8.2 Use of Payment Service Providers

- Apple Pay

If you choose "Apple Pay" as the payment method from Apple Distribution International (Apple), Hollyhill Industrial Estate, Hollyhill, Cork, Ireland, the payment will be processed via the "Apple Pay" function of your iOS, watchOS or macOS device by debiting a payment card stored in "Apple Pay". Apple Pay uses security features integrated into your device's hardware and software to protect your transactions. To approve a payment, you must also enter a code you previously set and verify it using your device's "Face ID" or "Touch ID" function.

For the purpose of payment processing, the information you provide during the order process is first transmitted to Apple in encrypted form along with information about your order. Apple encrypts this data again with a developer-specific key before the data is transmitted to the payment service provider of the payment card stored in Apple Pay for payment processing. The encryption ensures that only the website through which the purchase was made can access the payment data. After the payment has been sent, Apple sends a confirmation of successful payment to your device account number and a transaction-specific, dynamic security code to the originating website.

If personal data is processed during the described transmissions, the processing is carried out exclusively for the purpose of payment processing in accordance with Art. 6 para. 1 lit. b GDPR.

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

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

Further information on data protection at Apple Pay can be found at the following internet address: 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"), the payment will be processed via the "Google Pay" application on your mobile device running at least Android 4.4 ("KitKat") and equipped with an NFC function, by debiting a payment card stored in Google Pay or a verified payment system there (e.g., PayPal). For payments via Google Pay exceeding €25, prior unlocking of your mobile device by the respective verification measure (e.g., facial recognition, password, fingerprint, or pattern) is required.

For the purpose of payment processing, your information provided during the order process is first transmitted to Google along with information about your order. Google then transmits your payment information stored in Google Pay in the form of a uniquely assigned transaction number to the originating website, with which a successful payment is verified. This transaction number contains no information about the real payment data of your payment method stored in Google Pay, but is created and transmitted as a uniquely valid numerical token. In all transactions via Google Pay, Google merely acts as an intermediary for processing the payment. The transaction is carried out exclusively between you and the originating website by debiting the payment method stored in Google Pay.

If personal data is processed during the described transmissions, the processing is carried out exclusively for the purpose of payment processing in accordance with Art. 6 para. 1 lit. b GDPR.

Google reserves the right to collect, store, and evaluate 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 the goods or services purchased provided by the merchant, photos you have attached 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, if applicable, the offer associated with the transaction.

According to Google, this processing is carried out exclusively in accordance with Art. 6 para. 1 lit. f GDPR based on the legitimate interest in proper accounting, verification of transaction data, and optimization and maintenance of the Google Pay service.

Google also reserves the right to combine the processed transaction data with other information collected and stored by Google when using other Google services.

9) Online Marketing

Google AdSense

This website uses Google AdSense, a web advertising service from Google Ireland Limited, Gordon House, 4 Barrow St, Dublin, D04 E5W5, Ireland (“Google”). Google AdSense uses so-called cookies, which are text files stored on your computer that enable an analysis of your use of the website. In addition, Google AdSense also uses "web beacons" (small invisible graphics) to collect information, which can be used to record, collect, and evaluate simple actions such as visitor traffic on the website. The information generated by the cookie and/or web beacon (including your IP address) about your use of this website is usually transmitted to a Google server and stored there. This may also involve a transfer to the Google LLC server in the USA.

Google used the information thus obtained to evaluate your usage behavior with regard to the AdSense ads. The IP address transmitted by your browser within the scope of Google AdSense is not merged with other Google data. The information collected by Google may be transferred to third parties if this is legally required and/or if third parties process this data on behalf of Google. All processing described above, in particular the reading of information on the end device used via cookies and/or web beacons, will only be carried out if you have given us your express consent in accordance with Art. 6 para. 1 lit. a GDPR. Without this declaration of consent, Google AdSense will not be used during your visit to the site.

You can 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.

Data is also transferred to: Shopify Inc., 150 Elgin St, Ottawa, ON K2P 1L4, Canada

Using cookies and/or comparable technologies (tracking pixels, web beacons, algorithms for reading device and browser information), the service collects and stores pseudonymized visitor data, including information about the end device used, such as the IP address and browser information, to evaluate it for statistical analyses of user behavior on our website and to create pseudonymized usage profiles. This allows, among other things, the evaluation of movement patterns (so-called heatmaps), which show the duration of page visits and interactions with page content (e.g., text input, scrolling, clicks, and mouse-overs). Pseudonymization generally excludes direct personal identification. No merging with clear data collected in other ways about you takes place.

All processing described above, in particular the reading or storing of information on the end device used, will only be fully carried out if you have given us your express consent in accordance with Art. 6 para. 1 lit. a GDPR.

