The operators of this website take the protection of your personal data very seriously. The confidentiality and integrity of your personal data are of great importance to us. Since the end of May 2018, the EU General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR) has replaced the Federal Data Protection Act (BDSG) and continues to provide strong protection for your personal data. We treat this data confidentially and in accordance with statutory data protection regulations and this privacy policy. Data protection is also a major priority for us within the company. Our staff have been explicitly obliged to maintain confidentiality and secrecy, and to comply with data protection regulations.
The information on this website has been compiled with great care. However, no guarantee can be given as to its accuracy or completeness. For this reason, any liability for any damage arising in connection with the use of this website is excluded. No contractual relationship is established between the user and us through the use of our website

1. Collection of personal data
For the fulfilment of the contract
Personal data, as defined in this privacy policy, refers to specific details regarding your personal or factual circumstances; in other words, any information relating to an identified or identifiable natural person. This includes, in particular, the following in the context of initiating and processing business transactions: your surname and first name, your postal address and place of residence, your landline and mobile numbers, your email address, and further details such as the telephone number and address of your company or organisation, etc. When applying for a cancellable customer account, additional information regarding your bank details will be collected.

The personal data you provide to us during the ordering process is necessary for the conclusion of a contract with us. You are not obliged to provide your personal data. However, without your address, we cannot send you the goods. For some payment methods, we require the necessary payment details in order to pass them on to a payment service provider commissioned by us. The processing of the data you enter during the ordering process is therefore carried out for the purpose of fulfilling the contract.
If you send us an enquiry by email, via a contact form, etc. prior to the conclusion of a contract, we process the data received in this way to carry out pre-contractual measures and, for example, to answer your questions about our products. The legal basis for this processing is Article 6(1)(b) of the GDPR.
PaWorks GmbH collects, processes, stores and passes on personal data only to the extent that this is strictly necessary to fulfil an order and to provide the contractual partner with the requested information and services. Recipients may include: payment service providers, delivery service providers, hosting providers, where applicable, merchandise management systems, and where applicable, suppliers (dropshipping).

Personal data also includes information about your use of our website. In this context, we collect personal data from you as follows: information about your visits to our website, such as the volume of data transferred, the location from which you access data on our website, and other connection data and sources that you access. This is usually done through the use of log files and cookies. Further information on log files and cookies is provided below.
Comments

You have the option to post a comment. Your data (e.g. name/username, email address, website) will then be processed solely for the purpose of publishing your comment.
The legal basis for this processing is Article 6(1)(f) of the GDPR. Our legitimate interest is the public exchange of user opinions on specific topics and products. Publication serves, amongst other things, to promote transparency and the formation of opinions. Your interest in data protection is safeguarded, as you can post your comment under a pseudonym.
No specific retention period is envisaged. You may request the deletion of your comment at any time.

2. Purpose of use
PaWorks GmbH uses your personal data exclusively for the following purposes:
- Trade in specific products relating to ‘humans and animals’
- Operating physical retail outlets and an online shop
- Including all advisory and other services related to the aforementioned activities
- Services and consultancy for affiliated companies
- Services and consultancy for franchisees
- Sending out newsletters on request
- Information by post, email or telephone regarding potential new products, services, etc.; that is, for our own marketing purposes.
- Processing of incoming job applications as part of general human resources management
- General processing as part of human resources management
A data erasure policy for the various categories of personal data has been developed in accordance with statutory requirements and implemented accordingly.

3. Disclosure of your personal data
PaWorks GmbH will only disclose personal data to the extent strictly necessary to fulfil an order and to be able to provide the contractual partner with the requested information and services.
In some cases, we use service modules that make data available to the respective customer on our behalf. The service module providers (Net Inventors GmbH, Mario Maeles, Wrike) are independent companies and are, amongst other things, obliged by us to treat all data as strictly confidential; they are also prohibited from processing the data for any purposes other than those agreed. Each user can only view their own data or information relating to their own order history via a state-of-the-art login system.
Furthermore, our company does not pass on your personal data to third parties unless you have expressly consented to such data transfer or we are obliged to do so on the basis of legal provisions and/or official orders. Nor do we sell your data to third parties, nor do we market it in any other way.

4. Credit checks
Credit checks are usually carried out via PayPal.

Automated decision-making in individual cases, including profiling

You have the right not to be subject to a decision based solely on automated processing – including profiling – which produces legal effects concerning you or similarly significantly affects you.
This does not apply if the decision
(1) is necessary for the conclusion or performance of a contract between you and us,
(2) is authorised by Union or Member State legislation to which we are subject, and that legislation provides for appropriate measures to safeguard your rights and freedoms as well as your legitimate interests; or
(3) is made with your explicit consent.
However, such decisions must not be based on special categories of personal data as referred to in Article 9(1) of the GDPR, unless Article 9(2)(a) or (g) applies and appropriate measures have been taken to safeguard your rights and freedoms as well as your legitimate interests.
With regard to the cases referred to in (1) and (3), we shall take appropriate measures to safeguard your rights and freedoms as well as your legitimate interests.

