Data processing on this website is carried out by the website operator. You can find their contact details in the section "Information about the controller" in this privacy policy.

How do we collect your data?

Some of your data is collected when you provide it to us. This may, for example, be data that you enter in a contact form. Other data is collected automatically or with your consent when you visit the website by our IT systems. This is primarily technical data (e.g. internet browser, operating system or time the page was accessed). This data is collected automatically as soon as you access this website.

What do we use your data for?

Some of the data is collected to ensure that the website is provided without errors. Other data may be used to analyze your user behavior.

What rights do you have regarding your data?

You have the right to obtain, free of charge and at any time, information about the origin, recipients and purpose of your stored personal data. You also have the right to request that this data be corrected or deleted. If you have given consent to data processing, you may withdraw this consent at any time with effect for the future. You also have the right, under certain circumstances, to request that the processing of your personal data be restricted. Furthermore, you have the right to lodge a complaint with the competent supervisory authority. You can contact us at any time regarding this and any other questions about data protection.

Analytics tools and tools from third-party providers

When you visit this website, your browsing behavior may be statistically analyzed. This is done primarily using so-called analytics programs. You can find detailed information about these analytics programs in the following privacy policy.

  1. HOSTING

Shopify

We host our website with Shopify International Limited, Victoria Buildings, 1-2 Haddington Road, Dublin 4, D04 XN32, Ireland (hereinafter: "Shopify").

Shopify is a tool for creating and hosting websites. When you visit our website, Shopify collects your IP address as well as information about the device and browser you are using. Shopify also analyzes visitor numbers, visitor sources and customer behavior, and creates user statistics. If you make a purchase on our website, Shopify also collects your name, email address, delivery and billing addresses, payment details and other data related to the purchase (e.g. telephone number, amount of sales made, etc.). For analytics purposes, Shopify stores cookies in your browser.

For details, please refer to Shopify's privacy policy: https://www.shopify.de/legal/datenschutz. Shopify is used on the basis of Art. 6(1)(f) GDPR. We have a legitimate interest in ensuring that our website is presented as reliably as possible. If consent has been requested, processing is carried out exclusively on the basis of Art. 6(1)(a) GDPR; consent may be withdrawn at any time.

Data processing agreement

We have entered into a data processing agreement (DPA) with the provider named above. This is a contract required under data protection law that ensures the provider processes the personal data of our website visitors only in accordance with our instructions and in compliance with the GDPR.

  1. GENERAL INFORMATION AND MANDATORY INFORMATION

Data protection

The operators of these pages take the protection of your personal data very seriously. We treat your personal data confidentially and in accordance with the statutory data protection regulations and this privacy policy.

When you use this website, various items of personal data are collected. Personal data is data that can be used to identify you personally. This privacy policy explains what data we collect and what we use it for. It also explains how and for what purpose this is done.

Please note that data transmission over the internet (e.g. when communicating by email) may be subject to security vulnerabilities. It is not possible to completely protect data from access by third parties.

Information about the controller

The controller responsible for data processing on this website is:

myebikes.com GmbH

Lindenstraße 50

33378 Rheda-Wiedenbrück

 

Phone: 05242-4108-462

Email: support@myebikes.com

 

The controller is the natural or legal person who, alone or jointly with others, determines the purposes and means of processing personal data (e.g. names, email addresses, etc.).

Storage period

Unless a more specific storage period has been stated in this privacy policy, your personal data will remain with us until the purpose for processing the data no longer applies. If you make a legitimate request for erasure or withdraw your consent to data processing, your data will be deleted unless we have other legally permissible grounds for storing your personal data (e.g. retention periods under tax or commercial law); in the latter case, the data will be deleted once those grounds no longer apply.

Information about data transfers to the USA and other third countries

Among other things, we use tools from companies based in the USA or other third countries that are not considered secure under data protection law. If these tools are active, your personal data may be transferred to and processed in these third countries. Please note that these countries cannot guarantee a level of data protection comparable to that of the EU. For example, US companies are required to disclose personal data to security authorities without you, as the data subject, being able to take legal action against this. It therefore cannot be ruled out that US authorities (e.g. intelligence agencies) may process, analyze and permanently store your data held on US servers for surveillance purposes. We have no influence over these processing activities.

