• Technical information about your device (e.g., IP address, browser type, time of access)
• Information you provide to us through our contact forms

4. How We Use Your Data

• Providing and improving our website and services

• Processing your orders and payments
• Fulfillment of legal obligations, particularly tax and commercial law retention obligations

5. Legal bases

We process your data based on Art. 6 para. 1 GDPR, particularly for the fulfillment of a contract or pre-contractual measures (lit. b), for the fulfillment of legal obligations (lit. c), based on our legitimate interest in a secure and functional online presence (lit. f), as well as – where necessary – based on your consent (lit. a), which you can revoke at any time with effect for the future.

6. Hosting

Our website and our shop are operated with the software Odoo and hosted by Odoo S.A. (Belgium). When accessing the website, technically necessary data (e.g., IP address, date and time, accessed page) is processed to deliver the website and ensure its security.

7. Contact form and email

If you contact us via a form or by email, we process your information to handle your request. The data will be deleted as soon as it is no longer necessary for that purpose and there are no legal retention obligations to the contrary.

8. Protection against spam and abuse (Cloudflare Turnstile)

To protect our forms (e.g. contact form, customer account registration, password reset) against spam and automated access (bots), we use Cloudflare Turnstile, provided by Cloudflare, Inc., 101 Townsend St., San Francisco, CA 94107, USA.

When you open a protected form, Turnstile checks whether it is being used by a human or an automated program. For this purpose, Cloudflare processes technical characteristics of your connection and browser, in particular your IP address, your browser and operating system identifier (user agent), a technical fingerprint of the encrypted connection (TLS) and the website visited. Turnstile does not set cookies for advertising or tracking purposes, and the data is not used to create user profiles.

Cloudflare processes this data on our behalf. In addition, Cloudflare uses the data as an independent controller to improve Turnstile's bot detection.

The legal basis is Art. 6 para. 1 lit. f GDPR. Our legitimate interest is to protect our website and forms against abuse, spam and automated attacks. Access to information on your device is permitted under Section 25 para. 2 no. 2 TDDDG, as it is strictly necessary for this protection.

Data may be transferred to the USA. Cloudflare is certified under the EU-US Data Privacy Framework and has additionally concluded the European Commission's Standard Contractual Clauses.

For more information, see Cloudflare's Turnstile privacy notice and privacy policy.

9. Duration of storage

We only store personal data as long as it is necessary for the respective purpose or as required by legal retention periods.

10. Your rights

• Information about your stored data (Art. 15 GDPR)
• Correction of inaccurate data (Art. 16 GDPR)
• Deletion of your data (Art. 17 GDPR)
• Restriction of processing (Art. 18 GDPR)
• Data portability (Art. 20 GDPR)
• Objection to processing (Art. 21 GDPR)

You also have the right to complain to a data protection supervisory authority (Art. 77 GDPR), for example, to the Berlin Commissioner for Data Protection and Freedom of Information.
