  1. Cookies

To make the visit to our website more attractive and to enable the use of certain features, we use cookies on various pages. These are small text files that are stored on your device. Some of the cookies we use are deleted at the end of the browsing session, i.e., after you close your browser (referred to as session cookies).

When a cookie is placed, it collects and processes certain user information such as browser and location data, as well as IP address values. Persistent cookies are automatically deleted after a specified period, which may vary depending on the cookie.

In some cases, cookies serve to simplify the ordering process by saving settings (e.g., saving the contents of a virtual shopping cart for a later visit). To the extent that cookies we implement also process personal data, the processing is carried out in accordance with Art. 6 para. 1 lit. b GDPR for the performance of the contract or in accordance with Art. 6 para. 1 lit. f GDPR to protect our legitimate interests in providing the best functionality of the site as well as in the user-friendly and efficient design of the site visit.

Please note that you can configure your browser to inform you about the placement of cookies and that you can accept or decline their use individually or exclude the acceptance of cookies in certain cases or in general. Each browser differs regarding cookie settings. This is described in the help menu of each browser, which explains how to change your cookie settings.

Please note that if you decline cookies, the functionality of our site may be limited.

The data collected in the case of a contact form is visible in the respective contact form. This data is stored and used solely to respond to your request or for the contact and related technical administration. The legal basis for processing the data is our legitimate interest in responding to your request in accordance with Art. 6 para. 1 lit. f GDPR. If your contact is aimed at concluding a contract, the additional legal basis for processing is Art. 6 para. 1 lit. b GDPR.

The data collected is visible in the respective input forms. You can delete your customer account at any time by sending a message to the address mentioned above of the controller. We store and use the data you provided for the execution of the contract. After the contract is fully executed or your customer account is deleted, your data will be blocked due to tax and commercial retention periods and deleted after these periods have expired, unless you have explicitly consented to further use of your data or we reserve another legally authorized use of the data, which we will inform you about accordingly.

  1. Use of Your Data for Direct Marketing

6.1 Subscription to Our Email Newsletter

When you subscribe to our email newsletter, we send you regular information about our offers. The email address is the only mandatory information for sending the newsletter. Providing additional data is optional and serves to personalize the communication. For sending the newsletter, we use the so-called double opt-in method. This means that we will only send you an email newsletter if you have explicitly confirmed that you consent to receiving newsletters. We then send you a confirmation email in which we ask you to confirm by clicking on a link that you wish to receive newsletters in the future.

By activating the confirmation link, you give your consent for the use of your personal data in accordance with Art. 6 para. 1 lit. a GDPR. When subscribing to the newsletter, we store the IP address that your Internet Service Provider (ISP) has registered, as well as the date and time of the subscription, in order to trace any possible misuse of your email address later. The data we collect during your newsletter subscription is used exclusively to contact you for advertising purposes in the context of the newsletter. You can unsubscribe from the newsletter at any time using the unsubscribe link provided in the newsletter or by sending a message to the address of the controller mentioned above. After your unsubscribe request, your email address will be immediately removed from our newsletter mailing list, unless you have expressly consented to further use of your data or we reserve another use of the data that is legally authorized, and we inform you about it in this statement.

6.2 Sending the Newsletter by Email to Existing Customers (Continued)

Data processing is carried out solely based on our legitimate interest in personalized direct advertising in accordance with Art. 6 para. 1 lit. f GDPR. You can object to this processing at any time by sending us a message using the contact details mentioned above. Additionally, you will find an unsubscribe link in each marketing email. After your objection, your email address will be immediately removed from our mailing list.

We only share your personal data with third parties if it is necessary for the execution of the contract, such as with credit institutions responsible for processing payments. Your personal data will not be shared with other third parties without your explicit consent, unless we are legally required to do so.

7.2 Other Service Providers

We may also engage external service providers to carry out certain tasks (e.g., managing the newsletter, processing payments, shipping orders, etc.).
