Data Protection Officer

We have appointed a data protection officer.

If you have any questions about this Privacy Notice, the data we process about you, or the processing activities described below, please contact our designated data protection officer by email first, if possible:

Mr. Matthias Kunert
cubeoffice GmbH & Co. KG
Fichtestr. 29a

Phone: +49 391 61128-69
Email: datenschutz@cubeoffice.de

Information on the transfer of data to third countries that do not ensure an adequate level of data protection and on the transfer of data to US companies that are not DPF-certified

We use, among other things, tools provided by companies based in third countries that do not ensure an adequate level of data protection, as well as US tools whose providers are not certified under the EU-US Data Privacy Framework (DPF). When these tools are active, your personal data may be transferred to and processed in these countries. Please note that a level of data protection comparable to that in the EU cannot be guaranteed in third countries that do not ensure an adequate level of data protection.

For the USA, the European Commission has issued an adequacy decision (EU-US Data Privacy Framework, DPF). Transfers to the USA are therefore permitted if the recipient is certified under the DPF. If not, we rely on appropriate safeguards for the transfer, in particular the European Commission’s standard contractual clauses. Information about which recipients are based in third countries and the legal basis for each transfer can be found under the individual services in this Privacy Policy.

Recipients of personal data

In the course of our business activities, we work with various external parties. This sometimes requires the transfer of personal data to these external parties. We only disclose personal data to external parties if this is necessary for the performance of a contract, if we are legally required to do so (e.g. disclosure of data to tax authorities), if we have a legitimate interest in the disclosure pursuant to Art. 6(1)(f) GDPR, or if another legal basis permits the disclosure of data. When using processors, we disclose our customers’ personal data only on the basis of a valid data processing agreement. In the case of joint processing, a joint processing agreement is concluded.

Withdrawal of your consent to data processing

Many data processing operations are possible only with your express consent. You may withdraw consent already given at any time. The lawfulness of data processing carried out before withdrawal remains unaffected by the withdrawal.

Right to object to data collection in specific cases and to direct marketing (Art. 21 GDPR)

IF THE DATA PROCESSING IS BASED ON ART. 6(1)(E) OR (F) GDPR, YOU HAVE THE RIGHT AT ANY TIME TO OBJECT TO THE PROCESSING OF YOUR PERSONAL DATA ON GROUNDS RELATING TO YOUR PARTICULAR SITUATION; THIS ALSO APPLIES TO PROFILING BASED ON THESE PROVISIONS. THE RESPECTIVE LEGAL BASIS ON WHICH PROCESSING IS BASED CAN BE FOUND IN THIS PRIVACY NOTICE. IF YOU OBJECT, WE WILL NO LONGER PROCESS YOUR PERSONAL DATA CONCERNED, UNLESS WE CAN DEMONSTRATE COMPELLING LEGITIMATE GROUNDS FOR THE PROCESSING THAT OVERRIDE YOUR INTERESTS, RIGHTS AND FREEDOMS, OR THE PROCESSING SERVES THE ESTABLISHMENT, EXERCISE OR DEFENCE OF LEGAL CLAIMS (OBJECTION PURSUANT TO ART. 21(1) GDPR).

IF YOUR PERSONAL DATA ARE PROCESSED FOR THE PURPOSES OF DIRECT MARKETING, YOU HAVE THE RIGHT TO OBJECT AT ANY TIME TO THE PROCESSING OF PERSONAL DATA CONCERNING YOU FOR THE PURPOSES OF SUCH MARKETING; THIS ALSO APPLIES TO PROFILING TO THE EXTENT THAT IT IS RELATED TO SUCH DIRECT MARKETING. IF YOU OBJECT, YOUR PERSONAL DATA WILL SUBSEQUENTLY NO LONGER BE USED FOR THE PURPOSES OF DIRECT MARKETING (OBJECTION PURSUANT TO ART. 21(2) GDPR).

