3. Your rights

You have the following rights with regard to the personal data concerning you:

3.1 General rights

You have the right of access, rectification, erasure, restriction of processing, objection to processing and data portability. Where processing is based on your consent, you have the right to withdraw this consent at any time with effect for the future.

3.2 Rights in the case of data processing based on legitimate interests

Pursuant to Art. 21 para. 1 GDPR, you have the right, on grounds relating to your particular situation, to object at any time to the processing of personal data concerning you which is based on Art. 6 para. 1 e GDPR (processing carried out in the public interest) or Art. 6 para. 1 f GDPR (processing for the purposes of legitimate interests). This also applies to profiling based on these provisions. If you object, we will no longer process your personal data unless we can demonstrate compelling legitimate grounds for the processing which override your interests, rights and freedoms, or unless the processing serves the establishment, exercise or defense of legal claims.

3.3 Rights in the case of direct marketing

If we process your personal data for the purpose of direct marketing, you have the right pursuant to Art. 21 para. 2 GDPR to object at any time to the processing of personal data concerning you for such marketing purposes. This also applies to profiling insofar as it is related to such direct marketing.

If you object to processing for direct marketing purposes, we will no longer process your personal data for these purposes.

3.4 Right to lodge a complaint with a supervisory authority

You also have the right to lodge a complaint with a competent data protection supervisory authority about our processing of your personal data.

4. Collection of personal data when visiting our website

If you use the website for purely informational purposes, meaning that you do not register or otherwise provide us with information, we only collect the personal data that your browser transmits to our server. If you wish to view our website, we collect the following data, which is technically necessary for us to display our website to you and to ensure stability and security:

• IP address
• Date and time of the request
• Time zone difference to Greenwich Mean Time (GMT)
• Content of the request, meaning the specific page accessed
• Access status / HTTP status code
• Amount of data transferred in each case
• Website from which the request originates
• Browser
• Operating system and its interface
• Language and version of the browser software

The legal basis for this data processing is Art. 6 para. 1 f GDPR.

5. Contact by email or contact form

When you contact us by email or via a contact form, the data you provide, such as your email address and, where applicable, your name and telephone number, will be stored by us in order to answer your questions. Where we request information in our contact form that is not necessary for contacting you, we have always marked this as optional. This information helps us to specify your request and to process your inquiry more effectively. Providing this information is expressly voluntary and based on your consent pursuant to Art. 6 para. 1 a GDPR. Where this information relates to communication channels, such as your email address or telephone number, you also consent to us contacting you via this communication channel if necessary in order to respond to your inquiry. You may of course withdraw this consent at any time with effect for the future.

We delete the data collected in this context once storage is no longer required, or restrict processing if statutory retention obligations apply.

6. Newsletter

6.1 General information

With your consent pursuant to Art. 6 para. 1 a GDPR, you can subscribe to our newsletter, through which we inform you about our current offers.

For registration for our newsletter, we use the so-called double opt-in procedure. This means that after you register, we send an email to the email address provided, asking you to confirm that you wish to receive the newsletter.

In addition, we store the IP addresses used and the times of registration and confirmation. The purpose of this procedure is to be able to verify your registration and, if necessary, to clarify possible misuse of your personal data.

The only mandatory information required to receive the newsletter is your email address. Providing further separately marked data is voluntary and is used to address you personally. After your confirmation, we store your email address for the purpose of sending the newsletter. The legal basis is Art. 6 para. 1 a GDPR.

You may withdraw your consent to receive the newsletter at any time and unsubscribe from the newsletter. You can withdraw your consent by clicking the link provided in every newsletter email or by contacting the Data Protection Officer named above.

6.2 Newsletter tracking

We would like to inform you that we analyze your user behavior when sending newsletters. For this analysis, the emails sent contain so-called web beacons or tracking pixels, which are stored on our website. For the analysis, we link the aforementioned data and the web beacons with your email address and an individual ID. OPTIONAL: Links contained in the newsletter also contain this ID.

The data is collected exclusively in pseudonymized form. The IDs are therefore not linked to your other personal data, and direct personal identification is excluded.

You may object to this tracking at any time by sending us an email to: Datenschutz@achilles.de. The information is stored for as long as you have subscribed to the newsletter. After unsubscribing, we store the data solely in statistical and anonymized form.

Such tracking is also not possible if you have disabled the display of images by default in your email program. In this case, the newsletter will not be displayed in full and you may not be able to use all functions. If you display the images manually, the tracking described above will take place.

7. Registration and portal use

You have the option to register on our websites on.achilles.de and www.easyOrdner.de and create a customer account. For registration, we collect and store the following data from you:

• Salutation
• First name
• Last name
• Email address username
• Password
• Address
• Date of birth

Providing the aforementioned data is mandatory. You may voluntarily provide all further information by using our portal.

After successful registration, you will receive personal password-protected access and can view and manage the data you have stored. Registration is voluntary but may be required in order to use our services.

