What do we use your data for?

Some of the data are recorded to guarantee fault-free provision of the website. Other data may be used to analyse your user behaviour.

Cancellation of your consent to data processing

Many data processing procedures are only possible following your express consent. You may withdraw granted consent at any time. To that end notification by e-mail sent to us without the necessity of honouring any formal requirements is sufficient. This does not affect the legality of the data processing performed up until the withdrawal.

Right to object to data collection in particular cases and object to direct advertising (Article 21 GDPR)

If the processing of personal data is based on point (e) or (f) of Article 6(1), GDPR, you shall be entitled to object, on grounds relating to your particular situation, at any time, to the processing of your personal data. This includes profiling based on those provisions. The respective legal basis on which processing is based is stated in this Data Protection Statement. If you object, we shall no longer process your affected personal data unless we demonstrate compelling legitimate grounds for the processing which override your interests, rights and freedoms or for the establishment, exercise or defence of legal claims (objection in accordance with Article 21(1) GDPR).

If your personal data are processed for direct marketing purposes, you shall have the right to object at any time to processing of personal data concerning you for such marketing, which includes profiling to the extent that it is related to such direct marketing. If you object, your personal data shall then no longer be processed for the purpose of direct marketing (right to object in accordance with Article 21 (2) GDPR).

Right to lodge a complaint with a supervisory authority

In the event of violations of the GDPR, the data subject shall have the right to lodge a complaint with a supervisory authority, in particular in the Member State of the data subject’s place of residence, workplace or place of the putative violation. The right to object applies irrespective of other administrative law or court remedies.

Right to data portability

Furthermore, you are entitled to have the data, which we automatically process based on your consent or to execute a contract, handed over to you or a third party in a commonly-used, machine-readable, format. In so far as you request the direct transfer of the data to another controller, this shall only apply provided it is technically feasible.

SSL or TLS encryption

For security reasons and to protect the transmission of confidential content, such as orders or enquiries that you send to us as the website operator, this website uses SSL or TLS encryption. You can recognise an encrypted link in that the address reference of the browser changes from “http://” to “https://” and by the padlock symbol in your browser reference line.

If the SSL or TLS encryption is activated, the data that you forward to us cannot be read by third parties.

Information, blocking, erasure and rectification

As part of the valid statutory provisions, you have the right at any time to gratuitously receive information about your stored personal data, their origin, recipients and the purpose of the data processing and, where applicable, the right to the rectification, blocking or erasure of such data. To that end and in respect of other questions on the subject of personal data, you can contact us at any time via the address stated in the publication details.

Right to restriction of the processing

You have the right to request the restriction of the processing of your personal data. To that end you can contact us at any time via the address stated in the publication details. The right to the restriction of the processing applies in the following cases:

  • If you dispute the accuracy of the personal data stored by us, we normally require time to re view this. Right to restriction of the processing. You have the right to request the restriction of the processing of your personal data.
  • If your personal data was processed/is being processed unlawfully, instead of the erasure you may request the restriction of the data processing.
  • If we no longer require your personal data, but however you require them to exercise or defend or assert legal claims, you shall have the right to demand the restriction of the processing of your personal data instead of deletion.
  • If you have lodged a complaint in accordance with Article 21(1) GDPR, your and our interests must be weighed up. As long as it has not been established whose interests are predominate, you shall have the right to request the restriction of the processing of your personal data.

If you have restricted the processing of your personal data, such data – apart from their storage – may only be processed following your consent or to assert, exercise or defend legal claims or for the protection of the rights of another natural or legal person or for reasons of significant public interest on the part of the European Union or a Member State.

The internet pages use, in part, so-called Cookies. Cookies do not cause any damage to your computer and do not contain viruses. Cookies are aimed at making our service more user-friendly, more effective and secure. Cookies are small text files that are placed on your computer and stored by your browser.

Most of the Cookies we use are so-called “Session Cookies”. They are automatically deleted at the end of your visit. Other Cookies remain stored on your terminal until you delete them. These Cookies enable us to recognise your browser when you next visit our site.

You can set your browser such that you are informed about the setting of Cookies and only permit Cookies in an individual case, exclude the acceptance of Cookies for certain cases or in general and activate the automatic deletion of the Cookies when closing the browser. The functionality of this website may be restricted if Cookies are deactivated.

Cookies, which are required to perform the electronic communication procedure or to provide certain functions you have requested (e.g. goods basket function) are stored on the basis of Article 6(1), point (f), GDPR. The website operator has a justified interest in storing Cookies for the technical fault-free and optimised provision of its services. Where other Cookies (e.g. Cookies to analyse your surf behaviour) are stored, these shall be addressed separately in this Data Protection Statement.

Contact form

If you send us enquiries via a contact form, your details entered in the enquiry form, including the contact data stated by you there, shall be stored by us for the purpose of processing the enquiry and in the event that follow-up questions arise. We shall not forward such data without your consent.
The data entered in the contact form shall therefore be processed automatically on the basis of your consent (Article 6(1), point (a) GDPR. You may withdraw such consent at any time. To that end notification by e-mail sent to us without honouring any formal requirements is sufficient. This does not affect the legality of the data processing procedures performed up until the withdrawal.

The data you have entered in the contact form shall be retained by us until you request that they be deleted, you withdraw your consent to the storage or the data storage purpose becomes inapplicable (e.g. following completion of the processing of your enquiry). This does not affect mandatory legal provisions, in particular storage periods.

Enquiry by e-mail, telephone or fax

If you contact us by e-mail, telephone or fax, your enquiry, including all personal data emanating from that enquiry (data and enquiry) shall be stored and processed by us for the purpose of processing your matter. We shall not forward such data without your consent.

Such data shall be processed on the basis of Article 6(1), point (b), GDPR, provided your enquiry is associated with executing a contract or is required to perform pre-contractual measures. In all other cases, the processing is based on your consent (Article 6(1), point (a), GDPR) and / or on our justified interests (Article 6(1), point (f), GDPR) because we have a justified interest in the effective processing of the enquiries directed to us.

The data you have made available to us that you entered in the contact form shall be retained by us until you request that they be deleted, you withdraw your consent to the storage or the data storage purpose becomes inapplicable (e.g. following completion of the processing of your enquiry). This does not affect mandatory legal provisions, in particular in respect of storage periods.

Data processing (customer and contract data)

We collect, process and use personal data only insofar as this is required for the justification, content organisation or amendment of the legal relationship (fundamental data). This applies on the basis of Article 6(1), point (b), GDPR, which permits the processing of data to execute a contract or perform pre-contractual measures. We shall only collect, process and use personal data beyond the use of our website pages (use data) where such action is necessary to enable the user to use the service or to settle such a service.

The collected data shall be deleted following conclusion of the order or the end of the business relationship. This does not affect statutory storage periods.

Our website uses Plugins of the website Vimeo. The supplier is Vimeo Inc., 555 West 18th Street, New York, New York 10011, USA.

In addition, Vimeo obtains your IP address. This also applies if you have not logged in to Vimeo or do not have an account with Vimeo. The information recorded by Vimeo is forwarded to the Vimeo servers in the USA.

If you are logged in to your Vimeo account, you enable Vimeo to directly attribute your surfing behaviour to your personal profile. You can prevent this by logging out of your Vimeo account.

This does not affect other statutory storage periods.
