How long do we store your data?

We adhere to the respective statutory retention period for the maximum duration of the storage of your personal data. Your data will only be stored by us until we no longer need it for our data processing. With regard to the storage of your data, we are bound by the purpose for which we collected your data. Unless a specific storage period is stated in this information, your personal data will remain with us until the purpose for data processing no longer applies.

If you assert a legitimate request for deletion or revoke your consent to data processing, we must delete your data in the event that there are no other legally permissible reasons for the continued storage of your data, such as retention periods under commercial and tax law. We can only comply with your request for deletion when these reasons no longer apply.

Where do we get your data?

We collect your data because you provide us with the data via a contact form or other means. There is additional data that is collected automatically or only after your consent when you visit our website. This is mainly technical data such as your operating system and the time of the page view

To whom do we provide your data?

We use tools from third-party companies based in and outside the EU and the EEA. Your personal data may be transferred to these third-party companies if you have activated these tools - unless they are necessary for the functionality of the website.

Furthermore, we also use tools from companies based in the USA or other third countries that are not secure under data protection law. Your personal data may also be transferred to these companies if you have activated the corresponding tools. In these countries, there is no level of data protection comparable to that in the EU

Such data transfer requires an adequacy decision issued by the EU Commission, which ensures a comparable level of protection of your personal data. In the event that there is no such adequacy decision, other appropriate safeguards pursuant to Article 44 GDPR et seq. must be taken.

What rights do you have? - Your data subject rights

You can assert your rights according to Article 12 GDPR et seq. can be asserted.

Revocation of consent to data processing

In part, we process your data with your express consent. You can revoke an already given consent at any time with effect for the future. You assert the revocation by means of informal communication by e-mail to us. You can also contact our data protection officer, he will inform us of your request. However, the legality of the data processing carried out until the revocation remains unaffected by the revocation exercised by you.

Objection in special cases / against direct advertising, Article 21 GDPR

If the data processing is carried out on the basis of Article 6 Paragraph 1 Subparagraph 1 (f) GDPR, then you can object to the processing of your personal data for reasons that arise from your particular situation. This also applies to any profiling - the legal basis for such profiling can be found in this information. If you exercise your right to object, your personal data concerned will no longer be processed unless we can demonstrate compelling legitimate grounds for the processing which override your interests, rights and freedoms, or the processing serves the purpose of asserting, exercising or defending legal claims under Article 21 Paragraph 1 GDPR.

If we process your personal data for direct marketing, you have the right to object to the processing of personal data concerning you for the purpose of such marketing. This also applies to profiling insofar as it is related to direct advertising. If you object, your personal data will subsequently no longer be sent for the purpose of direct advertising in accordance with Article 21 Paragraph 2 GDPR.

Right to data portability

You have the right to have data that we process automatically handed over to you or to a third party in a common machine-readable format. If you request the transfer of the data to another controller, it will only be done if it is technically possible.

Right to information, deletion and correction

Within the scope of Article 15 Paragraph 1 GDPR, you can assert the right to free information about your stored personal data, their origin, recipients and the purpose of data processing. Furthermore, you could assert a right to correction or deletion of this data, if applicable. If you have any questions about your rights, you can contact us or our data protection officer at any time.

Right to restriction of processing

You may also request the restriction of the processing of your personal data. If you have any questions about this right, you can contact us or our data protection officer at any time. A right to restriction exists in the cases specified by law. If you dispute the accuracy of your data, we need time to verify this. For this period, you have the right to request restriction of your data. In the event that the processing of your data is unlawful, you can demand the restriction of processing instead of the deletion of the data. If we no longer need your personal data, but you wish to exercise, defend or assert legal claims, you have the right to request at least the restriction of data processing. If you have lodged an objection in accordance with Article 21 Paragraph 1 GDPR, we must weigh your interests against ours, during which time you have the right to request the restriction of the data.

If you have restricted the processing of your personal data, this data may - apart from being stored - only be processed with your consent or for the assertion, exercise or defense of legal claims or for the protection of the rights of another natural or legal person or for reasons of an important public interest of the European Union or any Member State.

Right of complaint to a competent supervisory authority

As a data subject, you still have the right to file a complaint with a supervisory authority in the event of violations of the GDPR. This must be the competent supervisory authority under data protection law in your federal state. You always have the right to file a complaint, regardless of what other measures you take.

When you enter our website, a connection is established to the provider's servers so that your consent or other declarations regarding the setting of cookies can be obtained. After the declaration has been made, our provider stores a cookie in your internet browser so that it can assign whether you have consented to the cookies being set or whether you have rejected them. Furthermore, it is used to allocate any revocation that may have taken place at a later date. This data is stored until you request us to delete the data, delete the cookie yourself or the purpose for data processing no longer applies.

The use of chatbots

To communicate with you more easily, we use chatbots. Chatbots can answer questions and other inputs without the need for human assistance. Chatbots collect your personal data, which includes: Name, email address, contact details, customer number, other identification data, orders and chat history. Chatbots also collect metadata, your IP address, log files and location information. The collected data is stored on the chatbot's servers. User profiles are created using the collected data and used for advertising, provided that the legal requirements - in particular consent - are met. In order to be able to implement this, chatbots are linked to analysis and advertising tools. We use your data to improve the chatbot's responses.

We use a chatbot from an external provider. It can be used via a social network such as Instagram and Meta Messenger. The stored data may therefore be made available to Meta. The processed data may therefore also be transferred to the USA and other third countries. Data transfer to the USA is currently based on an adequacy decision by the EU Commission, which legitimizes data transfer to certified partners.

