Privacy Policy

As the operators of these pages, we take the protection of your personal data very seriously. We treat your personal data confidentially and in accordance with legal data protection regulations as well as this privacy policy.

The use of our website is generally possible without providing personal data. If you wish to use special services of our company through our website, however, the processing of personal data may become necessary. As far as personal data (such as name, address, email address, or telephone number) is collected on these pages, this is always done on a voluntary basis whenever possible. This is the case, for example, when you send us an email, request information material, or contact us in other ways. We use your personal data to communicate with you and to process your request. These data will not be passed on to third parties without your explicit consent.

The processing of personal data is always carried out in accordance with the General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR) and in compliance with the country-specific data protection regulations applicable to our company.

Internet-based data transmissions can generally have security gaps, so absolute protection cannot be guaranteed. For this reason, you are free to transmit personal data to us via alternative means, such as by telephone.

Through this privacy policy, we aim to inform the public about the type, scope, and purpose of the personal data we collect, use, and process. Furthermore, affected individuals are informed of their rights under this privacy policy.

3. Contact Options

Our website contains information that enables quick electronic contact and direct communication with us, including a general address for so-called electronic mail (email address). If you contact us via email or a contact form, the personal data you provide will be automatically stored. Such personal data transmitted to us on a voluntary basis will be stored for the purpose of processing the request or contacting the affected person and for any follow-up questions.

4. Information and Modification of Your Data

You can request information about your personal data processed by us. Upon written request, we will inform you about the data stored about you. If your information is not (or is no longer) correct, you can request a correction. If your data is incomplete, you can request completion. If we have shared your information with third parties (with your permission or due to legal regulations), we will inform these third parties.

5. Right to Object; Deletion of Personal Data; Complaint

You can object to the use and processing of your personal data at any time with effect for the future by informal notification to the provided address. The stored personal data will be deleted if you object to its use or if the purpose of the data collection has been fulfilled, provided there are no legal, regulatory, or contractual retention obligations. If such obligations exist, your data will be initially blocked for further use and deleted after the retention periods expire. You also have the right to lodge a complaint with the relevant data protection supervisory authority.

6. Right to Data Portability

You have the right to have data that we process based on your consent or in fulfillment of a contract automatically handed over to you or to a third party in a common, machine-readable format. If you request the direct transfer of the data to another responsible party, this will only be done if technically feasible.

7. Cookies

Our websites sometimes use so-called cookies. Cookies do not harm your computer and do not contain viruses. Cookies serve to make our offering more user-friendly, effective, and secure. Cookies are small text files that are stored on your computer and saved by your browser.

Most of the cookies we use are so-called "session cookies." They are automatically deleted after your visit. Other cookies remain on your device until you delete them. These cookies enable us to recognize your browser the next time you visit. For example, previously made settings can be considered again. We do not combine the data stored in the cookies with other data that allows us to establish a connection to your person.

You can set your browser to inform you about the setting of cookies and only allow cookies in individual cases, exclude the acceptance of cookies for specific cases or generally, and activate the automatic deletion of cookies when closing the browser. Information on this can be obtained via the help function of your web browser (e.g., Microsoft Internet Explorer, Edge, Firefox, or Safari). When cookies are deactivated, the functionality of this website may be limited.

Consent with Borlabs Cookie

Our website uses the Borlabs consent technology to obtain your consent to the storage of certain cookies in your browser or for the use of certain technologies and for their data privacy protection compliant documentation. The provider of this technology is Borlabs - Benjamin A. Bornschein, Rübenkamp 32, 22305 Hamburg, Germany (hereinafter referred to as Borlabs).

Whenever you visit our website, a Borlabs cookie will be stored in your browser, which archives any declarations or revocations of consent you have entered. These data are not shared with the provider of the Borlabs technology.

The recorded data shall remain archived until you ask us to eradicate them, delete the Borlabs cookie on your own or the purpose of storing the data no longer exists. This shall be without prejudice to any retention obligations mandated by law. To review the details of Borlabs’ data processing policies, please visit https://de.borlabs.io/kb/welche-daten-speichert-borlabs-cookie/

We use the Borlabs cookie consent technology to obtain the declarations of consent mandated by law for the use of cookies. The legal basis for the use of such cookies is Art. 6(1)(c) GDPR.

8. Other Services (e.g., Additional Social Media Plugins, Tracking, etc.)

This website may integrate videos from YouTube. The operator of the pages is Google Ireland Limited ("Google"), Gordon House, Barrow Street, Dublin 4, Ireland.

We use YouTube in enhanced data protection mode. According to YouTube, this mode ensures that YouTube does not store any information about visitors to this website before they watch the video. However, the transfer of data to YouTube partners is not necessarily excluded by the enhanced data protection mode. Thus, YouTube establishes a connection to the Google DoubleClick network regardless of whether you watch a video.

