Your data is generally processed exclusively for the purpose of initiating a contract or subsequently for processing the concluded contract, in particular to fulfill the obligations agreed in the concluded contract by Christian Horn (Banana Bastard).

The legality of the data processing is based on Art 6 Paragraph 1 lit b GDPR (contract initiation and fulfillment).

The data you provide will be forwarded to service providers, in particular to payment processing and parcel service providers, to the extent absolutely necessary for the processing and fulfillment of the contract. If you choose to pay using PayPal®, PayPal® is responsible to you for processing your data; You can access their data protection declaration in advance via the following link: https://www.paypal.com/at/webapps/mpp/ua/privacy-full.  
 

Your data will only be forwarded to contract processors who offer sufficient guarantees for data protection-compliant processing and who process your data only on instructions from Christian Horn (Banana Bastard) on the basis of a written contract. There is no data transfer to a third country (outside the EU).
 

In principle, your data will not be kept longer than is absolutely necessary for the respective processing purposes mentioned above. Your data will therefore generally be stored until the expiry of the retention periods under tax law (usually seven years from the end of the calendar year) or, if the processing is based on your consent, no longer than the receipt of your revocation, unless for record keeping as evidence in the case of legal Disputes (up to 30 years according to ABGB) a longer storage is necessary. It goes without saying that we always use the shortest deadline as a guide.

If your data is processed on the basis of your consent, you have the right to withdraw your consent at any time. The legality of the processing of your data up to the point of revocation remains unaffected by your revocation.

In addition, you basically have the right to information, correction, deletion, restriction of processing, objection and data portability. If you want to exercise these rights, please contact us (see above for contact details). You also have the right to lodge a complaint with the Austrian Data Protection Authority, Wickenburggasse 8, 1080 Vienna.
 

The provision of your data to us is neither legally nor contractually required (and is therefore voluntary), however - if you want to conclude a contract with us - it is absolutely necessary and necessary for the initiation or conclusion of a contract and subsequently also for the fulfillment of the contract. If your data is not provided, the aforementioned purposes cannot be fulfilled, so that, for example, a contractual relationship with us and the execution of the contract would not be possible. Your data will not be used for automated decision-making.

Cookies

Our website uses HTTP cookies to save user-specific data.
In the following we explain what cookies are and why they are used so that you can better understand the following data protection declaration.

What exactly are cookies?

Whenever you surf the Internet, you are using a browser. Well-known browsers are, for example, Chrome, Safari, Firefox, Internet Explorer and Microsoft Edge. Most websites save small text files in your browser. These files are called cookies.

One thing cannot be dismissed out of hand: Cookies are really useful little helpers. Almost all websites use cookies. More precisely, they are HTTP cookies, as there are also other cookies for other areas of application. HTTP cookies are small files that our website stores on your computer. These cookie files are automatically placed in the cookie folder, which is the "brain" of your browser. A cookie consists of a name and a value. When defining a cookie, one or more attributes must also be specified.

Cookies save certain user data about you, such as language or personal page settings. When you call up our site again, your browser transmits the "user-related" information back to our site. Thanks to cookies, our website knows who you are and offers you your usual standard settings. In some browsers, each cookie has its own file, in others, such as Firefox, all cookies are stored in a single file.

There are both first-party cookies and third-party cookies. First-party cookies are created directly from our side, third-party cookies are created by partner websites (e.g. Google Analytics). Each cookie must be evaluated individually, as each cookie stores different data. The expiry time of a cookie also varies from a few minutes to a few years. Cookies are not software programs and do not contain viruses, Trojans or other "pests". Cookies cannot access information on your PC either.

For example, cookie data can look like this:

  • Name: _ga

  • Expiry time: 2 years

  • Use: Differentiation of website visitors

  • Exemplary value: GA1.2.1326744211.152221091325

A browser should support the following minimum sizes:

  • A cookie should be able to contain at least 4096 bytes

  • At least 50 cookies should be able to be stored per domain

  • A total of at least 3000 cookies should be able to be stored

 

What types of cookies are there?

The question of which cookies we use in particular depends on the services used and is clarified in the following sections of the data protection declaration. At this point we would like to briefly discuss the different types of HTTP cookies.

There are 4 types of cookies:

Absolutely necessary cookies
These cookies are necessary to ensure the basic functions of the website. For example, these cookies are needed when a user puts a product in the shopping cart, then continues surfing on other pages and only goes to checkout later. These cookies do not delete the shopping cart, even if the user closes his browser window.

Functional cookies
These cookies collect information about user behavior and whether the user receives any error messages. These cookies are also used to measure the loading time and the behavior of the website in different browsers.

Goal-oriented cookies
These cookies ensure better user-friendliness. For example, entered locations, font sizes or form data are saved.

Advertising cookies
These cookies are also called targeting cookies. They serve to deliver customized advertising to the user. That can be very practical, but also very annoying.

When you visit a website for the first time, you will usually be asked which of these types of cookies you would like to allow. And of course this decision is also saved in a cookie.

How can I delete cookies?

You decide for yourself how and whether you want to use cookies. Regardless of which service or website the cookies originate from, you always have the option of deleting cookies, only partially allowing them or deactivating them. For example, you can block third-party cookies but allow all other cookies.

If you want to find out which cookies have been stored in your browser, if you want to change or delete cookie settings, you can find this in your browser settings:

Chrome: Delete, activate and manage cookies in Chrome
Safari: manage cookies and website data with Safari
Firefox: Delete cookies to remove data that websites have stored on your computer
Internet Explorer: deleting and managing cookies
Microsoft Edge: Deleting and managing cookies

If you generally do not want cookies, you can set up your browser so that it always informs you when a cookie is to be set. In this way, you can decide for each individual cookie whether or not to allow the cookie. The procedure is different depending on the browser. It is best to search for the instructions in Google with the search term “Delete cookies Chrome” or “Deactivate cookies Chrome” in the case of a Chrome browser or replace the word “Chrome” with the name of your browser, eg Edge, Firefox, Safari.

 

What about my data protection?

The so-called “cookie guidelines” have existed since 2009. It states that the storage of cookies requires the consent of the website visitor (i.e. you). Within the EU countries, however, there are still very different reactions to these guidelines. In Austria, however, this directive was implemented in Section 96 (3) of the Telecommunications Act (TKG).

If you want to know more about cookies and don't shy away from technical documentation, we recommend  https://tools.ietf.org/html/rfc6265 , the Request for Comments of the Internet Engineering Task Force (IETF) called "HTTP State Management Mechanism".

 

Google reCAPTCHA privacy policy

We use Google reCAPTCHA from Google Inc. (1600 Amphitheater Parkway Mountain View, CA 94043, USA) to prevent spam.
