Google Ads

For a targeted response to market behaviour and the placement of the best possible offers for interested users, we use Google Ads Conversion (Google Ads) functions of the company Google Ireland Limited ("Google"), Gordon House, Barrow Street, Dublin 4, Ireland. The advertising agency morefire GmbH (Hohenstaufenring, 29- 37, 50674 Cologne, Germany, [email protected]) has been commissioned with the use and control within the framework of a contract processing agreement.

The use of Google Ads enables us to advertise our offers with Google ads on external websites and to draw users' attention to our products. At the same time, we can use the data obtained to check how successful the individual Google Ads advertising measure is. The aim of using Google Ads is to show you advertising tailored to your interests and thus provide you with a better shopping experience.

When a user is redirected to our website via an advertisement placed by means of Google Ads, a cookie is stored on his or her terminal device. The validity period of this cookie is usually 30 days and should neither contain personal data nor serve the purpose of personal identification. With the help of this cookie, Google can recognise the Internet browser used the next time the user visits our website. As soon as the user visits our website and the cookie is still active, Google or we can track that the user was previously directed to our website via a specific Google advertisement. By analysing the interaction of users on our website, targeted advertising can be displayed to users on other pages even after they have visited our website. Thus, we can use the statistical evaluations of the individual advertising measures to check the effectiveness of our various advertising measures and make optimisations.

In the context of the use of Google Ads on our website, we do not receive any further data about the users; in particular, it is not possible for us to identify the individual user on the basis of the data transmitted.

Google Ads will only be activated after your consent. Visitors to our website will be shown a corresponding Consent banner for the setting when they visit our website for the first time.

After prior consent, the customer's email address is uploaded to Google in encrypted form. After the creation of corresponding target groups, the transmitted email addresses are matched with existing Google customers.

Facebook Pixel

As a further tracking tool, we have integrated the visitor action pixel ("Facebook Pixel") of Facebook Ireland Limited ("Facebook"), 4 Grand Canal Square, Grand Canal Harbour, Dublin 2, Ireland on our website. Facebook Pixel serves as an analytics tool that can be used to measure the effectiveness of our advertising. After users are directed to our website via a Facebook advertisement, we can track the users' further actions on our website. This enables us to record the effectiveness of our Facebook ads for statistical purposes and to evaluate them for the purpose of market research and to optimise future advertising measures.

The data collected is not visible to us, so we cannot draw any conclusions about the identity of the individual users. However, the data is stored and processed by Facebook. Therefore, Facebook can link the stored data with the data of a Facebook account and use the data for its own advertising purposes in accordance with the data protection guidelines (https://www.facebook.com/about/privacy/) use. We cannot influence this use of this data.

The use of Facebook Pixel is based on Art. 6 para. 1 lit. f DSGVO. As a website operator, we have a legitimate interest in constantly optimising our advertising measures on the social media channels we use and delivering them more efficiently.

If you are logged in to Facebook, you can deactivate usage-based advertising in the "Ad settings" area under https://www.facebook.com/ads/preferences/?entry_product=ad_settings_screen deactivate.

If you are not registered on Facebook, you can deactivate Facebook's usage-based advertising on the website of the European Interactive Digital Advertising Alliance: http://www.youronlinechoices.com/de/praferenzmanagement/.

As part of our use of Facebook Custom Audiences, we also use Facebook's Custom Audiences from your Customer List feature. If you register as a customer via our website, we offer you the opportunity to participate in personalised advertising measures and campaigns. With prior consent, we may upload email addresses or phone numbers of our customers to the Adverts Manager of our Facebook company account. According to Facebook, this data is encrypted before transmission to Facebook, so that the email address is transmitted as a hash value (combination of letters and numbers). Facebook can match this hash value with the corresponding hash values of email addresses of its Facebook users. Customers who are also Facebook users can thus be shown our personalised advertising measures and campaigns on the Facebook platform.

We would like to point out that we only use Customer Match with your prior consent within the meaning of Art. 6 Para. 1 lit. a DSGVO.

You have the option to revoke your consent at any time. To do so, please send us an email with your revocation to [email protected].

We are supported in the implementation by the advertising agency Adbaker GmbH (Kalscheurener Str. 19A, 50354 Hürth, [email protected]) within the framework of an order processing contract.

Further integration of third-party content and services

In order to pursue our legitimate interests pursuant to Art. 6 para. 1 lit. f. DSGVO, we use further content or service offers ("services") from third-party providers on our website. In this way, we can integrate and use third-party services. In this case, these third-party providers also perceive your IP address, as without such perception the content cannot be sent to the browser. In any case, we always endeavour to only use content whose respective providers only use the IP address to deliver the content.

