B.    Data Collected Automatically.

We and our Service Providers may automatically collect certain data about you when you access or use the website (“usage data”). Usage data may include IP address, device identifier, browser type, operating system, data regarding network connected hardware, and data about your use of the website. To the extent that we combine usage data with your personal data, we will treat the combined information as personal data under this Privacy Statement.

The methods that may be used on the website to collect usage data include:

  • Log Data: Log data is data about your use of the website, such as IP address, browser type, internet service provider, referring/exit pages, operating system, date/time stamps, and related data, which is stored in log files.

    • Cookies

 A cookie is a small text file that is stored on a user’s device and allows us to understand information about our visitors. For more information on cookies, see the section entitled “Do we Use Cookies?" below.

    •  Web Beacons (“Tracking Pixels”)

Web beacons are small graphic images, also known as "internet tags" or "clear gifs," embedded in web pages and e-mail messages. Web beacons may be used to count the number of visitors to the website, to monitor how users navigate the website, and to count content views.

    •  Embedded Scripts

An embedded script is programming code designed to collect information about your interactions with the website. It is temporarily downloaded onto your device from our web server or a third party with whom we work, is active only while you are connected to the website, and deleted or deactivated thereafter.

    • Location-identifying Technologies

Location-aware technologies locate (sometimes precisely) you for purposes such as verifying your location and delivering or restricting relevant content based on your location.

Certain data about your use of the website and certain Third Party Services (defined below) may be collected using Tracking Technologies across time and services and used by us and third parties for purposes such as to associate different devices you use, and deliver relevant ads and/or other content to you on the website and certain Third Party Services.

C.    Data From Other Sources.

We may obtain data about you from other sources, including Service Providers and Third Party Services, and combine such information with information we have collected about you. For example, we may receive information from PayPal regarding your purchases.  PayPal’s practices are governed by its own privacy policy available at https://www.paypal.com/webapps/mpp/ua/privacy-full. To the extent we combine such third party sourced information with personal data we have collected about you on the website, we will treat the combined data as personal data under this Privacy Statement. We are not responsible for the accuracy of any information provided by third parties or third party policies or practices.

3.    HOW DO WE USE AND SHARE YOUR DATA?

Our agents, vendors, consultants, and other service providers (collectively “Service Providers”) may receive, or be given access to your data, including personal data and usage data, in connection with their work on our behalf. These Service Providers are prohibited from using your personal data for any purpose other than to provide this assistance, although we may permit them to use aggregate information which does not identify you or de-identified data for other purposes. 

We may use and share data about you, including personal data, for any purposes consistent with our statements under this Privacy Statement or as permitted by applicable law or with your consent, including for the following purposes:

 4. DO WE USE COOKIES?

We use cookies, which enable us to make your shopping as pleasant as possible. We also use cookies for recording your usage behaviour on our website in order to recognise your browser again. This way we can understand your movements on our website and record and measure the success of certain marketing measures.

 Cookies are text files, which are stored on the user’s device during a visit to our website. Cookies may be in the form of a session ID cookie or tracking cookie. Session cookies make it easier for you to navigate the website and expire when you close your browser. Tracking cookies help in understanding how you use the website, and remain longer. The website may associate some or all of these types of cookies with your devices. Cookies may remain on your device for extended periods of time.

In order to be able to use all functions in on our website, you must allow tracking cookies in your browser. You will find further information in this respect under "FAQ/Technical problems/activate cookies". Regular cookies may generally be disabled or removed by tools available as part of most commercial browsers, and in some instances blocked in the future by selecting certain settings.  Browsers offer different functionalities and options so you may need to set them separately. If you disable or block cookies you can still visit our website, however, some parts of the website may not work, such as displaying the contents of your shopping basket.

 Your browser settings may allow you to automatically transmit a “Do Not Track” signal to online services you visit.  Note, however, there is no industry consensus as to what site and app operators should do with regard to these signals. Accordingly, we do not monitor or take action with respect to “Do Not Track” signals or other mechanisms.  For more information on “Do Not Track,” visit http://www.allaboutdnt.com.

5. THIRD PARTY SERVICES, FEATURES, AND DEVICES

Our website contains content from and hyperlinks to websites, locations, platforms, and services operated and owned by third parties (“Third Party Services”). In addition, our website contains features that allow you to interact with, connect to, or access our website through certain Third Party Services and third party devices (“Third Party Features”). For example, you use a Third Party Feature when you log-in to our website through Facebook, Google, Instagram, or Twitter, or “like” or “share” content over social media through our website. Remember that third parties may use Tracking Technologies to independently collect data about you and may solicit personal data from you. Also, if you use a Third Party Feature, both we and the applicable third party may have access to and use data associated with your use of the Third Party Feature. If you publicly reference our website on a Third Party Service (e.g., by using a hashtag associated with us in a tweet or post), we may use your reference on or in connection with our website.

