If more specific legal bases are also relevant in individual cases, we will inform you of this in the data protection declaration.

  • Consent.(Art. 6 Abs. 1 S. 1 lit. a GDPR) - The data subject has given their consent to the processing of their personal data for one or more specific purposes.
  • Fulfillment of contract and pre-contractual inquiries (Art. 6 Abs. 1 S. 1 lit. b.

National data protection regulations in Germany: In addition to the data protection regulations of the General Data Protection Regulation, national regulations on data protection in Germany apply. This includes in particular the law on protection against misuse of personal data in data processing (Federal Data Protection Act - BDSG). The BDSG contains in particular special regulations on the right to information, the right to deletion, the right to object, the processing of special categories of personal data, the processing for other purposes and the transmission as well as automated decision-making in individual cases including profiling. Furthermore, it regulates data processing for the purposes of the employment relationship (Section 26 BDSG), in particular with regard to the establishment, implementation or termination of employment relationships and the consent of employees. State data protection laws of the individual federal states can also be applied.

Safety measures

We take appropriate technical and organizational measures in accordance with the legal requirements, taking into account the state of the art, the implementation costs and the type, scope, circumstances and purposes of the processing as well as the different occurrence probabilities and the extent of the threat to the rights and freedoms of natural persons to ensure a level of protection appropriate to the risk.

The measures include, in particular, ensuring the confidentiality, integrity and availability of data by controlling the physical and electronic access to the data as well as the access, input, transfer, safeguarding of availability and their separation. Furthermore, we have set up procedures that guarantee the exercise of data subject rights, the deletion of data and reactions to the risk to the data. Furthermore, we take the protection of personal data into account when developing or selecting hardware, software and processes based on the principle of data protection, through technology design and through data protection-friendly default settings.

Transmission and disclosure of personal data

As part of our processing of personal data, it may happen that the data is transmitted to other bodies, companies, legally independent organizational units or persons, or that it is disclosed to them. The recipients of this data can e.g. Payment institutions in the context of payment transactions, service providers commissioned with IT tasks or providers of services and content that are integrated into a website. In such a case, we observe the legal requirements and in particular conclude corresponding contracts or agreements that serve to protect your data with the recipients of your data.

If we process data in a third country (i.e. outside the European Union (EU), the European Economic Area (EEA)) or the processing as part of the use of third-party services or the disclosure or transmission of data to other people, bodies or companies takes place, this takes place only in accordance with the legal requirements.

Subject to express consent or contractually or legally required transmission, we process or have the data processed only in third countries with a recognized data protection level, contractual obligation through so-called standard protection clauses of the EU Commission, if certificates or binding internal data protection regulations are available (Art. 44 to 49 GDPR, Information page of the EU Commission: https://ec.europa.eu/info/law/law-topic/data-protection/international-dimension-data-protection_de ).

Use of cookies

Cookies are text files that contain data from visited websites or domains and are saved by a browser on the user's computer. The primary purpose of a cookie is to store information about a user during or after their visit within an online offer. For example, the stored information the language settings on a website, the login status, a shopping cart or the place where a video was watched. The term cookies also includes other technologies that perform the same functions as cookies (e.g. if user information is stored using pseudonymous online identifiers, also known as "user IDs")

A distinction is made between the following types of cookies and functions:

  • Temporary cookies (also: session or session cookies): Temporary cookies are deleted at the latest after a user has left an online offer and closed his browser.
  • Permanent Cookies: Permanent cookies remain saved even after the browser is closed. For example, the login status can be saved or preferred content can be displayed directly when the user visits a website again. Likewise, the interests of users who are used for range measurement or for marketing purposes can be saved in such a cookie.
  • First-Party-Cookies: First-party cookies are set by us.
  • Third-Party-Cookies: Third-party cookies are mainly used by advertisers (so-called third parties) to process user information.
  • Necessary (also: essential or absolutely necessary) cookies: On the one hand, cookies may be absolutely necessary for the operation of a website (e.g. to save logins or other user entries or for security reasons).
  • Statistics, marketing and personalization cookies : Furthermore, cookies are generally also used in the scope of range measurement and when the interests of a user or his behavior (e.g. viewing certain content, use of functions, etc.) is based on individual Websites are saved in a user profile.

Notes on legal bases: The legal basis on which we process your personal data with the help of cookies depends on whether we ask you for your consent. If this is the case and you consent to the use of cookies, the legal basis for the processing of your data is the declared consent. Otherwise, the data processed using cookies will be processed based on our legitimate interests (e.g. in a business operation of our online offer and its improvement) or, if the use of cookies is necessary, to fulfill our contractual obligations.

