Imprint/ Privacy

We appreciate your interest in our website. Protecting your privacy is very important to us. Below, we inform you in detail about how we handle your data.

1. Access data and hosting

You can visit our websites without providing any information about yourself. Each time a web page is accessed, the web server merely automatically stores a so-called server log file, which contains, for example, the name of the requested file, your IP address, the date and time of access, the amount of data transferred and the requesting provider (access data), and which documents the access.

This access data is evaluated exclusively for the purpose of ensuring the trouble-free operation of the site and improving our offering. In accordance with Art. 6(1) sentence 1 lit. f GDPR, this serves to protect our legitimate interests, which prevail in the balancing of interests, in a correct presentation of our offering. All access data is deleted no later than seven days after the end of your visit to the site.

2. Data collection and use for contract processing and when opening a customer account

We collect personal data when you voluntarily provide it to us in the course of your order, when contacting us (e.g., via the contact form or email) or when opening a customer account. Mandatory fields are marked as such, because in these cases we necessarily require the data to process the contract, or to process your contact request or open the customer account, and without providing it you cannot complete the order and/ or open the account, or cannot send your contact request. Which data is collected can be seen from the respective input forms. We use the data you provide in accordance with Art. 6(1) sentence 1 lit. b GDPR to process the contract and handle your inquiries. After the contract has been fully processed or your customer account has been deleted, your data will be restricted from further processing and deleted after the retention periods under tax and commercial law have expired, unless you have expressly consented to further use of your data or we reserve the right to use your data beyond this in a manner permitted by law, about which we inform you in this statement. You can delete your customer account at any time, either by sending a message to the contact option described below or by using a function provided for this purpose in the customer account.

3. Disclosure of data

To perform the contract in accordance with Art. 6(1) sentence 1 lit. b GDPR, we pass your data on to the shipping company commissioned with the delivery, insofar as this is necessary to deliver the goods ordered. Depending on which payment service provider you select in the ordering process, we pass on the payment data collected for this purpose to the credit institution commissioned with the payment and, where applicable, to payment service providers commissioned by us, or to the selected payment service, in order to process payments. In some cases, the selected payment service providers also collect this data themselves if you create an account with them. In this case, you must sign in to the payment service provider with your login details during the ordering process. In this respect, the privacy policy of the respective payment service provider applies.

We use a shipping service provider based in a country within the European Union. Personal data is transferred to this company only to the extent necessary to perform the contract.

Disclosure of data to shipping service providers
If you have given us your express consent to this during or after your order, we pass on your email address and telephone number to the selected shipping service provider on the basis of this consent in accordance with Art. 6(1) sentence 1 lit. a GDPR, so that the provider can contact you before delivery for the purpose of announcing or arranging the delivery.

Your consent can be withdrawn at any time by sending a message to the contact option described below. After withdrawal, we delete the data you provided for this purpose, unless you have expressly consented to further use of your data or we reserve the right to use your data beyond this in a manner permitted by law, about which we inform you in this statement.

4. Email newsletter and postal advertising

Email advertising with newsletter subscription
If you subscribe to our newsletter, we use the data required for this purpose or data you provide separately in order to send you our email newsletter regularly on the basis of your consent in accordance with Art. 6(1) sentence 1 lit. a GDPR.

You can unsubscribe from the newsletter at any time, either by sending a message to the contact option described below or via a link provided for this purpose in the newsletter. After you unsubscribe, we delete your email address, unless you have expressly consented to further use of your data or we reserve the right to use your data beyond this in a manner permitted by law, about which we inform you in this statement.

The newsletter is sent by a service provider as part of processing on our behalf; we pass on your email address to this service provider for this purpose.

This service provider is located in a country of the European Union or the European Economic Area.

Postal advertising and your right to object
In addition, we reserve the right to use your first and last name and your postal address for our own advertising purposes, e.g., to send you interesting offers and information about our products by postal mail. This serves to protect our legitimate interests, which prevail in the balancing of interests, in addressing our customers with advertising in accordance with Art. 6(1) sentence 1 lit. f GDPR.

5. Use of data for payment processing

Identity and credit check when selecting Klarna payment services
If you choose Klarna’s payment services, we ask for your consent in accordance with Art. 6(1) sentence 1 lit. a GDPR to transmit to Klarna the data necessary for processing the payment and for an identity and credit check. In Germany, the credit agencies named in Klarna’s privacy policy may be used for the identity and credit check.

Klarna uses the information received about the statistical probability of a payment default to make a balanced decision about the establishment, performance or termination of the contractual relationship.

You can withdraw your consent at any time by sending a message to the contact details below. As a result, we may no longer be able to offer you certain payment options. You can also withdraw your consent to this use of personal data at any time vis-à-vis Klarna.

6. Cookies and web analytics

Updated September 15, 2026. The necessary sx_mkt_consent cookie stores your optional-service choices for 180 days. Neither Google Analytics nor the Meta Pixel loads without your consent. You can change your choices and withdraw consent for the future at any time through “Cookie settings” in the footer.

With your consent to “Analytics”, we use Google Analytics 4 provided by Google Ireland Limited, Gordon House, Barrow Street, Dublin 4, Ireland, to measure page views, course-detail views, course-link clicks and contact requests successfully accepted by the email service (without form contents). Data includes visited pages, referrals, campaign information, browser and device information and pseudonymous cookie identifiers. Google uses _ga cookies to recognize visitors. Processing is based on your consent under Article 6(1)(a) GDPR. This integration does not grant Google advertising storage or personalized Google advertising.

Provider information: Google Privacy Policy and Google Analytics privacy controls.

7. Meta Pixel

With your separate consent to “Marketing”, we use the Meta Pixel provided by Meta Platforms Ireland Limited, Merrion Road, Dublin 4, Ireland. We send page views, course-detail views, course-link clicks and successful acceptance of contact requests by the email service (without form contents) to measure reach and advertising performance. Visited URLs, referrals, browser and device information, IP addresses and cookie identifiers such as _fbp may be processed and linked to your Meta account. Meta may also use this information to personalize its services and advertising. Processing is based on your consent under Article 6(1)(a) GDPR. Our own tracking events on this marketing website do not send purchase confirmations or form entries.

Both providers may process data outside the EEA, particularly in the United States. Their privacy notices describe processing, retention, international transfers and further controls. For Meta: Privacy Policy, Business Tools Terms and Controller Addendum. Withdrawing consent here stops future activation on this website; it does not retroactively delete data already processed by providers.

8. Social media plug-ins

Use of social plug-ins from Facebook, Instagram using the Shariff solution.

Social buttons from social networks are used on our website.

This serves to protect our legitimate interests, which prevail in the balancing of interests, in the optimal marketing of our offering in accordance with Art. 6(1) sentence 1 lit. f GDPR. To increase the protection of your data when you visit our website, these buttons are not integrated into the page as unrestricted plug-ins, but only by means of an HTML link. This integration ensures that no connection is yet established with the servers of the provider of the respective social network when a page of our website containing such buttons is accessed.

If you click on one of the buttons, a new window of your browser opens and calls up the page of the respective service provider, where you can (if necessary after entering your login details) press the Like or Share button, for example.

For the purpose and scope of the data collection and the further processing and use of the data by the providers on their sites, as well as a contact option and your related rights and setting options for protecting your privacy, please refer to the privacy notices of the providers.
