2 Purpose of the processing of personal data

2.1 Data processing for the provision of contractual services

We process your data in order to handle the contractual relationships between you and us as well as to be able to provide you with needs-based contractual offers. The data is collected in particular for the purpose of recording your orders and processing them.

We use various online forms on our website. The forms are designed to meet the needs of the users of our site. For all forms, we compulsorily collect only those personal data that are absolutely necessary for the processing of the contractual relationships or for your request for information. This information is marked with an asterisk. The collection of data that is not absolutely necessary, but in which we are interested, is only optional. In this case, you decide on a voluntary basis whether and which data you want to give us.

The basis for data processing is Art. 6 (1) lit. b GDPR, which permits the processing of data for the fulfillment of a contract or pre-contractual measures.

Anonymous cookies are used to maintain sessions. These expire after the use of the website and do not allow any conclusions to be drawn about your identity.

Personal data is processed in the context of the use of the website only in order to offer you the use of the website and its services.

The basis for the data processing is Art. 6 para. 1 lit. b GDPR, which permits the processing of data for the fulfillment of a contract or pre-contractual measures.

2.2 Data processing for communication with you (contact form etc.)

In addition to the contractual data, we process your communication data (address, telephone number, e-mail address) in order to contact you. Personal data that you provide to us by e-mail or via the contact form on this website will only be processed for correspondence with you or only for the purpose for which you have provided us with the data.

The basis for data processing is Art. 6 (1) lit. B GDPR, which permits the processing of data for the fulfillment of a contract or pre-contractual measures.

2.3 Newsletter

With your consent, you can subscribe to our newsletter, with which we inform you about our current interesting offers. The advertised products and/or services are named in the declaration of consent. If you would like to receive the newsletter offered on the website, we require an e-mail address from you as well as information that allows us to verify that you are the owner of the e-mail address provided and that you agree to receive the newsletter. For this purpose, we will send you an e-mail to the specified e-mail address with a confirmation link after your input (double-opt-in).

If you do not confirm your registration within 14 days, your information will be blocked and automatically deleted after one month.

Mandatory information for sending the newsletter is only your e-mail address. The provision of further, separately marked data is voluntary and is used to address you personally. In addition, we store your IP addresses used in each case and times of registration and confirmation. The purpose of this procedure is to be able to prove your registration and, if necessary, to clarify a possible misuse of your personal data. We do not collect any other data in this context. We use this data exclusively for sending the requested newsletter. If we use an order processor to send the newsletter, we will of course comply with the applicable data protection laws.

You can revoke your consent to the sending of the newsletter at any time and unsubscribe from the newsletter. You can revoke by clicking on the link provided in each newsletter e-mail, or by sending a message to the contact details mentioned in section 1 (e.g. e-mail, fax, letter).

The data processing is based on your consent according to Art. 6 para. 1 lit. a GDPR. You can revoke your consent at any time. The legality of the data processing operations already carried out remains unaffected by the revocation.

2.4 Forum / comment function

On our website we offer you the possibility to leave comments. When you submit a comment, in addition to your comment, information about the time the comment was created, the IP address assigned to you, your e-mail address and the name you provided will be stored. Since we do not check comments on our site before they are activated, we need this data in order to be able to take action against the author in the event of legal violations such as insults or propaganda.

The comments and the associated above-mentioned data are stored until the commented content has been completely deleted or the comments have to be deleted for legal reasons.

2.5 Data processing for the fulfillment of legal obligations

In addition, we process your data for the fulfillment of legal obligations (e.g. regulatory requirements, commercial and tax law retention and verification obligations).

The basis for data processing is Art. 6 (1) lit. c GDPR, which permits processing for the fulfillment of a legal obligation.

2.6 Use of data for fraud prevention purposes

The data you provide in the context of an order may be used by us to check whether an atypical order transaction or atypical order placement exists. In principle, we have a legitimate interest in carrying out such a check. The processing of the data is based on the legal basis in Art. 6 para. 1 lit. f GDPR.