Storage period.: If we do not provide you with any explicit information about the storage duration of permanent cookies (e.g. as part of a so-called cookie opt-in), please assume that the storage period can be up to two years.

Provision of the online offer and web hosting

In order to be able to provide our online offer securely and efficiently, we use the services of one or more web hosting providers, from whose servers (or servers managed by them) the online offer can be accessed. For these purposes, we can use infrastructure and platform services, computing capacity, storage space and database services as well as security and technical maintenance services.

The data processed as part of the provision of the hosting offer can include all information relating to the users of our online offer, which is generated as part of the use and communication. This regularly includes the IP address that is necessary to be able to deliver the content of online offers to browsers, and all entries made within our online offer or on websites.

Collection of access data and log files: We ourselves (or our web hosting provider) collect data on every access to the server (so-called server log files). The server log files can include the address and name of the websites and files accessed, the date and time of access, the amount of data transferred, notification of successful access, browser type and version, the user's operating system, referrer URL (the previously visited page) and, as a rule, IP Addresses and the requesting provider belong.

Double opt-in procedure: The registration for our newsletter basically takes place in a so-called double opt-in procedure. This means that after registration you will receive an email asking you to confirm your registration. This confirmation is necessary so that no one can register with someone else's email address. The registrations for the newsletter are logged in order to be able to demonstrate the registration process in accordance with the legal requirements. This includes the storage of the registration and confirmation time as well as the IP address. Changes to your data stored with the shipping service provider are also logged.

Online marketing

We process personal data for the purposes of online marketing, which in particular includes the marketing of advertising space or the display of advertising and other content (collectively referred to as "content") based on potential interests of the users and the measurement of their effectiveness.

For these purposes, so-called user profiles are created and saved in a file (so-called "cookie") or similar methods are used, by means of which the information relevant to the presentation of the aforementioned content about the user is saved. For this information, e.g. Content viewed, websites visited, online networks used, but also communication partners and technical information such as the browser used, the computer system used and information on times of use. If users have consented to the collection of their location data, this can also be processed.

The IP addresses of the users are also saved. However, we use available IP masking procedures (i.e. pseudonymization by shortening the IP address) to protect users. In general, no clear user data (such as e-mail addresses or names) is stored as part of the online marketing process, but pseudonyms. This means that we, as well as the providers of the online marketing process, do not know the actual identity of the user, but only the information stored in their profiles.

The information in the profiles is usually saved in the cookies or by means of similar processes. These cookies can generally be later read on other websites that use the same online marketing process, analyzed and analyzed for the purpose of displaying content, and supplemented with further data and stored on the server of the online marketing process provider.

In exceptional cases, clear data can be assigned to the profiles. This is the case if the users e.g. Are members of a social network whose online marketing process we use and the network connects the profiles of the users with the aforementioned information. We ask you to note that users have additional agreements with the providers, e.g. by consent in the context of registration.

We generally only have access to summarized information about the success of our advertisements. However, as part of so-called conversion measurements, we can check which of our online marketing processes have led to a so-called conversion, i.e. e.g., to conclude a contract with us. The conversion measurement is only used to analyze the success of our marketing measures.

Unless otherwise stated, we ask you to assume that the cookies used will be stored for a period of two years.

Notes on legal bases: If we ask the users for their consent to the use of third-party providers, the legal basis for the processing of data is consent. Otherwise, the data of the users are processed on the basis of our legitimate interests (i.e. interest in efficient, economical and recipient-friendly services). In this context, we would also like to draw your attention to the information on the use of cookies in this data protection declaration.

  • Affiliate follow-up: As part of the affiliate follow-up, links are recorded that help the linking websites to refer users to websites with product or other offers. The operators of the linked websites can receive a commission if users follow these so-called affiliate links and then take advantage of the offers (e.g. buy goods or use services). To do this, it is necessary for the provider to be able to track whether users who are interested in certain offers will subsequently perceive them when the affiliate links are initiated. Therefore, the functionality of affiliate links requires that certain values ​​be added to them, which become part of the link or otherwise, e.g. stored in a cookie. The values ​​include, in particular, the initial website (referrer), the time, an online identifier of the operator of the website on which the affiliate link was located, an online identifier of the respective offer, an online identifier of the user and tracking-specific values , such as Advertising media ID, partner ID and categorizations.
  • Visit action evaluation: "Visitor action evaluation" (English "Conversion Tracking") describes a procedure with which the effectiveness of marketing measures can be determined.
