8.3 Use of payment service providers

- Apple Pay

If you choose the payment method "Apple Pay" from Apple Distribution International (Apple), Hollyhill Industrial Estate, Hollyhill, Cork, Ireland, the payment processing will be carried out using the "Apple Pay" functionality of your iOS, watchOS, or macOS device by charging a payment card stored in "Apple Pay". Apple Pay uses security features integrated into the hardware and software of your device to protect your transactions. For approving a payment, you will need to enter a code previously set by you and verify using the "Face ID" or "Touch ID" function of your device.

For the purpose of payment processing, your information provided during the ordering process along with information about your order will be encrypted and transferred to Apple. Apple then re-encrypts this data with a developer-specific key before transmitting it to the payment service provider of the payment card stored in Apple Pay for payment execution. Encryption ensures that only the website through which the purchase was made can access the payment data. After the payment is made, Apple sends your device account number and a transaction-specific, dynamic security code to the originating website for payment confirmation.

If personal data is processed during the described transmissions, the processing is carried out exclusively for the purpose of payment processing in accordance with Art. 6 para. 1 lit. b GDPR.

Apple retains anonymized transaction data including the approximate purchase amount, date, and time, and whether the transaction was successfully completed. Anonymization ensures that personal identification is completely excluded. Apple uses anonymized data to improve "Apple Pay" and other Apple products and services.

If you use Apple Pay on your iPhone or Apple Watch to complete a purchase made via Safari on your Mac, the Mac and the authorization device communicate with Apple servers via an encrypted channel. Apple does not process or store any of this information in a format that can identify you. You can disable the option to use Apple Pay on your Mac in the settings of your iPhone. Go to "Wallet & Apple Pay" and disable "Allow Payments on Mac".

The transaction is carried out exclusively between the user and the originating website by charging the payment method stored in Google Pay.

If personal data is processed during the described transmissions, the processing is carried out exclusively for the purpose of payment processing in accordance with Art. 6 para. 1 lit. b GDPR.

Google reserves the right to collect, store, and analyze specific transaction-related information for every transaction made via Google Pay. This includes the date, time, and amount of the transaction, merchant location and description, a description of the goods or services purchased provided by the merchant, photos you attached to the transaction, the name and email address of the seller and buyer or sender and recipient, the payment method used, your description for the reason for the transaction, and any associated offer.

The conversion tracking cookie is set when a user clicks on an ad served by Google. Cookies are small text files that are stored on your device.

If the user visits certain pages of this website and the cookie has not yet expired, Google and we can recognize that the user clicked on the ad and was redirected to this page. Each Google Ads customer receives a different cookie. Cookies cannot therefore be tracked through the websites of Google Ads customers. The information obtained using the conversion cookie is used to create conversion statistics for Google Ads customers who have opted for conversion tracking. Customers learn the total number of users who clicked on their ad and were redirected to a page with a conversion tracking tag. However, they do not receive any information that personally identifies users. As part of the use of Google Ads, personal data may also be transferred to the servers of Google LLC. in the USA.

12) Tools and Others

Cookie Consent Tool

This website uses a so-called "cookie consent tool" to obtain effective user consents for consent-based cookies and cookie-based applications. The "cookie consent tool" is displayed to users as an interactive user interface when they visit the page, where consent can be given by checking boxes for specific cookies and/or cookie-based applications. By using the tool, all consent-based cookies/services are loaded only if the respective user gives consent by checking boxes. This ensures that such cookies are only set on the respective user's device if consent is given.

The tool sets technically necessary cookies to store your cookie preferences. Generally, personal user data is not processed here.

If, in individual cases, personal data (such as the IP address) is processed for the purpose of storing, assigning or logging cookie settings, this is done in accordance with Art. 6 para. 1 lit. f GDPR based on our legitimate interest in legally compliant, user-specific and user-friendly consent management for cookies and thus in legally compliant design of our website.

Another legal basis for processing is Art. 6 para. 1 lit. c GDPR. As the responsible party, we are subject to the legal obligation to make the use of technically unnecessary cookies dependent on the respective user's consent.

If necessary, we have concluded a data processing agreement with the provider to ensure the protection of our site visitors' data and to prohibit unauthorized disclosure to third parties.

Further information about the operator and the settings options of the cookie consent tool can be found directly in the corresponding user interface on our website.

13) Rights of the Data Subject

13.1 The applicable data protection law grants you as the data subject with regard to the processing of your personal data comprehensive data protection rights (rights of access and intervention) vis-à-vis the data controller, about which we inform you below:

• Right of access under Art. 15 GDPR: In particular, you have a right of access to your personal data processed by us, the processing purposes, the categories of personal data processed, the recipients or categories of recipients to whom your data has been or will be disclosed, the planned storage period or the criteria for determining the storage period, the existence of a right to rectification, deletion, restriction of processing, objection to processing, a complaint to a supervisory authority, the origin of your data, if not collected by us from you, the existence of automated decision-making including profiling and, where applicable, meaningful information on the logic involved and the scope and intended effects of such processing concerning you, as well as your right to be informed of the guarantees pursuant to Art. 46 GDPR that exist in the event of transfer of your data to third countries;

