General information

The operators of this website take the protection of your personal data very seriously. We treat your personal data confidentially and in accordance with the statutory data protection regulations and this privacy policy.

The use of our website is generally possible without providing personal data. Insofar as personal data (e.g., name, address, or email addresses) is collected on our site, this is always done on a voluntary basis, where possible. This data will not be passed on to third parties without your explicit consent.

Please note that data transmission over the internet (e.g., when communicating via email) can have security vulnerabilities. Complete protection of data against access by third parties is not possible.

Who is responsible for data collection on this website?

Data processing on this website is carried out by the website operator. Their contact details can be found in the section “Information on the responsible body” in this privacy policy.

How do we collect your data?

Your data is collected, firstly, because you provide it to us. This could include, for example, data that you enter into a contact form.

Other data is collected automatically or with your consent by our IT systems when you visit the website. This is primarily technical data (e.g., internet browser, operating system, or time of page access). This data is collected automatically as soon as you access this website.

Wofür nutzen wir Ihre Daten?

Some data is collected to ensure the website functions correctly. Other data may be used to analyze your user behavior. If contracts can be concluded or initiated via the website, the transmitted data will also be processed for contract offers, orders, or other inquiries.

You have the right to obtain information free of charge at any time regarding the origin, recipients, and purpose of your stored personal data. You also have the right to request the correction or deletion of this data. If you have given your consent to data processing, you can revoke this consent at any time for the future. Furthermore, you have the right, under certain circumstances, to request the restriction of the processing of your personal data. You also have the right to lodge a complaint with the competent supervisory authority.

Hosting

We host the content of our website with DomainFactory GmbH, c/o WeWork, Neuturmstraße 5, 80331 Munich (hereinafter referred to as DomainFactory). When you visit our website, DomainFactory collects various log files, including your IP address.

For details, please refer to DomainFactory’s privacy policy: https://www.df.eu/de/datenschutz/.

If corresponding consent has been requested, processing is carried out exclusively on the basis of Article 6(1)(a) GDPR and Section 25(1) TDDDG, insofar as the consent includes the storage of cookies or access to information on the user’s device (e.g., for device fingerprinting) within the meaning of the TDDDG. Consent can be withdrawn at any time.

Order processing

We have concluded a data processing agreement (DPA) for the use of the aforementioned service. This is a legally required contract under data protection law, which ensures that the service provider processes the personal data of our website visitors only according to our instructions and in compliance with the GDPR.

Hinweis zur verantwortlichen Stelle

The responsible body for data processing on this website is:

Sala Lieber, Kanalstrasse 25, 41460 Neuss
Telefon: +49 160 95262158
E-Mail: salalieber@googlemail.com

The responsible body for data processing on this website is:

Speicherdauer

Unless a more specific retention period is stated within this privacy policy, your personal data will remain with us until the purpose for processing the data no longer applies. If you submit a legitimate request for erasure or withdraw your consent to data processing, your data will be deleted, provided we have no other legally permissible grounds for storing your personal data (e.g., tax or commercial law retention periods); in the latter case, the data will be deleted once these grounds cease to apply.

General information on the legal basis for data processing on this website

If you have consented to data processing, we process your personal data on the basis of Article 6(1)(a) GDPR or Article 9(2)(a) GDPR if special categories of data pursuant to Article 9(1) GDPR are processed. In the case of explicit consent to the transfer of personal data to third countries, data processing also takes place on the basis of Article 49(1)(a) GDPR. If you have consented to the storage of cookies or to access to information on your device (e.g., via device fingerprinting), data processing additionally takes place on the basis of Section 25(1) of the German Telemedia Act (TMG). You can withdraw your consent at any time. If your data is required for the performance of a contract or for taking steps prior to entering into a contract, we process your data on the basis of Article 6(1)(b) GDPR. Furthermore, we process your data if it is necessary for compliance with a legal obligation, on the basis of Article 6(1)(c) GDPR. Data processing may also be based on our legitimate interest pursuant to Art. 6 para. 1 lit. f GDPR. Information on the applicable legal bases in each individual case is provided in the following paragraphs of this privacy policy.

Note regarding data transfers to third countries that do not offer adequate data protection and transfers to US companies that are not DPF-certified.