If you use our portal, we store the data required for the performance of the contract, including, where applicable, payment method information, until you permanently delete your account. Furthermore, we store the voluntary data you provide for the duration of your use of the portal, unless you delete it beforehand. You can manage and change all information in the protected customer area. The legal basis is Art. 6 para. 1 a, b and f GDPR.

8. Online orders - shop

If you place an online order on our website, we collect various data required for the conclusion of the contract. The legal basis is the conclusion and performance of a contract pursuant to Art. 6 para. 1 b GDPR. The data is stored for the duration of the contract and in accordance with statutory obligations. For payment processing, we use various payment service providers, which are always clearly identified and which receive your entries directly. They are therefore recipients of your personal data collected in connection with the payment process. The legal basis for using payment service providers is contract processing pursuant to Art. 6 para. 1 b GDPR. Storage for payment purposes takes place for the duration of payment processing.

9. Participation in competitions

If you participate in competitions, we collect the data required to conduct the competition. This usually includes an individual competition entry, such as a comment or photo, as well as your name and contact details. We may pass your data on to our competition partners, for example in order to send you the prize. Data processing and data transfer may vary depending on the competition and are therefore specifically described in the respective terms and conditions of participation. Participation in the competition and the associated collection of data are of course voluntary. The legal basis for data processing is your consent pursuant to Art. 6 para. 1 a GDPR. Your data will be deleted after the competition has ended.

10. Applications

You may apply to our company electronically by email. We will of course use your information exclusively to process your application and will not pass it on to third parties. Please note that unencrypted emails are not transmitted in an access-protected manner.

If you have applied for a specific position and this position has already been filled, or if we consider you equally or even better suited for another position, we would like to forward your application within the company. Please inform us if you do not agree to such forwarding.

Your personal data will be deleted immediately after completion of the application process, or after a maximum of 6 months, unless you have expressly consented to longer storage of your data or a contract has been concluded. The legal basis is Art. 6 para. 1 a, b and f GDPR as well as Section 26 BDSG.

11. Use of social plugins

This website uses social plugins:

• Facebook operated by Facebook Inc., 1601 S. California Ave, Palo Alto, CA 94304, USA
• YouTube
• Vimeo
• Xing
• Pinterest

These plugins usually collect data from you by default and transmit it to the servers of the respective provider. In order to protect your privacy, we have taken technical measures to ensure that your data cannot be collected by the providers of the respective plugin without your consent. When you access a page on which the plugins are integrated, they are initially deactivated. Only when you click the respective icon are the plugins activated, and by doing so you give your consent for your data to be transmitted to the respective provider. The legal basis for the use of the plugins is Art. 6 para. 1 a and f GDPR.

Once activated, the plugins also collect personal data such as your IP address and send this data to the servers of the respective provider, where it is stored. Activated social plugins also set a cookie with a unique identifier when the relevant website is accessed. This enables the providers to create profiles of your usage behavior. This also occurs even if you are not a member of the respective provider’s social network. If you are a member of the provider’s social network and are logged into that social network while visiting this website, your data and information about your visit to this website may be linked to your profile on the social network. We have no influence on the exact scope of the data collected from you by the respective provider. Further information on the scope, nature and purpose of data processing, as well as your rights and setting options for protecting your privacy, can be found in the privacy notices of the respective social network provider. These are available at the following addresses:

  • YouTube: https://policies.google.com/privacy?hl=de&gl=de

12. Facebook Connect

We offer you the option to register and log in using your Facebook account. If you register via Facebook, Facebook will ask you for consent to share certain data from your Facebook account with us. This may include your first name, last name and email address in order to verify your identity and gender, as well as your general location, a link to your Facebook profile, your time zone, date of birth, profile picture, “likes” and friends list.

This data is collected by Facebook and transmitted to us in accordance with Facebook’s data policy. You can control the information we receive from Facebook via the privacy settings in your Facebook account.

This data is used to set up, provide and personalize your account. The legal basis is Art. 6 para. 1 a, b and f GDPR.

If you register with us via Facebook, your account will automatically be linked to your Facebook account, and information about your activities on our websites may be shared on Facebook and published in your timeline and news feed for friends.

13. Use of cookies

When you use our website, cookies are stored on your computer. Cookies are small text files stored on your hard drive and assigned to the browser you use, through which certain information is provided to the party placing the cookie. Cookies cannot run programs or transmit viruses to your computer. They are used to make our online offering more user-friendly and effective overall. We also use cookies to identify you on subsequent visits if you have an account with us. Otherwise, you would have to log in again for each visit.

This website uses the following types of cookies, the scope and functionality of which are explained below:

13.1 Transient cookies

These cookies are automatically deleted when you close your browser. They include, in particular, session cookies. These store a so-called session ID, which allows different requests from your browser to be assigned to the same session. This allows your computer to be recognized when you return to our website. Session cookies are deleted when you log out or close your browser.

13.2 Persistent cookies

These cookies are automatically deleted after a predefined period, which may vary depending on the cookie. You can delete cookies at any time in your browser’s security settings.

