Privacy policy

Thank you for your interest in our website. Both your private sphere and your data privacy are of the utmost important to us. In the following we will inform you in detail how your personal data is processed.

Assessment, processing and usage of personal data

You can always use our website without giving any detailed information concerning your identity. We do only process general access data without any specific reference to the individual person. This means that we might record data such as the website from which you were redirected to our online shop or the name of the requested file on our server. The acquired data is processed for purposes of service improvement only. The data is not linked to information concerning you identity.

Personal data is only acquired when you as a customer share it with us voluntarily. This is the case when you place an order or register for a personal user account on our website. Without your explicit consent, we will never use your personal details for any other purposes than the registration and processing of your orders. After the final and successful processing of your orders, access to your personal data is automatically inactivated. Unless you have explicitly entitled us to keep your personal details stored for future use, your data is automatically deleted following the expiration of the statutory retention period.

Cookies

Several functions of our website rely on cookies to make our online store more attractive and convenient. Cookies are small text files that are resided on your computer. Most of our cookies are deleted immediately and automatically from your hard disk upon closing your web browser session (so called 'session cookies'). A few cookies remain on your hard disk and enable our website to recognize your computer next time you visit our online shop (permanent cookies). Permanent cookies allow our website to welcome you with your individual user name. They make it unnecessary to enter your user name and password anew every time you visit our website. Permanent cookies are also useful to fill in the personal details when you place another order. Our partner companies are not allowed to set cookies on your computer or assess, process and use any personal data.

Confidentiality and the sharing of information

Your personal data will never be shared with anyone who is not entitled to use them. We will not share personal information with any external companies (e.g. market research, promotion etc.).
However, we must give your address details to the company that is responsible for the shipping of your orders (as far as deliveries are concerned). We must also share your data with the respective banking institution to process payment (e.g. for refunds etc.).
In any case we will only share the amount of information that is indispensable for the proper processing of your orders.

Right to information

According to the German 'Federal Data Protection Act' you are entitled to be informed about what personal data is stored in our systems (without being charged for this service). In addition to this you are entitled by law to correct, inactivate or delete all of your personal data from our systems.

Data security

When placing orders in our shop your personal details are automatically encrypted using the Secure Socket Layer (SSL) Protocol. The protocol establishes a secure connection and prevents data abuse. This makes your shopping experience in our shop totally safe and reliable. Credit card data is never recorded in our systems but is directly processed by our payment service provider. Through technical and organisational means we secure our website and all other systems against loss, deletion, access, change or distribution of your personal data by third parties.
Access to your personal user account is only granted after the login procedure has been completed successfully. Please note that you should never share your personal data or user data (such as user name and password) with any other person. Please make sure to close your web browser after having completed your order process. Please be particularly cautious when using computers in public areas (such as internet cafés) or when you share your computer with someone else.

Contact for privacy and security issues

Should you have any questions regarding the assessment, processing and usage of personal data, or should you want to be informed about the storage of your personal data (to correct, inactivate or delete it), or should you want to cancel any kind of consent that you have previously given, please feel free to contact:
