7.3 Use of Payment Service Providers

- Apple Pay

If you choose the payment method "Apple Pay" from Apple Distribution International (Apple), Hollyhill Industrial Estate, Hollyhill, Cork, Ireland, payment processing is carried out via the "Apple Pay" function of your iOS, watchOS, or macOS device by charging a payment card stored in "Apple Pay". Apple Pay uses security features integrated into the hardware and software of your device to protect your transactions. To authorize a payment, you must enter a code you previously set and verify via the "Face ID" or "Touch ID" function of your device.

For payment processing purposes, the information you provided during the ordering process, together with information about your order, is transmitted to Apple in encrypted form. Apple then re-encrypts this data with a developer-specific key before transmitting it to the payment service provider of the payment card stored in Apple Pay. Encryption ensures that only the website through which the purchase was made can access the payment data. After payment is made, Apple sends your device account number and a transaction-specific dynamic security code to the originating website to confirm payment success.

Where personal data is processed in the transmissions described, processing is carried out exclusively for payment purposes pursuant to Art. 6(1)(b) GDPR.

Apple retains anonymized transaction data, including the approximate purchase amount, approximate date and time, and an indication of whether the transaction was successfully completed. Anonymization completely precludes any personal reference. Apple uses the anonymized data to improve "Apple Pay" and other Apple products and services.

When you use Apple Pay on iPhone or Apple Watch to complete a purchase made via Safari on Mac, the Mac and the authorization device communicate via an encrypted channel on Apple's servers. Apple does not process or store any of this information in a format that can identify you. You can disable Apple Pay on your Mac in your iPhone settings. Go to "Wallet & Apple Pay" and disable "Allow Payments on Mac".

Further information on data protection with Apple Pay can be found at: https://support.apple.com/de-de/HT203027
- Google Pay

If you choose the payment method "Google Pay" from Google Ireland Limited, Gordon House, 4 Barrow St, Dublin, D04 E5W5, Ireland ("Google"), payment processing is carried out via the "Google Pay" application on your mobile device running at least Android 4.4 ("KitKat") with NFC functionality, by charging a payment card stored in Google Pay or a verified payment system (e.g. PayPal). To authorize a Google Pay payment exceeding €25.00, your mobile device must first be unlocked via the configured verification method (e.g. facial recognition, password, fingerprint or pattern).

For payment processing purposes, the information you provided during the ordering process, together with information about your order, is transmitted to Google. Google then transmits your payment information stored in Google Pay in the form of a one-time transaction number to the originating website, which is used to verify the payment. This transaction number contains no information about the actual payment data of your payment method stored in Google Pay, but is created and transmitted as a one-time valid numeric token. In all Google Pay transactions, Google acts solely as an intermediary in processing the payment. The transaction is carried out exclusively between the user and the originating website by charging the payment method stored in Google Pay.

Where personal data is processed in the transmissions described, processing is carried out exclusively for payment purposes pursuant to Art. 6(1)(b) GDPR.

Google reserves the right to collect, store and analyze certain transaction-specific information for each transaction made via Google Pay. This includes the date, time and amount of the transaction, merchant location and description, a description of goods or services purchased as provided by the merchant, photos you have added to the transaction, the name and email address of the seller and buyer or sender and recipient, the payment method used, your description of the reason for the transaction, and any offer associated with the transaction.

According to Google, this processing is carried out exclusively pursuant to Art. 6(1)(f) GDPR on the basis of the legitimate interest in proper accounting, verification of transaction data, and the optimization and maintenance of the Google Pay service.

Google also reserves the right to merge the processed transaction data with other information collected and stored during the use of other Google services.

- Klarna

One or more online payment methods from the following provider are available on this website: Klarna Bank AB, Sveavägen 46, 111 34 Stockholm, Sweden

To protect our legitimate interest in determining our customers' creditworthiness, this data will be forwarded to the provider pursuant to Art. 6(1)(f) GDPR for the purpose of a credit check. The provider checks whether the payment option you have selected can be granted with regard to payment and/or default risks, based on the personal data you have provided and other data (such as shopping cart, invoice amount, order history, payment experience).

In addition to provider-internal criteria, identity and creditworthiness information from the following credit agencies may be included in the assessment decision pursuant to Art. 6(1)(f) GDPR:

https://cdn.klarna.com/1.0/shared/content/legal/terms/0/de_de/credit_rating_agencies

The credit assessment may contain probability values (so-called score values). Where score values are incorporated into the result of the credit assessment, they are based on a scientifically recognized mathematical-statistical method. Among other things, address data is factored into the calculation of score values.

You may object to this processing of your data at any time by contacting us or the provider. However, the provider may still be entitled to process your personal data if this is required for contractual payment processing.

