Privacy Policy
Unless otherwise stated below, providing your personal data is neither legally or contractually required, nor necessary for concluding a contract. You are not obliged to provide the data. Not providing it has no consequences. This only applies insofar as no other indication is made in the following processing activities.
"Personal data" refers to any information relating to an identified or identifiable natural person.

Server Log Files

Each time you access our website, usage data is transmitted to us or our web host/IT service provider by your internet browser and stored in protocol data (so-called server log files). These stored data include, for example, the name of the page accessed, date and time of access, IP address, amount of data transferred, and the requesting provider. Processing is based on Article 6(1)(f) GDPR, due to our overriding legitimate interest in ensuring the smooth operation of our website and improving our offer.

Orders

Collection, Processing, and Transfer of Personal Data in Connection with Orders
When placing an order, we collect and process your personal data only to the extent necessary to fulfill and process your order and handle your inquiries. Providing this data is necessary for concluding the contract. Failure to provide it means that no contract can be concluded. Processing is based on Article 6(1)(b) GDPR and is necessary to fulfill a contract with you.
Your data may be passed on, for example, to the shipping companies and dropshipping providers you choose, payment service providers, service providers for order processing, and IT service providers. In all cases, we strictly comply with legal requirements. The scope of data transmission is limited to the minimum required.

Technically Necessary Cookies
Unless otherwise stated in this privacy policy, we only use technically necessary cookies to make our service more user-friendly, effective, and secure. Cookies also allow our systems to recognize your browser after switching pages and provide services. Some functions of our website cannot be offered without cookies, as they require the browser to be recognized after a page change.

The use of cookies or similar technologies is based on § 25(2) TDDDG.

Plugins and Other Services

Use of YouTube
We use the function to embed YouTube videos from Google Ireland Limited (Gordon House, Barrow Street, Dublin 4, Ireland; “YouTube”) on our website. YouTube is affiliated with Google LLC (1600 Amphitheatre Parkway, Mountain View, CA 94043, USA; “Google”).
The function displays YouTube-hosted videos in an iframe on the website. The “Enhanced Privacy Mode” option is enabled, so YouTube does not store information about website visitors. Only when you watch a video is information transmitted to and stored by YouTube. Your data may be transferred to the USA. For the USA, an adequacy decision by the EU Commission exists — the Trans-Atlantic Data Privacy Framework (TADPF). YouTube is certified under TADPF and committed to adhering to European data protection principles.
The use of cookies or similar technologies is based on your consent pursuant to § 25(1) TDDDG in conjunction with Article 6(1)(a) GDPR. Processing of your personal data is based on your consent under Article 6(1)(a) GDPR. You may revoke your consent at any time without affecting the legality of processing carried out prior to revocation.
