2) Data Collection When Visiting Our Website

2.1 When you use our website purely for information purposes, i.e. if you do not register or otherwise transmit information to us, we only collect the data that your browser transmits to the server of our website (so-called “server log files”). When you access our website, we collect the following data, which is technically necessary for us to display the website to you:

  • Website visited by us
  • Date and time at the time of access
  • Amount of data sent in bytes
  • Source/reference from which you reached the page
  • Browser used
  • Operating system used
  • IP address used (where applicable: in anonymised form)

The processing is carried out pursuant to Art. 6(1)(f) GDPR on the basis of our legitimate interest in improving the stability and functionality of our website. The data will not be disclosed or used in any other way. However, we reserve the right to subsequently check the server log files if there are specific indications of unlawful use.

2.2 For security reasons and to protect the transmission of personal data and other confidential content (e.g. orders or enquiries to the controller), this website uses SSL or TLS encryption. You can recognise an encrypted connection by the string “https://” and the lock symbol in your browser line.

3) Cookies

In order to make your visit to our website attractive and to enable the use of certain functions, we use cookies, i.e. small text files that are stored on your end device. Some of these cookies are deleted automatically after you close your browser (so-called “session cookies”), while others remain on your end device for a longer period and enable the storage of page settings (so-called “persistent cookies”). In the latter case, you can find the storage duration in the overview of the cookie settings of your web browser.

Insofar as personal data is also processed by individual cookies used by us, the processing is carried out either pursuant to Art. 6(1)(b) GDPR for the performance of a contract, pursuant to Art. 6(1)(a) GDPR in the event of consent given, or pursuant to Art. 6(1)(f) GDPR for the purpose of safeguarding our legitimate interests in ensuring the best possible functionality of the website as well as a customer-friendly and effective design of the visit to our pages.

You can set your browser so that you are informed about the setting of cookies and can decide individually whether to accept them or to exclude the acceptance of cookies for certain cases or in general.

Please note that if you do not accept cookies, the functionality of our website may be restricted.

4) Contacting Us

When you contact us (e.g. via contact form or e-mail), personal data will be processed solely for the purpose of handling and responding to your enquiry and only to the extent necessary for this purpose.

The legal basis for the processing of these data is our legitimate interest in responding to your enquiry pursuant to Art. 6(1)(f) GDPR. If your contact is aimed at the conclusion of a contract, an additional legal basis for the processing is Art. 6(1)(b) GDPR. Your data will be deleted once it can be inferred from the circumstances that the matter in question has been conclusively resolved and provided that there are no statutory retention obligations to the contrary.

5) Data Processing When Opening a Customer Account

Pursuant to Art. 6(1)(b) GDPR, personal data will continue to be collected and processed to the extent necessary if you provide them to us when opening a customer account. Which data are required for opening the account can be seen from the input mask of the corresponding form on our website.

You can delete your customer account at any time by sending a message to the controller’s address stated above. After deletion of your customer account, your data will be deleted, provided that all contracts concluded via it have been fully performed, no statutory retention periods apply and we have no legitimate interest in further storage.

6) Use of Customer Data for Direct Advertising

6.1 Subscription to our e-mail newsletter
If you subscribe to our e-mail newsletter, we will regularly send you information about our offers. The only mandatory information for receiving the newsletter is your e-mail address. The provision of further data is voluntary and is used, if applicable, to address you personally. For the dispatch of the newsletter, we use the so-called double opt-in procedure to ensure that you only receive the newsletter once you have expressly confirmed your consent to receive the newsletter by activating a verification link sent to the e-mail address provided.

By activating the confirmation link, you give us your consent to use your personal data in accordance with Art. 6(1)(a) GDPR. In this context, we store the IP address assigned by your Internet service provider (ISP) at the time of registration as well as the date and time of registration in order to be able to trace a possible misuse of your e-mail address at a later point in time. The data collected by us when you register for the newsletter will be used strictly for the intended purpose.

