Our website uses so-called social plugins from third party providers, e.g. Facebook, Twitter or Google+. The plugins are marked with the provider's logo and can be like buttons or a Google+ button or Twitter button, for example. When you access a website that contains such a plugin, your browser establishes a direct connection to the provider's computers. The content of the plugin is transmitted directly from the offering site to your browser and integrated into the website. By integrating the plugins, the provider receives the information that you have accessed our website. If you are registered and logged in with the provider at the same time, the provider can assign the visit to your profile.

If you have placed orders with us via an active customer account, we process these specific data records to enrich the personalised advertising.

For example, to display brand-specific special offers or interest-driven advertising (banner, website or newsletter). In addition, we create impersonal target group segments for all customer data. This usually includes an evaluation of age groups, or the analysis of specific purchasing behaviour. At no time will personal data be enriched or used outside your customer account. Our IT system landscape protects the customer account several times against external access. You can also exclude your own data record from these evaluations at any time.
