We also store IP addresses if we have a concrete suspicion of a criminal offence in connection with the use of our website.
3.3 Cookies
We use so-called session cookies to optimize our website. A session cookie is a small text file that is sent by the respective servers when you visit a website and is temporarily stored on your hard drive. This file as such contains a so-called session ID with which various requests from your browser can be assigned to the shared session. This enables your computer to be recognised when you return to our website. They serve, for example, to enable you to use the shopping basket function over several pages.
These cookies are stored on your hard drive and delete themselves after the specified time. Their lifetime is between 1 month and 10 years. This enables us to present our offer to you in a more user-friendly, effective and secure manner and, for example, to display information on the site that is specially tailored to your interests.
The following data and information are stored in the cookies:
Log-in information
Language settings
search terms entered
Information about the number of times our website is called up and the use of individual functions of our Internet presence.

Your name, IP address or similar data that would allow the cookie to be assigned to you will not be placed in the cookie. On the basis of cookie technology, we only receive pseudonymised information, for example about which pages of our shop were visited, which products were viewed, etc.
As far as technically necessary cookies are concerned, we have a legitimate interest in the use of cookies according to Art 6 Paragraph 1 S.
1 f) DSGVO in presenting you with a functioning website.
If the cookies are not technically necessary (e.g. cookies for the purpose of analysis or tracking), we only store the cookie on your terminal device on the basis of your prior consent via "opt-in". We will then explain the respective purpose of the storage of the cookie to you separately in the context of the respective service that stores the cookie on your terminal device.
You can withdraw your consent to the storage of cookies at any time in the cookie settings.
You can also set your browser so that you are informed in advance about the setting of cookies and can decide in each individual case whether you want to exclude the acceptance of cookies for certain cases or in general, or whether cookies should be prevented completely. However, this may limit the functionality of the website.

We use Google Analytics, a web analytics service provided by Google Ireland Limited Gordon House, Barrow Street Dublin 4 Ireland ("Google"). Google Analytics uses "cookies", which are text files placed on your computer, to help the website analyze how users use the site. The information generated by the cookie about the use of the website by the visitor is usually transferred to a Google server in the USA and stored there.

Only in exceptional cases will the full IP address be transferred to a Google server in the USA and shortened there. On our behalf, Google will use this information to evaluate your use of the website, to compile reports on the website activities and to provide us with further services related to the use of the website and the Internet.

4 Facebook pixels
On our website we use the so-called "Facebook pixel" of the provider Facebook Ireland Ltd, 4 Grand Canal Square, Grand Canal Harbour, Dublin 2, Ireland,
Our legitimate interest pursuant to Art. 6 para. 1 sentence 1 f) DSGVO is to know how often and in what way our website is used.
Facebook operates server locations in the USA and is certified under the EU-US Privacy Shield. A current certificate can be viewed here. Based on this agreement between the USA and the European Commission, the latter has determined an adequate level of data protection for companies certified under the Privacy Shield.
The Facebook pixel enables us to define the target groups for the display of advertisements by Facebook based on the visitors of the website. As a result, Facebook Ads are only played to Facebook users who have an interest in our site or other specific interests (determined by the sites visited). This information is submitted by us to Facebook ("Custom Audiences").
Furthermore, the Facebook pixel allows us to check the effectiveness of our Facebook Ads by tracking whether users have visited our website after clicking on our Facebook Ads ("conversion").
The processing of your personal data by Facebook takes place within the framework of the Facebook data protection guidelines. These can be found at https://www.facebook.com/policy.php. Further information on the Facebook pixel can be found at https://www.facebook.com/business/help/651294705016616.

5 Storage duration
Unless specifically stated, we only store personal data for as long as it is necessary to fulfil the intended purposes.
In some cases, the law provides for the retention of personal data, for example in tax or commercial law. In these cases, we will only continue to store the data for these legal purposes, but will not process it in any other way and delete it after the legal retention period has expired.

7 Data security
We make every effort to ensure the security of your data within the framework of the applicable data protection laws and technical possibilities.
Your personal data will be transmitted encrypted. This applies to your orders and also to the customer login. We use the SSL (Secure Socket Layer) coding system, but we would like to point out that data transmission on the Internet (e.g. when communicating by e-mail) can have security gaps. A complete protection of data against access by third parties is not possible.
To protect your data, we maintain technical and organisational security measures in accordance with Art. 32 DSGVO, which we continually adapt to the state of the art.
Furthermore, we do not guarantee that our offer is available at certain times; disturbances, interruptions or failures cannot be excluded. The servers used by us are regularly and carefully backed up.
8 Transfer of data to third parties, no data transfer to non-EU countries
As a matter of principle, we only use your personal data within our company.
If and to the extent that we involve third parties in the fulfilment of contracts (e.g. logistics service providers), they will only receive personal data to the extent that the transmission is necessary for the corresponding service.
Certain parts of the data processing have been outsourced by us to contract processors ("contract processing"). In doing so, we contractually oblige processors to use personal data only in accordance with the requirements of the data protection laws and to ensure the protection of the rights of the data subject.
The legal domicile of the service provider entrusted by us with the order data processing is located in a country outside the European Union, for which the European Commission has established an adequate level of data protection by decision. Furthermore, this service provider also maintains server locations in the USA and is certified under the EU-US Privacy Shield. A current certificate can be viewed here. On the basis of this agreement between the USA and the European Commission, the latter has also determined an appropriate level of data protection for companies certified under the Privacy Shield.
