Privacy policy

The operators of this website take the protection of your personal data very seriously. We handle your personal data confidentially and in accordance with legal data protection regulations as well as this privacy policy.

Using our website is generally possible without providing personal data. Whenever personal data (e.g., name, address, or email addresses) is collected on our pages, it is done on a voluntary basis wherever possible. This data will not be shared with third parties without your explicit consent.

We would like to point out that data transmission over the Internet (e.g., when communicating via email) may have security vulnerabilities. Complete protection of data from third-party access is not possible.

Collection of Personal Data

In general, we only collect personal data when it is necessary to provide a specific service.

You can visit our website without providing any personal information. We only store access data that does not relate to any individual, such as the name of your internet service provider, the page from which you visited us, or the name of the requested file. This data is used solely to improve our services and does not allow any conclusions about your identity.

Personal data that can identify the user, such as name, address, postal address, shipping address, telephone number, or email address, is only collected on our website when you provide it voluntarily—for example, when placing an order, participating in a contest, uploading a photo, or subscribing to our newsletter. This also applies when you use the contact function on the website or contact us in another way, such as by email. In the case of ordering goods, the data you provide is used exclusively to fulfill and process your order, without any separate consent from you.

Customer data is only used for sending a newsletter or mailings after obtaining explicit prior consent from the customer. This consent can be revoked at any time without stating reasons, with effect for the future.

Transfer of Personal Data to Third Parties

Your data will not be shared with third parties unless we are legally obliged (e.g., upon request by a law enforcement agency) or entitled to do so (e.g., as part of data processing services), or you have consented to the sharing of your data with third parties.

Data is shared with third parties in particular when necessary for fulfilling and processing a contract. These third parties are also obliged to protect your data and use it only for the exact purpose required. Furthermore, they are required to handle the data in accordance with this privacy policy and applicable legal regulations.

This website uses cookies in part. Cookies do not harm your computer and do not contain viruses. Cookies are used to make our services more user-friendly, effective, and secure. Cookies are small text files that are stored on your computer by your browser.

Most of the cookies we use are so-called "session cookies." They are automatically deleted after your visit. Other cookies remain stored on your device until you delete them. These cookies allow us to recognize your browser the next time you visit.

You can configure your browser to inform you about the setting of cookies, to allow cookies only in individual cases, to exclude the acceptance of cookies for certain cases or in general, and to enable the automatic deletion of cookies when closing the browser. If cookies are deactivated, the functionality of this website may be limited.

Server Log Files

The provider of this website automatically collects and stores information in so-called server log files, which your browser automatically transmits to us. These are:

Browser type and version
Operating system used

Time of the server request

This data cannot be assigned to specific individuals. This data will not be combined with other data sources. However, we reserve the right to retrospectively check this data if we become aware of specific indications of illegal use.

SSL Encryption

This website uses SSL encryption for security reasons and to protect the transmission of confidential content, such as inquiries you send to us as the site operator. You can recognize an encrypted connection by the fact that the browser's address line changes from "http://" to "https://" and a lock icon appears in your browser line.

If SSL encryption is activated, the data you transmit to us cannot be read by third parties.

If you send us inquiries via the contact form, your information from the form, including the contact details you provide, will be stored by us for the purpose of processing the inquiry and for possible follow-up questions. This data will not be passed on without your consent.

If you wish to receive the newsletter offered on the website, we require your email address and information that allows us to verify that you are the owner of the provided email address. No further data is collected. We use this data exclusively to send the requested information and do not pass it on to third parties.

You can revoke your consent to the storage of data, the email address, and its use for sending the newsletter at any time, for example via the "unsubscribe" link in the newsletter.

Right to Information, Deletion, Blocking

You have the right at any time to free information about your stored personal data, its origin and recipients, and the purpose of the data processing, as well as a right to correct, block, or delete this data. For this and other questions regarding personal data, you can contact us at any time at the address provided in the legal notice.

Objection to Promotional Emails

Contract Data Processing

We have entered into a contract for data processing with Google and fully implement the strict requirements of the German data protection authorities when using Google Analytics.

IP Anonymization

We use the "IP anonymization" feature on this website. This means that your IP address is truncated by Google within the European Union or other signatory states of the Agreement on the European Economic Area before being sent to the USA. Only in exceptional cases is the full IP address sent to a Google server in the USA and truncated there.

Google uses this information on behalf of the operator of this website to evaluate your use of the website, compile reports on website activity, and provide other services related to website and internet usage to the website operator. The IP address transmitted by your browser as part of Google Analytics will not be merged with other data held by Google.

This website uses web fonts provided by Google for the uniform display of fonts. When you call up a page, your browser loads the required web fonts into your browser cache to display texts and fonts correctly. If your browser does not support web fonts, a standard font from your computer is used.

As an AdWords customer, we use Google Conversion Tracking, a web analytics service of Google Inc. (1600 Amphitheatre Parkway, Mountain View, CA 94043, USA; "Google"). When you click on a Google ad that takes you to our website, Google sets a cookie on your computer or mobile device ("Conversion Cookie"). These cookies expire after 30 days and do not personally identify you. If the cookie has not yet expired, we and Google can recognize that someone clicked on the ad and was redirected to our site. Each AdWords customer receives a different cookie.

Cookies cannot be tracked across AdWords customer websites. The information obtained from the conversion cookie is used to compile conversion statistics for AdWords customers who have opted for conversion tracking. AdWords customers receive 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 personally identifies users.