• Right to rectification under Art. 16 GDPR: You have the right to immediate rectification of incorrect data concerning you and/or completion of your incomplete data stored by us;

• Right to erasure under Art. 17 GDPR: You have the right to request the erasure of your personal data if the requirements of Art. 17 para. 1 GDPR are met. However, this right does not exist in particular if the processing is necessary to exercise the right to freedom of expression and information, to fulfill a legal obligation, for reasons of public interest or to assert, exercise or defend legal claims;

• Right to restriction of processing under Art. 18 GDPR: You have the right to request the restriction of the processing of your personal data as long as the accuracy of your data contested is verified, if you refuse to have your data erased due to inadmissible data processing and instead request the restriction of the processing of your data, if you need your data to assert, exercise or defend legal claims, after we no longer need this data after the purpose has been achieved or if you have objected for reasons of your particular situation, as long as it is not yet certain whether our legitimate reasons prevail;

• Right to be informed under Art. 19 GDPR: If you have asserted the right to rectification, erasure or restriction of processing vis-à-vis the data controller, the data controller is obliged to communicate this rectification or erasure of data or restriction of processing to all recipients to whom your personal data has been disclosed, unless this proves impossible or involves disproportionate effort. You have the right to be informed of these recipients.

• Right to data portability under Art. 20 GDPR: You have the right to receive your personal data provided to us in a structured, commonly used and machine-readable format or to request its transmission to another controller, insofar as this is technically feasible;

• Right to withdraw consent granted under Art. 7 para. 3 GDPR: You have the right to withdraw consent once granted for the processing of data at any time with effect for the future. In the event of withdrawal, we will delete the data concerned without delay, provided that further processing cannot be based on a legal basis for processing without consent. The withdrawal of consent does not affect the lawfulness of the processing carried out on the basis of the consent until withdrawal;

• Right to lodge a complaint under Art. 77 GDPR: If you believe that the processing of your personal data violates the GDPR, you have the right to lodge a complaint with a supervisory authority, in particular in the member state of your habitual residence, place of work or place of the alleged infringement, without prejudice to any other administrative or judicial remedy.

13.2 RIGHT TO OBJECT

IF, WITHIN THE FRAMEWORK OF A CONSIDERATION OF INTERESTS, WE PROCESS YOUR PERSONAL DATA ON THE BASIS OF OUR PREDOMINANT LEGITIMATE INTEREST, YOU HAVE THE RIGHT AT ANY TIME TO OBJECT TO THIS PROCESSING WITH EFFECT FOR THE FUTURE ON THE GROUNDS ARISING FROM YOUR PARTICULAR SITUATION.

IF YOU EXERCISE YOUR RIGHT TO OBJECT, WE WILL STOP PROCESSING THE DATA CONCERNED. HOWEVER, WE RESERVE THE RIGHT TO FURTHER PROCESSING IF WE CAN PROVE COMPELLING LEGITIMATE GROUNDS FOR THE PROCESSING WHICH OVERRIDE YOUR INTERESTS, FUNDAMENTAL RIGHTS AND FREEDOMS, OR IF THE PROCESSING IS FOR THE PURPOSE OF ASSERTING, EXERCISING OR DEFENDING LEGAL CLAIMS.

IF WE PROCESS YOUR PERSONAL DATA FOR DIRECT MARKETING PURPOSES, YOU HAVE THE RIGHT TO OBJECT AT ANY TIME TO THE PROCESSING OF PERSONAL DATA CONCERNING YOU FOR THE PURPOSES OF SUCH MARKETING. YOU CAN EXERCISE THE OBJECTION AS DESCRIBED ABOVE.

IF YOU EXERCISE YOUR RIGHT TO OBJECT, WE WILL STOP PROCESSING THE DATA CONCERNED FOR DIRECT ADVERTISING PURPOSES.

14) Duration of Storage of Personal Data

The duration of storage of personal data is determined based on the respective legal basis, the purpose of processing, and, if applicable, additionally based on the respective statutory retention period (e.g., commercial and tax retention periods).

When processing personal data based on explicit consent according to Art. 6 para. 1 lit. a GDPR, the affected data will be stored until you revoke your consent.

If there are statutory retention periods for data processed within the scope of contractual or quasi-contractual obligations based on Art. 6 para. 1 lit. b GDPR, this data will be routinely deleted after the retention periods expire, provided that it is no longer necessary for the fulfillment or initiation of a contract and/or there is no legitimate interest on our part to continue storing it.

When processing personal data based on Art. 6 para. 1 lit. f GDPR, this data will be stored until you exercise your right to object under Art. 21 para. 1 GDPR, unless we can demonstrate compelling legitimate grounds for the processing that override your interests, rights, and freedoms, or the processing serves the assertion, exercise, or defense of legal claims.

When processing personal data for the purpose of direct marketing based on Art. 6 para. 1 lit. f GDPR, this data will be stored until you exercise your right to object under Art. 21 para. 2 GDPR.

Unless otherwise specified in other information in this declaration regarding specific processing situations, stored personal data will be deleted when it is no longer necessary for the purposes for which it was collected or otherwise processed.
