8.3 Use of Payment Service Providers

Apple Pay

If you choose the payment method “Apple Pay” from Apple Distribution International (Apple), Hollyhill Industrial Estate, Hollyhill, Cork, Ireland, payment processing is carried out via the “Apple Pay” function of your device running iOS, watchOS or macOS by charging a payment card stored with “Apple Pay”. Apple Pay uses security functions integrated into the hardware and software of your device to protect your transactions. To authorize a payment, you must therefore enter a code previously defined by you and verify it using the “Face ID” or “Touch ID” function of your device.

For the purpose of payment processing, the information you provide during the order process, together with information about your order, is transmitted to Apple in encrypted form. Apple then encrypts this data again with a developer-specific key before the data is transmitted to the payment service provider of the payment card stored in Apple Pay for the purpose of carrying out the payment. The encryption ensures that only the website through which the purchase was made can access the payment data. After payment has been made, Apple sends your device account number and a transaction-specific dynamic security code to the originating website to confirm successful payment.

If personal data is processed during the transmissions described above, processing is carried out exclusively for the purpose of payment processing pursuant to Art. 6 para. 1 lit. b GDPR.

Apple stores anonymized transaction data, including the approximate purchase amount, the approximate date and time, and whether the transaction was successfully completed. Anonymization completely excludes any personal reference. Apple uses the anonymized data to improve “Apple Pay” and other Apple products and services.

If you use Apple Pay on the iPhone or Apple Watch to complete a purchase made via Safari on the Mac, the Mac and the authorization device communicate via an encrypted channel on Apple’s servers. Apple does not process or store any of this information in a format that can identify you personally. You can disable the ability to use Apple Pay on your Mac in the settings of your iPhone. Go to “Wallet & Apple Pay” and disable “Allow Payments on Mac”.

Further information on data protection with Apple Pay can be found at the following internet address: https://support.apple.com/de-de/HT203027

Google Pay

If you choose the payment method “Google Pay” from Google Ireland Limited, Gordon House, 4 Barrow St, Dublin, D04 E5W5, Ireland (“Google”), payment processing is carried out via the “Google Pay” application on your mobile device running at least Android 4.4 (“KitKat”) and equipped with NFC functionality by charging a payment card stored with Google Pay or a payment system verified there, such as PayPal. To authorize a payment via Google Pay in an amount exceeding EUR 25.00, your mobile device must first be unlocked using the respective verification measure set up, such as facial recognition, password, fingerprint or pattern.

For the purpose of payment processing, the information you provide during the order process, together with information about your order, is transmitted to Google. Google then transmits your payment information stored in Google Pay to the originating website in the form of a one-time transaction number, by means of which a completed payment is verified. This transaction number does not contain any information about the actual payment data of your payment methods stored with Google Pay, but is created and transmitted as a one-time valid numeric token. For all transactions via Google Pay, Google acts merely as an intermediary for processing the payment. The transaction is carried out exclusively between the user and the originating website by charging the payment method stored with Google Pay.

If personal data is processed during the transmissions described above, processing is carried out exclusively for the purpose of payment processing pursuant to Art. 6 para. 1 lit. b GDPR.

Google reserves the right to collect, store and evaluate certain transaction-specific information for each transaction made via Google Pay. This includes the date, time and amount of the transaction, merchant location and description, a description of the goods or services purchased provided by the merchant, photos you have attached to the transaction, the name and email address of the seller and buyer or sender and recipient, the payment method used, your description of the reason for the transaction and, where applicable, the offer associated with the transaction.

According to Google, this processing is carried out exclusively pursuant to Art. 6 para. 1 lit. f GDPR on the basis of the legitimate interest in proper accounting, verification of transaction data, and optimization and maintenance of the functionality of the Google Pay service.

Google also reserves the right to combine the processed transaction data with further information collected and stored by Google when using other Google services.

The terms of use for Google Pay can be found here:

In this case, your data is passed on exclusively for the purpose of payment processing with the provider and only to the extent necessary for this purpose.

