You can object to the processing of your data at any time for reasons arising from your particular situation, provided that the data processing is based on your consent or on our legitimate interests or those of a third party. In this case, we will no longer process your data unless we can demonstrate compelling legitimate grounds for the processing which override your interests or we need your data for the establishment, exercise or defense of legal claims.

Automated decision-making based on the personal data collected does not take place.

7. Transfer of data to third parties, no data transfer to non-EU countries

In principle, we only use personal data collected on this website for the purposes of this website.

If and insofar as we involve third parties in the fulfillment of contracts (such as logistics service providers), these third parties will only receive personal data to the extent that the transfer is necessary for the corresponding service.

In the event that we outsource certain parts of data processing (“order processing”), we contractually oblige processors to use personal data only in accordance with the requirements of data protection laws and to ensure the protection of the rights of the data subject.

The transfer of data to bodies or persons outside the EU is limited to the exceptions in this privacy policy.
