Cookies and the right to object in case of direct marketing

“Cookies” are small files stored on the computers of users. Various information may be stored within the cookies. A cookie serves primarily the purpose of storing the information concerning a user (respectively concerning the device on which the cookie is stored) during or even after his or her use of an online service. Temporary cookies respectively “session cookies” or “transient cookies” are cookies, which are deleted after a user leaves an online service and closes his browser. In such a cookie, the content of a basket, for example, in an online shop or a log-in status may be stored. “permanent” or “persistent” cookies are those which remain stored even after the browser is closed. Thus, for example, the log-in status may be stored, if the user visits same again after several days. Likewise, the interests of users may be stored in such a cookie, which are used to measure coverage, or for marketing purposes. Cookies offered by other parties than the controller operating the online service are described as “third party cookie” (cookies only of the latter operator are described as “first party cookies”).

We may use temporary and permanent cookies and will inform you accordingly in our data protection statement.

If users do not wish that cookies are stored on their computer, they are requested to deactivate the corresponding option in the system settings of their browser. Stored cookies may be deleted in the system settings of the browser. The exclusion of cookies may lead to limitations of the functions of this Online Service.

A general objection against the use of cookies used for online marketing may be declared in case of many services, primarily in the case of tracking, through the US site http://www.aboutads.info/choices/ or the EU site http://www.youronlinechoices.com/.

Insofar as the data are not deleted, because they are required for other and legally permitted purposes, their processing will be restricted. I.e. data are blocked and not processed for other purposes. This applies, for example, to data which must be retained for reasons of commercial or tax laws.

Pursuant to Austrian legal requirements, the retention period amounts in particular to seven years, pursuant to section 132 (1) of the Austrian Federal Tax Procedure Code (BAO) (bookkeeping records, vouchers/invoices, accounts, vouchers, business records, statement of income and expense, etc.).

In this regard, the statements marked required are required for the formation and the performance of the contract. We disclose the data to third parties only in the scope of delivery, payment, or as legally permitted or obligated, to legal advisers and authorities. The data are processed in third countries only if required for the purpose of contract performance (e.g. upon customer request, at delivery or payment).

Users have the option to set up a user account, in which they may in particular view their orders. In the scope of registration, users are informed of the required mandatory information. User accounts are not public and cannot be indexed by search engines.

Otherwise, we use external payment service providers on the basis of our legitimate interests pursuant to Article 6 (1) (f) GDPR, in order to offer effective and safe payment methods to our users.

The data processed by the payment service providers include inventory data, such as, for example, the name and the address, bank data, such as, for example, account numbers or credit card numbers, passwords, TANs and check sums, as well as information related to contracts, totals, and recipients. The information is required in order to process the transactions. The data entered, however, will be processed only by, and stored only at, the payment service providers. This means that we do not receive any account or credit card related information, but only information with confirmation or rejection of payment. In certain circumstances, the data are transferred by the payment service provider to credit agencies. Such transfer is done for the purpose of checking identity and creditworthiness. In this regard, we refer to the general conditions and data protection information of the payment service provider.

In this regard we process the same data processed in the scope of performing our contractual services. The basis of the processing is Article 6 (1) (c) GDPR, Article 6 (1) (f) GDPR. The processing affects customers, prospects, business partners, and website visitors. The purpose of and our interest in the processing lies in the administration, financial accounting, office organization, archiving of data, thus tasks serving the upkeep of our business activities, performing our tasks, and providing our services.

In addition, we store, on the basis of our business interests, information with respect to suppliers, organizers, and other business partners, for example for the purpose of taking up contact at a later time. We generally store these in the majority business-related data on a permanent basis.

Participation in affiliate partner programs

Within our online services, we use, on the basis of our legitimate interests (i.e. interest in the analysis, optimizing, and economic operation of our online services) pursuant to Article 6 (1) (f) GDPR, tracking measures customary in the trade, insofar as these are required for the operation of the affiliate system. In the following paragraphs, we inform users of the technical background.

