2. Hosting by Shopify
Our shop is hosted on the platform of Shopify Inc., 151 O’Connor Street, Ground Floor, Ottawa, Ontario K2P 2L8, Canada (“Shopify”). Your data is stored on Shopify’s servers.

3. Access Data and Hosting
You can visit our websites without providing any personal information. Each time a webpage is accessed, the web server automatically stores a so-called server log file, which contains, for example, the name of the requested file, your IP address, date and time of access, amount of data transferred, and the requesting provider (access data) and documents the access.
This access data is evaluated exclusively for the purpose of ensuring the smooth operation of the site and improving our offer. This serves, according to Art. 6 para. 1 sentence 1 lit. f GDPR, to safeguard our overriding legitimate interests in the correct presentation of our offer within the framework of a balancing of interests.
4. Data Collection and Use for Contract Processing
We collect personal data when you voluntarily provide it to us in the context of your order or when contacting us (e.g., via contact form or email). Mandatory fields are marked as such because we need the data in these cases to process the contract or handle your inquiry (Art. 6 para. 1 lit. b GDPR).
We store and use the data you provide (name, address, email, phone number, payment information) for contract processing and handling your inquiries. After the contract has been fully processed, your data will be restricted for further use and deleted after the expiration of tax and commercial retention periods, unless you have expressly consented to further use of your data.
