7.4 Use of payment service providers

Apple Pay

If you choose the payment method “Apple Pay” from Apple Distribution International (Apple), Hollyhill Industrial Estate, Hollyhill, Cork, Ireland, payment is processed via the “Apple Pay” function on your device running iOS, watchOS or macOS by charging a payment card stored with Apple Pay. Apple Pay uses security features integrated into your device’s hardware and software to protect your transactions. To authorize a payment, you must therefore enter a code previously set by you and verify it using the “Face ID” or “Touch ID” function of your device.

For the purpose of payment processing, the information you provide during the ordering process, together with information about your order, is transmitted to Apple in encrypted form. Apple then re-encrypts this data with a developer-specific key before the data is transmitted to the payment service provider of the payment card stored in Apple Pay in order to process the payment. The encryption ensures that only the website through which the purchase was made can access the payment data. After the payment is made, Apple sends your device account number and a transaction-specific dynamic security code to the originating website to confirm payment success.

If personal data is processed in the described transfers, processing is carried out exclusively for the purpose of payment processing in accordance with Art. 6(1)(b) GDPR.

Apple retains anonymized transaction data, including the approximate purchase amount, the approximate date and time, and whether the transaction was successfully completed. Through anonymization, any personal reference is completely excluded. Apple uses anonymized data to improve Apple Pay and other Apple products and services.

If you use Apple Pay on your iPhone or Apple Watch to complete a purchase made via Safari on your Mac, the Mac and the authorization device communicate over an encrypted channel on Apple’s servers. Apple does not process or store any of this information in a format that can identify you personally. You can disable the ability to use Apple Pay on your Mac in your iPhone settings. Go to “Wallet & Apple Pay” and turn off “Allow Payments on Mac”.

Further information on data protection with Apple Pay can be found at:
https://support.apple.com/de-de/HT203027

bancontact

One or more online payment methods from the following provider are available on this website:
Bancontact Payconiq Company, Rue d'Arlon 82, 1040 Brussels, Belgium

If you select a payment method from the provider where you pay in advance (such as credit card payment), the payment data communicated by you during the ordering process (including name, address, bank and payment card information, currency and transaction number) as well as information about the content of your order will be passed on to the provider in accordance with Art. 6(1)(b) GDPR. In this case, your data is transferred exclusively for the purpose of payment processing with the provider and only to the extent necessary for this purpose.

Google Pay

If you choose the payment method “Google Pay” from Google Ireland Limited, Gordon House, 4 Barrow St, Dublin, D04 E5W5, Ireland (“Google”), payment is processed via the “Google Pay” application on your mobile device running at least Android 4.4 (“KitKat”) and equipped with an NFC function, by charging a payment card stored with Google Pay or a payment system verified there (e.g. PayPal). To authorize a payment via Google Pay in excess of EUR 25.00, your mobile device must first be unlocked using the verification measure set up by you (such as facial recognition, password, fingerprint or pattern).

For the purpose of payment processing, the information you provide during the ordering process together with information about your order is passed on to Google. Google then transmits your payment information stored with Google Pay in the form of a uniquely assigned transaction number to the originating website, by means of which a successful payment is verified. This transaction number does not contain any information about the actual payment data of your payment methods stored with Google Pay, but is created and transmitted as a uniquely valid numerical token. For all transactions via Google Pay, Google acts only as an intermediary for processing the payment procedure. The transaction is carried out exclusively in the relationship between the user and the originating website by charging the payment method stored with Google Pay.

If personal data is processed in the described transfers, processing is carried out exclusively for the purpose of payment processing in accordance with Art. 6(1)(b) GDPR.

Google reserves the right to collect, store and evaluate certain transaction-specific information for each transaction made via Google Pay. This includes the date, time and amount of the transaction, merchant location and description, a description of the purchased goods or services provided by the merchant, photos you attached to the transaction, the name and e-mail address of the seller and buyer or sender and recipient, the payment method used, your description of the reason for the transaction and, where applicable, the offer associated with the transaction.

According to Google, this processing is carried out exclusively in accordance with Art. 6(1)(f) GDPR on the basis of the legitimate interest in proper accounting, verification of transaction data and optimization and maintenance of the Google Pay service.

Google also reserves the right to combine the processed transaction data with further information collected and stored by Google when using other Google services.

In this case, your data is transferred exclusively for the purpose of payment processing with the provider and only to the extent necessary for this purpose.

If you choose a payment method in which the provider makes advance payment (such as purchase on account, installment purchase or direct debit), you will also be asked during the order process to provide certain personal data (first and last name, street, house number, postal code, city, date of birth, e-mail address, telephone number and, where applicable, data relating to an alternative payment method).

In order to safeguard our legitimate interest in determining the solvency of our customers, we transmit this data to the provider in accordance with Art. 6(1)(f) GDPR for the purpose of a credit check. On the basis of the personal data provided by you and other data (such as shopping cart, invoice amount, order history and payment experience), the provider checks whether the payment option selected by you can be granted with regard to payment and/or default risks.

