We thank you for your visit to our website https://www.kukuje.com/ and your interest in our company and our offers. Despite careful control of the contents, we do not assume any liability for external links to third-party contents, as we have not initiated the transfer of this information, did not select the addressee of the transmitted information and the transmitted information ourselves or have amended any such information ourselves. The protection of your personal data in connection with the collection, processing of use on the occasion of your visit to our Internet pages is an important concern for us. The collection, processing and use of your personal data takes place within the scope of the statutory provisions on which you may for instance obtain information on the website www.bfd.bund.de.
In the following, we explain which information we record on the occasion of your visit to our websites and how this information is used.

 

1. Collection and Storage of Personal Data as well as Nature and Purpose of their Use

 

a) When visiting the Website
Whenever a customer (or any other visitor) visits our website, the Internet browser used on your device (computer, laptop, tablet, smartphone, etc.) automatically sends information to the server of our website. This information is temporarily stored in a socalled log file. The following data is in this connection collected and stored, without any action on your part, until the time of automatic deletion:

• IP-address of the accessing computer as well as device-ID or individual device identifier and type of device,
• the name of the retrieved file and the transmitted data volume, as well as date and time of the retrieval,
• report on successful retrieval,
• accessing domain,
• description of the type of Internet browser used and of the operating system of your device as well as the name of your access provider, as the case may be,
• your browser history data as well as your default web log information

We do not collect any location data ourselves. However, we would like to point out that a rough location can always be determined from the IP address - however, no third-party provider is instructed by us to do this. Our justified interest in accordance with Art. 6 para. 1 cl. 1 lit. f GDPR is based on the
following purposes:

• ensuring the smooth establishment of a connection and comfortable use of the website,
• analysis of system security and system stability, and
• other administrative purposes.

In no event will we use the collected data for the purpose of drawing any conclusions as to your person. The above data will be deleted after you leave the website.

 

b) When using our Contact Form

 

Should you have questions of any kind, we offer you the possibility to contact us via a Contact Form provided on our website. In this connection, the specification of a valid email address and your name is at least required, so that we know, who sent the enquiry and are able to answer it. Further information may be provided on a voluntary basis. The data processing for the purpose of establishing contact with us takes place in accordance with Art. 6 para. 1 cl. 1 lit. a GDPR on the basis of your voluntarily granted consent.
The personal data collected by us for the use of the Contact Form will be automatically deleted after the inquiry you have sent us has been answered. For the protection of your inquiries by Internet form we use the service reCAPTCHA offered by Google Inc. The inquiry serves the differentiation whether the input takes place by humans or abusively by automated, mechanical processing. The query includes the transmission of the IP address and any other data required by Google for the service reCAPTCHA to Google. For this purpose your input will be transmitted to Google and used there. However, your IP address will be shortened by Google in advance within member states of the European Union or in other contracting states of the Agreement on the European Economic Area. Only in exceptional cases and with your consent pursuant to Art. 6 para. 1 cl. 1 lit. a GDPR the full IP address will be transmitted to a Google server in the USA and shortened there. On our behalf, Google will use this information to evaluate your use of this service. The IP address transmitted by your browser as part of reCAPTCHA is not merged with other data from Google. These data are subject to the differing data protection regulations of Google. For more information about Google's privacy policy, please visit: https://www.google.com/intl/de/policies/privacy/. You can find an opt-out option at the following link: https://adssettings.google.com/authenticated. The recipient of the collected data is Google. If your data is transferred to the USA, this is done on the basis of your consent in accordance with Art. 49 para. 1 cl. 1 lit. a GDPR. In
addition, Google is obligated to us by way of a standard contractual clause that a level of data protection equivalent to that of the EU is guaranteed in third countries outside the EU to which the collected data is exported.

 

c) Upon conclusion of a contractual relationship

 

When concluding a contractual relationship on our website e.g. purchase in our online shop we ask you to provide the following personal data:

• Data that identifies you personally such as name and e-mail address, address, billing and delivery address/ and telephone number,
• the information about your means of payment,
• other personal data which we are legally obliged or entitled to collect and process and which we need for your authentication, identification or to check the data we have collected.

