3.3 Cookies

We use so-called session cookies to optimise our website. A session cookie is a small text block that is sent by the respective servers when you visit a website and stored temporarily on your end device. This text block as such contains a so-called session ID, with which different requests of your browser can be assigned to the common session. As a result, your browser is recognised as long as you remain on our website. They are used to enable you to use the shopping basket function across several pages. These cookies are deleted from your browser when you close it.

We also use persistent cookies (small text files that are stored on your end device) to a small extent, which enable us to recognise your browser the next time you visit. These cookies remain on your end device and are deleted from your browser after the specified time. Their life span is 1 month to 10 years. This enables us to present our services in a more user-friendly, effective and secured manner and, for example, to display information that is specifically tailored to your interests on the website.

Our legitimate interest in the use of cookies pursuant to Article 6, paragraph 1, sentence 1 f) of the GDPR is to make our website more user-friendly, effective and secure.

The following data and information are stored in the cookies:

Information on the number of visits to our website and use of individual functions of our website


When the cookie is activated, a session identification number is assigned to it; your personal data is not assigned to this session identification number. Your name, IP address or similar data that would allow the cookie to be assigned to you will not be stored in the cookie. Based on the cookie technology, we only receive pseudonymous information, e.g. about which pages of our shop have been visited, which products have been viewed, etc.

You can set your browser so that you are informed in advance about the setting of cookies and can decide whether you want to exclude the acceptance of cookies for certain cases or in general, or that cookies are completely prevented. This may restrict the functionality of the website.

4. Processing of Inventory Data

We process this inventory data as described below:

4.1 Online Shop

For an order in our online shop, we need your master, communication and payment data so that we can confirm your order receipt, communicate with you and process your order. For this purpose, you can register on our website by entering your personal data. For the new registration, we collect master data (e.g. name, address), communication data (e.g. email address) and payment data (bank details) as well as access data (user name and password).

To ensure your proper registration and to prevent unauthorised registrations by third parties, you will receive an activation link by email after registration to activate your account. We store the data transmitted by you permanently in our system only after successful registration.

Once a customer account has been created, you can ask us to delete it at any time without incurring any costs other than the transmission costs according to the basic tariffs. A message in text form to the contact data (e.g. email, fax, letter) mentioned under point 1 is sufficient for this purpose. We will then delete your stored personal data, provided we do not have to store it for the processing of orders or due to legal storage obligations.

4.2 Newsletter

We use the so-called double opt-in procedure to be able to send our newsletter to you. Only if you have expressly confirmed beforehand that you wish to receive the newsletter, we will send you an activation email and ask you to confirm that you wish to receive our newsletter by clicking on a link contained in this email.

You can always revoke your registration without incurring any costs other than the transmission costs according to the basic tariffs. A message in text form to the contact data (e.g. email, fax, letter) mentioned under point 1 is sufficient for this purpose. You will obviously find a unsubscribe link in every newsletter.

4.3 Legal Bases and Storage Period

Article 6, paragraph 1, sentences 1 a), b) and f) of the GDPR form the legal basis for data processing in accordance with the above paragraphs.
