Thank you for visiting our online shop. Protection of your privacy is very important to us. Below you will find extensive information about how we handle your data.
You may visit our website without revealing any personal information. With every visit on the website, the web server stores automatically only a so-called server log file which contains e.g. the name of the requested file, your IP address, the date and time of the request, the volume of data transferred and the requesting provider (access data), and documents the request. These access data are analysed exclusively for the purpose of ensuring the smooth operation of the website and improving our offer. This serves according to Art. 6 (1) 1 lit. f GDPR the protection of our legitimate interests in the proper presentation of our offer that are overriding in the process of balancing of interests. All access data are deleted no later than one month after the end of your visit on our website.
The services for hosting and displaying the website are partly provided by our service providers on the basis of processing on our behalf. Unless otherwise stated in this privacy policy, all access data and all data collected in forms provided for this purpose on this website are processed on their servers. If you have any questions about our service providers and the basis of our cooperation with them, please use the contact option described in this privacy policy.
For the purpose of a shorter loading time, we use for some offers a so-called Content Delivery Network ("CDN") . This service provides content, e.g. large media files, via regionally distributed servers of external CDN service providers. For this reason, access data will be processed on the servers of these service providers. We engage our service providers on the basis of processing on our behalf. Our service providers are located and/or use servers in countries outside the EU and the EEA. For these countries there is no adequacy decision by the European Commission. Our cooperation is based on standard data protection clauses adopted by the European Commission. If you have any questions about our service providers and the basis of our cooperation with them, please use the contact option described in this privacy policy.2. Data processing for contract processing and for contacting us.
For the purpose of performing the contract (including enquiries regarding the processing of any existing warranty and performance fault claims as well as any statutory updating obligations) in accordance with Art. 6 (1) (b) GDPR, we collect personal data if you provide it to us voluntarily as part of your order. Mandatory fields are marked as such, as in these cases we necessarily need the data to process the contract and we cannot send the order without their specification. Which data is collected can be seen from the respective input forms.
Further information on the processing of your data, in particular on the forwarding of the data to our service providers for the purpose of order, payment and shipping, can be found in the following sections of this privacy policy. After complete processing of the contract, your data will be restricted for further processing and deleted after expiry of the retention periods under tax and commercial law in accordance with Art. 6 (1) (c) GDPR, unless you have expressly consented to further use of your data in accordance with Art. 6 (1) (a) GDPR or we reserve the right to use data beyond this, which is permitted by law and about which we inform you in this privacy policy.

We ask you to refrain from providing sensitive data (e.g. health-related information such as illnesses) in such free text fields.
We use the data you provide for booking appointments in accordance with art. 6 (1) 1 b GDPR. After complete processing of the booked appointment, your data will be restricted for further processing and deleted after expiry of any retention periods under tax and commercial law pursuant to art. 6 (1) 1 c GDPR, unless you have expressly consented to further use of your data pursuant to art. 6 (1) 1 a GDPR or we reserve the right to use data beyond this, which is permitted by law and about which we inform you in this policy.

Information on third country transfer (data transfer to third countries)
We use technology from service providers on our website whose headquarters and/or server locations may be in third countries outside the EU or EEA. If there is no EU Commission adequacy decision for this country, an adequate level of data protection must be ensured by means of other suitable guarantees.
Suitable guarantees in the form of contractually agreed standard contractual clauses of the EU Commission or binding internal data protection rules (Binding Corporate Rules) are possible in principle, but require a prior review by the contracting parties as to whether an adequate level of protection can be guaranteed. According to the case law of the ECJ, it may be necessary to take additional protective measures for this purpose.
In principle, we have agreed the standard data protection clauses issued by the EU Commission with the technology providers we use who process personal data in a third country. Where possible, we also agree on additional safeguards to ensure that sufficient data protection is guaranteed in the third countries without an adequacy decision.
Notwithstanding this, it may happen that, despite all contractual and technical measures, the level of data protection in the third country does not correspond to that in the EU. For these cases, we ask you, if necessary, in the context of cookie consent, for your consent in accordance with Art. 49 (1) lit. a GDPR to the transfer of your personal data to a third country.
