We, artec Sportgeräte GmbH, represented by the managing directors Dirk Beinkämpen and Frank Tellmann, Elf Stücken 33, 49324 Melle, take the concerns of data protection seriously and would like to ensure that your privacy is protected when using our website under the domains artec-sportgeraete.de and shop.artec-sportgeraete.de. We have therefore created this privacy statement to explain how we handle your data. We reserve the right to adjust the content from time to time. It is therefore recommended that you take note of our data processing statement again at regular intervals.

About the structure of the data protection declaration:

Under II. you will find general information on the scope of the processing of your personal data, the legal basis for data processing, the storage period as well as deletion and, in particular, your rights as a data subject.

Under III. we provide information on the responsible person.

Under IV. we describe which personal data is collected when you visit our website.

If you wish to use our website for more than purely informational purposes, you will generally be required to submit further personal data, which we use to provide the respective service. We address the special forms of use of the website (e.g. as a web shop, the contact form, etc.) and the associated data processing under V.

II. General information on data processing

1. Definitions

“Personal data” are all data that contain information about personal and factual circumstances of an identified or identifiable natural person. This includes, for example, the name, e-mail address, residential address, gender, date of birth, telephone number or age. A legal definition can be found in Art. 4 No. 1 of the General Data Protection Regulation (hereinafter DS-GVO).

“Processing” of personal data includes, but is not limited to, its collection, recording, organization, ordering, storage, adaptation or alteration, retrieval, consultation, use, disclosure by transmission, dissemination or otherwise making available, alignment or combination, restriction, erasure or destruction. A legal definition can be found in Art. 4 No. 2 DS-GVO.

2. Scope of the processing of personal data

We process your personal data only with your consent or if permitted by a law. In some cases, we use external service providers to process your data. These have been carefully selected and commissioned by us, are bound by our instructions and are regularly checked.

3. Legal basis for the processing of personal data

Insofar as we obtain the consent of the data subject for the processing of personal data, Art. 6 (1)(a) GDPR serves as the legal basis for the processing of personal data. Art. 6 (1)(b) GDPR serves as the legal basis for the processing of personal data required for the performance of a contract to which the data subject is a party. This shall also apply to processing operations necessary for the implementation of pre-contractual measures. Insofar as the processing of personal data is necessary to fulfil a legal obligation to which we are subject, Art. 6 (1)(c) GDPR serves as the legal basis. In the event that vital interests of the data subject or another natural person necessitate the processing of personal data, Art. 6 (1)(d) GDPR serves as the legal basis. If the processing is necessary to safeguard a legitimate interest of us or a third party and if the interests, fundamental rights and fundamental freedoms of the data subject do not outweigh the first-mentioned interest, Art. 6 (1)(f) GDPR serves as the legal basis for the processing.

4. Data erasure and storage period

The personal data of the data subject will be deleted or blocked as soon as the purpose of storage ceases to apply. In addition, storage may take place if this has been provided for by the European or national legislator in Union regulations, laws or other provisions to which the controller is subject. Data will also be blocked or deleted if a storage period prescribed by the aforementioned standards expires, unless there is a need for further storage of the data for the conclusion or performance of a contract.

5. Rights of the data subject

• Right to rectification or deletion (Art. 16, Art. 17 GDPR),

2. Objection or revocation against the processing of your data

If you have given your consent to the processing of your data, you may revoke it at any time. Such revocation affects the permissibility of the processing of your personal data after you have expressed it to us.

Insofar as we base the processing of your personal data on the balance of interests, you may object to the processing. This is the case if the processing is not necessary, in particular, for the performance of a contract with you, which is shown by us in each case in the following description of the functions. When exercising such an objection, we ask you to explain the reasons why we should not process your personal data as we have done. In the event of your justified objection, we will review the situation and either discontinue or adjust the data processing or show you our compelling reasons worthy of protection on the basis of which we will continue the processing.

IV. Collection of personal data when visiting our website

1. Informative website use

1. Description and scope of data processing

In the case of merely informational use of our website, i.e. if you do not register or otherwise transmit information to us, we only collect the personal data that your browser transmits to our server. These are:

• IP address (anonymized)
• Date and time of the request
• Time zone difference to Greenwich Mean Time (GMT)
• Content of the request (specific page)
• Access status/HTTP status code
• Amount of data transferred in each case
• Website from which the request comes
• Browser
• Operating system and its interface
• language and version of the browser software.

The data is also stored in the log files of our system. Storage of this data together with other personal data of the user does not take place.

2. Legal basis for data processing

The legal basis for the temporary storage of data and log files is Art. 6 (1)(f) GDPR.

