**Data Protection**
**§ 1. General**
Your personal data (e.g., title, name, address, email address, telephone number, bank details, credit card number) will only be processed by us in accordance with the provisions of German data protection law and the data protection law of the European Union (EU). Additionally, besides the processing purposes, recipients, legal bases, and storage periods, the following regulations also inform you about your rights and the person responsible for your data processing. This data protection declaration applies only to our website. If you are forwarded to other pages via links on our pages, please inform yourself there about the respective handling of your data.
**§ 2. Data Processing to Fulfill the Contract**
**(1) Purpose of Processing**
Your personal data, which you provide to us during the ordering process, are required to conclude a contract with us. You are not obliged to provide your personal data. However, we cannot send you the goods without giving your address. For some payment methods, we need the necessary payment data to pass them on to a payment service provider commissioned by us. The processing of your data entered in the ordering process is therefore carried out for the purpose of fulfilling the contract.
If you send us an inquiry by email, using a contact form, etc. before concluding the contract, we will process the data received in this way to carry out pre-contractual measures, such as your questions about our products.
**(2) Legal Basis**
The legal basis for this processing is Article 6 (1) b) GDPR.
**(3) Recipient Categories**
Payment service providers, shipping service providers, hosting providers, if necessary merchandise management system, if necessary suppliers (dropshipping).
**(4) Storage Period**
We store the data required to process the contract until the statutory warranty and, if applicable, contractual guarantee periods have expired.
We store the data required under commercial and tax law for the periods specified by law, usually ten years (cf. § 257 HGB, § 147 AO).
The data processed to carry out pre-contractual measures will be deleted as soon as the measures have been carried out, and a contract is clearly not concluded.
**§ 3. Comments**
**(1) Purpose of Processing**
It is possible to write a comment. Your data (e.g., name/pseudonym, email address, website) will then only be processed for the purpose of publishing your comment.
**(2) Legal Basis**
The legal basis for this processing is Article 6 (1) f) GDPR.
**(3) Legitimate Interest**
Our legitimate interest is the public exchange of user opinions on certain topics and products. The publication serves, among other things, for transparency and opinion-forming. Your interest in data protection is preserved because you can publish your comment under a pseudonym.
**(4) Storage Period**
A specific storage period is not provided. You can request the deletion of your comment at any time.
**(5) RIGHT TO OBJECT**
You have the right to object at any time to data processing that is based on Art. 6 Para. 1 f) GDPR and is not used for direct advertising for reasons that arise from your particular situation.
In the case of direct mail, however, you can object to processing at any time without giving reasons.
