If you have consented to data processing, I process your personal data on the basis of Art. 6 (1) lit. a GDPR or Art. 9 (2) lit. a GDPR if special categories of data according to Art. 9 (1) GDPR are processed. In the case of explicit consent to the transfer of personal data to third countries, data processing is also carried out on the basis of Art. 49 (1) lit. a GDPR.

Under certain circumstances, it may be necessary to transmit personal data to external parties. I only pass on personal data to external parties if this is necessary to fulfill the service you have requested in accordance with the order agreement, if I am legally obliged to do so (e.g. transfer of data to tax authorities), if I have a legitimate interest in the transfer according to Art. 6 (1) lit. f GDPR, or if another legal basis permits data transfer.

THE RESPECTIVE LEGAL BASIS ON WHICH PROCESSING IS BASED CAN BE FOUND IN THIS PRIVACY POLICY. IF YOU OBJECT, I WILL NO LONGER PROCESS YOUR RELEVANT PERSONAL DATA UNLESS I CAN DEMONSTRATE COMPELLING LEGITIMATE GROUNDS FOR PROCESSING THAT OUTWEIGH YOUR INTERESTS, RIGHTS, AND FREEDOMS, OR THE PROCESSING SERVES TO ASSERT, EXERCISE OR DEFEND LEGAL CLAIMS (OBJECTION ACCORDING TO ART. 21 (1) GDPR).

​

Right to Data Portability

If you request the direct transfer of data to another controller, this will only be done to the extent technically feasible.

​

Disclosure, Deletion  and Correction

As permitted by law, you have the right to be provided with information free of charge at any time about your stored personal data, its origin and recipients, and the purpose of data processing, and if necessary, the right to have this data corrected or deleted. You can contact me any time should you have questions about this or other questions about personal data.

​

Right to Restriction of Processing

​

You have the right to request restriction of the processing of your personal data. You can contact me at any time for this purpose. The right to restriction of processing exists in the following cases:

​

  • If you contest the accuracy of your stored personal data, I usually need time to verify this. For the duration of the review, you have the right to request restriction of the processing of your personal data.

  • If the processing of your personal data was/is unlawful, you can request restriction of data processing instead of deletion.

  • If I no longer need your personal data, but you need it to exercise, defend or establish legal claims, you have the right to request restriction of the processing of your personal data instead of deletion.

  • If you have objected to processing pursuant to Art. 21 (1) GDPR, your as well as my interests must be weighed. As long as it has not yet been determined whose interests prevail, you have the right to request restriction of the processing of your personal data.

​​

If you have restricted the processing of your personal data, this data – with the exception of storage – shall only be processed with your consent or for the establishment, exercise or defence of legal claims or for the protection of the rights of another natural or legal person or for reasons of important public interest of the European Union or a Member State.

4. Data Collection on This Website

​

Cookies

​

My website uses so-called "cookies". Cookies are small data files and do not cause any damage to your device. They are either stored temporarily for the duration of a browser session (session cookies) or permanently (permanent cookies) on your device. Session cookies are automatically deleted after your visit ends. Permanent cookies remain stored on your device until you delete them yourself or your web browser deletes them automatically.

​

Cookies can be set by my website (first-party cookies) or by third-party companies (so-called third-party cookies). Third-party cookies enable the integration of certain services from third-party companies within websites (e.g. cookies for processing payment services).

​

Cookies serve different purposes. Many cookies are technically necessary because certain website functions would not work without them (e.g. displaying videos). Other cookies can be used to analyse user behavior.

​

Cookies that are necessary to carry out the electronic communication process, to provide certain functions you have requested (e.g. for the shopping cart function) or to optimise the website (e.g. cookies for analysing the web audience) (necessary cookies) are stored on the basis of Art. 6 (1) lit. f GDPR, unless a different legal basis is specified. The website operator has a legitimate interest in storing necessary cookies for the technically correct and optimised provision of its services. If consent has been requested for the storage of cookies and comparable recognition technologies, the processing is carried out exclusively on the basis of this consent (Art. 6 (1) lit. a GDPR and § 25 (1) TTDSG); consent can be revoked at any time.

​

You can configure your browser to inform you about the use of cookies and only allow cookies on a case-by-case basis, exclude the acceptance of cookies for certain cases or in general, and activate the automatic deletion of cookies when closing the browser. If cookies are disabled, the functionality of this website may be limited.

​

This Privacy Policy inform you about the cookies and services used on this website.

​

Contact Form

​

If you send me inquiries via the contact form, I will store your information from the inquiry form, including the contact details you provided there, for the purpose of processing the inquiry and in case of follow-up questions. I will not pass on this data without your consent.

​

This data is processed based on Art. 6 (1) lit. b GDPR, if your inquiry is related to the fulfillment of a contract or if it is necessary for the implementation of pre-contractual measures. In all other cases, the processing is based on my legitimate interest in the effective processing of inquiries directed to me (Art. 6 (1) lit. f GDPR) or on your consent (Art. 6 (1) lit. a GDPR) if this has been requested; consent can be revoked at any time.

​

I will store the data you enter in the contact form until you request deletion, revoke your consent to storage or until the purpose for data storage no longer applies (e.g. after your inquiry has been processed). Mandatory legal provisions – particularly retention periods – remain unaffected.

​

Inquiry by Email or Telephone

​

If you contact me by email or telephone, I will store and process your inquiry, including all resulting personal data (name, nature of inquiry), for the purpose of processing your request. I will not pass on this data without your consent.

​

The data is processed based on Art. 6 (1) lit. b GDPR, if your inquiry is related to the fulfillment of a contract or if it is necessary for the implementation of pre-contractual measures. In all other cases, the processing is based on my legitimate interest in the effective processing of inquiries directed to me (Art. 6 (1) lit. f GDPR) or on your consent (Art. 6 (1) lit. a GDPR), if this has been requested; consent can be revoked at any time.

​

I will store the data you provide to me via contact inquiries until you request deletion, revoke your consent to storage or until the purpose for data storage no longer applies (e.g. after processing your request has been completed). Mandatory legal provisions – particularly statutory retention periods – remain unaffected.