To protect our legitimate interest in determining your creditworthiness in such cases, this data will be forwarded to the provider pursuant to Art. 6(1)(f) GDPR for the purpose of a credit check.

This includes, among other things, the evaluation of movement patterns (so-called heatmaps) that show the duration of page visits and interactions with page content (e.g. text inputs, scrolling, clicks, and mouse-overs). Pseudonymization fundamentally precludes any direct personal reference. No merging with clearly identified personal data collected by other means takes place.

All processing described above, in particular the reading or storing of information on the device used, is only carried out if you have given us your explicit consent pursuant to Art. 6(1)(a) GDPR.

9) Retargeting / Remarketing and Conversion Tracking

Google Ads Conversion Tracking

This website uses the online advertising program "Google Ads" and, within the framework of Google Ads, the conversion tracking service of Google Ireland Limited, Gordon House, 4 Barrow St, Dublin, D04 E5W5, Ireland ("Google"). We use Google Ads to draw attention to our attractive offers on external websites with the help of advertising media (so-called Google AdWords). In relation to the data from advertising campaigns, we can determine how successful individual advertising measures are. Our goal is to show you advertisements that are of interest to you, to make our website more interesting for you, and to achieve a fair calculation of advertising costs incurred.

The conversion tracking cookie is set when a user clicks on an ad placed by Google. Cookies are small text files stored on your device. These cookies generally lose their validity after 30 days and are not used for personal identification. When the user visits certain pages of this website and the cookie has not yet expired, Google and we can recognize that the user clicked on the ad and was redirected to this page. Each Google Ads customer receives a different cookie. Cookies cannot therefore be tracked across the websites of Google Ads customers. The information obtained through the conversion cookie is used to generate conversion statistics for Google Ads customers who have opted for conversion tracking. Customers are informed of the total number of users who clicked on their ad and were redirected to a page equipped with a conversion tracking tag. However, they do not receive any information that can be used to personally identify users. In the context of using Google Ads, personal data may also be transmitted to the servers of Google LLC in the USA.

Details on the processing initiated by Google Ads Conversion Tracking and Google's handling of data from websites can be found here: https://policies.google.com/technologies/partner-sites

All processing described above, in particular the setting of cookies for reading information on the device used, is only carried out if you have given us your explicit consent pursuant to Art. 6(1)(a) GDPR. You may revoke your given consent at any time with effect for the future by deactivating this service in the "Cookie Consent Tool" provided on the website.

You can also permanently object to the setting of cookies by Google Ads Conversion Tracking by downloading and installing the Google browser plug-in available at the following link:
https://support.google.com/My-Ad-Center-Help/answer/12155656?hl=de

Please note that certain features of this website may not be available or may only be available to a limited extent if you have disabled the use of cookies.
Google's privacy policy can be viewed here: https://business.safety.google/intl/de/privacy/ and https://www.google.de/policies/privacy/

10) Website Features

10.1 YouTube

This website uses plugins for displaying and playing videos from the following provider: Google Ireland Limited, Gordon House, 4 Barrow St, Dublin, D04 E5W5, Ireland

Data may also be transmitted to: Google LLC., USA

When you access a page on our website that contains such a plugin, your browser establishes a direct connection to the provider's servers at the latest when the video is played, in order to load the content. In doing so, certain information, including your IP address, is transmitted to the provider.

If the playback of embedded videos is started via the plugin, the provider also uses cookies to collect information about user behavior, create playback statistics, and prevent abusive behavior.

If you are logged into a user account with the provider during your visit to the site, your data will be directly associated with your account when you click on a video. If you do not want such an association with your account, you must log out before activating the playback button.

All aforementioned processing, in particular the setting of cookies for reading information on the device used, is only carried out if you have given us your explicit consent pursuant to Art. 6(1)(a) GDPR. You may revoke your given consent at any time with effect for the future by deactivating this service via the "Cookie Consent Tool" provided on the website.

10.2 Google Maps

This website uses an online map service from the following provider: Google Maps (API) by Google Ireland Limited, Gordon House, 4 Barrow St, Dublin, D04 E5W5, Ireland ("Google").

Google Maps is a web service for displaying interactive maps to visually present geographical information. This service shows you our location and makes it easier to find directions.

When you access subpages on which the Google Maps map is embedded, information about your use of our website (such as your IP address) is transmitted to Google's servers and stored there; this may also result in transmission to Google LLC servers in the USA. This occurs regardless of whether Google provides a user account through which you are logged in, or whether a user account exists. If you are logged into Google, your data will be directly associated with your account. If you do not want your data to be associated with your Google profile, you must log out before activating the button. Google stores your data (even for non-logged-in users) as usage profiles and analyzes them.

