This access data is analyzed exclusively for the purpose of ensuring trouble-free operation of the site and improving our offer. In accordance with Art. 6 para. 1 sentence 1 lit. f GDPR, this serves to safeguard our legitimate interests in the correct presentation of our offer, which predominate in the context of a balancing of interests.

We collect personal data if you voluntarily provide it to us as part of your order or when you contact us (e.g. via contact form or e-mail).

Depending on which payment service provider you select in the ordering process, in order to process payments, we pass on the payment data collected for this purpose to the credit institution responsible for the payment and, if applicable, the payment service provider commissioned by us, or to the selected payment service. In some cases, the selected payment service providers also collect this data themselves if you create an account there.
