3. General information on data processing

1. Scope of processing of personal data

As a matter of principle, we process personal data of our users only insofar as this is necessary to provide a functional webshop as well as our content and services. The processing of personal data of our users is usually only carried out with the consent of the user. An exception applies in cases where it is not possible to obtain prior consent for factual reasons and the processing of the data is required by law.

2. Legal basis for the processing of personal data

Insofar as we obtain the consent of the data subject for the processing of personal data, Art. 6 para. 1 sentence 1 lit. a GDPR serves as the legal basis.
For the processing of personal data that is necessary for the performance of a contract to which the data subject is a party, Art. 6 para. 1 sentence 1 lit. b GDPR serves as the legal basis. This also applies to processing operations that are necessary for the implementation of pre-contractual measures.
Insofar as the processing of personal data is necessary for the fulfilment of a legal obligation to which our company is subject, Art. 6 para. 1 sentence 1 lit. c GDPR serves as the legal basis.
In the event that vital interests of the data subject or another natural person require the processing of personal data, Art. 6 para. 1 sentence 1 lit. d GDPR serves as the legal basis. If the processing
is necessary to safeguard a legitimate interest of our company or a third party and the interests, fundamental rights and freedoms of the data subject do not outweigh the first interest, Art. 6 para. 1 sentence 1 lit. f GDPR serves as the legal basis for the processing.

3. Data deletion and storage period

The personal data of the data subject will be deleted or blocked as soon as the purpose for which it was stored no longer applies. In addition, storage may take place if this has been provided for by the European or national legislator in EU regulations, laws or other regulations to which the controller is subject. The data will also be blocked or deleted if a storage period prescribed by the aforementioned standards expires, unless there is a need for further storage of the data for the conclusion or fulfilment of a contract.

-In the case of unlawful processing, you oppose the erasure of the personal data and request the restriction of the use of the personal data instead.

-after you have objected to the processing, for the duration of the examination of whether our legitimate grounds prevail over yours.

4. Right to erasure ("right to be forgotten") (Art. 17 GDPR)

If one of the following reasons applies, you have the right to request the erasure of your personal data without undue delay:

Your data is no longer necessary for the processing purposes for which it was originally collected.
you withdraw your consent and there is no other legal basis for the processing.
You object to the processing and there are no overriding legitimate grounds for the processing or you object in accordance with Art. 21 (2) GDPR.

Please note that the above reasons do not apply to the extent that the processing is necessary:

You have the right to object, on grounds relating to your particular situation, at any time to the processing of your personal data which is carried out on the basis of Art. 6 (1) sentence 1 (e) or (f) GDPR. This also applies to profiling based on these provisions.
If your personal data is processed for the purpose of direct marketing, you have the right to object at any time to the processing of your personal data for the purpose of such marketing, including profiling to the extent that it is related to such direct marketing.
