Terminology used
Relevant legal bases
In accordance with Art. 13 DSGVO, we inform you of the legal basis for our data processing. If the legal basis is not stated in the privacy policy, the following applies: The legal basis for obtaining consent is Art. 6(1)(a) and Art. 7 DSGVO, the legal basis for processing in order to fulfil our services and carry out contractual measures and respond to enquiries is Art. 6(1)(b) DSGVO, the legal basis for processing in order to fulfil our legal obligations is Art. 6(1)(c) DSGVO, and the legal basis for processing in order to protect our legitimate interests is Art. 6(1)(f) DSGVO. In the event that vital interests of the data subject or another natural person make processing of personal data necessary, Art. 6 (1) (d) DSGVO serves as the legal basis.
Security measures
We take appropriate technical and organisational measures to ensure a level of protection appropriate to the risk in accordance with Article 32 of the GDPR, taking into account the state of the art, the costs of implementation and the nature, scope, circumstances and purposes of the processing, as well as the varying likelihood and severity of the risk to the rights and freedoms of natural persons.
The measures include, in particular, ensuring the confidentiality, integrity and availability of data by controlling physical access to the data, as well as access to, input, disclosure, ensuring availability and segregation of the data. We also have procedures in place to ensure the exercise of data subjects' rights, deletion of data and response to data compromise. Furthermore, we already take the protection of personal data into account in the development and selection of hardware, software and procedures, in accordance with the principle of data protection through technology design and through data protection-friendly default settings (Art. 25 DSGVO).
Cooperation with processors and third parties
Transfers to third countries
If we process data in a third country (i.e. outside the European Union (EU) or the European Economic Area (EEA)) or if this is done in the context of using third-party services or disclosing or transferring data to third parties, this is only done if it is done in order to fulfil our (pre-)contractual obligations, on the basis of your consent, due to a legal obligation or on the basis of our legitimate interests. Subject to legal or contractual permissions, we only process or allow the processing of data in a third country if the special requirements of Art. 44 ff. DSGVO are met. This means that the processing is carried out, for example, on the basis of special guarantees, such as the officially recognised determination of a level of data protection corresponding to that of the EU (e.g. for the USA through the "Privacy Shield") or compliance with officially recognised special contractual obligations (so-called "standard contractual clauses").
Rights of the data subjects
Right of withdrawal
You have the right to revoke any consent you have given in accordance with Art. 7 (3) DSGVO with effect for the future.
Right of objection
You may object to the future processing of data concerning you in accordance with Art. 21 DSGVO at any time. The objection can be made in particular against processing for direct marketing purposes.
Cookies and right to object to direct advertising
Data deletion
The data processed by us will be deleted or restricted in its processing in accordance with Articles 17 and 18 DSGVO. Unless expressly stated within the scope of this data protection declaration, the data stored by us will be deleted as soon as it is no longer required for its intended purpose and the deletion does not conflict with any statutory retention obligations. If the data is not deleted because it is required for other and legally permissible purposes, its processing will be restricted. I.e. the data is blocked and not processed for other purposes. This applies, for example, to data that must be retained for reasons of commercial or tax law.
According to legal requirements in Germany, data is stored for 10 years in accordance with §§ 147 para. 1 AO, 257 para. 1 nos. 1 and 4, para. 4 HGB (books, records, management reports, accounting vouchers, commercial books, documents relevant for taxation, etc.) and 6 years in accordance with § 257 para. 1 nos. 2 and 3, para. 4 HGB (commercial letters).
According to legal requirements in Austria, retention takes place in particular for 7 years pursuant to § 132 para. 1 BAO (accounting records, vouchers/invoices, accounts, receipts, business papers, statement of income and expenditure, etc.), for 22 years in connection with real property and for 10 years for records in connection with electronically provided services, telecommunications, radio and television services provided to non-entrepreneurs in EU member states and for which the Mini-One-Stop-Shop (MOSS) is claimed.

