4. Data processing for payment processing
When processing payments in our online shop, we work with the following partners: technical service providers, credit institutions and payment service providers.
4.1 Data processing for transaction processing
Depending on the selected payment method, we pass on the data necessary for processing the payment transaction to our technical service providers, the commissioned credit institutions or the selected payment service provider, insofar as this is necessary to process the payment. This serves the purpose of fulfilling the contract in accordance with Article 6(1), first sentence, point (b) of the GDPR. In some cases, the payment service providers collect the data required for processing the payment themselves, e.g. on their own website or via a technical integration into the ordering process. In this respect, the privacy policy of the respective payment service provider applies.
Depending on the payment method selected, data may be transferred to third countries outside the EU/EEA for which the European Commission has, by means of a decision, determined that an adequate level of data protection exists. Where data is transferred to third countries outside the EU/EEA for which the European Commission has not adopted a decision on an adequate level of data protection, the cooperation is based on the European Commission´s Standard Data Protection Clauses.
If you have any questions regarding our payment processing partners or the basis of our cooperation with them, please use the contact details provided in this privacy policy.

Provided you have given your consent in accordance with Article 6(1)(a) of the GDPR, Trusted Shops widgets are integrated into this website to display Trusted Shops services (e.g. quality seals, collected reviews) and to offer Trusted Shops products to buyers following an order.
The Trustbadge and the services advertised through it are provided by Trusted Shops SE, Subbelrather Str. 15C, 50823 Cologne ("Trusted Shops"), with whom we are joint data controllers under Article 26 of the GDPR. In this privacy notice, we set out below the key terms of the agreement in accordance with Article 26(2) of the GDPR.

8.1 Data processing when integrating the Trustbadge/other widgets
The Trustbadge is provided by a US-based CDN (Content Delivery Network) provider. An adequate level of data protection is ensured in each case by an adequacy decision of the European Commission, which is available for the USA here. Service providers from the US used are generally certified under the EU-US Data Privacy Framework (DPF). Further information is available here. Where service providers used are not certified under the DPF, standard contractual clauses have been agreed as a suitable safeguard.
When the Trustbadge is accessed, the web server automatically stores a so-called server log file, which also contains your IP address, the date and time of access, the volume of data transferred and the requesting provider (access data), and documents the access. The IP address is anonymised immediately after collection, so that the stored data cannot be linked to you personally. The anonymised data is used in particular for statistical purposes and for error analysis.
8.2 Data processing after completion of an order
Provided you have given your consent, once the order has been completed, the Trustbadge accesses the order information stored on your device (order total, order number, product purchased where applicable) as well as your email address, and your email address is hashed using a cryptographic one-way function. The hash value is then transmitted to Trusted Shops together with the order information in accordance with Article 6(1)(a) of the GDPR. This serves to verify whether you are already registered for Trusted Shops' services. If this is the case, further processing takes place in accordance with the contractual agreement between you and Trusted Shops. You can find this for Germany here; for Austria here and for Switzerland here. If you have not yet registered for the services or do not give your consent to automatic recognition via the Trustbadge, you will subsequently be given the opportunity to register manually to use the services or to take out cover under any existing user agreement you may have.
To this end, once you have completed your order, the Trustbadge accesses the following information stored on the device you are using: order total, order number and email address. This is necessary so that we can offer you buyer protection. The data will only be transmitted to Trusted Shops once you have actively chosen to take out buyer protection by clicking on the button labelled accordingly in the so-called Trustcard. If you choose to use the services, further processing is governed by the contractual agreement with Trusted Shops in accordance with Article 6(1)(b) of the GDPR, in order to complete your registration for buyer protection, secure your order and, where applicable, subsequently send you review invitations by email.
Trusted Shops uses service providers in the areas of hosting, monitoring and logging. The legal basis for this is Article 6(1)(f) of the GDPR, for the purpose of ensuring trouble-free operation. Processing may take place in third countries (the USA, the UK and Israel). An adequate level of data protection is ensured in each case by an adequacy decision of the European Commission, which for the USA can be found here, for the UK here and for Israel here. Service providers from the USA are generally certified under the EU-US Data Privacy Framework (DPF). Further information is available here. Where service providers used are not certified under the DPF, standard contractual clauses have been agreed as an appropriate safeguard.
