Thank you for your interest in our online shop. Protecting your privacy is very important to us. Below, we will provide you with detailed information about how we handle your data. Your data is processed on the basis of the GDPR and in accordance with § 165 (3) TKG (Austria).
1. Access Data and Hosting
You may visit our websites without providing any personal details. Each time a webpage is accessed, the web server automatically stores a so-called server log file only, which, for example, contains the name of the requested file, your IP address, the date and time of access, the amount of data transferred and the requesting provider (access data), and documents the access. These access data are evaluated exclusively for the purpose of ensuring the smooth operation of the site and improving our offering. This serves to safeguard our legitimate interests, which prevail in the context of a balancing of interests, in the correct presentation of our offering in accordance with Article 6(1) sentence 1 point (f) GDPR. All access data are deleted no later than one month after the end of your visit to our site. All access data are processed only for as long as is necessary to achieve the processing purposes stated above.
1.1 Hosting
The services for hosting and displaying the website are provided in part by our service providers as part of processing on our behalf. Unless otherwise explained 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.
Our service providers are located and/or use servers in the following countries for which the European Commission has determined by decision that an adequate level of data protection exists: Canada, New Zealand, Japan, the United Kingdom, the United States.
The adequacy decision for the United States applies as the basis for transfers to third countries, provided that the respective service provider is certified. Until our service providers are certified, data transfers continue to rely on this basis: the European Commission’s Standard Contractual Clauses.
Our service providers are located and/or use servers in the following countries: Australia, India, Singapore.
No adequacy decision of the European Commission exists for these countries. Our cooperation with them is based on the following safeguards: the European Commission’s Standard Contractual Clauses.

For the purpose of shorter loading times, we use a so-called Content Delivery Network (“CDN”) for some of our services. With this service, content, e.g. large media files, is delivered via regionally distributed servers of external CDN service providers. Therefore, access data are processed on the servers of the service providers. Our service providers act on our behalf within the scope of data processing agreements.
Our service providers are located and/or use servers in countries outside the EU and EEA. No adequacy decision of the European Commission exists for these countries.
Our cooperation with them is based on the European Commission’s Standard Contractual Clauses.

For the purpose of contract performance (including enquiries about and handling of any existing claims arising from warranty rights, service disruptions and rights of withdrawal, as well as any statutory update obligations) in accordance with Article 6(1) sentence 1 point (b) GDPR, we collect personal data if you voluntarily provide them to us as part of your order. Mandatory fields are marked as such because, in these cases, we necessarily require these data for contract performance and cannot dispatch the order without them. Which data are collected can be seen from the respective input forms.
Further information on the processing of your data, in particular on the transfer to our service providers for the purposes of order, payment and shipping processing, can be found in the following sections of this privacy policy. After complete performance of the contract, your data will be restricted for further processing and deleted after expiry of the retention periods required under tax and commercial law in accordance with Article 6(1) sentence 1 point (c) GDPR, unless you have expressly consented to further use of your data in accordance with Article 6(1) sentence 1 point (a) GDPR or we reserve the right to further use data as permitted by law and about which we inform you in this policy.

4. Data Processing for Payment Handling
When handling payments in our online shop, we work with the following partners: technical service providers, credit institutions and payment service providers.
4.1 Data Processing for Transaction Handling
Depending on the selected payment method, we pass on the data necessary for handling the payment transaction to our technical service providers, the commissioned credit institutions or the selected payment service provider, insofar as this is necessary for payment processing. This serves the fulfilment of the contract in accordance with Article 6(1) sentence 1 point (b) GDPR. In some cases, the payment service providers collect the data required for payment processing themselves, e.g. on their own website or via a technical integration in the ordering process. In this respect, the privacy policy of the respective payment service provider applies.
Depending on the selected payment method, data transfers to third countries outside the EU/EEA may occur for which the European Commission has determined by decision that an adequate level of data protection exists. Where data transfers to third countries outside the EU/EEA take place for which the European Commission has not issued an adequacy decision, our cooperation is based on the European Commission’s Standard Contractual Clauses.
If you have any questions about our payment processing partners or the basis of our cooperation with them, please use the contact option specified in this privacy policy.

