The websites of Miracle Wedding by Schott, Schott & Schott GbR use cookies. Cookies are text files that are stored on a computer system via an internet browser.

Many websites and servers use cookies. Many cookies contain a so-called cookie ID. A cookie ID is a unique identifier of the cookie. It consists of a string through which internet pages and servers can be assigned to the specific internet browser in which the cookie was stored. This allows visited websites and servers to differentiate the individual browser of the data subject from other internet browsers that contain other cookies. A specific internet browser can be recognized and identified via the unique cookie ID.

By using cookies, Miracle Wedding by Schott, Schott & Schott GbR can provide users of this website with more user-friendly services that would not be possible without the cookie setting.

Using a cookie allows the information and offers on our website to be optimized with the user in mind. Cookies allow us, as previously mentioned, to recognize the users of our website. The purpose of this recognition is to make it easier for users to utilize our website. The user of a website that uses cookies, for example, does not have to enter access data each time the website is accessed because this is taken over by the website, and the cookie stored on the user's computer system. Another example is the cookie of a shopping cart in an online shop. The online store remembers the items that a customer has placed in the virtual shopping cart via a cookie.

We also use cookies on our website that allow an analysis of the user's browsing behavior.

In this way, the following data can be transmitted:

Frequency of page views Use of website functions

The data collected in this way on users is pseudonymized by technical precautions. Therefore, an assignment of the data to the calling user is no longer possible. The data is not stored together with other personal data of the users.

When accessing our website, users are informed about the use of cookies for analysis purposes and their consent to the processing of personal data used in this context is obtained. In this context, there is also a reference to this privacy policy.

The legal basis for the processing of personal data using cookies for analysis purposes is, in the presence of the user's consent, Art. 6 para. 1 lit. a GDPR.

The data subject can prevent the setting of cookies through our website at any time by means of a corresponding setting of the internet browser used and thus permanently contradict the setting of cookies. Furthermore, already set cookies can be deleted at any time via an internet browser or other software programs. This is possible in all common internet browsers.

4. Collection of General Data and Information

The website of Schott GbR -Miracle Designs- collects a series of general data and information with each call to the website by a data subject or an automated system. This general data and information are stored in the server's log files. The following data can be recorded: (1) the types and versions of browsers used, (2) the operating system used by the accessing system, (3) the website from which an accessing system reaches our website (so-called referrers), (4) the sub-websites that are accessed via an accessing system on our website, (5) the date and time of access to the website, (6) an internet protocol address (IP address), (7) the internet service provider of the accessing system, and (8) other similar data and information that serve to avert dangers in the event of attacks on our information technology systems.

When using this general data and information, Schott GbR -Miracle Designs- does not draw any conclusions about the data subject. Rather, this information is needed to (1) deliver the content of our website correctly, (2) optimize the content of our website and advertise it, (3) ensure the permanent functionality of our information technology systems and the technology of our website, and (4) provide law enforcement authorities with the information necessary for prosecution in the event of a cyberattack. This anonymously collected data and information is therefore evaluated statistically and also with the aim of increasing data protection and data security in our company in order to ultimately ensure an optimal level of protection for the personal data we process. The anonymous data of the server log files are stored separately from all personal data provided by a data subject.

In addition, following explicit permission from the respective users and in compliance with applicable data protection regulations, the following personal data is also collected:

First and last names of users IP address of users Email address of users Information about place of residence (postal code, etc.)

This access data includes, for example, the file you requested or the name of your internet provider. Due to the anonymization of the data, conclusions about your person are not possible. The IP addresses of the user or other data that allow the assignment of the data to a user are not affected. Storage of this data together with other personal data of the user does not take place.

​6. Subscription to Our Newsletter

Miracle Wedding by Schott, Schott & Schott GbR informs its customers and business partners at regular intervals through a newsletter about the company's offers. The newsletter of our company can only be received by the data subject if (1) the data subject has a valid email address and (2) the data subject registers for the newsletter dispatch. A confirmation email will be sent to the email address first registered by a data subject for newsletter dispatch, in a double opt-in procedure, for legal reasons. This confirmation email is used to check whether the owner of the email address, as the data subject, has authorized the receipt of the newsletter.

