Privacy policy
This English text is a translation of the German original and has not yet been legally reviewed. Until that review is complete, the German version is the binding text.
We attach great importance to data protection. We collect and process your personal data in compliance with applicable data protection law, in particular the EU General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR). We collect and process your personal data in order to offer you our website and our services. In accordance with Art. 13 GDPR, this notice describes which data we use, in what way, for what purpose and to what extent, and which choices and rights you have in connection with the use of your personal data.

2. Data collection on our website
Server log files
When you visit our website, your browser automatically transmits information to the server of our website. This information is stored only briefly in a log file and is deleted automatically.
This includes: your IP address, date and time of the request, name and URL of the file you requested, the website from which the request came (referrer URL), information about the browser and operating system you use, and the name of your access provider.
These data are used to ensure a smooth connection and comfortable use of our website and to evaluate system security and stability.
Contact form / email
Our site has a contact form so that customers can reach us easily. You can also write to us by email. If you use the contact form, you must provide your name and a valid email address.
Customer and contract data
For the purpose of initiating business, concluding a contract and performing a contract, we use the personal data required for that purpose in accordance with Art. 6 (1) (b) GDPR.
Data are passed to third parties only where this is necessary for performance of the contract, for example where a company has been engaged for production or transport services or a credit institution for payment processing.
Cookies
Our website uses cookies. Cookies are small text files stored on your device. They help us make navigation easier and display the website correctly.
We use so-called session cookies. These cookies are deleted automatically after your visit. We also use cookies stored on your device so that, for example, the site is easier to use on a later visit.
Web analytics (Matomo)
We use Matomo (self-hosted at analytics.horsequip.com) for anonymised analysis of how our website is used. This includes pages viewed, time spent, referrer, device type and browser. IP addresses are shortened (anonymisation). The analysis is used to improve our service.
The legal basis is our legitimate interest in analysing and improving our service under Art. 6 (1) (f) GDPR. Matomo cookies (for example _pk_id, _pk_ses) may be set. You can delete cookies or restrict tracking in your browser.
3. Social media
We have created a business profile on Instagram (operated by Meta Platforms Ireland Limited, 4 Grand Canal Square, Dublin 2, Ireland) and, together with Facebook, are joint controllers of this profile within the meaning of Art. 26 GDPR.
4. Disclosure of data
Your personal data are generally not transmitted to third parties. Data may exceptionally be transmitted for the following reasons:
• where you have given express consent under Art. 6 (1) sentence 1 (a) GDPR
• where disclosure is necessary under Art. 6 (1) sentence 1 (f) GDPR
• where we are legally obliged to disclose the data under Art. 6 (1) sentence 1 (c) GDPR
5. Rights of data subjects
Right of access, Art. 15 GDPR
You have the right to obtain confirmation from us as to whether we process personal data concerning you. If we do, you can request access to those personal data and to further information.
Right to rectification, Art. 16 GDPR
You can request that inaccurate personal data we store about you be rectified without undue delay, or that incomplete data be completed.
Right to erasure, Art. 17 GDPR
You can request erasure of the data we store about you where the personal data are no longer necessary for the purposes for which they were collected.
Right to object, Art. 21 GDPR
You have the right under Art. 21 GDPR to object to the processing of your personal data where that processing is based on our legitimate interest.
6. Data security
For security reasons and to protect the transmission of confidential content, this site uses SSL or TLS encryption. You can recognise this because the browser address line changes from "http://" to "https://".
We have also taken technical and organisational measures to protect your data against accidental or intentional manipulation, partial or complete loss, destruction, or unauthorised access by third parties.
7. Currency and changes
This privacy notice is currently valid and is dated 6 March 2025. We reserve the right to change it at any time so that it continues to meet current legal requirements.
