For goods to be delivered, for instance, your name and address must be relayed to the supplier of the goods.

This website uses Google Tag Manager. This service allows website tags to be managed through a single interface. Google Tool Manager only implements tags. This means: no cookies are used and no personal data is collected. Google Tool Manager triggers other tags, which may collect data. However, Google Tag Manager does not access this data. If deactivated at the domain or cookie level, it will remain in effect for all tracking tags as far as they are implemented with the Google Tag Manager.

This website uses Google Analytics, a web analysis service of Google Inc. (Google). Google Analytics uses cookies, i.e. text files stored on your computer to enable analysis of website usage by you. Information generated by the cookie about your use of this website is usually transmitted to a Google server in the United States and stored there. In case of activated IP anonymization on this website, however, your IP address is previously truncated by Google within member states of the European Union or in other states which are party to the agreement on the European Economic Area. Only in exceptional cases is a full IP address transmitted to a Google server in the United States and truncated there. On behalf this website's owner, Google will use this information to evaluate your use of the website, compile reports about website activities, and provide the website's operator with further services related to website and Internet usage. The IP address sent from your browser as part of Google Analytics is not merged with other data by Google. You can prevent storage of cookies by appropriately setting your browser software; in this case, however, please note that you might not be able to fully use all functions offered by this website. In addition, you can prevent data generated by the cookie and relating to your use of the website (including your IP address) from being collected and processed by Google, by downloading and installing a browser plug-in from the following link: tools.google.com/dlpage/gaoptout

LiveChat

On the basis of our legitimate interests (i.e. interest in analysis, optimisation, customer satisfaction and economic operation of our online offer within the meaning of Art. 6 (1) (f) GDPR) we use LiveChat from the US service LiveChat Inc., One International Place, Suite 1400, Boston, MA 02110-2619, United States of America. LiveChat Inc is certified under the Privacy Shield Agreement, which provides a guarantee to comply with European privacy laws. On this see http://ec.europa.eu/justice/data-protection/document/citizens-guide_en.pdf. For more information about LiveChat’s privacy policy, please visit  https://www.livechatinc.com/privacy-policy/. When LiveChat is used, LiveChat starts by temporarily collecting the IP address to find the country from which the LiveChat is being started. This allows us to offer the customer tailored customer service. The collection of the IP address is therefore solely for this purpose. Permanent storage of the IP address by LiveChat does not take place. If you do not want data to be transferred to LiveChat, storage of cookies by LiveChat can be prevented in your browser settings. If necessary, please consult the operating instructions of the browser used. In addition, based on our legitimate interests, LiveChat will record the communications in LiveChat. If this is not desired, you are welcome to contact us via the contact details listed above. Saved LiveChats will be deleted by us immediately. The communication history is also deleted after the request has been completed. However, this is only done if the communication history is not required for legal defence and a contract has not been started or concluded in the context of LiveChat in which we store this data as contract data (must).
