4 Additional functions and offers from our website
(1) Our website is not only a source of information, but also offers various services that you may use if you like (such as the option to buy products from our online store or enter competitions). To do so, you generally need to provide additional personal data, which we use to perform the service in question and for which the previously mentioned data processing principles apply.(2) In some cases, we use external service providers to process your data. We have selected and contracted them carefully. They are bound to follow our instructions, and we review them on a regular basis.

The data will not be disclosed to third parties. The information gathered by the registration form is queried during the registration process, and we save it. The legal basis for the processing of these data is Art. 6 (1) lit. a EU GDPR if the user has granted consent. Wenn die Registrierung der Erfüllung eines Vertrages, dessen Vertragspartei die betroffene Person ist, oder der Durchführung vorvertraglicher Maßnahmen dient. If the purpose of the registration is to fulfil a contract whose contracting party is the user or to perform pre-contractual measures, the additional legal basis for processing the data is Art. 6 (1) lit. b EU GDPR.
Registration is not required to conclude a contract with the user. Registration of the user may, however, be necessary for certain functions with added-value character, such as providing an order history.
(6) To process customer enquiries, we use the Zendesk ticket system, a customer service platform from Zendesk Inc., 989 Market Street #300, San Francisco, CA 94102, USA. For this purpose, our website records the necessary data, such as your last name, first name, postal address, telephone number and e-mail address so we can provide you with the information you require. Zendesk is a certified participant in the “Privacy Shield Framework” and therefore meets the minimum requirements for contract data processing within the law.

Should you have questions, you can also contact the data protection officer directly: privacy@zendesk.com

The legal basis for processing with Zendesk is Art. 6 (1) s. 1 lit. a, provided you have granted your consent, and lit. b to in so far as the processing of your enquiry serves to prepare or execute a contractual relationship. Lit. f shall also apply if no contractual relationship exists, whereby our legitimate interest in this case consists in replying to your request.

These services are used to generate statistical evaluations of the performance, sales and customer structure of our shop and services. Personal data, for example interactions with our customer service, can be processed in the course of this evaluation. The evaluations themselves do not contain any personal data.

Grow, LLC processes personal information on our behalf only as directed by us and not for any other purpose. The legal basis for the processing is Art. 6 Para. 1 lit. f) DSGVO, whereby our legitimate interest lies in the optimisation and demand-oriented orientation and design of our services as well as the improvement of our services and offers.

Such a revocation impacts the permissibility of the processing of your personal data after you have issued it to us.(2) In so far as we base the processing of your personal data on the weighing of interests, you may file an objection to the processing. This is the case if the processing in particular is not necessary to fulfil a contract with you, which we will address in the following description of functions.

If you do not confirm your registration within 96 hours, your information will be blocked and automatically deleted after one month. In addition, we save the IP addresses you use, as well as the times of your registration and confirmation. We use this procedure so we can prove your registration and, if necessary, clear up any possible misuse of your personal data.

The provision of additional, specially marked data is voluntary and is used to address you personally. After your confirmation, we will save your e-mail address so we can send the newsletter.

Use of Nosto
This website uses retargeting technology from Nosto Solutions Ltd., Schützenstr. 6, 10117 Berlin, Germany (“Nosto”). This enables us to selectively use personalised, interest-based ads to reach out to our website visitors who have already shown an interest in our shop and our products.

Use of Google Adwords Conversion Tracking
We use the online advertising program “Google AdWords” on our website and, in this context, Conversion Tracking (evaluation of visit actions). Google Conversion Tracking is a web analytics service provided by Google Inc. (1600 Amphitheatre Parkway, Mountain View, CA 94043, USA; “Google”). A Conversion Tracking cookie will be installed on your computer when you click on an ad placed by Google. These cookies are valid for a limited period of time, do not contain any personal data and thus cannot be used for personal identification purposes. If you visit certain pages of our website and the cookie has not yet expired, Google and we can see that you clicked on the ad and were forwarded to this page. Each Google AdWords customer receives a different cookie. That means there is no chance that cookies can be tracked using the websites of AdWords customers.The information gathered with the Conversion cookie are used to create Conversion statistics. These inform us of the total number of users who clicked on one of our ads and were redirected to a page featuring a Conversion Tracking tag. However, we do not receive any information that allows users to be identified personally.

