1.1 General
1.1.1 What are personal data?
Personal data are pieces of information that disclose or can disclose the identity of the user. We adhere to the principle of data minimization. We refrain from collecting personal data as far as possible.
1.2 Handling of personal data
Personal data serve exclusively for the establishment, content design, execution, or handling of the contractual relationship (Art. 6 I sentence 1 b GDPR).
Furthermore, personal data are only processed to the extent that we have obtained your consent for this purpose (Art. 6 I sentence 1 a GDPR) or if it concerns data whose processing is necessary for our legitimate interests, and provided that the balance indicates that there are no overriding interests, fundamental rights, or freedoms on your part (Art. 6 I sentence 1 f GDPR).
We may use processors to process your personal data, but in principle, we do not disclose personal data to third parties.
Only for the fulfillment of the contract, data will be passed on to the shipping company commissioned with the delivery, if this is necessary for the delivery of ordered goods. For payment processing, the payment data required for this purpose will be passed on to the credit institution and, if necessary, the commissioned and chosen payment service provider.
The processing of your personal data takes place exclusively within the EU, unless otherwise stated below.

Registration is required for comprehensive use of the functions of our website. The registration data is collected through your corresponding inputs and used for the specific purpose indicated in accordance with your consent (Art. 6 I sentence 1 a GDPR).

All data on our website is secured against loss, destruction, access, alteration, and dissemination by technical and organizational measures.
3.2 Sessions and Cookies
To operate the website, we may use cookies or server-side sessions to store data. Cookies are files that are stored by a website on your hard drive to automatically recognize this computer on your next visit to the website and thus adapt the use of the website to you. Some of the cookies used are deleted after the end of the browser session. These are called session cookies. Other cookies remain on your device and enable the recognition of the browser on a later visit to our website (persistent cookies). You can configure your browser to inform you about the setting of cookies and to decide individually whether to accept them or to exclude the acceptance of cookies for certain cases or in general. Please note that you may not be able to use some functions of this website if cookies are disabled. We ensure that no personal data is taken from sessions or cookies and that cookies are only used if technically necessary for the website. Thus, the balancing test shows that there are no overriding interests on your part (Art. 6 I p. 1 f GDPR).

6. Third-Party Services
6.1 Google Analytics
This website uses Google Analytics, a web analysis service provided by Google, operated by Google LLC, 1600 Amphitheatre Parkway, Mountain View, CA 94043, USA ("Google"), and collects and stores data via this web analysis service from which usage profiles are created using pseudonyms. The usage profiles created in this way serve to evaluate visitor behavior in order to tailor and improve the offer presented on this website to meet demand. Google Analytics uses so-called "cookies," small text files that are stored on your computer and enable an analysis of your use of the website. 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. If IP anonymization is activated on this website, your IP address will be truncated by Google within member states of the European Union or in other states party to the Agreement on the European Economic Area before being transmitted. Only in exceptional cases will the full IP address be transmitted to a Google server in the USA and truncated there. On behalf of the operator of this website, Google will use this information to evaluate your use of the website, to compile reports on website activity, and to provide other services related to website activity and internet usage to the website operator. The IP address transmitted by your browser as part of Google Analytics will not be merged with other data from Google. The usage profiles created under a pseudonym will not be merged with personal data about the user without the explicit and separately declared consent of the user. Thus, the balancing test shows that there are no overriding interests on your part (Art. 6 I p. 1 f GDPR). You can prevent the storage of cookies by adjusting your browser software accordingly; however, please note that if you do this, you may not be able to use all the features of this website to their full extent. You can also prevent Google from collecting and processing data generated by the cookie and related to your use of the website (including your IP address) by downloading and installing the browser plug-in available under the following link (http://tools.google.com/dlpage/gaoptout?hl=de). You can prevent Google Analytics from collecting your data by clicking on the following link. An opt-out cookie will be set to prevent your data from being collected on future visits to this website: Deactivate Google Analytics. You can view Google's privacy policy at http://www.google.de/intl/de/policies/privacy/. For more information on terms of use and data protection, please visit http://www.google.com/analytics/terms/de.html or http://www.google.com/intl/de/analytics/privacyoverview.html. We would like to point out that Google Analytics has been expanded on this website with the code "anonymizeIp" to ensure anonymized collection of IP addresses (so-called IP masking).
6.2 Use of Google Maps
This website uses Google Maps, a map service provided by Google, operated by Google LLC., 1600 Amphitheatre Parkway, Mountain View, CA 94043, USA ("Google"). When using Google Maps, data about the use of the Maps functions by visitors to the websites is also collected, processed, and used. Here, there are no user interests that outweigh this technical necessity of integrating the interactive map material (Art. 6 I p. 1 f GDPR). You can view Google's privacy policy at http://www.google.de/intl/de/policies/privacy/. You can view the additional terms of use for Google Maps at http://www.google.com/intl/de_de/help/terms_maps.html.
6.4 Google Web Fonts
We use so-called web fonts from Google to display a uniform font on our website. These are automatically stored in your browser cache when you visit one of our pages to enable the desired display. If your browser does not support the web fonts used, a default font of your computer may be used. Here, there are no user interests that outweigh this technical necessity (Art. 6 I p. 1 f GDPR). You can view Google's privacy policy here: https://www.google.com/policies/privacy/. For more information about Google Web Fonts, visit https://developers.google.com/fonts/faq.
6.6 Social Media Links
We have our own social media pages on third-party providers accessible via links from this website. By using the links, you will be directed to the respective Internet pages of the third-party providers (e.g., Facebook, Twitter, Google+). To avoid unnecessary data transmission, we recommend logging out of the respective third-party provider before using the link, so that usage profiles by the third-party provider may not be created simply by using the link.