2.7 Transmission of data on outstanding receivables to collection service providers

If you fail to pay outstanding invoices/installments despite repeated reminders, we may transmit the data required for the performance of a debt collection (name, address, e-mail address, details of the company and, if applicable, contract and receivables data) to a debt collection service provider for the purpose of selling the outstanding receivables as well as for the purpose of debt collection and debt collection processing. In the event of the sale of the outstanding receivables, this service provider shall then become the owner of the receivables and shall assert the receivables in its own name.

The legal basis for this transfer is Art 6 I b GDPR and Art 6 I f GDPR. Transfers on the basis of Art 6 I f GDPR may only take place insofar as this is necessary to safeguard the legitimate interests of our company and does not override the interests of the data subject which require the protection of personal data.

2.8 Transfer of data to the USA or other third countries

Our website uses tools from companies that are based in the USA or other third countries. In doing so, your personal data may be transferred to and processed in these countries. From a European data protection perspective, these countries are not considered safe, as no comparable level of data protection is guaranteed there. In the USA, for example, companies are obliged to hand over personal data to security authorities without data subjects being able to take action against this. We have no influence on such data processing.

In the context of the tools or plug-ins of the companies Google, Facebook and Instagram (Meta) used on this website, they have contractually agreed to comply with European data protection regulations. Thus, a comparable level of data protection should be guaranteed despite transfer to an unsafe third country. The data transfer to the USA as well as the data processing is based on the standard contractual clauses of the EU Commission. Further information can be found under the following link:

Google Analytics uses “cookies”, which are text files placed on your computer, to help the website analyze how users use the site. The information generated by the cookie about your use of this website is usually transmitted to a Google server in the USA and stored there.

For this purpose, reCAPTCHA analyzes the behavior of the website visitor based on various characteristics. This analysis starts automatically as soon as the website visitor enters the website. For the analysis, reCAPTCHA evaluates various information (e.g. IP address, time spent by the website visitor on the website or mouse movements made by the user). The data collected during the analysis is forwarded to Google.

The reCAPTCHA analyses run entirely in the background. Website visitors are not made aware that an analysis is taking place.

The data processing is based on Art. 6 para. 1 lit. f GDPR. We have a legitimate interest in protecting our web offers from abusive automated spying and from so-called SPAM.

Google Tag Manager (hereinafter “GTM”) is used on our website. This tool enables us to manage website tags. It collects aggregate data to trigger tags, which may collect or have collected data themselves. However, as a “cookie-less” domain, GTM does not itself collect or process any personal data, nor does it access data collected by tags. Any deactivation made at the domain or cookie level will remain in effect for all tags collected by GTM.

2.12 Google Adwords Conversions and Remarketing

2.12.1 Google Adwords Conversions

On this website, we use the offer of Google Adwords to draw attention to our offers with the help of advertising media (so-called Google Adwords) on external websites. In relation to the data of the advertising campaigns, we can determine how successful the individual advertising measures are. In this way, we pursue the interest of displaying advertising that is of interest to you, making our website more interesting for you and achieving a fair calculation of advertising costs.

These advertisements are delivered by Google via so-called “ad servers”. For this purpose, we use ad server cookies, through which certain parameters for measuring success, such as display of the ads or clicks by users, can be measured. If you access our website via a Google ad, Google Adwords will store a cookie on your computer. These cookies usually lose their validity after 30 days and are not intended to identify you personally. For this cookie, the unique cookie ID, the number of ad impressions per placement (frequency), the last impression (relevant for post-view conversions) and opt-out information (marking that the user no longer wishes to be addressed) are usually stored as analysis values.

