When you access our website, general information is automatically recorded. We (or our web space provider) automatically collect and store in our server log file information that your browser transmits to us.

These are:
• browser type / version
• used operating system
• referrer URL (the previously visited page)
• host name of the accessing computer (IP address)
• time of the server request.

This is only information that does not allow conclusions about your person. This information is technically necessary in order to correctly deliver the contents of websites requested by you and is necessary when using the Internet. A merge of this data with other data sources will not be done. Moreover, after a statistical analysis, the data will be deleted.

In accordance with the legal requirements of the German Federal Data Protection Act (BDSG), the EU General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR) and the German Tele-Media Act (TMG) we collect personal data only when permitted by law and if you give us personal data in the context of your order, at the opening a customer account or register for our newsletter voluntarily. We use the data provided by you if no separate consent has been given only to answer your inquiries and to fulfill and process your order. The use of customer data for advertising purposes is waived by Käfer Berlin GmbH, unless you have expressly consented to the further use of your data. When subscribing to the newsletter, your e-mail address will be used with your consent for your own advertising purposes until you unsubscribe from the newsletter. The deregistration is possible at any time.

We only handle with personal data as far as this is possible in accordance with the data protection regulations. We also endeavor to provide all necessary technical and organizational security measures to protect your personal data against unauthorized access and misuse at any time. To protect the security of your data during transmission, we use encryption techniques (e.g. SSL) over HTTPS. Our servers are secured by firewall and virus protection. Back-up and recovery procedures as well as role and authorization concepts are routines for us. Our employees are obliged to observe the regulations of the TMG, the BDSG and the GDPR when dealing with data.

Your address data will be forwarded to the shipping company commissioned with the delivery, insofar as this is necessary for the delivery of the goods and to inform you about the status of your parcel delivery. To process payments, we pass your payment details to our PCI DSS certified service provider Sixx Payments. The invoice amount will be charged to the specified credit card account after checking the availability of the goods by Sixx Payments. There is no storage of credit card information in the Käfer online shop.

When contacting us (for example via contact form or e-mail) your details will be stored for the purpose of processing the request as well as in case of follow-up questions.

With the newsletter we inform you about us and our offers. In addition, as a registered newsletter recipient, you will also receive other current offers and information about promotions by Käfer Berlin GmbH and other companies belonging to the Käfer Group. If you want to receive the newsletter and other services, we require a valid e-mail address and information that allows us to verify that you are the owner of the e-mail address or the owner to receive the newsletters and other offers. Further data is not collected. These data are used only for the dispatch of the newsletter as well as for current offers and are not passed on to third parties. Disclosure to other companies of the Käfer Group will only take place if this is necessary for the transmission of current offers and information about promotions of these companies. By registering for the newsletter, we save your IP address and the date of registration. This storage serves us only as proof in the event that a third party misuses an e-mail address and logs on without the knowledge of the person entitled to receive the newsletter. You can revoke your consent to the storage of the data, the e-mail address and its use for sending the newsletter and current offers at any time. The revocation can be made via a link in the newsletters themselves or by message (for example, by contact form or e-mail).

We adhere to the principles of data avoidance and data economy. Therefore, we only store your personal data for as long as it is necessary to achieve the purposes stated herein or as provided for by the various storage periods by law. After discontinuation of the respective purpose or expiration of these deadlines, the corresponding data will be routinely and in accordance with the statutory provisions blocked or deleted.

You have the right to receive information about your personal data stored by Käfer Berlin GmbH at any time. Furthermore, you have the right to correct, block or, apart from the prescribed data storage for business transactions, deletion of your personal data. For a data lock to be taken into account at all times, these data must be stored in a lock file for control purposes. You can also request the deletion of the data, as long as there is no legal archiving obligation. As far as such an obligation exists, we lock your data on request. After discontinuation of the respective purpose or expiration of these deadlines, the corresponding data are routinely and in accordance with the statutory provisions blocked or deleted.

For questions about the collection, processing or use of your personal data, information, correction, blocking or deletion of data and revocation of any given consent or objection to a particular use of data, please contact: datenschutz@feinkost-kaefer.de

This website uses Google Analytics, a web analytics service provided by Google Inc. ("Google"). Google Analytics uses so-called "cookies", text files that are stored on your computer and that allow an analysis of the use of the website by you. The information generated by the cookie about your use of this website is usually transmitted to a Google server in the USA and stored there. However, if IP anonymisation is activated on this website, your IP address will be shortened by Google beforehand within member states of the European Union or other parties to the Agreement on the European Economic Area. Only in exceptional cases will the full IP address be sent to a Google server in the US and shortened there. 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 activity and to provide other services related to website activity and internet usage to the website operator. The IP address provided by Google Analytics as part of Google Analytics will not be merged with other Google data. You can prevent the storage of cookies by a corresponding setting of your browser software; however, please note that if you do this, you may not be able to use all the features of this website to the fullest extent possible.