We use, among other things, tools from companies based in third countries with inadequate data protection laws, as well as US tools whose providers are not certified under the EU-US Data Privacy Framework (DPF). When these tools are active, your personal data may be transferred to and processed in these countries. Please note that a level of data protection comparable to that of the EU cannot be guaranteed in third countries with inadequate data protection laws.

Please note that the USA, as a safe third country, generally offers a level of data protection comparable to that of the EU. Data transfers to the USA are therefore permitted if the recipient is certified under the EU-US Data Privacy Framework (DPF) or has appropriate additional safeguards in place. Information on transfers to third countries, including data recipients, can be found in this privacy policy.

Empfänger von personenbezogenen Daten

As part of our business activities, we collaborate with various external parties. This sometimes requires the transfer of personal data to these external parties. We only disclose personal data to external parties if this is necessary for the performance of a contract, if we are legally obligated to do so (e.g., disclosure of data to tax authorities), if we have a legitimate interest in the disclosure pursuant to Article 6(1)(f) GDPR, or if another legal basis permits the data transfer. When using data processors, we only transfer our customers’ personal data on the basis of a valid data processing agreement. In the case of joint processing, a joint processing agreement is concluded.

Revocation of your consent to data processing

Many data processing operations are only possible with your explicit consent. You can revoke your consent at any time. The legality of data processing carried out before the revocation remains unaffected by the revocation.

Right to object to data processing in special cases and to direct marketing (Art. 21 GDPR)

If data processing is based on Article 6(1)(e) or (f) of the GDPR, you have the right to object, on grounds relating to your particular situation, at any time to processing of personal data concerning you; this also applies to profiling based on these provisions. The specific legal basis for each processing operation can be found in this privacy policy. If you object, we will no longer process your personal data unless we can demonstrate compelling legitimate grounds for the processing which override your interests, rights and freedoms, or the processing serves the purpose of establishing, exercising or defending legal claims (objection pursuant to Article 21(1) GDPR). If your personal data is processed for direct marketing purposes, you have the right to object at any time to the processing of personal data concerning you for such marketing. This also applies to profiling insofar as it is related to such direct marketing. If you object, your personal data will subsequently no longer be used for direct marketing purposes (objection pursuant to Article 21(2) GDPR).

 

Right to lodge a complaint with the competent supervisory authority

In the event of violations 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, their place of work, or the place of the alleged infringement. This right to lodge a complaint is without prejudice to any other administrative or judicial remedy.

Right to data portability

You have the right to receive the data that we process automatically based on your consent or in fulfillment of a contract, either for yourself or for a third party, in a commonly used, machine-readable format. If you request the direct transfer of the data to another controller, this will only be done if technically feasible.

Information, correction and deletionAuskunft, Berichtigung und Löschung

Under applicable law, you have the right to request information, free of charge, about your stored personal data, its origin and recipients, and the purpose of the data processing, as well as the right to rectification or erasure of this data. You can contact us at any time with regard to this and any other questions concerning personal data.

 

Right to restriction of processingRecht auf Einschränkung der Verarbeitung

You have the right to request the restriction of the processing of your personal data. You can contact us at any time to do so. The right to restrict processing exists in the following cases:

If you dispute the accuracy of your personal data stored with us, we generally need time to verify this. For the duration of the verification process, you have the right to request the restriction of the processing of your personal data.

– If the processing of your personal data was/is unlawful, you can request the restriction of data processing instead of deletion.

– If we no longer need your personal data, but you require it for the establishment, exercise or defense of legal claims, you have the right to request restriction of processing of your personal data instead of erasure.

– If you have objected to processing pursuant to Article 21(1) GDPR, a balancing of interests between your interests and ours must be carried out. Until it is determined whose interests prevail, you have the right to request the restriction of the processing of your personal data.

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

SSL or TLS encryption

This site uses SSL/TLS encryption for security reasons and to protect the transmission of confidential information, such as orders or inquiries that you send to us as the site operator. You can recognize an encrypted connection by the fact that the browser’s address bar changes from “http://” to “https://” and by the lock symbol in your browser’s address bar.

When SSL or TLS encryption is enabled, the data you send to us cannot be read by third parties.

Objection to advertising emails

The use of contact details published as part of the legal notice for sending unsolicited advertising and informational materials is hereby prohibited. The operators of these pages expressly reserve the right to take legal action in the event of unsolicited advertising, such as spam emails.

