Data storage
We would like to point out that for the purpose of a simpler shopping process and for later contract processing, the web shop operator stores the IP data of the subscriber as part of cookies, as well as the buyer’s name, address and, depending on the payment method, credit card number, Maestro card data or account number of the buyer . In addition, we also store the following data for the purpose of processing the contract: date of birth, telephone number. The data you provide are required to fulfill the contract or to carry out pre-contractual measures. Without this data, we cannot conclude the contract with you. There is no data transfer to third parties, with the exception of the transfer of the credit card data to the processing bank / payment service provider for the purpose of debiting the purchase price, to the transport company / shipping company commissioned by us to deliver the goods and to our tax advisor to fulfill our tax obligations. After canceling the shopping process, the data stored by us will be deleted. In the event of a contract being concluded, all data from the contractual relationship will be stored until the expiry of the tax retention period (7 years). The data name, address, purchased goods and date of purchase are also stored until the product liability expires (10 years). The data processing takes place on the basis of the legal provisions of § 96 Abs 3 TKG as well as Art 6 Abs 1 lit a (consent) and / or lit b (necessary to fulfill the contract) of the GDPR.
The storage of the IP address and the time of registration is necessary to ensure the security of our information technology systems. This is also our legitimate interest, which is why processing is permitted according to Art. 6 Paragraph 1 Letter f GDPR. A transfer to a third country or to an international organization is not intended. You are not obliged to provide this personal data, but you cannot place an order in our online shop without providing it. The personal data is deleted or protected by technical and organizational measures (e.g. pseudonymisation, encryption) as soon as the purpose of the processing no longer applies. This also takes place when a prescribed storage period expires, unless there is a need for further storage of the personal data for the conclusion or fulfillment of a contract. Unless we are legally obliged to store it for longer or to pass it on to third parties (in particular law enforcement authorities), the decision as to which personal data we collect, how long it is stored and to what extent you may have to disclose it depends on this which functions of the website you use in individual cases. The personal data you enter will be stored until your personal garden gnome account is terminated with us, but in any case for as long as necessary to fulfill the contract. The cookies lose their validity when you log out, otherwise after 30 days at the latest.