In addition to provider-internal criteria in accordance with Art. 6(1)(f) GDPR, identity and creditworthiness information from the following credit agencies may also be included in the decision within the framework of the application review:

The credit report may contain probability values (so-called score values). If score values are included in the result of the credit report, they are based on a scientifically recognized mathematical-statistical procedure. Address data is included in the calculation of the score values, among other things, but not exclusively.

You may object to this processing of your data at any time by sending us a message or by contacting the provider. However, the provider may still be entitled to process your personal data if this is necessary for contractual payment processing.

8) Retargeting / remarketing and conversion tracking

8.1 AdRoll

This website uses retargeting technology from the following provider:
Nextroll Ltd, 5th Floor, Beaux Lane House, Mercer Street Lower, Dublin 2, Dublin, Ireland

This makes it possible to target visitors to our website with personalized, interest-based advertising who have already shown an interest in our shop and our products. The advertising materials are displayed on the basis of a cookie-based analysis of previous and current usage behavior.

In cases of retargeting technology, a cookie is stored on your computer or mobile device in order to collect pseudonymized data about your interests and thus individually adapt the advertising to the stored information. These cookies are small text files that are stored on your computer or mobile device. This way, you are shown advertising that is highly likely to match your product and information interests.

All processing described above, in particular the setting of cookies for reading information on the device used, only takes place if you have given us your express consent in accordance with Art. 6(1)(a) GDPR. Without such consent, retargeting technology will not be used during your visit to the website.

You may revoke your consent at any time with effect for the future. To exercise your revocation, please deactivate this service in the “cookie consent tool” provided on the website.

8.2 Google Ads conversion tracking

This website uses the online advertising program “Google Ads” and, within the framework of Google Ads, conversion tracking by Google Ireland Limited, Gordon House, 4 Barrow St, Dublin, D04 E5W5, Ireland (“Google”).

We use Google Ads in order to draw attention to our attractive offers on external websites by means of advertising material (so-called Google AdWords). In relation to the data from the advertising campaigns, we can determine how successful the individual advertising measures are. In doing so, we pursue the interest of showing you advertising that is of interest to you, making our website more interesting for you and achieving a fair calculation of the advertising costs incurred.

The cookie for conversion tracking is set when a user clicks on an ad placed by Google Ads. Cookies are small text files that are stored on your device. These cookies generally lose their validity after 30 days and are not used for personal identification. If the user visits certain pages of this website and the cookie has not yet expired, Google and we can recognize that the user clicked on the ad and was redirected to that page. Each Google Ads customer receives a different cookie. Cookies therefore cannot be tracked via the websites of Google Ads customers. The information obtained with the help of the conversion cookie is used to create conversion statistics for Google Ads customers who have opted for conversion tracking. Customers learn the total number of users who clicked on their ad and were redirected to a page tagged with a conversion tracking tag. However, they do not receive information with which users can be personally identified.

When using Google Ads, personal data may also be transmitted to the servers of Google LLC in the USA.

Details on the processing triggered by Google Ads conversion tracking and on Google's handling of data from websites can be found here:
https://policies.google.com/technologies/partner-sites

All processing described above, in particular the setting of cookies for reading information on the device used, only takes place if you have given us your express consent in accordance with Art. 6(1)(a) GDPR. You may revoke your consent at any time with effect for the future by deactivating this service in the “cookie consent tool” provided on the website.

You can also permanently object to the setting of cookies by Google Ads conversion tracking by downloading and installing the Google browser plug-in available at the following link:
https://support.google.com/My-Ad-Center-Help/answer/12155656?hl=de

In order to address users whose data we have received in the context of business or business-like relationships even more specifically with interest-based advertising, we use a customer matching function within Google Ads. For this purpose, we transmit one or more files with aggregated customer data (in particular e-mail addresses and telephone numbers) electronically to Google. Google does not gain access to the raw data, but automatically encrypts the information in the customer files during the transmission process by means of a special algorithm. Google can then only use the encrypted information to assign it to existing Google accounts that the data subjects have set up. This enables personalized advertising to be displayed across all Google services linked to the respective Google account.

Customer data is only transmitted to Google if you have given us your express consent in accordance with Art. 6(1)(a) GDPR. You may revoke this consent at any time with effect for the future. Further information on Google’s data protection measures in relation to the customer matching function can be found here:
https://support.google.com/google-ads/answer/6334160?hl=de&ref_topic=10550182

10) Tools and miscellaneous

Cookie consent tool

This website uses a so-called “cookie consent tool” to obtain effective user consent for cookies and cookie-based applications that require consent. The “cookie consent tool” is displayed to users when they access the page in the form of an interactive user interface on which consent for certain cookies and/or cookie-based applications can be given by ticking boxes. By using the tool, all cookies/services that require consent are only loaded if the respective user gives their consent by ticking the box. This ensures that such cookies are only set on the user’s respective device if consent has been given.

The tool sets technically necessary cookies in order to store your cookie preferences. Personal user data is generally not processed in this context.

If, in individual cases, personal data (such as the IP address) is nevertheless processed for the purpose of storing, assigning or logging cookie settings, this is done in accordance with Art. 6(1)(f) GDPR on the basis of our legitimate interest in legally compliant, user-specific and user-friendly consent management for cookies and thus in a legally compliant design of our website.