Withdrawal of your consent to data processing

Many data processing operations are only possible with your express consent. You may withdraw any consent you have already given at any time. The lawfulness of data processing carried out before the withdrawal remains unaffected by the withdrawal.

Right to object to data collection in specific cases and to direct marketing

(Art. 21 GDPR) IF DATA PROCESSING IS CARRIED OUT ON THE BASIS OF ART. 6(1)(E) OR (F) GDPR, YOU HAVE THE RIGHT AT ANY TIME TO OBJECT TO THE PROCESSING OF YOUR PERSONAL DATA FOR REASONS ARISING FROM YOUR PARTICULAR SITUATION; THIS ALSO APPLIES TO PROFILING BASED ON THESE PROVISIONS. PLEASE REFER TO THIS PRIVACY POLICY FOR THE LEGAL BASIS ON WHICH ANY PROCESSING IS BASED. IF YOU OBJECT, WE WILL NO LONGER PROCESS YOUR PERSONAL DATA CONCERNED UNLESS WE CAN DEMONSTRATE COMPELLING LEGITIMATE GROUNDS FOR THE PROCESSING THAT OVERRIDE YOUR INTERESTS, RIGHTS AND FREEDOMS, OR THE PROCESSING SERVES THE ESTABLISHMENT, EXERCISE OR DEFENSE OF LEGAL CLAIMS (OBJECTION UNDER ART. 21(1) GDPR).

IF YOUR PERSONAL DATA IS PROCESSED FOR DIRECT MARKETING PURPOSES, YOU HAVE THE RIGHT TO OBJECT AT ANY TIME TO THE PROCESSING OF YOUR PERSONAL DATA FOR SUCH MARKETING; THIS ALSO APPLIES TO PROFILING TO THE EXTENT THAT IT IS RELATED TO SUCH DIRECT MARKETING. IF YOU OBJECT, YOUR PERSONAL DATA WILL NO LONGER BE USED FOR DIRECT MARKETING PURPOSES (OBJECTION UNDER ART. 21(2) GDPR).

Right to lodge a complaint with the competent supervisory authority

In the event of violations of the GDPR, data subjects have the right to lodge a complaint with a supervisory authority, particularly in the Member State of their habitual residence, place of work or the place of the alleged infringement. The right to lodge a complaint is without prejudice to other administrative or judicial remedies.

Right to data portability

You have the right to have data that we process automatically on the basis of your consent or in performance of a contract handed over to you or to a third party in a commonly used, machine-readable format. If you request the direct transfer of the data to another controller, this will only be done insofar as it is technically feasible.

SSL or TLS encryption

For security reasons and to protect the transmission of confidential content, such as orders or inquiries that you send to us as the website operator, this site uses SSL or TLS encryption. You can recognize an encrypted connection by the browser address bar changing from "http://" to "https://" and by the lock icon in your browser bar.

When SSL or TLS encryption is enabled, the data you transmit to us cannot be read by third parties.

Encrypted payments on this website

If, after concluding a paid contract, you are required to provide us with your payment details (e.g. account number for direct debit), these details are required for payment processing.

Payments using commonly used payment methods (Visa/MasterCard, direct debit) are processed exclusively via an encrypted SSL or TLS connection. You can recognize an encrypted connection by the browser address bar changing from "http://" to "https://" and by the lock icon in your browser bar.

With encrypted communication, your payment details that you transmit to us cannot be read by third parties.

Access, erasure and rectification

Within the framework of applicable statutory provisions, you have the right at any time to obtain, free of charge, information about your stored personal data, its origin and recipients, and the purpose of data processing and, where applicable, the right to have this data corrected or deleted. You can contact us at any time regarding this and any other questions about personal data.

Right to restriction of processing

You have the right to request the restriction of the processing of your personal data. You can contact us at any time to do so. The right to restriction of processing applies in the following cases:

  • If you dispute the accuracy of your personal data stored by us, we will generally need time to verify this. For the duration of the verification, you have the right to request the restriction of the processing of your personal data.
  • If the processing of your personal data was/is unlawful, you may request the restriction of data processing instead of erasure.
  • If we no longer need your personal data, but you need it to establish, exercise or defend legal claims, you have the right to request the restriction of the processing of your personal data instead of erasure.
  • If you have lodged an objection under Art. 21(1) GDPR, a balance must be struck between your interests and ours. As long as it has not yet been determined whose interests prevail, you have the right to request the restriction of the processing of your personal data.