The services offered by our contractual partners may be advertised and linked as well on other websites (so-called affiliate links or after buy systems, if for example links or services of third parties are offered after the conclusion of a contract). The operators of the website concerned receive a commission, if the user follows the affiliate links and subsequently make use of the offers.

In summary, it is required for our online service that we be able to trace whether users interested in affiliate links and/or the goods available at our business, subsequently make use of the offers at the initiative of the affiliate link or our online platform. For this purpose, the affiliate links and our offers are supplemented with certain values which may be placed as a part of the link or otherwise, e.g. in a cookie. The values include in particular the referrer website, time, an online ID of the operator of the website on which the affiliate link was situated, an online ID of the offer concerned, an online ID of the user, and values specific to tracking such as advertising material ID, partner ID, and categorization.

The online IDs of users used by us are pseudonym values. This means that the online ID itself does not contain personal data such as name or e-mail address. The only assist us in determining whether the same user who clicked on an affiliate link, or who, though our website, took an interest in one of our products, made use of the offer, i.e. concluded a contract with the provider. However, the online ID is personal insofar as the online ID together with other user data are available to the partner business and also to us. Only in this way is the partner business able to inform us whether such user accepted the offer and whether we may pay out the bonus.

Affilinet partner program

On the basis of our legitimate interest (i.e. interest in the economic operation of our online services in the meaning of Article 6 (1) (f) GDPR) we participate in the partner program of affilinet GmbH, Sapporobogen 6-8, 80637 Munich, Germany, which was designed to make available a medium for websites, with which advertisement cost reimbursement can be earned by placement of ads and links to Affilinet (so-called affiliate system). Affilinet uses cookies in order to determine the origin of the conclusion of contract. Among others, Affilinet is able to recognize that you clicked the partner link on this website, and subsequently concluded a contract at or through Affilinet.

You can obtain further information on the data use through Affilinet, and rights to object, in the data protection statement of the company: https://www.affili.net/de/footeritem/datenschutz.

The access data include the name of the accessed website, file, date, and time of the access, the amount of data transferred, report on the successful access, browser type and version, the user’s operating system, referrer URL (the site previously visited), IP address, and the requesting provider.

Logfile information will be stored for security reasons (e.g. for solving abuse or fraud activities) for the duration of at most 7 days and will be deleted thereafter. Data needed to be kept further for evidence purposes will not be deleted until final clarification of the incident concerned.

Google Tag Manager

Google Tag Manager is a solution with which we are able to administer so-called website tags using a surface (and thereby including, for example, Google Analytics as well as other Google Marketing services in our Online Services). The tag manager itself (which implements the tags) does not process personal data of users. In view of the processing of personal data of users, we refer to the following information relating to Google services. Usage policy: https://www.google.com/intl/de/tagmanager/use-policy.html.

Google Analytics

On the basis of our legitimate interest (i.e. the interest in the analysis, optimization, and economic operation of our Online Services in the meaning of Article 6 (1) (f) GDPR), we employ Google Analytics, a web analysis service of Google LLC (“Google”). Google uses cookies. The information generated by the cookie on the use of the online services as a rule will be transferred to a server of Google in the USA and will be stored there.

Google is certified under the Privacy Shield treaty and thereby offers a guarantee to comply with European data protection law (https://www.privacyshield.gov/participant?id=a2zt000000001L5AAI&status=Active).

Google will use this information on our behalf in order to evaluate the use of our Online Services by users, in order to compile reports on the activities within this Online Service, and to provide other services to us connected with the use of this Online Service and internet use. In this connection, pseudonymous user profiles of users may be generated from the processed data.

We use Google Analytics only with activated IP anonymization. This means that the IP address of users will be abbreviated by Google within member states of the European Union or in other contract states of the treaty on the European Economic Area. Only in exceptional cases will the full IP address be transferred to a server of Google in the USA and abbreviated there.

