Furthermore, data can be collected and processed for marketing purposes.

In the following we explain to you which of your data can be collected and processed and for what purpose.

When registering for our newsletter

You have the option of subscribing to our newsletter. For this we need your e-mail address and, if applicable, your name as voluntary information for the purpose of addressing you in the newsletter.

We work with the so-called double opt-in procedure. Once you have registered, you will receive an e-mail from us asking you to confirm your registration. By clicking on the activation link contained in the e-mail, you confirm that you are the owner of the e-mail address and wish to receive the newsletter. If you have given your express consent, we will use your e-mail address on the basis of your consent in accordance with Art. 6 para. 1 p. 1 lit. a GDPR to send you our newsletter with information about our offers at regular intervals.

If you do not confirm the activation link within three weeks, we will delete the e-mail address registered for the newsletter.

The data collected is only used to send the newsletter and to document your consent. When you register for the newsletter, we save your IP address and the date of registration. This storage serves solely as proof in the event that a third party misuses an email address and registers to receive the newsletter without the knowledge of the authorized person.

We work together with a mailing service provider to send our newsletter. The data is usually transferred directly to the shipping service provider’s server, possibly in the USA, and stored there. The mailing service provider uses this data to send and statistically evaluate the newsletter on our behalf.

As part of measuring success, our newsletters contain so-called web beacons (small invisible graphics) to collect information. These are pixel-sized files that are retrieved from the servers of the sending service provider when the emails are opened. For example, you can see whether the e-mail has been opened. Technical data such as IP address, browser type or the time of access are also recorded. This data is used exclusively to evaluate the reader behavior of our newsletter recipients so that the content can be adapted to the interests of the newsletter recipients. A separate revocation of the performance measurement is not possible. If you do not wish to have your success measured, please unsubscribe from the entire newsletter subscription.

The use of a mailing service provider for sending newsletters and the measurement of success are based on our legitimate interests in accordance with Art. 6 para. 1 lit. f GDPR. Art. 6 para. 1 p. 1 lit. f GDPR on an efficient, user-friendly and secure newsletter system. An order processing contract acc. Art. 28 para. 3 Sentence 1 GDPR closed.

You can unsubscribe from the newsletter at any time and revoke your consent with the consequence that the data stored by us for receiving the newsletter will be deleted and you will no longer receive a newsletter from us. Data stored by us for other purposes remains unaffected by this. You can declare your revocation by clicking on the unsubscribe link provided in every newsletter e-mail or by sending a message to the contact details given in the imprint.

The customer account is access-protected by the password you have chosen yourself.

You can delete your customer account at any time and revoke the consent you have given, with the result that we irrevocably delete the data stored in the customer account, provided that there are no legal retention periods to the contrary.

Such obligations regularly result from legal documentation and storage obligations, which are regulated in the Commercial Code and the Tax Code, for example ten years for tax purposes. After the legal retention period has expired, the data will be permanently deleted.

A given consent to the processing and storage of your personal data acc. Art. 6 para. 1 p. 1 lit. a DSGVO can be revoked at any time with the result that the data – provided that there are no legal retention periods to the contrary – will be permanently deleted.

Further rights, through which we can be prohibited from processing your personal data, result from Art. 21 Para. 1 and para. 2 GDPR.

If necessary, an order processing contract was concluded with the service provider in accordance with Art. Art. 28 para. 3 Sentence 1 GDPR closed.

Google reCAPTCHA
This website uses the “reCAPTCHA” function to detect bots (e.g. when entering data in online forms such as the contact form). The company responsible for the European area is Google Ireland Limited, Gordon House, Barrow Street, Dublin 4, Ireland (“Google”).

A captcha service is an automatic Turing test designed to ensure that an action on the Internet is performed by a human and not by a bot. In addition to the processed data, IP addresses and any other data required by Google for the reCAPTCHA service may also be forwarded to Google servers in the USA.

You can also prevent Google from collecting the data generated by the cookie and relating to the use of the website (including the IP address) and from processing this data by Google by downloading and installing the browser plug-in available under the following link: https://tools.google.com/dlpage/gaoptout?hl=de

YouTube
We integrate online offers (usually videos) of the platform “Youtube” of the provider Google LLC on our website. Google Ireland Limited, Gordon House, Barrow Street, Dublin 4, Ireland is responsible for the European area. The operator of the pages is Youtube LLC, 901 Cherry Ave, San Bruno, CA 94066, USA.

We have activated the “extended data protection mode” function of YouTube. If you visit one of our pages on which a YouTube video is embedded, according to YouTube no connection to the YouTube servers is established. However, by calling up a page of ours on which a YouTube video is embedded, a connection to the Google network “Double-Klick”, an advertising tool of the provider Google, can be established, which can trigger further data processing operations without our influence.

If you click on a YouTube video on our site, data (including your IP address) will be transmitted directly to Google servers, possibly in the USA, and stored there. Google may store so-called cookies (see section 7 “Cookies”) on your end device to evaluate your user behavior and assign this data to your user account if you are logged in to a Google service. If you do not want Google or YouTube to assign the data collected via our website to your user account, you must log out of Google services before visiting our website.

Google or YouTube may use this information for purposes such as collecting video statistics and improving user-friendliness. We would like to point out that we have no knowledge of the content of the transmitted data or its use by Google or YouTube.
