Privacy Policy for femmefooting.com
Thank you for visiting our online store. Protecting your personal data is a top priority for us. This privacy policy provides detailed information about how we handle your data.
1. Access Data and Hosting
You can visit our websites without disclosing any personal information. Each time a webpage is accessed, the web server automatically records a server log file containing data such as the name of the requested file, your IP address, the date and time of access, the volume of data transmitted, and the requesting internet service provider.
This access data is analyzed solely to ensure the stable and reliable operation of the website and to improve our services. The legal basis for this processing is Art. 6 (1) (f) GDPR, which serves to safeguard our legitimate interests in the proper presentation and optimization of our offer. All access data is deleted no later than seven days after the end of your visit.
2. Hosting Services by a Third-Party Provider
A third-party service provider handles the hosting and presentation of our website on our behalf. Processing is carried out on servers within a country of the European Union or the European Economic Area. All data collected during your use of this website or through forms in the online shop, as described below, are processed on these servers. This arrangement supports our legitimate interests in an efficient and secure presentation of our offer, pursuant to Art. 6 (1) (f) GDPR.
3. Content Delivery Networks – CloudFront
This website uses JavaScript code from Amazon Web Services, Inc. (Amazon CloudFront – Content Delivery Network (CDN)). If JavaScript is enabled in your browser, certain data may be transmitted to Amazon. We have no influence over the data Amazon associates with this transmission or the purposes for which it is used.
4. Data Collection and Use for Contract Processing and Customer Accounts
We collect personal data when you provide it voluntarily during an order, when contacting us (e.g., via contact form or email), or when creating a customer account. Mandatory fields are marked as such, as this information is necessary for contract fulfillment, processing your inquiries, or account creation. The specific data collected is visible in the respective input forms.
We use the data you provide pursuant to Art. 6 (1) (b) GDPR for contract execution and to handle your requests. After the contract is fully processed or your customer account is deleted, your data will be restricted for further processing and deleted upon expiry of statutory retention periods under tax and commercial law, unless you have expressly consented to further use or we reserve the right to use data as permitted by law. You can delete your customer account at any time by contacting us.
5. Data Transfer for Fulfillment of Contract
For contract fulfillment according to Art. 6 (1) (b) GDPR, we share your data with the shipping company tasked with delivery, as necessary. Depending on your chosen payment service provider during checkout, we transfer collected payment data to the commissioned financial institution or the selected payment service. Some payment providers may collect this data directly if you create an account with them. In such cases, their respective privacy policies apply.
6. Shipping with DHL Express / DHL
To provide you with shipping information, we forward your email address to DHL Express or DHL so they can inform you about your package’s shipment status. This processing is necessary for the performance of the shipping contract, based on Art. 6 (1) (b) GDPR. DHL uses your email address solely for this purpose and is obligated to handle your data in compliance with data protection laws. By placing an order, you agree to this transfer.
7. Use of Data for Postal Advertising and Your Right to Object
We reserve the right to use your first and last name and postal address for our own promotional purposes, such as sending offers and product information by post. This serves our legitimate interest in promoting our products to our customers, per Art. 6 (1) (f) GDPR. In this context, data may be used for promotional purposes, analysis of purchasing preferences, sending direct marketing, or birthday greetings if you provided your date of birth during newsletter registration.
