3. Extent and purpose of the processing of personal data

3.1 Accessing the website

When you access this website: www.bstn.com, the internet browser used by the visitor automatically sends data to the server of this website and stores it in a log file. Until the automatic erasure, the following data is stored without further input by the visitor:

- IP address of the visitor’s device,
- Date and time of visitor access,
- Name and URL of the page accessed by the visitor,
- Website from which the visitor arrived at the website (so-called referrer URL),
- Browser and operating system of the visitor’s device, as well as the name of the access provider used by the visitor.

The processing of such personal data is in accordance with Art. 6 (1), sentence 1 lit f) of the GDPR. The company has a legitimate interest in data processing for the purpose of:

- Rapidly connecting to the website of the company,
- Enabling user-friendly use of the website,
- Identifying and ensuring the security and stability of the systems and
- Facilitating and improving the administration of the website.

3.2 Data collection during registration and payment processing

For the purposes of registration and payment processing, data such as the object of purchase, shopping basket, name, date of birth, address, email address, delivery address, payment type, and bank data is collected and processed by us, insofar as the processing is necessary for the performance of the contract or if the customer has consented to the processing.
The legal basis for the processing of personal data is Art. 6 (1), Sentence 1, lits a) and b) GDPR.

If desired by the customer, he can create a customer account for future orders (registration). In doing so, his customer data will be stored for use also for future orders in our online store, so that he does not have to enter them again. Registration also requires the provision of a user ID and password (access data) so that only he can log into his customer account. We may process the customer's data provided during registration in accordance with Art. 6 (1) b) DSGVO, provided that this is necessary for the establishment or fulfillment of a contract. Furthermore, we are allowed to process the data according to Art. 6 para. 1 f) DSGVO, as we would like to simplify future orders of the customer. Deletion of the customer account is possible at any time.
 
For this purpose, based on the customer's consent pursuant to Art. 6 (1) sentence 1 a) DSGVO, we are permitted to store the goods and products placed in the customer's shopping cart. We store and use this data to remind the customer of his selection of the product by e-mail if the purchase process is not completed. This is in the interest of the customer, as it may be that there is only a limited number of the product in the selected size.
 
In addition, according to § 7 para 3 UWG, we are allowed to use the e-mail address provided by the customer during the purchase for direct advertising for our own similar goods. If the customer no longer wishes to receive such direct advertising, he can object to its use at any time without incurring any costs other than the transmission costs according to the prime rates. The revocation can be made directly via the link provided in the advertising e-mail or by sending an e-mail to [email protected].

3.3 Contact form

Visitors can submit messages to the company via an online contact form on the website. In order to be able to receive an answer, at least a valid email address is required. All other information can be voluntarily provided to the person making the request. By sending the message via the contact form, the visitor agrees to the processing of the transmitted personal data. The data is processed exclusively for the purpose of processing and responding to requests via the contact form. This will be done on the basis of the voluntarily granted consent pursuant to Art. 6(1), sentence 1, lit a) GDPR. The personal data collected for the use of the contact form is automatically deleted once the request has been completed and there are no grounds for further storage.

3.4 Newsletter

We offer our newsletter to persons with a minimum age of 16. If he/she subscribes to the newsletter, the visitor expressly agrees to the processing of the personal data provided. We use the so-called double opt-in procedure for the subscription to our newsletter. This means that after your registration, we will send an e-mail to the specified e-mail address in which we ask you to confirm that you want to receive the newsletter. Furthermore, we will always store the IP addresses used and the time of the registration and confirmation. This serves as a means of proof of your subscription and, if applicable, to solve any potential misuse of your personal data.
Mandatory information for sending the newsletter is your e-mail address. More, separately marked data can be specified voluntarily and will only be used to address you personally. If you have consented to the receipt of our newsletter, which is adjusted to your individual interests, we particularly process your e-mail address and your name for the purpose of sending the newsletter.
With your consent, we will record your user behaviour on our website. This evaluation of user behaviour includes in particular, which areas of the applicable website you visit, and what links you activate there. This creates personalised user profiles assigned to your person and/or email address, to better align any potential advertising campaigns, particularly in the form of newsletters and on-site advertisements, with your personal interests, and to improve the web content.

The legal basis for processing the personal data of the visitor for the purpose of sending newsletters is consent pursuant to Art. 6(1), sentence 1, lit a) GDPR.