Our website also contains Tracking Technologies operated by third parties. For example, analytics services, such as Google Analytics, may use Tracking Technologies on our website to help us analyze your use of the website, compile statistic reports on the website’s activity, and provide other services relating to website activity and internet usage. Similarly, ad serving services, advertisers, and other third parties may use Tracking Technologies on our website and Third Party Services to track your activities across time and services, and tailor ads to you based on your activities, which may include sending you an ad on a Third Party Service or third party device after you have left the website (“Interest-based Advertising”).

 The information collected and stored by third parties, whether through our website, a Third Party Service, a Third Party Feature, or a third party device, remains subject to their own policies and practices, including what information they share with us, your choices on their services and devices, and whether they store information in the U.S. or elsewhere. We are not responsible for and make no representations regarding third party policies and practices, and encourage you to familiarize yourself with and consult their privacy policies and terms of use. To the extent we combine information we receive from third parties with personal data we collect directly from you on the website, we will treat the combined information as personal data under this Privacy Statement.

For further information on Tracking Technologies and your choices regarding them, please see the sections entitled “Data Collected Automatically” and “Do We Use Cookies?” above and “Analytics and Advertising Opt-Outs” below.

6. ANALYTICS AND ADVERTISING OPT-OUTS

You may exercise choices regarding the use of cookies from Google Analytics by going to https://tools.google.com/dlpage/gaoptoutor downloading the Google Analytics Opt-out Browser Add-on.

You may exercise choices regarding receipt of Interest-based Advertising by submitting opt outs.  Some of the advertisers and Service Providers that perform advertising-related services for us and our partners may participate in the Digital Advertising Alliance ("DAA") Self-Regulatory Program for Online Behavioral Advertising. To learn more about how you can exercise certain choices regarding Interest-based Advertising, visit http://www.aboutads.info/choices.  Some of these companies may also be members of the Network Advertising Initiative (“NAI”). To learn more about the NAI and your opt out options for their members, see http://www.networkadvertising.org/choices/. Please be aware that, even if you are able to opt out of certain kinds of Interest-based Advertising, you may continue to receive other types of ads.  Opting out only means that those selected members should no longer deliver certain Interest-based Advertising to you, but does not mean you will no longer receive any targeted content and/or ads (e.g., from other ad networks). We are not responsible for effectiveness of, or compliance with, any third-parties’ opt out options or programs or the accuracy of their statements regarding their programs.

 

7. DO WE USE WEB ANALYSIS TOOLS?

Yes. We do this the same as the majority of Internet companies. We will inform you about the used service in detail below.

Use of Google Analytics

We use the web analysis tool Google Analytics for evaluating the visitor numbers to our online shop and the collection of thus resulting statistics.

The following information is provided in this respect:
This website uses Google Analytics, a web analysis service of Google Inc. ("Google"). Google Analytics uses so-called "cookies", text files, which are stored on your computer and which enable an analysis of the use of the website by you. The information generated by the cookie concerning your use of this website is, as a rule, transmitted to a server of Google in the USA and stored there. In the event of the activation of the IP anonymization on this website your IP address will be previously abbreviated by Google, however, within member states of the European Union or in other contracting states of the Treaty on the European Economic Area. Only in exceptional cases will the full IP address be transmitted to a server of Google in the USA and abbreviated there. By order of the operator of this website Google will use this information in order to evaluate your use of the website in order to compile reports about the website activities and in order to provide further services associated with the use of the website and the Internet towards the website operator. The IP address transmitted by your browser within the scope of Google Analytics will not be aggregated with other data of Google. You can prevent the storage of the cookies by a corresponding setting of your browser software. However, we would like to point out to you that in this case you will, if applicable, not be able to use all functions of this website in full. You can in addition prevent the entry of the data generated by the cookie and which refers to your use of the website (incl. your IP address) to Google as well as the processing of these data by Google by downloading and installing the browser plug-in that is available under the following link. In connection with the problem of the use of analysis tools, the collection of the full IP addresses and making these available to the user, we would like to point out that this website uses the analysis tool Google Analytics by using the extension made available by Google "_anonymizeIp()". For this reason the determined IP addresses will only be further processed in an abbreviated form in order to exclude a direct reference to the individual Internet user here.

