II Rights of users and data subjects
With regard to the data processing described in more detail below, users and data subjects have the right
to confirmation as to whether data concerning them is being processed, to information about the processed data, to further information about the data processing and to copies of the data (cf. also Art. 15 GDPR);
to rectification or completion of inaccurate or incomplete data (cf. also Art. 16 GDPR);
the immediate erasure of the data concerning them (see also Art. 17 GDPR) or, alternatively, if further processing is required pursuant to Art. 17 (3) GDPR, the restriction of processing in accordance with Art. 18 GDPR;
to receive the data concerning them and provided by them and to transfer this data to other providers/controllers (cf. also Art. 20 GDPR)
to lodge a complaint with the supervisory authority if they believe that the data concerning them is being processed by the provider in breach of data protection regulations (see also Art. 77 GDPR).
In addition, the provider is obliged to inform all recipients to whom data has been disclosed by the provider of any correction or deletion of data or the restriction of processing that takes place on the basis of Articles 16, 17 para. 1, 18 GDPR. However, this obligation does not apply if this notification is impossible or involves a disproportionate effort. Notwithstanding this, the user has a right to information about these recipients.
Users and data subjects also have the right to object to the future processing of data concerning them in accordance with Art. 21 GDPR, provided that the data is processed by the provider in accordance with Art. 6 para. 1 lit. f) GDPR. In particular, an objection to data processing for the purpose of direct advertising is permitted.
III. Information on data processing
Your data processed when using our website will be deleted or blocked as soon as the purpose of the storage no longer applies, the deletion of the data does not conflict with any statutory retention obligations and no other information is provided below on individual processing procedures.
Server data
For technical reasons, in particular to ensure a secure and stable Internet presence, data is transmitted to us or to our web space provider by your Internet browser. With these so-called server log files, the type and version of your Internet browser, the operating system, the website from which you have switched to our Internet presence (referrer URL), the website(s) of our Internet presence that you visit, the date and time of the respective access and the IP address of the Internet connection from which the use of our Internet presence takes place are collected, among other things.
The data collected in this way is stored temporarily, but not together with other data from you.
This storage takes place on the legal basis of Art. 6 para. 1 lit. f) GDPR. Our legitimate interest lies in the improvement, stability, functionality and security of our website.
The data will be deleted after seven days at the latest, unless further storage is required for evidence purposes. Otherwise, the data is excluded from deletion in whole or in part until an incident has been finally clarified.
Cookies
a) Session cookies/session cookies
We use so-called cookies on our website. Cookies are small text files or other storage technologies that are placed and stored on your end device by the Internet browser you use. These cookies process certain information from you, such as your browser or location data or your IP address, to an individual extent.
This processing makes our website more user-friendly, effective and secure, as the processing makes it possible, for example, to display our website in different languages or to offer a shopping basket function.
The legal basis for this processing is Art. 6 para. 1 lit. b) GDPR, insofar as these cookies are processed for contract initiation or contract fulfilment.
If the processing does not serve to initiate or fulfil a contract, our legitimate interest lies in improving the functionality of our website. The legal basis in this case is Art. 6 para. 1 lit. f) GDPR.
These session cookies are deleted when you close your Internet browser.
b) Third-party cookies
Our website may also use cookies from partner companies with whom we work for the purposes of advertising, analysing or the functionalities of our website.
Please refer to the following information for details, in particular the purposes and legal basis for processing such third-party cookies.
c) Removal option
You can prevent or restrict the installation of cookies by changing the settings in your Internet browser. You can also delete cookies that have already been saved at any time. However, the steps and measures required for this depend on the specific Internet browser you are using. If you have any questions, please use the help function or documentation of your Internet browser or contact its manufacturer or support. In the case of so-called Flash cookies, however, processing cannot be prevented via the browser settings. Instead, you must change the settings of your Flash player. The steps and measures required for this also depend on the specific Flash player you are using. If you have any questions, please also use the help function or documentation of your Flash player or contact the manufacturer or user support.
However, if you prevent or restrict the installation of cookies, this may mean that not all functions of our website can be used to their full extent.
Contract processing
The data transmitted by you to utilise our range of goods and/or services is processed by us for the purpose of contract processing and is necessary in this respect. Conclusion and fulfilment of the contract are not possible without the provision of your data.
The legal basis for the processing is Art. 6 para. 1 lit. b) GDPR.
We delete the data once the contract has been fully processed, but must observe the retention periods under tax and commercial law.
As part of the contract processing, we pass on your data to the transport company commissioned with the delivery of goods or to the financial service provider, insofar as the transfer is necessary for the delivery of goods or for payment purposes.
The legal basis for the transfer of data is then Art. 6 para. 1 lit. b) GDPR.
Contact enquiries / contact option
If you contact us via contact form or e-mail, the data you provide will be used to process your enquiry. The provision of the data is necessary for processing and answering your enquiry - without it we cannot answer your enquiry or can only answer it to a limited extent.
The legal basis for this processing is Art. 6 para. 1 lit. b) GDPR.
Your data will be deleted if your enquiry has been conclusively answered and the deletion does not conflict with any statutory retention obligations, such as in the case of any subsequent contract processing.
Linking social media via graphic or text link
We also advertise presences on the social networks listed below on our website. The integration takes place via a linked graphic of the respective network. The use of this linked graphic prevents the automatic establishment of a connection to the respective social network server when a website with a social media advert is called up in order to display a graphic of the respective network itself. Only by clicking on the corresponding graphic is the user forwarded to the service of the respective social network.
Once the user has been forwarded, the respective network collects information about the user. It cannot be ruled out that the data collected in this way will be processed in the USA.
This is initially data such as IP address, date, time and page visited. If the user is logged into their user account on the respective network during this time, the network operator may be able to assign the information collected about the user's specific visit to the user's personal account. If the user interacts via a ‘Share’ button of the respective network, this information can be stored in the user's personal user account and published if necessary. If the user wishes to prevent the information collected from being directly assigned to their user account, they must log out before clicking on the graphic. It is also possible to configure the respective user account accordingly.

The add-on informs the JavaScript (ga.js) of Google Analytics that information about your visit to our website should not be transmitted to Google Analytics.
