Contact our data protection officer: Sebastian Herting herting@datenschutzkanzlei.de

The controller decides alone or jointly with others on the purposes and means of the processing of personal data (e.g. names, contact details or similar).

Revocation of your consent to data processing

Some data processing operations are only possible with your express consent. You can revoke your consent at any time. An informal communication by e-mail is sufficient for the revocation. The legality of the data processing carried out until the revocation remains unaffected by the revocation.

Right to complain to the competent supervisory authority

As a data subject, you have the right to lodge a complaint with the competent supervisory authority in the event of a breach of data protection law. The competent supervisory authority with regard to data protection issues is the State Data Protection Commissioner of the federal state in which our company's registered office is located. The following link provides a list of data protection officers and their contact details: https://www.bfdi.bund.de/DE/Infothek/Anschriften_Links/anschriften_links-node.html.

Right to data portability

You have the right to have data that we process automatically on the basis of your consent or in fulfilment of a contract handed over to you or to third parties. The data will be provided in a machine-readable format. If you request the direct transfer of the data to another person responsible, this will only be done insofar as it is technically feasible.

Right to information, correction, blocking, deletion

Within the framework of the applicable legal provisions, you have the right at any time to free information about your stored personal data, the origin of the data, its recipients and the purpose of the data processing and, if applicable, a right to correction, blocking or deletion of this data. In this regard and also for further questions on the subject of personal data, you can contact us at any time via the contact options listed in the imprint.

SSL or TLS encryption

For security reasons and to protect the transmission of confidential content that you send to us as the site operator, our website uses SSL or TLS encryption. This means that data you transmit via this website cannot be read by third parties. You can recognise an encrypted connection by the "https://" address line of your browser and the lock symbol in the browser line.

Server log files

In server log files, the provider of the website automatically collects and stores information that your browser automatically transmits to us. These are:

  • Browser type and version
  • Operating system used
  • Referrer URL
  • Host name of the accessing computer
  • Time of the server request
  • IP address

This data is not merged with other data sources. The data processing is based on Art. 6 para. 1 lit. f DSGVO, which permits the processing of data for the fulfilment of a contract or pre-contractual measures.

Data transmission upon conclusion of the contract for the purchase and shipment of goods

Personal data will only be transmitted to third parties if this is necessary in the context of contract processing. Third parties may be, for example, payment service providers or logistics companies. Any further transmission of data will not take place or will only take place if you have expressly consented to this. Your data will only be processed and stored by Amptown Cases to the extent necessary to process the contract.

The basis for data processing is Art. 6 para. 1 lit. b DSGVO, which permits the processing of data for the fulfilment of a contract or pre-contractual measures.

Registration on this website

You can register on our website to use certain functions. The transmitted data is used exclusively for the purpose of using the respective offer or service. Mandatory information requested during registration must be provided in full. Otherwise, we will reject the registration.

In the event of important changes, for example for technical reasons, we will inform you by e-mail. The e-mail will be sent to the address given during registration.

The processing of the data entered during registration is based on your consent (Art. 6 para. 1 lit. b DSGVO). You can revoke your consent at any time. An informal communication by e-mail is sufficient for the revocation. The legality of the data processing already carried out remains unaffected by the revocation.

We store the data collected during registration for the period that you are registered on our website. Your data will be deleted if you cancel your registration. Legal retention periods remain unaffected.

Contact form

Data transmitted via the contact form, including your contact details, are stored in order to be able to process your enquiry or to be available for follow-up questions. This data will not be passed on without your consent.

The data entered in the contact form is processed exclusively on the basis of your consent (Art. 6 para. 1 lit. b DSGVO). You may revoke your consent at any time. An informal communication by e-mail is sufficient for the revocation. The legality of the data processing operations carried out until the revocation remains unaffected by the revocation.

Data transmitted via the contact form will remain with us until you request us to delete it, revoke your consent to store it or there is no longer any need to store the data. Mandatory legal provisions - in particular retention periods - remain unaffected.

rue Pierre Joigneaux, 92270 Bois-Colombes, France. Weglot is
registered in the Nanterre Trade, company register no. 818 164 964.
Weglot is loaded when you visit the website, so you can change the language to other than

The website operator has a legitimate interest in the presentation
of a significant scope of its website in common languages for

6 para. 1 lit. a DSGVO; the consent can be revoked at any time.

Notes on our Facebook page

In addition to this website, we also operate the Facebook page https://www.facebook.com/amptowncases/, through which we present our company, inform about our offers and communicate with our customers and interested parties. We only process personal data when you interact with our Facebook page, e.g. when you post a comment, click a Like button or send us a message. The legal basis for data processing by us in this regard is, on the one hand, Art. 6 para. 1 letter b) DSGVO (e.g. if you send us a contract-relevant enquiry). On the other hand, data processing may also be based on your consent pursuant to Art. 6 para. 1 lit. a) DSGVO (e.g. if you "like" a post of ours, comment on it or upload content to our site). You can revoke a given consent at any time with effect for the future by deleting the comment or the content in question. A revocation does not affect the lawfulness of the processing carried out on the basis of the consent until the revocation. Furthermore, we analyse the views and interactions on our Facebook page. For this purpose, Facebook creates usage profiles and provides us with anonymous data only.

