8.6 Use of payment service providers

- Apple Pay

If you choose "Apple Pay" as a payment method from Apple Distribution International (Apple), Hollyhill Industrial Estate, Hollyhill, Cork, Ireland, the payment will be processed via the "Apple Pay" function of your iOS, watchOS or macOS device by charging a payment card stored with "Apple Pay". Apple Pay uses security features built into your device's hardware and software to protect your transactions. To authorize a payment, you must enter a code you previously set and verify it using your device's "Face ID" or "Touch ID" function.

For the purpose of payment processing, the information you provide during the order process, along with information about your order, is encrypted and passed on to Apple. Apple then encrypts this data again with a developer-specific key before the data is transmitted to the payment service provider of the payment card stored in Apple Pay for the purpose of carrying out the payment. The encryption ensures that only the website where the purchase was made can access the payment data. After the payment has been made, Apple sends your device account number and a transaction-specific, dynamic security code to the originating website to confirm successful payment.

If personal data is processed during the described transmissions, the processing is carried out exclusively for the purpose of payment processing in accordance with Art. 6 para. 1 lit. b GDPR.

Apple retains anonymized transaction data, including the approximate purchase amount, approximate date and time, and whether the transaction was successfully completed. Anonymization completely excludes any personal reference. Apple uses the anonymized data to improve "Apple Pay" and other Apple products and services.

If you use Apple Pay on iPhone or Apple Watch to complete a purchase you made via Safari on Mac, the Mac and the authorization device communicate over an encrypted channel on Apple servers. Apple does not process or store any of this information in a format that can identify you. You can disable the ability to use Apple Pay on your Mac in your iPhone settings. Go to "Wallet & Apple Pay" and disable "Allow Payments on Mac."

Further information on data protection at Apple Pay can be found at the following Internet address: https://support.apple.com/de-de/HT203027
- Google Pay

If you choose "Google Pay" as a payment method from Google Ireland Limited, Gordon House, 4 Barrow St, Dublin, D04 E5W5, Ireland ("Google"), the payment will be processed via the "Google Pay" application of your mobile device running at least Android 4.4 ("KitKat") and equipped with an NFC function, by charging a payment card stored with Google Pay or a payment system verified there (e.g. PayPal). To authorize a payment via Google Pay exceeding €25, you must first unlock your mobile device using the configured verification method (e.g. face recognition, password, fingerprint or pattern).

For the purpose of payment processing, the information you provide during the order process, along with information about your order, is passed on to Google. Google then transmits your payment information stored in Google Pay in the form of a uniquely assigned transaction number to the originating website, with which a successful payment is verified. This transaction number does not contain any information about the real payment data of your payment methods stored in Google Pay, but is created and transmitted as a uniquely valid numerical token. For all transactions via Google Pay, Google acts merely as an intermediary for processing the payment. The transaction is carried out exclusively between the user and the originating website by charging the payment method stored in Google Pay.

If personal data is processed during the described transmissions, the processing is carried out exclusively for the purpose of payment processing in accordance with Art. 6 para. 1 lit. b GDPR.

Google reserves the right to collect, store and evaluate certain transaction-specific information for every transaction made via Google Pay. This includes the date, time and amount of the transaction, merchant location and description, a description of the goods or services purchased provided by the merchant, photos you have attached to the transaction, the name and email address of the seller and buyer or sender and recipient, the payment method used, your description of the reason for the transaction and, if applicable, the offer associated with the transaction.

According to Google, this processing is carried out exclusively in accordance with Art. 6 para. 1 lit. f GDPR on the basis of the legitimate interest in proper accounting, the verification of transaction data and the optimization and maintenance of the Google Pay service.

Google also reserves the right to combine the processed transaction data with other information collected and stored by Google when using other Google services.

This website uses the web analysis service of the following provider: Shopify International Limited, Victoria Buildings, 2nd Floor, 1-2 Haddington Road, Dublin 4, D04 XN32, Ireland

Data is also transferred to: Shopify Inc., 150 Elgin St, Ottawa, ON K2P 1L4, Canada

With the help of cookies and/or comparable technologies (tracking pixels, web beacons, algorithms for reading out end device and browser information), the service collects and stores pseudonymized visitor data, including information about the end device used such as the IP address and browser information, in order to evaluate it for statistical analyses of user behaviour on our website and to create pseudonymized user profiles. Among other things, this makes it possible to analyse movement patterns (so-called heatmaps), which show the duration of page visits and interactions with page content (e.g. text input, scrolling, clicks and mouse-overs). Pseudonymization generally excludes direct personal identifiability. A merging with otherwise collected clear data about your person does not take place.

