Data Security
Your personal data is safe with us! It is encrypted using SSL and transmitted to us. Our websites are protected by technical measures against damage, destruction, and unauthorized access.
The data processed when you use our website will be deleted or blocked as soon as the purpose for which it was stored no longer applies, provided that no legal retention requirements prevent the deletion of the data and no other information regarding specific processing procedures is provided below.
For technical reasons—in particular to ensure a secure and stable website—data is transmitted by your web browser to us, to our web hosting provider dmsolutions, and to our webmaster PPAM. These so-called server log files record, among other things, the type and version of your web browser, the operating system, the website from which you navigated to our website (referrer URL), the page(s) on our website that you visit, the date and time of each visit, and the IP address of the Internet connection from which our website is accessed.
The data collected in this manner is stored temporarily, but not in conjunction with any other data we have about you. This storage is based on the legal grounds set forth in Article 6(1)(f) of the GDPR. Our legitimate interest lies in improving the stability, functionality, and security of our website.
The data will be deleted no later than seven days after collection, unless further retention is necessary for evidentiary purposes. Otherwise, the data will be exempt from deletion, in whole or in part, until the incident has been fully resolved.
We use “Google reCAPTCHA” (hereinafter “reCAPTCHA”) on our websites. The provider is Google Inc., 1600 Amphitheatre Parkway, Mountain View, CA 94043, USA (“Google”).
This is used to verify whether data entered into our forms on this website is being entered by a human or by an automated program (a so-called “bot”). To do this, reCAPTCHA analyzes the website visitor’s behavior based on various characteristics. This analysis begins automatically as soon as the website visitor enters the website. To perform the analysis, this program evaluates various pieces of information (e.g., IP address, the length of time the website visitor spends on the website, or the user’s mouse movements). The data collected during the analysis is transmitted to Google. The reCAPTCHA analyses run entirely in the background. Website visitors are not notified that an analysis is taking place. Data processing is based on Article 6(1)(f) of the GDPR. The website operator has a legitimate interest in protecting its web offerings from abusive automated scraping and spam. Further information on Google reCAPTCHA, as well as Google’s Privacy Policy, can be found at the following links: https://www.google.com/intl/de/policies/privacy/ and https://www.google.com/recaptcha/intro/android.html.
We use so-called cookies on our website. Cookies are small text files or other storage technologies that are placed and stored on your device by the web browser you are using. These cookies are used to process certain information about you on an individual basis, such as your browser or location data, or your IP address.
This processing makes our website more user-friendly, effective, and secure, as it enables, for example, the display of our website in different languages or the provision of a shopping cart feature. The legal basis for this processing is Article 6(1)(b) of the GDPR, insofar as these cookies process data for the purpose of initiating or fulfilling a contract.
If the processing is not for the purpose of entering into or fulfilling a contract, our legitimate interest lies in improving the functionality of our website. The legal basis in this case is Article 6(1)(f) of the GDPR. These session cookies are deleted when you close your web browser.
Where applicable, our website may also use cookies from partner companies with which we collaborate for the purposes of analyzing or enhancing the functionality of our website. For details on this matter—in particular regarding the purposes and legal bases for processing such third-party cookies—please refer to the information below.
You can prevent or restrict the installation of cookies by adjusting your web browser settings. You can also delete cookies that have already been stored at any time. However, the steps and measures required to do so depend on the specific web browser you are using. If you have any questions, please use the help function or documentation for your web browser, or contact the browser’s manufacturer or support team. However, for so-called Flash cookies, processing cannot be prevented via your browser settings. Instead, you must change the settings in your Flash Player. The steps and measures required for this also depend on the specific Flash Player you are using. If you have any questions, please use the help function or documentation for your Flash Player, or contact the manufacturer or user support.
However, if you block or restrict the installation of cookies, this may prevent you from fully using all the features of our website.
The data you provide in order to use our products and/or services will be processed by us for the purpose of contract fulfillment and is necessary for that purpose. It is not possible to enter into or fulfill a contract without providing your data.
The legal basis for the processing is Article 6(1)(b) of the GDPR.
We delete the data once the contract has been fully processed, but we must comply with the retention periods required by tax and commercial law.
As part of the order fulfillment process, we share your data with the shipping company responsible for delivering the goods or with the financial service providers Micropayment and PayPal, to the extent that such sharing is necessary for the delivery of goods or for payment purposes.
The legal basis for the transfer of the data is then Article 6(1)(b) of the GDPR.
If you create a customer account with us through our website, we will use the information you provide during registration (such as, for example, your name, address, or email address) solely for pre-contractual services, for the fulfillment of the contract, or for customer service purposes (e.g., to provide you with an overview of your previous orders with us or to offer you the “wish list” feature). At the same time, we will store your IP address and the date and time of your registration. Of course, this data will not be disclosed to third parties, particularly not for advertising purposes.
As part of the rest of the registration process, we will obtain your consent to this processing and refer you to this Privacy Policy. The data we collect during this process will be used exclusively to set up your customer account.
To the extent that you consent to this processing, Article 6(1)(a) of the GDPR serves as the legal basis for the processing. If the creation of the customer account also serves the purpose of pre-contractual measures or the performance of a contract, the legal basis for this processing is also Article 6(1)(b) of the GDPR.
You may revoke the consent you have given us to open and maintain your customer account at any time, with future effect, in accordance with Article 7(3) of the GDPR. To do so, you simply need to notify us of your revocation. The data collected in this regard will be deleted as soon as processing is no longer necessary. However, we must comply with retention periods under tax and commercial law.
If you contact us via the contact form or by email, the information you provide will be used to process your inquiry. Providing this information is necessary for us to process and respond to your inquiry—without it, we will be unable to respond to your inquiry, or our response may be limited.
The legal basis for this processing is Article 6(1)(b) of the GDPR.
Your data will be deleted once your inquiry has been fully resolved and provided that no legal retention requirements prevent its deletion—such as in the case of any subsequent contract fulfillment.
If you do not consent to this processing, you can prevent cookies from being installed by adjusting the settings in your web browser. For more details, see the “Cookies” section above.
The legal basis is Article 6(1)(f) of the GDPR. Our legitimate interest lies in improving the quality of our website and in Vimeo’s legitimate interest,
, in analyzing user behavior for statistical purposes to optimize the site and for marketing purposes.
Vimeo provides additional information at https://vimeo.com/privacy regarding the collection and use of data, as well as your rights and options for protecting your privacy.