The collection, storage, and analysis are carried out pursuant to Art. 6(1)(f) GDPR on the basis of Google's legitimate interest in displaying personalized advertising, conducting market research, and/or designing Google websites to meet demand. You have the right to object to the creation of these user profiles, for which purpose you must contact Google. If you do not agree to the future transmission of your data to Google in the context of using Google Maps, you can also disable the Google Maps web service entirely by switching off JavaScript in your browser. Google Maps, and thus the map display on this website, will then not be available.

Where legally required, we have obtained your consent for the processing of your data described above pursuant to Art. 6(1)(a) GDPR. You may revoke your given consent at any time with effect for the future. To exercise your right of revocation, please follow the option to object described above.

Further information on Google's privacy policy can be found here: https://business.safety.google/intl/de/privacy/

10.3 Google reCAPTCHA

On this website, we use the CAPTCHA service of the following provider: Google Ireland Limited, Gordon House, 4 Barrow St, Dublin, D04 E5W5, Ireland

Data may also be transmitted to: Google LLC, USA.

For the visual design of the CAPTCHA window, the provider uses "Google Fonts", i.e. fonts loaded by Google from the internet. No additional information beyond what is already transmitted to Google through reCAPTCHA's functionality is processed in this context.

The service checks whether an input is made by a natural person or abusively via automated machine processing, and blocks spam, DDoS attacks, and similar automated malicious access attempts. To verify that an action is performed by a human and not an automated bot, the provider collects the IP address of the device used, identification data of the browser and operating system type used, and the date and duration of the visit, and transmits these to the provider's servers for evaluation. Cookies — small text files stored in the browser of the device — may be used in this context.

Where the processing described above is based on cookies, these are only set if you have given us your explicit consent pursuant to Art. 6(1)(a) GDPR. You may revoke your given consent at any time with effect for the future by deactivating this service in the "Cookie Consent Tool" provided on the website.

Where the processing described above is carried out without the use of cookies, the legal basis is our legitimate interest in ensuring individual accountability on the internet and preventing misuse and spam pursuant to Art. 6(1)(f) GDPR.

We have concluded a data processing agreement with the provider that ensures the protection of our site visitors' data and prohibits unauthorized disclosure to third parties.

11) Tools and Miscellaneous

Cookie Consent Tool

This website uses a so-called "Cookie Consent Tool" to obtain effective user consent for cookies and cookie-based applications that require consent. The "Cookie Consent Tool" is presented to users when the page is accessed in the form of an interactive user interface, through which consent can be given for specific cookies and/or cookie-based applications by checking the relevant boxes. By using the tool, all cookies and services requiring consent are only loaded if the respective user has granted the corresponding consent by checking the relevant boxes. This ensures that such cookies are only placed on the user's device if consent has been given.

The tool sets technically necessary cookies to save your cookie preferences. Personal user data is generally not processed in this context.

In individual cases where personal data (such as the IP address) is processed for the purpose of storing, assigning, or logging cookie settings, this is carried out pursuant to Art. 6(1)(f) GDPR on the basis of our legitimate interest in legally compliant, user-specific, and user-friendly consent management for cookies, and thus in the legally compliant design of our website.

A further legal basis for processing is Art. 6(1)(c) GDPR. As the controller, we are subject to a legal obligation to make the use of technically non-essential cookies dependent on the respective user's consent.

Where required, we have concluded a data processing agreement with the provider that ensures the protection of our site visitors' data and prohibits unauthorized disclosure to third parties.

Further information about the operator and the configuration options of the Cookie Consent Tool can be found directly in the corresponding user interface on our website.

12) Data Subject Rights

13) Duration of Storage of Personal Data

The duration of storage of personal data is determined by the applicable legal basis, the purpose of processing, and — where applicable — additionally by the relevant statutory retention period (e.g. commercial and tax law retention periods).

When processing personal data on the basis of explicit consent pursuant to Art. 6(1)(a) GDPR, the data concerned will be stored until you revoke your consent.

Where statutory retention periods exist for data processed in the context of contractual or quasi-contractual obligations on the basis of Art. 6(1)(b) GDPR, such data will be routinely deleted after the expiry of the retention periods, provided it is no longer necessary for the performance or initiation of a contract and/or there is no longer any legitimate interest on our part in continued storage.

When processing personal data on the basis of Art. 6(1)(f) GDPR, such data will be stored until you exercise your right to object under Art. 21(1) GDPR, unless we can demonstrate compelling legitimate grounds for processing that override your interests, rights, and freedoms, or the processing serves the assertion, exercise, or defense of legal claims.

When processing personal data for the purposes of direct marketing on the basis of Art. 6(1)(f) GDPR, such data will be stored until you exercise your right to object under Art. 21(2) GDPR.

Unless otherwise stated in the other information in this statement on specific processing situations, stored personal data will otherwise be deleted when it is no longer necessary for the purposes for which it was collected or otherwise processed.
