2) Data collection when visiting our website
When using our website purely for information purposes, in other words if you do not register or send us information in any other way, we only collect such data that your browser sends to our server (so-called “server log files”). When you access our website, we collect the following data, which is technically necessary for us to show you the website:
  • Our website visited
  • Date and time at the time of access
  • Amount of data sent in bytes
  • Source/reference from where you came to the page
  • Browser used
  • Operating system used

Data is not passed on or used in any other way. We reserve the right, however, to check the server log files retrospectively if there is concrete evidence of unlawful usage.

3) Cookies
To make visiting our website attractive and to enable certain functions to be used, we may use so-called cookies on various pages. This involves small text files, which are stored on your computer or other device. Some of the cookies used by us are deleted after the end of the browser session, in other words after closing your browser (so-called session cookies). Other cookies remain on your device and enable us or our partner companies (cookies from third party providers) to recognise your browser the next time you visit (persistent cookies). If cookies are set, these collect and process certain user information to an individual extent, such as browser and location data as well as IP address values. Persistent cookies are automatically deleted after a specified period, which may vary depending on the cookie.
The cookies are sometimes used, by saving settings, to make the ordering process easier (e.g. noting the content of a virtual basket for a later visit to the website). If personal data is also processed using individual cookies implemented by us, this is processed pursuant to either Art. 6 Para. 1 b of the GDPR to execute the agreement or pursuant to Art. 6 Para. 1 f of the GDPR to safeguard our legitimate interests in the best possible functionality of the website and to make visiting the site effective and customer-friendly.
In some circumstances we may work with advertising partners, who help us to make our Internet content more interesting for you. In this case, cookies from partner companies are also saved on your hard drive for this purpose when you visit our website (cookies from third party providers). If we work together with advertising partners, you will be informed individually and separately in the paragraphs below about the application of such cookies and the extent of the information collected in each case.
Please bear in mind that you can set your browser so that you are informed about cookies being set and can decide to accept them individually or exclude the acceptance of cookies for certain cases or in general. Every browser differs in the way it manages the cookie settings. This is described in every browser’s help menu, which explains how you can change your cookie settings.

7) Online marketing
Use of Google Adwords conversion tracking This website uses the online advertising programme, “Google AdWords”, and, as part of Google AdWords, conversion tracking provided by Google LLC., 1600 Amphitheatre Parkway, Mountain View, CA 94043, USA (“Google”). We use the Google Adwords service to draw attention to our product ranges with the help of advertising material (so-called Google Adwords) on external websites. In relation to the data from the advertising campaigns, we can determine how successful the individual advertising measures are. We thus pursue the interest of showing you advertising that is of interest to you, making our website more interesting for you and achieving a fair calculation of advertising costs.
The cookie for conversion tracking is set if a user clicks on an Adwords ad placed by Google. Cookies are small text files, which are stored on your computer system. These cookies lose their validity after 30 days as a rule and are not used for personal identification. If the user visits particular pages on this website and the cookie has not yet expired, we and Google can tell that the user has clicked on the ad and was directed to this page. Every Google AdWords customer is given a different cookie. Cookies cannot therefore be tracked through the websites of AdWords customers. The information collected with the aid of conversion cookies is used to create conversion statistics for AdWords customers who have opted for conversion tracking. The customers find out the total number of users who have clicked on their ad and were directed to a page with a conversion tracking tag. They do not receive any information, however, from which users can be personally identified. If you do not want to participate in tracking, you can block this usage by disabling the Google conversion tracking cookie on your Internet browser under user settings. In this case you will not be included in the conversion tracking statistics. We set Google Adwords based on our legitimate interest in targeted advertising pursuant to Art. 6 Para. 1 f of the GDPR.

You can disable cookies for ads preferences permanently by preventing this through a corresponding setting in your browser software or by downloading and installing the browser plug-in available under the following link:

Please bear in mind that certain functions of this website may not be able to be used or only to a limited extent if you have disabled the use of cookies.


8) Web analysis servicesGoogle (Universal) Analytics
- Google Analytics
This website uses Google Analytics, a web analysis service provided by Google LLC, 1600 Amphitheatre Parkway, Mountain View, CA 94043, USA ("Google"). Google Analytics uses “cookies”, which are text files placed on your computer, to help the website analyse how users use the site. The information generated by the cookie about your use of this website (including the shortened IP address) will be transmitted to and stored by Google on a server in the United States as a rule.
This website uses Google Analytics only with the add-on "_anonymizeIp()", which ensures the IP address is anonymised by being shortened and guarantees anonymity. The add-on ensures your IP address is shortened beforehand by Google in member states of the European Union or in other states that are party to the European Economic Area Agreement. Only in exceptional cases will the full IP address be transferred to a Google server in the USA and shortened there. In these exceptional cases, data is processed pursuant to Art. 6 Para. 1 f of the GDPR based on our legitimate interest in the statistical analysis of user behaviour for optimisation and marketing purposes.
On our behalf, Google will use this information for the purpose of evaluating your use of the website, compiling reports on website activity and providing us with other services relating to website activity and internet usage. The IP address transmitted from your browser as part of Google Analytics will not be put together with other Google data.
You can prevent cookies from being saved by selecting the appropriate settings on your browser software; however, please note that if you do this you may not be able to use the full functionality of this website. Furthermore, you can prevent the collection of data generated by the cookie about your use of the website (including your IP address) and its processing by Google by downloading and installing the browser plug-in provided under the following link:
https://tools.google.com/dlpage/gaoptout?hl=en
As an alternative to the browser plugin or in browsers on mobile devices, please click on the following link to set on opt-out cookie, which will prevent data being recorded by Google Analytics on this website in future (this opt-out cookie only works in this browser and only for this domain, if you are deleting cookies in this browser, you must click this link again): Disabling Google Analytics

9) Tools and miscellaneous Google Maps
On our website we use Google Maps (API) provided by Google LLC., 1600 Amphitheatre Parkway, Mountain View, CA 94043, USA (“Google”). Google Maps is a web service for showing interactive maps in order to view geographic information. Using this service shows you our location and makes it easier to reach us if need be.

As soon as you access those subpages in which the map provided by Google Maps is integrated, information about your use of our website (such as your IP address) is transmitted to a Google server in the USA and stored there. This happens regardless of whether Google provides a user account, via which you are logged in, or there is no user account. If you are logged into Google, your data will be assigned directly to your account. If you do not want your data to be assigned to your Google profile, you must log out before pressing the button. Google saves your data (even for users not logged in) as usage profiles and analyses these. Such analysis is carried out in particular pursuant to Art. 6 Para 1 f of the DSGVO based on Google’s legitimate interest in showing personalised advertising, market research and/or tailoring the layout of its website in line with needs. You are entitled to object to these user profiles being created, whereby you must get in touch with Google to exercise this right.
Google LLC based in the USA is certified for the US-European data protection agreement, “Privacy Shield”, which ensures compliance with the data protection level applicable in the EU.
If you do not agree to your data being sent to Google in future as part of using Google Maps, there is also the option of completely disabling the service provided by Google Maps by switching off the JavaScript application in your browser. Google Maps and hence also the map shown on this website cannot be used then.
You can see the Google terms of use under https://policies.google.com/terms?hl=gb&gl=en, whilst you will find the additional terms of use for Google Maps under https://www.google.com/intl/en_GB/help/terms_maps.html
Comprehensive information about data protection in connection with the use of Google Maps can be found on the Google website (“Google Privacy Policy”): https://policies.google.com/privacy?hl=en
