The security of your data and the protection of your privacy is important to us. We are committed to protecting your privacy and to complying with statutory data protection provisions. In the following, we explain how we handle your personal data. 

Which data is processed in detail and how it is used depends largely on the services requested or agreed in each case.

Nature and purpose of the processing: 

We use the e-commerce platform of Salesforce Commerce Cloud, a service of Salesforce.com Germany GmbH, Erika-Mann-Str. 63, D-80636 Munich. 

Salesforce stores this website on its servers (hosting). In connection with hosting, Salesforce processes personal data on our behalf that arises from the following actions of the user:

Since Salesforce is headquartered in the United States, this does not preclude data processing on Salesforce servers in the United States.

We have entered into a contract with Salesforce for data processing. In addition, we have contractually ensured that the data is hosted by Salesforce on servers based in the European Union. The location of the servers is Frankfurt am Main. With regard to the data processing that takes place within the scope of hosting our website, we have concluded a “Data Protection Addendum” (DPA) with Salesforce.

Salesforce restricts access to data to those access possibilities permitted by law. Salesforce Commerce Cloud is also certified by reliable security standards, including PCI-DSS, SOC2, and ISO 27001.

5.1 Newsletter  

Nature and purpose of the processing: 

For the delivery of our newsletter, we collect personal data that is transmitted to us via an input mask. We need a valid email address in order to register you successfully. 

In order to verify that a registration is actually made by the owner of a particular email address, we use the “double opt-in” (DOI) procedure for online registrations. This means that you will receive an email after registering for the newsletter in which you must reconfirm your newsletter registration. 

When signing up for a newsletter in one of our BOGNER stores, we only need your signature (“single opt-in”) to confirm the accuracy of your data. A renewed confirmation of the newsletter registration by email is therefore not required.  

At the time of DOI confirmation, the following data will also be stored: 

1. Date and time 
2. Country and language 
3. Channel: Webshop or Store ID

In addition, we evaluate your reading and usage behaviour in order to constantly improve our newsletter and adapt it to your interests and requirements.

Storage period: 

The data will only be processed in this context as long as the relevant consent has been given. 

Provision prescribed or required: 

The provision of your personal data is voluntary and based solely on your consent. Unfortunately, we cannot send you our newsletter or make you customised offers without your consent.  

Withdrawal of consent: 

You can withdraw your consent to the storage of your personal data and its use for the dispatch of the newsletter, or the evaluation of the newsletter, at any time with effect for the future. You will find a corresponding unsubscribe link in every newsletter.  

You can also revoke your consent via the other contact options provided on the website.

In terms of the European region, TikTok is operated by TikTok Technology Limited (10 Earlsfort Terrace, Dublin, D02 T380, Ireland) and TikTok Information Technologies UK Limited (6th Floor, One London Wall, London, EC2Y 5EB, United Kingdom).

We use our TikTok account to provide information on our products, services and our company, as well as share some visual insights and inspiration. In this respect, personal data may be processed - for example to personalise content, analyse user behaviour or create statistics on the use of our posts.

The processing of your personal data is based on our legitimate interest in accordance with Art. 6 (1) f) GDPR. Our legitimate interest includes an effective online presence, improved accessibility to our target groups, image cultivation, user information and employer branding. Furthermore, we would like to point out that together with TikTok, we are jointly responsible for processing the personal data of the visitors to this page (Art. 26 GDPR). We have concluded corresponding contracts with TikTok for this purpose.

Please note that you are personally responsible for your use of the TikTok channel and its functions provided by us. This applies in particular to interactive elements, such as comments on, sharing or liking content. We have no influence over the nature and scope of data collected and processed by TikTok.

If you have a TikTok profile and are logged in when visiting our page, TikTok may assign your activities and potentially create a usage profile. Data, such as your IP address, device information, interactions with content or your interests, may also be processed and stored. TikTok uses cookies and similar technologies among other things for this.

TikTok provides us with aggregated statistical data via the “TikTok Insights” tool with regard to our reach, interaction rates or the demographic characteristics of the users. This information helps us to optimise our content in a targeted manner. Personal data is processed on the basis of your consent in accordance with Art. 6 (1) a) GDPR.

Insofar TikTok transfers data to third countries without any adequacy decision from the EU Commission, TikTok refers to the use of standard contractual clauses to grant adequate data protection to EU citizens. We would like to point out that this data transfer may involve risk to data subjects since they cannot influence the processing or storage of their personal data or fully enforce their rights assured under the GDPR as a data subject with respect to this data processing.

We only handle personal data insofar as data protection regulations allow. In so doing, we also strive to use all the necessary technical and organisational security measures to adequately protect your personal data from unauthorised access and misuse at all times. 

Your data will only be passed on to service providers (contract processors) if it is necessary for the fulfilment of our contractual duties. All service providers are obliged to treat your data confidentially on the basis of an order processing agreement. 

Insofar as we store or process personal data, this is done within a secure data centre. To protect the security of your data during transmission, we use encryption procedures (e.g. SSL) via HTTPS. Our servers are secured by means of a firewall and virus protection. Back-up and recovery procedures, as well as role and authorisation concepts, are standard for us. 

Our employees are obliged to observe the regulations of the GDPR and the BDSG (Federal Data Protection Act) when handling data.

We reserve the right to adapt this Privacy Policy so that it always complies with the current legal requirements or in order to implement changes to our services in the Privacy Policy, such as when introducing new services. The new Privacy Policy will then apply to your next visit.
