Where you select a payment option in which the provider makes an advance (e.g., invoice or instalment purchase, or direct debit), you will also be asked during checkout to provide personal information (name, address, date of birth, e-mail address, phone number, possibly details of an alternative payment method).

9) Web Analytics Services
9.1 Google Tag Manager
This website uses the “Google Tag Manager”, a service provided by Google Ireland Limited, Gordon House, Barrow Street, Dublin 4, Ireland (“Google”).
The Google Tag Manager provides a technical framework that allows us to bundle various web applications – including tracking and analytics tools – and calibrate, control, and link them via a single user interface.
The Tag Manager itself does not store or read any information on users’ devices and does not perform any independent analysis of data. However, when a page is loaded, your IP address may be transmitted to Google and stored there; data may also be transferred to servers of Google LLC in the USA.
This processing is carried out only if you have given us your explicit consent under Art. 6(1)(a) GDPR. Without consent, Google Tag Manager will not be used during your visit. You can revoke your consent at any time with future effect by disabling this service in the cookie-consent tool provided on the website.
We have concluded a data-processing agreement with the provider to protect visitors’ data and prevent unauthorised disclosure.
For transfers to the USA, the provider participates in the EU–U.S. Data Privacy Framework, which ensures an adequate level of protection.

9.2 Wix Analytics
This website uses the web analytics service provided by Wix HQ, 6350671, Nemal Tel Aviv St 40, Tel Aviv-Yafo, Israel.
By means of cookies and/or similar technologies (tracking pixels, web beacons, algorithms for reading device and browser data), the service collects and stores pseudonymised visitor data – including information about the device used, such as IP address and browser information – to evaluate them for statistical analyses of user behaviour and to create pseudonymised usage profiles.
For example, it is possible to analyse movement patterns (“heatmaps”), the duration of visits, and interactions with page content (text entries, scrolling, clicks, and mouse-overs).
Pseudonymisation generally prevents direct attribution to a person. Data is not combined with other clear data collected about you.
All of the above processing, in particular reading or storing information on the device used, is carried out only if you have given us explicit consent under Art. 6(1)(a) GDPR. You may withdraw your consent at any time with effect for the future by disabling this service in the cookie-consent tool on the site.
We have concluded a data-processing agreement with the provider to protect visitors’ data and prevent unauthorised disclosure.
For transfers to Israel, an adequate level of protection is ensured by an adequacy decision of the European Commission.

Processing takes place only if you have given explicit consent (Art. 6(1)(a) GDPR). Consent can be revoked at any time via the cookie-consent tool. If your browser does not support web fonts, a default font from your computer will be used.

The service checks whether an entry is made by a human or by automated processing, blocking spam, DDoS attacks, and similar harmful access. To ensure an action is performed by a human, the provider collects the IP address, browser and OS type, date and duration of the visit, and transmits them to Google’s servers. Cookies may be used.
If cookies are involved, they are set only with your explicit consent (Art. 6(1)(a) GDPR). Consent can be withdrawn at any time via the cookie tool. Where processing occurs without cookies, it is based on our legitimate interest in preventing abuse and spam (Art. 6(1)(f) GDPR).

11) Tools and Miscellaneous
Cookie Consent Tool
This website uses a so-called “cookie consent tool” to obtain valid user consent for cookies and cookie-based applications requiring consent.
When you visit our pages, the tool is displayed as an interactive interface where you can give consent for certain cookies and/or cookie-based applications by ticking checkboxes.
The tool ensures that consent-based cookies/services are only loaded if you have given the respective consent.
Technically necessary cookies are set by the tool to store your preferences. Personal data is generally not processed for this purpose.
If, in individual cases, processing of personal data (such as your IP address) is required to save, assign, or log cookie settings, this is carried out in accordance with Art. 6(1)(f) GDPR, based on our legitimate interest in legally compliant, user-specific, and user-friendly consent management and thus in a legally compliant design of our online presence.
Another legal basis is Art. 6(1)(c) GDPR, since we are legally obliged as controllers to make the use of technically unnecessary cookies dependent on the respective user’s consent.
Where necessary, we have concluded a data-processing agreement with the provider to ensure the protection of visitors’ data and to prevent unauthorised disclosure.
For more information about the operator and settings of the cookie consent tool, please refer to the relevant interface on our website.

The period for which personal data is stored is determined by the respective legal basis, the processing purpose, and—if applicable—the statutory retention period (e.g., commercial and tax retention periods).
Where data is processed on the basis of explicit consent (Art. 6(1)(a) GDPR), the data will be stored until you withdraw your consent.
If statutory retention periods exist for data processed on the basis of Art. 6(1)(b) GDPR (contractual or pre-contractual obligations), such data will be routinely deleted after the retention period has expired, unless they are still needed for contract performance or initiation or unless we have a legitimate interest in continued storage.
Where personal data is processed on the basis of Art. 6(1)(f) GDPR, such data will be stored until you exercise your right to object under Art. 21(1) GDPR, unless we can demonstrate compelling legitimate grounds for the processing that override your interests, rights, and freedoms, or unless the processing serves the establishment, exercise, or defence of legal claims.
For data processed for direct marketing purposes under Art. 6(1)(f) GDPR, the data will be stored until you exercise your right to object under Art. 21(2) GDPR.
Unless otherwise specified in this statement, personal data will be deleted when it is no longer necessary for the purposes for which it was collected or otherwise processed.