The above-mentioned data is processed for the purpose of handling the contractual relationship and - if necessary - passed on to the transport company commissioned with the delivery. The processing of the data takes place on the basis of Art. 6 para. 1 cl. 1 lit. b GDPR. The storage period is limited to the purpose of the contract and, if applicable, legal and contractual storage obligations. The personal data collected by us for the order will be blocked for further use after complete processing of the contract. Your data will be stored until the expiry of the statutory warranty period and deleted thereafter, unless we are obliged to store the data for a longer period of time in accordance with Art. 6 para. 1 cl. 1 lit. c GDPR on the basis of tax and commercial law storage and documentation obligations (from HGB, StGB or AO) or you have consented to storage beyond this period in accordance with Art. 6 para. 1 cl. 1 lit. a GDPR

 

d) Use of payment provider

 

To process your order we also work together with the payment service providers listed below. Within the scope of payment processing, we will pass on your order data to the payment service provider selected by you - earmarked for the payment - if this is necessary for payment processing. The legal basis for the transfer of data is in each case Art. 6 para. 1 cl. 1 lit. b GDPR.

 

i) PayPal

 

If you choose to pay via “PayPal” (by credit card, direct debit or on account via PayPal), after confirmation of the conclusion of the contract, you will be transferred directly via an interface to the payment service provider PayPal (Europe) S.à.r.l. et Cie, S.C.A., 22-24 Boulevard Royal, L-2449 Luxembourg "PayPal"), where you can enter your payment details and select the payment method you wish to use with PayPal and then process the payment. Please note that PayPal's privacy policy applies to this. For information on the processing of your personal data by PayPal and your rights, please refer to the PayPal Privacy Policy (https://www.paypal.com/de/webapps/mpp/ua/privacy-full). As a precautionary measure, we would like to point out that PayPal reserves the right to carry out a credit check if PayPal is to make an advance payment due to its legitimate interest in determining your solvency (Art. 6 para. 1 sentence 1 lit. f GDPR). For this purpose PayPal may pass on your payment data to credit agencies. The result of the credit assessment with regard to the statistical probability of non-payment may contain probability values (so-called score values), which are calculated on the basis of scientifically recognized mathematical-statistical methods and in whose calculation address data, among other things, are included. According to PayPal, your interests worthy of protection are taken into account in accordance with the statutory provisions. For further information, especially regarding your rights, please refer to the PayPal privacy policy (https://www.paypal.com/de/webapps/mpp/ua/privacy-full).

 

ii) Sofortüberweisung

 

If you choose the payment method “Sofortüberweisung” you can enter your payment data directly after the confirmation of the conclusion of the contract, via an interface provided by the payment service provider Sofort GmbH, Theresienhöhe 12, 80339 Munich (“Sofort”), and process the payment by bank transfer immediately. We point out that the data protection regulations of Sofort apply to this. Information on the processing of your personal data by Sofort and on your rights can be found in their data protection regulations (https://www.klarna.com/sofort/datenschutz/).

 

2. Disclosure of personal data

 

Your data will not be transferred to third parties for purposes other than those listed below. We only pass on your data to third parties if:

• you have given your express consent to do so in accordance with (Art. 6 para. 1 cl. 1 lit. a GDPR),
• this is necessary for the processing of contractual relationships with you (Art. 6 para. 1 cl. 1 lit. b GDPR),
• there is a legal obligation to disclose (Art. 6 para. 1 cl. 1 lit. c GDPR)
• the disclosure is necessary for the assertion, exercise or defence of legal claims and there is no reason to assume that you have an overriding interest worthy of protection in not disclosing your data (Art. 6 para. 1 cl. 1 lit. f GDPR)

In these cases, however, the scope of the transmitted data is limited to the necessarym minimum. Our data protection regulations are in accordance with the applicable data protection regulations and the data is only processed in the Federal Republic of Germany.

