4.3 WhatsApp Business

You have the option of contacting us via the WhatsApp messaging service provided by WhatsApp Ireland Limited, 4 Grand Canal Square, Grand Canal Harbour, Dublin 2, Ireland. We use the so-called "Business version" of WhatsApp for this purpose.

If you contact us via WhatsApp regarding a specific transaction (for example, an order you have placed), we will store and use the mobile phone number you use with WhatsApp, as well as your first and last name (if provided), in accordance with Article 6(1)(b) of the GDPR, to process and respond to your inquiry. Based on the same legal basis, we may ask you via WhatsApp to provide further data (order number, customer number, address, or email address) in order to assign your inquiry to a specific transaction.

If you use our WhatsApp contact for general inquiries (e.g., regarding our range of services, availability, or our website), we store and use the mobile phone number you use on WhatsApp and – if provided – your first and last name in accordance with Art. 6 Para. 1 lit. f GDPR on the basis of our legitimate interest in the efficient and timely provision of the requested information.

Your data will only be used to answer your inquiry via WhatsApp. It will not be shared with third parties.

Please note that WhatsApp Business accesses the address book of the mobile device we use for this purpose and automatically transfers phone numbers stored in the address book to a server of its parent company, Meta Platforms Inc., in the USA. For the operation of our WhatsApp Business account, we use a mobile device whose address book contains only the WhatsApp contact data of users who have actually contacted us via WhatsApp.

This ensures that every person whose WhatsApp contact details are stored in our address book has already consented to the transfer of their WhatsApp phone number from the address books of their chat contacts, in accordance with Article 6(1)(a) GDPR, by accepting the WhatsApp Terms of Service upon first using the app on their device. The transfer of data from users who do not use WhatsApp and/or have not contacted us via WhatsApp is therefore excluded.

For information on the purpose and scope of data collection and the further processing and use of data by WhatsApp, as well as your related rights and privacy settings, please refer to WhatsApp's privacy policy: https://www.whatsapp.com/legal/?eea=1#privacy-policy

We have concluded a data processing agreement with the provider, which protects the data of our website visitors and prohibits its transfer to third parties.

The processing described above may involve data transfers 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 level of data protection.

4.4 When you contact us (e.g. via contact form or email), personal data will be processed – exclusively for the purpose of processing and responding to your request and only to the extent necessary.

The legal basis for processing this data is our legitimate interest in responding to your inquiry pursuant to Article 6(1)(f) GDPR. If your contact is aimed at a contract, the additional legal basis for processing is Article 6(1)(b) GDPR. Your data will be deleted when it is clear from the circumstances that the matter has been resolved and provided that no statutory retention obligations apply.

5) Comment function

When you use the comment function on this website, your comment, the date and time it was posted, and your chosen username will be stored and published on this website. Your IP address will also be logged and stored. This IP address is stored for security reasons and in case you, as the person posting the comment, infringes the rights of third parties or posts illegal content. We need your email address to contact you if a third party objects to your published content as being unlawful.

The legal basis for storing your data is Art. 6 para. 1 lit. b and f GDPR. We reserve the right to delete comments if they are objected to as unlawful by third parties.

6) Data processing when opening a customer account

To do so, follow the instructions on this page: https://support.google.com/ads/answer/2662922?hl=de For more information about Google Signals, please see the following link: https://support.google.com/analytics/answer/7532985?hl=de

12) Tools and other items

12.1 Cookie Consent Tool

This website uses a "cookie consent tool" to obtain valid user consent for cookies and cookie-based applications that require consent. The cookie consent tool is displayed to users upon visiting the site as an interactive interface, where consent for specific cookies and/or cookie-based applications can be granted by ticking boxes. By using this tool, all cookies/services requiring consent are only loaded if the respective user grants the corresponding consent by ticking the boxes. This ensures that such cookies are only placed on the user's device if consent has been given.

This tool uses technically necessary cookies to store your cookie preferences. No personal user data is processed in this process.

If, in individual cases, personal data (such as the IP address) is processed for the purpose of storing, assigning or logging cookie settings, this is done in accordance with Art. 6 para. 1 lit. f GDPR on the basis of our legitimate interest in a legally compliant, user-specific and user-friendly consent management for cookies and thus in a legally compliant design of our website.

A further legal basis for processing is Article 6(1)(c) GDPR. As data controllers, we are subject to the legal obligation to make the use of cookies that are not technically necessary dependent on the respective user's consent.

Where necessary, we have concluded a data processing agreement with the provider, which ensures the protection of the data of our website visitors and prohibits unauthorized disclosure to third parties.

Further information about the operator and the settings options of the cookie consent tool can be found directly in the corresponding user interface on our website.

This website uses the search technology service of the following provider: DooFinder SL, Madrid 28037, Rufino González 23 bis, 1º 1, Spain

To provide the search function for articles via the search field and for navigation and filters, the provider collects and stores certain user information (such as the user or session ID) in anonymized form.

If personal data is processed in this context, the processing is carried out in accordance with Art. 6 para. 1 lit. f GDPR on the basis of our legitimate interest in providing a fault-tolerant search for articles and thus in the optimal marketing of our offer.

13) Rights of the data subject

13.1 The applicable data protection law grants you the following rights as a data subject (rights of access and intervention) vis-à-vis the controller with regard to the processing of your personal data, whereby reference is made to the legal basis stated for the respective conditions for exercising these rights:

Right of access pursuant to Art. 15 GDPR;

13.2 Right of objection

If we process your personal data based on our overriding legitimate interest as part of a balancing of interests, you have the right to object to this processing at any time, on grounds relating to your particular situation, with effect for the future.

If you exercise your right to object, we will cease processing the data in question. However, further processing remains possible if we can demonstrate compelling legitimate grounds for the processing which override your interests, fundamental rights and freedoms, or if the processing serves the purpose of establishing, exercising or defending legal claims.

If we process your personal data for direct marketing purposes, you have the right to object at any time to the processing of your personal data for such marketing. You can exercise your right to object as described above.

If you exercise your right to object, we will cease processing the data in question for direct marketing purposes.

14) Duration of storage of personal data

The duration of the storage of personal data is determined by the respective legal basis, the purpose of processing and – if applicable – additionally by the respective statutory retention period (e.g. commercial and tax law retention periods).

When processing personal data on the basis of explicit consent pursuant to Art. 6 para. 1 lit. a GDPR, the data concerned will be stored until you withdraw your consent.

If statutory retention periods exist for data processed in the context of contractual or quasi-contractual obligations on the basis of Art. 6 para. 1 lit. b GDPR, this data will be routinely deleted after the expiry of the retention periods, provided that it is no longer required for the performance of a contract or for initiating a contract and/or we no longer have a legitimate interest in its continued storage.

When processing personal data on the basis of Article 6(1)(f) GDPR, this data will be stored until you exercise your right to object pursuant to Article 21(1) GDPR, unless we can demonstrate compelling legitimate grounds for the processing which override your interests, rights and freedoms, or the processing serves the purpose of establishing, exercising or defending legal claims.

When processing personal data for direct marketing purposes on the basis of Art. 6 para. 1 lit. f GDPR, this data will be stored until you exercise your right to object pursuant to Art. 21 para. 2 GDPR.

Unless otherwise stated in the other information in this declaration regarding specific processing situations, stored personal data will be deleted when it is no longer necessary for the purposes for which it was collected or otherwise processed.