This includes the value of the products purchased, product information, an internal ID, the relevant currency and details of the remuneration model agreed with the cooperation partner as well as details of the intermediary itself. The exact calculation of the remuneration for the cooperation partners is carried out by our service provider Webgains, which processes this data on our behalf in accordance with Art. 28 DSGVO.

Google AdWords und Conversion-Messung
Google ist unter dem Privacy-Shield-Abkommen zertifiziert und bietet hierdurch eine Garantie, das europäische Datenschutzrecht einzuhalten (https://www.privacyshield.gov/list).
Wir nutzen das Onlinemarketingverfahren Google "AdWords", um Anzeigen im Google-Werbe-Netzwerk zu platzieren (z.B., in Suchergebnissen, in Videos, auf Webseiten, etc.), damit sie Nutzern angezeigt werden, die ein mutmaßliches Interesse an den Anzeigen haben. Dies erlaubt uns Anzeigen für und innerhalb unseres Onlineangebotes gezielter anzuzeigen, um Nutzern nur Anzeigen zu präsentieren, die potentiell deren Interessen entsprechen. Falls einem Nutzer z.B. Anzeigen für Produkte angezeigt werden, für die er sich auf anderen Onlineangeboten interessiert hat, spricht man hierbei vom „Remarketing“. Zu diesen Zwecken wird bei Aufruf unserer und anderer Webseiten, auf denen das Google-Werbe-Netzwerk aktiv ist, unmittelbar durch Google ein Code von Google ausgeführt und es werden sog. (Re)marketing-Tags (unsichtbare Grafiken oder Code, auch als "Web Beacons" bezeichnet) in die Webseite eingebunden. Mit deren Hilfe wird auf dem Gerät der Nutzer ein individuelles Cookie, d.h. eine kleine Datei abgespeichert (statt Cookies können auch vergleichbare Technologien verwendet werden). In dieser Datei wird vermerkt, welche Webseiten der Nutzer aufgesucht, für welche Inhalte er sich interessiert und welche Angebote der Nutzer geklickt hat, ferner technische Informationen zum Browser und Betriebssystem, verweisende Webseiten, Besuchszeit sowie weitere Angaben zur Nutzung des Onlineangebotes.
Ferner erhalten wir ein individuelles „Conversion-Cookie“. Die mit Hilfe des Cookies eingeholten Informationen dienen Google dazu, Conversion-Statistiken für uns zu erstellen. Wir erfahren jedoch nur die anonyme Gesamtanzahl der Nutzer, die auf unsere Anzeige geklickt haben und zu einer mit einem Conversion-Tracking-Tag versehenen Seite weitergeleitet wurden. Wir erhalten jedoch keine Informationen, mit denen sich Nutzer persönlich identifizieren lassen.
Die Daten der Nutzer werden im Rahmen des Google-Werbe-Netzwerks pseudonym verarbeitet. D.h. Google speichert und verarbeitet z.B. nicht den Namen oder E-Mailadresse der Nutzer, sondern verarbeitet die relevanten Daten cookie-bezogen innerhalb pseudonymer Nutzerprofile. D.h. aus der Sicht von Google werden die Anzeigen nicht für eine konkret identifizierte Person verwaltet und angezeigt, sondern für den Cookie-Inhaber, unabhängig davon wer dieser Cookie-Inhaber ist. Dies gilt nicht, wenn ein Nutzer Google ausdrücklich erlaubt hat, die Daten ohne diese Pseudonymisierung zu verarbeiten. Die über die Nutzer gesammelten Informationen werden an Google übermittelt und auf Googles Servern in den USA gespeichert.
Weitere Informationen zur Datennutzung durch Google, Einstellungs- und Widerspruchsmöglichkeiten, erfahren Sie in der Datenschutzerklärung von Google (https://policies.google.com/technologies/ads) sowie in den Einstellungen für die Darstellung von Werbeeinblendungen durch Google (https://adssettings.google.com/authenticated).
