We use maps provided by the “Google Maps” from Google LLC, 1600 Amphitheater Parkway, Mountain View, CA 94043, USA. Privacy policy: https://www.google.com/policies/privacy/, Opt-Out: https://adssettings.google.com/authenticated.


Google Fonts

We use fonts (“Google Fonts”) provided by Google LLC, 1600 Amphitheater Parkway, Mountain View, CA 94043, USA. Privacy policy: https://www.google.com/policies/privacy/, Opt-Out: https://adssettings.google.com/authenticated.

Web analysis

Our website uses the web analysis service Google Analytics provided by Google Inc., based at 1600 Amphitheater Parkway Mountain View, CA 94043, USA. This service uses cookies to enable visitors’ use of the website to be analysed. The information generated in this way is transferred to the Google server in the USA and stored there. You can prevent this by adjusting your browser settings to prevent cookies from being stored. We have concluded an appropriate contract data processing agreement with the provider. Our concern within the meaning of the GDPR (legitimate interest) is to improve our services and our website. Since the privacy of our users is important to us, user data is pseudonymized. Your IP address is recorded, but immediately pseudonymized (e.g. by deleting the last 8 bits). This means that your location can be only generally identified. Data processing is undertaken on the basis of the provisions of Section 96(3) of TKG (Austria Telecommunications Act) and Art 6(1)(a) (consent) and / or (f) (legitimate interest) of GDPR. In addition, Google is certified under the Privacy Shield Agreement and thus guarantees its compliance with European data protection law (https://www.privacyshield.gov/participant?id=a2zt000000001L5AAI&status=Active). User data is stored for a period of 14 months. Detailed information on data usage by Google, how to adjust settings and objection to data processing is available from the following Google websites: https://www.google.com/intl/de/policies/privacy/partners (“Data usage by Google when you use Websites or apps of our partners “), http://www.google.com/policies/technologies/ads (” Use of data for advertising purposes “), http://www.google.de/settings/ads” Manage information that Google used to show you advertisements ”).


Mouse tracking

Our concern within the meaning of the GDPR (legitimate interest) is to improve our services and our website. We therefore use Hotjar to better understand the needs of our users and to optimize the services provided on this website. Hotjar technology enables us to acquire a better understanding of the experiences of our users (e.g. how much time users spend on which pages, which links they click, what they like and do not like, etc.) and this helps us to adjust our services in line with user feedback. Hotjar uses cookies (see above) and other technology to collect information about the behavior of our users and about their devices (in particular the IP address of the device (which is recorded and stored in anonymised form only), screen size, device type (Unique Device Identifiers) , browser information, location (country only), preferred language for displaying our website). Hotjar saves this information in a pseudonymized user profile. The information is used neither by Hotjar nor by us to identify individual users, and is not combined with other data about individual users. Further information is available from the Hotjar privacy policy: https://www.hotjar.com/legal/policies/privacy. You may object to storage by Hotjar of your user profile and information about your visit to our website and the setting of Hotjar tracking cookies on other websites by clicking on this opt-out link.


Data stored via our webshop

The following data is stored by us for the purpose of processing contracts: title, first and last name, address, email address and data entered by users on an optional basis (company name, details of the address, telephone number). We need the data you provide in order to fulfill your contract or for the purpose of pre-contractual requirements. Without this data, we cannot conclude the contract with you. No data is transferred to third parties, with the exception of the transfer of credit card data to the processing bank / payment service provider for the purpose of debiting the purchase price, to the transport company / shipping company commissioned by us to deliver the goods and to our tax advisor to fulfill our tax obligations. If you cancel your purchase, any data stored by us will be deleted. In the event that a contract is concluded, all data relating to the contractual relationship will be stored until the expiry of the retention period for tax purposes (7 years). The data name, address, goods purchased and date of purchase will also be stored until product liability expires (10 years). Data processing is undertaken on the basis of Section 96(3) of TKG (Austrian Telecommunications Act) and Art 6(1)(a) (consent) and / or (b) (necessary to fulfill the contract) of GDPR.

 


Registration and user account

Users of our web shop are given the option to create a user account. We provide users with the required information (mandatory optional information fields) during the registration process. We use data entered by users in the course of registration to enable them to make use of our services: users may be emailed with information relevant to registration or to our services, for example regarding changes to the scope of services or technical updates. Where users cancel their user account, their data will be deleted from this account, with the exception of data that must be retained in order to comply with commercial or tax law in accordance with Art. 6 (1)(c) of GDPR. Users are responsible for backing up data if they cancel a contract before the termination date. We are entitled to irretrievably delete all user data stored during the term of the contract. On the basis both of our legitimate interests and of the interests of users in being protected against misuse or other unauthorized use, we store user IP addresses and the time of user activity whenever a user registers or logs in to their account. IP addresses are anonymized or deleted at the latest after 7 days. In principle we do not pass data on to third parties, with the exception of situations where we have to pursue a claim or where we are legally obliged to do so under Art. 6(1)(c) of GDPR.

Google-Re/Marketing-Services

Our concern within the meaning of the GDPR (legitimate interest) is to improve our services and our website. We therefore use the marketing and remarketing services (“Google Marketing Services” for short) from Google LLC, 1600 Amphitheater Parkway, Mountain View, CA 94043, USA, (“Google”). Google is certified under the Privacy Shield Agreement and thus guarantees its compliance with European data protection law (https://www.privacyshield.gov/participant?id=a2zt000000001L5AAI&status=Active). Google Marketing Services enables us to display advertisements for and on our website in a targeted manner, in order to provide users only with those advertisements that may reflect their interests. To do this, Google executes a code and uses so-called (re-) marketing tags, which enable an individual cookie to be stored on the user’s browser. For the use of cookies see above. The information collected can also be combined with information from other sources by Google. If the user then visits other websites, they can be shown advertisements tailored to their interests. In addition, the IP address of the user is recorded via Google Analytics, but pseudonymized immediately (e.g. by deleting the last 8 bits). This means that their location can only be generally identified. Ads are not managed and displayed for a specific individual, but for the cookie owner, regardless of who this is. This does not apply if a user has given Google express consent to process the data without this pseudonymization. Information collected by Google Marketing Services about users is transmitted to Google and stored on Google’s servers in the USA. User IP addresses will not be merged with user data within other Google services. The cookies set by us include cookies from the Google AdWords marketing service; we may display third-party advertisements on the basis of the Google marketing service AdSense and its cookies. For more information on Google’s use of data for marketing purposes, visit https://policies.google.com/technologies/ads. Google’s privacy policy is available at https://www.google.com/policies/privacy. We also use Google Tag Manager to integrate the analysis and marketing services offered by Google into our website and to manage them centrally.

Use of Facebook social plugins

Plugins can display content such as graphics, text contributions, videos or interactive elements.
