If we receive a message from you, the legal basis is Art. 6 para. 1 lit. a, Art. 6 para. 1 lit. b or Art. 6 para. 1 lit. f GDPR, depending on the content of the message.
The legal basis is your consent in accordance with Art. 6 para. 1 lit. a GDPR.
You have the right to withdraw your consent at any time.
See your rights above for more details.
The legal basis is our legitimate interest pursuant to Art. 6 para. 1 sentence 1 lit. f GDPR.
The legitimate interest is our interest in initiating business and intensifying the business relationship with existing and potential customers.
In general, we expressly request that you do not disclose any data to us that is likely to be of little or no relevance to the purpose for which you intend to use it; this applies in particular to special categories of personal (“sensitive”) data.
The provision of information by you is purely voluntary.
If you contact us simply to obtain information from us, we will process the data you provide.
We process the necessary mandatory information for the processing of contracts; further information is voluntary.
When we receive a message from you, our web host logs and stores the date/time of registration and the IP address from which the registration was received.
This is only for evidence purposes in the event that an e-mail address is used by an unauthorized person.
The required mandatory information is marked separately.
The provision of further information is voluntary.
Which personal data is transmitted to us when you order the newsletter can be seen from the input mask used for this purpose.
The only mandatory information for sending the newsletter is your e-mail address.
The provision of any additional, separately marked data is voluntary and will be used to address you personally.
When you register for the newsletter, we also store the IP address assigned by your internet service provider (ISP), the computer system you are using at the time of registration and the date and time of registration.
The collection of this data is necessary in order to be able to trace the (possible) misuse of your e-mail address at a later date and therefore serves as legal protection for us.
Depending on what you have voluntarily provided to us, your data processed by us may include the following:
Your data may be passed on in whole or in part, but only to the extent and to the extent necessary, to the following controllers:
In addition, your data may be passed on to the following recipients as (sub)processors; a (sub)processing agreement has been concluded with all of them and the appropriate technical and organizational measures (TOMs) have been verified:
Your data will be stored in a form that allows you to be identified only for as long as is necessary for the purpose for which it is processed.
By providing us with your data via the contact form or email, contacting us by telephone or in person, you expressly consent to your data, including the personal data provided by you and any unsolicited and voluntarily provided special categories of personal data, being processed by us and the above-mentioned recipients for the duration of the processing of the information in question.
If you contact us merely to obtain information from us, your data will therefore either be deleted immediately or deleted after a reasonable period of time corresponding to the content of the communication, depending on the content of the communication.
If you withdraw your declaration of consent, we will delete (or have deleted) all your data – including cumulative data – from all databases.
Due to company and tax law requirements, we are obliged to store your address, payment and order data for a period of 7 years.
If you contact us to conclude a contract, the data will be deleted at the end of the 7th year after the last receipt has been posted (§ 132 BAO).
If a contract is concluded, all data from the contractual relationship will therefore be stored until the end of this period.
However, we will restrict processing after 2 years, i.e. your data will only be used to comply with legal obligations.
Statutory/legal retention obligations or contractual obligations, e.g. towards customers from warranty or compensation or towards contractual partners, are a further basis for continuing to store your data.
(Art 6 para 1 lit c GDPR; Art 17 para 3 lit e GDPR).
The data categories name, address, purchased goods and date of purchase are also stored until the expiry of product liability (10 years).
The data you provide for the newsletter will only be stored by us for as long as you wish to receive the newsletter and beyond that only as long as we need data to enforce or defend against legal claims.
You can revoke your consent to the newsletter at any time with effect for the future by clicking on the link provided in every newsletter e-mail, in writing by e-mail or letter to our contact address.
The withdrawal of consent does not affect the lawfulness of the processing of your data based on your consent before its withdrawal.
Once consent has been withdrawn, the personal data of the subscriber that has been collected and stored will be deleted immediately.
Marketing data is stored for 3 years after the last contact.
You can read the articles in the blog, where we publish various articles on the subject of (shoe) fashion and lifestyle to complement our range.
