Privacy Notice

Data protection declaration

Welcome to our website!

We attach maximum importance to protecting your data and safeguarding your privacy. Therefore, we provide 
information below regarding collection and use of personal data while using our website.
 
Anonymous data collection

You can visit our websites without having to provide any personal details. We do not save any personal data
in this connection. In order to improve our offer, we evaluate only the statistical data, which does not allow any
inference of your personal details.
 
Collection, processing and use of personal data

We collect personal data (particulars of personal or objective relationships of a particular or definable natural
person) only within the scope provided by you.
Your personal data is processed and used for completing and processing your order and also for processing
your requests.
After the contract is processed completely, all the personal data is first saved taking into account the retention
periods under fiscal and commercial law and then deleted after the expiry of the deadline, if you have not
approved of the further processing and use.
 
Use of the email address for sending the newsletters

Irrespective of the contract execution, we are using your email address exclusively for advertising purposes
for sending the newsletter, provided that you have given your consent.
Your consent declaration is given below:
abonnieren .
You can use the corresponding link in the newsletter or send us a message to unsubscribe the newsletter
anytime; the relevant contact details can be found in our Disclaimer.
Your email address will then be deleted from the mailing list.
 
Forwarding personal data

Your data is not forwarded to third parties without your explicit consent. Only our service partners, which we
require for handling the contractual relationship, are excluded from this. In these cases, we strictly adhere to
the specifications of the Federal Data Protection Act. The scope of the data transfer is restricted to a
minimum.
 
Using the personal data while selecting Klarna as the payment method

If you decide on Klarna’s payment services, Klarna bill and Klarna instalment purchase, as payment options,
you have consented to the fact that we collect the following personal data necessary for processing the
purchase on account and an identity and credit assessment and transfer it to Klarna; this data includes first
and last name, address, date of birth, sex, email address, IP address, telephone number as well as the data
necessary for processing the purchase on account, which is in connection with the order, such as the number
of items, item number, invoice amount and taxes in percent. This data is transferred so that Klarna can
generate an invoice for processing your purchase with the invoice processing desired by you and conduct an
identity and credit assessment. Klarna thus has an authorised interest in the transfer of the personal data of
the buyer in accordance with the Federal Data Protection Act and requires it to obtain information from credit
reporting agencies for purposes of the identity and credit assessment. The credit reporting agencies in
Germany are listed below:
 
  •  Schufa Holding AG, Kormoranweg 5, 65203 Wiesbaden
  •  Bürgel Wirtschaftsinformationen GmbH & Co. KG, PO Box 5001 66, 22701 Hamburg
  •  Creditreform Bremen Seddig KG, Contrescarpe 17, 28203 Bremen
  •  infoscore Consumer Data GmbH, Rheinstraße 99, 76532 Baden-Baden
Within the scope of the decision about the substantiation, execution or termination of the contractual
relationship, Klarna, apart from an address check, also collects and uses information regarding the current
payment history of the buyer as well as probability values regarding this behaviour
in future. These score values are calculated by Klarna on the basis of a scientifically accepted mathematical
and statistical method. Klarna will also use your address data among other things for this. If this calculation
indicates that your credit-worthiness is not ensured, Klarna shall inform you about this immediately.
 
Revocation of the use of personal data as against Klarna
 
1. You can always revoke your consent to the use of personal data as against Klarna. However, if necessary,
Klarna continues to remain authorised to process, use and transfer the personal data insofar as this is
necessary for the contractual payment processing by Klarna’s services, is stipulated legally, or demanded by
a court or an authority.
 
2. You can of course receive information at all times about the personal data saved by Klarna. The Federal
Data Protection Act guarantees this right. If you as a buyer want this or want to notify changes in the saved
data to Klarna, you can write to datenschutz@klarna.de.

Using the Remarketing or “Similar target groups” function of Google Inc.

The supplier uses the Remarketing or “Similar target groups” function of Google Inc. (“Google”) on the
website. The supplier can use this function to specifically approach the visitors of this website with
advertisements by running personalised, interest-related advertisements for visitors of the supplier’s website if
they visit other websites in the Google Display network. Google uses so-called cookies for analysing the
website usage, which forms the basis for developing the interest-related advertisements. For this, Google
saves a small file with a numerical sequence on the browsers of the website’s visitors. This number is used to
record the visits to the website as well as anonymised data about the website usage. Personal data of the
website’s visitors is not saved. If you subsequently visit another website in the Google Display network,
pop-ups are displayed to you, which are likely to take into account previously accessed product and
information fields.

Using the Remarketing function of ExactTarget

We use the Remarketing function of the email service provider ExactTarget, Inc. 20 North Meridian Street
Suite 200 Indianapolis, Indiana 46204 USA (“ExactTarget”). Cookies are used if you have agreed to receiving
our newsletter and visit our site via a newsletter. This allows us to understand the effectiveness of our
newsletter, e.g. whether you have opened an email or which part of the newsletter was especially interesting.
In addition, ExactTarget uses so-called Web Beacons in the majority of the emails sent by ExactTarget. Web
Beacons (also known as ClearGIFs or web bugs) are small graphics (approx. 1x1 GIF files), which are used
on websites or in HTML emails, among other things, to grant the website users a better understanding of the
interaction of the users with the website. Web beacons have the same function as the cookies, but the user
cannot see them. Web Beacons can be used to particularly obtain information whether the email was obtained
and whether the system of the user is capable of receiving HTML emails. No personal data is obtained using
the Web Beacon.
 
If you do not wish to receive any email notifications with Web Beacons, you can also receive your emails in
text format (not in the HTML format) optionally. Web Beacons are used together with cookies. You can thus
prevent the use of Web Beacons by not installing the cookies through a corresponding setting of your browser
software. However, we would like to bring to your attention that you may not be able to use all functions of our
website entirely in this case.

We use the online advertising service “Google AdWords” and conversion tracking within the scope of Google
AdWords. Google Conversion Tracking is an analysis service of Google Inc. (1600 Amphitheatre Parkway,

If you click an advertisement run by Google, a cookie for the conversion tracking is saved on your computer.

identification.

that you have clicked on the advertisement and were forwarded to this page.
Every Google AdWords customer receives a different cookie. Thus, there is no option that cookies can be
tracked via the websites of AdWords customers.
The information that is obtained with the help of the conversion cookie helps to generate conversion statistics
for AdWords customers, who have decided on conversion tracking. Here, the customers find out about the
total number of users who have clicked on their advertisement and were forwarded to a site provided with a
conversion tracking tag. You however do not receive any information which can be used to identify users
personally.
If you do not wish to take part in the tracking, you can disagree to this use by not installing the cookies
through a corresponding setting of your browser software (deactivation option). You are then not included in
the conversion tracking statistics.