3. Purpose of data processing

The collection of personal data, as described above, when you visit our website is technically necessary in order to display our website to you and to guarantee its stability and security. These purposes also include our legitimate interest in data processing pursuant to Art. 6 (1)(f) GDPR.

4. Duration of storage

The data is deleted as soon as it is no longer required to achieve the purpose for which it was collected. In the case of the collection of data for the provision of the website, this is the case when the respective session has ended. In the case of storage of data in log files, this is the case after sixty days at the latest. Storage beyond this period is possible. In this case, the IP addresses of the users are deleted or alienated, so that an assignment of the calling client is no longer possible.

5. Possibilities of objection and removal

Since the collection of personal data described above is technically necessary when you visit our website in order to display our website to you and to guarantee its stability and security, you have no right of objection in this respect.

2. Use of cookies

1. Description and scope of data processing

In addition to the previously mentioned data, cookies are stored on your computer when you use our website. Cookies are small text files that are assigned to the browser you are using and stored on your hard drive and through which certain information flows to the body that sets the cookies (in this case, through us). Cookies cannot execute programs or transmit viruses to your computer. There are different types of cookies, namely:

• Transient cookies (temporary use).
• Persistent cookies (temporary use)
• Third-party cookies (from third-party providers)
• Flash cookies (permanent use).

This website uses the aforementioned cookies to the following extent:

• Transient cookies are automatically deleted when you close the browser. These include, in particular, session cookies. These store a so-called session ID, with which various requests of your browser can be assigned to the common session. This allows your computer to be recognized when you return to our website. The session cookies are deleted when you log out or close the browser.
• We will discuss third-party cookies in more detail as part of the description of the web analytics and social media plug-ins we use.
• Persistent cookies and flash cookies are not used.

On the one hand, we use cookies to make our website more user-friendly. Some elements of our website require that the calling browser can also be identified after the change of the page. The cookies used for this purpose store, for example, language settings, log-in information or information on whether (when using our online shop function) items are in your virtual shopping cart.

On the other hand, we also use cookies, which enable us to analyse the surfing behaviour of the users of our website. In this way, data can be transmitted, for example, about the search terms entered, the frequency of page views or the use of website functions. The user data collected in this way is pseudonymised by technical precautions. Therefore, it is no longer possible to assign the data to the calling user. The data are not stored together with other personal data of the users.

When you visit our website, an information banner informs you about the use of cookies for analysis purposes and refers you to this privacy statement. In this context, there is also an indication as to how the storage of cookies in the browser settings can be prevented.

As an alternative to the browser plugin or within browsers on mobile devices, please click on the following link to set an opt-out cookie that will prevent the collection within this site in the future (this opt-out cookie works only in this browser and only for this domain, delete your cookies in this browser, you must click the link again): Disable Google Analytics

3. Use of Google Analytics

1. Description and scope of data processing

This website uses Google Analytics, a web analytics service provided by Google, Inc. (“Google”). Google Analytics uses “cookies”, which are text files placed on your computer, to help the website analyze how users use the site. The information generated by the cookie about your use of this website is usually transmitted to a Google server in the USA and stored there. In the case of activation of IP anonymization on this website, however, your IP address will be truncated beforehand by Google within member states of the EU or in other contracting states of the Agreement on the European Economic Area. Only in exceptional cases will the full IP address be transmitted to a Google server in the USA and shortened there. For these exceptional cases in which personal data is transferred to the USA, Google has submitted to the EU-US Privacy Shield, https://www.privacy-shield.gov/EU-US-Framework.

On behalf of the operator of this website, Google will use this information for the purpose of evaluating your use of the website, compiling reports on website activity and providing other services relating to website activity and internet usage to the website operator.

This website uses Google Analytics with the extension “_anonymizeIp()”. This means that IP addresses are processed in abbreviated form, thus excluding the possibility of personal references. Insofar as the data collected about you is related to a person, this is therefore immediately excluded and the personal data is thus immediately deleted. The IP address transmitted by your browser as part of Google Analytics will not be merged with other Google data.

2. Legal basis for data processing

The legal basis for the processing of personal data using Google Analytics is Art. 6 (1)(f) GDPR.

3. Purpose of data processing

In these purposes, our legitimate interest also lies in the processing of personal data pursuant to Art. 6 (1)(f) GDPR.

4. Duration of storage, possibility of objection and removal

You may refuse the use of cookies by selecting the appropriate settings on your browser, however, please note that if you do this you may not be able to use the full functionality of this website.