The visitor can unsubscribe from the newsletter at any time This can be done by using a special link at the end of the newsletter or by a relevant e-mail message to [email protected] (without costs other than the transmission costs according to the base rates).

We use the service of Emarsys eMarketing Systems AG, Märzstrasse 1, A-1150 Vienna for processing the newsletter. For this purpose, your e-mail address is transmitted to Emarsys. We use the Emarsys Predict analysis tool for the composition of our individual e-mail newsletter, which evaluates both your use of the newsletter and your use of our website. In order to record your usage behaviour on our website, cookies are used to recognise your browser. Your movements on our website can thus be traced, and the success of specific marketing measures can be recorded and measured. Moreover, our newsletters may contain hyperlinks (“links”) that include random, but distinct identification numbers. These identification numbers can be collected and stored when these links are accessed by your computer. We also use the information on such access to trace the use of the newsletter and our website and to measure the success of specific marketing measures. We can thus adjust our offers to your individual requirements and interests.

Emarsys can use the recipients’ data in a pseudonymous form, i.e. without allocation to a user, for optimising or improving its own services, e.g. for the technical optimisation of the dispatch and the presentation of the newsletter, or for statistical purposes. However, Emarsys is not permitted to use the data to contact you itself or to pass on the data to third parties.

For this purpose, based on the customer's consent pursuant to Art. 6 (1) sentence 1 a) DSGVO, we are permitted to store the goods and products that are placed in the customer's shopping cart. We store and use this data to remind the customer of his selection of the product by e-mail if the purchase process is not completed. This is in the interest of the customer, as it may be that there is only a limited number of the product in the selected size.

The legal basis for the processing of data after subscription to the newsletter by the user is your consent according to point (a) of Article 6(1) GDPR.

Further information on Emarsys’ Privacy Policy: https://www.emarsys.com/de/datenschutzrichtlinie/

You can revoke your consent for the newsletter at any time as described above.

3.5 WhatsApp Newsletter

If you subscribe to our WhatsApp newsletter and provide us with your personal data (mobile phone number), you will receive WhatsApp messages from us containing advertising content (see details below) to the phone number you provided. To use the newsletter, an active WhatsApp account is required. To complete the newsletter registration, you must subscribe to the newsletter in WhatsApp by sending the start message ("Start") and providing your consent there. For this purpose, we use your profile information on WhatsApp, phone number, IP address, and message history.
 
The advertising content sent as part of newsletters or other messages includes information about products, offers, trends, promotions, current campaigns, and other marketing campaign-related information, market research, and customer satisfaction surveys. We also send you advertisements tailored to your individual interests. If you are already a BSTN customer, we consider your previous purchasing behavior and other relevant information (information about the type and quantity of goods you have purchased, the purchase price, and the time of purchase, as well as data on participation in contests and redemption of vouchers, and other personal data you provide us within the contractual relationship) to tailor the advertising to your needs. The processing of your data for these purposes is automated with the aim of evaluating certain personal aspects. We use mathematical-statistical methods to align advertisements with your individual interests. The data provided during the newsletter registration will be linked to your customer information in this case. As a result, you will receive a personalized newsletter tailored to your individual interests.
 
When the newsletter is sent, your user behavior is evaluated. For this purpose, only the information already provided by WhatsApp within the service is used (mobile phone number, times of sending and receiving messages, delivery status (received, error, etc.)). Availability information is not collected. This allows us to track when you read our newsletters. This enables us to evaluate the reach of newsletters and provide information that meets your needs even more precisely.
 
For the provision of the WhatsApp newsletter, we work with MessengerPeople GmbH, Seidlstraße 8, 80335 München, as a technical service provider. Through MessengerPeople, we receive the messages you send us via WhatsApp and can send messages to you via WhatsApp.
 
Your personal data processed during the newsletter delivery will only be stored until you unsubscribe from the newsletter. You can unsubscribe by replying with "Stop" in WhatsApp, for example. If you unsubscribe, your personal data for newsletter delivery will be immediately deleted. However, please note that after unsubscribing from the newsletter, you will no longer receive vouchers and personalized offers from us.

8.1 Right to confirmation

Each data subject shall have the right granted by the European directives and regulators to obtain confirmation from the controller as to whether or not personal data concerning him or her is being processed. If a data subject wishes to avail himself or herself of this right of confirmation, he or she may, at any time, contact an employee of the controller.