As soon as you start a YouTube video on this website, a connection to YouTube's servers is established. The YouTube server is informed about which of our pages you have visited. If you are logged in to your YouTube account, you enable YouTube to directly associate your browsing behavior with your personal profile. You can prevent this by logging out of your YouTube account.

Furthermore, YouTube may store various cookies on your device after starting a video or use similar recognition technologies (e.g., device fingerprinting). In this way, YouTube can obtain information about visitors to this website. This information is used, among other things, to collect video statistics, improve user-friendliness, and prevent fraud attempts.

Additional data processing operations may be triggered after the start of a YouTube video, over which we have no control.

The use of YouTube is in the interest of an appealing presentation of our online offers. This constitutes a legitimate interest pursuant to Art. 6(1)(f) GDPR. If a corresponding consent has been requested, processing will take place exclusively on the basis of Art. 6(1)(a) GDPR; the consent can be revoked at any time.

Further information on data protection at YouTube can be found in their privacy policy at https://policies.google.com/privacy?hl=en.

We do not use any other services, such as Piwik or tracking services. Likewise, we do not use other social media plugins, web fonts, or Typekit.

9. SSL Encryption

This site uses SSL encryption for security reasons and to protect the transmission of confidential content, such as inquiries you send to us as the site operator. You can recognize an encrypted connection by the address line of the browser changing from "http://" to "https://" and the lock symbol in your browser line.

If SSL encryption is activated, the data you transmit to us cannot be read by third parties.

10. Legal or Contractual Provisions for Providing Personal Data; Necessity for Contract Conclusion; Obligation of the Data Subject to Provide Personal Data; Possible Consequences of Non-Provision

The provision of personal data is partly required by law (e.g., tax regulations) or may also result from contractual regulations (e.g., information about the contracting party). Sometimes it may be necessary for the conclusion of a contract that a data subject provides us with personal data, which must subsequently be processed by us. For example, the data subject is obliged to provide us with personal data when our company concludes a contract with them. Failure to provide the personal data would result in the contract with the data subject not being concluded.

11. Subscription to Our Email Newsletter

If you subscribe to our email newsletter, we will regularly send you information about our offers and events, as well as inspiration and resources on topics such as design, branding, business, entrepreneurship, well-being, and essential oils.

Mandatory information for sending the newsletter includes your email address and your first name, so that we can address you more personally in our emails.

We use the so-called double opt-in procedure for sending the newsletter. This means that we will only send you an email newsletter if you have expressly confirmed that you consent to the newsletter being sent. By activating the confirmation link, you give us your consent to use your personal data in accordance with Art. 6(1)(a) GDPR.

You can unsubscribe from the newsletter at any time via the link provided in the newsletter or by notifying us accordingly. After unsubscribing, your email address will be immediately deleted from our newsletter distribution list. Data stored by us for other purposes remain unaffected.

The newsletter is sent via the email marketing platform provider "Flodesk," based in the USA. You can view the data protection regulations of the service provider here. Your email address and first name are stored on Flodesk's servers in the USA. Flodesk uses this information to send and evaluate the newsletter on our behalf.

The service provider is used based on our legitimate interests pursuant to Art. 6(1)(f) GDPR.

The service provider may use the data of recipients in pseudonymous form, i.e., without assigning it to a user, to optimize or improve its own services, e.g., for technical optimization of the dispatch and presentation of the newsletters or for statistical purposes. However, the service provider does not use the data of our newsletter recipients to contact them directly or to pass the data on to third parties.

Through small, "invisible" files (beacons) sent with the newsletter, various evaluations can be made to improve our offers. In the process, IP address, browser, and the time of retrieval and opening of the newsletter, as well as the click behavior on links contained in the newsletter, are recorded and statistically evaluated.

12. External Links

Our website contains links to third-party websites or other websites under our responsibility. If you follow a link to any of these websites (which are outside our control), please note that these websites have their own privacy policies, and we do not accept any responsibility or liability for these policies. Please review these privacy policies before you voluntarily provide personal data to these websites. External links are marked with this symbol: ↗

Only when you click on an external link will data be transferred to the target link. This is technically necessary due to the underlying protocol of the internet (TCP/IP - Transfer Control Protocol + IP - Internet Protocol). The transferred data includes, in particular: your IP address, the time when you clicked the link, the page on which you clicked the link, as well as other information.

Individual links may involve a data transfer to non-European countries. This could mean that foreign third parties, authorities, or intelligence services receive connection data. If you do not want the mentioned data to be transferred to the link destination or to the mentioned third parties or intercepted by others, do not click the link.

13. Changes to Our Privacy Policy

We reserve the right to change our security and data protection measures if necessary due to technical developments. In such cases, we will also adapt our data protection notices accordingly. Therefore, please take note of the current version of our privacy policy.
