3. Data collection on our website
Cookies
Some pages use cookies. Cookies do not damage your computer or contain viruses. They help make our services more user-friendly, effective and secure. Cookies are small text files stored on your computer by your browser.
Most cookies we use are session cookies, which are deleted automatically after your visit. Other cookies remain on your device until you delete them. These cookies enable us to recognise your browser on your next visit.
You can configure your browser to notify you when cookies are set, allow them only in individual cases, reject them for specific cases or altogether, and delete them automatically when the browser closes. Disabling cookies may limit this website’s functionality.
Cookies necessary for electronic communications or to provide functions you request, such as the shopping basket, are stored on the basis of Article 6(1)(f) GDPR. The website operator has a legitimate interest in storing cookies to provide technically reliable and optimised services. Any other cookies, such as those used to analyse browsing behaviour, are addressed separately in this privacy policy.
Server log files
The hosting provider automatically collects and stores information in server log files that your browser transmits to us. This includes:
- Browser type and version
- Operating system used
- Referrer URL
- Host name of the accessing computer
- Time of the server request
- IP address
This data is not combined with data from other sources.
The stated legal basis for processing is Article 6(1)(f) GDPR, described here as permitting processing for the performance of a contract or pre-contractual measures.
Contact form
If you send us an enquiry using the contact form, we store the information you provide, including your contact details, to process the enquiry and handle follow-up questions. We do not disclose this data without your consent.
Data entered in the contact form is therefore processed exclusively on the basis of your consent under Article 6(1)(a) GDPR. You may withdraw this consent at any time by sending us an informal email. Withdrawal does not affect the lawfulness of processing carried out beforehand.
We retain the data entered in the contact form until you request its deletion, withdraw your consent to storage, or the purpose of storage no longer applies, for example after your enquiry has been fully processed. Mandatory statutory provisions, particularly retention periods, remain unaffected.
