We would like to point out that data transmission over the Internet (e.g. when communicating by email) may have security gaps. Complete protection of data against access by third parties is not possible.

Revocation of your consent to data processing

SSL or TLS encryption
This site uses SSL or TLS encryption for security reasons and to protect the transmission of confidential content, such as orders or inquiries that you send to us as the site operator. You can recognize an encrypted connection by the fact that the address line of the browser changes from "http://" to "https://" and by the lock symbol in your browser line.

If SSL or TLS encryption is activated, the data you send to us cannot be read by third parties.

Encrypted payment transactions on this website
If, after concluding a paid contract, you are obliged to provide us with your payment details (e.g. account number for direct debit authorization), these details will be required to process the payment.

Payment transactions using common payment methods (Visa/MasterCard, direct debit) are carried out exclusively via an encrypted SSL or TLS connection. You can recognize an encrypted connection by the fact that the address line of the browser changes from "http://" to "https://" and by the lock symbol in your browser line.

With encrypted communication, your payment data that you send to us cannot be read by third parties.

information, blocking, deletion
Within the framework of the applicable legal provisions, you have the right at any time to obtain free information about your stored personal data, its origin and recipient and the purpose of data processing and, if applicable, a right to correction, blocking or deletion of this data. You can contact us at any time at the address provided in the imprint if you have any questions about this or other questions on the subject of personal data.

The use of contact data published as part of the imprint obligation to send unsolicited advertising and information materials is hereby prohibited. The operators of the pages expressly reserve the right to take legal action in the event of unsolicited advertising information being sent, for example through spam emails.

2. Data collection on our website

cookies
Some of the websites use so-called cookies. Cookies do not harm your computer and do not contain viruses. Cookies are used to make our service more user-friendly, effective and secure. Cookies are small text files that are stored on your computer and saved by your browser.

Most of the cookies we use are so-called “session cookies”. They are automatically deleted at the end of your visit. Other cookies remain stored on your device until you delete them. These cookies enable us to recognize your browser the next time you visit.

You can set your browser so that you are informed about the setting of cookies and only allow cookies in individual cases, exclude the acceptance of cookies for certain cases or in general and activate the automatic deletion of cookies when closing the browser. If cookies are deactivated, the functionality of this website may be restricted.

Cookies that are required to carry out the electronic communication process or to provide certain functions you require (e.g. shopping cart function) are stored on the basis of Art. 6 Paragraph 1 Letter f of GDPR. The website operator has a legitimate interest in storing cookies to ensure technically error-free and optimized provision of its services. If other cookies (e.g. cookies to analyze your surfing behavior) are stored, these are treated separately in this data protection declaration.

server log files
The provider of the pages automatically collects and stores information in so-called server log files, which your browser automatically transmits to us. These are:

• browser type and version
• operating system used
• referrer URL
• hostname of the accessing computer
• time of the server request
• IP address

This data will not be merged with other data sources. The basis for data processing is Art. 6 (1) (f) GDPR, which permits the processing of data to fulfill a contract or for pre-contractual measures.

contact form
If you send us inquiries using the contact form, your details from the inquiry form, including the contact details you provided there, will be stored by us for the purpose of processing the inquiry and in the event of follow-up questions. We will not pass on this data without your consent.

The data entered in the contact form is therefore processed exclusively on the basis of your consent (Art. 6 Para. 1 lit. a GDPR). You can revoke this consent at any time. All you need to do is send us an informal email. The legality of the data processing operations carried out up to the time of revocation remains unaffected by the revocation.

The data you enter in the contact form will remain with us until you request deletion, revoke your consent to storage or the purpose for storing the data no longer applies (e.g. after your request has been processed). Mandatory legal provisions - in particular retention periods - remain unaffected.

processing of data (customer and contract data)
We only collect, process and use personal data to the extent that it is necessary for the establishment, content design or modification of the legal relationship (master data). This is done on the basis of Art. 6 Paragraph 1 Letter b of GDPR, which permits the processing of data to fulfill a contract or pre-contractual measures. We only collect, process and use personal data about the use of our websites (usage data) to the extent that this is necessary to enable the user to use the service or to bill them.

