III. General information on data processing

1. Scope of processing of personal data

We only process our users’ personal data to the extent that this is necessary to provide a functional website, our content and services to you and to enable us to provide marketing communications to you. The processing of our users’ personal data only takes place either with the consent of the user, if the processing is necessary for the contract between you and us, or if the processing is necessary for our legitimate interests or the legitimate interests of a third party. An exception applies in such cases in which it is impracticable to obtain prior consent and the processing of the data is permitted by statutory provisions.


Your personal information may be used, stored and/or accessed by staff operating outside the UK. If we provide any personal information about you to any such non-UK members of our group, we will take appropriate measures to ensure that the recipient protects your personal information in accordance with this privacy policy. In the case of transfers to EU countries, the UK has recognised these countries as providing adequate protection under the UK GDPR.


2. Purpose of data processing

At least one of the following legal basis for processing personal data must apply: Insofar as we obtain the data subject’s consent for the processing of personal data, consent serves as the legal basis under art. 6 (1)(a) of the UK General Data Protection Regulation (UK GDPR).

Article 6(1)(b) UK GDPR provides that the lawful basis can be when processing personal data in order to fulfil a contract to which the data subject is a party,. This also applies to processing operations that are required to carry out pre-contractual measures.

Complying with a legal obligation is a lawful basis under art. 6 (1)(c) UK GDPR insofar as the processing of personal data is necessary to fulfil a legal obligation to which our company is subject .

In the event that processing of personal data is necessary to protect someone's life, vital interests is the lawful basis, under art. 6 (1)(d) UK GDPR.

If the processing is necessary to protect a legitimate interest of our company or a third party and if the interests, fundamental rights and fundamental freedoms of the data subject do not outweigh the aforementioned interest, art. 6 (1)(f) UK GDPR provides that these legitimate interests serve as the legal basis for such processing.


3. Data Deletion and Storage Duration

The data subject’s personal data will be deleted or blocked as soon as the storage purpose no longer applies. Storage can also take place if this has been provided for by the national legislator, laws or other statutory provisions to which the data processor is subject. The data will also be blocked or deleted if a storage period prescribed by the above-mentioned standards expires, unless there is a need for further storage of the data for the conclusion or fulfilment of a contract.

We use the confirmation data to document your consent and, if necessary, to prove it.

Furthermore, we may also send you our newsletter without your consent, taking into account special requirements. In the context of existing customer relationships, we are legally permitted to advertise the sale of similar goods and services by e-mail without having obtained your consent.

The affected user can cancel the newsletter subscription at any time without incurring any costs other than the transmission costs according to the basic tariffs. There is a corresponding link in every newsletter for this purpose.

Revocation of consent does not affect the lawfulness of the processing carried out on the basis of such consent. If you revoke your consent, we will delete this data and no longer send you newsletters.

4. Duration of storage

The data will be deleted as soon as they are no longer required for the purpose for which they were collected, or if you withdraw your consent.

Even after the conclusion of the contract, it may be necessary to store the contractual partner’s personal data in order to comply with contractual or legal obligations.

3. Purpose of data processing

Sovendus is a provider of after-sales vouchers. Thus: Firstly, vouchers for other online shops are offered on our site after the purchase has been completed. Secondly, our voucher offer is also displayed in other shops after the purchase has been completed. This allows us to easily generate new customers. Sovendus receives a commission for each Just Spices voucher that is redeemed (under the CPO model).

You can additionally inform us at any time that you no longer wish to receive offers from Sovendus. We would then disable the feature.


XI. Use of Google Ads (formerly Google Adwords)


1. Description and scope of data processing

On our website we use Google Ads Conversion, a web analysis service provided by Google Ireland Limited, Gordon House, Barrow Street, Dublin 4, Ireland. We use this to draw attention to our offers and services with the help of advertising material (Google Ads) on external websites. We can determine how successful the individual advertising measures are in relation to the advertising campaign data.