All the processing described above, in particular the reading or storing of information on the end device used, will only be carried out if you have given us your explicit consent in accordance with Art. 6 para. 1 lit. a GDPR. You can revoke your given consent at any time with effect for the future by deactivating this service in the "Cookie Consent Tool" provided on the website.

We have concluded a data processing agreement with the provider that protects the data of our site visitors and prohibits disclosure to third parties.

In the event of data transfer to Canada, an adequate level of data protection is guaranteed by an adequacy decision of the European Commission.

10) Retargeting/Remarketing and Conversion Tracking

10.1 Meta Pixel

Within our online offering, we use the "Meta Pixel" service from the following provider: Meta Platforms Ireland Limited, 4 Grand Canal Square, Dublin 2, Ireland ("Meta")

If a user clicks on an advertisement placed by us on Facebook and/or Instagram, the URL of our linked page is extended by a parameter with the help of "Meta Pixel". This URL parameter is then entered into the user's browser after redirection by a cookie that our linked page itself sets.

This enables Meta, on the one hand, to determine the visitors to our online offering as a target group for the display of advertisements (so-called "Ads"). Accordingly, we use the service to display Facebook and/or Instagram Ads placed by us only to those users who have also shown an interest in our online offering or who have certain characteristics (e.g. interests in certain topics or products, which are determined based on the visited websites) which we transmit to Meta (so-called "Custom Audiences").

On the other hand, the "Meta Pixel" can be used to track whether users have been redirected to our website after clicking on an advertisement and what actions they take there (so-called "conversion tracking").

The data collected is anonymous for us, so it does not allow us to draw conclusions about the identity of the users. However, the data is stored and processed by Meta, so that a connection to the respective user profile is possible and Meta can use the data for its own advertising purposes.

All the processing described above, in particular the setting of cookies for reading out information on the end device used, will only be carried out if you have given us your explicit consent in accordance with Art. 6 para. 1 lit. a GDPR. You can revoke your given consent at any time with effect for the future by deactivating this service in the "Cookie Consent Tool" provided on the website.

We have concluded a data processing agreement with the provider, which ensures the protection of our site visitors' data and prohibits unauthorized disclosure to third parties.

The information generated by Meta is usually transferred to a Meta server and stored there; in this context, a transfer to servers of Meta Platforms Inc. in the USA may also occur.

10.2 Google Ads Remarketing

This website uses retargeting technology from the following provider: Google Ireland Limited, Gordon House, 4 Barrow St, Dublin, D04 E5W5, Ireland

For this purpose, Google sets a cookie in your end device's browser, which automatically enables interest-based advertising by means of a pseudonymous cookie ID and based on the pages you visit. Further data processing only takes place if you have agreed with Google that your internet and app browser history will be linked to your Google account and information from your Google account will be used to personalize ads that you see on the web. In this case, if you are logged into Google during your visit to our website, Google uses your data together with Google Analytics data to create and define target group lists for cross-device remarketing. For this purpose, your personal data is temporarily linked by Google with Google Analytics data to form target groups. When using Google Ads Remarketing, personal data may also be transferred to the servers of Google LLC in the USA.

All the processing described above, in particular the setting of cookies for reading out information on the end device used, will only be carried out if you have given us your explicit consent in accordance with Art. 6 para. 1 lit. a GDPR. Without this consent, retargeting technology will not be used during your visit to the site.

You can revoke your given consent at any time with effect for the future. To exercise your right of revocation, please deactivate this service in the "Cookie Consent Tool" provided on the website.

10.3 Google Ads Conversion Tracking

This website uses the "Google Ads" online advertising program and, within the framework of Google Ads, the conversion tracking of Google Ireland Limited, Gordon House, 4 Barrow St, Dublin, D04 E5W5, Ireland ("Google"). We use the Google Ads offer to draw attention to our attractive offers on external websites with the help of advertising materials (so-called Google Adwords). In relation to the data of the advertising campaigns, we can determine how successful the individual advertising measures are. We pursue the aim of showing you advertising that is of interest to you, making our website more interesting for you and achieving a fair calculation of the advertising costs incurred.

