Article 6(1)(d) GDPR serves as a legal basis in cases where vital interests of the data subject or of another natural person require the processing of personal data.
If the processing is necessary in order to safeguard a legitimate interest of KARL MAYER or a third party and if the interests, fundamental rights and freedoms of the data subject do not outweigh the former interest, Article 6(1)(f) GDPR serves as the legal basis for the processing.

By using this service we can distinguish whether the corresponding input is of human origin or whether it is misused by automated machine processing. The legal basis for this data processing is article 6 (1)(f) GDPR.
To our knowledge, the referrer URL, the IP address, the behaviour of the website visitors, information about the operating system, browser and duration of stay, cookies, display instructions and scripts, the input behaviour of the user as well as mouse movements in the "reCAPTCHA" checkbox area are transmitted to "Google". Google uses the information obtained in this way to digitise books and other printed matter and to optimise services such as Google Street View and Google Maps (e.g. house number and street name recognition).

No data transfer takes place when you call up our websites. As soon as you have called up the page of the third party provider, you are in the area of responsibility of the respective third party provider, so that their data protection declaration or their declarations on the use of data also apply. We have no influence on this, but to avoid unnecessary data transfer, we recommend that you log out from the respective third-party provider before using a link, so that the use of the link does not lead to the creation of user profiles by the third-party provider.

3.8.1 Data processing when using the webshop / conclusion of contract / customer account
If you register with our web shop, use the web shop or conclude a contract with us, we process the data required for the preparation, conclusion, implementation or termination of a contract with you. This includes:
If you use the Web Shop but do not make a purchase, we will transmit the data of your Web Shop session by push message to our local sales partner responsible for you so that he can consult with you for the purpose of coordination, consultation and clarification of your individual needs.
The legal basis for this is Article 6 (1)(b) GDPR, i.e. you provide us with the data on the basis of the respective contractual relationship (e.g. maintenance of your customer account, preparation or processing of a sales contract) between you and us. For the processing of your e-mail address in the case of a purchase via our web shop, we are also obliged to send an electronic order confirmation due to legal requirements in the German Civil Code (BGB). In this respect, the legal basis also results from article 6 (1)(c) GDPR.
As far as we do not use your data for advertising purposes, we store the data collected for the contract processing until the expiry of the legal or possible contractual warranty and guarantee rights. After the expiry of this period, we will retain the information required under commercial and tax law for the contractual relationship for the legally specified periods. For this period, the data will be processed again solely in the event of a review by the tax authorities.
To provide you with the greatest possible convenience, we offer you the permanent storage of your personal data in a password-protected customer account.
Only if you want to place orders via our webshop, the opening of a customer account is necessary for the processing of the contract. After opening a customer account no new data entry is necessary. In addition, you can view and change the data stored about you in your customer account at any time.
In addition to the data requested when placing an order, you must enter a password of your own choice in order to set up a customer account. This password, together with your e-mail address, is used to access your customer account. Please treat your personal access data confidentially and do not make them available to unauthorised third parties. Please note that even after leaving our website you will remain logged in automatically unless you actively log out. You have the possibility to delete your customer account at any time. Please note, however, that this does not mean that the data visible in the customer account will be deleted once you have placed an order with us.
For the processing of a sales contract via our web shop, the data processing according to the following section 3.8.2. is also required.
3.8.2 Data Processing Identity, Creditworthiness, Payment Processing, Fraud Prevention, Transport, Collection, Counter Terrorism
3.8.2.1. Identity verification
If necessary, we will verify your identity by using information from service providers. The legal basis for this is Article 6 (1)(b) and (f) GDPR. The justification for this is based on the protection of your identity and the avoidance of attempts at fraud at our expense. The circumstance and the result of our inquiry will be added to your customer account for the duration of the contractual relationship.
3.8.2.2. Credit assessments
If you have given us your consent to do so, we are entitled to use information received in connection with the order to calculate a probability of default (internal scoring). The calculation of the probability of default by means of internal scoring is based on a recognised mathematical and statistical method. The data used in the internal scoring process results in particular from a combination of the following data categories: Address data, age, desired payment conditions, order path and assortment groups. Within the scope of internal scoring, only such data is used as the customer has provided to us.
If you have given us your consent to do so, we are also entitled to obtain credit information about you from an external credit agency. We cooperate with the following external credit agencies:
For the purpose of calling up creditworthiness information, the following data is transmitted to the aforementioned external credit agency: First name, surname, postal address, date of birth. Furthermore, these data may also be transmitted to the aforementioned external credit agency for the purpose of personal and address validation.
Within the framework of credit assessment, we can decide on the establishment, execution or termination of the contractual relationship by means of an automated process. For example, if a negative credit report is submitted by a credit agency or if an insufficient score is calculated within the framework of internal scoring, the desired payment method can be rejected automatically. You can assert the right towards us according to section 4.4.
The processing of your data within the framework of the credit assessment is based on Article 6 (1)(b) GDPR and Article 6 (1)(a) GDPR. The circumstance and the result of our inquiry will be added to your customer account for the duration of the contractual relationship.
3.8.2.3. Payment processing
Your credit card data will only be passed on to our payment service provider Ingenico Payment Services GmbH (Am Gierath 20, 40885 Ratingen, Germany ("Ingenico/Ogone")), which will collect, process and store it in encrypted form. The legal basis for this data processing is Art. 6 (1)(a), Art. 6 (1)(b), GDPR and Art. 6 (1)(f) GDPR.
In our online shop Java-Script code from Ingenico/Ogone is loaded. If you have activated Java-Script in your browser and have not installed a Java-Script blocker, your browser may transmit personal data to Ingenico/Ogone. We do not know which data Ingenico/Ogone links to the data received and for what purposes Ingenico/Ogone uses these data.
For further information please refer to the privacy policy of Ingenico/Ogone: http://payment-services.ingenico.com/de/de. To prevent the execution of Java-Script code of Ingenico / Ogone altogether, you can install a Java-Script blocker (e.g. www.noscript.net or www.ghostery.com) but then payment in our online shop with credit card is no longer possible.
The data will be stored and automatically deleted once the aforementioned purposes have been achieved.
3.8.2.4. Fraud prevention
The data you provide when placing an order can be used to check whether an atypical ordering process exists (e.g. simultaneous ordering of a large number of goods to the same address using different customer accounts). We have a legitimate interest in carrying out such a check.
The legal basis for the processing is Article 6(1)(f) of the GDPR. The data will be stored and automatically deleted once the above-mentioned purposes have been achieved.
3.8.2.5. Transport service providers
For the purpose of delivering ordered goods we work together with logistics service providers/transport companies and/or shipping partners.
In order to ensure that the goods are delivered according to your wishes, we will transmit your e-mail address, first name, surname, address and, if necessary, telephone number to the logistics company and/or shipping partner commissioned by us, who will take over the delivery. If necessary, they will contact you in advance of the delivery in order to coordinate the details of the delivery with you.
The legal basis of the processing is Article 6(1)(b) of the GDPR. The data will be stored and automatically deleted once the above-mentioned purposes have been achieved.
3.8.2.6 Defence against terrorism
For the purpose of ensuring compliance with the legal provisions of the Foreign Trade Act and the European Anti-Terrorism Ordinance, we are obliged, in particular, to comply with the prohibition on making customer data available for booking-relevant activities by comparing it with the annexes to the Anti-Terrorism Ordinance.
The legal basis of the processing is Article 6(1)(c) and (f) of the GDPR. The data will be stored and automatically deleted once the above-mentioned purposes have been achieved.