Persistent cookies remain stored on your device until you delete them yourself or until they are automatically deleted by your web browser.

Cookies can originate from us (first-party cookies) or from third-party companies (so-called third-party cookies). Third-party cookies enable the integration of certain services from third-party companies within websites (e.g., cookies for processing payment services).

Cookies serve various functions. Many cookies are technically necessary, as certain website functions would not work without them (e.g., the shopping cart function or the display of videos). Other cookies can be used to analyze user behavior or for advertising purposes.

Cookies that are necessary for carrying out electronic communication, for providing certain functions you have requested (e.g., for the shopping cart function), or for optimizing the website (e.g., cookies for measuring website traffic) (necessary cookies) are stored on the basis of Article 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 flawless and optimized provision of its services. If consent to the storage of cookies and similar recognition technologies has been requested, processing is carried out exclusively on the basis of this consent (Article 6(1)(a) GDPR and Section 25(1) TDDDG); this consent can be revoked at any time.

You can configure your browser to notify you when cookies are set and to allow cookies only in individual cases, to accept cookies in certain cases or to generally reject them, and to automatically delete cookies when you close your browser. Disabling cookies may limit the functionality of this website.

You can find information about which cookies and services are used on this website in this privacy policy.

Inquiries via email, telephone or fax

When you contact us by email, telephone, or fax, your inquiry, including all resulting personal data (name, inquiry), will be stored and processed by us for the purpose of handling your request. We will not share this data without your consent.

The processing of this data is based on Article 6(1)(b) GDPR if your request is related to the performance of a contract or is necessary for taking steps prior to entering into a contract. In all other cases, processing is based on our legitimate interest in the effective handling of inquiries addressed to us (Article 6(1)(f) GDPR) or on your consent (Article 6(1)(a) GDPR), if such consent has been obtained; you may withdraw your consent at any time.

The data you send us via contact requests will remain with us until you request its deletion, revoke your consent to its storage, or the purpose for data storage no longer applies (e.g., after your request has been processed). Mandatory legal provisions – in particular, statutory retention periods – remain unaffected.

Google Analytics (with anonymization function)

The data controller has integrated the Google Analytics component (with anonymization function) on this website. Google Analytics is a web analytics service. Web analytics involves the collection, gathering, and analysis of data about the behavior of website visitors. A web analytics service records, among other things, data about which website a data subject came from (known as the referrer), which subpages of the website were accessed, and how often and for how long a subpage was viewed. Web analytics is primarily used to optimize a website and to perform cost-benefit analyses of online advertising.
The operator of the Google Analytics component is Google Ireland Limited, Gordon House, Barrow Street, Dublin, D04 E5W5, Ireland.
The data controller uses the extension “_gat._anonymizeIp” for web analytics via Google Analytics. With this add-on, Google shortens and anonymizes the IP address of the data subject’s internet connection when our website is accessed from a member state of the European Union or from another contracting state of the Agreement on the European Economic Area.
The purpose of the Google Analytics component is to analyze visitor traffic on our website. Google uses the data and information obtained, among other things, to evaluate the use of our website, to compile online reports for us that show the activities on our website, and to provide other services related to the use of our website.
Google Analytics places a cookie on the data subject’s information technology system. Cookies were explained above. By setting the cookie, Google is enabled to analyze the use of our website. Each time one of the individual pages of this website, which is operated by the data controller and on which a Google Analytics component has been integrated, is accessed, the respective Google Analytics component automatically prompts the internet browser on the data subject’s information technology system to transmit data to Google for the purpose of online analysis. As part of this technical process, Google receives personal data, such as the data subject’s IP address, which Google uses, among other things, to track the origin of visitors and clicks and subsequently to enable commission billing.
The cookie stores personal information, such as the access time, the location from which access originated, and the frequency of the data subject’s visits to our website. With each visit to our website, this personal data, including the IP address of the internet connection used by the data subject, is transmitted to Google in the United States of America. This personal data is stored by Google in the United States of America.
Content Google may share this personal data, collected via technical means, with third parties.
As described above, the data subject can prevent the setting of cookies by our website at any time by adjusting the settings of their web browser accordingly, thus permanently objecting to the setting of cookies. Such a browser setting would also prevent Google from placing a cookie on the data subject’s information technology system. Furthermore, a cookie already set by Google Analytics can be deleted at any time via the web browser or other software programs.
The data subject also has the option to object to and prevent the collection and processing of data generated by Google Analytics relating to the use of this website. To do this, the data subject must download and install a browser add-on from the following link: https://tools.google.com/dlpage/gaoptout. This browser add-on uses JavaScript to inform Google Analytics that no data or information about website visits may be transmitted to Google Analytics. Installing the browser add-on is interpreted by Google as an objection to data collection. If the data processing system of the data subject is subsequently deleted, formatted, or reinstalled, the data subject must reinstall the browser add-on to deactivate Google Analytics. If the browser add-on is uninstalled or deactivated by the data subject or another person within their sphere of influence, it can be reinstalled or reactivated.
Further information and Google’s applicable privacy policy can be found at https://www.google.de/intl/de/policies/privacy/ and at http://www.google.com/analytics/terms/de.html. Google Analytics is explained in more detail at this link: https://www.google.com/intl/de_de/analytics/.

