SANGI Europe GmbH : Privacy Policy

Thank you for your interest in our website. The protection of your privacy is very important to us. The legal basis for data protection hereunder can be found in the German General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR), the German Federal Data Protection Act (BDSG) and the German Telemedia Act (TMG).

Personal data is information that can be used to identify a person, i.e. information that can be traced back to a person. This includes, for example, the person's name, e-mail address or telephone number.

In the following we inform you in detail about our way of handling of your data. „If there are any differences between the German version and this English translation, the German version takes precedence.“

Responsible for the processing of your personal data is:

SANGI Europe GmbH (represented by Managing Director Roslyn Hayman), 
Register: AG Munich, HRB 256774 
Leopoldstrasse 244 
D-80807 Munich, Germany 
(hereinafter "SANGI Europe GmbH" or "we") 
Tel: +49 (0) 89 - 208 039 387 
Fax: +49 (0) 89 - 208 039 388 

Personal data is only collected, used and passed on by us if this is permitted by law or if the user agrees to the same.

1. Data transmission security

2. Storage of access data in server log files

You can visit the web pages of this on-line store without giving any personal information.

In so-called server log files, only access data is stored, such as the name of the requested file, date and time of access, amount of data transferred and requesting provider, Internet Protocol (IP) address, website from which the request originates, browser used, and operating system used. (Legal basis : Art.6 para.1 p.1 lit.f GDPR).

The log files contain IP addresses and other data that allow an assignment to you as a user. This data will not be stored together with other personal data of the user.

These data are analysed exclusively to ensure the trouble-free operation of the site, in particular delivery of the website to the user's computer, and to improve our services. An evaluation of the data for marketing purposes does not take place in this context.

However SANGI Europe GmbH reserves the right to subsequently check the log data if there is a justified suspicion of illegal use based on concrete evidence.

In accordance with Art.6 para.1 lit.b GDPR, we collect your personal data when you voluntarily provide us with this information in the context of your order, when you contact us (e.g. via contact form or e-mail) or when you open a customer account, insofar as this data is required for those purposes. Which data is collected can be seen from the respective input forms. Furthermore, when you send the message entered in the input form, the IP address of the source computer and the date and time of sending will be stored.

In order to fulfill the contract, SANGI Europe GmbH shall pass on your data to the shipping company commissioned with delivery, insofar as this is necessary for the delivery of ordered goods. For the processing of payments, we will pass on the necessary payment data to the credit institution commissioned with the payment and, if applicable, to the payment service provider commissioned by us or to the payment service selected by you during the ordering process. (Legal basis : Art.6 para.1 p.1 lit.b GDPR).

If you provide us with your e-mail address, either in your customer account or in the case of a one-time guest order, we will forward your e-mail address to our logistics partner, so that they can provide you with a link to track your shipment.

Cookies are small text files that are stored on your end device.

To make visiting our website more attractive and to enable the use of certain functions, we use so-called cookies on various pages (e.g. during the ordering process to store the shopping cart or your login information). (See Section 6 below). Some of the cookies we use are deleted after the end of the browser session, i.e. after you close your browser (so-called session cookies). Other cookies remain on your end device to enable us to recognize your browser the next time you visit us (persistent cookies). You can set your browser to inform you when cookies are set and to decide individually whether to accept them or to exclude the acceptance of cookies in certain cases or in general. If you do not accept our cookies, this may affect the functionality of our website.

In the case of a visiting user, no data will be assigned and no data stored, including personal data. However, we reserve the right to use the IP address or other information concerning respective visitors if this is necessary to ensure compliance with guidelines, to protect our services offered via the website, or to comply with legal obligations.

When you visit our website, an information banner informs you about the use of cookies for analysis purposes and refers you to this Privacy Policy statement.

You can find a link to the individual cookie settings at the end of this privacy policy.

So-called social plugins ("plugins") of the social network Facebook and the microblogging service Instagram are used on our website. These services are operated and offered by the company Facebook Ireland Ltd, 4 Grand Canal Square, Dublin 2, Ireland ("Facebook Ltd").

An overview of the Facebook plugins and their appearance can be found here:
https://developers.facebook.com/docs/plugins

An overview of the Instagram buttons and their appearance can be found here:
https://about.instagram.com/blog/announcements/introducing-instagram-badges-for-webpage-embedding

When you call up a page of our website that contains such a plugin, your browser establishes a direct connection to the servers of Facebook Ltd. The content of the plugin is transmitted by Facebook Ltd. directly to your browser and integrated into the page. By integrating the plugins, Facebook Ltd. receives the information that your browser has called up the corresponding page of our website, even if you do not have a proile or are not currently logged in. This information (including your IP address) may also be transmitted by your browser directly to a server of Facebook Inc, 1601 S. California Avenue, Palo Alto, CA 94304, USA, in the USA and stored there. With regard to the USA, the European Court of Justice has determined that this is a country with an insufficient level of data protection. In this context, there is a particular risk that your data will be processed by American institutions / authorities for control and monitoring purposes without you having an adequate legal remedy against this.

You can find out what information Facebook Ltd. receives at https://www.facebook.com/privacy/explanation. If you are logged in to one of the services, Facebook Ltd. can directly assign the visit to our website to your profile on Facebook or Instagram. If you interact with the plugins, for example by clicking the "Like" or "Instagram" button, the corresponding information is also transmitted directly to a server and stored there. The information will also be published on Facebook or your Instagram account and displayed there to your contacts.

The purpose and scope of the data collection and the further processing and use of the data by Facebook Ltd. as well as your rights in this regard and setting options for protecting your privacy can be found in the privacy policy of Facebook Ltd. We have no influence on the nature and scope of the data that the plugins transmit to the servers of Facebook Ltd.

The Facebook privacy policy is available at:
http://www.facebook.com/policy.php

The Instagram privacy policy is available at:
https://help.instagram.com/155833707900388/

If you do not want Facebook Ltd. to directly assign the data collected via our website to your profile in the respective service, you must log out of the respective service before visiting our website and delete any existing cookies from your browser. You can also completely prevent the loading of the plugins with add-ons for your browser, e.g. with the script blocker "NoScript" (http://noscript.net/).

7.1 Google Analytics

This website uses the "Google Analytics" service, which is provided by Google Inc. (1600 Amphitheatre Parkway, Mountain View, CA 94043, USA) to analyse use of the website by people visiting it. The service uses text files called "cookies" (as referred to above), which are stored on your end device. The information collected by the cookies is usually sent to a Google server in the USA and stored there.

IP anonymization is used on this website. The IP address of users is shortened by Google within the member states of the EU and the European Economic Area. Due to this shortening, the personal reference of your IP address is omitted. Within the framework of the Agreement on Commissioned Data, which website operators have concluded with Google Inc., the latter uses the information collected to evaluate website use and website activity and provides services associated with Internet use.

You have the option of preventing cookies from being stored on your end device by selecting the appropriate settings in your browser. If your browser does not allow cookies, there is no guarantee that you will be able to access all functions of this website unrestrictedly.

You can also use a browser plugin to prevent the information collected by cookies (including your IP address) from being sent to and used by Google Inc. The following link will take you to the appropriate plugin: https://tools.google.com/dlpage/gaoptout?hl=de 

Alternatively, by clicking on this link, you can prevent Google Analytics from collecting data about you within this website. By clicking on the link above, you download an "opt-out cookie". Your browser must therefore allow the storage of cookies at least for this purpose. If you delete your cookies regularly, a renewed click on the above link will be necessary each time you visit this website.