These cookies enable Google to recognize your internet browser. If a user visits certain pages of the website of an Adwords customer and the cookie stored on his computer has not yet expired, Google and the customer can recognize that the user clicked on the ad and was redirected to this page. A different cookie is assigned to each Adwords customer. Cookies can therefore not be tracked across Adwords customers’ websites. The Ad Server cookies usually lose their validity after 30 days and are not intended to identify you personally. We ourselves do not collect or process any personal data in the aforementioned advertising measures. We only receive statistical evaluations from Google. Based on these evaluations, we can see which of the advertising measures used are particularly effective. We do not receive any further data from the use of the advertising tools; in particular, we cannot identify users on the basis of this information. Due to the marketing tools used, your browser automatically establishes a direct connection with the Google server. We have no influence on the scope and further use of the data collected by Google through the use of this tool and therefore inform you according to our state of knowledge: Through the integration of Adwords Conversion, Google receives the information that you have called up the relevant part of our website or clicked on the ad from us. If you are registered with a Google service, Google can assign the visit to your account. Even if you are not registered with Google or have not logged in to a Google service, there is a possibility that the provider will learn your IP address and store it.

You can prevent participation in this tracking process in various ways:

a) by adjusting your browser software accordingly – suppressing third-party cookies will prevent you from receiving third-party ads…;
b) by disabling conversion tracking cookies by setting your browser to block cookies from the www.googleadservices.com domain (https://www.google.de/settings/ads) with this setting being deleted when you delete your cookies;
c) by disabling the interest-based ads of the providers that are part of the “About Ads” self-regulatory campaign through the link http://www.aboutads.info/choices, this setting being deleted when you delete your cookies;
d) by permanently disabling them in your Firefox, Internetexplorer or Google Chrome browsers at the link http://www.google.com/settings/ads/plugin. We would like to point out that in this case you may not be able to use all functions of this offer to their full extent.

2.12.2 Google Adwords Remarketing

In addition to Google Adwords Conversion, we use the Google Adwords Remarketing application. Through this application, you can be shown our advertisements in your subsequent internet usage after visiting our website. This is done by means of cookies stored in your browser, through which your usage behavior when visiting various websites is recorded and evaluated by Google. In this way, Google can determine your previous visit to our website. According to its own statements, Google does not combine the data collected in the context of Google Remarketing with your personal data that may be stored by Google (e.g. because you have registered for a Google service such as Gmail). According to Google, pseudonymization is used in remarketing.

2.12.3 Legal basis for processing

The legal basis for the processing of your data is Art 6 (1) sentence 1 lit. f GDPR.

Data transfer to the USA is based on the standard contractual clauses of the EU Commission.

Details can be found here: https://policies.google.com/privacy/frameworks and https://privacy.google.com/businesses/controllerterms/mccs/.

2.13 Google Double Click

This website uses the online marketing tool DoubleClick by Google. DoubleClick uses cookies to serve ads that are relevant to users, to improve campaign performance reports, or to prevent a user from seeing the same ads more than once. Via a cookie ID, Google records which ads are served in which browser and can thus prevent them from being served more than once. In addition, DoubleClick can use cookie IDs to record so-called conversions that are related to ad requests. This is the case, for example, when a user sees a DoubleClick ad and later calls up the advertiser’s website with the same browser and buys something there. According to Google, DoubleClick cookies do not contain any personal information.

Due to the marketing tools used, your browser automatically establishes a direct connection with Google’s server.

The use of Google Ads is based on Art. 6 para. 1 lit. f GDPR. The website operator has a legitimate interest in marketing its service products as effectively as possible.

The data transfer to the USA is based on the standard contractual clauses of the EU Commission. Details can be found here: https://policies.google.com/privacy/frameworks and https://privacy.google.com/businesses/controllerterms/mccs/.

2.14 Google Ads

We use Google Ads. Google Ads is an online advertising program of Google Ireland Limited (“Google”), Gordon House, Barrow Street, Dublin 4, Ireland.

Furthermore, targeted advertisements can be played on the basis of user data available at Google (e.g. location data and interests) (target group targeting). As the website operator, we can evaluate this data quantitatively by analyzing, for example, which search terms have led to the display of our advertisements and how many advertisements have led to corresponding clicks.

The use of Google Ads is based on Art. 6 (1) lit. f GDPR. The website operator has a legitimate interest in marketing its service products as effectively as possible.
