  4. Collecting, Processing and Using Personal Data
  'Collecting' as defined in the Federal Data Protection Act is the acquiring of personal data. ‘Processing’ as defined in the Federal Data Protection Act is the storing, modifying, sending, blocking or deleting of personal data. ‘Using’ as defined in that legislation is any use of personal data insofar as it does not involve processing.

Personal data will only be forwarded if this is permitted by law or if we are obligated to do so pursuant to a court decision. Our employees and service providers who work for us are obligated to maintain confidentiality and comply with the Federal Data Protection Act.
  As a general rule, we only use the personal data transferred to us by you for the purpose of responding to your queries, handling and processing your orders and purchases, or for allowing you access to special information or offers. We collect, store and process your data to allow us to fully process your order/purchase, including any later guarantees, for services provided by us, and technical administration. We will delete your personal data insofar as statutory storage obligations do not prevent this and you have asserted a claim for the data to be deleted, if the data are no longer required to fulfil the purpose for which they were stored, or if storing the data is not permitted on other legal grounds.

We hereby disclaim liability for improperly used passwords, unless we were responsible for the misuse. The purpose of the ‘stay logged in’ function is to ensure your visit to our website is as convenient as possible. This function allows you to use our services without having to log in again each time.