We use the Google Remarketing service of Google Inc., 1600 Amphitheater Parkway, Mountain View, CA 94043 USA, hereinafter "Google", on our website. The Google Remarketing service can serve ads to people who have visited our website in the past. Within the Google ad network, advertisements tailored to their interests can be displayed on our site. Google Remarketing uses cookies for this evaluation. Cookies are small text files that are stored on your computer and allow an analysis of the use of the website. This creates the ability to recognize our visitors once they visit websites within Google's advertising network. In this way, within the Google ad network, advertisements may be presented that relate to content that the visitor previously viewed on Google Network websites that also use Google's remarketing feature. Google does not collect any personal data. You can disable this feature if you make the appropriate settings at http://www.google.com/settings/ads.

To promote our website, we also use the Google Advertising Tool "Google AdWords". As part of this, we use the "Conversion Tracking" analysis tool from Google Inc., 1600 Amphitheater Parkway, Mountain View, CA 94043 USA, "Google", on our website. If you have reached our website via a Google ad, a cookie will be stored on your computer. Cookies are small text files that your Internet browser stores and saves on your computer. These so-called "conversion cookies" lose their validity after 30 days and are not used for your personal identification. If you visit certain pages on our website and the cookie has not expired yet, we and Google may recognize that you, as a user, have clicked on one of our Google-placed ads and have been redirected to our site. The information obtained through the "Conversion Cookies" is used by Google to create visitor statistics for our website. These statistics tell us the total number of users who clicked on our ad, and which pages on our site were subsequently viewed by the user. However, we or other advertisers through "Google AdWords" will not receive any information that will allow them to personally identify their users. You have the option of preventing the installation of "conversion cookies" by setting your browser accordingly, for example, by setting a browser that generally deactivates the automatic setting of cookies or specifically blocks only cookies from the domain "googleadservices.com". Google's privacy policy can be found at the following link: https://services.google.com/sitestats/en.html

In order to render our content correctly and graphically appealing across browsers, we use script libraries and font libraries on this website, such as: Google Webfonts (https://www.google.com/webfonts/). Google Webfonts are transferred to the cache of your browser to prevent multiple loading. If the browser does not support Google Webfonts or prohibits access, content will be displayed in a standard font. The call of script libraries or font libraries automatically triggers a connection to the operator of the library. It is theoretically possible - but currently also unclear whether and if so for what purposes - that operators of such libraries collect data. The privacy policy of the library operator Google can be found here: https://www.google.com/policies/privacy/

This website uses Google Maps to visually display geographic information. When using Google Maps, Google also collects, processes and uses data about the use of map features by visitors.

On some of our websites, we embed Youtube videos. The corresponding plug-ins are operated by YouTube, LLC, 901 Cherry Ave., San Bruno, CA 94066, USA. When you visit a page with the YouTube plug-in, it will connect to Youtube's servers. Youtube will be informed which pages you visit. If you are logged into your Youtube account, Youtube can assign your surfing behavior to you personally. This can be prevented by logging out of your Youtube account beforehand. If a Youtube video is started, the provider uses cookies that collect information about user behavior. Anyone who has disabled the storage of cookies for the Google Ad program will not have to expect such cookies when watching YouTube videos. Youtube also stores non-personal usage information in other cookies. If you want to prevent this, you must block the storage of cookies in the browser. For more information on data protection at "Youtube", see the privacy policy of the provider at: https://www.google.de/intl/en/policies/privacy/

Our website uses so-called social plugins ("plugins") of the social network Facebook operated by Facebook Inc., 1601 S. California Ave, Palo Alto, CA 94304, USA ("Facebook").

An overview of the Facebook plugins and their appearance can be found here: https://developers.facebook.com/docs/plugins When you visit a page of our website that contains such a plugin, your browser connects directly to the Facebook servers. The content of the plugin is transmitted by Facebook directly to your browser and integrated into the page. Through this integration, Facebook receives the information that your browser has accessed the corresponding page of our website, even if you do not have a Facebook profile or are currently not logged in to Facebook.

If you are logged in to Facebook, Facebook can immediately assign the visit to our website to your Facebook profile. If you interact with the plugins, for example, click the "Like" button or leave a comment, this information is also transmitted directly to a Facebook server and stored there. The information will also be published on your Facebook profile and displayed to your Facebook friends.
