Email: info@discounttackle.shop

The controller’s complete legal identity and geographic address must also be disclosed in the store’s Legal Notice when legally required.

Depending on how you interact with the store, we may process:

• Identification data, including name;
• Contact data, including email address, telephone number, billing address, and shipping address;
• Order data, including products purchased, order value, discounts, returns, refunds, complaints, and delivery status;

• Marketing data, including communication preferences, consent records, and interactions with promotional messages;

We generally do not directly store complete payment-card details. Payments are processed by Shopify or other authorized payment providers under their respective terms and privacy practices.

How We Collect Personal Data

We collect personal data:

• Directly from you;
• Automatically through cookies and similar technologies;
• From Shopify and applications used to operate the store;
• From payment, shipping, analytics, fraud-prevention, and customer-support providers;
• From social-media or advertising services where legally permitted; and
• From other parties when necessary to process an order or protect the store.

Purposes and Legal Bases

We process personal data for the following purposes and legal bases:

Contract Performance

Under Article 6(1)(b) GDPR, we process data to:

• Display products and provide the online store;
• Process and confirm orders;
• Process payments;
• Arrange shipment and delivery;
• Provide order tracking;
• Handle cancellations, withdrawals, returns, refunds, and warranty claims;
• Maintain customer accounts; and
• Respond to pre-contractual requests.

Legal Obligations

Under Article 6(1)(c) GDPR, we process data to:

• Maintain accounting and transaction records;
• Meet tax, commercial, consumer-protection, and regulatory duties;
• Respond to legally valid requests from authorities; and
• document consent, withdrawal, and compliance activities.

Legitimate Interests

Under Article 6(1)(f) GDPR, we may process data to:

• Secure the website and prevent fraud;
• Investigate misuse and enforce legal claims;
• Improve website functionality and customer service;
• Maintain business records;
• Conduct limited service analytics where consent is not legally required; and
• Communicate with existing customers about closely related products where permitted.

Our legitimate interests do not override your fundamental rights and freedoms. You may object to processing based on legitimate interests.

Consent

Under Article 6(1)(a) GDPR and applicable electronic-communications rules, we rely on consent where required for:

• Non-essential cookies;
• Personalized advertising;
• Certain analytics technologies;
• Email marketing where another legal basis is unavailable; and
• Any other activity for which we specifically request consent.

You may withdraw consent at any time without affecting processing carried out before withdrawal.

Cookies and Similar Technologies

We use technologies necessary for the operation, security, checkout, shopping cart, language settings, and other essential functions of the store.

Non-essential analytics, advertising, or personalization technologies will be used only with prior consent where required. You may accept, reject, or adjust non-essential cookie preferences through the consent controls available on the website.

Rejecting non-essential cookies will not prevent access to basic store functions, although some optional features may operate differently.

Shopify

Our store is hosted through Shopify. Shopify processes personal data to provide the ecommerce platform, checkout, infrastructure, fraud prevention, security, and related services.

Shopify may process data in countries outside the European Economic Area. Where required, such transfers must be protected by an adequacy decision, Standard Contractual Clauses, or another legally recognized transfer mechanism.

Shopify’s own privacy documentation may provide additional information about its processing activities.

Service Providers and Recipients

We may share personal data only as reasonably necessary with:

• Shopify and ecommerce-platform providers;
• Payment processors and financial institutions;
• Warehouses, fulfillment partners, postal operators, and couriers;
• Information-technology, hosting, security, and fraud-prevention providers;
• Customer-support providers;
• Analytics, advertising, and cookie providers, subject to consent requirements;
• Professional advisers, including accountants, auditors, insurers, and legal advisers;
• Public authorities where disclosure is legally required; and
• A successor entity involved in a merger, restructuring, financing, acquisition, or sale of business assets, subject to applicable law.

Service providers may use personal data only under their applicable agreements, instructions, independent legal obligations, and privacy terms.

We do not sell personal data in the ordinary meaning of selling it for money.

International Data Transfers

Some recipients may process personal data outside Germany or the European Economic Area.

Where the destination does not benefit from an applicable adequacy decision, we will use an appropriate safeguard required by law, such as European Commission Standard Contractual Clauses, and supplementary measures where necessary.

You may contact info@discounttackle.shop for information about applicable safeguards.

Data Retention

We retain personal data only for as long as necessary for the relevant purpose, including:

• Order, invoice, tax, and accounting information for legally required retention periods;
• Contract and complaint records for the period needed to perform the contract, comply with law, and establish, exercise, or defend legal claims;
• Account data until the account is deleted, unless continued retention is required;
• Marketing data until consent is withdrawn or an objection is received, subject to retaining a suppression record;
• Security logs for a proportionate period; and
• Cookie data for the duration disclosed through the applicable cookie controls.

When retention is no longer necessary, data will be deleted, anonymized, or restricted as required by law.

Your GDPR Rights

Subject to the conditions and limitations of applicable law, you may have the right to:

• Obtain confirmation that we process your personal data;
• Access your personal data;
• Correct inaccurate or incomplete data;
• Request erasure;
• Restrict processing;
• Receive portable data in a structured, commonly used, machine-readable format;
• Object to processing based on legitimate interests;
• Object at any time to direct marketing;
• Withdraw consent at any time;
• Request information about international-transfer safeguards; and
• Lodge a complaint with a competent data-protection supervisory authority.

You may contact the supervisory authority for your habitual residence, workplace, or the location of an alleged GDPR infringement.

Automated Decision-Making

We may use automated fraud-screening tools to identify potentially risky transactions. We do not intend to make decisions producing legal or similarly significant effects based solely on automated processing unless permitted by law and accompanied by required safeguards.

Children’s Data

The store is not intentionally directed to children who cannot legally consent to relevant data processing or enter into the applicable transaction. We do not knowingly collect children’s personal data without an appropriate legal basis or required parental authorization.

Security

We use reasonable technical and organizational safeguards appropriate to the nature and risk of the processing. However, no internet transmission or storage system is completely secure.

Customers are responsible for keeping account credentials confidential and notifying us of suspected unauthorized account use.

Marketing Communications

Where legally permitted, we may send marketing messages based on consent or another lawful basis. Every promotional email will provide an unsubscribe method.

Unsubscribing from marketing does not prevent transactional messages necessary to process an order, provide support, or communicate important service information.

Data Required to Complete an Order

Certain data is required to enter into and perform a purchase contract. If you do not provide required billing, delivery, contact, or payment information, we may be unable to accept or fulfill the order.

Changes to This Privacy Policy

We may update this Privacy Policy to reflect operational, legal, regulatory, or technological changes. The revised version will be posted with an updated effective date.

Material changes will be communicated where required by law.