Additionally, you can prevent cookies from being stored by selecting the relevant technical settings in your browser software. However, we would like to point out that you may not be able to use all functions of this website to their full extent in this case. You will then be excluded from the Conversion Tracking statistics.

8 Use of social media plug-ins and media services
Social plug-ins
1) We currently use the following social media plug-ins: Facebook, Pinterest, Twitter, Instagram, Linkedin and Xing. In this context, we use the so-called two-click solution. In other words, when you visit our site, no personal data is initially passed on to the providers of the plug-ins. You can recognise the plug-in provider by the marking on the box above their initial letter or logo. We enable you to communicate directly with the provider of the plug-in via the button. Only if you click on the highlighted field and thereby activate it does the plug-in provider receive the information that you have called up the corresponding website of our online service. Furthermore, the data mentioned under § 3 of this policy are transmitted. In the case of Facebook and Xing, the IP address is anonymised immediately after collection based on the specifications of the relevant providers in Germany. Activating the plug-in thus transfers your personal data to the relevant plug-in provider, where it is then stored (in the case of American providers, in the USA). Since the plug-in provider collects data using cookies in particular, we recommend configuring the security settings of your browser to delete all cookies before clicking on the greyed-out box.(2) We have no control over the collected data and data processing, nor are we aware of the full scope of data collection, the purposes of the processing and the retention periods. We also have no information as to deletion of the data collected by the plug-in providers.
(3) The plug-in provider stores the data collected about you as usage profiles and uses it for advertising, market research and/or customising its website. Such an evaluation is performed especially (even for users who are not logged in) in order to display needs-based advertising and to inform other users of the social network about your activities on our website. You have the right to object to the creation of these user profiles, whereby you must address the plug-in provider in question to exercise this right. Using the plug-ins, we enable you to interact with social networks and other users so that we can improve our website and make it more interesting for you as a user. The legal basis for using the plug-ins is Art. 6 (1) s. 1 lit. f EU GDPR.
(4) The data is transmitted regardless of whether you have an account with the plug-in provider and are logged in there. If you are logged in with the plug-in provider, the data we collected from you will be directly assigned to your account with the plug-in provider. If you click on the activated button and, for example, link the page, the plug-in provider will also store this information in your user account and share it publicly with your contacts. We recommend regularly logging out after you use a social network, but especially before activating the button because by doing so, you can avoid information being assigned to your profile with the plug-in provider.
(5) For more information on the purpose and scope of the data collection and its processing by the plug-in provider, please refer to the privacy statements of these providers, which are provided below. There you will also find further information about your rights and configuration options for protecting your privacy.

9 Payment methods and partner programmes
Payment method: Data protection regulations concerning PayPal as a payment method
The legal basis for processing payments is Art. 6 (1) s. 1 lit. b and, if you have granted consent, lit. a EU GDPR.The party responsible for processing has integrated components of PayPal into this website. PayPal is an online payment service provider. Payments are processed using PayPal accounts that are virtual private or business accounts. PayPal also allows users with no PayPal accounts to make virtual payments using credit cards. PayPal accounts are managed using e-mail addresses, which is why there are no classic account numbers. PayPal makes it possible to make online payments to third parties and receive payments. PayPal also assumes trustee functions and offers buyer protection services.
The European company operating PayPal is PayPal (Europe) S.à.r.l. & Cie. S.C.A., 22-24 Boulevard Royal, 2449 Luxembourg, Luxembourg.
If the data subject selects the payment method “PayPal” in our online shop when placing an order, data relating to this person are automatically transferred to PayPal. By selecting this payment option, the data subject consents to the transmission of personal data required for processing payment.
Personal data transmitted to PayPal generally consists of the first name, last name, address, e-mail address, IP address, telephone number, mobile phone number and other data required for processing the payment. Personal data relating to the order in question are also necessary for processing the purchase contract.
The purpose of data transmission is to process payment and prevent fraud. PayPal transmits personal data to the party responsible for processing especially if there is legitimate interest in this transmission. In certain situations, PayPal transmits the personal data exchanged between PayPal and the party responsible for processing to credit agencies. This transfer serves to verify identity and credit history.
PayPal may forward personal data to affiliated companies and service providers or subcontractors if this is required for the fulfilment of contractual obligations or if the data is to be processed on another party’s behalf.
The data subject can revoke their consent to the handling of personal data vis-à-vis PayPal at any time. Revocations have no effect on personal data whose use or transmission is mandatory for (contractually stipulated) payment processing.
