Contacting us

Whenever you contact us via the website, the data you have entered (for example: name, address, postcode/place, phone, email and your message) is stored with us so we can process the query or in case of follow-up queries. If your query is of no interest to us it will promptly be deleted together with all personal data. In all other cases we retain your information as evidence until you revoke it by contacting info@hamburg-eyewear.de. We do not pass on your data without your consent.

We process the data for the following purposes:
– to enable you to visit the website,
– to optimize and further develop the website,
– and to answer your inquiries.

If you provide us with personal data voluntarily, then by entering the data you agree to store it electronically in accordance with the purpose. This data is stored securely and is not passed on to third parties, unless we are legally obliged to pass it on to state institutions. If you decide not to provide the data, certain functions of the website may be restricted or unusable.

Legal basis for processing

The legal basis for the processing of your personal data by us as a result of your visit to our website is therefore based on consent in accordance with Art. 6 Para. 1 lit. a. and Art. 7 GDPR, from Art. 6 Para. 1 lit. b. GDPR for processing to fulfil our tasks and carry out contractual measures, from Art. 6 Para. 1 lit. c. GDPR for processing to fulfil our legal obligations and from Art. 6 Para. 1 lit. f. GDPR for processing to safeguard our legitimate interests in order to achieve the purposes mentioned. We would like to point out that data transmission on the Internet (e.g. when communicating by e-mail or via unencrypted websites) can have security gaps. Complete protection of data against access by third parties is not possible.

Storage period

Personal data in accordance with Art. 4 No. 1 GDPR is only stored by us for as long as it is absolutely necessary to provide our services. In some areas, however, there are legal obligations to store data even after the purpose no longer applies.

SSL encryption

This site uses SSL encryption for security reasons and to protect the transmission of confidential content, such as requests 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/or by the lock symbol in your browser line. If SSL encryption is activated, the data that you send to us cannot be read by third parties.

Server log files

The provider of the site 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, host name of the accessing computer, time of the server request, IP address. This data cannot be assigned to specific people. This data is not merged with other data sources. We reserve the right to subsequently check this data if we become aware of concrete evidence of illegal use.

Online shop for traders

We kindly remind you that in order to facilitate shopping procedures and later contract handling within the framework of cookies, the subscriber’s IP data is stored as well as his or her first name and surname, the street and house number, postcode, place, country and company (if specified). Furthermore, the following data is stored by us for the purposes of contract handling: first name and surname, email, phone, postcode, country, federal state, street and house number, place and tax number. The data provided by you is necessary in order to fulfil contracts or pre-contractual measures, without which we would be unable to conclude a contract with you. A transfer of data to third parties does not take place, excepting transmission to our assigned carrier/shipping company to allow delivery of goods and to our tax consultant in order to fulfil our fiscal requirements. When the shopping process is stopped, the data stored with us is deleted. When a contract is concluded, all data pertaining to the contractual relationship is stored until the statutory retention period is over. The data concerning name, address, goods purchased, and date of purchase is stored beyond this period until the termination of product liability. The data processing is carried out on the basis of statutory regulations on consent and insofar as it is necessary to fulfil contractual obligations.

Cookies

Our website uses so-called cookies. These are small text files which are stored on your terminal with the help of a browser, but which do not cause any damage.

We use cookies in order to make our service user-friendly. Some cookies remain stored on your terminal until you delete them, and allow us to recognise your browser the next time you visit us. If you do not wish this to happen, you can set your browser in such a way that it informs you when it is setting up cookies, and that you consent to this on a case-by-case basis only. If you decide to deactivate cookies, the functionality of our website may be impaired, and this action may negatively affect the appearance of the site and your user experience.

Technically necessary cookies (not optional)

Necessary and functional cookies are essential for the basic functions of the website to work. This category only contains cookies that ensure basic functions and security features of the website. These cookies do not store any personal information. These include session cookies, which are created automatically and which increase the security of communication between server and client, as well as the cookie settings themselves, which store the cookie settings set. Another category is functional cookies, which you can deactivate via your browser. However, they affect certain functions such as accessing protected pages (login handling) or the proper functioning of a web shop.

Non-necessary cookies (consent required)

All cookies that are not strictly necessary for the functioning of the website and that are specifically used to collect personal user data via analytics, ads and other embedded content are referred to as non-necessary cookies. For example, targeted cookies (e.g. analysis tools), marketing cookies (delivery of targeted advertising) or social media widgets (loading images, videos directly from the social media provider, which leads to the exchange of data with this network). This requires your mandatory consent, which is displayed when the button is activated.

The legal basis for the processing of personal data using cookies is Art. 6 Para. 1 /a GDPR for consent-related cookies.

Statistics, web analysis with Matomo

We use the open source software tool Matomo on our website, which was set up on a virtual server of the data center Hetzner Online GmbH, Sigmundstraße 135, 90431 Nürnberg, Germany. This ensures that no data is transmitted to third parties and that the data remains under our control. Matomo uses cookies. These cookies allow us to count visits. These text files are stored on your computer and enable us to analyze the use of our website. The last two character blocks of your IP address are marked, so we have no technical way of clearly identifying you as a user. We see this analysis as part of an Internet service in order to be able to further improve the website and adapt it even better to the needs of users.

With the cookie content when you use our site for the first time, you have the option of agreeing whether a web analysis cookie may be stored in your browser to enable us to collect and analyze statistical data. If you wish to opt out, click the following link to add the Matomo deactivation cookie to your browser.
