In addition to the purely informative use of our website, you can also actively use our website to order products, register for our newsletter or to contact us. 

In addition to the processing of your personal data described above for purely informational use, we will then also process further personal data from you that we need to process your order or to process and respond to your enquiry.

In any case, this includes your name and email address in order to send you a reply, as well as any other information you send us in the course of your communication.

In doing so, we process the documents requested and submitted by you, which consist of the following (or only partial) documents:

Newsletter and promotional emails

Data processing when subscribing to the e-mail newsletter

If you register for our newsletter, we process the data required for this purpose or separately provided by you in order to send you our e-mail newsletter.

Use of data for e-mail advertising

If we use your e-mail address in connection with the commissioning and ordering of our products and you have not objected to this, we reserve the right to regularly send you offers for similar products from our range by e-mail. 

You can object to this use of your e-mail address at any time by sending a message to the contact option given above or via a link provided for this purpose in the advertising e-mail, without incurring any costs other than the transmission costs according to the basic rates.

4. Contact enquiries, conclusion of contracts and registration for events outside the website

If you make a contact enquiry with us, conclude a contract or register for a free or paid event and these do not take place via our website but via other communication channels (e.g. e-mail, telephone, in person), we process your personal data which you provide to us, among other things, as part of the conclusion of the contract or registration and which are required for the conclusion of the contract and the provision of our products or services, for the purpose of establishing, implementing and, if applicable, terminating our contracts/events with you, as set out below.

Contact requests

In order to be able to process and respond to your enquiries to us, e.g. by telephone, by post or to our email address, we process the personal data you provide to us in this context. 

In any case, this includes your name and address information, such as e-mail address, postal address, or a fax number, in order to send you a reply, as well as the other information you send us in the course of your communication.

Conclusion of contract

If you order our billable products by telephone, e-mail or in person, we process your personal data in order to accept and process the order and to be able to provide you with the ordered products. 

In doing so, we process the details shown in the respective input forms (e-mail, address, title, position, first and last name, company, street/house number, postcode, city, country, telephone).

Credit assessment

If we make advance payments, we reserve the right to obtain creditworthiness information from credit agencies on the basis of mathematical-statistical procedures in order to protect our legitimate interests.

For this purpose, we transmit the personal data required for a credit assessment and use the information received about the statistical probability of a payment default. 

The creditworthiness information may include probability values (score values) which are calculated on the basis of scientifically recognised mathematical-statistical procedures. 

In this process, the customer's future risk of non-payment is inferred by means of a large number of characteristics, such as income, address data, occupation, marital status and previous payment behaviour. 

The result is expressed in the form of a payment value (so-called score). The information obtained in this way forms the basis of our decision on the establishment, implementation or termination of the contractual relationship. 

However, the choice of one of the payment methods offered is not dependent on such information. 

5. Data processing during the performance of the contract

During the performance of the contract, we process your personal data as follows:

Service provision

To the extent necessary for the performance of the contract, we process your personal data for the provision of services, e.g. to contact you, to coordinate appointments, to clarify queries and to provide services.

Payment

We use payment service providers and banks to process payments.

Compliance with legal requirements

We also process your personal data in order to comply with other legal obligations that we have in connection with the performance of the contract. These include, in particular, retention periods under commercial, trade or tax law.

Legal enforcement

We process your personal data in order to:

be able to assert our rights and enforce our legal claims;

be able to defend ourselves against legal claims;

the extent necessary to prevent or prosecute criminal offences.

III. Categories of recipients

Initially, only our employees receive knowledge of your personal data. 

In addition, to the extent permitted or required by law, we share your personal data with other recipients who provide services to us in connection with our website. 

We limit the disclosure of your personal data to what is necessary, in particular to process your order. 

In some cases, our service providers receive your personal data as order processors and are then strictly bound by our instructions when handling your personal data. 

In some cases, the recipients act independently with your data that we transmit to them.

Below we list the categories of recipients of your personal data:

- Shipping service providers for the delivery of your ordered goods;

- Payment service providers and banks, if applicable, for the processing of payments;

- IT service providers for the administration and hosting of our website or the operation of our apps, EDP systems;

- Debt collection companies and legal advisors for the assertion of our claims.

This also includes the initiation of a contract (pre-contractual legal relationship) and the processing of a contract. 

In addition, we then store your personal data until any legal claims arising from the relationship with you become time-barred, in order to use them as evidence if necessary. 

The limitation period is usually between 12 and 36 months, but can also be up to 30 years.

When the statute of limitations expires, we delete your personal data, unless there is a legal obligation to retain them, for example from the German Commercial Code (§§ 238, 257 para. 4 HGB) or from the German Fiscal Code (§ 147 para. 3, 4 AO). 

These retention obligations can be two to ten years.