Right to lodge a complaint with the competent supervisory authority

In the event of violations of the GDPR, data subjects have the right to lodge a complaint with a supervisory authority, in particular in the Member State of their habitual residence, their place of work, or the place of the alleged violation. The right to lodge a complaint is without prejudice to any other administrative or judicial remedy.

Right to data portability

You have the right to have data that we process automatically on the basis of your consent or in performance of a contract provided to you or to a third party in a commonly used, machine-readable format. If you request the direct transfer of the data to another controller, this will only be done where technically feasible.

Access, correction and deletion

Within the scope of applicable legal provisions, you have the right at any time to obtain, free of charge, information about your stored personal data, its origin and recipients, and the purpose of data processing, and, where applicable, the right to have this data corrected or deleted. You may contact us at any time with regard to this and any other questions concerning personal data.

Right to restriction of processing

You have the right to request the restriction of the processing of your personal data. You may contact us at any time to do so. The right to restrict processing applies in the following cases:

  • If you dispute the accuracy of your personal data stored by us, we generally need time to verify this. For the duration of the review, you have the right to request the restriction of the processing of your personal data.
  • If the processing of your personal data was/is unlawful, you may request the restriction of data processing instead of deletion.
  • If we no longer need your personal data, but you need it to exercise, defend or establish legal claims, you have the right to request the restriction of the processing of your personal data instead of its deletion.
  • If you have lodged an objection under Art. 21(1) GDPR, your interests and ours must be weighed against each other. Until it has been determined whose interests prevail, you have the right to request the restriction of the processing of your personal data.

If you have restricted the processing of your personal data, such data may, apart from being stored, be processed only with your consent or for the establishment, exercise or defense of legal claims, or to protect the rights of another natural or legal person, or for reasons of important public interest of the European Union or a Member State.

SSL or TLS encryption

For security reasons and to protect the transmission of confidential content, such as orders or inquiries that you send to us as the website operator, this page uses SSL or TLS encryption. You can recognize an encrypted connection by the browser address bar changing from “http://” to “https://” and by the lock symbol in your browser bar.

If SSL or TLS encryption is enabled, the data you transmit to us cannot be read by third parties.

Encrypted Payment Transactions on This Website

If, after concluding a paid contract, you are required to provide us with your payment data (e.g. account number for direct debit authorization), this data is required to process the payment.

Payment transactions using the usual means of payment (Visa/MasterCard, direct debit) are carried out exclusively via an encrypted SSL or TLS connection. You can recognize an encrypted connection by the browser address bar changing from “http://” to “https://” and by the lock symbol in your browser bar.

With encrypted communication, your payment data that you transmit to us cannot be read by third parties.

Objection to Advertising Emails

We hereby object to the use of contact details published in accordance with the legal notice requirements for sending advertising and informational materials that have not been expressly requested. The operators of the pages expressly reserve the right to take legal action in the event of unsolicited advertising information being sent, for example by spam emails.

4. Data Collection on This Website

Cookies

Our websites use so-called “cookies”. Cookies are small data files and do not cause any damage to your device. They are stored on your device either temporarily for the duration of a session (session cookies) or permanently (permanent cookies). Session cookies are automatically deleted at the end of your visit. Permanent cookies remain stored on your device until you delete them yourself or your web browser automatically deletes them.

Cookies may originate from us (first-party cookies) or from third-party companies (so-called third-party cookies). Third-party cookies enable certain services provided by third-party companies to be integrated into websites (e.g. cookies used to process payment services).

Cookies serve various functions. Many cookies are technically necessary, as certain website features would not work without them (e.g. the shopping cart function or video playback). Other cookies may be used to analyze user behavior or for advertising purposes.

Cookies required to carry out electronic communications, provide certain functions you request (e.g. the shopping cart function) or optimise the website (e.g. cookies for measuring website traffic) (necessary cookies) are stored on the basis of Art. 6(1)(f) GDPR, unless another legal basis is specified. The website operator has a legitimate interest in storing necessary cookies to provide its services in a technically faultless and optimised manner. If consent to the storage of cookies and similar recognition technologies has been requested, processing takes place exclusively on the basis of this consent (Art. 6(1)(a) GDPR and § 25(1) TDDDG); consent may be withdrawn at any time.