The cookie for conversion tracking is set when a user clicks on an ad placed by Google. Cookies are small text files that are stored on your end device. These cookies usually lose their validity after 30 days and are not used for personal identification. If the user visits certain pages of this website and the cookie has not yet expired, Google and we can recognise that the user clicked on the ad and was redirected to this page. Each Google Ads customer receives a different cookie. Cookies can therefore not be tracked across the websites of Google Ads customers. The information obtained using the conversion cookie is used to create conversion statistics for Google Ads customers who have opted for conversion tracking. Customers learn the total number of users who clicked on their ad and were redirected to a page tagged with a conversion tracking tag. However, they do not receive any information that allows users to be personally identified. When using Google Ads, personal data may also be transferred to the servers of Google LLC in the USA.

Details on the processing initiated by Google Ads Conversion Tracking and on how Google handles data from websites can be found here: https://policies.google.com/technologies/partner-sites

All the processing described above, in particular the setting of cookies for reading out information on the end device used, will only be carried out if you have given us your explicit consent in accordance with Art. 6 para. 1 lit. a DSGVO. You can revoke your given consent at any time with effect for the future by deactivating this service in the "Cookie Consent Tool" provided on the website.

You can also permanently object to the setting of cookies by Google Ads Conversion Tracking by downloading and installing the Google browser plug-in available at the following link:

11) Page functionalities

11.1 Integration of the Instagram feed via Mintt Studio

On our website, we use the services of Mintt Studio, Rua Parque da República 116, 4430-164 Vila Nova de Gaia, Portugal, to display preview images of our Instagram profile. Cookies are used for this purpose, which are small text files that are stored locally in the cache of your Internet browser.

The widget establishes a connection to servers of Meta Platforms Ireland Ltd., 4 Grand Canal Square, Grand Canal Harbour, Dublin 2 Ireland ("Instagram") when visitors visit our website. This provides Instagram with certain browser information, including your IP address. In individual cases, a transfer to servers of Meta Platforms Inc. based in the USA is also possible.

11.2 Youtube

This website uses plugins for displaying and playing videos from the following provider: Google Ireland Limited, Gordon House, 4 Barrow St, Dublin, D04 E5W5, Ireland

Data may also be transmitted to: Google LLC., USA

If you access a page of our website that contains such a plugin, your browser will establish a direct connection to the provider's servers at the latest when the video is played, in order to load the content. Certain information, including your IP address, will be transmitted to the provider.

If the playback of embedded videos is started via the plugin, the provider also uses cookies to collect information about user behavior, create playback statistics and prevent abusive behavior.

If you are logged into a user account with the provider during your visit to the site, your data will be directly assigned to your account when you click on a video. If you do not wish to have your data assigned to your account, you must log out before activating the playback button.

All the aforementioned processing operations, in particular the setting of cookies for reading out information on the end device used, will only be carried out if you have given us your explicit consent in accordance with Art. 6 para. 1 lit. a GDPR. You can revoke your given consent at any time with effect for the future by deactivating this service via the "Cookie Consent Tool" provided on the website.

11.3 Google Maps

This website uses an online map service from the following provider: Google Maps (API) from Google Ireland Limited, Gordon House, 4 Barrow St, Dublin, D04 E5W5, Ireland ("Google").

Google Maps is a web service for displaying interactive (country) maps to visually display geographical information. By using this service, our location is displayed to you and any journey is made easier.

As soon as you access the subpages in which the Google Maps map is embedded, information about your use of our website (such as your IP address) is transmitted to Google servers and stored there; in this process, it is also possible that data is transmitted to the servers of Google LLC. in the USA. This happens regardless of whether Google provides a user account through which you are logged in or whether a user account exists. If you are logged in to Google, your data will be directly assigned to your account. If you do not wish to be associated with your profile on Google, you must log out before activating the button. Google stores your data (even for users who are not logged in) as usage profiles and evaluates these.

The collection, storage and evaluation are carried out in accordance with Art. 6 para. 1 lit. f GDPR on the basis of Google's legitimate interest in displaying personalized advertising, market research and/or designing Google websites to meet demand. You have a right to object to the creation of these user profiles, and you must contact Google to exercise this right. If you do not agree to the future transmission of your data to Google within the scope of using Google Maps, it is also possible to completely deactivate the Google Maps web service by switching off the JavaScript application in your browser. Google Maps and thus also the map display on this website can then not be used.

Insofar as legally required, we have obtained your consent for the aforementioned processing of your data in accordance with Art. 6 para. 1 lit. a GDPR. You can revoke your given consent at any time with effect for the future. To exercise your right of revocation, please follow the aforementioned option for objection.

