2.1 Access data

We collect information about you when you visit this website. We automatically collect information about your usage behaviour and interaction with us and thereby record data about your computer or mobile device. We collect, store and utilise data about every login to our website (known as server log files). The login data include, among others;

– name and URL of the requested file
– date and time of the access
– amount of data transferred
– notification of successful request
– browser model and browser version
– operating system
– referrer URL (i.e. the last page visited)
– websites that the user’s system accesses via our website
– Internet service provider of the user
– IP address and the requesting provider

We utilise this log data without allocation to your person or other profiling for statistical evaluations for the purpose of operating our business, for security and optimisation of our website, but also for anonymous recording of the number of visitors to our website as well as the extent and type of utilisation of our website and services, as well as for calculation purposes in order to measure the number of clicks received from cooperation partners. Based on this information, we can provide personalised and location-based content, analyse traffic, troubleshoot and remedy errors or faults as well as improve our services. This is also relates to our legitimate interest pursuant to Article 6 Paragraph 1 S. 1 f) GDPR.

We reserve the right to subsequently inspect the log data in the event that there is a justified suspicion of illegal utilisation based on specific, defined evidence. We store IP addresses in the log files for a limited period of time when this is necessary for security purposes or for the provision of services or invoicing for a service e.g. when you utilise one of our offers. After the order process has been terminated or a remittance has been received, we will delete the IP address if this is no longer required for security purposes. We also store IP addresses when we have a specific, defined suspicion relating to a criminal offence in connection with the utilisation of our website. We also store the date of your last visit as a part of your account (e.g. registration, login, clicking on links).

2.3 Cookies

We utilise so-called session cookies to optimise our website. A session cookie is a small text data file that is sent by the respective servers when you visit a website and is then stored temporarily on your hard drive. Such data also contain what is known as a Session ID, which enables various requests to be allocated to your browser during the shared session. This allows your computer to be recognised again when you return to our website. These cookies will be deleted once you close your browser. These enable you, for example, to utilise the shopping basket function across several pages.

We also utilise persistent cookies (also small text data files that are stored on your terminal device) to a limited extent, which remain on your terminal device and enable us to recognise your browser again the next time you visit the website. These cookies will be stored on your hard disc and are subsequently automatically deleted after the specified time. Their lifespan is 1 month to 10 years. This enables us to present our services to you in a more user-friendly, effective and secure manner and, for example, to display information on the website that is specifically tailored to your particular interests.

Our legitimate interest in the use of cookies pursuant to Article. 6 Paragraph 1 S. 1 f) GDPR is intended to make our website more user-friendly, effective and secure. In the cookies data and information are stored, for example,log-ininformation, language settings, entered search terms or information on the number of visits to our website, as well as the usage of individual functions of our website.

When the cookie is activated, it will then be assigned an identification number; your personal data will not be assigned to this identification number. Your name, your IP address or similar data, which would enable the cookie to be assigned to you are not placed in the cookie. Based on the cookie technology involved, we only receive pseudonymous information, for example about which pages of our shop have been visited, which products have been viewed, etc.

You can set your browser in such a way that you will be informed in advance about the use of cookies and can decide in individual cases whether to accept individual cookies or refuse the acceptance of cookies for certain cases or in general or that the cookies will be prevented completely. This could result in the website functionality being reduced.

We process personal data that we require to fulfil our contractual obligations, such as name, address, e-mail address, ordered products, invoicing data and payment data. The collection of these data is required for concluding the contract. The data will be deleted after the expiry of the guarantee and/or warranty periods and statutory retention periods. Data that are linked to the user account (refer to below) will be retained in all cases for as long as the account is active and being managed. The legal sbasis for the processing of these data is Article 6 Paragraph 1 S. 1 b) GDPR, as these data are required so that we can fulfil our contractual obligations on your behalf.

When you contact us (e.g. via contact form or e-mail), we will then process your details in order to deal with your enquiry and also in the event that follow-up questions could arise. If the data processing is implemented for the execution of pre-contractual measures, which will then be executed at your request and/or if you are already our customer, for the execution of the contract, then the legal basis for this data processing is Article 6 Paragraph 1 S. 1 b) GDPR. We will only process additional personal data when you provide your consent (Article 6 Paragraph 1 S. 1 a) GDPR) or if we have a legitimate interest in processing your data (Article 6 Paragraph 1 S. 1 f) GDPR).

In some certain cases, the legislator provides for the storage of personal data, for example in cases of tax law or commercial law.
