You have the right to have data that we process automatically on the basis of your consent or in fulfillment of a contract handed over to you or to a third party in a common, machine-readable format. If you request the direct transfer of the data to another controller, this will only be done to the extent technically feasible.

SSL or TLS encryption
For security reasons and to protect the transmission of confidential content, such as orders or inquiries that you send to us as the site operator, this site uses SSL or TLS encryption. You can recognize an encrypted connection by the fact that the browser's address line changes from "http://" to "https://" and by the lock icon in your browser line. If SSL or TLS encryption is activated, the data you transmit to us cannot be read by third parties.

Encrypted payment transactions on this website
If, after concluding a contract subject to a fee, you are obliged to transmit your payment details (e.g. account number for direct debit authorization) to us, this data is required to process payment. Payment transactions using standard means of payment (Visa/MasterCard, direct debit) are carried out exclusively via an encrypted SSL or TLS connection. You can recognize an encrypted connection by the fact that the browser's address line changes from "http://" to "https://" and by the lock icon in your browser line. With encrypted communication, your payment details that you transmit to us cannot be read by third parties.

Information, blocking, deletion
Within the scope of the applicable statutory provisions, you have the right at any time to free information about your stored personal data, its origin and recipients, and the purpose of the data processing, and, if applicable, a right to correction, blocking, or deletion of this data.

Objection to promotional emails We hereby object to the use of contact data published within the scope of the legal notice obligation for the purpose of sending advertising and information materials that were not expressly requested. The operators of these pages expressly reserve the right to take legal action in the event of the unsolicited sending of promotional information, such as through spam emails.

3. Data collection on our website
Cookies
Our websites partially use so-called cookies. Cookies do not cause any damage to your computer and do not contain viruses. Cookies serve to make our offering more user-friendly, effective, and secure. Cookies are small text files that are stored on your computer and saved 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 device until you delete them. These cookies enable us to recognize your browser the next time you visit. You can set your browser to inform you about the use of cookies so that you only allow cookies on a case-by-case basis, exclude the acceptance of cookies for certain cases or in general, and enable the automatic deletion of cookies when the browser is closed. If cookies are deactivated, the functionality of this website may be limited. Cookies that are necessary for carrying out the electronic communication process or for providing certain functions you wish to use (e.g. shopping cart function) are stored on the basis of Art. 6 (1) (f) GDPR. The website operator has a legitimate interest in the storage of cookies for the technically error-free and optimized provision of its services. Insofar as other cookies (e.g. cookies for analyzing your browsing behavior) are stored, these are dealt with separately in this privacy policy.

Server log files
The provider of these pages automatically collects and stores information in so-called server log files, which your browser automatically transmits to us. These are:
Browser type and browser version
Operating system used
Referrer URL
Host name of the accessing computer
Time of the server request
IP address

This data is not merged with other data sources. The basis for data processing is Art. 6 (1) (f) GDPR, which permits the processing of data to fulfill a contract or pre-contractual measures.

Contact form
If you send us inquiries via the contact form, your details from the inquiry form, including the contact information you provided there, will be stored by us for the purpose of processing the inquiry and in case of follow-up questions. We do not share this data without your consent. The processing of the data entered in the contact form is therefore based exclusively on your consent (Art. 6 (1) (a) GDPR). You can revoke this consent at any time. An informal email to us is sufficient for this. The lawfulness of the data processing operations carried out before the revocation remains unaffected by the revocation. The data you enter in the contact form will remain with us until you ask us to delete it, revoke your consent to storage, or the purpose for storing the data no longer applies (e.g. after your inquiry has been processed). Mandatory statutory provisions – in particular retention periods – remain unaffected.

Registration on this website
You can register on our website to use additional features on the site. We only use the data entered for this purpose to use the respective offer or service for which you have registered. The mandatory information requested during registration must be provided in full. Otherwise, we will reject the registration. For important changes, such as to the scope of the offer or in the event of technically necessary changes, we use the email address provided during registration to inform you in this way. The processing of the data entered during registration is based on your consent (Art. 6 (1) (a) GDPR). You may revoke any consent you have given at any time. An informal email to us is sufficient for this. The lawfulness of data processing already carried out remains unaffected by the revocation. The data collected during registration is stored by us for as long as you are registered on our website and is then deleted. Statutory retention periods remain unaffected.

Processing of data (customer and contract data)
We collect, process, and use personal data only insofar as it is necessary for the establishment, content, or modification of the legal relationship (inventory data). This is done on the basis of Art. 6 (1) (b) GDPR, which permits the processing of data to fulfill a contract or pre-contractual measures. We collect, process, and use personal data concerning the use of our website (usage data) only to the extent necessary to enable the user to use the service or to bill for it. The collected customer data is deleted upon completion of the order or termination of the business relationship. Statutory retention periods remain unaffected.

Data transfer upon conclusion of a contract for services and digital content
We only transfer personal data to third parties if this is necessary for the execution of the contract, for example to the credit institution commissioned to process payments. Data is not transferred further, or only if you have expressly consented to the transfer. Your data will not be passed on to third parties without your express consent, for example for advertising purposes. The basis for data processing is Art. 6 (1) (b) GDPR, which permits the processing of data to fulfill a contract or pre-contractual measures.
