II. General information on data processing 

1. Scope of processing of personal data

In principle, we process personal data of our users only insofar as this is necessary for the provision of a functioning website, processing of the order, as well as our content and services. The processing of personal data of our users takes place regularly only with the consent of the user. An exception applies to cases in which prior consent is not possible for reasons of fact and the processing of the data is permitted by law. (Art. 6 DSGVO lawfulness of processing.)

1.1 "Data transfer to shipping service providers"

Insofar as you have given us your express consent during or after your order, we will, pursuant to Art. 6 para. 1 p. 1 lit. a DSGVO forward your e-mail address to the selected shipping service provider so that he can contact you before delivery for the purpose of notification of delivery or acceptance.

The consent can be revoked at any time by sending a message to the contact option described below or directly to the shipping service provider at the contact address listed below. After revocation, we will delete the data you have provided for this purpose, unless you have expressly consented to further use of your data or we reserve the right to use data that goes beyond this, which is permitted by law and about which we will inform you in this declaration.

2. Legal basis for the processing of personal data

Insofar as we obtain the consent of the data subject for processing of personal data, Art. 6 para. 1 lit. a EU General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR) as legal basis.

If processing of personal data is required to fulfill a legal obligation that our company is subject to, Art. 6 para. 1 lit. c DSGVO as legal basis.

In the event that vital interests of the data subject or another natural person require the processing of personal data, Art. 6 para. 1 lit. d GDPR serves as the legal basis.

If processing is necessary to safeguard the legitimate interests of our company or a third party, and if the interests, fundamental rights and freedoms of the data subject do not outweigh the former interest, Art. 6 para. 1 lit. f DSGVO as legal basis for processing.

3. Data erasure and storage duration
