One or more online payment methods from the following provider are available on this website: Amazon Payments Europe s.c.a., 38 avenue J.F. Kennedy, L-1855 Luxembourg

If you select a payment method from the provider for which you make payment in advance (e.g. credit card payment), your payment data provided during the order process (including name, address, bank and payment card information, currency and transaction number) as well as information about the content of your order will be passed on to the provider according to Art. 6 para. 1 lit. b GDPR. Data is transferred solely for the purpose of payment processing with the provider and only as far as necessary.
- Apple Pay

If you select the “Apple Pay” payment method from Apple Distribution International (Apple), Hollyhill Industrial Estate, Hollyhill, Cork, Ireland, payment is processed via the “Apple Pay” feature of your iOS, watchOS or macOS device by charging a payment card stored in “Apple Pay”. Apple Pay uses security features built into your device's hardware and software to protect your transactions. To authorise a payment, entry of a code previously set by you and verification via the Face ID or Touch ID function of your device is required.

For payment processing, your information provided during the order process together with order content is transferred to Apple in encrypted form. Apple then re-encrypts this data with a developer-specific key before transmitting it for payment to the payment service provider of the payment card stored in Apple Pay. The encryption ensures that only the website through which the purchase was made can access the payment data. After payment is made, Apple sends your device account number and a transaction-specific, dynamic security code to the originating website to confirm payment success.

If personal data is processed during the described transmissions, this occurs exclusively for payment processing pursuant to Art. 6 para. 1 lit. b GDPR.

Apple stores anonymised transaction data, including approximate purchase amount, approximate date and time, and whether the transaction was successfully completed. The anonymisation ensures that any personal reference is completely excluded. Apple uses anonymised data to improve “Apple Pay” and other Apple products and services.

If you use Apple Pay on iPhone or Apple Watch to complete a purchase via Safari on your Mac, the Mac and the authorisation device communicate via an encrypted channel on Apple's servers. Apple does not process or store any of this information in a format that can identify you. You can disable the ability to use Apple Pay on your Mac in your iPhone settings. Go to “Wallet & Apple Pay” and disable “Allow payments on Mac”.

Further privacy notices for Apple Pay are available at the following internet address: https://support.apple.com/de-de/HT203027

To safeguard our legitimate interest in determining the creditworthiness of customers, we forward this data to the provider for credit checks in accordance with Art. 6 para. 1 lit. f GDPR. The provider assesses, on the basis of the personal data provided by you as well as other data (such as basket contents, invoice amount, order history, payment experience), whether the payment option selected by you can be made available having regard to payment and/or bad debt risks.

In making a decision within the framework of the application check, in addition to internal provider criteria under Art. 6 para. 1 lit. f GDPR, identity and creditworthiness data from the following credit agencies may also be used:

Through the use of the tool, all cookies/services requiring consent are only loaded if the relevant user has given consent by ticking a box. This ensures that such cookies are only set on the respective user's device if consent has been given.

The tool sets technically necessary cookies to save your cookie preferences. Personal user data is generally not processed in the process.

If, in individual cases, personal data (such as the IP address) is processed for the purpose of saving, assigning, or logging cookie settings, this is done according to Art. 6 para. 1 lit. f GDPR on the basis of our legitimate interest in lawful, user-specific, and user-friendly consent management for cookies and therefore a lawful design of our website.

Another legal basis for processing is also Art. 6 para. 1 lit. c GDPR. As controllers, we are legally obliged to make the use of technically unnecessary cookies dependent on the respective user's consent.

Where necessary, we have concluded an order processing agreement with the provider, which ensures the protection of the data of our website visitors and prohibits unauthorised disclosure to third parties.

Your data will only be transferred for the purpose of payment processing with the provider and only to the extent necessary for this purpose.
- Apple Pay

If you decide to use the “Apple Pay” payment method of Apple Distribution International (Apple), Hollyhill Industrial Estate, Hollyhill, Cork, Ireland, the payment is processed via the “Apple Pay” function of your iOS, watchOS or macOS device by charging a payment card stored in “Apple Pay”. Apple Pay uses security functions that are integrated into your device’s hardware and software to protect your transactions. To authorise a payment, you must enter a code previously set by you and verify with the "Face ID" or "Touch ID" function of your device.

For the purpose of payment processing, the information you provide during the order process, together with information about your order, is transmitted to Apple in encrypted form. Apple then re-encrypts this data with a developer-specific key before transmitting the data to the payment service provider of the payment card stored in Apple Pay to make the payment. This encryption ensures that only the website through which the purchase was made can access the payment data. After the payment has been made, Apple sends your device account number and a transaction-specific, dynamic security code to the originating website to confirm the success of the payment.

If personal data is processed during the described transfers, processing is carried out exclusively for the purpose of payment processing in accordance with Art. 6 para. 1 lit. b GDPR.

Apple stores anonymised transaction data, such as the approximate purchase amount, the approximate date and time, and about whether the transaction was completed successfully. The anonymisation completely excludes any reference to a person. Apple uses the anonymised data to improve "Apple Pay" and other Apple products and services.

If you use Apple Pay on your iPhone or Apple Watch to complete a purchase you made via Safari on your Mac, the Mac and the authorisation device communicate via an encrypted channel on the Apple servers. Apple does not process or store any of these details in a format that can be used to identify you. You can disable the option to use Apple Pay on your Mac in your iPhone settings. Go to “Wallet & Apple Pay” and deactivate “Allow payments on Mac”.

To safeguard our legitimate interest in determining the creditworthiness of our customers, we transmit this data to the provider for the purpose of a credit assessment in accordance with Art. 6 para. 1 lit. f GDPR. The provider checks, on the basis of the personal data you have provided and other data (such as shopping basket, invoice amount, order history, payment experiences), whether the payment method you have selected can be granted with regard to payment and/or bad debt risks.

For the decision within the scope of the application check, identities and credit information from the following credit agencies may be included in addition to provider-internal criteria in accordance with Art. 6 para. 1 lit. f GDPR:

Only consent-requiring cookies/services are loaded during the use of the tool if the respective user grants the corresponding consent by ticking the box. It is thus ensured that such cookies are only set on the respective user's end device if consent is given.

The tool sets technically necessary cookies to save your cookie preferences. Personal user data is generally not processed in the process.

If, in individual cases, personal data (such as the IP address) is processed for the purpose of storing, assigning or logging cookie settings, this is done in accordance with Art. 6 para. 1 lit. f GDPR on the basis of our legitimate interest in a legally compliant, user-specific and user-friendly management of consent for cookies and therefore in a legally compliant design of our online presence.

Another legal basis for processing is Art. 6 para. 1 lit. c GDPR. As the controller, we are subject to the legal obligation to make the use of technically unnecessary cookies dependent on the respective user's consent.

If necessary, we have concluded a data processing contract with the provider, which ensures the protection of the data of our website visitors and prohibits unauthorised disclosure to third parties.