 

3. Rights of data subjects

 

On request, we will be pleased to inform you whether and which personal data relating to your person are stored (Art. 15 GDPR), in particular about the purposes of processing, the category of personal data, the categories of recipients to whom your data have been or will be disclosed, the planned storage period, the existence of a right of rectification, deletion, restriction of processing or opposition, the existence of a right of appeal, the origin of your data if they have not been collected by us, and the existence of automated decision making including profiling. You also have the right to have any incorrectly collected personal data corrected or incompletely collected data completed (Art. 16 GDPR). Furthermore, you have the right to demand that we restrict the processing of your data, provided that the legal requirements for this are met (Art. 18 GDPR). You have the right to receive the personal data concerning you in a structured, common and machine-readable format or to request that it be transferred to another responsible party (Art. 20 GDPR).
In addition, you have the so-called “right to be forgotten”, i.e. you can demand that we delete your personal data, provided that the legal requirements are met (Art. 17 GDPR). Irrespective of this, your personal data will be automatically deleted by us if the purpose for which the data was collected ceases to apply or if the data processing is unlawful. According to Art. 7 para. 3 GDPR, you have the right to revoke your consent to us at any time. As a result, we may no longer continue the data processing based on this consent in the future. You also have the right to object to the processing of your personal data at any time, provided that a right of objection is provided for by law. In the event of an effective revocation, your personal data will also be automatically deleted by us (Art. 21 GDPR).

If you wish to exercise your right of revocation or objection, simply send an e-mail to info@kukuje.de. In the event of infringements of the data protection regulations, you have the opportunity to lodge a complaint with the responsible supervisory authority in accordance with Art. 77 GDPR. The competent supervisory authority is both the Independent Centre for Data Protection Schleswig-Holstein (https://www.datenschutzzentrum.de/) and any other supervisory authority.

 

4. Duration of data storage

 

The data collected will be stored by us for as long as is necessary to execute the contracts entered into with us or if you have not exercised your right to deletion or your right to transfer data to another company.

 

5. Cookies

 

We use cookies on our website. These are small text files that are automatically created by your browser and stored on your device when you visit our website. The cookie contains information that is related to the specific device used. This does not mean, however, that we immediately obtain knowledge of your identity. These cookies are set as so-called first-party cookies (“own cookies”) or third-party cookies ("third-party cookies"). First-party cookies are set by the website you are currently visiting and are not made available by browsers across domains. A third party cookie, on the other hand, is set by a third party, i.e. not by the actual website you are currently on. Furthermore, cookies are divided into technically necessary and technically unnecessary cookies. On our website, both technically necessary cookies and technically unnecessary cookies are set in accordance with the following paragraphs.

 

a) Technically necessary cookies

 

Technically necessary cookies are absolutely necessary for the operation of our website and lead, for example, to certain functions being made possible for you in the first place. These technically necessary cookies, which are only required and set for the individual necessary online session, are automatically deleted after leaving our website. The legal basis for the use of these technically necessary cookies is Art. 6 para. 1 cl. 1 lit. f GDPR.

 

b) Technically not necessary cookies

 

If you have given your consent, we use so-called technically not necessary cookies on our website. The technically not necessary cookies are mainly used to evaluate the use of the website as well as user behaviour, to compile reports on the activities of visitors to the website and to provide further services associated with the use of the website. The cookies we use, which are not technically necessary, are explained in our cookie banner with regard to their function, duration and possible third-party recipients of the data. If certain third party providers we use set cookies as part of the service provided for us, this will also be indicated separately in our privacy policy. The legal basis for the use of cookies that are not technically necessary is Art. 6 para. 1 cl. 1 lit. a GDPR, provided you have given your consent.
You can revoke your consent at any time. Furthermore, you have the possibility to configure the setting of cookies at any time. For example, you can set your browser to inform you in advance about the setting of cookies or to refuse cookies completely. Java applets and Java script are used in the provision of our Internet offer. If, for security reasons, you do not wish to use these auxiliary programs or active contents, you should deactivate the corresponding setting in your browser.