When registering for the newsletter, we also store the IP address assigned by the Internet Service Provider (ISP) of the data subject's computer system used at the time of registration, as well as the date and time of registration. The collection of these data is necessary to understand the (possible) misuse of an email address at a later date and therefore serves the legal protection of the controller.

The personal data collected as part of a registration for the newsletter will only be used to send our newsletter. Subscribers to the newsletter may be notified by email if this is necessary for the operation of the newsletter service or a registration, as might be the case in the event of changes to the newsletter offer or technical changes. There will be no transfer of the personal data collected as part of the newsletter service to third parties. Subscription to our newsletter may be terminated by the data subject at any time. The consent to the storage of personal data that the data subject has given us for the newsletter dispatch can be revoked at any time. There is a corresponding link in every newsletter for the purpose of revoking consent. Furthermore, it is also possible to unsubscribe from the newsletter at any time directly on the website of the controller or to inform the controller in another way.

Parts of our newsletter may contain advertising material.

7. Newsletter Tracking

The newsletters of Miracle Wedding by Schott, Schott & Schott GbR contain so-called tracking pixels. A tracking pixel is a miniature graphic embedded in such emails that are sent in HTML format to enable log file recording and log file analysis. This allows a statistical analysis of the success or failure of online marketing campaigns. Based on the embedded tracking pixel, Miracle Wedding by Schott, Schott & Schott GbR can recognize whether and when an email from a data subject was opened and which links in the email were called up by the data subject.

Personal data collected via the tracking pixels contained in the newsletters will be stored and evaluated by the controller to optimize newsletter delivery and tailor the content of future newsletters even better to the interests of the data subject. These personal data will not be passed on to third parties. Data subjects are at any time entitled to revoke the respective separate declaration of consent issued via the double-opt-in procedure. After a revocation, these personal data will be deleted by the controller. Unsubscribing from receiving the newsletter will automatically be interpreted by Miracle Wedding by Schott, Schott & Schott GbR as a revocation.

By registering on the website of the controller, the IP address assigned by the Internet Service Provider (ISP) to the data subject, the date, and time of registration are also stored. The storage of this data takes place against the background that this is the only way to prevent the misuse of our services and, if necessary, to enable the investigation of committed offenses.

The operating company of Sofortüberweisung is SOFORT GmbH, Fußbergstraße 1, 82131 Gauting, Germany.

If the data subject selects "Sofortüberweisung" as the payment option during the ordering process on our online shop, the data subject's information will be automatically transmitted to Sofortüberweisung. By choosing this payment option, the data subject consents to the transmission of personal data required for payment processing.

During the purchase process using Sofortüberweisung, the buyer transmits the PIN and TAN to Sofort GmbH. After a technical check of the account balance and retrieval of further data to check the availability of funds, Sofortüberweisung initiates a transfer to the online retailer. The execution of the financial transaction is then automatically communicated to the online retailer.

The personal data exchanged with Sofortüberweisung includes first name, last name, address, email address, IP address, phone number, mobile phone number, or other data necessary for payment processing. The transmission of data is for the purpose of payment processing and fraud prevention. The data controller will transmit other personal data to Sofortüberweisung when there is a legitimate interest for such transmission. The personal data exchanged between Sofortüberweisung and the data controller may be transmitted to credit reporting agencies by Sofortüberweisung. This transmission aims to verify identity and creditworthiness.

Sofortüberweisung may also disclose personal data to affiliated companies and service providers or subcontractors as necessary for fulfilling contractual obligations or if the data is to be processed on behalf.

The data subject has the option to revoke consent for handling personal data at any time with Sofortüberweisung. Revoking consent does not affect personal data that must be processed, used, or transmitted for (contractual) payment processing.

​15. Google Ads:

This website uses Google Ads, an online advertising program provided by Google Ireland Limited, Gordon House, Barrow Street, Dublin 4, Ireland.

As part of Google Ads, we utilize conversion tracking. When you click on an ad placed by Google, a cookie for conversion tracking is set. Cookies are small text files that the internet browser stores on the user's computer. These cookies expire after 30 days and are not used for personal identification of users. If the user visits specific pages of this website and the cookie has not expired, Google and we can recognize that the user clicked on the ad and was redirected to this page.

