Apple Pay uses security functions integrated into the hardware and software of your device to protect your transactions. In order to release a payment, you must enter a code previously defined by you and verify it using the \"Face ID\" or \"Touch ID\" function of your end device.<\/p>\n\n<p>For the purpose of payment processing, the information you provide during the ordering process, together with information about your order, is passed on to Apple in encrypted form. Apple then encrypts this data again with a developer-specific key before the data is transmitted to the payment service provider of the payment card stored in Apple Pay to carry out 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 the success of the payment.<\/p>\n\n<p>Insofar as personal data is processed during the described transfers, the processing is carried out exclusively for the purpose of payment processing in accordance with Art. 6 (1) lit. b DSGVO.<\/p>\n\n<p>Apple retains anonymized transaction data, including the approximate amount of the purchase, the approximate date and time, and whether the transaction was completed successfully. The anonymization completely eliminates any reference to individuals. Apple uses the anonymized data to improve \"Apple Pay\" and other Apple products and services.<\/p>\n\n<p>When 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 via an encrypted channel on Apple's servers. Apple does not process or store any of this information in a format that can be used to identify you. You can disable the ability to use Apple Pay on your Mac in your iPhone settings.

Among other things, this makes it possible to evaluate movement patterns (so-called heat maps), which show the duration of page visits and interactions with page content (e.g. text input, scrolling, clicks and mouse-overs). Pseudonymization rules out the possibility of direct personal identification. Your personal data is not merged with clear data collected in any other way.<\/p>\n\n<p>All processing described above, in particular the reading or storage of information on the terminal device used, will only be carried out if you have given us your express consent to do so in accordance with Art. 6 para. 1 lit. a GDPR.

The \"cookie consent tool\" is displayed to users when they access the website in the form of an interactive user interface, on which consent for certain cookies and\/or cookie-based applications can be given by ticking a box. By using the tool, all cookies\/services requiring consent are only loaded if the respective user gives the corresponding consent by ticking the box. This ensures that such cookies are only set on the user's end device if consent has been granted.<\/p>\n\n<p>The tool sets technically necessary cookies to save your cookie preferences. Personal user data is not processed in this process.<\/p>\n\n<p>If, in individual cases, personal data (such as the IP address) is processed for the purpose of storing, assigning or logging cookie settings, this is done in accordance with Art. 6 para. 1 lit. 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.<\/p>\n\n<p>Another legal basis for the processing is Art. 6 para. 1 lit. c GDPR. As the controller, we are subject to the legal obligation to make the use of technically unnecessary cookies dependent on the respective user consent.<\/p>\n\n<p>Where necessary, we have concluded an order processing contract with the provider, which ensures the protection of the data of our website visitors and prohibits unauthorized disclosure to third parties.<\/p>\n\n<p>Further information about the operator and the setting options of the cookie consent tool can be found directly in the corresponding user interface on our website.<\/p>\n\n<h2>11) Rights of the data subject<\/h2>\n\n<p><b>11.1<\/b>&nbsp;The applicable data protection law grants you the following data subject rights (rights of information and intervention) vis-\u00e0-vis the controller with regard to the processing of your personal data, whereby reference is made to the stated legal basis for the respective exercise prerequisites:<\/p>\n\n<ul>\n<li>Right to information according to Art. 15 DSGVO;<\/li>\n<li>Right to rectification pursuant to Art. 16 DSGVO;<\/li>\n<li>Right to erasure pursuant to Art. 17 DSGVO;<\/li>\n<li>Right to restriction of processing pursuant to Art. 18 DSGVO;<\/li>\n<li>Right to information pursuant to Art. 19 DGSVO;<\/li>\n<li>Right to data portability according to Art. 20 DSGVO;<\/li>\n<li>Right to revoke consent given in accordance with Art. 7 (3) DSGVO;<\/li>\n<li>Right to lodge a complaint pursuant to Art. 77 DGSVO.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n<p><b>11.2<\/b>&nbsp;RIGHT OF OBJECTION<\/p>\n\n<p>IF WE PROCESS YOUR PERSONAL DATA IN THE CONTEXT OF A BALANCING OF INTERESTS ON THE BASIS OF OUR OVERRIDING LEGITIMATE INTEREST, YOU HAVE THE RIGHT TO OBJECT TO THIS PROCESSING WITH EFFECT FOR THE FUTURE AT ANY TIME ON GROUNDS ARISING FROM YOUR PARTICULAR SITUATION.<\/p>\n\n<p>IF YOU EXERCISE YOUR RIGHT TO OBJECT, WE WILL STOP PROCESSING THE DATA CONCERNED. HOWEVER, WE RESERVE THE RIGHT TO CONTINUE PROCESSING IF WE CAN DEMONSTRATE COMPELLING LEGITIMATE GROUNDS FOR PROCESSING THAT OVERRIDE YOUR INTERESTS, FUNDAMENTAL RIGHTS AND FREEDOMS, OR IF THE PROCESSING IS FOR THE PURPOSE OF ASSERTING, EXERCISING OR DEFENDING LEGAL CLAIMS.<\/p>\n\n<p>IF WE PROCESS YOUR PERSONAL DATA FOR THE PURPOSE OF DIRECT MARKETING, YOU HAVE THE RIGHT TO OBJECT AT ANY TIME TO THE PROCESSING OF YOUR PERSONAL DATA FOR THE PURPOSE OF SUCH MARKETING. YOU MAY EXERCISE THE OBJECTION AS DESCRIBED ABOVE.<\/p>\n\n<p>IF YOU EXERCISE YOUR RIGHT TO OBJECT, WE WILL STOP PROCESSING THE DATA CONCERNED FOR DIRECT MARKETING PURPOSES.<\/p>\n\n<h2>12) Duration of storage of personal data<\/h2>\n\n<p>The duration of the storage of personal data is determined on the basis of the respective legal basis, the purpose of processing and - if relevant - additionally on the basis of the respective statutory retention period (e.g. retention periods under commercial and tax law).<\/p>\n\n<p>When processing personal data on the basis of explicit consent pursuant to Art. 6 (1) a DSGVO, the data concerned will be stored until you revoke your consent.<\/p>\n\n<p>If there are legal retention periods for data that is processed within the scope of legal business or similar obligations on the basis of Art. 6 Para. 1 lit. b DSGVO, this data will be routinely deleted after the retention periods have expired, provided that it is no longer required for the fulfillment of the contract or the initiation of the contract and\/or there is no legitimate interest on our part to continue storing it.<\/p>\n\n<p>When processing personal data on the basis of Art. 6(1)(f) DSGVO, this data will be stored until you exercise your right to object pursuant to Art. 21(1) DSGVO, unless we can demonstrate compelling legitimate grounds for the processing which override your interests, rights and freedoms, or the processing serves to assert, exercise or defend legal claims.<\/p>\n\n<p>When processing personal data for the purpose of direct marketing based on Art. 6 (1) lit. f DSGVO, this data will be stored until you exercise your right to object according to Art. 21 (2) DSGVO.<\/p>\n\n<p>Unless otherwise stated in the other information in this statement about specific processing situations, stored personal data will otherwise be deleted when it is no longer necessary for the purposes for which it was collected or otherwise processed.<\/p><\/div><div
