We make every effort to ensure the security of your data within the scope of applicable data protection laws and technical possibilities.

We use the SSL (Secure Socket Layer) coding system, but would like to point out that data transmission on the Internet (e.g. when communicating by e-mail) may have security gaps. A complete protection of data against access by third parties is not possible.
In order to secure your data, we maintain technical and organizational security measures, which we repeatedly adapt to the state of the art.
We also do not guarantee that our offer will be available at certain times; disruptions, interruptions or failures cannot be excluded. The servers we use are regularly carefully secured.

If and to the extent that we involve third parties in the performance of contracts (such as logistics service providers), we will only receive this personal data to the extent that the transfer is necessary for the corresponding service.

In the event that we outsource certain parts of the data processing (“order processing”), we contractually oblige processors to use personal data only in accordance with the requirements of data protection laws and to ensure the protection of the data subject’s rights.
