5) Contacting us

5.1 WhatsApp Business

You have the option of contacting us via the messaging service WhatsApp of WhatsApp Ireland Limited, Merrion Road, Dublin 4, D04 X2K5, Irland. For this purpose, we use the so-called “Business version” of WhatsApp.

If you contact us via WhatsApp in connection with a specific transaction (for example, an order that has been placed), we store and use the mobile phone number you use with WhatsApp and – if provided – your first name and surname in accordance with Art. 6(1)(b) GDPR in order to process and respond to your request. On the same legal basis, we may ask you via WhatsApp to provide further data (order number, customer number, address or e-mail address) in order to be able to assign your enquiry to a specific transaction.

If you use our WhatsApp contact for general enquiries (for example, about the range of services, availability or our website), we store and use the mobile phone number you use with WhatsApp and – if provided – your first name and surname in accordance with Art. 6(1)(f) GDPR on the basis of our legitimate interest in providing the requested information efficiently and promptly.

Your data are only ever used to respond to your request via WhatsApp. They are not passed on to third parties.

Please note that WhatsApp Business obtains access to the address book of the mobile device we use for this purpose and automatically transfers telephone numbers stored in the address book to a server of the parent company Meta Platforms Inc. in the USA. For the operation of our WhatsApp Business account, we use a mobile device in whose address book only the WhatsApp contact details of those users who have also contacted us via WhatsApp are stored.

This ensures that every person whose WhatsApp contact details are stored in our address book has already consented, in accordance with Art. 6(1)(a) GDPR, to the transmission of his or her WhatsApp telephone number from the address books of his or her chat contacts by accepting the WhatsApp terms of use when first using the app on his or her device. The transmission of data of users who do not use WhatsApp and/or have not contacted us via WhatsApp is excluded in this respect.

For the purpose and scope of the data collection and the further processing and use of the data by WhatsApp, as well as your rights in this regard and the setting options for protecting your privacy, please refer to WhatsApp's privacy notice: https://www.whatsapp.com/legal/?eea=1#privacy-policy

If your contact is aimed at a contract, the additional legal basis for the processing is Art. 6(1)(b) GDPR. Your data will be deleted if it can be inferred from the circumstances that the matter concerned has been conclusively clarified and provided that there are no statutory retention obligations to the contrary.

8.6 Use of payment service providers (payment services)

- Apple Pay

If you choose the payment method “Apple Pay” of Apple Distribution International (Apple), Hollyhill Industrial Estate, Hollyhill, Cork, Irland, payment is processed via the “Apple Pay” function of your end device running iOS, watchOS or macOS by debiting a payment card stored with “Apple Pay”. In doing so, Apple Pay uses security functions that are integrated into the hardware and software of your device in order to protect your transactions. To authorise a payment, it is therefore necessary to enter a code previously set by you and to verify by means of the “Face ID” or “Touch ID” function of your end device.

For the purpose of payment processing, the information you provided during the ordering process, together with the information about your order, is passed on to Apple in encrypted form. Apple then encrypts these data again with a developer-specific key before the data are transmitted to the payment service provider of the payment card stored in Apple Pay in order to carry out the payment. The encryption ensures that only the website via which the purchase was made can access the payment data. After the payment has been made, Apple sends your device account number and a transaction-specific, dynamic security code to the originating website to confirm the success of the payment.

If personal data are processed in the course of the transmissions described, the processing is carried out exclusively for the purpose of payment processing in accordance with Art. 6(1)(b) GDPR.

Apple retains anonymised transaction data, including the approximate purchase amount, the approximate date and the approximate time, as well as an indication of whether the transaction was completed successfully. The anonymisation completely excludes any reference to a person. Apple uses the anonymised data to improve “Apple Pay” and other Apple products and services.

If you use Apple Pay on the iPhone or Apple Watch to complete a purchase that you made via Safari on the Mac, the Mac and the authorisation device communicate via an encrypted channel on Apple's servers. Apple does not process or store any of this information in a format by which you can be personally identified. You can deactivate the option of using Apple Pay on your Mac in the settings of your iPhone. 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” of Google Ireland Limited, Gordon House, 4 Barrow St, Dublin, D04 E5W5, Irland (“Google”), payment is processed via the “Google Pay” application of your mobile device running at least Android 4.4 (“KitKat”) and equipped with an NFC function by debiting a payment card stored with Google Pay or a payment system verified there (e.g. PayPal). To authorise a payment via Google Pay of more than €25, your mobile device must first be unlocked using the verification measure set up in each case (such as facial recognition, password, fingerprint or pattern).

For the purpose of payment processing, the information you provided during the ordering process, together with the information about your order, is passed on to Google. Google then transmits your payment information stored in Google Pay to the originating website in the form of a transaction number assigned once only, with which a completed payment is verified. This transaction number does not contain any information about the real payment data of your means of payment stored with Google Pay, but is created and transmitted as a numerical token valid once only. In all transactions via Google Pay, Google acts merely as an intermediary for processing the payment transaction. The transaction is carried out exclusively in the relationship between the user and the originating website by debiting the means of payment stored with Google Pay.

If personal data are processed in the course of the transmissions described, the processing is carried out exclusively for the purpose of payment processing in accordance with Art. 6(1)(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 that you have attached to the transaction, the name and e-mail address of the seller and buyer or of the sender and recipient, the payment method used, your description of the reason for the transaction and, where applicable, the offer associated with the transaction.

According to Google, this processing is carried out exclusively in accordance with Art. 6(1)(f) GDPR on the basis of the legitimate interest in proper accounting, the verification of transaction data and the optimisation and functional maintenance of the Google Pay service.

Google also reserves the right to merge the processed transaction data with further information that is collected and stored by Google when other Google services are used.

10) Retargeting/remarketing and conversion tracking

Meta Pixel

Within our online offering, we use the service “Meta Pixel” of the following provider: Meta Platforms Ireland Limited, Merrion Road, Dublin 4, D04 X2K5, Irland (“Meta”)

If a user clicks on an advertisement placed by us on Facebook and/or Instagram, a parameter is added to the URL of our linked page with the help of “Meta Pixel”. After the redirect, this URL parameter is then entered in the user's browser by a cookie which our linked page itself sets.

On the one hand, this enables Meta to determine the visitors to our online offering as a target group for the display of advertisements (so-called “ads”). Accordingly, we use the service in order to display the Facebook and/or Instagram ads placed by us only to those users who have also shown an interest in our online offering or who have certain characteristics (e.g. interests in certain topics or products which are determined on the basis of the websites visited) which we transmit to Meta (so-called “custom audiences”).

On the other hand, the “Meta Pixel” can be used to track whether users were redirected to our website after clicking on an advertisement and which actions they carry out there (so-called “conversion tracking”).

The data collected are anonymous for us, i.e. they do not allow us to draw any conclusions about the identity of the users. However, the data are 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 the processing described above, in particular the setting of cookies for reading out information on the end device used, is only carried out if you have given us your express consent to this in accordance with Art. 6(1)(a) GDPR. You can withdraw your 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 which ensures the protection of our site visitors' data and prohibits unauthorised disclosure to third parties.

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

This integration ensures that, when a page of our website containing such plugins is accessed, no connection is yet established with the provider's servers.

If you are logged in to an existing user profile on the provider's social network, information on interactions carried out via the plugins is also published there and displayed to your contacts.

12) Tools and miscellaneous

Cookie consent tool