If you have restricted the processing of your personal data, such data may—apart from being stored—only be processed with your consent or for the establishment, exercise or defense of legal claims, or to protect the rights of another natural or legal person, or for reasons of important public interest of the European Union or a Member State.

Objection to promotional emails

We hereby object to the use of contact details published as part of the legal notice requirements for sending unsolicited advertising and information materials. The operators of these pages expressly reserve the right to take legal action in the event of unsolicited advertising information being sent, for example by spam emails.

Our websites use so-called "cookies." Cookies are small text files and do not cause any damage to your device. They are either stored on your device temporarily for the duration of a session (session cookies) or permanently (permanent cookies). Session cookies are automatically deleted at the end of your visit. Permanent cookies remain stored on your device until you delete them yourself or your web browser automatically deletes them.

In some cases, cookies from third-party companies may also be stored on your device when you visit our site (third-party cookies). These enable us or you to use certain services offered by the third-party company (e.g. cookies for processing payment services).

Cookies that are required to carry out the electronic communication process (necessary cookies), to provide certain functions you have requested (functional cookies, e.g. for the shopping cart function), or to optimize the website (e.g. cookies for measuring website traffic) are stored on the basis of Art. 6(1)(f) GDPR, unless another legal basis is specified. The website operator has a legitimate interest in storing cookies to ensure the technically error-free and optimized provision of its services.

Mandatory statutory retention obligations remain unaffected.

Consent Manager is used to obtain the legally required consent for the use of certain technologies. The legal basis for this is the GDPR Directive.

Server log files

The provider of the pages 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
  • Hostname of the accessing computer
  • Time of the server request
  • IP address

This data is not combined with data from other sources.

This data is collected on the basis of Art. 6(1)(f) GDPR. The website operator has a legitimate interest in ensuring the technically error-free presentation and optimization of its website—for this purpose, server log files must be collected.

This data is processed on the basis of Art. 6(1)(b) GDPR if your enquiry relates to the performance of a contract or is necessary for taking steps prior to entering into a contract. In all other cases, processing is based on our legitimate interest in effectively handling enquiries addressed to us (Art. 6(1)(f) GDPR) or on your consent (Art. 6(1)(a) GDPR), if such consent was requested.

The data you enter in the contact form will remain with us until you ask us to delete it, withdraw your consent to its storage, or the purpose for storing the data no longer applies (e.g. once your enquiry has been fully processed). Mandatory statutory provisions—in particular retention periods—remain unaffected.

  1. ANALYTICS TOOLS AND ADVERTISING

Google Analytics

This website uses features of the web analytics service Google Analytics. The provider is Google Ireland Limited ("Google"), Gordon House, Barrow Street, Dublin 4, Ireland.

Google Analytics enables the website operator to analyse the behaviour of website visitors. The website operator receives various usage data, such as page views, time spent on the site, operating systems used and the user's origin. Google may combine this data into a profile assigned to the respective user or their device.

We can also use Google Analytics to record your mouse movements, scrolling and clicks, among other things. Google Analytics also uses various modelling approaches to supplement the data collected and employs machine learning technologies in its data analysis.

Google Analytics uses technologies that enable users to be recognised for the purpose of analysing user behaviour (e.g. cookies or device fingerprinting). The information collected by Google about your use of this website is generally transferred to and stored on a Google server in the USA.

This analytics tool is used on the basis of Art. 6(1)(f) GDPR. The website operator has a legitimate interest in analysing user behaviour in order to optimise both its website and its advertising. If the relevant consent has been requested (e.g. consent to the storage of cookies), processing is carried out exclusively on the basis of Art. 6(1)(a) GDPR; consent may be withdrawn at any time.

The transfer of data to the USA is based on the European Commission's Standard Contractual Clauses. Details can be found here: https://privacy.google.com/businesses/controllerterms/mccs/.

