1.1 What is personal data?
Personal data is data that reveals or can reveal the identity of the user. We adhere to the principle of data minimization. This means we limit the collection of personal data as far as possible.

We exclusively use personal data for the purposes of drawing up contracts, content-related design, and performance or processing of the contractual relationship (Art. 6 1. (b) GDPR).
Beyond this, we only process personal data if we have received your consent (Art. 6 1. (a) GDPR) or if processing is necessary for our legitimate interests, and after a weighing up of interests shows that processing is not in conflict with your overriding interests, basic rights, or basic freedoms (Art. 6 1. (f) GDPR).
We may use processors for the processing of your personal data, with whom we have concluded an order processing agreement, if necessary, However, we will not pass on the personal data to third parties.
Strictly for contract performance, we transfer your data to the forwarding company contracted to deliver the goods only to the extent necessary for delivery of the goods ordered. For payment procedures, we pass on the necessary payment data to your bank and, if applicable, to the payment service provider you have selected.
Your personal data is processed exclusively within the EU, unless otherwise stated in the following.
The processing of your personal data takes place in the EU and in countries classified by the EU as safe or appropriate. If the processing of personal data takes place in the USA, care is taken to ensure that the services we use are certified under the “Data Privacy Framework”.

7. Third-party services
7.1 Social media links
We have our own social media sites on the third-party platforms linked to this website. You can use these links to jump to the websites of the various third-party providers (e.g. Facebook, Twitter, Instagram). To prevent unnecessary data transfer, we recommend that you log out of the third-party service before using one of these links so that merely using the link does not enable the third party to create a user profile of you.
7.2 YouTube
This website and the integrated offers contain embedded YouTube videos. This enables a connection to YouTube and the videos available there. YouTube is provided by Google Ireland Limited, Gordon House, Barrow Street, Dublin 4, Ireland (Google). The use of the YouTube videos is only possible with your consent (Art. 6 1. (a) GDPR).

7.3 Google AdSense
This website uses Google AdSense, a service for the integration of adverts from Google. AdSense is operated by Google Ireland Limited, Gordon House, Barrow Street, Dublin 4, Ireland (Google). Google AdSense uses cookies, which are small text files saved on your computer that enable analysis of your use of the website. Google AdSense also uses web beacons. Web beacons are used to analyze visitor traffic and other information. The information generated by the cookies and web beacons on your use of this website and the delivery of advertising formats is normally transferred to a Google server in the USA and stored there. This also includes the IP address. Google can pass on this information to its contractual partners. A weighing of interests shows that the processing which is technically necessary for display of the ads does not infringe your rights and also that your rights are not overriding (Art. 6 1. (f) GDPR). This is primarily because Google does not connect your IP address with your other stored data. You may refuse the use of cookies by selecting the appropriate settings on your browser, however please note that if you do this you may not be able to fully use all of the website functions.
7.3.1 Google Ads Conversion
We use Google Ads Conversion (operated by Google Ireland Limited, Gordon House, Barrow Street, Dublin 4, Ireland), in order to present our offers by means of adverts (Google Ads) on external websites. Google delivers these ads via ad servers. This works using ad server cookies which apply certain parameters to measure success, such as the number of views or clicks by users. If you access our website through a Google ad, Google Ads places a cookie on your computer. Normally, these cookies become inoperative after 30 days and are not intended to be used for personal identification. As a rule, these cookies store analysis values in the form of the unique cookie ID, number of ad impressions per placement (frequency), last impression (relevant for post-view conversions), and opt-out information. If you visit our website as a result of this kind of ad and the cookie on your computer is still operative, we and Google can recognize that you clicked on the advertisement and were forwarded to this page. Each Ads customer gets its own cookie. Consequently, cookies cannot be tracked through the websites of Ads customers. We do not collect or process personal data from these ads. We merely receive statistical evaluations from Google. Based on these evaluations, we can recognize which of the ads we use are particularly effective. We do not receive any further data from the use of the ads. In particular, we cannot identify users based on this information. Due to the marketing tools implemented, your browser automatically creates a direct connection with the Google server. We do not have any influence over the scope and further use of the data which Google collects through this tool. Therefore we can only inform you that, through this service, Google is able to link your visit to our website to your Google account if you are logged in to your Google account. Furthermore, irrespective of whether you have a Google user account, Google can find and store your IP address.

7.3.2 Google Ads Remarketing
This website uses the remarketing function of Google Ireland Limited, Gordon House, Barrow Street, Dublin 4, Ireland. The purpose of the function is to present interest-based ads to the users of the website within the Google advertising network. A cookie is saved in the website user’s browser which enables the tool to recognize the user in pseudonymized form when they access websites in the Google advertising network. On these websites, users can be shown ads related to content they have previously accessed on other websites that use the Google remarketing function. Google states that it does not collect any personal data in this process. If you do not agree to use of the remarketing function from Google, you can opt out by altering the relevant settings at http://www.google.com/settings/ads.
