Data Privacy

§ 1 General

We process your personal data (e.g. title, name, address, e-mail address, telephone number) only in accordance with the provisions of German data protection law and the data protection law of the European Union (EU). In addition to the purposes of processing, recipients, legal bases and storage periods, the following provisions also inform you about your rights and about the controller responsible for processing your data. This privacy policy applies only to our websites. If you are redirected to other websites via links on our pages, please refer to those websites for information on how they handle your data.

§ 2 Contacting us

(1) Purpose of processing

We process the personal data you provide to us by e-mail, contact form, etc. in order to answer and handle your enquiries. You are not obliged to provide us with your personal data. However, without your e-mail address we cannot reply to you by e-mail.

(2) Legal bases

a) If you have given us your express consent to process your data, Art. 6(1)(a) GDPR is the legal basis for this processing.

b) If we process your data in order to take steps prior to entering into a contract, Art. 6(1)(b) GDPR is the legal basis.

c) In all other cases (in particular when a contact form is used), Art. 6(1)(f) GDPR is the legal basis.

RIGHT TO OBJECT: You have the right to object at any time, on grounds relating to your particular situation, to processing that is based on Art. 6(1)(f) GDPR and is not carried out for direct marketing purposes. In the case of direct marketing, however, you may object to the processing at any time without giving reasons.

(3) Legitimate interest

Our legitimate interest in the processing is to communicate with you quickly and to answer your enquiries cost-effectively. If you provide us with your postal address, we reserve the right to use it for direct marketing by post. You can protect your interest in data protection by sharing as little data as possible (e.g. by using a pseudonym).

(4) Categories of recipients

Hosting providers; shipping service providers in the case of direct marketing

(5) Storage period

Your data will be deleted once the circumstances indicate that your enquiry or the matter concerned has been conclusively resolved.

If, however, a contract is concluded, we will retain the data required under commercial and tax law for the statutory periods, i.e. generally ten years (cf. Section 257 of the German Commercial Code (HGB), Section 147 of the German Fiscal Code (AO)).

(6) Right of withdrawal

Where processing is based on your consent, you have the right to withdraw your consent at any time.

§ 3 Information about cookies

(1) Purpose of processing

This website uses technically necessary cookies. These are small text files that are stored in or by your web browser on your computer system.

(2) Legal basis

The legal basis for this processing is Art. 6(1)(f) GDPR.

(3) Legitimate interest

Our legitimate interest is the functionality of our website. The user data collected by technically necessary cookies is not used to create user profiles. This protects your interest in data protection.

(4) Storage period

Technically necessary cookies are usually deleted when you close your browser. Persistently stored cookies have lifetimes ranging from a few minutes to several years.

(5) RIGHT TO OBJECT

If you do not want these cookies to be stored, please disable the acceptance of these cookies in your web browser. However, this may restrict the functionality of our website. You can also delete persistently stored cookies at any time via your browser.

§ 3a Embedding of YouTube videos

Our website embeds videos from the YouTube platform. The provider is Google Ireland Limited, Gordon House, Barrow Street, Dublin 4, Ireland. For data protection reasons, YouTube content on this website is initially deactivated. A connection to YouTube is only established when you actively click on the video and thereby consent, in accordance with Art. 6(1)(a) GDPR, to data being transferred to YouTube/Google. After activation, a connection to YouTube's servers is established and personal data (e.g. your IP address) may be transmitted to Google. This may involve a transfer to the USA. For further information, please see Google's privacy policy: https://policies.google.com/privacy

You can withdraw your consent at any time with effect for the future.

§ 3b Embedding of OpenStreetMap

In the dealer directory (Store Locator), this website uses the map service OpenStreetMap to display locations and to search for locations. The provider is the OpenStreetMap Foundation (OSMF), St John’s Innovation Centre, Cowley Road, Cambridge, CB4 0WS, United Kingdom.

The map and the location search are only loaded after you have given your consent in accordance with Art. 6(1)(a) GDPR. Personal data is then transmitted to servers of the OSMF or its technical service providers, in particular your IP address, browser information and, when you search, the place or postcode you entered. The European Commission has issued an adequacy decision for the United Kingdom.

The map library (Leaflet) is loaded directly from our server. No data is transmitted to third parties in this process.

For further information, please see the privacy policy of the OpenStreetMap Foundation: https://osmfoundation.org/wiki/Privacy_Policy

You can withdraw your consent at any time via the cookie settings.

Using the “Route” button, you can open route planning on Google Maps in a new window. Data is only transmitted to Google once you click this button; Google's privacy policy applies.

§ 4 Your rights as a data subject

If your personal data is processed, you are a data subject within the meaning of the GDPR and you have the following rights against us as the controller:

1. Right of access

Under Art. 15 GDPR, you can request information about your personal data processed by us.

2. Right to rectification

If the information concerning you is (no longer) accurate, you can request rectification under Art. 16 GDPR. If your data is incomplete, you can request that it be completed.

3. Right to erasure

You can request the erasure of your personal data under the conditions of Art. 17 GDPR.

4. Right to restriction of processing

Within the scope of Art. 18 GDPR, you have the right to request that the processing of data concerning you be restricted.

5. Right to data portability

Under Art. 20 GDPR, you have the right to receive the personal data concerning you that you have provided to us in a structured, commonly used and machine-readable format, or to request that it be transmitted to another controller.

6. Right to withdraw consent under data protection law

Under Art. 7(3) GDPR, you have the right to withdraw your consent under data protection law at any time. This does not affect the lawfulness of processing carried out on the basis of your consent before its withdrawal.

7. Right to lodge a complaint with a supervisory authority

If you believe that the processing of personal data concerning you infringes the GDPR, you have the right under Art. 77 GDPR to lodge a complaint with a supervisory authority (in particular in the Member State of your habitual residence, your place of work or the place of the alleged infringement).

Please also note your right to object under Art. 21 GDPR:

a) General: objection with reasons required

If personal data concerning you is processed

- to protect our overriding legitimate interest (legal basis under Art. 6(1)(f) GDPR), or

- in the public interest (legal basis under Art. 6(1)(e) GDPR),

you have the right to object to the processing at any time on grounds relating to your particular situation; this also applies to profiling based on the provisions of the GDPR.
If you object, we will no longer process the personal data concerning you unless we can demonstrate compelling legitimate grounds for the processing which override your interests, rights and freedoms, or the processing serves the establishment, exercise or defence of legal claims.

b) Special case of direct marketing: a simple objection is sufficient

If personal data concerning you is processed for direct marketing purposes, you have the right to object to this processing at any time without giving reasons; this also applies to profiling to the extent that it is related to such direct marketing.

If you object to processing for direct marketing purposes, the personal data concerning you will no longer be processed for these purposes.
