You can rest assured that we will treat any of your personal and business data transmitted to us (be it through this website, by email, phone, fax or in writing) with strict confidentiality. We will only use these data internally to administer your account and fulfil orders or other services you request from us. Third parties will only come in contact with some of your data where absolutely necessary to fulfil your order (like postal couriers and payment providers) or where required by law. If we phone you to take credit card details for payment, these details will not be kept by us. If you have not used our services for a longer period, we will delete your account (we will notify you about this in advance), or you may request at any time to have your account deleted.

Very occasionally, this website may also temporarily use Google Analytics, a web analytics service provided by Google, Inc. (“Google”). Google Analytics uses the cookies ‘_ga’ and ‘_gat’ to help the website analyse in more depth how visitors use the site. The information generated by these cookies about your use of the website will be transmitted to and stored by Google on servers in the United States . Google will use this information for the purpose of evaluating the use of this website, compiling reports on website activity for us and providing other services relating to website activity and internet usage. We use this service with the extension ‘anonymizeIP’ which shortens the IP address of your computer such that any data transmitted to Google can not be personally associated with you. If you still don’t agree with the transmission of these data to Google, you can install a Browser-Plugin which deactivates Google Analytics in your browser (for more details see the page Google Analytics Data Privacy).