Extended Google Analytics functions

All remarketing target groups created in Google Analytics are extended so that you will profit from the new cross-device functions available in AdWords and DoubleClick. This way we can reach users irrespective of the device when using Google Analytics Audiences.

Insofar as users have agreed that their web and app browser progress is linked with their Google account by Google and information from their Google account is used to personalise advertisements, which they see in the web, Google uses data of these registered users together with Google Analytics data in order to create and define target group lists for cross-device remarketing. Google-authenticated IDs of these users are recorded by Google Analytics in order to support this function. These personal data of Google are temporarily linked with our Google Analytics data in order to form target groups.

8. PUBLIC PROCEDURE INDEX

The BDSG stipulates in Section 4g that the office for data protection has to make the following details available to everyone in a suitable manner in line with Section 4e. Therefore, you can contact our data protection officer by e-mail at privacymanager@satisfyer.com in this respect and request our procedure index.

For this purpose, please contact us at the addresses set forth in Section 16 below.

11. YOUR CALIFORNIA PRIVACY RIGHTS

California’s “Shine the Light” law permits customers in California to request certain details about how certain types of their data are shared with third parties and, in some cases, affiliates, for those third parties’ and affiliates’ own direct marketing purposes. Under the law, a business should either provide California customers certain information upon request or permit California customers to opt in to, or opt out of, this type of sharing.

Company may share personal information as defined by California’s “Shine the Light” law with third parties and/or affiliates for such third parties’ and affiliates’ own direct marketing purposes. If you are a California resident and wish to obtain information about our compliance with this law, please contact us at the addresses set forth in Section 16 below. Requests must include “California Privacy Rights Request” in the first line of the description and include your name, street address, city, state, and ZIP code. Please note that we are not required to respond to requests made by means other than through the provided e-mail address or mail address.

12. Your European Privacy Rights

If you are an EU data subject, you can tell us not to contact you with information regarding our products and services or those of third parties or to share your details with third parties so that they can send you information regarding their products and services, either at the point such information is collected on the Service (by checking or un-checking (as applicable) the relevant box) or, if you do not wish us to continue to use your information in this way, by following the unsubscribe instructions on any communications sent to you. You can also exercise the right at any time by contacting us using the contacting us details at the end of this privacy policy.

Please note that your opt-out is limited to the e-mail address used and will not affect subsequent subscriptions or non-promotional communications, such as those about your account, transactions, servicing, or our ongoing business relations. 

14. HOW DO WE PROTECT YOUR PERSONAL DATA?

We take reasonable measures to help protect data about you from loss, theft, misuse and unauthorized access, disclosure, alteration and destruction. Nevertheless, transmission via the internet is not completely secure and we cannot guarantee the security of your information collected through our website.

 

15. WHEN WILL YOUR DATA BE DELETED?

Our policy is to delete data when we have fulfilled the purpose for which it was originally collected or based on the consent you gave us. However, we will retain and use your data as necessary to comply with our legal obligations, resolve disputes, and enforce our agreements.

16. PROCESSING IN GERMANY; DATA TRANSFER; CHANGES TO THIS PRIVACY STATEMENT.

Our databases are located in Germany. This is necessary in order to process the information. If you access our Services from outside Germany, you consent to transfer, processing, and storage of that data in Germany. Information submitted by you may be transferred by us to third parties mentioned in the circumstances described above (see information sharing), which may be situated in the United States or elsewhere outside the EEA and may be processed outside the EEA. The countries concerned may not have similar data protection laws to the EEA. In particular, the law in the United States in respect of law enforcement authority access to data is significantly different from Europe. In these instances, where required by law, we will enter into appropriate Controller to Processor Standard Contractual Clauses for the transfer of personal data outside the EEA to third party processors.

We reserve the right to revise and reissue this Privacy Statement at any time. Any changes will be effective immediately upon posting of the revised Privacy Statement. Your continued use of our website indicates your consent to the Privacy Statement then posted. If the changes are material, we may provide you additional notice to your e-mail address. 

17. Children.

The website is intended for a general audience and not directed to children under thirteen (13) years of age. EIS does not knowingly collect personal information as defined by the U.S. Children’s Privacy Protection Act (“COPPA”) in a manner that is not permitted by COPPA. If you are a parent or guardian and believe EIS has collected such information in a manner not permitted by COPPA, please e-mail us at privacymanager@satisfyer.com or send us a letter to the address identified in Section 18 below, and we will remove such data to the extent required by COPPA.

 

18. DO YOU HAVE ANY FURTHER QUESTIONS?
