The retraction does not affect the legality of the data processing which has taken place prior to the retraction.
SSL OR TLS ENCRYPTION
For security reasons and to protect the transmission of confidential information such as orders or inquiries which you send to us as the site operator, this site uses SSL or TLS encryption. You can recognise an encrypted connection from the fact that the address line of the browser changes from "http://" to "https://" and from the padlock symbol which appears in your browser line. If SSL or TLS encryption is activated, the data which you send to us cannot be read by third parties.
COOKIES
The web pages use so-called cookies. Cookies do not cause any damage to your computer and do not contain viruses. Cookies are used to improve the user-friendliness, effectiveness and security of our facility. Cookies are small text files which are stored on your computer and saved 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 recognise your browser when you next visit our site.
You can set your browser so that you are notified about the setting of cookies and only allow the acceptance of cookies in isolated cases, only allow the acceptance of cookies in specific cases or stop them altogether, and automatically delete the cookies when the browser is closed. The functionality of this website may be restricted if cookies are deactivated.
Cookies which are needed to carry out the electronic communication procedure or provide certain functions which you require (e.g. shopping cart function) are stored on the basis of Art. 6 Para. 1 lit. f GDPR. The website owner/operator has a justified interest in storing cookies for the technically error-free and optimised provision of its services. If other cookies (e.g cookies for analysing your browsing behaviour) are stored, they will be dealt with separately in this data privacy policy.
SERVER LOG FILES
The provider of the pages automatically collects and stores information in so-called server log files which your browser sends to us automatically. This consists of:
- Browser type and browser version
- Operating system used
- Referrer URL
- Host name of accessing computer
- Time of the server query
- IP address
This data is not combined with data from other sources.
The basis for the data processing is art. 6 para. 1 lit. b GDPR, which allows the processing of data for the purpose of fulfilling a contract or pre-contractual measures.
CONTACT FORM
If you use the contact form to send queries to us, we will store your information from the query form, including the contact data you have entered in it, so that the query can be processed and we can answer any subsequent questions. We do not transfer these data to other parties without your consent.
The data that was entered on the contact form is processed exclusively on the basis of your consent (Art. 6 Para. 1 lit. a GDPR). You can retract this consent at any time. All you need to do is send us an informal email. The retraction does not affect the legality of the data processing procedures which have taken place prior to the retraction.
The data which you entered in the contact form remains with us until you request the deletion thereof, retract your consent for storage of your data, or if the purpose of the data storage becomes inapplicable (after your enquiry has been processed, for example). Compulsory legal regulations?, particularly retention periods?, remain unaffected.