Data stored by Google at the user and event level that is linked to cookies, user identifiers (e.g. User ID) or advertising IDs (e.g. DoubleClick cookies, Android Advertising ID) is anonymised or deleted after 14 months. Details can be found at the following link: https://support.google.com/analytics/answer/7667196?hl=de

Google Ads

The website operator uses Google Ads. Google Ads is an online advertising programme provided by Google Ireland Limited ("Google"), Gordon House, Barrow Street, Dublin 4, Ireland.

Google Ads enables us to display advertisements in the Google search engine or on third-party websites when users enter certain search terms on Google (keyword targeting). Targeted advertisements can also be displayed based on user data held by Google (e.g. location data and interests) (audience targeting). As website operators, we can evaluate this data quantitatively, for example by analysing which search terms triggered our advertisements and how many advertisements led to corresponding clicks.

Google Ads is used on the basis of Art. 6(1)(f) GDPR. The website operator has a legitimate interest in marketing its products and services as effectively as possible.

The transfer of data to the USA is based on the European Commission's Standard Contractual Clauses. Details can be found here:

This constitutes a legitimate interest within the meaning of Art. 6(1)(f) GDPR. If the relevant consent has been requested, processing is carried out exclusively on the basis of Art. 6(1)(a) GDPR; consent may be withdrawn at any time.

  1. ONLINE MARKETING AND AFFILIATE PROGRAMMES

Affiliate programmes on this website

The website operator participates in affiliate partner programmes. If you click on an advertisement on our website that is part of a partner programme and subsequently complete a transaction (e.g. a purchase), we receive a commission from our affiliate partners. For this purpose, our affiliate partners must be able to identify you and determine that you accessed the product in question via the advertisement placed on our website and completed the predefined transaction. Our affiliate partners use cookies or comparable recognition technologies (e.g. device fingerprinting) for this purpose.

Data is stored and analysed on the basis of Art. 6(1)(f) GDPR. The website operator has a legitimate interest in correctly calculating its affiliate commission. If the relevant consent has been requested (e.g. consent to the storage of cookies), processing is carried out exclusively on the basis of Art. 6(1)(a) GDPR; consent may be withdrawn at any time.

We participate in the following affiliate programmes:

Facebook fan page

We operate a Facebook fan page at the URL https://www.facebook.com/profile.php?id=61554697893840, through which you can communicate with us. Processing is carried out on the legal basis of Art. 26 GDPR (joint controllers).

The Facebook Inc. privacy policy applies to all processing at the URL https://www.facebook.com/profile.php?id=61554697893840 and can be found here: https://de-de.facebook.com/about/privacy

Exception: If you provide us with personal data such as your name, email address or similar information through the communication channels provided by Facebook, for example so that we can respond to an enquiry, we will also process that enquiry in our systems. This data is stored for 10 years.

In addition to Facebook, recipients of your data may include service providers we use to ensure that your enquiries are answered quickly and efficiently.

Facebook Pixel / Facebook Custom Audience

Facebook Custom Audience is used on some pages of our website. Facebook is operated by Facebook Inc., 1601 S. California Ave, Palo Alto, CA 94304, USA.

Facebook Custom Audience enables targeted advertising on Facebook. The Facebook Pixel also allows us to determine which visits to our website result from clicks on our Facebook ads. Facebook Custom Audience and the Facebook Pixel therefore serve our legitimate interest in analysing and optimising our online advertising and operating it economically.

When Facebook Custom Audience is used via the pixel method, an invisible Facebook pixel is integrated into our website. Among other things, it transmits the Facebook user ID of the user (if logged in to Facebook) and data about use of our website to Facebook. This enables Facebook to track the online behaviour of users of our website. Facebook may display targeted advertisements to users registered with it (for example, for a product not purchased after an abandoned order).

You can object to the collection of your data by the Facebook Pixel at any time. For more information, see section 12 of this privacy policy, "Cookies and web analytics".

You can also configure which types of advertisements are shown to you on Facebook in your Facebook account.

Further information can be found in Facebook's privacy policy:

https://www.facebook.com/policy.php

Information relevant to online marketing and affiliate programmes is transmitted to Meetsocial only to the extent necessary to carry out these tasks. We take particular care to ensure that sensitive data is treated confidentially.