The legal basis for the processing of your data is Article 6 Paragraph 1 Subparagraph 1 (b) GDPR, if your request serves to initiate or fulfil a contract. In the event that we have requested consent, data processing is only carried out on the basis of Article 6 Paragraph 1 Subparagraph 1 (a) GDPR and Section 25 Paragraph 1 TDDDG, insofar as the consent includes the storage of cookies or access to information in the user's terminal device as defined by the TDDDG.

Data processing by social networks

We use a publicly accessible profile on various social networks.

The social networks may already analyse your behaviour when you visit our website, as we have integrated plug-ins of the social networks or other links. Personal data is also collected if you are not logged in as a user or do not have an account with the respective provider. Your data is collected via cookies that are stored in your terminal device or by recording your IP address.

The social networks create user profiles. In these profiles, they store your interests and preferences so that you are shown interest-based advertising. If you maintain a profile with the respective provider, the advertising will be displayed on all devices on which you are or were logged in.

The data you provide will remain with us until you request us to delete it or revoke your consent to store it. Mandatory legal provisions such as statutory retention periods remain unaffected. Stored cookies, unless they are session cookies, remain on your device until you delete them.

Meta Plug-In and Meta Profile

We maintain a profile on Meta (formerly Facebook). The provider is Meta Platforms Ireland Limited, 4 Grand Canal Square, Grand Canal Harbour, Dublin 2, Ireland (hereinafter: "Meta"). In addition, we have integrated a plug-in from Meta on our website. You can recognise these by the Meta profile button or the "Like" button. You can find an overview of the Facebook/Meta plug-ins at: https://developers.facebook.com/docs/plugins/?locale=de_DE.

The mere integration of the plug-in does not lead to any direct data transmission to Meta. Personal data is only processed when information is called up that goes beyond the start page of a Meta profile; this processing is no longer attributable to us as the operator, as you have voluntarily placed yourself under Meta's data sovereignty with your consent through the "two-click solution".

The legal basis for our data processing is our legitimate interest in achieving the greatest possible visibility in social media in accordance with Article 6 Paragraph 1 Subparagraph 1 (f) GDPR.

If a corresponding consent has been requested, Meta's data processing is based on your consent in accordance with Article 6 Paragraph 1 Subparagraph 1 (a) GDPR. You can revoke your consent at any time with effect for the future. You can revoke your consent by sending us an informal e-mail. You can also contact our data protection officer, who will inform us of your request. However, the legality of the data processing carried out until the revocation remains unaffected by the revocation exercised by you.

The use of a Meta profile does not result in joint responsibility for any data processing of personal data according to Art. 26 GDPR. By using the "two-click solution" provided by us, you voluntarily decide to place yourself under the data sovereignty of Meta. Contrary to the ECJ ruling of 05.06.2018, C-210/16, there is therefore no responsibility based on a joint decision on the purposes and means of data processing, as Meta only processes personal data at the time when you have already voluntarily placed yourself under Meta's data sovereignty. The processing of personal data that takes place after the transfer to Meta is not attributable to us. Furthermore, in the event of joint responsibility, the required agreement pursuant to Art. 26 Paragraph 3 of GDPR can be found in the addendum provided by Meta: https://www.facebook.com/legal/controller_addendum. According to this agreement, we are obliged to provide the data protection information in accordance with Article 13 GDPR et seq. and to integrate the Meta-Tool on our website in a data protection compliant manner. You can assert your data protection rights directly with Meta. In the event that you assert your data protection rights with us in relation to the use of Meta, we are obliged to forward your request to Meta.

The data processed by Meta is also transferred to the USA and other third countries. The data transfer to the USA is again based on an adequacy decision of the EU Commission. Meta is a certified partner for the EU-US Privacy Framework. Details can be found at: https://facebook.com/legal/EU_data_transfer_addendum, https://de-de.facebook.com/help/566994660333381 and https://facebook.com/policy.php.

The legal basis for our data processing is our legitimate interest in achieving the greatest possible visibility in social media in accordance with Article 6 Paragraph 1 Subparagraph 1 (f) GDPR.

The use of an Instagram profile does not result in joint responsibility for any data processing of personal data according to Article 26 GDPR. By using the "two-click solution" provided by us, you voluntarily decide to place yourself under the data sovereignty of Meta. Contrary to the ECJ ruling of 05.06.2018, C-210/16, there is therefore no responsibility based on a joint decision on the purposes and means of data processing, as Meta only processes personal data at the time when you have already voluntarily placed yourself under Meta's data sovereignty. The processing of personal data that takes place after the transfer to Meta is not attributable to us.

The integration of the plug-in alone does not lead to any direct data transmission to X. Personal data is only processed when information is called up that goes beyond the start page of a X profile; this processing is no longer attributable to us as the operator, as you have voluntarily placed yourself under the data sovereignty of X with your consent through the "two-click solution".

The legal basis for our data processing is our legitimate interest in achieving the greatest possible visibility in social media in accordance with Article 6 Paragraph 1 Subparagraph 1 (f) GDPR.

If a corresponding consent was requested, the data processing by X is based on your consent in accordance with Article 6 Paragraph 1 Subparagraph 1 (a) GDPR. You can revoke your consent at any time with effect for the future. You can revoke your consent by sending us an informal e-mail. You can also contact our data protection officer, who will inform us of your request. However, the legality of the data processing carried out until the revocation remains unaffected by the revocation exercised by you.

The data processed by X is also transferred to the USA and other third countries. The data transfer to the USA is again based on an adequacy decision of the EU Commission. X is a certified partner for the EU-US Privacy Framework. Details can be found at: https://gdpr.X.com/en/controller-to-controller-transfers.html.