5. Your rights
In addition to the right to withdraw the consent you have given to us, you are entitled to the following further rights, provided the relevant legal requirements are met:
a) The right to access your personal data held by us in accordance with Article 15 of the GDPR; in particular, you may request information regarding the purposes of processing, the categories of personal data, the categories of recipients to whom your data has been or will be disclosed, the intended period of storage, and the source of your data, provided that it was not collected directly from you,
b) The right to have inaccurate data rectified or accurate data completed in accordance with Article 16 of the GDPR,
c) the right to erasure of your data stored by us in accordance with Article 17 of the GDPR, provided that there are no statutory or contractual retention periods or other legal obligations or rights requiring further storage, 

d) the right to restriction of processing of your data in accordance with Article 18 of the GDPR
e) the right to data portability in accordance with Article 20 of the GDPR, i.e. the right to receive data you have provided in a commonly used, machine-readable format, or to request that it be transferred to another controller
f) Right to lodge a complaint with a supervisory authority. As a rule, you may contact the supervisory authority for your usual place of residence or for our company’s registered office.
Should you have any questions, comments or enquiries regarding the collection, processing and use of your personal data by PaWorks GmbH, please also contact us using the contact details provided above.

6. Right to object
You may withdraw your consent to the storage of your data at any time. To do so, please use our direct email address info@dogstyler.de or write us a brief message and send it by post.

Upon receipt of your objection or withdrawal, PaWorks GmbH will no longer use your contractual partner’s data for its own marketing purposes and will cease sending promotional material. Please note that the complete deletion of customer data (following the completion of an order or contract) is only possible once the statutory retention periods under tax and commercial law have expired. The blocking of data for the purposes of customer service remains unaffected by this.

7. Right to lodge a complaint with the supervisory authority
You have the right to lodge a complaint with the data protection authority (see point 5). To do so, you may contact the authority responsible for your place of residence or federal state. For illustrative purposes only, the address of the State Data Protection Commissioner in North Rhine-Westphalia is provided here:

8. Changes to this Privacy Policy
PaWorks GmbH reserves the right to amend this privacy policy at any time with future effect. The latest version is available on our website. Please visit the website regularly to keep up to date with the applicable privacy policy.

9. Means of communication
We protect our website and other systems against the loss, destruction, unauthorised access, alteration or disclosure of your data by unauthorised persons through technical and organisational measures. In particular, your personal data is transmitted to us in encrypted form. We use the SSL (Secure Socket Layer) encryption system for this purpose.

The use of communication channels, such as messaging services, must be considered in the overall context of data protection principles until the data protection authorities have reached a final decision regarding their scope and use, and will be adjusted in due course. In light of recent developments, we would like to take this opportunity to address the increasingly widespread use of WhatsApp in particular:

Privacy Policy regarding the use of WhatsApp
The Terms of Service and Privacy Policy of WhatsApp (Facebook, 1601 South California Avenue, Palo Alto, CA 94304, USA) apply. The exchange of information with PaWorks GmbH via WhatsApp is intended solely for general, non-legal information purposes and does not in any way replace a face-to-face consultation. Enquiries relating to personal data or accounts cannot be answered via this channel.

No legally binding declarations are made via this medium, nor can they be accepted by PaWorks GmbH. Please understand that, for security reasons, we are therefore unable to accept any legally binding orders or declarations via this communication channel.

We would like to draw your attention to the fact that data is stored on servers belonging to WhatsApp Inc., which are not subject to European data protection law; in other words, the processing of personal data takes place in countries outside the scope of Directive 95/46/EC. Confidentiality and data security may not be guaranteed on WhatsApp. PaWorks GmbH accepts no liability for any damage arising from the use of this platform. By installing and using WhatsApp on your mobile device, you agree to WhatsApp’s terms and conditions, over which PaWorks GmbH has no control. These stipulate, in particular, that you grant WhatsApp Inc. access to your telephone number and the contacts stored on your mobile device.
10. Duration of data retention
We will store your data for as long as is necessary to provide the agreed service.
- We store the data required for contract fulfilment until the expiry of the statutory warranty periods and, where applicable, contractual guarantee periods.
- We retain the data required under commercial and tax law for the periods specified by law, typically ten years (see Section 257 of the German Commercial Code (HGB) and Section 147 of the German Fiscal Code (AO)).
- Data processed for the purpose of carrying out pre-contractual measures will be deleted as soon as the measures have been carried out and it is clear that a contract will not be concluded.
Upon request, we can provide you with a certificate confirming this deletion.
A data erasure policy for the various categories of personal data has been developed on the basis of the statutory provisions and implemented accordingly.

