files that are stored and stored on a computer system via an Internet

browser.

Numerous websites and servers use cookies. Many cookies contain a so-called

cookie ID. A cookie ID is a unique identifier of the cookie. It consists of a

character string through which Internet pages and servers can be assigned to

the specific Internet browser in which the cookie was stored. This enables the

visited websites and servers to distinguish the individual browser of the data

subject from other internet browsers that contain other cookies. A specific

Internet browser can be recognized and identified via the unique cookie ID.

Through the use of cookies, Oliver Wilk Lamps from Nature can provide the

users of this website with more user-friendly services that would not be

possible without the cookie setting.

Using a cookie, the information and offers on our website can be optimized for

the user. As already mentioned, cookies enable us to recognize the users of our

website. The purpose of this recognition is to make it easier for users to use our

website. For example, the user of a website that uses cookies does not have to reenter

their access data each time they visit the website because this is done by

the website and the cookie stored on the user's computer system. Another

example is the cookie of a shopping cart in the online shop. The online shop

remembers the items that a customer has placed in the virtual shopping cart via a

cookie.

4. Collection of general data and information

The Oliver Wilk Lampen aus Natur website collects a series of general data and

information each time the website is accessed by a data subject or an automated

system. This general data and information is stored in the server’s log files. What

can be recorded are the (1) browser types and versions used, (2) the operating

system used by the accessing system, (3) the website from which an accessing

system accesses our website (so-called referrers), (4) the sub-websites which are

accessible via an accessing system on our website is controlled, (5) the date and

time of access to the website, (6) an Internet protocol address (IP address), (7) the

Internet service provider of the accessing system and (8) other similar data and

information that serves to protect against threats in the event of attacks on our

information technology systems.

When using these general data and information, Oliver Wilk Lampen aus Natur

does not draw any conclusions about the data subject. Rather, this information is

needed to (1) deliver the content of our website correctly, (2) optimize the content

of our website and the advertising for it, (3) ensure the long-term functionality of

our information technology systems and the technology of our website and ( 4) to

provide law enforcement authorities with the information necessary for criminal

prosecution in the event of a cyber attack. These anonymously collected data and

information are evaluated by Oliver Wilk Lamps from Nature both statistically and

with the aim of increasing data protection and data security in our company in

order to ultimately ensure an optimal level of protection for the personal data we

process. The anonymous data in the server log files is stored separately from all

personal data provided by a data subject.

5. Registration on our website

The data subject has the opportunity to register on the website of the controller

by providing personal data. Which personal data is transmitted to the person

responsible for processing is determined by the respective input mask used for

registration. The personal data entered by the data subject will be collected and

stored exclusively for internal use by the data controller and for its own purposes.

The data controller may transfer it to one or more

Order processor, for example a parcel service provider, who also uses the

personal data exclusively for internal use that is attributable to the person

responsible for processing.

By registering on the website of the controller, the IP address assigned by the

data subject's Internet service provider (ISP) and the date and time of

registration are also stored. This data is stored against the background that this

is the only way to prevent misuse of our services and, if necessary, this data

makes it possible to investigate crimes that have been committed. In this

respect, the storage of this data is necessary to protect the data controller. In

principle, this data will not be passed on to third parties unless there is a legal

obligation to pass it on or the transfer serves the purpose of criminal

prosecution.

The registration of the data subject by voluntarily providing personal data enables

the data controller to offer the data subject content or services that, due to the

nature of the matter, can only be offered to registered users. Registered persons

are free to change the personal data provided during registration at any time or

to have it completely deleted from the data base of the person responsible for

processing.

The person responsible for processing will provide each data subject with

the time of registration as well as the date and time of registration. The collection

of this data is necessary in order to be able to understand the (possible) misuse

of the e-mail address of a data subject at a later point in time and therefore

serves to provide legal protection for the person responsible for processing.

