General information on data processing

On this page, we provide you with information regarding the processing of your personal data on our website.

How we collect and
use your personal data will depend on how you interact with us or the services you use. We only collect, use or share your personal data where we have a legitimate purpose and a legal basis for doing so.

What do we mean by ‘legal basis’?

Consent (Art. 6(1) (a) GDPR)– You have given us your consent to process your personal data for the specific purpose we have explained to you. You have the right to withdraw your consent at any time. For further information on how to withdraw consent, please
see the ‘Exercising your rights’ subsections in the subsequent sections of this Privacy Policy.

Contract (Art 6(1) (b) GDPR) – We need to use your data to fulfil a contract you have with us. Alternatively, it’s necessary to use your data because we have
asked you to, or you have taken yourself, specific steps before entering that contract.

Legal Obligation (Art 6(1) (c) GDPR) – We need to use you’re your data to comply with the law.

Vital Interests (Art 6(1) (d) GDPR) –
Processing your data is necessary to protect your vital interests or of another person. For example, to prevent you from serious physical harm.

Public Task (Art 6(1) (e) GDPR) – Using your data is necessary for the performance of a task carried out in the
public interest, or because it is covered by a task set out in law, for example, for a statutory function.

Legitimate Interests (Art 6(1) (f) GDPR) – Processing your data is necessary to support a legitimate interest we or another party has, only where this is
not outweighed by your own interests.

Please note where your data is processed under the performance of a contract or for a legal obligation, if you do not provide the data requested, we may be unable to provide you with our app.

Data sharing and
international transfers

As explained throughout this Privacy Policy, we use various service providers to help us deliver our services and keep your data secure. When we use these service providers, it is necessary for us to share your personal data with them.

We have agreements in place with all our service providers that we share your data with that oblige them to protect your data.

Where your personal data is shared outside the EU, we ensure that your personal data is given an equivalent level of protection, either
because the jurisdiction to which your data is transferred has an ‘adequate’ data protection standard according to the European Commission, or by using another safeguard such as an enhanced contractual agreement, i.e. Standard Contractual Clauses adopted by the European
Commission (SCCs).

For example, where we use US service providers, we either rely on SCCs or the EU-US Data Protection Framework, depending on the specific provider. You can request a copy of SCCs we have concluded with our service providers by sending an email to
the email address provided in this Privacy Policy.

Hosting

The website is hosted on servers of a service provider commissioned by us.

Our service provider is:

iWelt GmbH + Co. KG Mainparkring 4, 97246 Eibelstadt

For further information
on the processing of personal data by iWelt please see:

The servers automatically collect and store information in so-called server log files, which your browser
automatically transmits when you visit the website. The stored information is:

  • Information about the browser type and the version used
  • The user’s operating system
  • Date and time of access
  • Websites from which the user’s system accessed our website
  • Websites the user’s system accessed through our website

This data will not be merged with other data sources. The data is collected on the basis of Art. 6 (1) (f) GDPR. The website operator
has a legitimate interest in the technically error-free presentation and optimization of his website – and server log files are therefore recorded.

The server of the website is geographically located in Germany.

Geotargeting

We use the IP address and other information provided by the user (e.g. the postal
code used for registration or ordering) to approach regional target groups (so-called “geotargeting”).

The regional target group approach is used, for example, to automatically display regional offers or advertisements that often are more relevant to users. The legal basis for
the use of the IP address and any other information provided by the user (e.g. postal code) is Art. 6 (1) (f) GDPR, based on our legitimate interest in ensuring a more precise target group approach and thus providing offers and advertising with greater relevance for our users.

Part of the IP address and the additional information provided by the user (e.g. postal code) are merely processed and not stored separately.

You can prevent geotargeting by, for example, using a VPN or proxy server that prevents accurate localisation. In addition,
depending on the browser you are using, you can also deactivate a location localisation in the corresponding browser settings (as far as this is supported by the respective browser).

We use geotargeting on our website for the following purposes:

  • Customer approach
  • Advertising

The data will be
deleted as soon as it is no longer necessary to achieve the purpose for which it was collected.

This is the case for the data collected during the registration process for the execution of a contract or for the implementation of pre-contractual
measures if the data is no longer required for the execution of the contract. Even after the conclusion of the contract, it may be necessary to store personal data of the contractual partner in order to comply with contractual or legal obligations.

5. Exercising your rights