You can configure your browser to notify you when cookies are set and to allow cookies only in individual cases, exclude the acceptance of cookies in certain cases or altogether, and activate the automatic deletion of cookies when you close your browser. Disabling cookies may limit the functionality of this website.

This privacy policy explains which cookies and services are used on this website.

Specific information about the cookies we use in connection with providing our shop through Shopify can be found at https://www.shopify.com/legal/cookies. Specific information about the cookies we use in connection with providing our shop through Petromax or third parties can be found at https://petromax.de/pages/cookies.

Consent management with Pandectes

Our website uses the Pandectes GDPR consent management solution to obtain, manage and document your consent to the storage of certain cookies on your device or the use of certain technologies in compliance with data protection laws. The provider is Pandectes, Greece.

When you visit our website, Pandectes processes technical data such as your IP address (truncated), browser information, the time and content of your consent decision. A cookie stores which consents you have granted or withdrawn. The data is stored until you ask us to delete it, delete the cookie yourself or the purpose for storing it no longer applies. Mandatory statutory retention obligations remain unaffected.

The legal basis is Art. 6(1)(c) GDPR, as we are required to obtain and document consent for the use of non-essential technologies. You can change your settings at any time using the cookie icon on the website. An overview of all cookies used can be found at https://petromax.de/pages/cookies.

Data processing

We have concluded a data processing agreement (DPA) for the use of the above-mentioned service. This is a contract required under data protection law that ensures that the provider processes the personal data of our website visitors only in accordance with our instructions and in compliance with the GDPR.

Server log files

The provider of the pages automatically collects and stores information in so-called server log files, which your browser automatically transmits to us. This includes:

  • Browser type and browser version
  • Operating system used
  • Referrer URL
  • Hostname of the accessing computer
  • Time of server request
  • IP address

This data is not combined with data from other sources.

This data is collected on the basis of Art. 6(1)(f) GDPR. The website operator has a legitimate interest in ensuring the technically error-free presentation and optimization of its website – this requires the collection of server log files.

Contact form

If you submit inquiries to us using the contact form, the information you provide in the inquiry form, including the contact details you provide there, will be stored by us for the purpose of processing your inquiry and in case of follow-up questions. We will not disclose this data without your consent.

This data is processed on the basis of Art. 6(1)(b) GDPR if your inquiry is related to the performance of a contract or is necessary for carrying out pre-contractual measures. In all other cases, processing is based on our legitimate interest in effectively handling inquiries addressed to us (Art. 6(1)(f) GDPR) or on your consent (Art. 6(1)(a) GDPR), if this was requested; consent may be withdrawn at any time.

The data you enter in the contact form will remain with us until you request its deletion, withdraw your consent to its storage, or the purpose for storing the data no longer applies (e.g. after your inquiry has been fully processed). Mandatory statutory provisions – in particular retention periods – remain unaffected.

Inquiries by email, telephone or fax

If you contact us by email, telephone or fax, your inquiry, including all personal data resulting from it (name, inquiry), will be stored and processed by us for the purpose of handling your matter. We will not disclose this data without your consent.

This data is processed on the basis of Art. 6(1)(b) GDPR if your inquiry is related to the performance of a contract or is necessary for carrying out pre-contractual measures. In all other cases, processing is based on our legitimate interest in effectively handling inquiries addressed to us (Art. 6(1)(f) GDPR) or on your consent (Art. 6(1)(a) GDPR), if this was requested; consent may be withdrawn at any time.

The data you send us in contact requests will remain with us until you ask us to delete it, withdraw your consent to its storage, or the purpose for storing the data no longer applies (e.g. after your request has been fully processed). Mandatory statutory provisions - in particular statutory retention periods - remain unaffected.

Yotpo (product reviews)

We use Yotpo for product reviews. The provider is Yotpo Ltd., 400 Lafayette Street, New York, NY 10003, USA.

We use Yotpo to collect customer reviews and display them in our online shop. Yotpo processes your IP address, device and browser data, your name, email address, order information and review.

