We may use contract processors to process your personal data, but will not pass on your personal data to third parties.
Only for the fulfillment of the contract, the data may be passed on to the shipping company commissioned with the delivery, insofar as this is necessary to deliver ordered goods. For the processing of payments, the payment data required will be passed on to the credit institution commissioned with the payment and, if applicable, to the commissioned and selected payment service provider.
