General information on data processing

We, Wöllhaf Retail GmbH, take the protection of your personal data very seriously and strictly adhere to the rules of the data protection laws. The trust of our customers is important to us. Protecting customer data and using it only in the way our customers expect from us is our highest priority. Therefore, it goes without saying that we comply with the legal provisions on data protection. Furthermore, it is important to us that you always know when we store which data and how we use them. We treat your data confidentially according to the EU General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR) and the Telemediengesetz.

Since this data enjoys special protection, it is only collected by us to the extent technically necessary.

The following statement gives you an overview of how we guarantee this protection, what information is collected during your visit to our website and for what purpose this data is used.

We will collect, process and store your personal data exclusively for processing inquiries and, if necessary, for processing orders / contracts. Only if you have given your consent separately in advance will your data also be used for further, precisely defined purposes.

The use of our website is generally possible without providing personal data. As far as on our sides personal data (for example name, address or e-mail addresses) are raised, this takes place, as far as possible, always on voluntary basis.

In addition, we will use this data for occasional offers to you to inform you about new products or services and other services that may be of interest to you.

You are of course entitled to object to this use of your data at any time.
