Byodo Naturkost GmbH, hereinafter referred to as “we” for simplicity’s sake, has the utmost respect for your privacy. As such, we take the protection of your personal data, for example your name, date of birth, address, e-mail address, telephone no., etc., very seriously. This data protection notice regulates the collection, processing and use of your personal data, if and insofar as they are required for the use of our website. When handling these data, we adhere strictly to the pertinent statutory data protection regulations as well as the following principles.
By confirming your agreement with the data protection principles when using our websites, especially with regard to the placing of orders, subscription to our newsletter and filling in of our contact forms, you expressly consent to the use of your personal data and instruct us to do so in the manner prescribed by said data protection principles. The following data protection principles and the public directory (only available in German) describe in detail how we collect and use this information.
We only save personal data to the extent necessary to provide a functional website as well as our content and services. Our users’ personal data are only processed for the performance of the offered services (for example for the provision of quotes and advice, execution of contracts, establishing contact and asking of follow-up questions) insofar as such processing is necessary. No personal data are collected automatically.
Our users’ personal data are only processed regularly with the user’s consent. An exception applies in such cases where it is not possible to obtain consent beforehand for reasons of fact and where statutory provisions permit data processing.
To the extent that we obtain the consent of the data subjects for personal data processing operations, the legal basis is Art. 6 para. 1 lit. a of the EU General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR).
Where the processing of personal data is necessary for the performance of a contract to which the data subject is party, the legal basis is Art. 6 para. 1 lit. b of the GDPR. This also applies to processing operations required to take steps prior to entering into a contract.
To the extent that the processing of personal data is necessary for compliance with a legal obligation to which our company is subject, the legal basis is Art. 6 para. 1 lit. c of the GDPR.
The personal data of the contracting partner are generally collected in the scope of conclusion of a contract for the services offered in our online shop. Insofar as the processing of the data is required for conclusion of the contract, the permissive rule for the data processing is Art. 6 para. 1 lit. b of the GDPR. If the processing is necessary for the purposes of legitimate interests of our company or a third party, except where such interests are overridden by the interest or fundamental rights and freedoms of the data subject, the legal basis for processing is Art. 6 para. 1 lit. f of the GDPR.
As a matter of principle, the data are deleted as soon as the purpose for which they were collected no longer applies. To the extent necessary, we process your personal data for the entire duration of the business relationship (from initiation to conclusion and execution of a contract) and additionally in accordance with the legally prescribed storage and documentation requirements as per, for example, the German Fiscal Code (AO) and other statutory provisions.
This information is all documented without any personal association or IP addresses and is used for statistical evaluation purposes only. The data are utilised to make our websites more user-friendly and improve the offering accordingly. The legal basis for the temporary storage of the data is Art. 6 para. 1 lit. f of the GDPR.
The collection of the data for provision of the website and the storage of said data in log files is absolutely essential for proper operation of the website. Therefore, there is no opt-out option available to the user.
The personal data you make available are secured by technical and organisational security measures to ensure that they cannot be accessed by unauthorised third parties.
If you send us an e-mail, your e-mail address is employed exclusively for the subsequent correspondence with you. We would like to draw your attention to the fact that information sent unencrypted via e-mail can theoretically be viewed without authorisation. For this reason, we cannot provide a guarantee for the confidentiality of this data transfer. If you are sending particularly sensitive data or information, it is thus recommendable to do so by post.
If you wish to send us an e-mail with content requiring protection, e.g., a job application, we urgently recommend encrypting the attachments (CV, certificates, etc.) in order to prevent unauthorised attention and falsification occurring during the transfer. To this end, please contact the individual named in the respective job description.
We do not provide data to third parties without your consent unless this is also explicitly permitted by law or subject to a judicial or official ruling. In the scope of contract conclusions (online business), personal data are provided to service providers (e.g., delivery companies, logistics companies) for the proper execution of the contract.
In the scope of our business, you are required to make the personal data available which are required for the initiation and performance of said business and that we are legally required to collect. If you do not make these data available, we shall generally be forced to refuse conclusion or execution of the contract or may not be able to continue to execute an existing contract and have to terminate it accordingly.
However, you are not obliged to grant your consent to data processing concerning data which are not relevant and/or required by law or other regulations for the execution of the contract.
These data protection principles may be revised over the course of time if we include additional service offerings and new functions or new legal requirements come into force. We reserve the right to change these data protection principles at any time and publish the revised version on our website. The revised function shall become valid at the time of its publishing on the site.
