A notification in text form to the contact details stated under point 1 (e.g. e-mail, fax, letter) is sufficient for this. We will then delete your stored personal data, unless we still need to store it to process orders or due to statutory retention obligations. The legal basis for the processing of this data is your consent in accordance with Art. 6 para. 1 sentence 1 a) GDPR.

To register for the newsletter, the data requested in the registration process is required. Registration for the newsletter is logged. After registering, you will receive a message to the email address provided asking you to confirm your registration ("double opt-in").

We store the registration data for as long as it is required for sending the newsletter. We store the logging of the registration and the dispatch address for as long as there is an interest in proving the consent originally given; as a rule, these are the limitation periods for civil law claims, i.e. a maximum of three years.

A notification in text form to the contact details stated under point 1 (e.g. e-mail, fax, letter) is sufficient for this. Of course, you will also find an unsubscribe link in every e-mail.
The legal basis for this is the legal authorisation pursuant to Art. 6 para. 1 sentence 1 f) GDPR in conjunction with Section 7 para. 3 UWG.
3.8 E-mail contact
If you contact us (e.g. via contact form or email), we will process your data to process the enquiry and in the event that follow-up questions arise.

We only process other personal data if you consent to this (Art. 6 para. 1 sentence 1 a) GDPR) or if we have a legitimate interest in processing your data (Art. 6 para. 1 sentence 1 f) GDPR). A legitimate interest lies, for example, in responding to your email.