3.2. Legal basis for the processing of personal data
Where we obtain the consent of the data subject for processing operations involving personal data, Article 6 (1) (a) GDPR serves as the legal basis.
Article 6(1)(b) GDPR serves as the legal basis for the processing of personal data necessary for the performance of a contract to which the data subject is a party. This also applies to processing operations necessary for the performance of precontractual measures.
Insofar as the processing of personal data is necessary to fulfil a legal obligation to which KARL MAYER is subject, Article 6 (1)(c) GDPR serves as the legal basis.
Article 6(1)(d) GDPR serves as a legal basis in cases where vital interests of the data subject or of another natural person require the processing of personal data.
If the processing is necessary in order to safeguard a legitimate interest of KARL MAYER or a third party and if the interests, fundamental rights and freedoms of the data subject do not outweigh the former interest, Article 6(1)(f) GDPR serves as the legal basis for the processing.
The concretely applicable legal basis for the processing of personal data is always mentioned in this data protection declaration with the respective concrete data processing.
3.3. Data deletion and storage duration

Furthermore, these data may also be transmitted to the aforementioned external credit agency for the purpose of personal and address validation.
Within the framework of credit assessment, we can decide on the establishment, execution or termination of the contractual relationship by means of an automated process. For example, if a negative credit report is submitted by a credit agency or if an insufficient score is calculated within the framework of internal scoring, the desired payment method can be rejected automatically. You can assert the right towards us according to section 4.4.
The processing of your data within the framework of the credit assessment is based on Article 6 (1)(b) GDPR and Article 6 (1)(a) GDPR. The circumstance and the result of our inquiry will be added to your customer account for the duration of the contractual relationship.
