external entities if this is necessary for the fulfillment of a contract, if we are legally
obliged to do so (e.g., passing on data to tax authorities), if we have a legitimate

Revocation of Your Consent to Data Processing
Many data processing operations are
only possible with your express consent. You can revoke consent you have already given
at any time. The legality of the data processing carried out until the revocation remains
unaffected by the revocation.
Right to Object to Data Collection in Special Cases and to Direct Marketing (Art. 21
GDPR)
IF DATA PROCESSING IS BASED ON ART. 6 PARA. 1 LIT. E OR F GDPR, YOU HAVE THE RIGHT AT ANY TIME, ON GROUNDS RELATING TO YOUR PARTICULAR SITUATION, TO OBJECT TO THE PROCESSING OF YOUR PERSONAL DATA; THIS ALSO APPLIES TO PROFILING BASED ON THESE PROVISIONS. THE RESPECTIVE LEGAL BASIS ON WHICH PROCESSING IS BASED CAN BE FOUND IN THIS PRIVACY POLICY.

IF YOUR
PERSONAL DATA IS PROCESSED FOR DIRECT MARKETING PURPOSES, YOU HAVE THE

DIRECT MARKETING (OBJECTION ACCORDING TO ART. 21 PARA. 2 GDPR).
Right to Lodge a Complaint with the Competent Supervisory Authority
In the event of
violations of the GDPR, data subjects have the right to lodge a complaint with a
supervisory authority, in particular in the Member State of their habitual residence, their
place of work, or the place of the alleged infringement. The right to lodge a complaint exists
without prejudice to any other administrative or judicial remedies.
Right to Data Portability
You have the right to have data that we process automatically on the basis of
your consent or in fulfillment of a contract handed over to yourself or to a third party in
a common, machine-readable format. If you request the direct
transfer of the data to another controller, this will only be done if it is technically
feasible.
Information, Correction, and Deletion
Within the framework of the applicable legal
provisions, you have the right at any time to free information about your stored personal
data, its origin and recipient, and the purpose of data processing and, if applicable, a right to

data, you can contact us at any time.
Right to Restriction of Processing
You have the right to request the restriction of the
processing of your personal data. You can contact us at any time for this.
The right to restriction of processing exists in the following cases:
- If you dispute the
accuracy of your personal data stored by us, we usually need time
to verify this. For the duration of the review, you have the right to request the
restriction of the processing of your personal data. - If the
processing of your personal data happened/is happening unlawfully, you can request the
restriction of data processing instead of deletion. - If we no longer need your
personal data, but you need it for the establishment, exercise, or
defense of legal claims, you have the right to request the restriction of the
processing of your personal data instead of deletion. - If you have lodged an
objection pursuant to Art. 21 para. 1 GDPR, a balancing of your interests and ours
must be carried out. As long as it has not yet been determined whose interests prevail, you have the
right to request the restriction of the processing of your personal data.
If you have restricted the processing of your personal data, these data
– apart from their storage – may only be processed with your consent or for the establishment,
exercise, or defense 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.
SSL or TLS Encryption
This site uses SSL or TLS encryption for security reasons and to protect the transmission of confidential content, such as orders or inquiries that you send to us as the site operator.

If SSL or TLS encryption is activated,
the data you transmit to us cannot be read by third parties.

4. Data Collection on This Website
Cookies
Our website uses so-called “cookies”. Cookies are small
data packets and do not cause any damage to your end device. They are stored either temporarily
for the duration of a session (session cookies) or permanently (permanent cookies) on your end device.
Session cookies are automatically deleted after your visit. Permanent cookies
remain stored on your end device until you delete them yourself or an automatic
deletion by your web browser occurs.
Cookies can originate from us (first-party cookies) or
from 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 have various functions. Numerous cookies are technically
necessary because certain website functions would not work without them (e.g., the
shopping cart function or the display of videos). Other cookies can be used to evaluate user
behavior or for advertising purposes.
Cookies that are necessary for carrying out the
electronic communication process, for providing certain functions you desire
(e.g., for the shopping cart function) or for optimizing the website (e.g., cookies for measuring
web audience) (necessary cookies) are stored on the basis of Art. 6 para. 1 lit. f GDPR,
unless another legal basis is specified. The website operator has a legitimate
interest in the storage of necessary cookies for the technically error-free and optimized provision
of its services. If consent for the storage of cookies and comparable
recognition technologies has been requested, processing is carried out exclusively on the basis of this
consent (Art. 6 para. 1 lit. a GDPR and § 25 para. 1 TDDDG); the consent is anytime revocable.
You can set your browser so that you are informed about the setting of cookies and
only allow cookies in individual cases, exclude the acceptance of cookies for certain cases or generally
exclude, and activate the automatic deletion of cookies when closing the browser.
If cookies are deactivated, the functionality of this website may be limited.
You can find out which cookies and services are used on this website in this
privacy policy.
Inquiry by Email, Phone, or Fax
If you contact us by email, phone, or fax,
your inquiry, including all resulting personal data (name, inquiry),
will be stored and processed by us for the purpose of handling your request. We will not pass on this data without
your consent.
The processing of this data is based on Art. 6 para. 1 lit. b
GDPR, insofar as your inquiry is related to the fulfillment of a contract or is necessary for the
implementation of pre-contractual measures. In all other cases, processing is based
on our legitimate interest in the effective processing of inquiries addressed to us
(Art. 6 para. 1 lit. f GDPR) or on your consent (Art. 6 para. 1 lit. a GDPR) if this has been requested;
consent can be revoked at any time.
The data you send us via contact inquiries
will remain with us until you request deletion, revoke your consent to
storage, or the purpose for data storage ceases to apply (e.g., after your request has been
processed). Mandatory legal provisions – in particular
statutory retention periods – remain unaffected.

to cookies, contain personal data and can be used for recognition.
Details on the extended data protection mode can be found here: https://support.google.com/youtube/answer/171780.

further data processing operations may be triggered over which
we have no influence.

of our online offers. This constitutes a legitimate interest within the meaning of Art. 6 para. 1 lit. f GDPR. If
corresponding consent has been requested, processing is carried out exclusively on the basis of
Art. 6 para. 1 lit. a GDPR and § 25 para. 1 TDDDG, insofar as the consent includes the storage of cookies or
access to information in the user’s end device (e.g., device fingerprinting) within the meaning of the
