3.3 Cookies

We use so-called session cookies to optimise our website. A session cookie is a small text file that is sent by the respective servers when you visit a website and is temporarily stored on your hard drive. This file as such contains a so-called session ID, with which various requests from your browser can be assigned to the joint session.

They are used, for example, to prevent the cookie banner from being displayed again.

We also use a small number of persistent cookies (also small text files that are stored on your end device), which remain on your end device and enable us to recognise your browser on your next visit.

To secure your data, we maintain technical and organisational security measures in accordance with Art. 32 GDPR, which we constantly adapt to the state of the art.

We also do not guarantee that our service will be available at certain times; disruptions, interruptions or failures cannot be ruled out. The servers we use are carefully backed up on a regular basis.

In principle, we only use your personal data within our company.

If and insofar as we involve third parties in the fulfilment of contracts (such as logistics service providers), they will only receive personal data to the extent that the transfer is necessary for the corresponding service.

In the event that we outsource certain parts of data processing ("order processing"), we contractually oblige processors to use personal data only in accordance with the requirements of data protection laws and to ensure the protection of the rights of the data subject.

Data transfer to bodies or persons outside the EU outside the cases mentioned in this declaration in sections 5 and 6 does not take place and is not planned.
