Privacy policy

General note and mandatory information

Designation of the responsible body

The controller responsible for data processing on this website is:

Makani GmbH
Serkan Dagdelen
Obstmarschenweg 258
21683 Stade

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

Revocation of your consent to data processing

Some data processing operations are only possible with your explicit consent. You can revoke your previously given consent at any time. An informal email notification is sufficient for this revocation. The legality of data processing carried out before the revocation remains unaffected by the revocation.

Right to lodge a complaint with 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 for data protection issues is the state data protection officer of the federal state in which our company is based. 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 receive data that we process automatically based on your consent or to fulfill a contract, or to have it transferred to a third party. This data will be provided in a machine-readable format. If you request the direct transfer of this data to another data controller, this will only be done if it is technically feasible.

Right to information, correction, blocking, deletion

In accordance with applicable legal regulations, you have the right at any time to receive free information about your stored personal data, including its origin, recipients, and the purpose of its processing. You also have the right, if applicable, to have this data corrected, blocked, or deleted. For these and any other questions regarding personal data, you can contact us at any time using the contact options provided 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 that you transmit via this website cannot be read by third parties. You can recognize an encrypted connection by the "https://" address line of your browser and the lock symbol in the browser line.

Data transmission upon conclusion of a 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.

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

You can register on our website to use certain features. The information you provide will be used solely for the purpose of accessing the specific offer or service. All required information requested during registration must be provided completely. Otherwise, we will not be able to complete your 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 provided during registration.

The processing of the data entered during registration is based on your consent (Art. 6 para. 1 lit. a GDPR). You can withdraw your consent at any time. An informal notification by e-mail is sufficient for the revocation. The legality of the data processing that has already taken place 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. Statutory retention periods remain unaffected.

Information submitted through the contact form, including your contact details, will be stored to process your inquiry or to be available for any follow-up questions. This data will not be shared without your consent.

The data you provide in the contact form is processed exclusively based on your consent (Art. 6 Para. 1 lit. a GDPR). You have the right to withdraw your consent at any time. To do so, simply send us an informal email. The legality of any data processing that occurred before your withdrawal remains unaffected.

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

Storage duration of posts and comments

Contributions and comments as well as related data, such as IP addresses, are stored. The content remains on our website until it has been completely deleted or has to be deleted for legal reasons.

Posts and comments are stored on the basis of your consent (Art. 6 para. 1 lit. a GDPR). You can withdraw your consent at any time. An informal notification by e-mail is sufficient for the revocation. The legality of data processing operations that have already taken place remains unaffected by the revocation.

Newsletter data

We require an e-mail address from you in order to send you our newsletter. Verification of the e-mail address provided is necessary and you must consent to receiving the newsletter. Additional data is not collected or is voluntary. The data is used exclusively for sending the newsletter.

We process the data you provide when subscribing to our newsletter solely based on your consent (Art. 6 para. 1 lit. a GDPR). You can withdraw your consent at any time. To do so, simply send an informal email or unsubscribe using the 'unsubscribe' link in the newsletter. The lawfulness of data processing carried out before your withdrawal remains unaffected.

Data entered to set up the subscription will be deleted if you unsubscribe. If this data has been transmitted to us for other purposes and elsewhere, it will remain with us.

Cookies

Our website uses cookies. These are small text files that your web browser stores on your end 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. Other cookies, on the other hand, remain on your device until you delete them yourself. Such cookies help us to recognize 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 deleted automatically when the program is closed. Deactivating cookies may result in limited functionality of our website.

The setting of cookies, which are necessary for the performance of electronic communication processes or the provision of certain functions desired by you (e.g. shopping cart), takes place on the basis of Art. 6 para. 1 lit. f GDPR. As the operator of this website, we have a legitimate interest in the storage of cookies for the technically error-free and smooth provision of our services. If other cookies are set (e.g. for analysis functions), these are treated separately in this privacy policy.

Google Analytics

Our website uses functions of the web analysis service Google Analytics. The provider of the web analysis service is Google Inc, 1600 Amphitheatre Parkway, Mountain View, CA 94043, USA.

Google Analytics uses "cookies." These are small text files that your web browser stores on your device, enabling an analysis of how you use the website. Information generated by these cookies about your use of our website is transmitted to a Google server and stored there. These servers are typically located in the USA.

Google Analytics cookies are set on the basis of Art. 6 para. 1 lit. f GDPR. As the operator of this website, we have a legitimate interest in analyzing user behavior in order to optimize our website and, if necessary, advertising.

IP anonymization

We use Google Analytics in conjunction with the IP anonymization function. It ensures that Google truncates your IP address within member states of the European Union or in other signatory states to the Agreement on the European Economic Area before transmitting it to the USA. There may be exceptional cases in which Google transmits the full IP address to a server in the USA and truncates 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

You can prevent your web browser from setting cookies. However, this may limit some features of our website. You can also prevent Google from collecting and processing data about your website use, including your IP address. This can be done by downloading and installing the browser plugin available at the following link: https://tools.google.com/dlpage/gaoptout?hl=de.