8.2 Information

You can request information from us about whether your personal data is processed by us. The right to information is excluded if the data is only stored because it may not be deleted due to legal or statutory retention periods or is stored exclusively for the purpose of data backup or data protection control, provided that the exchange of information would incur disproportionately high costs and processing for other purposes by suitable technical and organisational measures is ruled out. If in your case the right of access to information is not excluded and your personal data is processed by us, you can request disclosure from us about the following information:
Purposes of the processing,
Categories of the personal data about you that is processed,
Recipients or categories of recipients to whom the personal data has been or will be disclosed, in particular recipients in third countries or international organizations,

The existence of the right to lodge a complaint with a supervisory authority,
If the personal data was not collected from you as the data subject, the available information on the origin of the data,
Or where applicable, the existence of automated decision-making, including profiling and meaningful information about the logic involved and also the scope and desired impact of the automated decision-making,
Where applicable, in case of the transmission to recipients in third countries, provided that there is no decision of the EU Commission regarding the adequacy of the level of protection according to Art. 45(3) of the GDPR, information about which appropriate guarantees pursuant to Art. 46(2) GDPR have been provided for the protection of personal data.

8.3 Rectification and completion

If you determine that we may hold inaccurate personal data about you, you can request immediate correction of this incorrect data. In the case of incomplete personal data, you may request completion.

8.4 Erasure

You have a right to erasure ("Right to be forgotten"), insofar as the processing is not required to exercise the right to freedom of expression, the right to information or for the fulfillment of a legal obligation or for the performance of a task carried out in the public interest, and one of the following reasons applies:
The personal data is no longer necessary for the purposes for which it was processed.
The basis of the justification for the processing was exclusively your consent, which you have withdrawn.
You have objected to the processing of your personal data, which we have made publicly available.
You have objected to the processing of personal data not made publicly available by us and there are no overriding legitimate grounds for the processing.
Your personal data has been processed unlawfully.
The erasure of the personal data is required to comply with a legal obligation, to which we are subject.
No claim for erasure exists if, in the event of legitimate non-automated data processing, due to the specific nature of the storage, it is not possible or only with disproportionately high expense and your interest in the erasure is minimal. In this case, limitation of processing shall replace erasure.

8.5 Limitation of processing

You can request limitation of processing from us, if one of the following reasons applies:
You dispute the accuracy of the personal data. In this case, the limitation may be required for the time needed for us to check the accuracy of the data.

You have presented an objection according to Art. 21(1) of the GDPR. The limitation of processing may be extended for as long as it remains to be decided whether our legitimate reasons outweigh your reasons.
Limitation of processing means the personal data may be processed only with your consent or for the purpose of asserting, exercising or defending legal claims or protecting the rights of another natural or legal person or on the grounds of an important public interest. We have a duty to inform you before we remove the limitation.

8.6 Data portability

You have a right to data portability provided that the processing is based on your consent (Art. 6(1), sentence 1, lit a) or Art. 9(2) lit a) GDPR) or is based on an agreement of which you are a contracting party and the processing is performed using automated procedures. The right to data portability in this case includes the following rights, provided this does not affect the rights and freedoms of others: You can ask us to keep the personal data you have provided to us, in a structured, consistent and machine-readable format. You have the right to transfer this data to another controller without hindrance on our part. As far as is technically feasible, you can demand from us that we transfer your personal data directly to another controller.

This also applies to profiling pursuant to Art. 6(1), sentence 1 lit e) or lit f) of the GDPR. After you exercise the right of objection, we will stop processing your personal data, unless we can prove there are compelling legitimate reasons for the processing, which outweigh your interests, rights and freedoms, or that the processing serves the purpose of asserting, exercising or defending legal claims.
You can object at any time to the processing of your personal data for direct marketing purposes. This also applies to profiling in connection with such direct marketing. Once this right is exercised, we will no longer use the relevant personal data for direct marketing purposes.
You have the option of communicating your objection informally by phone, email or to our company postal address listed at the beginning of this privacy policy.

8.8 Withdrawal of consent

You have the right to withdraw, with future effect, your consent at any time. The withdrawal of consent can be communicated informally by phone, email or to our postal address.