We would like to point out that third-party providers may use so-called pixel tags for statistical or marketing purposes. These are invisible graphics, also known as "web beacons". Using these, it is possible to evaluate various information, such as in particular visitor traffic, on this website. It is possible that this pseudonymous information is stored in cookies on your end device and contains technical information about your browser and operating system, referring websites or time of visit as well as other information about the use of our online offer. In addition, it is possible that this information can also be linked to such information from other sources.

When using the services of third parties, the terms and conditions as well as the data protection information of the respective providers apply, which can be found on the respective website or transaction applications.

Payment service provider

The integrated third-party services also include the payment services PayPal, Klarna and Stripe.

The use of these payment services is based on our legitimate interest, which follows from Art. 6 para. 1 lit. f. DSGVO and on the basis of an order processing agreement pursuant to Art. 28 DSGVO. The legitimate interest here is to offer you various payment options and to ensure orderly payment processing in the context of the website.

 

Payment processing via PayPal and Stripe

For payment processing, you can use, among others, the services of the payment service provider PayPal (Europe) S.à. r.l. et Cie, S.C.A., 22-24 Boulevard Royal, L-2449 Luxembourg ("PayPal") or the payment service provider Stripe Inc. with headquarters at 185 Berry Street Suite 550, San Francisco, CA 94107 ("Stripe"). You will be redirected to the PayPal or Stripe website as part of your order. This makes it clear to you that you are leaving our website and accessing external content. The collection, use and storage of your data there is the sole responsibility of PayPal or Stripe as the site operator.

If you select PayPal or Stripe as a payment option, your data will be automatically transmitted to PayPal or Stripe. By selecting this payment option, you consent to the transmission of personal data required for payment processing.

The personal data transmitted is usually the first name, last name, address, e-mail address, IP address, telephone number, mobile phone number or other data necessary for the processing of payments. Also necessary for the processing of the purchase contract are such personal data that are related to the respective order. The transmission of the data is suitable to facilitate the payment processing and to prevent fraud.

It is possible that this personal data may also be transmitted by PayPal or Stripe to credit agencies. This transmission takes place for the purpose of checking identity and creditworthiness. It cannot be ruled out that PayPal may pass on the personal data to affiliated companies and service providers or subcontractors, insofar as this is necessary for the fulfilment of contractual obligations or the data is to be processed on behalf.

You have the option to revoke your consent to the handling of personal data at any time vis-à-vis PayPal or Stripe. We would like to point out that a revocation does not affect personal data that must be processed, used or transmitted in order to process payments in accordance with the contract.

Stripe is certified under the Privacy Shield agreement and thus offers an additional guarantee of compliance with European data protection law if data is processed in the USA(https://www.privacyshield.gov/participant?id=a2zt0000000TQOUAA4&status=Active).

Google Web Fonts

In particular, we also use external fonts from Google Ireland Limited ("Google"), Gordon House, Barrow Street, Dublin 4, Ireland A., https://www.google.com/fontsso-called Google Fonts. The integration of Google Fonts takes place via a server call at Google (usually in the USA). You can find the data protection declaration for this at https://www.google.com/policies/privacy/, (Opt-Out: https://www.google.com/settings/ads/).

The integration of the web fonts takes place via an interface ("API") to the Google services. It is possible that Google collects information, such as personal data in particular, through the integration of the web fonts and processes this information. It cannot be ruled out that Google also transmits the information to a server in a third country. We ourselves do not collect any data in the context of providing the Google Fonts.

Our legitimate interest in using this service lies in the possibility of a uniform display of fonts. In this way, the design effort can be kept lower than if a reaction to font standards of different operating systems or browsers would have to take place with own graphically adapted web pages.

Google also has a legitimate interest in the collected (personal) data, as this enables it to improve its own services.

Google Maps

We use maps from the "Google Maps" service of the company Google Ireland Limited ("Google"), Gordon House, Barrow Street, Dublin 4, Ireland on our website.

From the Privacy Shield certification of Google (https://www.privacyshield.gov/participant?id=a2zt0000000GnywAAC&status=Active) indicates that Google is committed to complying with the EU-US Privacy Shield Framework and the Swiss-US Privacy Shield Framework on the collection, use and retention of personal data from the member states of the EU and Switzerland, respectively. Google, including Google LLC and its wholly owned subsidiaries in the US, has declared by certification that it complies with the Privacy Shield Principles. Further information can be found at https://www.google.de/policies/privacy/frameworks/.