Objection to data collection

You can prevent Google Analytics from collecting your data by clicking the following link. This will set an opt-out cookie that stops your data from being collected on 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.

Order processing

We have concluded an order processing contract with Google in order to fully comply with the statutory data protection requirements.

Demographic characteristics in Google Analytics

Our website uses the "demographics" feature provided by Google Analytics. This feature allows us to create reports that include information about the age, gender, and interests of our website visitors. This data comes from Google's interest-based advertising and from third-party visitor information. It is not possible to link this data to a specific person. You can deactivate this feature at any time. This can be done through the ad settings in your Google account or by generally prohibiting Google Analytics from collecting your data, as explained in the "Objection to Data Collection" section.

Instant bank transfer

Our website enables payment via "Sofortüberweisung." The provider of this payment service is Sofort GmbH, Theresienhöhe 12, 80339 Munich.

With the help of the "Sofortüberweisung" procedure, we receive a payment confirmation from Sofort GmbH in real time and can immediately begin to fulfill our obligations.

When paying with 'Sofortüberweisung', your PIN and TAN are transmitted to Sofort GmbH. The payment provider then logs into your online banking account, automatically checks your account balance, and processes the transfer. You will then receive an immediate transaction confirmation. Your transactions, overdraft limit, and the existence and balances of other accounts are also automatically checked after logging in.

In addition to PIN and TAN, the transmission to Sofort GmbH also includes payment data and personal data. The personal data includes your first and last name, address, telephone number(s), email address, IP address and any other data required for payment processing. This data transfer is necessary in order to establish your identity beyond doubt and to prevent attempts at fraud.

Your data is sent to Sofort GmbH according to Article 6, Paragraph 1, Letter a of the GDPR (based on your consent) and Article 6, Paragraph 1, Letter b of the GDPR (for processing needed to fulfill a contract).

Google AdSense

Our website uses Google AdSense. The provider is Google Inc, 1600 Amphitheatre Parkway, Mountain View, CA 94043, USA.

Google AdSense is used to integrate advertisements and sets cookies. Cookies are small text files that your web browser stores on your end device in order to analyze the use of the website. Google AdSense also uses web beacons. Web beacons are invisible graphics that make it possible to analyze visitor traffic on our website.

Information generated by cookies and web beacons is transmitted to Google servers and stored there. The server location is the USA. Google may pass this information on to contractual partners. However, Google will not merge your IP address with other data stored by you.

AdSense cookies are stored on the basis of Art. 6 para. 1 lit. f GDPR. As the website operator, we have a legitimate interest in analyzing user behavior in order to optimize our website and our advertising.

Using a modern web browser, you can monitor, restrict, and prevent cookies from being set. Disabling cookies may result in limited functionality of our website. By using our website, you agree to Google processing the data collected about you in the manner and for the purpose previously described.

Google AdWords and Google Conversion Tracking

Our website uses Google AdWords. The provider is Google Inc, 1600 Amphitheatre Parkway, Mountain View, CA 94043, United States.

AdWords is an online advertising program. As part of the online advertising program, we work with conversion tracking. After clicking on an ad placed by Google, a cookie is set for conversion tracking. Cookies are small text files that your web browser stores on your end device. Google AdWords cookies lose their validity after 30 days and are not used to personally identify users. The cookie allows Google and us to recognize that you have clicked on an ad and have been redirected to our website.

Each Google AdWords customer receives a different cookie. The cookies cannot be tracked via the websites of AdWords customers. Conversion cookies are used to create conversion statistics for AdWords customers who use conversion tracking. AdWords customers learn how many users clicked on their ad and were redirected to pages with a conversion tracking tag. However, AdWords customers do not receive any information that allows users to be personally identified. If you do not wish to participate in tracking, you can object to its use. In this case, the conversion cookie must be deactivated in the user settings of the browser. This will also prevent your data from being included in the conversion tracking statistics.

The storage of "conversion cookies" takes place on the basis of Art. 6 para. 1 lit. f GDPR. As the website operator, we have a legitimate interest in analyzing user behavior in order to optimize our website and our advertising.

Details on Google AdWords and Google Conversion Tracking can be found in Google's privacy policy: https://www.google.de/policies/privacy/.

With a modern web browser, you can monitor, restrict or prevent the setting of cookies. Deactivating cookies may result in limited functionality of our website.

By using these web fonts, it is possible to present you with the presentation of our website that we desire, regardless of which fonts are available to you locally. This is done by retrieving the Google Web Fonts from a Google server in the USA and the associated transfer of your data to Google. This involves your IP address and which of our pages you have visited. The use of Google Web Fonts is based on Art. 6 para. 1 lit. f GDPR. As the operator of this website, we have a legitimate interest in the optimal presentation and transmission of our website.