These advertising media are delivered by Google via ad servers. We use ad server cookies for this (see above for cookies), which can be used to measure certain success parameters, such as ad displays or user clicks. If you access our website via a Google ad, Google Ads will store a cookie on your device. These cookies usually expire after 30 days and are not intended to identify you personally. The information saved from this cookie usually includes the unique cookie ID, the number of ad impressions per placement (frequency), the last impression (relevant for post-view conversions) and opt-out information (marking indicating that the user no longer wishes to be addressed).

These cookies enable Google to recognise your internet browser. If a user visits certain pages of an Ads customer's website and the cookie stored on their computer has not yet expired, Google and the customer can recognise that the user has clicked on the advert and was redirected to this page. Each Ads customer is assigned a different cookie. This means that cookies cannot be tracked via the websites of Ads customers. The transfer of personal data to the USA takes place on the basis of the standard contractual clauses of the European Commission. Further information on handling user data can be found in the Google data protection declaration at https://www.google.de/intl/de/policies/privacy

In diesen Zwecken liegt auch unser berechtigtes Interesse in der Verarbeitung der Daten nach Art. 6 Abs. 1 lit. a) DSGVO.

For these purposes, our legitimate interest lies in the processing of the data in accordance with art. 6 (1)(a) UK GDPR.


5. Objection and deletion option

You can prevent participation in this tracking process in a number of ways:

a) by setting your browser software accordingly: in particular the suppression of third-party cookies means that you will not receive any ads from third-party providers.

b) by installing the plug-in provided by Google by clicking on the following link https://www.google.com/settings/ads/plugin.

c) by deactivating the interest-based ads of those providers who subscribe to the "About Ads" self-regulation campaign via the link http://www.aboutads.info/choices, whereby this setting will be deleted if you delete your cookies.

The information generated by the cookies about your use of our website (including your IP address) is usually transmitted to a Google server in the USA and stored there. However, by activating IP anonymisation (on our website, Google Analytics has been expanded to include the code "gat._anonymizeIp();" in order to ensure that IP addresses are recorded anonymously), within member states of the European Union or in other contracting states of the Agreement on the European Economic Area the user’s IP address is truncated before being stored by Google. The full IP address will only be sent to a Google server in the USA and truncated there in exceptional cases. The transfer of personal data to the USA takes place on the basis of the standard contractual clauses of the European Commission. This information is used by Google on our behalf to evaluate your use of our website, to compile reports for us on website activity and to provide other services related to the use of our website and the internet. Google may also transfer this information to third parties if required to do so by law or if third parties process this data on behalf of Google.

You can recognise the Facebook plug-ins on our site by the Facebook logo or the “Like button” (“Like”). You can find an overview of the Facebook plug-ins here: https://developers.facebook.com/docs/plugins/

When you visit our pages, a direct connection is established between your browser and the Facebook server via the plug-in.

If you click the Facebook "Like" button while you are logged into your Facebook account, you can link the content of our pages to your Facebook profile. This allows Facebook to associate your visit to our site with your user account.

Moreover, we maintain an online presence on Facebook, known as a fan page, in order to be able to communicate with customers, interested parties and users who are active there and to enable us to inform them about our services there. When using the fan page or the plug-ins, your data may be processed outside of the European Union. This can result in risks for you, for example because it may make it more difficult to enforce your rights.

For example, usage profiles can be created on the basis of usage behaviour and the resulting interests of users. The usage profiles can in turn be used, for example, to place advertisements within and externally to the platforms that presumably correspond to the user's interests. For these purposes, cookies containing usage behaviour and the users’ interests are usually stored on the users' computers. Furthermore, data can also be stored in the usage profiles independently of the devices used by the users.

You have the right, for reasons arising from your particular situation, to object at any time to the processing of your personal data, which is based on art. 6 (1)(e) or (f) UK GDPR; this also applies to profiling based on these provisions.

With regard to the cases referred to in (1) and (3), the data controller shall take appropriate measures to safeguard your rights and freedoms and your legitimate interests, including at least the right to obtain human intervention on the part of the data controller, to express his or her point of view and to challenge the decision.