The personal data collected when registering for the newsletter is used

exclusively to send our newsletter. Furthermore, subscribers to the newsletter

could be informed by email if this is necessary for the operation of the newsletter

service or a related registration, as could be the case in the event of changes to

the newsletter offer or a change in technical circumstances. The personal data

collected as part of the newsletter service will not be passed on to third parties.

Collection and evaluation of data about the behavior of website visitors. A web

analysis service collects, among other things, data about the website from which a

data subject came to a website (so-called referrer), which sub-pages of the

website were accessed or how often and for what duration a sub-page was

viewed. Web analysis is primarily used to optimize a website and to analyze the

cost-benefit of internet advertising.

The operating company of the Google Analytics component is Google Ireland

Limited, Gordon House, Barrow Street, Dublin, D04 E5W5, Ireland.

The person responsible for processing uses the addition “_gat._anonymizeIp” for

web analysis via Google Analytics. Using this addition, the IP address of the data

subject's Internet connection is shortened and anonymized by Google if our

website is accessed from a member state of the European Union or from another

state party to the Agreement on the European Economic Area.

The purpose of the Google Analytics component is to analyze the flow of visitors

to our website. Google uses the data and information obtained, among other

things, to evaluate the use of our website, to compile online reports for us that

show the activities on our website, and to provide other services related to the

use of our website.

Google Analytics sets a cookie on the information technology system of the data

subject. What cookies are has already been explained above. By setting the

cookie, Google is able to analyze the use of our website. Each time you access

one of the individual pages of this website, which is operated by the controller

and into which a Google Analytics component has been integrated, the Internet

browser on the information technology system of the data subject is

automatically triggered by the respective Google Analytics component to

transmit data to Google for online analysis purposes. As part of this technical

process, Google gains knowledge of personal data, such as the IP address of the

data subject, which Google uses, among other things, to track the origin of

visitors and clicks and subsequently enable commission billing.

The cookie is used to store personal information, such as the access time, the

location from which access was made and the frequency of visits to our website

by the data subject. Each time you visit our website, this personal data, including

the IP address of the Internet connection used by the data subject, is transmitted

to Google in the United States of America. This personal data is stored by Google

in the United States of America. Google gives this about that

Personal data collected through technical procedures may be passed on to third

parties.

The person concerned can prevent the setting of cookies through our website,

as already described above, at any time by means of a corresponding setting

in the Internet browser used and thus permanently object to the setting of

cookies. Such a setting of the Internet browser used would also prevent

Google from setting a cookie on the information technology system of the

data subject. In addition, a cookie already set by Google Analytics can be

deleted at any time via the Internet browser or other software programs.

The data subject also has the possibility of objecting to a collection of data

generated by Google Analytics relating to the use of this website as well as the

processing of this data by Google and the chance to prevent such. To do this, the

data subject must have a browser add-on under the linkhtt ps: //tools. Goo G

le.com /dl pa Ge / gao ptout download and install. This browser add-on tells

Google Analytics via JavaScript that no data or information about website visits

may be transmitted to Google Analytics. Installing the browser add-on is viewed

by Google as a contradiction. If the information technology system of the data

subject is deleted, formatted or reinstalled at a later date, the data subject must

reinstall the browser add-on in order to deactivate Google Analytics. If the

browser add-on is uninstalled or deactivated by the data subject or another

person within their sphere of control, it is possible to reinstall or reactivate the

browser add-on.

on our website. The conversion cookie allows both us and Google to understand

whether a data subject who reached our website via an AdWords ad generated

sales, i.e. completed or canceled a purchase of goods.

The data and information collected through the use of the conversion cookie are

used by Google to create visit statistics for our website. We in turn use these visit

statistics to determine the total number of users who were referred to us via

AdWords ads, i.e. to determine the success or failure of the respective AdWords

ad and to optimize our AdWords ads for the future . Neither our company nor

other Google AdWords advertising customers receive information from Google

that could be used to identify the data subject.

