Purposes and legal bases of data processing

We use your data to initiate business and to fulfil and process your order. On completion of the contract and full payment, your data will be blocked for further use and deleted after the periods established by tax and commercial law, unless you have expressly consented to the further use of your data. If you subscribe to our newsletter, your email address will be used for promotional purposes until you unsubscribe from the newsletter. You can unsubscribe at any time.

We store your order data and send it to you by email together with the general terms and conditions. You can view the general terms and conditions here. You can view your past orders at any time in our customer area under the menu item "My orders".

If the consent also refers to the processing of special categories of personal data, we will expressly point this out to you in the consent, Art. 88 Para. 1 EU GDPR.

Special categories of personal data within the meaning of Art. 9 Para. 1 EU GDPR are only processed if this is required by legal regulations and there is no reason to assume that your legitimate interest in the exclusion of the processing prevails, Art. 88 Para. 1 EU GDPR.

Disclosure to third parties

We will only forward your data to third parties within the framework of legal regulations or with appropriate consent. Otherwise, data will not be forwarded to third parties unless we are obliged to do so by mandatory legal provisions (transfer to external bodies such as supervisory authorities or law enforcement authorities).

Recipients of data / categories of recipients

Within our company, we make sure that only those persons who need your data to fulfil their contractual and legal obligations receive it.

In many cases, service providers support our specialist departments in the areas of shipping, payment, credit assessment, and call centres in carrying out their tasks. The necessary data protection agreements were concluded with all service providers.

Your data is transferred to the delivering shipping company, provided it is necessary for delivery of the goods. We will disclose your payment data to the credit institution dealing with payment in connection with the settlement of payments.

Transfer to a third country / Intention to transfer to a third country

Data will only be transmitted to third countries (outside the European Union or the European Economic Area) if this is necessary for the performance of the contractual obligation, is required by law, or you have given us your consent.

Storage duration for data

We store your data as long as it is needed for the respective processing purpose. Please note that numerous retention periods require that data continue to be (must be) stored. This applies in particular to commercial and tax storage obligations (e.g. the German Commercial Code, Fiscal Code, etc.). If there are no further storage obligations, the data will be routinely deleted once the purpose has been achieved.

In addition, we may retain data if you have given us permission to do so or if legal disputes arise and we use evidence within statutory limitation periods of up to thirty years; the regular limitation period is three years.

How is my data protected from misuse?

We guarantee the security of your data from loss, destruction, access, modification, and distribution of your data by unauthorised persons with current technical and organisational measures. Among other things, we use encryption technology for maximum confidentiality. Your personal data is password-protected which means that only you have access to it. Our servers use various security mechanisms and authorisation procedures to make unauthorised access more difficult. For your security, you should always treat your access information confidentially and close the browser window once you have finished communicating with us.

Secure transmission of your data

At www.sport-tec.com, your data is guaranteed to be secure thanks to state-of-the-art encryption technology!

Data exchange from and to our website is always encrypted. We offer HTTPS as the transmission protocol for our website, in each case using the current encryption protocols. With the help of the WEBSALE Data Security System all orders from the buyer to the shop server are generally transmitted with strong SSL encryption (128 bit / 256 bit) and even Triple-DES encrypted stored on the shop server itself. As a result, they cannot be viewed or changed by unauthorised persons. All order data, from the buyer to booking in the merchandise management system at Sport-Tec, is always completely encrypted, which is also part of WEBSALE's data security system.

After a preliminary check of the card number for formal correctness, the credit card data is not stored temporarily, but is forwarded directly to the respective payment provider in encrypted form. Whether you want to pay by credit card, instant bank transfer, PayPal, cash on delivery, direct debit, or invoice, your order is always in safe hands.

Triple DES

Also called 3DES, there is also multiple encryption based on the Data Encryption Standard (DES). The symmetric encryption algorithm 3DES uses two or three keys and three DES passes.

You can of course cancel your subscription at any time via the unsubscription option provided in the newsletter and thus revoke your consent. Furthermore, it is also possible to unsubscribe directly from the newsletter at any time via our website.