V. Special forms of use of our website

1. Contact form and e-mail contact

1. Description and scope of data processing

A contact form is available on our website, which can be used for electronic contact. If a user takes advantage of this option, the data entered in the input mask (name, e-mail address, subject) is transmitted to us, stored and anonymized after one day and retained for 60 days. During anonymization, all data on the sender/recipient etc. is removed; only the data on the time of sending and information on processing (queue ID, status “not sent”) is retained.

During the sending process you will be referred to this privacy policy. By sending your message, you consent to the processing of the transmitted data. Alternatively, it is possible to contact us via the e-mail address provided. In this case, the user’s personal data transmitted with the e-mail will be stored. In this context, the data will not be passed on to third parties. The data is used exclusively for processing the conversation.

The legal basis for processing the data transmitted in the course of sending an e-mail is Art. 6 (1)(f) GDPR. If the purpose of the e-mail contact is to conclude a contract, the additional legal basis for the processing is Article 6 (1)(b) GDPR.

3. Purpose of the data processing

The processing of the personal data from the input mask serves us solely to process the contact. In the case of contact by e-mail, this also constitutes the necessary legitimate interest in processing the data. The other personal data processed during the sending process serve to prevent misuse of the contact form and to ensure the security of our information technology systems.

4. Duration of storage

The data is deleted as soon as it is no longer required to achieve the purpose for which it was collected. For the personal data from the input mask of the contact form and those sent by e-mail, this is the case when the respective conversation with the user has ended.

The additional personal data collected during the sending process will be deleted after a period of 60 days at the latest.

5. Possibility of opposition and elimination

2. Newsletter

1. Description and scope of data processing

On our website there is the possibility to subscribe to a free newsletter after a consent to be given by you. The goods about which the newsletter should behave in the future are named in the declaration of consent. For the registration to our newsletter we use the so-called double-opt-in procedure. This means that after your registration we will send you an e-mail to the specified e-mail address, in which we ask you to confirm that you wish to receive the newsletter. If you do not confirm your registration within 24 hours, your information will be blocked and automatically deleted after one month. In addition, we store your respective IP addresses used and times of registration and confirmation. The purpose of this procedure is to be able to prove your registration and, if necessary, to clarify a possible misuse of your personal data.

The only mandatory information for sending the newsletter is your e-mail address. The provision of further, separately marked data is voluntary and will be used to address you personally. After your confirmation, we store your e-mail address for the purpose of sending the newsletter.

When sending the newsletter, we evaluate user behavior. For this evaluation, the e-mails sent contain so-called web beacons or tracking pixels, which are single-pixel image files stored on our website. For the evaluations, we link the data mentioned in IV. 1. and the web beacons with your e-mail address and an individual ID. Links contained in the newsletter also contain this ID. The data is collected exclusively pseudonymously, i.e. the IDs are not linked to your other personal data, and direct personal reference is excluded.

The data processed for sending newsletters will not be passed on to third parties.

2. Legal basis for data processing

The legal basis for the processing of data by the user after registration for the newsletter is Art. 6 (1)(a) GDPR.

The legal basis for the newsletter tracking is Art. 6 (1)(f) GDPR.

3. Purpose of the data processing

The collection of the user’s e-mail address serves to deliver the newsletter. Any further data provided will be used to address the user personally in the newsletter. The collection of other personal data (used IP addresses and dates of registration and confirmation) serves to prevent or clarify misuse of the services or the e-mail address used.

We operate newsletter tracking in order to optimise our newsletters, which also constitutes our legitimate interest in the processing of personal data pursuant to Art. 6 (1)(f) GDPR.

4. Duration of storage

The data is deleted as soon as it is no longer required to achieve the purpose for which it was collected. Accordingly, the user’s e-mail address is stored for as long as the subscription to the newsletter is active. The other personal data collected as part of the registration process is usually deleted after a period of seven days.

The data collected as part of the newsletter tracking will be stored as long as you have subscribed to the newsletter. After unsubscribing, we store the data purely statistically and anonymously.

5. Possibility of objection and removal

You can revoke your consent to the sending of the newsletter at any time and unsubscribe from the newsletter. You can declare the revocation by clicking on the link provided in every newsletter e-mail, by e-mail to info@artec-sportgeraete.de or a message to the contact data provided under III.

You can object to newsletter tracking at any time by clicking on the separate link provided in each email or by informing us using the contact details provided in III. of the Privacy Policy.

After your objection, we will no longer engage in newsletter tracking with your personal data.

You can also prevent newsletter tracking by deactivating the display of images by default in your e-mail program. In this case, the newsletter will not be fully displayed to you and you may not be able to use all functions. If you display the images manually, the tracking shown above will take place.