11) Retargeting/Remarketing and Conversion Tracking

11.1 Meta Pixel

Within our online offering, we use the "Meta Pixel" service from the following provider: Meta Platforms Ireland Limited, 4 Grand Canal Quare, Dublin 2, Ireland ("Meta").

If you click on an advertisement placed by us on Facebook and/or Instagram, the URL of our linked page is extended by a parameter using "Meta Pixel". This URL parameter is then entered into the user's browser after redirection by a cookie that our linked page itself sets.

This makes it possible to determine the visitors to our online offering as a target group for displaying advertisements (so-called "Ads"). We use the service to show the Facebook and/or Instagram Ads placed by us only to users who have also shown an interest in our online offering or who have certain characteristics (e.g. interests in specific topics or products, determined by the websites visited), which we transmit to Meta (so-called "Custom Audiences").

Conversely, the "Meta Pixel" can be used to track whether users were redirected to our website after clicking on an advertisement and what actions they take there (so-called "conversion tracking").

The collected data is anonymous for us and does not allow us to draw conclusions about the identity of the user. However, the data is stored and processed by Meta, so that a connection to the respective user profile is possible and Meta can use the data for its own advertising purposes.

All processing described above, in particular the setting of cookies for reading information on the end device used, will only be carried out if you have given us your express consent in accordance with Art. 6 para. 1 lit. a GDPR. You can 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.

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.

The information generated by Meta is usually transferred to a Meta server and stored there; in this context, a transfer to a server of Meta Platforms Inc. in the USA may also occur.

For data transfers to the USA, the provider has joined the EU-US Data Privacy Framework, which ensures compliance with the European level of data protection based on an adequacy decision by the European Commission.

11.2 Google Ads Remarketing

This website uses retargeting technology from the following provider: Google Ireland Limited, Gordon House, 4 Barrow St, Dublin, D04 E5W5, Ireland

Further data processing only takes place if you have agreed with Google that your internet and app browser will be linked to your Google account and that information from your Google account will be used to personalize advertisements you view on the web. If you are logged into Google during your visit to our website in this case, Google uses your data devices together with Google Analytics data to create and define audience lists for cross-site remarketing. For this purpose, your personal data is temporarily linked by Google with Google Analytics data to form target groups. In the context of using Google Ads Remarketing, personal data may also be transmitted to the server of Google LLC in the USA.

All processing described above, in particular the setting of cookies to read information on the end device used, will only be carried out if you have given us your express consent in accordance with Art. 6 para. 1 lit. a GDPR. Without this declaration of consent, the use of retargeting technology will not take place during your visit to the site.

You can revoke your given consent at any time with effect for the future. To exercise your right of withdrawal, please deactivate this service in the "Cookie Consent Tool" provided on the website.

For data transfers to the USA, the provider has joined the EU-US Data Privacy Framework, which ensures compliance with the European level of data protection based on an adequacy decision by the European Commission.

12) Page Functionality

Google Web Fonts

This site uses so-called web fonts from the following provider for the uniform display of fonts: Google Ireland Limited, Gordon House, 4 Barrow St, Dublin, D04 E5W5, Ireland

When you access a page, your browser loads the required web fonts into your browser cache to display texts and fonts correctly and establishes a direct connection to the provider's servers. Certain browser information, including your IP address, is transmitted to the provider.

Data may be transmitted to: Google LLC, USA

The processing of personal data in the course of establishing a connection with the font provider will only take place if you have given us your express consent in accordance with Art. 6 para. 1 lit. a GDPR. You can 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. If your browser does not support web fonts, a standard font from your computer will be used.

13) Tools and Other

Cookie Consent Tool

This website uses a "Cookie Consent Tool" to obtain effective user consents for cookies and cookie-based applications requiring consent. The "Cookie Consent Tool" is displayed to you as an interactive user interface when you visit the page, where you can give consent for certain cookies and/or cookie-based applications by checking a box. Through the use of this tool, all cookies/services requiring consent are only loaded if you give the corresponding consents by checking a box. This ensures that such cookies are only set on your respective end 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, if personal data (such as the IP address) is processed for the purpose of storing, assigning, or logging cookie settings, this is done in accordance with Art. 6 para. 1 lit. f GDPR, based on our legitimate interest in a legally compliant, user-specific, and user-friendly consent management for cookies and thus a legally compliant design of our website.

Further legal basis for processing is also Art. 6 para. 1 lit. c GDPR. As the controller, we are subject to the legal obligation to make the use of technically non-essential cookies dependent on the respective user's consent.

Where necessary, 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 settings options of the Cookie Consent Tool can be found directly in the corresponding user interface on our website.
