However, without your address we cannot send you the goods. For some payment methods we need the relevant payment data in order to pass it on to a payment service provider commissioned by us. Your data entered during the ordering process is therefore processed for the purpose of performing the contract. If you send us an enquiry before concluding a contract, by e-mail, via a contact form or similar, we process the data received in this way in order to take steps prior to entering into a contract, for example to answer your questions about our products.


(2) Legal basis

 

The legal basis for this processing is Art. 6(1)(b) GDPR.


(3) Categories of recipients

 

Payment service providers, shipping service providers, hosting providers, where applicable inventory management system, where applicable suppliers (drop shipping).


(4) Storage period

 

We store the data required to process the contract until the statutory warranty periods and, where applicable, contractual guarantee periods have expired.

We retain the data required under commercial and tax law for the periods prescribed by law, usually ten years (cf. § 257 HGB (German Commercial Code), § 147 AO (German Fiscal Code)). Data processed in order to take steps prior to entering into a contract is deleted as soon as those steps have been completed and it is evident that no contract will be concluded.

§ 5 Rights of the data subject

If your personal data is processed, you are a data subject within the meaning of the GDPR and you have the following rights vis-à-vis us:


1. Right of access

 

You may request confirmation from us as to whether or not personal data concerning you is being processed by us.

Where such processing takes place, you may request access to the following information:

(1) the purposes for which the personal data is processed;

(2) the categories of personal data being processed;

(3) the recipients or categories of recipients to whom the personal data concerning you has been or will be disclosed;

(4) the envisaged period for which the personal data concerning you will be stored or, if specific information on this is not possible, the criteria used to determine that period;

(5) the existence of the right to request rectification or erasure of personal data concerning you, the right to request restriction of processing by us or the right to object to such processing;

(6) the right to lodge a complaint with a supervisory authority;

(7) where the personal data is not collected from the data subject, any available information as to its source;

(8) the existence of automated decision-making, including profiling, referred to in Art. 22(1) and (4) GDPR and, at least in those cases, meaningful information about the logic involved, as well as the significance and the envisaged consequences of such processing for the data subject.

You have the right to request information as to whether the personal data concerning you is transferred to a third country or to an international organisation. In this context, you may request to be informed of the appropriate safeguards pursuant to Art. 46 GDPR relating to the transfer.


2. Right to rectification

You have the right to obtain from us the rectification and/or completion of the personal data concerning you if it is inaccurate or incomplete. We must carry out the rectification without undue delay.


3. Right to restriction of processing

You may request the restriction of processing of the personal data concerning you under the following conditions:

(1) if you contest the accuracy of the personal data concerning you, for a period enabling us to verify the accuracy of the personal data;

(2) if the processing is unlawful and you oppose the erasure of the personal data and request the restriction of its use instead;

(3) if we no longer need the personal data for the purposes of the processing, but you require it for the establishment, exercise or defence of legal claims, or

(4) if you have objected to processing pursuant to Art. 21(1) GDPR, pending verification of whether our legitimate grounds override yours.

Where processing of the personal data concerning you has been restricted, such data may, with the exception of storage, only be processed with your consent or for the establishment, exercise or defence of legal claims or for the protection of the rights of another natural or legal person or for reasons of important public interest of the Union or of a Member State.

If processing has been restricted under the above conditions, we will inform you before the restriction is lifted.


4. Right to erasure

 

a) Obligation to erase

You may request that we erase the personal data concerning you without undue delay, and we are obliged to erase such data without undue delay where one of the following grounds applies:

(1) The personal data concerning you is no longer necessary in relation to the purposes for which it was collected or otherwise processed.

(2) You withdraw the consent on which the processing was based pursuant to Art. 6(1)(a) or Art. 9(2)(a) GDPR, and there is no other legal ground for the processing.

(3) You object to the processing pursuant to Art. 21(1) GDPR and there are no overriding legitimate grounds for the processing, or you object to the processing pursuant to Art. 21(2) GDPR.

(4) The personal data concerning you has been unlawfully processed.

(5) The personal data concerning you must be erased for compliance with a legal obligation under Union or Member State law to which we are subject.

