Right to Information
You have the right to obtain information about your stored personal data, their origin and recipients, and the purpose of data processing at any time.

Right to Rectification
You have the right to have your stored data corrected at any time. If you notice any discrepancies, you can also correct your data yourself in your customer account.

Right to Erasure / Blocking
You have the right to have your stored data deleted or blocked for further processing if we are obligated by law to retain your data (e.g., invoices) or for reasons of data processing restriction.

 

Right to Restriction of Processing
You have the right to restrict data processing:

 

Right to Object or Withdraw Consent to Processing
If you have given consent to the processing of your data, you can withdraw it at any time. Such withdrawal does not affect the lawfulness of the processing of your personal data prior to the withdrawal.
You also have the right to object to the processing of your personal data based on reasons arising from your particular situation, in accordance with § 6 No. 1, 3, 4, or 8 DSG-EKD. If you exercise such objection, please explain the reasons why we should not process your personal data as we have done. In the event of a justified objection, we will review the situation and either cease or adjust the data processing, or provide you with our compelling legitimate reasons for continuing the processing.

 

Right to Data Portability
If desired, we will provide your personal data that you have provided to us personally in a structured, commonly used, and machine-readable format, and/or transmit it to another controller (e.g., another webshop), to the extent technically feasible.

We appreciate your visit to this website. The protection of your personal data is of great importance to us. Below you will find information about the personal data that is collected during your visit to our website and when using our services, as well as how we use this data.

We comply with the applicable data protection regulations, in particular the provisions of the European General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR, see https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/General_Data_Protection_Regulation) in conjunction with the relevant data protection law of the Evangelical Church in Germany (DSG-EKD, see https://www.kirchenrecht-ekd.de/document/41335).

The rights of individuals affected by the processing of personal data can be found in Chapter 3 of the DSG-EKD (see https://www.kirchenrecht-ekd.de/document/41335#s47000048). They essentially correspond to the rights under the GDPR.

We would like to point out that data transmission over the Internet (e.g., communication via email) may have security vulnerabilities and cannot be fully protected against third-party access.

Server log files:

To protect our IT systems, the provider stores IP addresses (see https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/IP_address) for a period of 30 days. IP addresses are considered personal data. The operator of this website does not use these IP addresses in any way.

Cookies:

In order to make our website user-friendly and tailor it to your needs, as well as to enable and ensure the necessary technical functions, cookies are used on our website in some areas, possibly also by third parties.

"Cookies" are small text files that are stored locally on the hard drive of your device (computer, smartphone, tablet) and are kept available for later retrieval. After you finish your visit and close the internet browser you used, most cookies are automatically deleted (so-called session cookies). Other cookies may remain on your device for a longer period and enable your browser to be recognized during your next visit (persistent cookies).

You can determine the installation of cookies by changing the settings of your browser software as described under "Consent and Rejection of Cookies". However, in some cases, you may not be able to use all the functions of our website.

Consent and Rejection of Cookies
You can declare your consent or rejection of cookies through the settings of your web browser. You can configure your web browser to notify you when cookies are being set or to generally reject cookies. However, in this case, you may not be able to use all the functions of our website. You can find information about this option for the most commonly used browsers through the following links:

 

This site uses the Google Maps mapping service via an API. The provider is Google Ireland Limited, Gordon House, Barrow Street, Dublin 4, Ireland.

To use the functions of Google Maps, it is necessary to store your IP address. This information is usually transferred to a Google server in the United States and stored there. The provider of this site has no influence on this data transmission.

The use of Google Maps is in the interest of an appealing presentation of our online offers and an easy findability of the locations indicated by us on the website. This represents a legitimate interest within the meaning of Art. 6(1)(f) of the GDPR.

For more information on how user data is handled, please refer to Google's privacy policy: https://www.google.com/intl/en/policies/privacy/.

 

Our website uses Matomo (formerly Piwik), an open-source software for statistical analysis of visitor traffic that creates pseudonymous usage profiles. Matomo is used without cookies.

The use of the Matomo plugin is for the purpose of optimizing our website economically and tailoring it to the needs of our users. This represents a legitimate interest within the meaning of § 6(4) of the German Data Protection Act (DSG-EKD).

The information generated about your use of our website is stored on our server. The collected information is not combined with personal data about the bearer of the pseudonym and is not shared with third parties. It serves to improve the relevant content of our website. The IP address is only processed in anonymized form by Matomo.

If you do not want us to use pseudonymous analysis techniques for web tracking, please click the following link so that we can permanently consider your request.

Your visit to this website will be recorded. Click here to permanently prevent tracking.

Please note that in order to permanently comply with your request, we need to place a technically necessary cookie on your device. You should not delete this cookie; otherwise, you will have to block the tracking again during your next visit to our website.

 

On our website, YouTube videos are embedded, which are stored on YouTube but can be played directly on our website.

To protect your privacy, you need to activate the videos on our pages first. If you activate or play the videos, cookies from YouTube or DoubleClick may be stored and/or read on your device, and data may be transferred to YouTube or DoubleClick (USA, Google), such as your IP address and cookie ID, the specific address of the page you accessed on our site, system date and time of the access, and your browser's identifier. For the purposes and scope of data collection and processing by YouTube or DoubleClick, please refer to the information provided by Google: https://www.google.com/policies/privacy/.

If you do not want YouTube or DoubleClick to receive data about you through the use of our website, you must not activate the videos.

The data transfer takes place after the video is activated, regardless of whether you have a user account with YouTube or Google that you are logged into or whether you do not have a user account. If you are logged in, this data can be directly associated with your account. If you want to avoid this as much as possible, you should log out before activating the video.

 

This website uses web fonts provided by Google for consistent font display. The Google Fonts are installed locally, and no connection to Google servers is established.

For more information about Google Web Fonts, please visit https://developers.google.com/fonts/faq and consult Google's privacy policy: https://policies.google.com/privacy?hl=en.

 

Social media plugins (e.g., Facebook, Twitter, Instagram, Pinterest, XING, LinkedIn, Tumblr) are used on our website.

You can usually recognize the plugins by the respective social media logos. To ensure data protection on our website, we only use these plugins together with the so-called "Shariff" solution. This application prevents the integrated plugins on our website from transmitting data to the respective provider as soon as you enter the page.

Only when you activate the respective plugin by clicking on the associated button will a direct connection to the provider's server be established (consent). Once you activate the plugin, the respective provider will receive information that you have visited our site with your IP address.

If you are logged into your respective social media account (e.g., Facebook) at the same time, the respective provider can associate your visit to our pages with your user account.

Activating the plugin constitutes consent within the meaning of § 8 KDG. You can revoke this consent at any time with effect for the future.
