General Information on the Legal Bases for Data Processing on This Website
Where you have consented to data processing, we process your personal data on the basis of Art. 6(1)(a) GDPR or Art. 9(2)(a) GDPR where special categories of data pursuant to Art. 9(1) GDPR are processed. In the event that you have expressly consented to the transfer of personal data to third countries, data processing is also carried out on the basis of Art. 49(1)(a) GDPR. Where you have consented to the storage of cookies or access to information on your terminal device, such as through device fingerprinting, the data processing is additionally carried out on the basis of Section 25(1) TDDDG.

Information regarding the relevant legal basis applicable in each individual case is provided in the following sections of this privacy policy.
Recipients of Personal Data
As part of our business activities, we work with various external organisations. In some cases, this also requires the transmission of personal data to these external organisations. We disclose personal data to external organisations only where this is necessary for the performance of a contract, where we are legally required to do so, such as the disclosure of data to tax authorities, where we have a legitimate interest in the disclosure pursuant to Art. 6(1)(f) GDPR or where another legal basis permits the disclosure. Where we use processors, we disclose our customers’ personal data only on the basis of a valid data processing agreement. In the event of joint processing, a joint processing agreement will be concluded.
Withdrawal of Your Consent to Data Processing
Many data processing activities are possible only with your express consent. You may withdraw consent that you have already provided at any time. The lawfulness of the data processing carried out before the withdrawal remains unaffected by the withdrawal.
Right to Object to Data Collection in Specific Cases and to Direct Marketing (Art. 21 GDPR)
WHERE DATA PROCESSING IS CARRIED OUT ON THE BASIS OF ART. 6(1)(E) OR (F) GDPR, YOU HAVE THE RIGHT AT ANY TIME, ON GROUNDS RELATING TO YOUR PARTICULAR SITUATION, TO OBJECT TO THE PROCESSING OF YOUR PERSONAL DATA. THIS ALSO APPLIES TO PROFILING BASED ON THESE PROVISIONS. THE RELEVANT LEGAL BASIS ON WHICH PROCESSING IS BASED CAN BE FOUND IN THIS PRIVACY POLICY. IF YOU OBJECT, WE WILL NO LONGER PROCESS THE PERSONAL DATA CONCERNED UNLESS WE CAN DEMONSTRATE COMPELLING LEGITIMATE GROUNDS FOR THE PROCESSING THAT OVERRIDE YOUR INTERESTS, RIGHTS AND FREEDOMS, OR UNLESS THE PROCESSING SERVES THE ESTABLISHMENT, EXERCISE OR DEFENCE OF LEGAL CLAIMS. THIS IS AN OBJECTION PURSUANT TO ART. 21(1) GDPR.
WHERE YOUR PERSONAL DATA IS PROCESSED FOR DIRECT MARKETING PURPOSES, YOU HAVE THE RIGHT AT ANY TIME TO OBJECT TO THE PROCESSING OF PERSONAL DATA CONCERNING YOU FOR THE PURPOSES OF SUCH MARKETING. THIS ALSO APPLIES TO PROFILING TO THE EXTENT THAT IT IS RELATED TO SUCH DIRECT MARKETING. IF YOU OBJECT, YOUR PERSONAL DATA WILL THEREAFTER NO LONGER BE USED FOR DIRECT MARKETING PURPOSES. THIS IS AN OBJECTION PURSUANT TO ART. 21(2) GDPR.
Right to Lodge a Complaint with the Competent Supervisory Authority
In the event of infringements of the GDPR, data subjects have the right to lodge a complaint with a supervisory authority, in particular in the Member State of their habitual residence, place of work or place of the alleged infringement. The right to lodge a complaint exists without prejudice to any other administrative or judicial remedies.
Right to Data Portability
You have the right to receive data that we process automatically on the basis of your consent or in performance of a contract, or to have it provided to a third party, in a commonly used, machine-readable format. Where you request the direct transfer of the data to another controller, this will be carried out only where technically feasible.