If you select a payment method for which the provider makes an advance payment, such as purchase on account, installment purchase or direct debit, you will also be asked during the ordering process to provide certain personal data, including first and last name, street, house number, postal code, city, date of birth, email address, telephone number and, if applicable, data relating to an alternative payment method.

To safeguard our legitimate interest in determining the solvency of our customers, we forward this data to the provider for the purpose of a credit check pursuant to Art. 6 para. 1 lit. f GDPR. On the basis of the personal data provided by you as well as further data, such as shopping cart, invoice amount, order history and payment experience, the provider checks whether the payment option selected by you can be granted with regard to payment and/or default risks.

In addition to provider-internal criteria pursuant to Art. 6 para. 1 lit. f GDPR, identity and credit information from the following credit agencies may also be included in the decision within the scope of the application review:
https://cdn.klarna.com/1.0/shared/content/legal/terms/0/de_de/credit_rating_agencies

The credit report may contain probability values, so-called score values. Where score values are included in the result of the credit report, they are based on a scientifically recognized mathematical-statistical procedure. Among other things, but not exclusively, address data is included in the calculation of score values.

You may object to this processing of your data at any time by sending a message to us or to the provider. However, the provider may remain entitled to process your personal data if this is necessary for contractual payment processing.

To safeguard our legitimate interest in determining your solvency in such cases, we forward this data to the provider for the purpose of a credit check pursuant to Art. 6 para. 1 lit. f GDPR.

8.4 Electronic Withdrawal Function for Distance Selling Contracts

Consumers who conclude contracts on this website for which a statutory right of withdrawal exists have the option of declaring withdrawal via an electronic withdrawal function in accordance with the applicable withdrawal provisions.

For the provision of the electronic withdrawal function, we use a solution from the following provider: 401layers UG, Dorothea-Erxleben-Str. 1 a, D-40721 Hilden.

When using the withdrawal function, in addition to information for identifying the contract to be withdrawn, further personal information such as the consumer’s first and last name and email address must be provided or confirmed.

This information is initially collected by the provider on the basis of our legitimate interest in a user-friendly, stable and process-optimized solution pursuant to Art. 6 para. 1 lit. f GDPR, then used to confirm receipt of the withdrawal declaration by email on our behalf, and finally transmitted to us. We then process the transmitted information for the proper handling of the withdrawal pursuant to Art. 6 para. 1 lit. b GDPR and Art. 6 para. 1 lit. c GDPR on the basis of our legal obligation to provide an electronic withdrawal function for paid consumer distance selling contracts.

The information collected by the provider is routinely deleted after final processing of a withdrawal, provided that there are no statutory retention obligations to the contrary.

We have concluded a data processing agreement with the provider, which protects data processed within the scope of the withdrawal function and prohibits unauthorized disclosure to third parties.

Web Analytics Services

9.1 Google Analytics 4

This website uses Google Analytics 4, a web analytics service provided by Google Ireland Limited, Gordon House, 4 Barrow St, Dublin, D04 E5W5, Ireland (“Google”), which enables an analysis of your use of our website.

By default, when visiting the website, Google Analytics 4 sets cookies, which are small text modules stored on your device and which collect certain information. This information also includes your IP address, which, however, is shortened by Google by the last digits in order to exclude direct personal identification.

The information is transmitted to Google servers and further processed there. Transfers to Google LLC based in the USA are also possible.

Google uses the collected information on our behalf to evaluate your use of the website, compile reports on website activity for us, and provide other services related to website use and internet use. The IP address transmitted by your browser and shortened within the scope of Google Analytics is not combined with other Google data. The data collected within the scope of the use of Google Analytics 4 is stored for a period of two months and then deleted.

All processing described above, in particular the setting of cookies on the device used, is only carried out if you have given us your express consent pursuant to Art. 6 para. 1 lit. a GDPR.