The IP address submitted by the browser of the user will not be joined with other data of Google. The users are able to prevent the storage of cookies by a corresponding setting in their browser software: moreover, users may prevent the recording of data generated by the cookie and related to their use of the online services to Google, and the processing of these data by Google, by downloading and installing the browser plugin available at the following link: http://tools.google.com/dlpage/gaoptout?hl=de.

You may obtain additional information on the data use by Google, possibilities of settings, and of objection, in the data protection statement of Google (https://policies.google.com/technologies/ads) and in the settings for the display of advertisement inserts by Google (https://adssettings.google.com/authenticated).

Personal data of users are deleted or anonymized after 26 months.

Google AdWords and conversion measurement

On the basis of our legitimate interest (i.e. the interest in the analysis, optimization, and economic operation of our Online Services in the meaning of Article 6 (1) (f) GDPR), we employ the services of Google LLC, 1600 Amphitheatre Parkway, Mountain View, CA 94043, USA, („Google“).

Google is certified under the Privacy Shield treaty and thereby offers a guarantee to comply with European data protection law (https://www.privacyshield.gov/participant?id=a2zt000000001L5AAI&status=Active).

We use the online marketing procedure Google “AdWords” in order to place ads in the Google ad network (e.g. in search results, in videos, on websites, etc.), so that these are displayed to users who presumably are interested in the ads. This permits us to target ads for and within our online services, in order to present only ads to users, which potentially correspond with their interests. In case a user is shown, for example, ads for products for which the users interested himself on other online services, we refer in this context to “remarketing”. For these purposes, if our website and other websites on which the Google ad network is active, are accessed, a code is executed directly by Google, and so-called (re-)marketing tags (invisible grafics or code, also described as “web beacons”) will be included in the website. With their aid, an individual cookie, i.e. a small file, will be stored on the user’s device (instead of cookies, comparable technologies may be used). In this file it is noted, which websites the user visits, in which content he is interested, and on which offers the users has clicked, and further technical information concerning the browser and the operating system, referring websites, visit time, as well as further information on the use of the online services.

Further we receive an individual “conversion cookie”. The information obtained with the aid of the cookie is used by Google to prepare conversion statistics for us. We are only informed of the anonymous total number of users who clicked on our Online Services and who were referred to a page having a conversion tracking tag. However, we do not receive any information with which users can be personally identified.

User data are processed pseudonymously in the scope of the google ad network. I.e. Google does not store and process, for example, the name or e-mail address of users, but processes the relevant data cookie related within pseudonymous user profiles. This means from Google’s point of view, the ads are not managed and shown for a specifically identified person, but for the cookie holder, regardless of who is this cookie holder. This does not apply where a user has expressly authorized Google to process these data without such anonymization. The information collected on the user is transferred to Google and stored on Google’s servers in the USA.

You may obtain additional information on the data use by Google, possibilities of settings, and of objection, in the data protection statement of Google (https://policies.google.com/technologies/ads) and in the settings for the display of advertisement inserts by Google (https://adssettings.google.com/authenticated).

Facebook is certified under the Privacy Shield treaty and thereby offers a guarantee to comply with European data protection law (https://www.privacyshield.gov/participant?id=a2zt0000000GnywAAC&status=Active).

With the aid of the Facebook pixel, it is possible on the one side to designate visitors of our online services as a target group for the display of ads (so-called “Facebook ads”). Accordingly, we use the Facebook pixel in order to display our Facebook ads only to those users who have shown an interest in our Online Services, or who display certain criteria (e.g. interest in certain themes or products determined with reference to the websites visited), which we forward to Facebook (so-called “custom audience”). With the aid of the Facebook pixel, we also would like to ensure that our Facebook ads are in line with the potential interest of users and do not cause annoyance. With the aid of the Facebook pixel, we are further able to determine the effectiveness of Facebook ads for statistical and market research purposes, by seeing whether users, after a click on a Facebook ad, are forwarded to our website (so-called “conversion”).

Facebook processes data in the scope of Facebook’s data use policy. Accordingly, general information on the display of Facebook ads in Facebook’s data use policy: https://www.facebook.com/policy.php.
