Customer-Initiated Contact by Email

If you contact us on your own initiative by email, we collect your personal data (name, email address, message text) only to the extent provided by you. Data processing is carried out for the purpose of handling and responding to your contact request. If contact is made for the purpose of carrying out pre-contractual measures (e.g., advice on purchase interest, preparing an offer) or concerns an existing contract, this data processing is based on Art. 6(1)(b) GDPR. If contact is made for other reasons, processing is based on Art. 6(1)(f) GDPR out of our overriding legitimate interest in handling and responding to your request. In this case, you have the right to object at any time, for reasons arising from your particular situation, to the processing of your personal data based on Art. 6(1)(f) GDPR. We use your email address only to process your request. Your data will then be deleted in compliance with statutory retention periods, unless you have consented to further processing and use.

Orders

Collection, Processing, and Disclosure of Personal Data in Orders

When you place an order, we collect and process your personal data only to the extent necessary to fulfill and process your order and to handle your inquiries. The provision of data is necessary for the conclusion of the contract. Failure to provide it will result in no contract being concluded. Processing is carried out on the basis of Art. 6(1)(b) GDPR and is necessary for the performance of a contract with you. Your data may be passed on, for example, to shipping companies, dropshipping or fulfillment providers, payment service providers, order processing service providers, and IT service providers. In all cases, we strictly observe the legal requirements. The scope of data transmission is limited to a minimum.

Payment Service Providers

Use of the Payment Service Provider Stripe

We use the payment service Stripe (Stripe Payments Europe Ltd., 1 Grand Canal Street Lower, Grand Canal Dock, Dublin, Ireland) on our website. Data processing is carried out for the purpose of offering you payment via the payment service. By selecting and using Stripe, the data required for payment processing is transmitted to Stripe in order to fulfill the contract with you using the selected payment method. This processing is based on Art. 6(1)(b) GDPR. Stripe reserves the right to obtain a credit report based on mathematical-statistical procedures using credit agencies. For this purpose, Stripe transmits the personal data required for a credit check to a credit agency and uses the information received about the statistical probability of a payment default to make a balanced decision about the establishment, execution, or termination of the contractual relationship. The credit report may contain probability values (score values) that are calculated on the basis of scientifically recognized mathematical-statistical methods and may include address data in their calculation. Your legitimate interests will be considered in accordance with legal requirements. Data processing serves the purpose of credit assessment for contract initiation. Processing is based on Art. 6(1)(f) GDPR out of our overriding legitimate interest in protection against payment default if Stripe makes an advance payment. You have the right to object at any time, for reasons arising from your particular situation, to the processing of your personal data based on Art. 6(1)(f) GDPR by notifying Stripe. The provision of data is necessary for the conclusion of the contract with the payment method you have chosen. Failure to provide it will result in the contract not being concluded with the payment method you have chosen. All Stripe transactions are subject to the Stripe privacy policy, which you can find at https://stripe.com/privacy