11. Liability for content
The content of our website has been compiled with the utmost care. However, we cannot guarantee the accuracy, completeness or timeliness of the content. As a service provider, we are responsible for our own content on this website in accordance with Section 7(1) of the German Telemedia Act (TMG) and general legislation. However, pursuant to Sections 8 to 10 of the German Telemedia Act (TMG), we, as a service provider, are not obliged to monitor third-party information transmitted or stored on our site, nor are we obliged to investigate circumstances that indicate unlawful activity. Obligations to remove or block the use of information in accordance with general laws remain unaffected by this. However, liability in this regard is only possible from the time we become aware of a specific legal infringement. Should we become aware of any such infringements, we will remove the content in question immediately.

12. Liability for links
Our website contains links to external third-party websites over whose content we have no control. We therefore accept no liability for this third-party content. The respective provider or operator of the linked pages is always responsible for their content. The linked pages were checked for possible legal infringements at the time the links were created. No unlawful content was identifiable at the time the links were created. However, it is not reasonable to expect us to monitor the content of the linked pages on an ongoing basis without specific evidence of a legal infringement. Should we become aware of any legal infringements, we will remove such links immediately.

13. Copyright
The content and works on these pages created by the site operators are subject to German copyright law. Reproduction, adaptation, distribution and any form of use outside the scope of copyright law require the written consent of the respective author or creator. Downloads and copies of this site are permitted only for private, non-commercial use. Where the content on this site has not been created by the operator, the copyright of third parties is respected. In particular, third-party content is identified as such. Should you nevertheless become aware of any copyright infringement, please notify us accordingly. Should we become aware of any infringements, we will remove such content immediately. The European Commission provides a platform for online dispute resolution, which can be accessed at ec.europa.eu/consumers/odr/.

14. Server log files and Webalizer
When you access our website, connection data is stored. This means that, by default, whenever a file is accessed or an attempt is made to access a file on this server, the following data relating to this operation is stored in a log file (server log file) for the purposes of system security and for statistical purposes:
• truncated IP address
• Time and method of access
• URL accessed
• Version of the HTTP protocol used
• Result of the request • Size of the request in KB
• Page accessed prior to this page (referrer)
• Information about the browser and operating system used
None of this data is directly personally identifiable. Personal data such as your name, address, telephone number or email address is not collected.
Based on this, this website uses the ‘Webalizer’ tool, a web analytics programme for the statistical analysis of user access to the site. ‘Webalizer’ uses data from the server log files to generate reports on, for example, the number of hits, file/page requests, visits, etc.
These analyses are not combined with other data sources, in particular with personal data. The information generated is stored by our provider in Germany. It is not passed on to third parties.

15. Privacy Policy regarding the use of cookies

Information about the cookies we use

Essential cookies (Session, SLT, CSRF)
General:
Essential cookies help to make a website usable by enabling basic functions such as page navigation and access to secure areas of the website.

Specific:
Shopware stores cookies in the visitor’s browser to ensure the shop’s basic functions work. These cookies enable, for example, the shopping basket contents, login status and CSRF protection. Shopware cannot be used unless these cookies are permitted in the browser. IMPORTANT: Shopware only ever stores IDs in the customer’s browser; the assignment to the respective information takes place within the application.

Name: _csrf_token_1 Duration: End of session
Name: sUniqueID Duration: 1 year
Name: SHOPWARE Duration: End of session
Name: lastCheck Duration: 1 day
Name: session-1 Duration: End of session
Name: allowCookies Duration: 6 months
Name: x-ua-device Duration: end of session
Name: cookiePreferences Duration: 6 months

Session
Shopware uses the session cookie to determine whether the user in question has an active shopping basket and whether they are logged in. It therefore serves as a means of identification between the browser and the server. No further information, apart from the session ID, is stored in the browser. Session management is controlled on the server side via PHP and is independent of Shopware.

CSRF
In addition, Shopware generates a unique CSRF cookie when the shop is visited, so that the customer can navigate the various sections of the shop.

SLT
One of the new features in 5.3 is the SLT cookie, which enables the shop to recognise customers when they return, even if the session has already expired.

Wishlist
If a customer adds a product to their wishlist, a cookie named "sUniqueID" is created to store the contents of the wishlist.