Where appropriate, we provide the above-mentioned service providers with further data, which they use together with the data necessary for handling the payment for the purposes of fraud prevention and the optimisation of our payment processes (e.g. invoicing, handling disputed payments, support for accounting). In accordance with Article 6(1) sentence 1 point (f) GDPR, this serves to safeguard our legitimate interests, which prevail in the context of a balancing of interests, in protecting ourselves against fraud and in efficient payment management.

Google Analytics
For the purpose of website analysis, Google Analytics automatically collects and stores data (IP address, time of visit, device and browser information and information about your use of our website), from which user profiles are created using pseudonyms. Cookies may be used for this purpose. If you visit our website from the EU, your IP address is stored on a server located in the EU in order to derive location data and then deleted immediately before the traffic is forwarded to other Google servers for processing. Data processing is carried out on the basis of a data processing agreement with Google.
For the purpose of optimised marketing of our website, we have activated the data-sharing settings for “Google products and services”. This enables Google to access the data collected and processed by Google Analytics and subsequently use them to improve Google services. Data sharing with Google within the scope of these data-sharing settings is based on an additional agreement between controllers. We have no influence over the subsequent data processing by Google.
For the purpose of optimised marketing of our website, we use the so-called user ID function. With the help of this function, we can assign your interaction data from one or more sessions on our online presence a unique, permanent ID and thus analyse your user behaviour across devices and sessions.
For web analysis, the extension function Google Signals of Google Analytics enables so-called cross-device tracking. Provided that your internet-enabled devices are linked to your Google account and you have activated the “personalised advertising” setting in your Google account, Google can create reports about your usage behaviour (in particular the cross-device user numbers), even if you change your device. In this respect, we do not process any personal data; we merely receive statistics created on the basis of Google Signals.
For web analysis and advertising purposes, the extension function of Google Analytics enables the so-called DoubleClick cookie to recognise your browser when visiting other websites. Google will use this information to compile reports on website activity and to provide further services related to website use.
If you do not give us your consent in accordance with Article 6(1) sentence 1 point (a) GDPR for the use of Google Analytics, no cookies will be stored on or read from your device. The data processing described in the preceding paragraphs will not take place. In order to close gaps in web analysis by means of behavioural and conversion modelling, pings containing data (user agent, information about your consent behaviour, screen resolution, IP address) are sent to Google.
Google Ads
For advertising purposes in Google search results as well as on third-party websites, the so-called Google Remarketing cookie is set 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 and information about 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 “personalised advertising” setting in your Google account. If, in this case, you are logged into Google while visiting our website, Google uses your data together with Google Analytics data to create and define audience lists for cross-device remarketing.
For website analysis and event tracking, we use Google Ads conversion tracking to measure your subsequent usage behaviour if you have reached our website via a Google Ads advertisement. Cookies may be used for this purpose and data (IP address, time of visit, device and browser information and information about your use of our website on the basis of events specified by us, such as visiting a website or signing up for a newsletter) may be collected, from which user profiles are created using pseudonyms.
If you do not give us your consent in accordance with Article 6(1) sentence 1 point (a) GDPR for the use of Google Ads, no cookies will be stored on or read from your device. The data processing described in the preceding paragraphs will not take place. In order to close gaps in web analysis by means of behavioural and conversion modelling, pings containing data (user agent, information about your consent behaviour, screen resolution, IP address, page URL, information about ad clicks in URL parameters) are sent to Google. Your IP address is used to derive the IP country.
Google Maps
For the visual display of geographical information, Google Maps collects data about your use of the Maps functions, in particular the IP address and location data, transmits these to Google and then processes them. We have no influence over this subsequent data processing.
Google reCAPTCHA
For the purpose of protection against misuse of our web forms and against spam by automated software (so-called bots), Google reCAPTCHA collects data (IP address, time of visit, browser information and information about your use of our website) and analyses your use of our website by means of JavaScript and cookies. In addition, other cookies stored in your browser by Google services are evaluated. Data processing is carried out on the basis of a data processing agreement with Google. Users of a customer who access websites protected by reCAPTCHA are no longer subject to Google’s privacy policy and terms of use.
Google Tag Manager
By means of Google Tag Manager, we are able to manage various codes and services on our website. When implementing the individual tags, Google may also process personal data under certain circumstances (e.g. IP address, online identifiers including cookies). Data processing is carried out on the basis of a data processing agreement with Google.
By using Google Tag Manager, various services/technologies can be integrated.
If you do not wish certain tracking services to be used and have therefore deactivated them, the deactivation remains in place for all affected tracking tags integrated by Google Tag Manager.
7.2 Use of Meta Services
Use of Meta Pixel