Without your consent, Google Analytics 4 will not be used during your visit to the website. You can withdraw your consent at any time with effect for the future. To exercise your right of withdrawal, please deactivate this service via the “cookie consent tool” provided on the website.

We have concluded a data processing agreement with Google, which ensures the protection of the data of our website visitors and prohibits unauthorized disclosure to third parties.

https://policies.google.com/technologies/partner-sites

Demographic Features

Google Analytics 4 uses the special “demographic features” function and can create statistics that provide information about the age, gender and interests of website visitors. This is done by analyzing advertising and information from third-party providers. This allows target groups for marketing activities to be identified. However, the collected data cannot be assigned to a specific person and is deleted after being stored for a period of two months.

Google Signals

As an extension to Google Analytics 4, Google Signals may be used on this website to create cross-device reports. If you have enabled personalized ads and linked your devices to your Google account, Google may, subject to your consent to the use of Google Analytics pursuant to Art. 6 para. 1 lit. a GDPR, analyze your usage behavior across devices and create database models, including for cross-device conversions. We do not receive any personal data from Google, only statistics. If you wish to stop cross-device analysis, you can disable the “Personalized advertising” function in the settings of your Google account. To do so, follow the instructions on this page:

9.2 Shopify Analytics

This website uses the web analytics service of the following provider: Shopify International Limited, Victoria Buildings, 2nd Floor, 1-2 Haddington Road, Dublin 4, D04 XN32, Ireland.

Data is also transferred to: Shopify Inc., 150 Elgin St, Ottawa, ON K2P 1L4, Canada.

Using cookies and/or comparable technologies, such as tracking pixels, web beacons, and algorithms for reading device and browser information, the service collects and stores pseudonymized visitor data, including information about the device used, such as IP address and browser information, in order to evaluate it for statistical analyses of user behavior on our website and to create pseudonymized user profiles. Among other things, this makes it possible to evaluate movement patterns, so-called heatmaps, which show the duration of page visits and interactions with page content, such as text input, scrolling, clicks and mouse-overs. Pseudonymization generally excludes direct personal identification. Data is not combined with clear data about your person collected in any other way.

All processing described above, in particular reading or storing information on the device used, is only carried out if you have given us your express consent pursuant to Art. 6 para. 1 lit. a GDPR.

Retargeting/Remarketing and Conversion Tracking

Meta Pixel

Within our online offering, we use the “Meta Pixel” service from the following provider: Meta Platforms Ireland Limited, 4 Grand Canal Square, Dublin 2, Ireland (“Meta”).

If a user clicks on an advertisement placed by us on Facebook and/or Instagram, the URL of our linked page is extended by a parameter using “Meta Pixel”. After forwarding, this URL parameter is then entered into the user’s browser by a cookie set by our linked page itself.

This allows Meta, on the one hand, to determine visitors to our online offering as a target group for the display of advertisements, so-called “ads”. Accordingly, we use the service to display the Facebook and/or Instagram ads placed by us only to users who have also shown an interest in our online offering or who have certain characteristics, such as interests in certain topics or products determined on the basis of websites visited, which we transmit to Meta, so-called “Custom Audiences”.

On the other hand, “Meta Pixel” can be used to track whether users were redirected to our website after clicking on an advertisement and what actions they perform there, so-called “conversion tracking”.

The data collected is anonymous for us and therefore does not allow us to draw conclusions about the identity of users. However, the data is stored and processed by Meta, so that a connection to the respective user profile is possible and Meta may use the data for its own advertising purposes.

All processing described above, in particular the setting of cookies for reading information on the device used, is only carried out if you have given us your express consent pursuant to Art. 6 para. 1 lit. a GDPR. You can withdraw your consent at any time with effect for the future by deactivating this service in the “cookie consent tool” provided on the website.

We have concluded a data processing agreement with the provider, which ensures the protection of the data of our website visitors and prohibits unauthorized disclosure to third parties.

The information generated by Meta is generally transmitted to a Meta server and stored there; in this context, transmission to servers of Meta Platforms Inc. in the USA may also occur.