The conversion cookie is used to store personal information, such as the

websites visited by the data subject. Each time you visit our website, personal

data, including the IP address of the Internet connection used by the data

subject, is transmitted to Google in the United States of America. This personal

data is stored by Google in the United States of America. Google provides this

data collected via the technical process

personal data may be passed on to third parties.

website at any time, as described above

prevent the corresponding setting of the Internet browser used and thus

permanently object to the setting of cookies. Such a setting of the Internet

browser used would also prevent Google from setting a conversion cookie on the

information technology system of the data subject. In addition, a cookie already

set by Google AdWords can be deleted at any time via the Internet browser or

other software programs.

The data subject also has the option of objecting to interest-based advertising by

Google. To do this, the data subject must access the link from each of the internet

browsers they usewww. Goo Gle.de /settin Gs /ads and make the desired settings

DoubleClick

The person responsible for processing has integrated components from

DoubleClick by Google on this website. DoubleClick is a Google brand under

which special online marketing solutions are primarily marketed to advertising

agencies and publishers.

Operating company of Google Ireland Limited, Gordon House, Barrow

Street, Dublin, D04 E5W5, Ireland.

DoubleClick by Google transfers data to the DoubleClick server with every

impression as well as with clicks or other activities. Each of these data transfers

triggers a cookie request to the data subject's browser. If the browser accepts this

request, DoubleClick sets a cookie on the information technology system of the

data subject. What cookies are has already been explained above. The purpose of

the cookie is to optimize and display advertising. The cookie is used, among other

things, to place and display user-relevant advertising and to create reports on or

improve advertising campaigns. The cookie also serves to avoid multiple displays

of the same advertisement.

DoubleClick uses a cookie ID that is necessary to process the technical process.

The cookie ID is required, for example, to create a

Display an advertisement in a browser. DoubleClick can also use the cookie ID to

record which advertisements have already been displayed in a browser in order to

avoid double placement. The cookie ID also enables DoubleClick to record

conversions. Conversions are recorded, for example, if a user was previously

shown a DoubleClick ad and then made a purchase on the advertiser's website

using the same Internet browser.

A DoubleClick cookie does not contain any personal data. However, a

DoubleClick cookie can contain additional campaign identifiers. A campaign

identifier is used to identify the campaigns with which the user has already

been in contact.

Each time you access one of the individual pages of this website, which is

operated by the data controller and on which a DoubleClick component has been

integrated, the Internet browser on the data subject's information technology

system is automatically prompted by the respective DoubleClick component to

retrieve data for the purpose for online advertising and the billing of commissions

to Google. As part of this technical process, Google receives knowledge of data

that Google also uses to create commission statements. Google can, among other

things, understand that the data subject has clicked on certain links on our

website.

The person concerned can prevent the setting of cookies through our website, as

already described above, at any time by means of a corresponding setting in the

Internet browser used and thus permanently object to the setting of cookies.

Such a setting of the Internet browser used would also prevent Google from

setting a cookie on the information technology system of the data subject. In

addition, cookies already set by Google can be deleted at any time via an Internet

browser or other software programs.

16. Payment method: Data protection regulations for PayPal as a payment method

The person responsible for processing has integrated PayPal components on this

website. PayPal is an online payment service provider. Payments are processed

via so-called PayPal accounts, which represent virtual private or business

accounts. PayPal also offers the option of processing virtual payments via credit

cards if a user does not have a PayPal account. A PayPal account is managed via

an email address, which is why there is no traditional account number. PayPal

makes it possible to initiate online payments to third parties or to receive

payments. PayPal also assumes trustee functions and offers buyer protection

services.

The European operating company of PayPal is PayPal (Europe) S.à.rl et Cie, SCA,

22-24 Boulevard Royal L-2449, Luxembourg.

If the data subject selects “PayPal” as a payment option during the ordering

process in our online shop, the data of the data subject is automatically

transmitted to PayPal. By selecting this payment option, the data subject

consents to the transmission of personal data required for payment processing.

