Google Analytics
Our website uses Google Analytics, a web analytics service provided by Google, Inc. (https://www.google.com/intl/en/about/) (1600 Amphitheater Parkway, Mountain View, CA 94043, USA, hereafter “Google”). The processing of data serves to analyse this website and its visitors. Google will use this information on behalf of the operator of this website to evaluate your use of the website, to compile reports on website activity and to provide other services to the website operator relating to website and internet use. The IP address communicated by your browser as part of Google Analytics is not associated with any other data held by Google.
Google Analytics uses cookies, which make it possible to analyze your use of the website. The information generated by the cookie regarding your use of this website (incl. your IP address) is usually transferred to a Google server in the United States and stored there.
Google will use this information to evaluate your use of the website, compiling reports on website activity for website operators and providing other services related to website activity.

IP Anonymisation
IP anonymisation is activated on this website. Google uses this to shorten your IP address beforehand within Member States of the European Union or in other signatories to the Agreement on the European Economic Area. Only in exceptional cases will the full IP address be transferred to a Google server in the USA and shortened there.

Google Tag Manager
This website uses Google Tag Manager. Google Tag Manager is a solution operated by Google LLC. 1600 Amphitheatre Parkway, Mountain View, CA 94043, USA (“Google”) that allows marketed website tags to be managed using an interface. The Tag Manager tool itself (which implements the tags) is a cookie-less domain and does not register personal data. The tool causes other tags to be activated which may, for their part, register data under certain circumstances. Google Tag Manager does not access this information. If recording has been deactivated on domain or cookie level, this setting will remain in place for all tracking tags implemented with Google Tag Manager.
Newsletter
Our website offers a newsletter which keeps you informed about current events and special offers. If you would like to receive the newsletter, we need a valid e-mail address from you. We use this data exclusively for sending the requested information and do not pass it on to third parties.
You may revoke your prior consent to receive this newsletter with future effect at any time. All you have to do is inform us that you are revoking your consent or click on the unsubscribe link contained in each newsletter. After your revocation, your personal data will be deleted.
Comments Function (Product Ratings)
Within this website’s comment function, not only your comment but also information about the time the comment was created and the name of the commentator you have chosen are stored and published on the website. Furthermore, your IP address is logged and stored. This IP address is stored for security reasons and in the event that the person concerned violates the rights of third parties or posts illegal content by submitting a comment. We need your e mail address to contact you if a third party should object to your published content as unlawful. The legal basis for the storage of your data is Art. 6 para. 1 lit.b and f GDPR. We reserve the right to delete comments if they are objected to as unlawful by third parties.
Sending of Rating Reminders by Trusted Shops via Email
If, when or after placing your order, you have given us your express consent to doing so according to art. 6 (1) 1 lit a GDPR, we will disclose your e-mail address to Trusted Shops GmbH, Subbelrather Str. 15c, 50823 Cologne, Germany (www.trustedshops.com), so that they can email you a rating reminder.
You may revoke your consent at any time by sending a message to the contact option specified below or directly to Trusted Shops.
Integration of the Trusted Shops Trustbadge
We have integrated the Trusted Shops Trustbadge on this website in order to display our Trusted Shops Trustmark and offer the Trusted Shops products to customers after placing an order.
This serves the protection of our legitimate interests in the optimal marketing of our offer according to art. 6 (1) 1 lit f GDPR that are overriding in the process of balancing of interests. The Trustbadge and the advertised trust badge services are offered by Trusted Shops GmbH, Subbelrather Str. 15C, 50823 Cologne, Germany.
With every use of the Trustbadge, the web server automatically saves a so-called server log file which contains e.g. your IP address, the date and time of the request, the volume of data transferred and the requesting provider (access data), and documents the request. Those access data are not analysed and are automatically overwritten no later than seven days after the end of your website visit.
Other personal data are transferred to Trusted Shops only if you decide to use or have already registered to use Trusted Shops products after placing an order. In such a case, the contract concluded between you and Trusted Shops applies.
SSL Encryption
For security reasons and to protect the transmission of sensitive content, such as the requests you send to us as the website operator, we use SLL encryption. You can recognize an encrypted connection by the address line of the browser changing from "http://" to "https://" and the symbol of a lock in your browser line.
If an SSL encryption is enabled, the data you submit to us cannot be read by third parties.
Right of Information, Rectification, Erasure, and Blocking
You always have the right of information (free of charge) concerning your personal data stored, their source and their recipients, as well as the purpose of the data processing. Moreover, you have the right of rectification, blocking or erasure of these data.
For further information or questions concerning the topic of personal data, you may contact us at any time via email to the following email-address: datenschutz@meyerundkuhl.de
Prohibition against Unsolicited Advertising Mails / Spam Mails
The use of contact data published by third parties for sending not expressly requested advertisements and information within the scope of the obligation under German law to provide publication details in a Legal notice on the Internet is hereby expressively prohibited. The operators of the websites expressly reserve the right to take legal measures in case of unsolicited promotional information, such as spam emails.
Liability for external links
Our service offers include links to external third party websites, whose content we are not responsible for. Therefore, we cannot assume liability for these third party contents. The provider or operator of the hyperlinked websites are to be held responsible for their content. Any linked website was reviewed and checked for violations against the law upon linkage, however, none were apparent at that time. A permanent monitoring of linked third party content without specific indications of any infringement is not within reason. Upon becoming aware of any third party violations of law on their website, we will immediately remove any such links.