Website Functionalities

11.1 YouTube

This website uses plugins to display and play videos from the following provider: Google Ireland Limited, Gordon House, 4 Barrow St, Dublin, D04 E5W5, Ireland.

Data may also be transmitted to: Google LLC, USA.

When you access a page of our website that contains such a plugin, your browser establishes a direct connection to the provider’s servers at the latest when the video is played in order to load the content. In doing so, certain information, including your IP address, is transmitted to the provider.

If playback of embedded videos is started via the plugin, the provider also uses cookies to collect information about user behavior, create playback statistics and prevent abusive behavior.

If you are logged into a user account with the provider during your visit to the website, your data will be directly assigned to your account when you click on a video. If you do not want this assignment to your account, you must log out before clicking the playback button.

All aforementioned processing, in particular the setting of cookies for reading information on the device used, is only carried out if you have given us your express consent pursuant to Art. 6 para. 1 lit. a GDPR. You can withdraw your consent at any time with effect for the future by deactivating this service via the “cookie consent tool” provided on the website.

11.2 Judge.me

Graphic elements from the following provider are integrated into our website to display external customer reviews and/or an externally awarded quality seal: Judge.me Ltd., c/o Buckworths, 2nd Floor, 1-3 Worship Street, London, England, EC2A 2AB, United Kingdom.

When you access a page of our website that contains such graphic elements, your browser establishes a direct connection to the provider’s servers in order to load the elements properly. In doing so, certain browser information, including your IP address, is transmitted to the provider.

If personal data is also processed in this context, this is carried out pursuant to Art. 6 para. 1 lit. f GDPR on the basis of our legitimate interest in the optimal marketing of our offer and the appealing design of our website.

We have concluded a data processing agreement with the provider, which ensures the protection of the data of our website visitors and prohibits unauthorized disclosure to third parties.

Tools and Miscellaneous

Cookie Consent Tool

This website uses a so-called “cookie consent tool” to obtain effective user consent for cookies and cookie-based applications that require consent. The “cookie consent tool” is displayed to users when they access the site in the form of an interactive user interface, on which consent for certain cookies and/or cookie-based applications can be given by ticking boxes. By using the tool, all cookies/services requiring consent are only loaded if the respective user gives the corresponding consent by ticking the relevant boxes. This ensures that such cookies are only set on the user’s respective device if consent has been given.

The tool sets technically necessary cookies to store your cookie preferences. Personal user data is generally not processed in this context.

If, in individual cases, personal data such as the IP address is nevertheless processed for the purpose of storing, assigning or logging cookie settings, this is carried out pursuant to Art. 6 para. 1 lit. f GDPR on the basis of our legitimate interest in legally compliant, user-specific and user-friendly consent management for cookies and thus in the legally compliant design of our website.

The duration of storage of personal data is determined by the respective legal basis, the purpose of processing and, where applicable, additionally by the respective statutory retention period, such as retention periods under commercial and tax law.

If statutory retention periods exist for data processed within the framework of legal or quasi-legal obligations on the basis of Art. 6 para. 1 lit. b GDPR, this data will be routinely deleted after expiry of the retention periods, provided that it is no longer required for the performance or initiation of a contract and/or we no longer have a legitimate interest in further storage.

When personal data is processed on the basis of Art. 6 para. 1 lit. f GDPR, this data is stored until you exercise your right to object pursuant to Art. 21 para. 1 GDPR, unless we can demonstrate compelling legitimate grounds for processing that override your interests, rights and freedoms, or the processing serves the establishment, exercise or defense of legal claims.

When personal data is processed for the purpose of direct marketing on the basis of Art. 6 para. 1 lit. f GDPR, this data is stored until you exercise your right to object pursuant to Art. 21 para. 2 GDPR.

Unless otherwise stated in the other information in this policy regarding specific processing situations, stored personal data will otherwise be deleted when it is no longer necessary for the purposes for which it was collected or otherwise processed.