The legal basis is Art. 6(1)(f) GDPR. Our legitimate interest is to provide customers with authentic experiences from other buyers and improve our products.

Yotpo is certified under the EU-US Data Privacy Framework. For more information, please see Yotpo's privacy policy.

Loyalty program (Yotpo Loyalty & Rewards)

If you participate in our loyalty program, we process personal data for this purpose. We also use Yotpo for the technical implementation (provider details above).

Registration and points account: A customer account and your email address are required to participate. If you already have a customer account, your data will be combined with your registration for the loyalty program. To credit and redeem points and deduct them again in the event of returns, we process information about your orders and returns (e.g. items, order and refund amounts, order number, order date). The legal basis is Art. 6(1)(b) GDPR, as this processing is necessary to operate the loyalty program. We process information you provide voluntarily on the basis of Art. 6(1)(f) GDPR; you may remove it from your customer account at any time.

Evaluation and advertising: We evaluate the data generated through the loyalty program to improve our offering and show you advertising and promotions that match your purchases. The legal basis is our legitimate interest in interest-based advertising to existing customers (Art. 6(1)(f) GDPR). We will only send you marketing emails if you have consented to our newsletter or the legal requirements for advertising to existing customers are met. You may object to this processing at any time, e.g. by email to info@petromax.de.

You can find the terms and conditions of participation in our Terms and Conditions.

Customer Service, Help Center and Live Chat (Gorgias)

We use Gorgias for our customer service, Help Center and live chat. The provider is Gorgias Inc., USA.

If you contact us via the contact form, by email to our customer service team or via chat, Gorgias processes the contents of your inquiry, your name, your email address and, where necessary to handle your inquiry, order data. Technically necessary cookies and local storage entries are set to operate the chat, allowing a conversation to continue across multiple page views. The chat may provide automated responses; you can request to speak to a member of staff at any time.

The legal basis is Art. 6(1)(b) GDPR insofar as your inquiry relates to a contract or its initiation; otherwise, it is our legitimate interest in handling inquiries efficiently (Art. 6(1)(f) GDPR). The storage of technically necessary information on the end device is carried out pursuant to § 25(2)(2) TDDDG. We rely on the EU-US Data Privacy Framework or the European Commission’s Standard Contractual Clauses for transfers to the USA.

Data processing

We have concluded a data processing agreement (DPA) for the use of the above-mentioned service. This is a contract required under data protection law that ensures that the provider processes the personal data of our website visitors only in accordance with our instructions and in compliance with the GDPR.

Communication via WhatsApp

For communicating with our customers and other third parties, we use, among other things, the WhatsApp instant messaging service. The provider is WhatsApp Ireland Limited, 4 Grand Canal Square, Grand Canal Harbour, Dublin 2, Ireland.

Communication is carried out using end-to-end encryption (peer-to-peer), which prevents WhatsApp or other third parties from accessing the content of communications. However, WhatsApp can access metadata generated in the course of the communication process (e.g. sender, recipient and time). We also point out that, according to WhatsApp, it shares its users’ personal data with its US-based parent company, Meta. Further details about data processing can be found in WhatsApp’s Privacy Policy at: https://www.whatsapp.com/legal/#privacy-policy.

WhatsApp is used on the basis of our legitimate interest in communicating as quickly and effectively as possible with customers, prospective customers and other business and contractual partners (Art. 6(1)(f) GDPR). Where corresponding consent has been requested, data is processed exclusively on the basis of that consent; it may be withdrawn at any time with effect for the future.

Communications exchanged between you and us on WhatsApp remain with us until you ask us to delete them, withdraw your consent to their storage, or the purpose for storing the data no longer applies (e.g. after we have finished handling your request). Mandatory statutory provisions – in particular, retention periods – remain unaffected.

The company is certified under the “EU-US Data Privacy Framework” (DPF). The DPF is an agreement between the European Union and the USA intended to ensure compliance with European data protection standards when processing data in the USA. Every company certified under the DPF undertakes to comply with these data protection standards. You can obtain further information from the provider at the following link: https://www.dataprivacyframework.gov/s/participant-search/participant-detail?contact=true&id=a2zt00000011sfnAAA&status=Active.