In particular, there is a risk that local authorities in the third country may not have sufficiently limited access rights to your personal data from a European data protection perspective, that we as the data exporter or you as the data subject may not be aware of this and/or that you may not have sufficient legal remedies to prevent and/or take action against such access.
In particular, the following countries are currently among the third countries without an adequacy decision by the EU Commission (example enumeration):
- USA
- China
- Russia
- Taiwan
You can find out which third countries we transfer data to in the data protection notices for the respective tool and/or service we use for consent management/Consent Manager Platform (CMP).
If you have given your consent in accordance with Art. 6 (1) (a) GDPR, we use the following cookies and other third-party technologies on our website. The data collected in this context will be deleted after the relevant purpose has been fulfilled and we have ended the use of the respective technology. You can withdraw your consent at any time with effect for the future. Further information on your withdrawal options can be found in the section "cookies and further technologies". Further information including the legal basis for data processing can be found within the respective technologies. If you have any questions about our service providers and the basis of our cooperation with them, please use the contact option described in this privacy policy.
We use the following technologies of Google Ireland Ltd, Gordon House, Barrow Street, Dublin 4, Ireland ("Google"). The information automatically collected by Google technologies about your use of our website is usually transferred to a server of Google LLC, 1600 Amphitheatre Parkway Mountain View, CA 94043, USA and stored there. There is no adequacy decision with respect to the USA by the European Commission. Our cooperation is based on standard data protection clauses adopted by the European Commission. Unless otherwise specified for the specific technologies, data processing is based on an agreement concluded for the respective technology between jointly responsible parties in accordance with Art. 26 GDPR. Further information about data processing by Google can be found in Google's privacy policy.
Google Analytics
For the purpose of website analysis, Google Analytics automatically collects and stores data (IP address, time of visit, device and browser information as well as information on your use of our website), from which usage profiles are created using pseudonyms. Cookies may be used for this purpose. If you visit our website from the EU, your IP address will be stored on a server located in the EU to derive location data and then deleted immediately before the traffic is forwarded to further Google servers for processing. The data processing is carried out on the basis of an order processing agreement by Google.
For the purposes of optimized marketing of our website, we use the so-called user ID function. With the help of this function, we can assign a unique, permanent ID to your interaction data for one or more sessions on our websites and thus analyze your user behavior across devices and sessions.
Google Ads
For advertising purposes in the Google search results as well as on the websites of third parties, the so-called Google Remarketing Cookie is used when you visit our website, which automatically enables interest-based advertising through the collection and processing of data (IP address, time of visit, device and browser information as well as information on your use of our website), by means of a pseudonymous cookie ID and on the basis of the pages you visit. Any further data processing only takes place if you have activated the setting "personalised advertising" in your Google account. In this case, if you are logged into Google while visiting our website, Google will use your data together with Google Analytics data to create and define target group lists for cross-device remarketing.
Google Maps
For the visual representation of geographical information, Google Maps collects data on your use of the Maps functions, in particular the IP address and location data, and transmits this data to Google and then processes it by Google. We have no influence on this subsequent data processing.
Google Fonts
For the purpose of a uniform presentation of the contents on our website, data (IP address, time of visit, device and browser information) are collected by the script code "Google Fonts", transmitted to Google and then processed by Google. We have no influence on this subsequent data processing.
Google Tag Manager
By means of the Google Tag Manager, we can manage various codes and services on our website. When implementing the individual tags, Google may also process personal data (e.g. IP address, online identifiers (including cookies)). The data processing is carried out on the basis of an order processing agreement by Google.
By using the Google Tag Manager, a simplified integration of various services/technologies can be achieved.
If you do not wish to use individual tracking services and have therefore deactivated them, the deactivation remains in place for all affected tracking tags that are integrated by the Google Tag Manager.
YouTube Video Plugin
In order to integrate third party content, data (IP address, time of visit, device and browser information) are collected via the YouTube Video Plugin in the expanded data protection mode used by us, transmitted to Google and then processed by Google only when you play a video.
