And databases or data sets that include Personal Data may be breached inadvertently or through wrongful intrusion. Upon becoming aware of a data breach, we will notify all affected individuals whose Personal Data may have been compromised as expeditiously as possible after which the breach was discovered.

Processing of your Personal Data

a)     Log files

As mentioned above, we want to provide you with an optimal user experience in our online shop and with our advertisements, which is tailored to your individual needs. To this end, we work together with various service providers and technology providers and use cookies and tracking methods.

 

The following data is collected anonymously for the purpose of demand-oriented design and optimization of this website:

 

      Information on the device used (e.g., operating system, browser, screen resolution, language set.

      Information on pages viewed during the website visit (e.g., category or product detail pages)

      Information within the ordering process (e.g., order number, delivery and payment method, shipping and/or billing address)

      Information on access data (e.g., entry via email newsletters, other websites or online advertising measures).

 

The scope of the stored and processed data is limited purely to the performance of statistical evaluations. Your IP address is made unrecognizable immediately after receipt, which means that it is not possible to assign usage profiles to IP addresses.

 

The collection of the data is necessary from a technical point of view in order to continuously optimize the functions as well as the presentation of our website on different devices, operating systems and browsers and to be able to make our offer more interesting for you as a user and is therefore based on the legitimate interest.

 

b)     Content Management System

We also use the Content Management System (CMS) of WordPress by Automattic Inc to publish and maintain the created and edited content and texts on our website. This means that all content and texts submitted to our website are transferred to WordPress. The legal basis for this processing is our legitimate interest.

 

c)     Cookies

We distinguish between two categories of cookies:

 

Essential or Necessary cookies. These cookies are essential or necessary to ensure that a website works properly and is secure so that you can navigate a website and use its features. Without these cookies, certain features of a website would not function, and thus you would not be able to use certain services.

 

Optional cookies. These cookies are non-essential for the website to function and require your consent. When it comes to optional cookies the following distinctions are made:

 

      Functional cookies or sometimes called convenience cookies. These cookies allow a website to remember the options a user has made (including user ID`s stored, consents given, or languages selected) and other personalization options you have selected when browsing.

 

      Analysis and performance cookies, which are used to monitor and improve the function and service of a website. Those can track down problems when using a website, facilitate online surveys, record visitor numbers, and provide analytics metrics.

 

      Advertising cookies or targeting cookies. They are used to deliver customized advertising to the user. This can be very convenient, but also very irritating.

 

The DPDPA, the UK`s Privacy and Electronic Communications Regulations (“PECR”) and the EU`s Privacy and Electronic Communications Directive (“PECD”), require us to ask for your consent when using specific cookies (in particular any cookie that is not strictly necessary for the operation of the website, for example, Functional cookies, Analysis and performance cookies and Advertising cookies or targeting cookies “Optional cookies”).

 

Further and as the DPDPA, DPA and the GDPR also require a legal basis for the use of personal data in relation to cookies, the use of cookies would then be your consent as well as our legitimate interest.

 

We only use optional cookies with your prior consent. If you are visiting our website for the first time, a banner will appear on our website asking for your consent to use optional cookies. If you consent to this, we will store a cookie on your computer and the banner will not be displayed again for the lifetime of the cookie. Thereafter, or if you actively delete this cookie beforehand, the banner will be displayed again the next time you visit our website in order to obtain your consent again.

 

Of course, you can also use our website entirely without cookies. You can configure the use of cookies in your browser settings by following the relevant link Google Chrome, Mozilla Firefox, Flash cookies, Microsoft Internet Explorer and Edge, Opera, Safari at any time or deactivate them completely. However, this may lead to restrictions in the functions or user-friendliness of our offer.
