- Amazon Pay
This website offers one or more online payment methods from the following provider: Amazon Payments Europe s.c.a., 38 avenue J.F. Kennedy, L-1855 Luxembourg
When selecting a payment method of the provider where you pay in advance (such as credit card payment), your payment data provided during the ordering process (including name, address, bank and card information, currency, and transaction number) as well as information about the content of your order are forwarded to the provider in accordance with Art. 6 para. 1 lit. b GDPR. The transfer of your data in this case is exclusively for the purpose of payment processing with the provider and only to the extent necessary for this purpose.
- Apple Pay
If you choose the payment method “Apple Pay” from Apple Distribution International (Apple), Hollyhill Industrial Estate, Hollyhill, Cork, Ireland, the payment processing is carried out via the “Apple Pay” function of your device running iOS, watchOS, or macOS by charging 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 authorize a payment, you must enter a code you previously set and verify it using the “Face ID” or “Touch ID” function of your device.
For the purpose of payment processing, the information you provide during the ordering process, along with information about your order, is transmitted to Apple in encrypted form. Apple then encrypts this data again with a developer-specific key before transmitting it to the payment service provider of the payment card stored in Apple Pay to carry out the payment. The encryption ensures that only the website through which the purchase was made can access the payment data. After the payment is made, Apple sends your device account number and a transaction-specific, dynamic security code to the originating website to confirm the payment success.
If personal data is processed during the described transmissions, the processing is carried out solely 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.
When 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’s servers. Apple does not process or store any of this information in a format that can identify you personally. You can disable the option to use Apple Pay on your Mac in your iPhone settings. Go to “Wallet & Apple Pay” and disable “Allow Payments on Mac.”

- HTTP header data and the exact time of access
- Pseudonymous cookie IDs and transaction data (e.g., order value for commission calculation)
The processing is strictly pseudonymized. At no time is your person directly identified.

The cookies used for tracking have a maximum storage duration of 30 days and are then automatically deleted from your device. Specifically, these are primarily the following cookies:
- TRS: A unique ID used to track advertising contacts and correctly assign them to partners.
- TRSCJ: A fallback cookie in which touchpoint information is stored encrypted.
- trs_db_optout: A cookie that permanently stores your objection (opt-out) to tracking in the browser you are using.

12) Retargeting/Remarketing and conversion tracking
12.1 Meta Pixel with enhanced data matching
Within our online offering, we use the "Meta Pixel" service of the following provider in enhanced data matching mode: Meta Platforms Ireland Limited, 4 Grand Canal Quare, Dublin 2, Ireland ("Meta")
When a user clicks on an ad we placed on Facebook 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 via a cookie set by our linked page itself. Additionally, this cookie collects specific customer data such as the email address, which we collect on our website linked to the Facebook or Instagram ad during actions like purchases, account registrations, or sign-ups (enhanced data matching). The cookie is then read and enables the transmission of the data, including the specific customer data, to Meta.
We use "Meta Pixel" with enhanced data matching to make our advertisements (so-called "ads") on Facebook and/or Instagram more effective and to ensure they correspond to users' interests or have certain characteristics (e.g., interests in specific topics or products determined by the visited websites), which we transmit to Meta (so-called "Custom Audiences").
Furthermore, we analyze the effectiveness of our advertisements by tracking whether users are redirected to our website after clicking an ad (conversion). Compared to the standard version of "Meta Pixel," the enhanced data matching feature helps us better measure the effectiveness of our advertising campaigns by capturing more attributed conversions.
All transmitted data is stored and processed by Meta, allowing assignment to the respective user profile, and Meta uses the data for its own advertising purposes according to Meta's data use policies (https://www.facebook.com/about/privacy/) can be used. The data may enable Meta and its partners to display ads on and off Facebook.
All the processing described above, especially setting cookies to read information on the device used, is only carried out if you have given us your explicit consent in accordance with Art. 6 para. 1 lit. a GDPR. You can revoke your consent at any time with effect for the future by disabling 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 transmitted to a Meta server and stored there; in this context, it may also be transferred to servers of Meta Platforms Inc. in the USA.
For data transfers to the USA, the provider has joined the EU-US Data Privacy Framework, which, based on an adequacy decision by the European Commission, ensures compliance with the European data protection level.

12.7 Google Ads Conversion Tracking
This website uses the online advertising program "Google Ads" and, within the framework of Google Ads, the conversion tracking of Google Ireland Limited, Gordon House, 4 Barrow St, Dublin, D04 E5W5, Ireland ("Google").
We use the Google Ads service to draw attention to our attractive offers on external websites using advertising media (so-called Google AdWords). We can determine the success of individual advertising measures in relation to the data from the advertising campaigns. Our goal is to show you advertising that is of interest to you, to make our website more interesting for you, and to achieve a fair calculation of the advertising costs incurred.
The conversion tracking cookie is set when a user clicks on an ad placed by Google Ads. Cookies are small text files stored on your device. These cookies usually expire after 30 days and are not used for personal identification. If 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. Therefore, cookies cannot be tracked across the websites of Google Ads customers. The information collected using the conversion cookie is used to create conversion statistics for Google Ads customers who have opted for conversion tracking. The customers learn the total number of users who clicked on their ad and were redirected to a page tagged with conversion tracking. However, they do not receive any information that would allow them to personally identify users.
As part of using Google Ads, personal data may also be transmitted to the servers of Google LLC in the USA.

To address users whose data we have received in the context of business or business-like relationships in a more interest-based advertising manner, we use a customer matching function within Google Ads. For this purpose, we transmit one or more files with aggregated customer data (mainly email addresses and phone numbers) electronically to Google. Google does not gain access to clear data but automatically encrypts the information in the customer files during the transmission process using a special algorithm. The encrypted information can then only be used by Google to assign it to existing Google accounts set up by the affected individuals. This enables the delivery of personalized advertising across all Google services linked to the respective Google account.
The transmission of customer data to Google only takes place if you have given us your explicit consent in accordance with Art. 6 para. 1 lit. a GDPR. You can revoke this consent at any time with effect for the future.

14) Tools and Miscellaneous
14.1 Cookie Consent Tool
This website uses a so-called "Cookie Consent Tool" to obtain effective user consents for cookies and cookie-based applications that require consent. The "Cookie Consent Tool" is displayed to users as an interactive interface when they visit the site, where consents for specific cookies and/or cookie-based applications can be granted by ticking checkboxes. By using this tool, all cookies/services requiring consent are only loaded if the respective user has given their consent by ticking the checkboxes. This ensures that such cookies are only set on the user's device if consent has been granted.
The tool sets technically necessary cookies to save your cookie preferences. Personal user data is generally not processed in this context.
If, in individual cases, the processing of personal data (such as the IP address) occurs 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 legally compliant, user-specific, and user-friendly consent management for cookies and thus in a legally compliant design of our website.
Another legal basis for processing is also Art. 6 para. 1 lit. c GDPR. As controllers, we are legally obliged to make the use of technically unnecessary cookies dependent on the respective user consent.
If 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.