We use the technologies of Microsoft Ireland Operations Ltd., One Microsoft Place, South County Business Park, Leopardstown, Dublin 18, D18 P521, Ireland (hereafter "Microsoft"). The data processing is carried out on the basis of an agreement between jointly responsible parties in accordance with Art. 26 GDPR. The information automatically collected by Microsoft technologies about your use of our website is usually transferred to a server of Microsoft Corporation, One Microsoft Way, Redmond, WA 98052-6399, USA and stored there. There is no adequacy decision for the United States by the European Commission. Our cooperation is based on standard data protection clauses adopted by the European Commission. For more information about Microsoft's data processing practices, please see Microsoft's privacy policy.
For website analytics and event tracking purposes, we use Microsoft Advertising Universal Event Tracking (UET) to measure your subsequent usage behavior when you arrive on our website via a Microsoft Advertising ad, from which usage profiles are generated using pseudonyms. For this purpose, cookies may be used and data (IP address, time of visit, device and browser information as well as information on your use of our website based on events specified by us, such as a visit to a website or newsletter registration) may be collected, from which user profiles are created using pseudonyms. As long as your Internet-enabled devices are linked to your Microsoft account and you have not disabled the "Interest-based Advertising" setting in your Microsoft account, Microsoft can generate reports on usage behavior (especially cross-device user numbers), even if you change your device, so-called "cross-device tracking". In this respect, we do not process personal data, we only receive statistics based on Microsoft UET.
Microsoft Clarity
Our website uses the services of Microsoft Clarity to better understand the experiences of our users and to optimise the services offered on this website. Clarity's technology helps us gain a better understanding of our users' experiences – for example, how much time users spend on which pages, how far they scroll and which links or fields are clicked on particularly often. Feedback from our users enables us to more precisely tailor our services. Clarity uses cookies and other technologies to collect information about the behaviour of our users and their end devices, in particular the IP address of the device (recorded and stored exclusively in anonymised form), screen size, device type, information about the browser used, and location (country only). Clarity stores this information in a pseudonymised user profile; this data is retained for 1 year. The information is not used by Clarity or by us to identify individual users, nor is it merged with other data about individual users.

Use of Facebook Pixel
We use the Facebook pixel within the framework of the technologies of Meta Platforms Ireland Ltd., 4 Grand Canal Square, Dublin 2, Ireland (hereafter („Facebook (by Meta)“ or “Meta Platforms Ireland“) as described below. The Facebook pixel is used to automatically collect and store data (IP address, time of visit, device and browser information as well as information on your use of our website based on events specified by us, such as a visit to a website or newsletter registration), from which user profiles are created using pseudonyms. As part of the so-called advanced matching, information is also collected and stored hashed for matching purposes, with which individuals can be identified (e.g. names, e-mail addresses and telephone numbers). For this purpose, a cookie is automatically set by the Facebook pixel when you visit our website, which automatically enables recognition of your browser when visiting other websites by means of a pseudonymous cookie ID. Facebook (by Meta) will combine this information with other data from your Facebook account and use it to compile reports on website activities and to provide other services associated with website use, in particular personalised and group-based advertising. We have no influence on data processing by Facebook and only receive statistics based on Facebook pixels. The information automatically collected by Facebook (by Meta) technologies about your use of our website is usually transferred to a server of Meta Platforms, Inc., 1 Hacker Way, Menlo Park, California 94025, USA and stored there. There is no adequacy decision for the United States by the European Commission. If the data transfer to the USA falls within the scope of our responsibility, our cooperation is based on standard data protection clauses of the European Commission. Further information about data processing by Facebook can be found in Facebook 's (by Meta) privacy policy.
Facebook Analyse
As part of the Facebook business tools, statistics created via Facebook pixels about your use of our website enable us to analyse visitor activity on the website. The data processing is based on a data processing agreement with Facebook (by Meta). The analysis serves the optimal presentation and marketing of our website.
