Thank you for your interest in our online shop. Protecting your privacy is very important to us. Below we inform you in detail about the handling of your data.

Access data and hosting

These access data are evaluated exclusively for the purpose of ensuring trouble-free operation of the site and improving our offer. This serves to safeguard our legitimate interests, which predominate in the context of a balance of interests, in a correct presentation of our offer. All access data will be deleted no later than seven days after the end of your visit to the site.

Depending on which payment service provider you select in the ordering process, we will forward the payment data collected for this to the credit institution commissioned with the payment and, if applicable, the payment service provider commissioned by us or the selected payment service provider to process payments. Some of the selected payment service providers also collect this data themselves if you create an account there. In this case, you must log in to the payment service provider with your access data during the ordering process. In this respect, the data protection declaration of the respective payment service provider applies.

Data transfer to shipping service providers
If you have given us your express consent to this during or after your order, we will pass your email address on to the selected shipping service provider so that it can contact you prior to delivery for the purpose of delivery notification or coordination.

The consent can be revoked at any time by sending a message to the contact option described below or directly to the shipping service provider at the contact address listed below.

Use of data in payment processing

If you choose the payment method "purchase on account" of the PayPal service "BillSAFE" (www.billsafe.de), you will be asked in the ordering process to transmit the data required for processing the payment and an identity and credit check to PayPal to consent. If you give your consent, this data will be transmitted to PayPal. For the purpose of its own identity and credit check, PayPal or partner companies commissioned by PayPal transmit data to credit reporting agencies and receive information from them and, if applicable, creditworthiness information on the basis of mathematical-statistical methods, the calculation of which includes address data, among other things. Detailed information on this and the credit agencies used can be found in PayPal's data protection information.
The information received about the statistical probability of a payment default is used by Paypal for a balanced decision on the establishment, implementation or termination of the contractual relationship.
You can withdraw your consent to PayPal at any time. However, PayPal may still be entitled to process, use and transmit your personal data if this is necessary for contractual payment processing or is legally required or is ordered by a court or an authority.
