It is our goal at store:fotokoch.sk to develop an environment that is easy to use and always respectful of the rights and expectations of our customers and other visitors to the FotoKoch website (www.fotokoch.sk).
This privacy policy describes how Hifi & Foto Koch GmbH (referred to here as "Foto Koch") collects, processes and uses the data that you give us when you use our website and protects it in accordance with the applicable data protection regulations.
As of May 25, 2018, the provisions of the EU General Data Protection Regulation (hereinafter: GDPR) apply throughout Europe. Here we would like to inform you about the processing of personal data carried out by HiFi & Foto Koch GmbH in accordance with this new regulation (see Article 13 GDPR). Please read our data protection information carefully. If you have any questions or comments about this data protection information, you can send them at any time to the email address given in section 2.
The following data protection information informs you about the type and scope of the processing of so-called personal data by HiFi & Foto Koch GmbH. Personal data is information that is or can be directly or indirectly assigned to your person. Data processing by HiFi & Foto Koch GmbH can essentially be divided into two categories at :
For the purpose of contract processing, all data required for the execution of a contract with HiFi & Foto Koch GmbH are processed. If external service providers are also involved in the processing of the contract, e.g. logistics companies, payment service providers and/or registration offices of the manufacturer or distributor, your data will be passed on to them to the extent necessary in each case.
When you access the website/application of HiFi & Foto Koch GmbH, various pieces of information are exchanged between your end device and our server. This may also involve personal data. The information collected in this way is used, among other things, to optimize our website or to display advertising in the browser of your device.
In accordance with the provisions of the GDPR, you have various rights that you can assert against us. These include the right to object to selected data processing, in particular data processing for advertising purposes. The option to object is described in 3.3.3. and 3.4.
If you have any questions about our data protection information, you are welcome to contact our company data protection officer at any time. You will find the contact details below.
This data protection information applies to data processing by HiFi & Foto Koch GmbH, Schadowstraße 60/62, 40212 Düsseldorf, Germany ("controller"), and to the following website or application:

Website of the data protection officer: zida-datensicherheit.de
When you access our website/application, the browser used on your device automatically sends information to the server of our website/application and stores it temporarily in a log file. We have no influence on this. The following information is also collected without your intervention and stored until it is automatically deleted
The legal basis for processing the IP address is Article 6(1)(f) GDPR. Our legitimate interest follows from the purposes of data collection listed below. At this point, please note that we cannot draw any direct conclusions about your identity from the data collected and that we do not do so.
The IP address of your end device and the other data listed above are used by us for the following purposes
The data is stored for a period of 180 days and then automatically deleted. We also use cookies, tracking tools, targeting methods and social media plug-ins for our website/application. The exact procedures involved and how your data is used for this purpose are explained in more detail below in section 3.4.
The purpose of HiFi & Foto Koch GmbH is the retail and distance selling of goods and services. In this context, we process the data required for the conclusion, performance or termination of a contract . This includes:
The legal basis for this is Article 6(1)(b) GDPR, i.e. you provide us with the data on the basis of the contractual relationship between you and us. If we do not use your contact data for advertising purposes (see 3.3. below), we store the data collected for contract processing until the expiry of the statutory or possible contractual warranty and guarantee rights. After this period has expired, we retain the information required under commercial and tax law relating to the contractual relationship for the periods specified by law. For this period (regularly ten years), the data is processed again solely in the event of a review by the tax authorities. We review the necessity of data storage at regular intervals - at least every two years. When your goods are dispatched, the order data (for clarification, your name, email and delivery address) will be used to track the shipment and identify problem cases in accordance with Art. 6 para. 1 lit. b. (in the context of contractual/pre-contractual relationships), Art. 6 para. 1 lit. f. (other inquiries) GDPR.
The following data processing is also required to process the purchase contract:
Your delivery address and email address will also be stored and processed in the PAQATO shipping analysis system of PAQATO GmbH (Johann-Krane-Weg 6, 48149 Münster, Germany) in order to deliver the goods faster and without errors and to ensure smooth communication in this regard (legitimate interest pursuant to Art. 6 para. 1 lit. f. GDPR).
If necessary, we check your identity with the help of information from service providers. The legal basis for this is Article 6(1)(b) and (f) GDPR. The authorization for this arises from the protection of your identity and the avoidance of fraud attempts to our detriment. The fact and the result of our request will be stored in your customer account for the duration of the contractual relationship.
I hereby consent to my creditworthiness being checked by HiFi & Foto Koch GmbH. I am aware that the check is carried out at the beginning of the order process and that I can revoke my consent at any time.
You can revoke your consent at any time with effect for the future by sending an email to to the address given under Contact or in 2.. The withdrawal of consent does not affect the lawfulness of the personal data processed until the withdrawal. If you do not wish to give the above consent, please inform us accordingly before you initiate the conclusion of your purchase. In this case, however, we can only offer you payment methods that are not associated with a credit risk for HiFi & Foto Koch GmbH. The circumstance and the result of our request will be stored in your customer account for the duration of the contractual relationship.
If you have already made a purchase from us, the data we have stored about you may be supplemented by so-called score values. The term scoring refers to the creation of a forecast of future events based on collected information and past experience. The data stored about you is used to assign you to statistical groups of people who have had similar entries in the past. The underlying procedure used is a well-founded mathematical-statistical method for forecasting risk probabilities that has been tried and tested in practice for many years.
In the event of a delay in payment , we transmit the necessary data to a company commissioned to enforce the claim if the other legal requirements are met. The legal bases for this are both Article 6(1)(b) and Article 6(1)(f) GDPR. The assertion of a contractual claim is to be regarded as a legitimate interest within the meaning of the second-mentioned provision. If the other legal requirements are met, we also transmit information about the delay in payment or a possible default to credit agencies cooperating with us. The legal basis for this is Article 6(1)(f) GDPR. The legitimate interest required here arises from our interest and that of third parties in reducing contractual risks for future contracts.
If you have concluded a contract with us, we will treat you as an existing customer. In this case, we process your postal contact data outside the existence of a specific consent in order to send you information about new products and services in this way.
We categorize and add further information to your customer profile so that you only receive information that is supposedly of interest to you. Both statistical information and personal information (e.g. basic data from your customer profile) are used for this purpose. The aim is to send you advertising based solely on your actual or perceived needs and not to bother you with unnecessary advertising.
The legal basis for the aforementioned processing is Article 6(1)(f) GDPR. The processing of existing customer data in this way for our own advertising purposes or for the advertising purposes of third parties is to be regarded as a legitimate interest.
You can object to data processing for the aforementioned purposes at any time free of charge, separately for the respective communication channel and with effect for the future. All you need to do is send an email or a letter by post to the contact details listed under 2.
If you file an objection, the contact address concerned will be blocked for further advertising data processing. We would like to point out that in exceptional cases, advertising material may still be sent temporarily even after we have received your objection. This is technically due to the necessary lead time for advertisements and does not mean that we will not implement your objection. Thank you for your understanding.
On our website, we offer you the opportunity to subscribe to our newsletter. In order to ensure that no errors have been made when entering your e-mail address, we use the so-called double opt-in procedure: After you have entered your e-mail address in the registration field, we will send you a confirmation link. Only when you click on this confirmation link will your e-mail address be added to our mailing list. You can revoke your consent at any time with effect for the future. All you need to do is click on the "Unsubscribe newsletter" link in each newsletter. Alternatively, you can send an email to the email address given under 2.
We currently use GetResponse software (Sp. z o.o., Arkonska 6/A3 80-387 Gdansk, Poland) to send our newsletters. Relevant data is passed on to GetResponse to ensure smooth dispatch and personalized content as well as to monitor success. In addition to your email address, this may include information from your customer account and your usage and purchasing behavior. Other pseudonymized data such as retrieval times, IP addresses, end devices and browsers etc. are also collected. For statistical purposes, we and GetResponse evaluate various actions, e.g. which links in the newsletter are clicked, which items were sold, etc. Web beacons and/or tracking pixels are used for evaluation. The targeting measures listed and used by us and GetResponse are carried out on the basis of Article 6(1) GDPR. GetResponse is a very secure partner that is contractually bound to the highest data protection standards. Further information on GetResponse's data protection can be found at https://www.getresponse.com/de/legal/datenschutz. A change of provider is not ruled out in the future, but is not currently planned. In the event of a change of provider, the data usage rights will be transferred to the new software provider, who will adhere to at least the same high standards.