Please note that when using and calling up our Facebook page, your personal data will also be processed by the "Facebook" operating companies. These are Facebook Ireland Ltd., 4 Grand Canal Square, Grand Canal Harbour, Dublin 2, Ireland, and Facebook, Inc., 1601 Willow Road, Menlo Park, California 94025, USA. In addition to the processing described above, Facebook also processes your data for analysis and advertising purposes and to display personalised advertising. To the best of our knowledge, Facebook also uses cookies that store your usage behaviour (also across different end devices). This enables Facebook to display targeted advertising on its own platform and on third-party sites. Further information can be found in Facebook's privacy policy, which is available here: https://www.facebook.com/about/privacy/. Facebook also offers the option to object to certain data processing; information and opt-out options in this regard can be found at https://www.facebook.com/settings?tab=ads. Please note that, according to Facebook's privacy policy, user data is also processed in the USA or other third countries. Facebook only transfers user data to countries for which an adequacy decision has been issued by the European Commission in accordance with Art. 45 of the Data Protection Regulation or on the basis of appropriate guarantees in accordance with Art. 46 of the Data Protection Regulation. Facebook Inc. is certified under the EU-US Privacy Shield and thereby provides an adequate level of data protection in accordance with Art. 45 DSGVO(https://www.privacyshield.gov/participant?id=a2zt0000000GnywAAC&status=Active).

With regard to data processing via our Facebook page, you also have the option of asserting your data subject rights (see "Your rights" below) against Facebook. Further information on this can be found in Facebook's privacy policy.

YouTube

For the integration and display of video content, our website uses plugins from YouTube. The provider of the video portal is YouTube, LLC, 901 Cherry Ave, San Bruno, CA 94066, USA.

When a page with an integrated YouTube plugin is called up, a connection to the YouTube servers is established. This tells YouTube which of our pages you have accessed.

YouTube can assign your surfing behaviour directly to your personal profile if you are logged into your YouTube account. You have the option to prevent this by logging out first.

YouTube is used in the interest of an appealing presentation of our online offers. This represents a legitimate interest within the meaning of Art. 6 para. 1 lit. f DSGVO.

Details on the handling of user data can be found in YouTube's privacy policy at: https://www.google.de/intl/de/policies/privacy.

Cookies

Our website uses cookies. These are small text files that your web browser stores on your terminal device. Cookies help us to make our website more user-friendly, effective and secure.

Some cookies are "session cookies." Such cookies are deleted automatically at the end of your browser session. On the other hand, other cookies remain on your terminal device until you delete them yourself. Such cookies help us to recognise you when you return to
our website.

With a modern web browser, you can monitor, restrict or prevent the setting of cookies. Many web browsers can be configured so that cookies are automatically deleted when the program is closed. Deactivating cookies
may result in limited functionality of our website.

The setting of cookies, which are necessary for the exercise of electronic communication processes or the provision of certain functions desired by you (e.g. shopping cart), is based on Art. 6 para. 1 lit. f DSGVO. As the operator of this
website, we have a legitimate interest in storing cookies for the technically error-free and smooth provision of our services. If other cookies are set (e.g. for analysis functions), these are dealt with separately in this
data protection declaration.

Google Analytics

Our website uses functions of the web analysis service Google Analytics. The provider of the web analytics service is Google Ireland Limited, Gordon House, Barrow Street, Dublin 4, Ireland.

Google Analytics uses "cookies." These are small text files that your web browser stores on your end device and enable an analysis of website usage. Information generated by cookies about your use of our website
is transmitted to a Google server and stored there. The server is usually located in the USA. A transfer of your data to the USA cannot be excluded.

The setting of Google Analytics cookies is based on Art. 6 para. 1 lit. f DSGVO. As the operator of this website, we have a legitimate interest in analysing user behaviour in order to optimise our website and, if necessary, our advertising.

IP anonymisation

We use Google Analytics in conjunction with the IP anonymisation function. It ensures that Google shortens your IP address within member states of the European Union or in other contracting states of the Agreement on the European Economic Area
before transferring it to the USA. There may be exceptional cases in which Google transmits the full IP address to a server in the USA and shortens it there. Google will use this information on our behalf for the purpose of evaluating your use of the
website, compiling reports on website activity and providing us with other services relating to website activity and internet usage. The
IP address transmitted by Google Analytics will not be merged with other Google data.

Browser plugin

The setting of cookies by your web browser can be prevented. However, some functions of our website may be restricted as a result. You can also prevent the collection of data relating to your website use, including your IP address and
subsequent processing by Google. This is possible by downloading and installing the browser plugin accessible via the following link: https://tools.google.com/dlpage/gaoptout?hl=de.

Objection to the collection of data

You can prevent the collection of your data by Google Analytics by clicking on the following link. An opt-out cookie will be set, which will prevent the collection of your data during future visits to our website: Deactivate Google Analytics.

Details on how Google Analytics handles user data can be found in Google's privacy policy: https://support.google.com/analytics/answer/6004245?hl=de.

Job processing

In order to fully comply with the legal data protection requirements, we have concluded an order processing contract with Google.

Demographic characteristics in Google Analytics

Our website uses the "demographic characteristics" function of Google Analytics. It can be used to create reports that contain statements about the age, gender and interests of site visitors. This data comes from interest-based advertising
from Google as well as from visitor data from third-party providers. It is not possible to assign the data to a specific person. You can deactivate this function at any time. This is possible via the ad settings in your Google account or
by generally prohibiting the collection of your data by Google Analytics, as explained in the item "Objection to data collection".

PayPal

Our website enables payment via PayPal. The payment service provider is PayPal (Europe) S.à.r.l. et Cie, S.C.A., 22-24 Boulevard Royal, L-2449 Luxembourg.

If you pay with PayPal, the payment data you enter will be transmitted to PayPal.

The transfer of your data to PayPal is based on Art. 6 para. 1 lit. a DSGVO (consent) and Art. 6 para. 1 lit. b DSGVO (processing for the performance of a contract). You may revoke your consent at any time.
Data processing operations in the past remain effective in the event of a revocation.
