§ 2 Data Processing for Contract Fulfillment

  1. Purpose of Processing
    The personal data you provide to us during the order process is required for the conclusion of a contract with us. You are not obliged to provide your personal data. However, without providing your address, we cannot send you the goods. For certain payment methods, we require the necessary payment details in order to forward them to a payment service provider commissioned by us. The processing of the data you enter during the order process therefore takes place for the purpose of contract fulfillment.

If you contact us by email, via a contact form, etc. before concluding a contract, we process the data obtained in this way to carry out pre-contractual measures and respond to your inquiries about our products.
In the event of opening a customer account, your data (in particular name, address, payment method, email, and password) will be processed for registration and the creation of a customer login. With the stored data, you can shop faster and view your past orders at any time. You may delete your account at any time by notifying us or using a delete function.

  1. Legal Basis
    The legal basis for this processing is Art. 6 (1)(b) GDPR.

  2. Categories of Recipients
    Payment service providers, shipping service providers, hosting providers, possibly merchandise management systems, possibly suppliers (dropshipping).

  3. Storage Period
    We store the data required for contract processing until the expiry of statutory warranty periods and, where applicable, contractual guarantee periods.
    Data required under commercial and tax law will be retained for the legally prescribed periods, generally ten years (§ 257 HGB, § 147 AO).
    Data processed for pre-contractual measures will be deleted once the measures have been carried out and it is clear that no contract will be concluded.
