With regard to the data processing to be described in more detail below, users and data subjects have the right

III. Information about the data processing
Your data processed when using our website will be deleted or blocked as soon as the purpose for its storage ceases to apply, provided the deletion of the same is not in breach of any statutory storage obligations or unless otherwise stipulated below.
Server data
For technical reasons, the following data sent by your internet browser to us or to our server provider will be collected, especially to ensure a secure and stable website: These server log files record the type and version of your browser, operating system, the website from which you came (referrer URL), the webpages on our site visited, the date and time of your visit, as well as the IP address from which you visited our site.
The data thus collected will be temporarily stored, but not in association with any other of your data.
The basis for this storage is Art. 6 Para. 1 lit. f) GDPR. Our legitimate interest lies in the improvement, stability, functionality, and security of our website.
The data will be deleted within no more than seven days, unless continued storage is required for evidentiary purposes. In which case, all or part of the data will be excluded from deletion until the investigation of the relevant incident is finally resolved.
Cookies
a) Session cookies
We use cookies on our website. Cookies are small text files or other storage technologies stored on your computer by your browser. These cookies process certain specific information about you, such as your browser, location data, or IP address.
This processing makes our website more user-friendly, efficient, and secure, allowing us, for example, to display our website in different languages or to offer a shopping cart function.
The legal basis for such processing is Art. 6 Para. 1 lit. b) GDPR, insofar as these cookies are used to collect data to initiate or process contractual relationships.
If the processing does not serve to initiate or process a contract, our legitimate interest lies in improving the functionality of our website. The legal basis is then Art. 6 Para. 1 lit. f) GDPR.
When you close your browser, these session cookies are deleted.
b) Third-party cookies
If necessary, our website may also use cookies from companies with whom we cooperate for the purpose of advertising, analyzing, or improving the features of our website.
Please refer to the following information for details, in particular for the legal basis and purpose of such third-party collection and processing of data collected through cookies.
c) Disabling cookies
You can refuse the use of cookies by changing the settings on your browser. Likewise, you can use the browser to delete cookies that have already been stored. However, the steps and measures required vary, depending on the browser you use. If you have any questions, please use the help function or consult the documentation for your browser or contact its maker for support. Browser settings cannot prevent so-called flash cookies from being set. Instead, you will need to change the setting of your Flash player. The steps and measures required for this also depend on the Flash player you are using. If you have any questions, please use the help function or consult the documentation for your Flash player or contact its maker for support.
If you prevent or restrict the installation of cookies, not all of the functions on our site may be fully usable.
d) Deleting Cookies and Do-not-track Settings
Using your browser settings you can delete single cookies and also all cookies stored by your browser. For more information and instructions on how to delete cookies and how to prevent them from being stored, please check out the following websites:
The cookies and advertising functions of many companies can also be managed individually using the following user tools:
In addition, many browsers provide a so-called "do-not-track function" which allows you to prevent websites from following you. When this function is active, the browser tells advertising networks, websites and applications not to track your online activities in order to deliver behavioral advertising. For more information and instructions on how to enable this feature, please visit the following websites:
There are also browser extensions which allow executable web content based on JavaScript, Java, Flash and other plug-ins to be loaded only if the website is considered trusted by the user and has been previously added to a whitelist. The "NoScript" plug-in for Mozilla Firefox is an example of such a browser extension. For more details, please refer to the information and instructions provided by the browser vendor. Example:
Tracking Matomo
We use Matomo (formerly: "PIWIK") on our website. This is an open source software that allows us to analyse the use of our website. Your IP address, the website(s) of our website that you visit, the website from which you linked to our website (referrer URL), the time you spend on our website and the frequency with which you visit one of our websites are processed.
To collect this data, Matomo stores a cookie on your end device via your internet browser. This cookie is valid for one week.
The legal basis is Art. 6 para. 1 lit. f) DSGVO. Our legitimate interest lies in the analysis and optimisation of our website.
However, we use Matomo with the anonymisation function "Automatically Anonymize Visitor IPs". This anonymisation function shortens your IP address by two bytes so that it is impossible to assign it to you or to the internet connection you are using.
If you do not agree to this processing, you have the option of preventing the storage of the cookie by means of a setting in your Internet browser. You can find more information on this above under "Cookies".
In addition, you have the option of ending the analysis of your usage behaviour by means of the so-called opt-out. By confirming the link, a cookie will be saved on your end device via your internet browser, which prevents further analysis. Please note, however, that you will have to click on the above link again if you delete the cookies stored on your terminal device.
Order processing
The data you submit when ordering goods and/or services from us will have to be processed in order to fulfill your order. Please note that orders cannot be processed without providing this data.
The legal basis for this processing is Art. 6 Para. 1 lit. b) GDPR.
After your order has been completed, your personal data will be deleted, but only after the retention periods required by tax and commercial law.
In order to process your order, we will share your data with the shipping company responsible for delivery to the extent required to deliver your order and/or with the payment service provider to the extent required to process your payment.
The legal basis for the transfer of this data is Art. 6 Para. 1 lit. b) GDPR.

Contact
If you contact us via email or the contact form, the data you provide will be used for the purpose of processing your request. We must have this data in order to process and answer your inquiry; otherwise we will not be able to answer it in full or at all.
The legal basis for this data processing is Art. 6 Para. 1 lit. b) GDPR.
Your data will be deleted once we have fully answered your inquiry and there is no further legal obligation to store your data, such as if an order or contract resulted therefrom.

We have no influence on the data collected and data processing at the social media providers, nor are we aware of the full extent of data collection, the purposes of processing, the storage periods. We also have no information on the deletion of the data collected by the providers.
The providers store data collected about you as user profiles and use these for the purposes of advertising, market research and/or demand-oriented design of their website. Such an evaluation takes place in particular (also for not logged in users) for the representation of demand-fair advertisement and in order to inform other users of the social network about your activities on our website. You have a right of objection to the creation of these user profiles, whereby you must contact the respective provider to exercise this right. Through social media channels we offer you the opportunity to interact with social networks and other users, so that we can improve our offer and make it more interesting for you as a user. The legal basis for the use of social media is Art. 6 para. 1 sentence 1 lit. f GDPR.
The data processing at the providers is independent of whether you have an account with the provider concerned and are logged in there. If you are logged in, your data collected with us will be directly assigned to your existing account with the provider. We recommend that you log out regularly after using a social network.
Further information on the purpose and scope of data collection and its processing by the providers can be found in the data protection declarations notified below. They will also provide you with further information about your rights in this regard and setting options to protect your privacy.