8. Integration of the Trusted Shops Trustbadge / Other Widgets
Trusted Shops widgets are integrated on this website to display Trusted Shops services (e.g. quality seal, collected reviews).
This serves to safeguard our legitimate interests, which prevail in the context of a balancing of interests, in optimal marketing by enabling secure shopping in accordance with Article 6(1) sentence 1 point (f) GDPR. The Trustbadge and the services advertised with it are provided by Trusted Shops SE, Subbelrather Str. 15C, 50823 Cologne (“Trusted Shops”), with whom we are jointly responsible under data protection law pursuant to Article 26 GDPR. In the context of these data protection notices, we inform you below about the essential contractual contents pursuant to Article 26(2) GDPR.
Within the framework of the joint controllership existing between us and Trusted Shops SE, please preferably contact Trusted Shops using the contact details stated in the data protection information if you have data protection questions or wish to exercise your rights. Regardless of this, you may always contact the controller of your choice. If necessary, your enquiry will then be forwarded to the other controller for response.
Data Processing When Integrating the Trustbadge / Other Widgets
The Trustbadge is provided by a US CDN provider (content delivery network). An adequate level of data protection is ensured in each case by an adequacy decision of the European Commission, which can be accessed for the United States here. Service providers used in the United States are generally certified under the EU-U.S. Data Privacy Framework (DPF). Further information is available here. Where service providers used are not certified under the DPF, Standard Contractual Clauses have been concluded as an appropriate safeguard.
When the Trustbadge is accessed, the web server automatically stores a so-called server log file which also contains your IP address, the date and time of access, the amount of data transferred and the requesting provider (access data), and documents the access. The IP address is anonymised immediately after collection so that the stored data cannot be attributed to you personally. The anonymised data are used in particular for statistical purposes and for error analysis.
Data Processing after Completion of an Order
After completion of an order, order information (order total, order number, where applicable purchased product) and your email address hashed by means of a one-way cryptographic function are transmitted to Trusted Shops. The legal basis is Article 6(1) sentence 1 point (f) GDPR. This serves to verify whether you are already registered for Trusted Shops services and is therefore necessary to fulfil our and Trusted Shops’ overriding legitimate interests in providing the transaction-related review services linked to the specific order in accordance with Article 6(1) sentence 1 point (f) GDPR. If registration exists, further processing is carried out in accordance with the contractual agreement concluded between you and Trusted Shops. If you are not yet registered for the services, you will subsequently be given the opportunity to do so for the first time. Further processing after registration is also governed by the contractual agreement with Trusted Shops. If you are not yet registered for the services, you will subsequently be given the opportunity to grant your consent to receive review invitations. If you do not grant this consent, all transmitted data will be automatically deleted by Trusted Shops and personal reference will then no longer be possible.
Trusted Shops uses service providers in the areas of hosting, monitoring and logging. The legal basis is Article 6(1) point (f) GDPR for the purpose of ensuring trouble-free operation. Processing may take place in third countries (USA, United Kingdom and Israel). An adequate level of data protection is ensured in each case by an adequacy decision of the European Commission, which can be accessed for the United States here, for the United Kingdom here and for Israel here. Service providers used in the United States are generally certified under the EU-U.S. Data Privacy Framework (DPF). Further information is available here. Where service providers used are not certified under the DPF, Standard Contractual Clauses have been concluded as an appropriate safeguard.
