Recipients of personal data

As part of our business activities, we collaborate with various external parties. This sometimes requires the transfer of personal data to these external parties. We only disclose personal data to external parties if this is necessary for the performance of a contract, if we are legally obligated to do so (e.g., disclosure of data to tax authorities), if we have a legitimate interest in the disclosure pursuant to Article 6(1)(f) GDPR, or if another legal basis permits the data transfer. When using data processors, we only transfer our customers' personal data on the basis of a valid data processing agreement. In the case of joint processing, a joint processing agreement is concluded.

Revocation of your consent to data processing

Many data processing operations are only possible with your explicit consent. You can revoke your consent at any time. The legality of data processing carried out before the revocation remains unaffected by the revocation.

Right to object to data processing in special cases and to direct marketing (Art. 21 GDPR)

If data processing is based on Article 6(1)(e) or (f) of the GDPR, you have the right to object, on grounds relating to your particular situation, at any time to processing of personal data concerning you; this also applies to profiling based on these provisions. The specific legal basis for each processing operation can be found in this privacy policy. If you object, we will no longer process your personal data unless we can demonstrate compelling legitimate grounds for the processing which override your interests, rights and freedoms or the processing serves the purpose of establishing, exercising or defending legal claims (objection pursuant to Art. 21 para. 1 GDPR).

If your personal data is processed for direct marketing purposes, you have the right to object at any time to the processing of your personal data for such marketing; this also applies to profiling insofar as it is related to such direct marketing. If you object, your personal data will subsequently no longer be processed for direct marketing purposes (objection pursuant to Article 21(2) GDPR).

Right to lodge a complaint with the competent supervisory authority

In the event of violations of the GDPR, data subjects have the right to lodge a complaint with a supervisory authority, in particular in the Member State of their habitual residence, their place of work, or the place of the alleged infringement. This right to lodge a complaint is without prejudice to any other administrative or judicial remedy.

Right to data portability

You have the right to receive the data that we process automatically based on your consent or in fulfillment of a contract, either for yourself or for a third party, in a commonly used, machine-readable format. If you request the direct transfer of the data to another controller, this will only be done if technically feasible.

Under applicable law, you have the right to request information, free of charge, about your stored personal data, its origin and recipients, and the purpose of the data processing, as well as the right to rectification or erasure of this data. You can contact us at any time with regard to this and any other questions concerning personal data.

Right to restriction of processing

You have the right to request the restriction of the processing of your personal data. You can contact us at any time to do so. The right to restrict processing exists in the following cases:

  • If you dispute the accuracy of your personal data stored with us, we generally need time to verify this. For the duration of the verification process, you have the right to request the restriction of the processing of your personal data.
  • If the processing of your personal data was/is unlawful, you can request the restriction of data processing instead of deletion.
  • If we no longer need your personal data, but you require it for the establishment, exercise or defense of legal claims, you have the right to request restriction of processing of your personal data instead of erasure.
  • If you have objected to processing pursuant to Article 21(1) GDPR, a balancing of interests between your interests and ours must be carried out. Until it is determined whose interests prevail, you have the right to request the restriction of the processing of your personal data.

If you have restricted the processing of your personal data, this data – apart from being stored – may only be processed with your consent or for the establishment, exercise or defense of legal claims or for the protection of the rights of another natural or legal person or for reasons of important public interest of the European Union or of a Member State.

SSL or TLS encryption

This site uses SSL/TLS encryption for security reasons and to protect the transmission of confidential information, such as orders or inquiries that you send to us as the site operator. You can recognize an encrypted connection by the fact that the browser's address bar changes from "http://" to "https://" and by the lock symbol in your browser's address bar.

When SSL or TLS encryption is enabled, the data you send to us cannot be read by third parties.

Encrypted payment transactions on this website

If, after concluding a paid contract, you are obligated to provide us with your payment details (e.g., account number for direct debit), this data is required for payment processing.

Payments via common payment methods (Visa/MasterCard, direct debit) are processed exclusively via an encrypted SSL or TLS connection. You can recognize an encrypted connection by the fact that the browser's address bar changes from "http://" to "https://" and by the padlock symbol in your browser's address bar.

With encrypted communication, your payment details that you transmit to us cannot be read by third parties.

Target group formation with customer matching

To create target audiences, we use, among other things, the customer matching feature of Google Ads Remarketing. In this process, we transfer certain customer data (e.g., email addresses) from our customer lists to Google. If the customers in question are Google users and logged into their Google account, they will be shown relevant advertising messages within the Google network (e.g., on YouTube, Gmail, or in the search engine).

Meta-Pixel (formerly Facebook Pixel)

This website uses the visitor action pixel from Meta for conversion tracking. The provider of this service is Meta Platforms Ireland Limited, 4 Grand Canal Square, Dublin 2, Ireland. According to Meta, the collected data is also transferred to the USA and other third countries.

This allows the behavior of website visitors to be tracked after they have been redirected to the provider's website by clicking on a meta ad. This enables the effectiveness of meta ads to be evaluated for statistical and market research purposes and future advertising campaigns to be optimized.

The data collected is anonymous for us as the operators of this website; we cannot draw any conclusions about the identity of the users. However, the data is stored and processed by Meta, so a connection to the respective user profile on Facebook or Instagram is possible, and Meta can use the data for its own advertising purposes in accordance with the Meta Data Policy ( https://de-de.facebook.com/about/privacy/ ). This allows Meta to display advertisements on Facebook or Instagram pages and other advertising channels. We, as the website operators, have no influence over this use of the data.

The use of this service is based on your consent pursuant to Art. 6 para. 1 lit. a GDPR and § 25 para. 1 TDDDG. This consent can be revoked at any time.

Advanced matching allows us to send various types of data (e.g., city, state, postal code, hashed email addresses, names, gender, date of birth, or phone number) of our customers and prospects, which we collect through our website, to Meta. This enables us to tailor our advertising campaigns on Facebook and Instagram even more precisely to people who are interested in our offers.

According to this agreement, we are responsible for providing data protection information when using the Meta tool and for the data protection-compliant implementation of the tool on our website. Meta is responsible for the data security of Meta products. You can assert your data subject rights (e.g., requests for access) regarding data processed by Facebook or Instagram directly with Meta. If you assert your data subject rights with us, we are obligated to forward them to Meta.

9. Online marketing and partner programs

Affiliate programs on this website

We participate in affiliate partner programs. In affiliate partner programs, a company's advertisements are placed on websites or other media belonging to other companies within the affiliate partner network. When you click on one of these affiliate ads, you are redirected to the advertised offer. If you subsequently complete a specific transaction (conversion), the affiliate and, if applicable, the owner of the medium on which the advertisement is placed receive a commission. To calculate this commission, the affiliate network operator needs to be able to track which advertisement led you to the respective offer and to which you completed the predefined transaction. Cookies or similar tracking technologies (e.g., device fingerprinting) are used for this purpose.

The storage and analysis of data is based on Article 6(1)(f) GDPR. Participants in the affiliate program have a legitimate interest in the correct calculation of affiliate commissions. If corresponding consent has been requested, processing is carried out exclusively on the basis of Article 6(1)(a) GDPR and Section 25(1) TDDDG, insofar as the consent includes the storage of cookies or access to information on the user's device (e.g., device fingerprinting) within the meaning of the TDDDG. Consent can be revoked at any time.
