DATA PRIVACY
In general, our website can be used without having to provide any personal data. Any personal data, such as names, home addresses or e-mail addresses, collected on our website is done so on a strictly voluntary basis, where possible. Such data provided will not be forwarded to a third party without your explicit permission.
We point out that the data transfer over the Internet (such as, communication by e-mail) can be subject to security vulnerabilities. Data cannot be completely protected against access by third parties.
The third-party use of contact details which have been published within the duty of publishing a legal notice for the distribution of unsolicited advertisements and information material is hereby expressly rejected. The providers of this website explicitly reserve the right to take legal action in the event of any unsolicited transmission of advertising information, for example in the form of spam mail.
COLLECTION, PROCESSING AND USE OF PERSONAL DATA
The personal data which you make available to us, for example when placing an order or via e-mail (for example your name and contact details), is only used for correspondence with you and only for the purpose for which you made that data available to us. We only give your data to the delivery company insofar as this is necessary for the delivery of the goods.
We confirm that we do not otherwise pass your data to third parties, unless we are required by law to do so or you have previously given your express permission. Insofar as we use the services of third parties for the implementation and management of processing procedures, the provisions of the Federal Data Protection Act (BDSG) are observed.
E-MAIL NEWSLETTER
If you have registered separately for our newsletter, your e-mail address will be used for our own marketing purposes until you unsubscribe from the newsletter. It is possible to unsubscribe at any time, without any costs being incurred to you other than the transmission costs in accordance with the basic tariff of your provider.
LINKS TO OTHER WEB PAGES
So far as our internet service gives references or links to the websites of third parties, we cannot assume any warranty or liability for the accuracy or completeness of the contents and the data security of such websites. As we have no influence on the adherence to data privacy statutes by third parties, you should separately review the privacy policies provided in each case.

GOOGLE ANALYTICS
This website uses Google Analytics, a web analytics service provided by Google, Inc. (“Google”).

On behalf of the website provider Google will use this information for the purpose of evaluating your use of the website, compiling reports on website activity for website operators and providing other services relating to website activity and internet usage to the website provider.
