7.1 Registration for our email newsletter
When you subscribe to our email newsletter, we will regularly send you information about our offers. The only mandatory information required to send you the newsletter is your email address. Providing any further information is voluntary and is used to personalize our communications with you. We use the double opt-in procedure for sending our newsletter. This means that we will only send you an email newsletter after you have explicitly confirmed that you consent to receiving it. We will then send you a confirmation email asking you to click on a link to confirm that you wish to receive the newsletter in the future.
By activating the confirmation link, you give us your consent to use your personal data in accordance with Article 6 Paragraph 1 Letter a of the GDPR. When you subscribe to the newsletter, we store your IP address, which is registered by your internet service provider (ISP), as well as the date and time of registration, in order to be able to trace any potential misuse of your email address at a later date. The data we collect when you subscribe to the newsletter is used exclusively for sending you promotional material via the newsletter. You can unsubscribe from the newsletter at any time via the unsubscribe link provided in the newsletter or by sending a corresponding message to the data controller named above. After you unsubscribe, your email address will be immediately deleted from our newsletter mailing list, unless you have expressly consented to further use of your data or we reserve the right to use your data for other purposes permitted by law, about which we inform you in this privacy policy.

If you initially objected to the use of your email address for this purpose, we will not send you any emails. You have the right to object to the use of your email address for the aforementioned advertising purpose at any time with effect for the future by sending a message to the data controller named at the beginning of this document.

7.3 Sending newsletters via Shopify Email
Our email newsletters are sent via Shopify Email, a service of Shopify International Limited, Victoria Buildings, 2nd Floor, 1-2 Haddington Road, Dublin 4, D04 XN32, Ireland ("Shopify"), to whom we transfer the data you provided when subscribing to the newsletter. This transfer is based on Art. 6 para. 1 lit. f GDPR and serves our legitimate interest in using an effective, secure, and user-friendly newsletter system. The data you entered for newsletter subscription (e.g., email address) is generally stored on Shopify's servers in the EU.

In the event of data transfer to Shopify Inc. in Canada, an adequate level of data protection is ensured by an adequacy decision of the European Commission.
Shopify uses this information to send and statistically analyze newsletters on our behalf. For this analysis, the emails sent may contain web beacons or tracking pixels, which are single-pixel image files stored on our website. This allows us to determine whether a newsletter message has been opened and which links, if any, have been clicked. Technical information is also collected (e.g., time of access, IP address, browser type, and operating system). The data is collected exclusively in pseudonymized form and is not linked to your other personal data; direct identification of individuals is therefore impossible. This data is used solely for the statistical analysis of newsletter campaigns. The results of these analyses can be used to better tailor future newsletters to the interests of the recipients. If you wish to object to this data analysis for statistical evaluation purposes, you must unsubscribe from the newsletter.
Furthermore, Shopify may use this data itself, in accordance with Article 6(1)(f) GDPR, based on its own legitimate interest in tailoring and optimizing the service to user needs and for market research purposes, such as determining the countries of origin of the recipients. However, Shopify does not use the data of our newsletter recipients to contact them directly or to share the data with third parties.
We have entered into a data processing agreement with Shopify, which obliges Shopify to protect our customers' data and not to pass it on to third parties.

These customers learn the total number of users who clicked on their ad and were redirected to a page with a conversion tracking tag. However, they do not receive any information that can personally identify users. If you do not wish to participate in tracking, you can block this by disabling the Google Conversion Tracking cookie in your internet browser under "User settings." You will then not be included in the conversion tracking statistics. We use Google Ads based on our legitimate interest in targeted advertising pursuant to Art. 6 para. 1 lit. f GDPR.
