Every time a website is accessed, the web server automatically saves a so-called server log file, which contains, for example, the name of the requested file, your IP address, date and time of retrieval, amount of data transferred and the requesting provider (access data) and documents the retrieval. This access data is evaluated exclusively for the purpose of ensuring trouble-free operation of the site and improving our offering. In accordance with Article 6 Paragraph 1 Sentence 1 Letter f of the GDPR, this serves to protect our legitimate interests, which predominate in the context of a balancing of interests, in a correct presentation of our offer.

Depending on which payment service provider you select in the ordering process, we pass on the payment data collected for this purpose to the credit institution responsible for the payment and, if applicable, the payment service provider commissioned by us, or to the selected payment service, in order to process payments. In some cases, the selected payment service providers also collect this data themselves if you create an account there.

The same applies to the transfer of data to our manufacturers or wholesalers in cases where they take over the shipping for us (drop shipping).
