Data protection

Unless otherwise stated below, the provision of your personal data is neither required by law or contract, or is it necessary for the conclusion of a contract. You are not obliged to provide the data. Failure to provide has no consequences. This only applies if no other information is given in the subsequent processing operations.
"Personal data" is all information that relates to an identified or identifiable natural person.


Collection and processing when using the contact form.
When using the contact form, we only collect your personal data (name, email address, message text) to the extent that you provide. The data processing serves the purpose of establishing contact. By submitting your message, you consent to the processing of the transmitted data. Processing is based on Art. 6 (1) lit. a DSGVO with your consent.
You can revoke your consent at any time by notifying us without affecting the lawfulness of the processing carried out based on your consent until you revoke it. We only use your email address to process your request. Your data will then be deleted unless you have consented to further processing and use.


Collection, processing and use of personal data when placing orders
When ordering, we only collect and use your personal data insofar as this is necessary to use the email address for sending newsletters. We use your email address, regardless of the contract, only for our own advertising purposes for sending the newsletter, provided you have expressly agreed to this. Processing is based on Art. 6 (1) lit. a DSGVO with your consent. You can revoke your consent at any time without affecting the lawfulness of the processing carried out based on your consent until you revoke it. You can unsubscribe from the newsletter at any time using the corresponding link in the newsletter or by notifying us. Your email address will then be removed from the mailing list.

Forwarding of the email address to shipping companies for information about the shipping status
We will pass on your email address to the transport company as part of the contract, provided you have expressly agreed to this in the ordering process. The purpose of the transfer is to inform you of the shipping status by email. Processing is based on Art. 6 (1) lit. a GDPR with your consent. You can revoke your consent at any time by notifying us or the transport company without affecting the legality of the processing carried out based on your consent until the revocation.

Use of Google Maps
We use the function for embedding Google Maps from Google Inc. on our website (1600 Amphitheater Parkway, Mountain View, CA 94043, USA; “Google”).
The function enables the visual display of geographic information and interactive maps.
When calling up the pages in which GoogleMaps maps are integrated, Google also collects, processes and uses data from the visitors to the pages. You can find more information on the collection and use of data by Google in Google's data protection information at https://www.google.com/privacypolicy.html. There you also have the option of changing your settings in the data protection center so that you can manage and protect your data processed by Google.
Your data may also be transferred to the United States. An adequacy decision by the European Commission exists for data transfers to the USA.
For reasons arising from your particular situation, you have the right to object at any time to the processing of your personal data based on Art. 6 (1) f DSGVO.
To do this, you must switch off the JavaScript application in your browser. However, we would like to point out that in this case you may not be able to use all functions of this website, such as the interactive map display, to their full extent.

Duration of storage
After completion of the contract, the data will be stored for the duration of the warranty period, then taking legal, in particular tax and commercial, retention periods into account and then deleted after the deadline, unless you have consented to further processing and use.
Rights of the data subject
If the legal requirements are met, you have the following rights under Articles 15 to 20 DSGVO: Right to information, correction, deletion, restriction of processing, data portability.
In addition, according to Art. 21 (1) DSGVO you have a right to object to processing based on Art. 6 (1) f GDPR, as well as processing for the purpose of direct advertising.
