Cookies

A session cookie is a small text file that is sent by the respective servers when you visit a website and is temporarily stored on your hard disk. This file as such contains a so-called session ID, with which various requests from your browser can be assigned to the joint session. This allows your computer to be recognized when you return to our website. These cookies are deleted after you close your browser. They are used, for example, to enable you to use the shopping cart function across several pages. We also use a small number of persistent cookies (also small text files that are stored on your end device), which remain on your end device and enable us to recognize your browser the next time you visit. These cookies are stored on your hard disk and delete themselves after the specified time. Their lifespan is 1 month to 10 years. This enables us to present our website to you in a more user-friendly, effective and secure manner and, for example, to display information on the site that is specifically tailored to your interests.

Based on the cookie technology, we only receive pseudonymized information, for example about which pages of our store have been visited, which products have been viewed, etc. You can set your browser so that you are informed in advance about the setting of cookies and can decide in individual cases whether you want to exclude the acceptance of cookies for certain cases or in general, or that cookies are completely prevented.

Google Analytics
Our website uses Google Analytics, a web analytics service provided by Google Inc, 1600 Amphitheatre Parkway, Mountain View, CA 94043, USA.
Google Analytics uses cookies. These enable Google to analyze the use of our website. The information collected by the cookie about the use of our pages (including your IP address) is usually transmitted to a Google server in the USA and stored there.
We would like to point out that on this website Google Analytics has been extended by the code “gat._anonymizeIp();” in order to ensure an anonymized collection of IP addresses (so-called IP masking). If anonymization is active, Google shortens IP addresses within member states of the European Union or in other contracting states of the Agreement on the European Economic Area, which is why no conclusions can be drawn about your identity. Only in exceptional cases will the full IP address be transmitted to a Google server in the USA and truncated there.
Google Analytics-Nutzung nach Vorgaben der DSGVO
In order to use Google Analytics in a legally compliant manner, we fulfill the necessary requirements:
- Contract for commissioned data processing concluded
- IP anonymization activated
- Privacy policy updated
- Opt out cookies + link to browser plugin set
AV Agreement
We have concluded a so-called AV contract (order processing contract) with Google. With the validity of the GDPR, this is now also possible electronically in our Google Analytics account, directly in yours. The old procedure of printing it out and sending it to Google by post is therefore no longer necessary.
IP Anonymization
The following settings have been made on this page:
Activate Anonymize IP: This parameter is required by European Union law. We have left it activated.
Privacy policy updated
Privacy policy updatedThis privacy policy has been updated.
The data processing addendum has been accepted and released for this account contract. In addition, further services have been activated.
- Enable demographics and interest reports: This setting will add the demographics and remarketing features in the Google Analytics tracking code.
- Please make sure that demographics and remarketing is also active in your Google Analaytics account. For more information about remarketing, please refer to the Google Analaytics Documentation.
- Activate extended link attribution: Extended link attribution improves the accuracy of the in-page analysis reports. Links to the same URL are automatically differentiated based on link element IDs.
Email contact
If you contact us (e.g. via contact form or email), we will store your details in order to process the request and in the event that follow-up questions arise. This is also our legitimate interest in accordance with Art. 6 para. 1 sentence 1 f) GDPR.

We use the SSL (Secure Socket Layer) coding system, but would like to point out that data transmission on the Internet (e.g. when communicating by e‑mail) can have security gaps. Complete protection of data against access by third parties is not possible. To secure your data, we maintain technical and organizational security measures in accordance with Art. 32 GDPR, which we constantly adapt to the state of the art. We also do not guarantee that our service will be available at certain times; disruptions, interruptions or failures cannot be ruled out. The servers we use are carefully backed up on a regular basis.
Disclosure of data to third parties, no data transfer to non-EU countries
In principle, we only use your personal data within our company. If and to the extent that we involve third parties in the fulfillment of contracts (such as logistics service providers), they will only receive personal data to the extent that the transfer is necessary for the corresponding service. In the event that we outsource certain parts of data processing (“order processing”), we contractually oblige order processors to use personal data only in accordance with the requirements of data protection laws and to guarantee the protection of the rights of the data subject. Data transfer to bodies or persons outside the EU outside the cases mentioned in this declaration in section 2 does not take place and is not planned.