Each Google Ads customer receives a different cookie, and these cookies cannot be tracked across the websites of Google Ads customers. The information obtained through the conversion cookie is used to create conversion statistics for Google Ads customers who have opted for conversion tracking. Customers receive the total number of users who clicked on their ad and were redirected to a page with a conversion tracking tag. However, they do not receive information that allows the identification of individual users. If you do not want to participate in tracking, you can object to this use by easily disabling the Google conversion tracking cookie in your internet browser settings. In that case, you will not be included in the conversion tracking statistics.

The storage of "conversion cookies" and the use of this tracking tool are based on Art. 6(1)(f) of the GDPR. The website operator has a legitimate interest in analyzing user behavior to optimize both its web offering and advertising. If consent has been requested (e.g., consent to store cookies), the processing is carried out exclusively on the basis of Art. 6(1)(a) of the GDPR; consent can be revoked at any time.

For more information on Google Ads and Google conversion tracking, please refer to Google's privacy policy: https://policies.google.com/privacy?hl=en.

You can configure your browser to inform you about the setting of cookies, allow cookies only in individual cases, exclude the acceptance of cookies for specific cases, or generally, and activate the automatic deletion of cookies when closing the browser. Disabling cookies may limit the functionality of this website.

16. Legal basis for processing:

Art. 6(1)(a) GDPR serves as the legal basis for processing operations where we obtain consent for a specific processing purpose. If the processing of personal data is necessary for the performance of a contract to which the data subject is a party, as is the case, for example, with processing operations necessary for the delivery of goods or the provision of other services or consideration, the processing is based on Art. 6(1)(b) GDPR. The same applies to such processing operations that are necessary for carrying out pre-contractual measures, for example, in the case of inquiries regarding our products or services. If our company is subject to a legal obligation by which processing of personal data is required, such as for the fulfillment of tax obligations, the processing is based on Art. 6(1)(c) GDPR. In rare cases, the processing of personal data may be necessary to protect the vital interests of the data subject or of another natural person. This would be the case, for example, if a visitor were injured in our company and his name, age, health insurance data, or other vital information would have to be passed on to a doctor, hospital, or other third party. Then the processing would be based on Art. 6(1)(d) GDPR. Ultimately, processing operations could be based on Art. 6(1)(f) GDPR. This legal basis is used for processing operations that are not covered by any of the aforementioned legal grounds, if processing is necessary for the purposes of the legitimate interests pursued by our company or by a third party, except where such interests are overridden by the interests or fundamental rights and freedoms of the data subject. Such processing operations are particularly permissible because they have been specifically mentioned by the European legislator. He considered that a legitimate interest could be assumed if the data subject is a client of the controller (Recital 47 Sentence 2 GDPR).

​​

17. Legitimate interests pursued by the data controller or a third party:

If the processing of personal data is based on Article 6(1)(f) GDPR, our legitimate interest is the conduct of our business for the benefit of all our employees and shareholders.

​​

18. Duration for which the personal data is stored:

The criterion for the duration of the storage of personal data is the respective statutory retention period. After the expiration of the period, the corresponding data is routinely deleted, provided it is no longer necessary for the fulfillment of the contract or the initiation of a contract.

​​

19. Legal or contractual provisions for the provision of personal data; necessity for the conclusion of the contract; obligation of the data subject to provide the personal data; possible consequences of non-provision:

We inform you that the provision of personal data is partly required by law (e.g., tax regulations) or can also result from contractual provisions (e.g., information on the contractual partner). Sometimes it may be necessary to conclude a contract that the data subject provides us with personal data, which must subsequently be processed by us. The data subject is, for example, obliged to provide us with personal data when our company signs a contract with them. The non-provision of the personal data would have the consequence that the contract with the data subject could not be concluded. Before personal data is provided by the data subject, the data subject must contact one of our employees. Our employee clarifies to the data subject whether the provision of the personal data is required by law or contract or is necessary for the conclusion of the contract, whether there is an obligation to provide the personal data, and the consequences of non-provision of the personal data.

​​

20. Changes to the data protection declaration:

We reserve the right to adapt this data protection declaration so that it always complies with the current legal requirements or to implement changes to our services in the data protection declaration, e.g., when introducing new services. The new data protection declaration will then apply for your next visit.

​​

21. Existence of automated decision-making:

As a responsible company, we refrain from automatic decision-making or profiling.