Several times per calendar year we organize photo competitions in which you may send in pictures to take part in the competition. These photo competitions are organized by HiFi & Foto Koch GmbH or in cooperation with our partners. All persons over the age of 18 may participate. By submitting a photo, you agree to the respective conditions of participation. The participant assures that he or she owns all rights to the submitted photo, has the unrestricted exploitation rights to all parts of the photo, that the photo is free of third-party rights and that no personal rights are violated in the depiction of persons. If one or more persons are recognizably depicted in the photo, the persons concerned must agree to the photo being published. The participant will provide written confirmation of the above on request. Should third parties nevertheless assert claims for infringement of their rights, the participant shall indemnify the organizer against all claims. The data submitted by the participants will be published if the photos are published as part of the photo competition (reporting on this, award ceremony, publication on the homepage, etc.) or, if necessary, passed on to third parties involved (e.g. newspaper editors). The participants expressly agree to this.
On our website, you have the opportunity to make appointments for an on-site, virtual or digital consultation. Certain personal data is collected for this purpose, including name, address, telephone number and email address.

If the storage of personal data is no longer necessary for the fulfillment of these obligations, it will be deleted, unless there are legal storage obligations.
With the exception of the processing described under 3.4.2 and 3.4.3, we do not pass on your data to recipients based outside the European Union or the European Economic Area.

In addition to the right to withdraw the consent you have given us, you have the following additional rights if the relevant legal requirements are met:
Under the conditions of Art. 21 para. 1 GDPR, data processing may be objected to for reasons arising from the particular situation of the data subject.
The above general right to object applies to all processing purposes described in this data protection information that are processed on the basis of Article 6(1)(f) GDPR. In contrast to the special right to object to data processing for advertising purposes (see 3.3.4 above), we are only obliged under the GDPR to implement such a general objection if you give us reasons of overriding importance (e.g. a possible danger to life or health). In addition, you have the option of contacting our data protection officer (see contact in 2.) or the supervisory authority responsible for HiFi & Foto Koch GmbH.
All data transmitted by you personally, including your payment data, is transmitted using the generally accepted and secure TLS (Transport Layer Security) standard, a technical enhancement of SSL (Secure Socket Layer).

You can recognize a secure TSL connection by the s appended to http (i.e. https://...) in the address bar of your browser or by the lock symbol at the bottom of your browser.
We also use suitable technical and organizational security measures to protect your personal data stored by us against manipulation, partial or complete loss and against unauthorized access by third parties. Our security measures are continuously improved and reviewed in line with technological developments.