13.3 Flash cookies

The Flash cookies used are not recorded by your browser but by your Flash plugin. We also use HTML5 storage objects that are stored on your device. These objects store the required data independently of the browser you use and do not have an automatic expiration date. If you do not wish Flash cookies to be processed, you must install an appropriate add-on, such as the Adobe Flash Killer Cookie for Google Chrome. You can prevent the use of HTML5 storage objects by using private mode in your browser. We also recommend regularly deleting your cookies, browser history and website settings manually.

13.6 Details of the cookies we use

14. Website Analytics

For the purposes of analyzing and optimizing our websites, we use various services, which are described below. This enables us, for example, to analyze how many users visit our website, which information is most frequently requested, or how users find our offering. Among other things, we collect data about the website from which a data subject accessed one of our websites, known as the referrer, which subpages of the website were accessed, how often a subpage was viewed, and for how long. This helps us to make our services more user-friendly and to improve them. The data collected in this process is not used to personally identify individual users. Anonymous or, at most, pseudonymous data is collected. The legal basis for this is Art. 6 para. 1 f GDPR.

14.1 Google Analytics

This website uses Google Analytics, a web analytics service provided by Google Inc. (Google Ireland Limited, Gordon House, Barrow Street, Dublin 4, Ireland). The use includes the Universal Analytics operating mode. This makes it possible to assign data, sessions and interactions across multiple devices to a pseudonymous user ID and thereby analyze a user’s activities across devices.

Google Analytics uses cookies that enable an analysis of your use of the website. The information generated by the cookie about your use of this website is usually transferred to a Google server in the USA and stored there. If IP anonymization is activated on this website, however, your IP address will first be shortened by Google within member states of the European Union or in other contracting states of the Agreement on the European Economic Area. Only in exceptional cases will the full IP address be transferred to a Google server in the USA and shortened there. The IP address transmitted by your browser as part of Google Analytics will not be merged with other Google data.

On behalf of the operator of this website, Google will use this information to evaluate your use of the website, to compile reports on website activity and to provide the website operator with other services relating to website and internet usage. These purposes also constitute our legitimate interest in data processing. The legal basis for the use of Google Analytics is Art. 6 para. 1 f GDPR. The data sent by us and linked to cookies or user identifiers, such as user IDs, is automatically deleted after 14 months. Data whose retention period has been reached is automatically deleted once a month. Further information on terms of use and data protection can be found at https://www.google.com/analytics/terms/de.html and https://policies.google.com/?hl=de.

You can prevent the storage of cookies by selecting the appropriate settings in your browser software. However, please note that in this case you may not be able to use all functions of this website in full. You can also prevent Google from collecting the data generated by the cookie and related to your use of the website, including your IP address, and from processing this data by downloading and installing the browser plugin available at https://tools.google.com/dlpage/gaoptout?hl=de. Opt-out cookies prevent the future collection of your data when visiting this website. To prevent collection by Universal Analytics across different devices, you must perform the opt-out on all systems used. If you click here, the opt-out cookie will be set: Disable Google Analytics.

15. Advertising

We use cookies for marketing purposes in order to address our users with interest-based advertising. In addition, we use cookies to limit the likelihood of an advertisement being displayed repeatedly and to measure the effectiveness of our advertising measures. This information may also be shared with third parties, such as ad networks. The legal basis for this is Art. 6 para. 1 a and f GDPR. For the purposes pursued by the data processing, there is a legitimate interest in direct marketing. You have the right to object at any time to the processing of your data for the purpose of such advertising. For this purpose, we provide opt-out options for the respective services below. Alternatively, you can prevent cookies from being set in your browser settings.

16. Data Transfer

Your data will generally not be transferred to third parties, except in the cases mentioned above, unless we are legally obliged to do so, the transfer of data is necessary for the performance of the contractual relationship, or you have expressly consented in advance to the transfer of your data.

External service providers and partner companies, such as online payment providers or the shipping company commissioned with delivery, receive your data only to the extent necessary to process your order. In these cases, however, the scope of the transferred data is limited to the necessary minimum. If our external service providers come into contact with your personal data, we ensure within the framework of order processing pursuant to Art. 28 GDPR that they comply with the provisions of data protection law in the same way. Please also note the respective privacy notices of the providers. The respective service provider is responsible for the content of third-party services, although we review the services for compliance with legal requirements within reasonable limits.

We attach importance to processing your data within the EU / EEA. However, it may happen that we use service providers who process data outside the EU / EEA. In these cases, we ensure that an adequate level of data protection is established at the recipient before your personal data is transferred. This means that a level of data protection comparable to the standards within the EU is achieved through EU standard contractual clauses or an adequacy decision, such as the EU Privacy Shield.

17. Data Security

We have taken extensive technical and organizational security measures to protect your data against accidental or intentional manipulation, loss, destruction or access by unauthorized persons. Our security procedures are reviewed regularly and adapted to technological progress.