3. Use of our webshop

1. Scope of the processing of personal data

If you would like to order in our webshop, we ask for various personal data. Mandatory data necessary for the processing of contractsFirst name, last name, e-mail address, address, zip code, city, country, telephone) are marked separately, other data (company, state, fax) are voluntary. We process the data you provide to process your order. Your data will not be passed on to third parties without your express consent. The only exceptions to this are our service partners whom we need to process the contractual relationship or service providers whom we use in the context of order processing. These are, for example, the following categories of recipients: shipping service providers, merchandise management service providers, payment service providers, service providers for order processing, web hosts, IT service providers, dropshipping merchants. In all cases, we strictly observe the legal requirements. The scope of data transfer is limited to a minimum.

With regard to payment service providers, we additionally point out the following:

• PayPal

We have integrated components from PayPal on this website. PayPal is an online payment service provider (European operating company: PayPal (Europe) S.à.r.l. & Cie. S.C.A., 22-24 Boulevard Royal, 2449 Luxembourg, Luxembourg). Payments are processed via so-called PayPal accounts (virtual private or business accounts). In addition, PayPal gives you the option of processing virtual payments via credit cards if you do not maintain a PayPal account. A PayPal account is managed via an e-mail address. An account number in the conventional sense does not exist. With PayPal, one can initiate or receive online payments to third parties. PayPal also assumes trustee functions and offers buyer protection services.

If the data subject selects the payment option “PayPal” during their order process in our store, data of this person is automatically transmitted to PayPal. By selecting the payment method “PayPal”, the data subject consents to the transmission of his personal data required for payment processing.

As a rule, the following data of the data subject are transmitted: first name, last name, address, e-mail address, IP address, phone number, cell phone number, data regarding the specific order or other data necessary for payment processing.

The purpose of the data transfer is both payment processing and fraud prevention. We will transmit personal data to PayPal in particular if there is a legitimate interest in the transmission. Under certain circumstances, the personal data exchanged between us and PayPal will be transmitted by PayPal to credit agencies for the purpose of checking identity and creditworthiness.

PayPal also discloses the personal data to affiliated companies, service providers or subcontractors, if applicable, to the extent necessary for the provision of services or if the data is to be processed on behalf.

The data subject may at any time revoke PayPal’s consent to the handling of his or her personal data, whereby the revocation does not affect those personal data that must be compulsorily processed for (contractual) payment processing.

The privacy policy of PayPal can be found at: https://paypal.com/de/webapps/mpp/ua/privacy-full.

• Sofortüberweisung (immediate transfer)

We have also integrated components from the payment service provider Sofortüberweisung (SOFORT GmbH, Fußbergstraße 1, 82131 Gauting) on our website. The user can pay cashless for products on the Internet by means of instant transfer. Through the technical procedure of Sofortüberweisung, the online merchant (in this case we) immediately receives a confirmation of payment, so that we can then begin delivery, taking into account the respective delivery times. If the payment option “Sofortüberweisung” is selected, the data of the data subject are automatically transferred to Sofortüberweisung, whereby the selection includes the user’s corresponding consent to the data transfer. The user transmits his PIN and the TAN to SOFORT GmbH. This then first performs a technical check of the account balance and retrieves further data to check the account coverage and then makes the transfer to us. We will then receive an automated message from her.

Between Sofortüberweisung and us the following data of the data subject is exchanged: first name, surname, address, e-mail address, IP address, telephone number, mobile phone number or other data necessary for payment processing.

The purpose of the data transfer is both to process payments and to prevent fraud. We will also transfer other personal data so Sofortüberweisung if there is a legitimate interest in the transfer. Under certain circumstances, the personal data exchanged between us and Sofortüberweisung may be transferred by Sofortüberweisung to credit agencies for the purpose of identity and credit checks.

Sofortüberweisung also passes on the personal data to affiliated companies, service providers or subcontractors, if applicable, to the extent necessary for the provision of the service or if the data are to be processed in the order.

The data subject may at any time revoke his or her consent to the handling of his or her personal data at Sofortüberweisung, whereby the revocation does not affect those personal data which must be processed for (contractual) payment processing.

The privacy policy of Sofortüberweisung can be found at: https://www.sofort.com/ger-DE/datenschutzerklaerung-sofort-gmbh/.

You can voluntarily create a customer account through which we can store your data for future purchases. When you create an account under “customer login”, the data provided by you (here, too, there are both marked mandatory data and voluntary data) is revocably stored.

We reserve the right to use the data you provide when using our web shop to send you interesting offers and information about our products by post.

We will then stop processing this data.
