3. Collection of data

Generally you can access our web services without disclosing personal data to us. It is always your choice whether or not to provide us with your personal data.

If you would like to register, purchase products via our web sites or subscribe to our newsletter, the disclosure of personal data is necessary. This data includes your name, your address, your e-mail and other personal data which is requested by Quinto Bookshop in individual cases.

In addition, particular data such as IP-addresses, browser types and access times are automatically transferred by your computer and saved on our server. The IP-address is the worldwide valid, unique identification of your computer that consists of four number blocks separated by dots. Mostly, as a private user, you will not use a constant IP-address because it is only temporarily assigned to you by your provider. Nonetheless, by static IP-addresses a definite assignment of user data is principally still possible. Except for the purpose of the prosecution of illegal access to our web services we generally do not use this personal data. On an anonymous basis we only evaluate which parts of our website are favoured, the number of daily accesses and similar details. Like many other companies we make use of so-called cookies in order to design our web presence as convenient as possible. Cookies are small text files which enable the recognition of the user so that you do not have to reregister each time you visit our pages. These cookies are normally automatically deleted from your hard drive after you end visiting our website. Other cookies remain on your computer so that we can recognize you during your next visit. We make use of cookies to measure and to control the amount of web site visits and the general site navigation. Of course, you can generally also use our web presence without cookies. Your Internet browser can be configured to generally reject cookies.

We collect, process and use personal data only with your consent.

4. Use of your data

We use your personal data in order to constantly improve our range of services and to satisfy the user’s needs.

Furthermore, we use your data in order to communicate with you. This includes that we, as the case may be, inform you about novelties of our services via e-mail. Should you have subscribed to our e-mail newsletter, we use your data in order to inform you regularly about products, services or certain events which could be of interest to you. In the case that you no longer wish to receive these e-mail newsletters, you can cancel the subscription at any time. Your personal data will also be used in order to enable third parties the execution of technical, logistical and other services by our behalf. Finally, we use your data in order to protect our web pages and to trace unauthorized access.

5. Transmission of data

As a matter of course, your data will not be sold to third parties. Quinto Bookshop exclusively transmits your personal data to the following extent:

It might occur that we assign other companies or individual people with the completion of particular tasks and services.

These service providers only have access to your data to the extent which is necessary for the completion of their tasks. These service providers are obliged to treat you data according to this privacy policy and the relevant data protection statutes.

In the case that Quinto Bookshop is sold, your customer information will generally be passed on with the transmitted part of the company. Of course, in this case your data is also subject to this privacy policy and the relevant data protection statutes.
