II. The rights of users and data subjects

With regard to the data processing to be described in more detail below, users and data subjects have the right

  • to confirmation of whether data concerning them is being processed, information about the data being processed, further information about the nature of the data processing, and copies of the data (cf. also Art. 15 GDPR);

  • to correct or complete incorrect or incomplete data (cf. also Art. 16 GDPR);

Social media links via graphics

We also integrate the following social media sites into our website. The integration takes place via a linked graphic of the respective site. The use of these graphics stored on our own servers prevents the automatic connection to the servers of these networks for their display. Only by clicking on the corresponding graphic will you be forwarded to the service of the respective social network.

Initially, this data includes such things as your IP address, the date and time of your visit, and the page visited. If you are logged into your user account on that network, however, the network operator might assign the information collected about your visit to our site to your personal account. If you interact by clicking Like, Share, etc., this information can be stored your personal user account and possibly posted on the respective network. To prevent this, you need to log out of your social media account before clicking on the graphic. The various social media networks also offer settings that you can configure accordingly.

a) Shopify-Shop-Software

We use “Shopify” to host our shop system, to present our offers and for the processing of contracts.

"Shopify" is the service of a group of companies consisting of the companies Shopify Data Processing (USA) Inc., Shopify Payments (USA) Inc., Shopify (USA) Inc., Shopify Commerce Singapore Pte.  Ltd., and Shopify International Limited.

 

Insofar as we are located in the European Economic Area (EEA), processing is carried out by Shopify International Limited, Victoria Buildings, 2nd  floor, 1-2 Haddington Road, Dublin 4, D04 XN32, Ireland, hereinafter referred to only as "Shopify".

Klarna „CHECK-OUT“

To process orders through our online shop, we use the payment service of Klarna Bank AB, Sveavägen 46, 111 34 Stockholm, Sweden, hereinafter referred to as "Klarna", on our website.

 

For this purpose, we have integrated Klarna's check-out into the final order page of our online shop.

 

The legal basis is the fulfilment of the contract according to Art. 6 Para. 1 lit. b.)  EU General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR). In addition, we have a legitimate interest in offering effective and secure payment options, so that another legal basis ensues from Art. 6 para. 1 lit f.) GDPR.

This means that the operating system you are using, type and version of your Internet browser, website from which the check-out has been requested, date and time of the call and the IP address are sent to Klarna - even without your interaction with the check-out page.

 

As soon as you complete the order in our online shop, the data you have entered in the input fields of the check-out page will be processed by Klarna at your own responsibility in order to process the payment.

 

With the offered payment methods "PayPal" and "Advance Payment", processing without your further consent is limited to the transfer of the payment data to us or PayPal.

 

With the offered payment methods of "Purchase on Account", "Hire Purchase", "Credit Card", "Direct Debit" or "Immediate Payment", the following personal data is processed by Klarna for the purpose of payment processing and for identity and credit checking:

- Contact information such as names, addresses, date of birth, gender, email address, telephone number, mobile phone number, IP address, etc.

- Information on the processing of the order, such as product type, product number, price, etc.

- Payment information, such as debit and credit card data (card number, expiry date and CCV code), invoice data, account number, etc.

 

If you choose the payment method "Purchase on Account" or "Hire Purchase", Klarna collects and uses personal data and information about your previous payment behaviour to decide whether you will be granted the desired payment method.
