Even for links from other websites to our website, the data protection information of the respective website linking to ours applies.

Access Data
We, the website operator or site provider, collect data about access to the websites based on our legitimate interest (see Art. 6 para. 1 lit. f. GDPR) and store it as “server log files” on the website’s server. The following data is logged:

  • Visited websites
  • Time of access
  • Amount of data sent in bytes
  • Source/reference from which you accessed the page
  • Browser used
  • Operating system used
  • IP address used

The server log files are stored for a maximum of 7 days and then deleted. Data is stored for security reasons, e.g., to investigate cases of abuse. If data must be retained for evidentiary purposes, it is exempt from deletion until the incident is finally resolved.

Reach Measurement & Cookies
This website uses cookies for pseudonymized reach measurement, which are transmitted to the user’s browser either from our server or a third-party server. Cookies are small files that are stored on your device. Your browser accesses these files. The use of cookies increases the user-friendliness and security of this website.

If you do not want cookies for reach measurement to be stored on your device, you can object to the use of these files here:

Common browsers offer the option to disallow cookies. Note: It is not guaranteed that you will be able to access all functions of this website without restrictions if you make such settings.

Collection and Processing of Personal Data
The website operator or online shop operator collects, uses, and shares your personal data only if permitted by law or if you consent to the data collection. Personal data includes all information that serves to identify you and can be traced back to you – for example, your name, email address, and phone number.

You can also visit this website without providing any personal information. However, to improve our online offering, we store your access data to these websites (without personal reference). This access data includes, for example, the file you requested or the name of your internet provider. By anonymizing the data, it is not possible to draw conclusions about your person. What, how, and why we, as the website operator or online shop operator, store personal data.

What:
We process personal data such as first name, last name, IP address, email address, place of residence, postal code, and content details from the contact, registration, or newsletter form.

How:
We process personal data only with the express permission of the users concerned and in compliance with applicable data protection regulations.

Why:
The processing of personal data is carried out based on our legitimate interest to fulfill our contractually agreed services and to optimize our online offering.

Handling of Contact Data
If you contact us as the website operator or online shop operator through the contact options offered, your information will be stored so that it can be used to process and respond to your inquiry. This data will not be passed on to third parties without your consent.

Data Processing for Contract Fulfillment
The personal data provided during the ordering process is necessary for concluding a contract with us. You are not obliged to provide this data, but without your address or payment details, which we pass on to a payment service provider commissioned by us, e.g., PayPal, we cannot fulfill your contract. In this context, hosting providers, shipping service providers, merchandise management systems, and payment service providers are possible recipients of your data.

The data required for contract processing will be stored until the expiry of the statutory warranty and, if applicable, contractual guarantee periods. Data required under commercial and tax law will be retained for the legally specified period of ten years (cf. §257 HGB, §147 AO).

Data processed for pre-contractual measures, e.g., name, email address, etc., to answer your questions, will be deleted as soon as the measures have been carried out and it is clear that no contract will be concluded. The legal basis for this processing is guaranteed in accordance with Art. 6 para. 1 b) GDPR.

Google Analytics
This website uses the service “Google Analytics,” offered by Google Inc. (1600 Amphitheatre Parkway Mountain View, CA 94043, USA), based on our legitimate interests for the optimization and analysis of our online offering in the sense of Art. 6 para. 1 lit. f. GDPR. The service (Google Analytics) uses “cookies” – text files that are stored on your device. The information collected by the cookies is usually sent to a Google server in the USA and stored there.

Google LLC complies with European data protection law and is certified under the Privacy Shield Agreement: https://www.privacyshield.gov/participant?id=a2zt000000001L5AAI&status=Active

IP anonymization is active on this website. The IP address of users is truncated within the member states of the EU and the European Economic Area and in other contracting states of the agreement. Only in exceptional cases will the IP address first be transmitted in full to a Google server in the USA and truncated there. This truncation eliminates the personal reference of your IP address. The IP address transmitted by the browser will not be combined with other data stored by Google.

Within the framework of the agreement on order data processing, which we as the website operator or online shop operator have concluded with Google Inc., Google uses the collected information to evaluate website usage and website activity and provides services related to internet usage.

The data collected by Google on our behalf is used to evaluate the use of our online offering by individual users, e.g., to create reports on website activity to improve our online offering.

You have the option to prevent the storage of cookies on your device by making appropriate settings in your browser. It is not guaranteed that you will be able to access all functions of this website without restrictions if your browser does not allow cookies.

Furthermore, you can prevent the data collected by cookies (including your IP address) from being sent to and used by Google Inc. by installing a browser plugin. The following link leads you to the corresponding plugin: https://tools.google.com/dlpage/gaoptout?hl=de

Alternatively, by clicking this link (IMPORTANT: insert Opt-Out link), you can prevent Google Analytics from collecting data about you within this website. Clicking the link above downloads an “opt-out cookie.” Your browser must therefore generally allow the storage of cookies for this to work. If you regularly delete your cookies, you will need to click the link again each time you visit this website.

Newsletter Subscription and Advertising
The website operator or online shop operator offers you a newsletter in which they inform you about current events (discount promotions, other business transactions, etc.) and offers (special offers, new products, etc.). This also serves as an advertising tool. If you wish to subscribe to the newsletter, you must provide a valid email address. By subscribing to the newsletter, you agree to receive the newsletter and the procedures explained.

Processing is carried out in accordance with Art. 6 para. 1 lit. f. GDPR.
Your email address will only be stored for the newsletter for the duration of the desired subscription.

Revocation and Cancellation: You can revoke your consent to receive the newsletter at any time and thus cancel the newsletter subscription. After your cancellation, your personal data will be deleted. Your consent to newsletter dispatch expires simultaneously. You will find the unsubscribe link at the end of each newsletter.

User Rights
As a user, you have the right to receive free information upon request about what personal data has been stored about you. You also have the right to rectification of incorrect data and to restriction of processing or deletion of your personal data. If applicable, you can also assert your right to data portability. Should you believe that your data has been processed unlawfully, you can lodge a complaint with the competent supervisory authority.

Deletion of Data
Provided your request does not conflict with a legal obligation to retain data (e.g., data retention), you have a right to have your data deleted. Data stored by us will be deleted if it is no longer necessary for its intended purpose and there are no legal retention periods. If deletion cannot be carried out because the data is required for permissible legal purposes, processing will be restricted. In this case, the data will be blocked and not processed for other purposes.

Right to Object
Users of this website can exercise their right to object and object to the processing of their personal data at any time.
If you wish to correct, block, delete, or obtain information about the personal data stored about you, or if you have questions regarding the collection, processing, or use of your personal data, or wish to revoke granted consents, please contact the following email address: service@aureawald.com