 

6. Online marketing/analysis measures

 

By statistical recording through online marketing measures, we want to design our website to meet the needs of you, our user, and continually adapt and optimize its use. The use of the online marketing and tracking measures we use is based on your consent in accordance with Art. 6 para. 1 cl. 1 lit. a GDPR. If your data is transferred to the USA, this is done on the basis of your consent in accordance with Art. 49 para. 1 cl. 1 lit. a GDPR. In addition, the service providers concerned have committed to us under a standard contractual clause that a level of data protection equivalent to that in the EU is guaranteed in third countries outside the EU to
which data is exported.

 

a) Google Analytics

 

If you have given your consent, this website uses Google Analytics, a web analysis service provided by Google Ireland Limited “Google”. The use includes the operating mode “Universal Analytics”; this makes it possible to assign data, sessions and interactions across multiple devices to a pseudonymous user ID and thus to analyse the activities of a user across devices. Google Analytics uses so-called “cookies”; text files which are stored on your computer and which enable an analysis of your use of the website. The information generated by the cookie about your use of this website is usually transferred to a Google server in the USA and stored there. However, in the event that IP anonymisation is activated on this website, your IP address will be shortened by Google within member states of the European Union
or in other contracting states of the Agreement on the European Economic Area. We would like to point out that Google Analytics has been extended to include IP anonymisation on this website in order to ensure anonymous recording of IP addresses (so-called IP masking). The IP address transmitted by your browser within the scope of Google Analytics is not merged with other Google data. Further information on terms of use and data protection can be found at (https://www.google.com/analytics/terms/de.html or https://policies.google.com/?hl=de). On behalf of the operator of this website, Google will use this information to evaluate your use of the website, to compile reports on website activities and to provide further services to the website operator in connection with website and internet use. The data sent by us and linked to cookies, user IDs (e.g. user ID) or advertising IDs are automatically deleted after 14 months. Data whose retention period has been reached is automatically deleted once a month. You can revoke your consent at any time with effect for the future by preventing the storage of cookies through a corresponding setting in your browser software; however, we would like to point out that in this case you may not be able to use all functions of this website to their full extent.
You can also prevent the collection of data generated by the cookie and related to your use of the website (including your IP address) to Google and the processing of this data by Google by downloading and installing the Browser-Add-on. Opt-out cookies prevent future collection of your information when you visit this website. To prevent Universal Analytics from collecting data across multiple devices, you must opt-out on all systems in use. Click here (https://tools.google.com/dlpage/gaoptout?hl=de) to set the opt-out cookie to disable Google Analytics b) Google Adwords / Conversion Tracking We also use the online advertising program “Google AdWords - Conversion Tracking”. Conversion tracking is an analysis service provided by Google. When you click on an ad placed by Google, a conversion tracking cookie is placed on your device. These cookies expire after 30 days, do not contain any personal information and are therefore not personally identifiable. If you visit certain pages on our site and the cookie has not expired, Google and we may recognize that you clicked on the ad and were directed to that page. Each Google AdWords customer receives a different cookie. As a result, there is no way that cookies can be tracked through websites of AdWords customers. The information collected using the conversion cookie is used to compile conversion statistics for AdWords customers who have opted in to conversion tracking. The information collected using the conversion cookie is used to generate conversion statistics for AdWords customers who have opted for conversion tracking, which tells them the total number of users who have clicked on their ad and been redirected to a page with a conversion tracking tag. However, they will not receive any information that can be used to identify users personally.
If you do not wish to participate in tracking, you can object to this use by preventing the installation of cookies from the domain “googleadservices.com” by means of a corresponding setting in your browser software (deactivation option). You will then not be included in the conversion tracking statistics. You can find further information and the Google data protection declaration at: http://www.google.com/policies/technologies/ads/, http://www.google.de/policies/privacy/.

 

7. Data security

 

We make every effort to take all necessary technical and organizational security measures to store your personal data in such a way that they are not accessible to third parties or the public. Should you wish to contact us by e-mail, we would like to point out that the confidentiality of the information transmitted cannot be completely guaranteed with this method of communication. We therefore recommend sending us confidential information exclusively by post.