The personal data transmitted to PayPal is usually first name, last name, address,

email address, IP address, telephone number, mobile phone number or other

data that is necessary for payment processing. In order to process the purchase

contract, personal data that is related to the respective order is also necessary.

The purpose of transmitting the data is to process payments and prevent

fraud. The person responsible for processing will transmit personal data to

PayPal in particular if there is a legitimate interest in the transmission. The

personal data exchanged between PayPal and the person responsible for

processing may be transmitted by PayPal to credit reporting agencies. The

purpose of this transmission is to check identity and creditworthiness.

PayPal may pass on personal data to affiliated companies and service providers

or subcontractors to the extent that this is necessary to fulfill contractual

obligations or the data is to be processed on behalf of the customer.

The data subject has the option to revoke their consent to the handling of

personal data at any time from PayPal. A revocation does not affect personal

data that must be processed, used or transmitted for (contractual) payment

processing.

processing

Art. 6 I lit. a GDPR serves our company as the legal basis for processing

operations in which we obtain consent for a specific processing purpose. Is the

processing of personal data

is necessary for the performance of a contract to which the data subject is a party,

as is the case, for example, with processing operations that are necessary for the

delivery of goods or the provision of other services or consideration, the

processing is based on Art. 6 I lit . b GDPR. The same applies to processing

operations that are necessary to carry out pre-contractual measures, for example

in cases of inquiries about our products or services. Is our company subject to a

legal obligation that requires us to process data

If personal data is required, for example to fulfill tax obligations, the processing is

based on Art. 6 I lit. c GDPR. In rare cases, the processing of personal data may be

necessary to protect the vital interests of the data subject or another natural

person. This would be the case, for example, if a visitor were injured in our

company and his name, age, health insurance details or other vital information

would then have to be passed on to a doctor, hospital or other third party. Then

the processing would be based on Art. 6 I lit. d GDPR. Ultimately, processing

operations could be based on Art. 6 I lit. f GDPR. Based on this legal basis

Processing operations that are not covered by any of the above-mentioned legal

bases if the processing is necessary to safeguard a legitimate interest of our

company or a third party, provided that the interests, fundamental rights and

freedoms of the data subject do not prevail. We are permitted to carry out such

processing operations in particular because they have been specifically

mentioned by the European legislator. In this respect, he was of the opinion that

a legitimate interest could be assumed if the data subject is a customer of the

controller (Recital 47 Sentence 2 GDPR).

18. Legitimate interests in processing pursued by the controller or a third party

If the processing of personal data is based on Article 6 I lit. f GDPR, our legitimate

interest is to carry out our business activities for the benefit of the well-being of

all our employees and our shareholders. 19. Duration for which the personal data

will be stored

The criterion for the duration of storage of personal data is the respective

statutory retention period. After the deadline has expired, the relevant data will

be routinely deleted unless it is no longer required to fulfill the contract or initiate

a contract.

20. Legal or contractual regulations governing the provision of personal

data; Necessity for the conclusion of the contract; Obligation of the data

subject to provide the personal data; possible consequences of nonprovision

We would like to clarify that the provision of personal data is partly required by

law (e.g. tax regulations) or is also required

can result from contractual provisions (e.g. information about the contractual

partner). In order to conclude a contract, it may sometimes be necessary for a

data subject to provide us with personal data, which must subsequently be

processed by us. For example, the data subject is obliged to provide us with

personal data if our company enters into a contract with them. Failure to provide

the personal data would mean that the contract with the person concerned could

not be concluded. Before the data subject provides personal data, the data

subject must contact one of our employees. Our employee will inform those

affected on a case-by-case basis whether the provision of personal data is

required by law or contract or for

Conclusion of the contract is necessary, whether there is an obligation

to provide the personal data and what consequences the nonprovision

of the personal data would have.

21. Existence of automated decision making

As a responsible company, we do not use automatic decision-making

or profiling.

generator of DGD Deutsche Gesellschaft für Datenschutz GmbH, which acts as

external data protection officer in Ingolstadt, in cooperation with the IT and data
