8. integration of the Trusted Shops Trustbadge/other widgets

Trusted Shops widgets (e.g. Trusted Shops Trustbadge) are integrated on this website to display Trusted Shops services (e.g. seal of approval, collected reviews) and to offer Trusted Shops products to buyers after an order.

This serves to safeguard our legitimate interests, which predominate in the context of a balancing of interests, in optimal marketing by enabling secure shopping in accordance with Art. 6 para. 1 sentence 1 lit. f GDPR. The Trustbadge and the services advertised with it are an offer from Trusted Shops GmbH, Subbelrather Str. 15C, 50823 Cologne (Trusted Shops), with which we are jointly responsible under data protection law in accordance with Art. 26 GDPR. As part of this data protection notice, we inform you below about the essential contents of the contract in accordance with Art. 26 para. 2 GDPR.

The trust badge is provided by a US CDN provider (content delivery network) as part of a joint responsibility. An appropriate level of data protection is ensured by standard data protection clauses and other contractual measures. Further information on data protection at Trusted Shops GmbH can be found here.

When the Trustbadge is accessed, the web server automatically saves a so-called server log file, which also contains your IP address, the date and time of access, the amount of data transferred and the requesting provider (access data) and documents the access. The IP address is anonymized immediately after collection so that the stored data cannot be assigned to your person. The server log file is stored in a security database for the analysis of security anomalies and is automatically deleted or anonymized no later than 90 days after creation. In accordance with Art. 6 para. 1 sentence 1 lit. f GDPR, this serves the legitimate interest of us and Trusted Shops for the prevention of abuse and fraud, for offer and website optimization and to ensure trouble-free operation of the website or the Trustbadge or other Trusted Shops widgets.

Further personal data is transferred to Trusted Shops GmbH if you decide to use Trusted Shops products after completing an order or if you have already registered to use them. For this purpose, personal data is automatically collected from the order data. Whether you as a buyer are already registered for product use is automatically checked using a neutral parameter, the e-mail address hashed using a cryptological one-way function. The e-mail address is converted into this hash value, which cannot be decrypted by Trusted Shops, before transmission. After checking for a match, the parameter is automatically deleted.

This serves to check whether you are already registered for services with Trusted Shops GmbH and is therefore necessary for the fulfillment of our and Trusted Shops overriding legitimate interests in the provision of the buyer protection linked to the specific order and the transactional evaluation services in accordance with Art. 6 Para. 1 S. 1 lit. f GDPR. If this is the case, further processing will be carried out in accordance with the contractual agreement concluded between you and Trusted Shops. If you have not yet registered for the services, you will then be given the opportunity to do so for the first time. Further processing after registration is also based on the contractual agreement with Trusted Shops. If you do not register, all transmitted data will be automatically deleted by Trusted Shops and a personal reference is then no longer possible.

Within the scope of the joint responsibility existing between us and Trusted Shops GmbH, please contact Trusted Shops GmbH in case of data protection issues and to assert your rights. You can find their contact details here. Further information on data protection can be found in the following link here. Irrespective of this, you can also contact us at any time using the contact option described in this privacy policy. If necessary, your request will then be forwarded to the other responsible party for answering.