The customer data collected will be deleted after completion of the order or termination of the business relationship. Statutory retention periods remain unaffected.

Data transfer when concluding a contract for online shops, retailers and shipping of goods
We only transmit personal data to third parties if this is necessary for the performance of the contract, for example to the company entrusted with the delivery of the goods or the credit institution responsible for processing the payment. The data will not be transmitted to any other parties or will only be transmitted if you have expressly consented to the transmission. Your data will not be passed on to third parties without your express consent, for example for advertising purposes.

The basis for data processing is Art. 6 (1) (b) GDPR, which permits the processing of data to fulfill a contract or for pre-contractual measures.

videos
Our pages contain a social plugin that allows you to view content from YouTube. The legal basis for this is Art. 6 Paragraph 1 Letter f) of GDPR. The function of this social plugin is deactivated by default so that you have full control over your data. A connection to YouTube's servers is only established when you activate the display of content from YouTube. You must give your consent for each video individually.

Please note that we, as the provider of the website www.storchenwiege.de, have no knowledge of the content of the transmitted data or its use by YouTube.

Overview and origin of the social plugins that can be activated: Social plugins from YouTube LLC, 901 Cherry Ave. San Bruno, CA 94066 USA. You can find YouTube's privacy policy at: www.google.de/intl/de/policies/privacy .

Facebook Pixel
Our website uses the visitor action pixel from Facebook, Facebook Inc., 1601 S. California Ave, Palo Alto, CA 94304, USA (“Facebook”) to measure conversions.

This allows the behavior of site visitors to be tracked after they have been redirected to the provider's website by clicking on a Facebook ad. This allows the effectiveness of Facebook ads to be evaluated for statistical and market research purposes and future advertising measures to be optimized.

The data collected is anonymous to us as the operator of this website; we cannot draw any conclusions about the identity of the users. However, the data is stored and processed by Facebook so that a connection to the respective user profile is possible and Facebook can use the data for its own advertising purposes in accordance with the Facebook data usage policy ( https://de-de.facebook.com/about/privacy/ ). This enables Facebook to enable advertisements to be placed on Facebook pages and outside of Facebook. We as the website operator cannot influence this use of the data.

The use of Facebook Pixel is based on Art. 6 (1) (f) GDPR. The website operator has a legitimate interest in effective advertising measures, including social media.

You can find further information on protecting your privacy in Facebook’s privacy policy: https://de-de.facebook.com/about/privacy/ .

You can also deactivate the “Custom Audiences” remarketing function in the Ad Settings section at https://www.facebook.com/ads/preferences/?entry_product=ad_settings_screen . To do this, you must be logged in to Facebook.

If you do not have a Facebook account, you can deactivate usage-based advertising from Facebook on the website of the European Interactive Digital Advertising Alliance: http://www.youronlinechoices.com/de/praferenzmanagement/ .

Google Analytics
This website uses the "Google Analytics" service, which is offered by Google Inc. (1600 Amphitheatre Parkway Mountain View, CA 94043, USA), to analyze website usage by users. The service uses "cookies" - text files that are stored on your device. The information collected by the cookies is usually sent to a Google server in the USA and stored there.

IP anonymization is used on this website. The IP address of users is shortened within the member states of the EU and the European Economic Area. This shortening means that your IP address is no longer personally identifiable. As part of the order processing agreement that the website operators have concluded with Google Inc., Google uses the information collected to evaluate website usage and website activity and to provide services related to internet usage.

You have the option of preventing cookies from being saved on your device by making the appropriate settings in your browser. There is no guarantee that you will be able to access all functions of this website without restrictions if your browser does not accept cookies. You can also use a browser plug-in to prevent the information collected by cookies (including your IP address) from being sent to and used by Google Inc. The following link will take you to the corresponding plug-in: https://tools.google.com/dlpage/gaoptout?hl=de