The provider of this website has no influence on this data transfer. When Google Maps is activated, Google may use Google Fonts for the purpose of consistent font display. When you access Google Maps, your browser loads the required web fonts into its browser cache to display texts and fonts correctly.

The use of Google Maps is in our legitimate interest in presenting our online services in an appealing manner and ensuring that the locations we specify on the website are easy to find. This constitutes a legitimate interest within the meaning of Article 6(1)(f) GDPR. If consent has been requested, processing is carried out exclusively on the basis of Article 6(1)(a) GDPR and Section 25(1) of the German Telemedia Act (TMG), insofar as the consent includes the storage of cookies or access to information on the user’s device (e.g., device fingerprinting) within the meaning of the TDDG. Consent can be withdrawn at any time.

Data transfers to the USA are based on the EU Commission’s Standard Contractual Clauses. Details can be found here:

Apple Pay as a payment method

If you choose Apple Pay as your payment method, provided by Apple Distribution International (Apple), Hollyhill Industrial Estate, Hollyhill, Cork, Ireland, payment processing is handled via the Apple Pay function on your iOS, watchOS, or macOS device by charging a payment card stored with Apple Pay. Apple Pay now has its operating functions, including hardware and software, but it does not yet process any transactions. You can also use the following codes: Face ID or Touch ID – functions that you can use at any time.

For payment processing purposes, the information you provide during the ordering process, along with your order details, will be transmitted to Apple in encrypted form. Apple then re-encrypts this data with a developer-specific key before transmitting it to the payment service provider of the payment card stored in Apple Pay. This encryption ensures that only the website where the purchase was made can access the payment information. After the payment is received, Apple sends your device account number and a transaction-specific, dynamic security code to the originating website to confirm the successful payment.

If personal data is processed during the described transfers, the processing is carried out exclusively for the purpose of payment processing in accordance with Art. 6 para. 1 lit. b GDPR.

Apple retains anonymized transaction data, including the approximate purchase amount, date, and time, as well as whether the transaction was successful. Anonymization completely prevents any personal identification. Apple is an anonymous user of the terms of Apple Pay and other Apple products and services.

When you use Apple Pay on your iPhone or Apple Watch to complete a purchase you made through Safari on your Mac, your Mac and the authorizing device communicate over an encrypted channel on Apple’s servers. Apple does not process or store any of this information in a format that can identify you personally. You can disable the ability to use Apple Pay on your Mac in your iPhone’s settings. Go to “Wallet & Apple Pay” and turn off “Allow Payments on Mac.”

In all transactions via Google Pay, Google acts solely as an intermediary for processing the payment. The transaction is executed exclusively between the user and the originating website by debiting the payment method stored in Google Pay.

Use of Google Ads conversion tracking

This website uses the online advertising program “Google Ads” and, within the framework of Google Ads, the conversion tracking service of Google Ireland Limited, Gordon House, 4 Barrow St, Dublin, D04 E5W5, Ireland (“Google”). We use Google Ads to draw attention to our attractive offers on external websites using advertising materials (so-called Google AdWords). Based on the data from the advertising campaigns, we can determine the success of individual advertising measures. Our aim is to show you advertising that is relevant to you, to make our website more interesting for you, and to ensure a fair calculation of the advertising costs incurred.