Access, Rectification and Deletion
Within the scope of the applicable legal provisions, you have the right at any time to receive information, free of charge, about your stored personal data, its origin and recipients and the purpose of the data processing. Where applicable, you also have the right to request the rectification or deletion of this data. You may contact us at any time regarding this matter or any other questions concerning personal data.
Right to Restriction of Processing
You have the right to request the restriction of the processing of your personal data. You may contact us at any time to exercise this right. The right to restriction of processing applies in the following cases:
- If you dispute the accuracy of the personal data stored by us, we will generally require time to verify this. For the duration of the verification, you have the right to request that the processing of your personal data be restricted.
- If the processing of your personal data was or is unlawful, you may request the restriction of data processing instead of deletion.
- If we no longer require your personal data but you require it for the establishment, exercise or defence of legal claims, you have the right to request restriction of the processing of your personal data instead of deletion.
- If you have submitted an objection pursuant to Art. 21(1) GDPR, a balance must be struck between your interests and ours. Until it has been determined whose interests prevail, you have the right to request that the processing of your personal data be restricted.
Where you have restricted the processing of your personal data, this data may, with the exception of storage, be processed only with your consent, for the establishment, exercise or defence of legal claims, for the protection of the rights of another natural or legal person or for reasons of important public interest of the European Union or a Member State.
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 connection by the fact that the address line of your browser changes from “http://” to “https://” and by the padlock symbol in your browser’s address bar.
When SSL or TLS encryption is enabled, the data that you transmit to us cannot be read by third parties.

Our websites use so-called “cookies”. Cookies are small data packages and do not cause any damage to your terminal device. They are stored on your terminal device either temporarily for the duration of a session, known as session cookies, or permanently, known as persistent cookies. Session cookies are automatically deleted at the end of your visit. Persistent cookies remain stored on your terminal device until you delete them yourself or they are automatically deleted by your web browser.
Cookies may originate from us, known as first-party cookies, or from third-party companies, known as third-party cookies. Third-party cookies enable certain services provided by third-party companies to be integrated into websites, such as cookies used to process payment services.
Cookies perform various functions. Many cookies are technically necessary because certain website functions would not work without them, such as the shopping cart function or the display of videos. Other cookies may be used to analyse user behaviour or for advertising purposes.
Cookies that are required to carry out electronic communications, provide certain functions requested by you, such as the shopping cart function, or optimise the website, such as cookies used to measure the website audience, are stored on the basis of Art. 6(1)(f) GDPR unless another legal basis is specified. The website operator has a legitimate interest in storing necessary cookies to ensure the technically error-free and optimised provision of its services. Where consent to the storage of cookies and comparable recognition technologies has been requested, processing is carried out exclusively on the basis of this consent pursuant to Art. 6(1)(a) GDPR and Section 25(1) TDDDG. Consent may be withdrawn at any time.
You can configure your browser to inform you when cookies are being set, permit cookies only in individual cases, exclude the acceptance of cookies in certain cases or generally, and activate the automatic deletion of cookies when the browser is closed. Disabling cookies may restrict the functionality of this website.
Where additional cookies and services are used on this website, further information can be found in this privacy policy.
Enquiries by Email, Telephone or Fax
If you contact us by email, telephone or fax, your enquiry, including all personal data arising from it, such as your name and the content of your enquiry, will be stored and processed by us for the purpose of handling your request. We will not disclose this data without your consent.
This data is processed on the basis of Art. 6(1)(b) GDPR where your enquiry is connected with the performance of a contract or is necessary for the implementation of pre-contractual measures. In all other cases, processing is based on our legitimate interest in the effective handling of enquiries addressed to us pursuant to Art. 6(1)(f) GDPR or on your consent pursuant to Art. 6(1)(a) GDPR where such consent has been requested. Consent may be withdrawn at any time.
The data you send to us through contact enquiries will remain with us until you request its deletion, withdraw your consent to its storage or the purpose for storing the data no longer applies, such as after your enquiry has been fully processed. Mandatory statutory provisions, in particular statutory retention periods, remain unaffected.