We use WhatsApp in the “WhatsApp Business” version.

Data transfers to the USA are based on the European Commission’s standard contractual clauses. You can find details here: https://www.whatsapp.com/legal/business-data-transfer-addendum.

We have configured our WhatsApp accounts so that they do not automatically synchronize data with the address books on the smartphones in use.

We have concluded a data processing agreement (DPA) with the provider named above.

Typeform

We have embedded Typeform on this website. The provider is TYPEFORM S.L., Carrer Bac de Roda, 163, 08018 Barcelona, Spain (hereinafter Typeform).

Typeform enables us to create online forms and embed them on our website. The data you enter in our Typeform forms is stored on Typeform’s servers until you ask us to delete it, withdraw any consent you have given to its storage, or the purpose for storing the data no longer applies (e.g. after we have finished handling your request). Mandatory statutory provisions – in particular, retention periods – remain unaffected.

Typeform is used on the basis of Art. 6(1)(f) GDPR. The website operator has a legitimate interest in functioning online forms. If corresponding consent has been requested, processing is carried out exclusively on the basis of Art. 6(1)(a) GDPR and § 25(1) TDDDG, insofar as the consent covers the storage of cookies or access to information on the user’s device (e.g., device fingerprinting) within the meaning of the TDDDG. Consent may be withdrawn at any time.

Data processing

We have concluded a data processing agreement (DPA) for the use of the above-mentioned service. This is a contract required under data protection law that ensures that the provider processes the personal data of our website visitors only in accordance with our instructions and in compliance with the GDPR.

Online withdrawal function (Widerruf Button EU Withdrawal)

To enable you to withdraw from your contract online, we use the Shopify app “Widerruf Button EU Withdrawal.” The provider is Eshop Guide, Husemannplatz 5a, 44787 Bochum, Germany.

If you use the withdrawal function, we process the information you provide there (e.g., name, email address, order number, the items being returned), as well as the date and time of receipt. We use this data to process your withdrawal and send you an acknowledgment of receipt by email. Technical data such as IP address and browser information may also be processed.

The legal basis is Art. 6(1)(c) GDPR, as we are legally required to provide a withdrawal function and confirm receipt (§ 356a BGB), as well as Art. 6(1)(b) GDPR for unwinding the contract. We store the data for as long as necessary to process the withdrawal and comply with statutory retention obligations.

5. Social media

Facebook

This website incorporates elements of the Facebook social network. This service is provided by Meta Platforms Ireland Limited, Merrion Road, Dublin 4, D04 X2K5, Ireland. According to Facebook, however, the data collected is also transferred to the USA and other third countries.

An overview of Facebook social media elements can be found here: https://developers.facebook.com/docs/plugins/?locale=de_DE.

When the social media element is active, a direct connection is established between your device and the Facebook server. Facebook thereby receives information that you have visited this website using your IP address. If you click the Facebook “Like” button while logged in to your Facebook account, you can link the content of this website to your Facebook profile. This allows Facebook to associate your visit to this website with your user account. Please note that, as the provider of these pages, we have no knowledge of the content of the data transmitted or how Facebook uses it. For more information, please see Facebook’s privacy policy at: https://de-de.facebook.com/privacy/explanation.

This service is used on the basis of your consent pursuant to Art. 6(1)(a) GDPR and § 25(1) TDDDG. Consent may be withdrawn at any time.

Where personal data is collected on our website using the tool described here and forwarded to Facebook, we and Meta Platforms Ireland Limited, 4 Grand Canal Square, Grand Canal Harbour, Dublin 2, Ireland, are jointly responsible for this data processing (Article 26 GDPR). This joint responsibility is limited exclusively to the collection of the data and its transfer to Facebook. The processing by Facebook that takes place after the transfer is not part of the joint responsibility. The obligations incumbent on us jointly have been set out in an agreement on joint processing.