(6) The personal data concerning you has been collected in relation to the offer of information society services referred to in Art. 8(1) GDPR.

b) Information to third parties

Where we have made the personal data concerning you public and are obliged pursuant to Art. 17(1) GDPR to erase it, we shall, taking account of available technology and the cost of implementation, take reasonable steps, including technical measures, to inform controllers which are processing the personal data that you, as the data subject, have requested the erasure by them of any links to, or copies or replications of, that personal data.

c) Exceptions

The right to erasure does not apply to the extent that processing is necessary

(1) for exercising the right of freedom of expression and information;

(2) for compliance with a legal obligation which requires processing under Union or Member State law to which we are subject, or for the performance of a task carried out in the public interest or in the exercise of official authority vested in us;

(3) for reasons of public interest in the area of public health in accordance with Art. 9(2)(h) and (i) and Art. 9(3) GDPR;

(4) for archiving purposes in the public interest, scientific or historical research purposes or statistical purposes in accordance with Art. 89(1) GDPR, in so far as the right referred to in section a) is likely to render impossible or seriously impair the achievement of the objectives of that processing, or

(5) for the establishment, exercise or defence of legal claims.


5. Right to notification

 

If you have exercised your right to rectification, erasure or restriction of processing vis-à-vis us, we are obliged to communicate this rectification or erasure of the data or restriction of processing to each recipient to whom the personal data concerning you has been disclosed, unless this proves impossible or involves disproportionate effort.

You have the right to be informed by us about those recipients.


6. Right to data portability

 

You have the right to receive the personal data concerning you, which you have provided to us, in a structured, commonly used and machine-readable format. You also have the right to transmit this data to another controller without hindrance, where

(1) the processing is based on consent pursuant to Art. 6(1)(a) GDPR or Art. 9(2)(a) GDPR or on a contract pursuant to Art. 6(1)(b) GDPR, and

(2) the processing is carried out by automated means.

In exercising this right, you also have the right to have the personal data concerning you transmitted directly from us to another controller, where technically feasible. This must not adversely affect the rights and freedoms of others.

The right to data portability does not apply to processing of personal data necessary for the performance of a task carried out in the public interest or in the exercise of official authority vested in us.


7. Right to object

 

You have the right to object, on grounds relating to your particular situation, at any time to processing of personal data concerning you which is based on Art. 6(1)(e) or (f) GDPR, including profiling based on those provisions.

We will then no longer process the personal data concerning you unless we can demonstrate compelling legitimate grounds for the processing which override your interests, rights and freedoms, or the processing serves the establishment, exercise or defence of legal claims.

Where personal data concerning you is processed for direct marketing purposes, you have the right to object at any time to processing of personal data concerning you for such marketing, which includes profiling to the extent that it is related to such direct marketing.

If you object to processing for direct marketing purposes, the personal data concerning you will no longer be processed for such purposes.

In the context of the use of information society services, and notwithstanding Directive 2002/58/EC, you may exercise your right to object by automated means using technical specifications.


8. Right to withdraw consent under data protection law

 

You have the right to withdraw your consent under data protection law at any time. The withdrawal of consent does not affect the lawfulness of processing based on consent before its withdrawal.


9. Automated individual decision-making, including profiling

 

You have the right not to be subject to a decision based solely on automated processing, including profiling, which produces legal effects concerning you or similarly significantly affects you. This does not apply if the decision

(1) is necessary for entering into, or performance of, a contract between you and us,

(2) is authorised by Union or Member State law to which we are subject and which also lays down suitable measures to safeguard your rights and freedoms and legitimate interests, or

(3) is based on your explicit consent.

However, these decisions must not be based on special categories of personal data referred to in Art. 9(1) GDPR, unless Art. 9(2)(a) or (g) applies and suitable measures to safeguard the rights and freedoms and your legitimate interests are in place.

In the cases referred to in (1) and (3), we implement suitable measures to safeguard the rights and freedoms and your legitimate interests.


10. Right to lodge a complaint with a supervisory authority

 

Without prejudice to any other administrative or judicial remedy, you have the right to lodge a complaint with a supervisory authority, in particular in the Member State of your habitual residence, place of work or place of the alleged infringement, if you consider that the processing of personal data concerning you infringes the GDPR.

The supervisory authority with which the complaint has been lodged shall inform the complainant of the progress and the outcome of the complaint, including the possibility of a judicial remedy pursuant to Art. 78 GDPR.
