Thank you for your interest in our portal - www.schiesser.biz - and our company. We want you to feel safe and comfortable when visiting our web pages. Therefore, protecting your personal data is very important to us. We have taken all possible technical and organisational measures to ensure that the data protection regulations as per the EU General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR), the Federal Data Protection Act (BDSG) and other legal regulations are complied with by us as well as by service providers.
The following privacy policy is intended to inform you about our handling of the collection, use, processing and disclosure of your personal data.
In general, you can visit our websites without providing any personal data, e.g. if you only want to find out about our products and visit the relevant pages.

The following data are logged: name of the retrieved file, date and time of the query, transferred quantity of data, report of successful query, web browser and inquiring domain. However, no personal data are transmitted by you and this information is stored separately from any personal data that may be transmitted. The IP addresses of the enquiring computers are also stored.

2. Data Processing
Personal data are pieces of information pertaining to your identity. These include information such as your name, address, phone number, date of birth and email address.
Below you will find detailed information about which of your data we process and for what purposes.
3. Purpose, use and disclosure of personal data as well as the respective legal bases
If you provide us with personal data, we will process and use them to process your order(s) (the legal basis for this is Art. 6 para. 1 lit. b or f GDPR), to answer your enquiries (the legal basis for this is Art. 6 para. 1 lit. b or f GDPR), for advertising measures (the legal basis for this is Art. 6 para. 1 lit. a GDPR), in particular the sending of newsletters, if you have separately agreed to this, in order to provide you with access to certain information or offers or for the use of information and communication systems as well as within the scope of legal requirements (the legal basis for this is Art. 6 para. 1 lit. c and f GDPR) or in order to enforce or protect our general terms and conditions or other agreements (the legal basis for this is Art. 6 para. 1 lit. f GDPR).
Our legitimate interests, where lit. f is specified above, are to establish, conduct and, where appropriate, terminate a business relationship with you and to represent our own interests. Your personal data will only be transferred or disclosed to third parties if this is necessary for the fulfilment of your order, e.g. for the shipping of your ordered goods or if you have given your prior consent to the transfer. These third parties are not permitted to use the data for other purposes. We also reserve the right to match or complete your personal data with data that we receive from third parties for the same purpose.
We will disclose personal data about you if we are legally obliged to do so (the legal basis for this is Art. 6 para. 1 lit. c GDPR), or if we are obliged to do so by a court decision, or if disclosure is necessary to enforce or protect our general terms and conditions or other agreements (the legal basis for this is Art. 6 para. 1 lit. f GDPR). This applies accordingly with respect to the processing of the data. The data will not be disclosed for commercial purposes.
Our employees and the service providers engaged by us are bound by us to secrecy and observance of the provisions of the current data protection laws. Access to personal data by our employees is limited to those employees who require the data for their work. We endeavour to take all possible technical and organisational measures to store your personal data so that they are not accessible to third parties. When communicating via email we cannot guarantee full data integrity. We therefore recommend that you send us any confidential information by post.

When you sign up for the newsletter, your email address will be used for our own advertising purposes with your consent. You can find further information about the newsletter under point 6.

When you click on “register”, your data will be saved in our database. After registering, you will receive an automatic email confirmation that your customer account has been set up. The email address you enter and the password you choose will serve as access identification for the customer account. You can edit your information in your customer account at any time. The access identification and password must be kept secret and not be shared with third parties. You are obliged to protect your access identification and password against unauthorised access by third parties. The above-mentioned address information for orders is also saved in your customer account.

We will grant this request for deletion without delay, but we will of course need to observe any applicable legal retention obligations.
You can also request the restriction of processing of your personal data provided that you contest the accuracy of the data and the processing is unlawful, but you object to the erasure of said data and we no longer require the data but you require them to assert, exercise, or defend legal claims or you have objected to processing pursuant to Art. 21 GDPR.

13. Use of analytics tools
Econda Analytics
In our online shop, data are collected and stored for marketing and optimisation purposes using technologies from ECONDA GmbH (www.econda.de). These data can be used to create usage profiles under a pseudonym. Session cookies can be used for this purpose, but they only collect and store data in pseudonymous form. The data are not used to personally identify visitors of this website and are not merged with data about the bearer of the pseudonym. You can object to the collection and storage of your data at any time with future effect.
Econda ARP
In order to design and optimise this website in line with requirements, anonymised data are collected and stored by solutions and technologies of econda GmbH and usage profiles are created from these data using pseudonyms. For this purpose, cookies may be used to enable recognition of an Internet browser. Usage profiles are not merged with data concerning the bearer of the pseudonym without the express consent of the visitor. In particular, IP addresses are made unrecognisable immediately after receipt, which means that it is not possible to assign usage profiles to IP addresses. User behaviour analysis is based on Art. 6 Para. 1 lit. f GDPR. The website operator has a legitimate interest in the anonymised analysis of user behaviour to optimise its website as well as its advertising. Visitors to this website can object to this data collection and storage for the future at any time here. The objection only applies to the device and the web browser on which it was given. Please repeat the process on all devices if necessary. If you delete the opt-out cookie, requests will be sent to econda again.
