3) Cookies
In order to make visiting our website attractive and to enable the use of certain functions, we use so-called cookies on various pages. These are small text files that are stored on your device. Some of the cookies we use are deleted again after the end of the browser session, i.e. after you close your browser (so-called session cookies). Other cookies remain on your device and enable us or our partner companies to recognize your browser on your next visit (persistent cookies). You can set your browser so that you are informed about the setting of cookies and individually decide whether to accept them or to exclude the acceptance of cookies for certain cases or in general.

4) Use of social plugins
4.1 Our website uses so-called social plugins (“plugins”) from the social network Facebook, which is operated by Facebook Inc., 1601 S. California Ave, Palo Alto, CA 94304, USA (“Facebook”). You can find an overview of the Facebook plugins and their appearance here: https://developers.facebook.com/docs/plugins
In order to increase the protection of your data when you visit our website, the plugins are integrated into the page using a so-called “2-click” or “Shariff” solution. This integration ensures that when you visit a page on our website that contains such plugins, no connection to the Facebook servers is established. Your browser will only establish a direct connection to the Facebook servers when you activate the plugins and thereby give your consent to the data transmission. The content of the respective plugin is transmitted directly to your browser and integrated into the page. The plugin then transmits data (including your IP address) to Facebook. We have no influence on the amount of data that Facebook collects with the help of the plugins. To the best of our knowledge, Facebook receives information about which of our websites you have currently and previously accessed. By integrating the plugins, Facebook also receives the information that your browser has accessed the corresponding page of our website if you do not have a Facebook profile or are not currently logged in. This information (including your IP address) is sent directly from your browser to a Facebook server in the USA and stored there. If you interact with the plugins, for example press the “Like” button, the corresponding information is also transmitted directly to a Facebook server and stored there. The information is also published on Facebook and shown to your contacts there.
The purpose and scope of the data collection and the further processing and use of the data by Facebook as well as your related rights and setting options to protect your privacy can be found in Facebook’s data protection information at http://www.facebook.com/policy.php
If you are a member of the Facebook social network and would like to limit the collection of data via our website and the merging of your user data with the data stored about you on the Facebook social network, you should log out of Facebook before visiting our website. You can also completely prevent the Facebook plugins from loading in the future with add-ons for your browser, e.g. with the “Facebook Blocker”, available at http://webgraph.com/resources/facebookblocker/.
4.2 So-called social plugins (“plugins”) from the social network Pinterest, operated by Pinterest Inc., 635 High Street, Palo Alto, CA, 94301, USA (“Pinterest”), are used on the seller’s website.

The plug-in transmits so-called log data to the Pinterest server in the USA. This log data may contain the IP address, the address of the websites visited that have Pinterest functions, the type and settings of the browser, the date and time of the request, your use of Pinterest and cookies.

The plugins are marked with an Instagram logo, for example in the form of an “Instagram camera”. You can find an overview of the Instagram plugins and their appearance here: http://blog.instagram.com/post/36222022872/introducing-instagram-badges.
When you visit a page on our website that contains such a plugin, your browser establishes a direct connection to the Instagram servers. The content of the plugin is transmitted directly from Instagram to your browser and integrated into the page. Through this integration, Instagram receives the information that your browser has accessed the corresponding page of our website, even if you do not have an Instagram profile or are not currently logged into Instagram. This information (including your IP address) is sent directly from your browser to an Instagram server in the USA and stored there.
If you are logged in to Instagram, Instagram can immediately assign your visit to our website to your Instagram account. If you interact with the plugins, for example press the “Instagram camera” button, this information is also transmitted directly to an Instagram server and stored there. The information is also published on your Instagram account and shown to your contacts there.
The purpose and scope of the data collection and the further processing and use of the data by Instagram as well as your related rights and setting options to protect your privacy can be found in Instagram’s data protection information: https://help.instagram.com/155833707900388/.

5) Use of Youtube Videos
This website uses the YouTube embedding function to display and play back videos from the provider “YouTube”. The extended data protection mode is used here, which, according to the provider, does not start storing user information until the video (s) are played back. If the playback of embedded YouTube videos is started, the provider “YouTube” uses cookies to collect information about user behavior. According to information from “Youtube”, these are used, among other things, to record video statistics, improve user-friendliness and prevent abusive practices. Regardless of whether or not the embedded videos are played, a connection to the Google “DoubleClick” network is established each time this website is accessed, which can trigger further data processing operations beyond our control.
Further information on data protection at “YouTube” can be found in the provider’s data protection declaration at: https://www.google.de/intl/de/policies/privacy/
