Thank you for your interest in our online shop. The protection of your privacy is very important to us. Below, we inform you in detail about how your data is handled.

Data Access and Hosting

You can visit our websites without providing any personal information. Each time you access a website, the web server automatically stores a so-called server log file, which contains, for example, the name of the requested file, your IP address, the date and time of retrieval, the amount of data transferred, and the type of request provider (access data) and documents the retrieval.

This access data is evaluated exclusively for the purpose of ensuring the smooth operation of the website and improving our offering. This serves our overriding legitimate interests, within the framework of a balancing of interests, in an accurate presentation of our offer, in accordance with Art. 6 para. 1 sentence 1 lit. f GDPR. All access data will be deleted no later than seven days after the end of your page visit.

Hosting services provided by a third party

As part of processing on our behalf, a third-party provider renders hosting and website presentation services for us. All data collected in connection with the use of this website or in the forms described below in the online shop will be processed on their servers. Processing on other servers will only take place within the scope explained here.

This service provider is based within a country of the European Union or the European Economic Area.

Data collection and use for contract processing, contact, and when opening a customer account

We collect personal data if you voluntarily provide it to us as part of your order or when contacting us (e.g. via contact form or email). Mandatory fields are marked as such, because in these cases we absolutely need the data for contract processing or processing your contact and you cannot send the order or contact us without providing them. Which data is collected can be seen from the respective input forms. We use the data you provide in accordance with Art. 6 Para. 1 S. 1 lit. b GDPR for contract processing and processing your inquiries.
If you have given your consent according to Art. 6 para. 1 sentence 1 lit. a GDPR for the decision to open a customer account, we use your data for the purpose of opening a customer account.
After complete processing of the contract or deletion of your customer account, your data will be restricted for further processing and deleted after the expiry of the tax and commercial law retention periods, unless you have expressly consented to further use of your data or we reserve the right to further data use, which is legally permitted and will be communicated to you in this declaration. The deletion of your customer account is possible at any time and can be done either by sending a message to the contact option described below or by using a function provided for this purpose in the customer account.

Data Exchange

For the fulfillment of the contract, we pass on your data in accordance with Art. 6 para. 1 sentence 1 lit. b GDPR to the shipping company commissioned with the delivery, insofar as this is necessary for the delivery of ordered goods. Depending on which payment service provider you select in the order process, we pass on the payment data collected for this purpose to the credit institution commissioned with the payment and, if applicable, to payment service providers commissioned by us or to the selected payment service to process payments. Some of the selected payment service providers also collect this data themselves if you create an account there. In this case, you must log in to the payment service provider with your access data during the order process. The data protection declaration of the respective payment service provider applies.

We also use an external merchandise management system for order and contract processing. The data transfer or processing taking place in this context is based on order processing.

Data transfer to debt collection agencies

For the fulfillment of the contract in accordance with Art. 6 para. 1 sentence 1 lit. b GDPR, we will pass on your data to a commissioned debt collection agency if our payment claim has not been settled despite a prior reminder. In this case, the claim will be collected directly by the debt collection agency. Furthermore, the transfer serves to safeguard our overriding legitimate interests, within the framework of a balancing of interests, in the effective assertion and enforcement of our payment claim in accordance with Art. 6 para. 1 sentence 1 lit. f GDPR.

An adequate level of data protection is ensured. Further information on data protection at Trusted Shops GmbH can be found here .

When you access the Trustbadge, the web server automatically stores a so-called server log file, which also contains your IP address, date and time of retrieval, amount of data transferred and the requesting provider (access data) and documents the retrieval. Individual access data is stored in a security database to analyze security problems. The log files are automatically deleted at the latest 90 days after creation.

Further personal data is transferred to Trusted Shops GmbH if you decide to use Trusted Shops products after completing an order or have already registered to use them. The contractual agreement made between you and Trusted Shops applies. For this purpose, personal data from the order data is automatically collected. Whether you, as a buyer, are already registered for the use of the product is checked automatically using a neutral parameter, the email address hashed using a one-way cryptological function. Before transmission, the email address is converted into this hash value, which cannot be decrypted by Trusted Shops. After checking for a match, the parameter is automatically deleted.

This is necessary to safeguard our and Trusted Shops' overriding legitimate interests in providing the buyer protection and transaction rating services associated with the specific order in accordance with Art. 6 para. 1 sentence 1 lit. f GDPR.