Further information on Google's data protection regulations can be found here: https://business.safety.google/intl/de/privacy/

11.4 Google reCAPTCHA

On this website we use the CAPTCHA service of the following provider: Google Ireland Limited, Gordon House, 4 Barrow St, Dublin, D04 E5W5, Ireland

Data may also be transmitted to: Google LLC, USA.

For the visual design of the captcha window, the provider uses "Google Fonts", i.e. fonts loaded from the Internet by Google. No further information than that mentioned above, which is already transmitted to Google via the functionality of reCAPTCHA, is processed here.

The service checks whether an input is made by a natural person or abusively by machine and automated processing, and blocks spam, DDoS attacks and similar automated harmful access. To ensure that an action is performed by a human and not by an automated bot, the provider collects the IP address of the end device used, identification data of the browser and operating system type used, as well as the date and duration of the visit, and transmits this for evaluation to the provider's servers. Cookies, i.e. small text files that are stored in the browser of the end device, may be used here.

If the processing described above is carried out on the basis of cookies, these will only be set if you have given us your explicit consent in accordance with Art. 6 para. 1 lit. a GDPR. You can revoke your given consent at any time with effect for the future by deactivating this service in the "Cookie Consent Tool" provided on the website.

If the processing described above is carried out without the use of cookies, the legal basis is our legitimate interest in determining individual responsibility on the Internet and preventing abuse and spam in accordance with Art. 6 para. 1 lit. f GDPR.

We have concluded a data processing agreement with the provider, which ensures the protection of our site visitors' data and prohibits unauthorized disclosure to third parties.

Further information on Google's data protection regulations can be found here: https://business.safety.google/intl/de/privacy/

11.5 Google Customer Reviews (formerly Google Certified Shops program)

We work with Google as part of the "Google Customer Reviews" program. The provider is Google Ireland Limited, Gordon House, 4 Barrow St, Dublin, D04 E5W5, Ireland ("Google"). This program gives us the opportunity to collect customer reviews from users of our website. After a purchase on our website, you will be asked if you would like to participate in an email survey from Google.

If you give your consent in accordance with Art. 6 para. 1 lit. a GDPR, we will transmit your e-mail address to Google. You will receive an e-mail from Google Customer Reviews asking you to rate your shopping experience on our website. The rating you submit will then be aggregated with our other ratings and displayed in our Google Customer Reviews badge and in our Merchant Center dashboard. Your rating will also be used for Google Seller Ratings. When using Google Customer Reviews, personal data may also be transmitted to the servers of Google LLC in the USA.

You can revoke your consent at any time by sending a message to the controller responsible for data processing or to Google.

12) Tools and miscellaneous

12.1 - Lexware Office

For accounting purposes, we use the cloud-based accounting software service of the following provider: Haufe-Lexware GmbH & Co. KG, Munzinger Straße 9, 79111 Freiburg, Germany

The provider processes incoming and outgoing invoices as well as, if applicable, our company's bank transactions in order to automatically record invoices, match them with transactions and create financial accounting from them in a semi-automated process.

If personal data is also processed in this process, the processing is carried out on the basis of our legitimate interest in efficient organisation and documentation of our business processes in accordance with Art. 6 para. 1 lit. f GDPR.

12.2 Cookie Consent Tool

This website uses a "Cookie Consent Tool" to obtain effective user consent for cookies and cookie-based applications that require consent. The "Cookie Consent Tool" is displayed to users when they access the page in the form of an interactive user interface, on which consent for certain cookies and/or cookie-based applications can be given by ticking a box. This ensures that all cookies/services requiring consent are only loaded if the respective user gives their consent by ticking the box. This ensures that such cookies are only set on the user's end device if consent has been given.

The tool sets technically necessary cookies to save your cookie preferences. Personal user data is generally not processed here.

If, in individual cases, personal data (such as the IP address) is processed for the purpose of storing, assigning or logging cookie settings, this is done in accordance with Art. 6 para. 1 lit. f GDPR on the basis of our legitimate interest in a legally compliant, user-specific and user-friendly consent management for cookies and thus in a legally compliant design of our website.

Another legal basis for the processing is also Art. 6 para. 1 lit. c GDPR. As controllers, we are subject to the legal obligation to make the use of technically unnecessary cookies dependent on the respective user's consent.

Where necessary, we have concluded a data processing agreement with the provider, which ensures the protection of our site visitors' data and prohibits unauthorized disclosure to third parties.

Further information on the operator and the setting options of the Cookie Consent Tool can be found directly in the corresponding user interface on our website.