  • Log data (in particular the IP address)
  • Site-related information
  • and similar technologies
  • Unique application numbers

If you are logged into your Google account when you use our site, there is a possibility that Google may add the processed information to your account - depending on your account settings - and treat it as personal data, see esp. https://www.google.de/policies/privacy/partners.

To prevent this data from being added directly, you can log out of your Google account or make the appropriate account settings in your Google account.

Google provides further information, in particular on your options to prevent the use of data, under the following links:

Our legitimate interest in the use of this service follows from Art. 6 para. 1 lit. f. DSGVO. This lies here in enabling the localisation of shops that offer our products.

MAILPOET

We integrate functions of the newsletter plug-in MailPoet 3 on our website. The provider is Wysija SARL, 6 rue Dieudé, 13006, Marseille, France. Mail Poet is thus subject to the European Data Protection Regulation.

MailPoet allows you to register to automatically receive our blog articles by email on our website. Your data will be stored in our website's database and will be deleted immediately once you unsubscribe from receiving blog posts. Your data will not be passed on to third parties. We also log any changes to your data stored with the shipping service provider. This data is used exclusively for sending the requested information.

According to its own information, this provider only collects email addresses, names, IP addresses, open, click and opt-in rates so that the newsletter dispatch can be improved.

For more information about MailPoet, please see MailPoet's privacy policy at. https://www.mailpoet.com/terms-and-conditions/.

We offer this service on the basis of our legitimate interests pursuant to Art. 6 Para. 1 lit. f. DSGVO and the order processing contract pursuant to Art. 28 DSGVO. This lies in providing you with the opportunity to receive blog articles by email.

Newsletter dispatch 

On our website, we also offer you the opportunity to register to receive a newsletter. In this newsletter, we will regularly inform you about numerous offers and new products from specific jewellery lines that interest you.

The newsletter will only be sent to you after you have given your consent. In the following, we would like to inform you about the registration, sending and unsubscription procedure as well as the static evaluation. Finally, we will also inform you about your rights of objection.

If you would like to receive our newsletter, we require an e-mail address from you to which the newsletter should be sent. After you have registered for the newsletter, you will regularly receive an e-mail with a confirmation link for the newsletter (double-opt-in procedure) before it is sent for the first time. If you are the legal owner of the e-mail address provided, you can confirm your wish to receive a newsletter by clicking on the link. By clicking on the link, you declare that you agree to receive the newsletter. You will then receive the newsletter from us.

If you enter your name in the newsletter registration process, we will use it to address you personally in the newsletter. The specification of the name is optional.

The registrations for the newsletter are logged in order to be able to prove the registration process in accordance with the legal requirements. This includes the storage of the registration and confirmation time as well as the IP address.

The dispatch of the newsletter and the associated performance measurement is based on your consent in accordance with Art. 6 Para. 1 lit. a, Art. 7 DSGVO in conjunction with § 7 Para. 2 No. 3 UWG or on the basis of the legal permission in accordance with § 7 Para. 3 UWG.

The basis for logging the registration process is the pursuit of our legitimate interests pursuant to Art. 6 para. 1 lit. f. DSGVO. Our interest is based on the possibility of offering you a user-friendly and secure newsletter system that serves both our business interests and the possibility of proving your consent, as well as meeting your expectations.

You can revoke the consent you have given us to store the data, the e-mail address and the use of this data to send the newsletter at any time. Simply unsubscribe via the "Unsubscribe" link, which you will find in the footer of every newsletter sent. In this case you will not receive any further messages from us. We may store unsubscribed email addresses for up to three years based on our legitimate interests before deleting them, in particular to be able to prove consent previously given.

The processing of this data is limited solely to the purpose of a possible defence against claims. An individual deletion request is possible at any time, provided that you confirm at the same time that consent had previously existed.

E-mail advertising without subscribing to the newsletter and your right to object

If we receive your e-mail address in connection with the sale of a product or service and you have not objected to this, we reserve the right, on the basis of Section 7 (3) of the German Unfair Competition Act (UWG), to regularly send you offers by e-mail for similar products to those already purchased from our range. This serves to protect our legitimate interests in addressing our customers in an advertising manner, which outweigh our interests in the context of a balancing of interests.

You can object to this use of your e-mail address at any time by sending a message to the contact option described below or via a link provided for this purpose in the advertising e-mail, without incurring any costs other than the transmission costs according to the basic rates.
