Data protection

Unless otherwise stated below, the provision of your personal data is neither legally nor contractually required, nor is it necessary for entering into a contract. You are not obligated to provide the data. Failure to provide it will have no consequences. This applies only insofar as no other information is provided in the following processing operations.
"Personal data" means any information relating to an identified or identifiable natural person.

Server log files

You can visit our websites without providing any personal information.
Each time you access our website, your internet browser transmits usage data to us or our web host/IT service provider, which is then stored in log files (server log files). This stored data includes, for example, the name of the page accessed, the date and time of access, the IP address, the amount of data transferred, and the requesting provider.
The processing is based on Art. 6 para. 1 lit. f GDPR due to our overriding legitimate interest in ensuring the smooth operation of our website and improving our services.
Your data may be transferred to and processed in third countries outside the EU, in particular Canada and the USA. The EU Commission has issued an adequacy decision for Canada. The EU Commission has also issued an adequacy decision for the USA, the Trans-Atlantic Data Privacy Framework (TADPF). Shopify is not certified under the TADPF. This data transfer is based on contractual obligations comparable to the EU Commission's Standard Contractual Clauses.