Facebook Ads
We use Facebook Ads to promote this website on Facebook (by Meta) and other platforms. We determine the parameters of the respective advertising campaign. Facebook (by Meta) is responsible for the exact implementation, in particular the decision on the placement of the ads with individual users. Unless otherwise specified for the individual technologies, data processing is based on an arrangement between joint controllers in accordance with Art. 26 GDPR. The joint controllership is limited to the collection of data and its transmission to Meta Platforms Ireland. The subsequent data processing by Meta Platforms Ireland is not covered by this arrangement.
Based on the statistics about visitor activity on our website created via Facebook pixels, we operate group-based advertising on Facebook (by Meta) via Facebook Custom Audience by determining the characteristics of the respective target group. As part of the advanced matching (see above) that takes place to determine the respective target group, Facebook (by Meta) acts as our data processor.
On the basis of the pseudonym cookie ID used by the Facebook pixel and the collected data about your usage behavior on our website, we operate personalized advertising via Facebook Pixel Remarketing.
Via Facebook Pixel Conversions we measure your subsequent usage behavior for web analytics and event tracking purposes if you have reached our website via a Facebook Ads ad. The data processing is based on a data processing agreement with Facebook (by Meta).
If you give us your consent, we use the technologies of the company Emarsys eMarketing Systems AG, Märzstraße 1, 1150 Vienna, Austria to personalise our website and newsletter content by creating user profiles using the Emarsys Marketing Cloud. For this purpose, all data collected with the Emarsys Web Extend database, both through JavaScript commands and through cookies, is stored.
For visitors who have registered for the newsletter, our website uses JavaScript commands to collect browsing and purchase data. This data is used to enrich your customer profile and provide you with a personalised experience at all our points of contact. In addition, we store the following personal data in our Emarsys CRM suite and use this data for targeting and profiling in the context of our website & newsletter:
- Email address
- Title
- Name
- Date of birth
- IP address
- Order data
In connection with the use of the Emarsys Marketing Cloud, your data may be synchronised through Google and Facebook. This may also result in your data being processed outside Europe. Taking into account the risks mentioned (see the sections on Google and Facebook in this Privacy Policy), we only use Emarsys if you also consent to your data potentially being transferred to third countries without an adequate level of protection. In some cases, the third countries in which data centres are located or from which processing is carried out do not have an adequate level of data protection on the basis of a decision by the European Commission (a list of the so-called safe third countries can be found at: https://commission.europa.eu/law/law-topic/data-protection/international-dimension-data-protection/adequacy-decisions_en). The USA, for example, is not currently considered a safe third country. The transfer to third countries without an adequate level of protection is associated with risks for your personal data, especially since it cannot be ruled out that US authorities access the data in the event of a transfer to the USA. These risks cannot be excluded solely by the conclusion of standard contractual clauses between us and the processor or data controller in the third country. Nevertheless, Google and Facebook take security measures to ensure the protection of your personal data (see the sections on Google and Facebook in this Privacy Policy).
Please take the aforementioned circumstances into account when granting your consent.
We only conduct automated data processing in this respect with the aim of evaluating certain personal aspects (profiling). We analyse your data using statistical mathematical methods in order to tailor advertising to your individual interests.
After unsubscribing from the newsletter, we will stop sending you the newsletter and delete your data; if you also have a customer account on our website, we will store your data for as long as your customer account exists. However, this only applies if we are not legally entitled to store data for specific purposes, including to defend against legal claims.

The Trustbadge is provided by a US-American CDN provider (content delivery network). An adequate level of data protection is ensured by standard data protection clauses and other contractual measures.
When the Trustbadge is called up, the web server automatically saves a so-called server log file, which also contains your IP address, the date and time of the call-up, the amount of data transferred and the requesting provider (access data) and the callup. Immediately after the data collection the IP address is anonymised so that the stored data cannot be assigned to you personally. The anonymised data are used in particular for statistical purposes and for error analysis.
After the order has been completed, order information (order total, order number, product purchased, if applicable) and your email address, which has been hashed using a cryptological one-way function, are transmitted to Trusted Shops. The legal basis for this processing is Art. 6 (1) (f) GDPR.