The conversion tracking cookie is set when a user clicks on a Google ad. Cookies are small text files that are stored on your device. These cookies typically expire after 30 days and are not used for personal identification. If the user visits certain pages of this website and the cookie has not yet expired, Google and we can recognize that the user clicked on the ad and was redirected to this page. Each Google Ads customer receives a different cookie. Therefore, cookies cannot be tracked across the websites of different Google Ads customers. The information obtained using the conversion cookie is used to generate conversion statistics for Google Ads customers who have opted for conversion tracking. These customers learn the total number of users who clicked on their ad and were redirected to a page with a conversion tracking tag. However, they do not receive any information that can personally identify users. If you do not wish to participate in tracking, you can block this by disabling the Google Conversion Tracking cookie in your internet browser under “User settings.” You will then not be included in the conversion tracking statistics. We use Google Ads based on our legitimate interest in targeted advertising pursuant to Art. 6 para. 1 lit. f GDPR. The use of Google Ads may also involve the transfer of personal data to the servers of Google LLC in the USA.

You can find further information about Google’s privacy policy at the following web address: https://www.google.de/policies/privacy/

You can permanently opt out of Google Ads conversion tracking by downloading and installing the browser plug-in available from Google at the following link:

Meta-, Custom Audiences and Meta-Marketing Services

We use the Meta-Pixel service on our websites, a service for enabling personalized advertising provided by Meta Platforms Ireland Ltd., 4 Grand Canal Square, Grand Canal Harbour, Dublin 2, Ireland (hereinafter: “Meta”). Meta acts as a third party in this service relationship.

Scope of processing

If you have consented to the use of Meta-Pixel and Custom Audiences, a connection to Meta’s servers will be established when you visit our website to load the script required for the Meta-Pixel. This process transmits your IP address, the address of the visited page, and information about your browser and operating system. At the time of Meta-Pixel initialization, cookies containing unique identifiers are stored, allowing your browser to be recognized. This cookie is only valid for our website and cannot be used to track your activity on third-party websites. Subsequently, each time you access a page on our website that uses Meta-Pixel, the following data will be transmitted to and stored on a Meta server in the USA:

– Address of the page from which you accessed a page on our website
– Address of the page accessed
– Date and time of access
– Browser and operating system
– IP address
– The pixel ID assigned to our website by Meta
– Identifier from the Meta cookie
– “Button click data” (information about buttons clicked by the user and the page to which the user was redirected)

The pixel we use is not used in the “extended user matching” variant, meaning that we do not transfer any further personal data to Meta.

If you have a Meta user account and a Meta cookie with a user ID is stored in your browser, Meta can associate the data we transmit to you with your Meta user account and thus with you personally. Regardless of whether you have a user account, Meta creates interest profiles based on the collected data, which serve as the basis for creating target groups (“Custom Audiences”). Meta can add you to such a target group and display personalized advertisements when you visit pages belonging to Meta. For us, the visitor and target group data is only available in the form of anonymized statistics.

Legal basis for processing

The legal basis for the processing is Article 6(1)(a) GDPR.

Zweck der Verarbeitung

We use the Meta Pixel to target our ads to specific audiences on Meta’s website. By assigning users to relevant target groups, Meta allows us to use our advertising effectively. Using the Meta Pixel ensures that our ads on Meta’s website align with a user’s potential interests and are not perceived as intrusive.

Data transfer to third countries

If Meta also processes your data in third countries, Meta states that this is done either on the basis of adequacy decisions of the EU Commission within the meaning of Art. 45 para. 1 GDPR or on the basis of standard contractual clauses with the recipient, which oblige the recipient to guarantee European data protection law also in the third country and thus provide a suitable guarantee for the protection of personal data within the meaning of Art. 46 para. 2 lit. c GDPR.

Storage duration

Individuals added to a custom audience will be removed from the audience after 180 days, unless they have rejoined it through page visits in the meantime. We do not store any personal data. The storage of personal data is otherwise governed by Meta’s privacy policy.

Page visits

You can view the status of your consent via our consent manager CookieYes in the bottom left corner of the website and revoke your consent at any time. Revoking your consent does not affect the lawfulness of the processing carried out before the revocation. Your decision regarding the use of the service is stored in the cookie. It only applies to this browser and must be renewed after the stated validity period expires.

Registered users of the Facebook platform can deactivate the Custom Audiences feature on the page https://www.facebook.com/settings?tab=ads. Further settings options for registered users are explained at https://www.facebook.com/help/568137493302217.