You can unsubscribe from the newsletter at any time via the link provided in the newsletter or by sending a corresponding message to the controller named at the beginning. After you have unsubscribed, your e-mail address will be deleted from our newsletter distribution list without delay, unless you have expressly consented to further use of your data or we reserve the right to use data in excess thereof, which is permitted by law and about which we inform you in this privacy policy.

6.2 MailChimp
The dispatch of our e-mail newsletters is carried out via the following provider: The Rocket Science Group LLC d/b/a MailChimp, 675 Ponce de Leon Ave NE, Suite 5000, Atlanta, GA 30308, USA.

On the basis of our legitimate interest in effective and user-friendly newsletter marketing, we pass on the data you provide when registering for the newsletter to this provider pursuant to Art. 6(1)(f) GDPR so that it can handle the newsletter dispatch on our behalf.

Subject to your express consent pursuant to Art. 6(1)(a) GDPR, the provider also carries out a statistical evaluation of the success of newsletter campaigns by means of web beacons or tracking pixels in the sent e-mails, which can measure opening rates and specific interactions with the contents of the newsletter. In this context, device information (e.g. time of access, IP address, browser type and operating system) is also collected and evaluated, but not merged with other data sets.

You can revoke your consent to newsletter tracking at any time with effect for the future.

We have concluded a data processing agreement (DPA) with the provider, which protects the data of visitors to our website and prohibits its unauthorised disclosure to third parties.

For data transfers to the USA, the provider is certified under the EU-U.S. Data Privacy Framework, which, on the basis of an adequacy decision by the European Commission, ensures compliance with the European level of data protection.

6.3 E-mail notification of product availability
For items that are temporarily unavailable, you can sign up to receive e-mail notifications of product availability. In this case, we will send you a one-time e-mail notifying you of the availability of the item you have selected.

The only mandatory information for receiving this notification is your e-mail address. The provision of further data is voluntary and may be used to address you personally. For sending the e-mail notification, we use the so-called double opt-in procedure to ensure that you only receive a notification once you have expressly confirmed your corresponding consent by activating a verification link sent to the e-mail address provided.

By activating the confirmation link, you give us your consent to use your personal data in accordance with Art. 6(1)(a) GDPR. In this context, we store the IP address assigned by your Internet service provider (ISP) at the time of registration as well as the date and time of registration in order to be able to trace a possible misuse of your e-mail address at a later point in time. The data we collect when you register for our e-mail notification service for product availability are used strictly for the intended purpose.

You can unsubscribe from the availability notifications at any time by sending a corresponding message to the controller named at the beginning. After you have unsubscribed, your e-mail address will be deleted from our distribution list set up for this purpose without delay, unless you have expressly consented to further use of your data or we reserve the right to use data in excess thereof, which is permitted by law and about which we inform you in this privacy policy.

7) Data Processing for Order Handling

7.1 Transmission of image files for order handling via upload function
On our website, we offer customers the opportunity to commission the personalisation of products by transmitting image files via an upload function. The image motif submitted is used as a template for the personalisation of the selected product.

Via the upload form on the website, the customer can transmit one or more image files directly to us from the storage of the end device used by means of automated, encrypted data transfer. We then collect, store and use the submitted files exclusively for the production of the personalised product in accordance with the respective service description on our website. If the submitted image files are passed on to specific service providers for the production and processing of the order, you will be expressly informed of this in the following paragraphs. No further disclosure will take place. Insofar as the submitted files or the digital motifs contain personal data (in particular images of identifiable persons), all of the processing operations described above are carried out exclusively for the purpose of processing your online order pursuant to Art. 6(1)(b) GDPR.

After final processing of the order, the submitted image files will be automatically and completely deleted.

7.2 Insofar as this is necessary for the performance of the contract for delivery and payment purposes, the personal data collected by us will be passed on to the commissioned transport company and the commissioned credit institution pursuant to Art. 6(1)(b) GDPR.

If, on the basis of a corresponding contract, we owe you updates for goods with digital elements or for digital products, we process the contact data you provided when placing the order in order to inform you personally about updates we owe you within the scope of our statutory information obligations pursuant to Art. 6(1)(c) GDPR. In this context, your contact data will be used strictly for the purpose of notifications about updates owed by us and will be processed by us for this purpose only to the extent necessary for the respective information.