Recently viewed items
Information on “recently viewed items” is also stored in the browser’s local storage.

Marketing
General
Marketing cookies help website owners understand the interests of website visitors so that they can better tailor the range and presentation of products and services to these individual interests.

16. Privacy Policy regarding the use of Hotjar
We use Hotjar software to improve the user experience on our websites. Hotjar enables us, amongst other things, to measure and analyse user behaviour (mouse movements, clicks, scroll depth, etc.) on our websites. This enables us to draw conclusions about the user experience when using our website. For this purpose, Hotjar places cookies on users’ devices and may store user data such as browser information, operating system, time spent on the site, IP address (in anonymised form), etc. A specific tracking code is also used for this purpose. The data collected is transmitted to a Hotjar server in Ireland and stored there. You can find out more about data processing by Hotjar here: https://www.hotjar.com/privacy

If you wish to block the Hotjar service, you can do so free of charge at any time using the Do Not Track header, which you can find here: http://overheat.de/opt-out.html You can also disable JavaScript in your browser or install a tool such as the script blocker ‘NoScript’ (www.noscript.net).

17. Privacy policy regarding the use of Facebook Pixel
The Visitor Action Pixel is a service provided by Facebook Inc., 1601 S. California Ave., Palo Alto, CA 94304, USA. It enables the tracking of users’ behaviour after they have clicked on a Facebook advert and been redirected to the website of the advertising or advertised company. Conversion tracking using the Visitor Action Pixel allows us to measure, analyse and optimise the effectiveness of Facebook adverts for statistical and market research purposes. The data collected on our websites via the Visitor Action Pixel does not enable us to identify individual users. The data collected (e.g. the user’s IP address) is transmitted to Facebook via the Visitor Action Pixel. This data is stored and processed by Facebook for the purpose of conversion tracking. Dogstyler receives reports from Facebook on conversion measurement in anonymised form. These reports also do not allow any conclusions to be drawn regarding the identity of users. However, it cannot be ruled out that Facebook may link the transmitted data with other personal data relating to the user (e.g. user data associated with an existing Facebook account) or that Facebook may use such data for its own further purposes.

The visitor action pixel is a service provided by a company (Facebook) independent of Dogstyler. We have no influence over the relevant data processing procedures in this regard. For further information on Facebook’s use of the data collected, please refer to Facebook’s relevant information, e.g. at https://www.facebook.com/about/privacy/

Facebook and its partners enable the display of advertisements on Facebook’s websites and on third-party sites. For the purposes of using the visitor action pixel and tracking related activities, a cookie may be stored on the user’s computer for these purposes.

You may withdraw your consent to the use of conversion tracking via the visitor action pixel at any time. To do so, please click on the following link: https://www.facebook.com/ads/website_custom_audiences
Clicking here will set the opt-out cookie: Disable Facebook Pixel

18. Privacy Policy for the use of Google Analytics
(1) Purpose of processing
This website uses Google Analytics, a web analytics service provided by Google LLC, 1600 Amphitheatre Parkway, Mountain View, CA 94043, USA. (“Google”).

The information generated by the cookie regarding your use of this website is usually transmitted to a Google server in the USA and stored there. However, if IP anonymisation is enabled on this website, your IP address will be truncated by Google beforehand within Member States of the European Union or in other signatory states to the Agreement on the European Economic Area. Only in exceptional cases will the full IP address be transmitted to a Google server in the USA and truncated there.

(2) Legal basis
The legal basis for this processing is Article 6(1)(f) of the GDPR.

(3) Legitimate interest
Our legitimate interest is the statistical analysis of user behaviour for optimisation and marketing purposes. To protect your interest in data protection, this website uses Google Analytics with the ‘anonymizeIP()’ extension, so that IP addresses are only processed in truncated form to rule out any direct personal identification.

(4) Categories of recipients
Google, partner companies

(5) Transfer to a third country
Google LLC, based in the USA, is certified under the US-EU data protection agreement ‘Privacy Shield’, which guarantees compliance with the data protection standards applicable in the EU (until 2020) This data protection agreement with the US was terminated at the start of 2020. A corresponding new arrangement is currently being drawn up

(6) Retention period
14 months

(7) RIGHT TO OBJECT
You can also prevent the collection of data generated by the cookie and relating to your use of the website (including your IP address) by Google, as well as the processing of this data by Google, by downloading and installing the browser add-on. Opt-out cookies prevent the future collection of your data when you visit this website. To prevent collection by Universal Analytics across different devices, you must carry out the opt-out on all systems you use. If you click here, the opt-out cookie will be set: Disable Google Analytics.

19. Privacy Policy for the use of Google Maps
