Collection and storage of personal data, as well as the nature and purpose of its use

a) When visiting the website
When you visit our website, the browser used on your device automatically sends information to our website server. This information is temporarily stored in a log file. The following information is collected without your intervention and stored until it is automatically deleted:

  • IP address of the requesting computer,
  • date and time of access,
  • name and URL of the file accessed,
  • website from which access is made (referrer URL),
  • browser used and, if applicable, the operating system of your computer and the name of your access provider.

We process the aforementioned data for the following purposes:

  • Ensuring smooth connection to the website,
  • ensuring comfortable use of our website,
  • evaluating system security and stability, and
  • for other administrative purposes.

The legal basis for data processing is Art. 6(1)(f) GDPR. Our legitimate interest follows from the purposes listed above for data collection. Under no circumstances do we use the collected data for the purpose of drawing conclusions about your person.
In addition, we use cookies and analysis services when you visit our website. You can find more detailed explanations in sections 4 and 5 of this privacy policy.

b) When registering for our newsletter
If you have expressly consented in accordance with Art. 6 (1) (a) GDPR, we will use your email address to send you our newsletter on a regular basis. To receive the newsletter, you only need to provide your email address.
You can unsubscribe at any time, for example via a link at the end of each newsletter. Alternatively, you can also send us your unsubscribe request at any time by email (see point 1 Contact details).

c) When using our contact form
If you have any questions, you can contact us using the form provided on the website. You must provide a valid email address so that we know who the enquiry comes from and can respond to it. Further details can be provided voluntarily. Data processing for the purpose of contacting us is carried out in accordance with Art. 6 (1) (a) GDPR on the basis of your voluntary consent.
The personal data collected by us for the use of the contact form will be automatically deleted after your enquiry has been processed.

d) When providing chargeable services and sending samples
In order to provide paid services, we request additional data from our customers. This data includes inventory data, communication data, contract data and payment data. Your personal data, insofar as it is necessary for the establishment, content or modification of the contractual relationship (inventory data), will be used exclusively for the purpose of contract processing. For example, your name and address must be passed on to the goods supplier in order to deliver the goods. Without your express consent or without a legal basis, your personal data will not be passed on to third parties outside the scope of contract processing.
Processing is carried out on the basis of Art. 6 (1) lit. b (execution of order processes) and c (legally required archiving) GDPR. To ensure the security of your data during transmission, we use state-of-the-art encryption methods (such as SSL) via HTTPS.
Customer data is deleted after the statutory warranty obligations have expired. In the case of statutory archiving obligations (tax law retention obligations), deletion takes place after 10 years.

Data transfer

Your personal data will not be transferred to third parties for purposes other than those listed below.
We will only pass on your personal data to third parties if:

  • You have given your express consent to this in accordance with Art. 6(1)(a) GDPR
  • the transfer is necessary for the establishment, exercise or defence of legal claims pursuant to Art. 6 para. 1 sentence 1 lit. f GDPR and there is no reason to assume that you have an overriding interest worthy of protection in not disclosing your data,
  • in the event that there is a legal obligation for the disclosure pursuant to Art. 6 para. 1 sentence 1 lit. c GDPR, and
  • this is legally permissible and necessary for the performance of contractual relationships with you pursuant to Art. 6 para. 1 sentence 1 lit. b GDPR.

For example, we use so-called session cookies to recognise that you have already visited individual pages on our website. These are automatically deleted when you leave our website.
In addition, we also use temporary cookies to optimise user-friendliness, which are stored on your device for a specific period of time. If you visit our site again to use our services, it will automatically recognise that you have already been with us and what entries and settings you have made, so that you do not have to enter them again.

These cookies enable us to automatically recognise that you have already visited our site when you visit it again. These cookies are automatically deleted after a defined period of time.
The data processed by cookies is necessary for the purposes mentioned above in order to protect our legitimate interests and those of third parties in accordance with Art. 6 para. 1 sentence 1 lit. f GDPR. Most browsers automatically accept cookies. However, you can configure your browser so that no cookies are stored on your computer or so that a message always appears before a new cookie is created.

  • to request the erasure of your personal data stored by us in accordance with Art. 17 GDPR, unless the processing is necessary for exercising the right of freedom of expression
  • and information, for compliance with a legal obligation, for reasons of public interest or for the establishment, exercise or defence of legal claims;
  • pursuant to Art. 18 GDPR, to request the restriction of the processing of your personal data if you dispute the accuracy of the data, the processing is unlawful but you oppose its erasure and we no longer need the data, but you need it to assert, exercise or defend legal claims, or you have objected to the processing pursuant to Art. 21 GDPR;

  • to lodge a complaint with a supervisory authority in accordance with Art. 77 GDPR. As a rule, you can contact the supervisory authority of your usual place of residence or workplace or our company headquarters for this purpose.

right of objection

If your personal data is processed on the basis of legitimate interests pursuant to Art. 6 (1) (f) GDPR, you have the right to object to the processing of your personal data pursuant to Art. 21 GDPR, provided that there are reasons for this arising from your particular situation or the objection is directed against direct marketing. In the latter case, you have a general right to object, which we will implement without you having to specify a particular situation. If you wish to exercise your right of revocation or objection, simply send us an email (see point 1 Contact details).

data security

We use the widely used SSL (Secure Socket Layer) procedure in conjunction with the highest level of encryption supported by your browser to send the contact form and order form on our site. This is usually 256-bit encryption. If your browser does not support 256-bit encryption, we use 128-bit v3 technology instead.
Furthermore, we use appropriate technical and organisational security measures to protect your data against accidental or intentional manipulation, partial or complete loss, destruction or unauthorised access by third parties. Our security measures are continuously improved in line with technological developments.