For the processing of your order, we also work together with the following service provider(s), who support us in whole or in part in the performance of contracts concluded. Certain personal data will be transmitted to these service providers in accordance with the following information.

7.3 In order to fulfil our contractual obligations to our customers, we work together with external shipping partners.

Your data are passed on in this case exclusively for the purpose of processing payments with the provider and only to the extent necessary for this purpose.

In order to safeguard our legitimate interest in determining the solvency of our customers, these data are passed on by us to the provider for the purpose of a credit check pursuant to Art. 6(1)(f) GDPR. On the basis of the personal data you provide and other data (such as shopping basket, invoice amount, order history and payment experience), the provider checks whether the payment method you have selected can be granted with regard to payment and/or bad debt risks.

The credit report may contain probability values (so-called score values). Insofar as score values are included in the result of the credit report, they are based on a scientifically recognised mathematical-statistical procedure. Address data are included, among other things, but not exclusively, in the calculation of the score values.

9) Tools and Miscellaneous

Cookie Consent Tool
This website uses a so-called “cookie consent tool” to obtain effective user consent for cookies requiring consent and for cookie-based applications. The “cookie consent tool” is displayed to users in the form of an interactive user interface when they access the page, where consent for certain cookies and/or cookie-based applications can be given by ticking a box. By using the tool, all cookies/services that require consent are only loaded if the respective user gives the corresponding consent by ticking the box. This ensures that such cookies are only set on the respective user’s end device if consent has been given.

The tool sets technically necessary cookies in order to store your cookie preferences. Personal user data are generally not processed in this context.

If, in individual cases, personal data (such as the IP address) are processed for the purpose of storing, assigning or logging cookie settings, this processing is carried out pursuant to Art. 6(1)(f) GDPR on the basis of our legitimate interest in a legally compliant, user-specific and user-friendly consent management for cookies and, thus, in a legally compliant design of our online presence.

Further legal basis for the processing is Art. 6(1)(c) GDPR. As controller, we are subject to the legal obligation to make the use of technically unnecessary cookies dependent on the respective user consent.

Where necessary, we have concluded a data processing agreement (DPA) with the provider, which ensures the protection of the data of visitors to our website and prohibits its unauthorised disclosure to third parties.

Further information on the provider and the setting options of the cookie consent tool can be found directly in the corresponding user interface on our website.

If you exercise your right to object, we will stop processing the data concerned. However, further processing may be reserved if we can demonstrate compelling legitimate grounds for the processing that override your interests, fundamental rights and freedoms, or if the processing serves the establishment, exercise or defense of legal claims.

If your personal data is processed by us for the purpose of direct marketing, you have the right to object at any time to the processing of personal data concerning you for the purpose of such marketing. You may exercise the objection as described above.

If you exercise your right to object, we will stop processing the data concerned for direct marketing purposes.

11) Duration of Storage of Personal Data

The duration of the storage of personal data is determined by the respective legal basis, the purpose of the processing and – if applicable – additionally by the respective statutory retention period (e.g. retention periods under commercial and tax law).

Where personal data are processed on the basis of express consent pursuant to Art. 6(1)(a) GDPR, these data are stored until you withdraw your consent.

Where statutory retention periods apply to data that are processed in the context of legal or quasi-legal obligations on the basis of Art. 6(1)(b) GDPR, these data are routinely deleted after expiry of the retention periods, provided that they are no longer required for the performance of the contract or the initiation of a contract and/or we no longer have a legitimate interest in further storage.

Where personal data are processed on the basis of Art. 6(1)(f) GDPR, these data are stored until you exercise your right to object pursuant to Art. 21(1) GDPR, unless we can demonstrate compelling legitimate grounds for the processing which override your interests, rights and freedoms, or the processing serves the establishment, exercise or defence of legal claims.

Where personal data are processed for direct marketing purposes on the basis of Art. 6(1)(f) GDPR, these data are stored until you exercise your right to object pursuant to Art. 21(2) GDPR.
