The legal basis for processing this data is our legitimate interest in answering your request according to Article 6(1)(f) GDPR.

6. Data Processing for Order Processing
   6.1 To the extent required for contract fulfillment regarding delivery and payment purposes, the personal data we collect is transmitted in accordance with Article 6(1)(b) GDPR to the contracted transport company and the contracted bank.

If we owe you updates for goods with digital elements or digital products based on a relevant contract, we process the contact data you provided during the order (name, address, email address) to inform you personally within the legally prescribed period about upcoming updates. This is done in accordance with our legal obligations to inform you under Article 6(1)(c) GDPR.

6.2 Credit Check
If we make advance payments (e.g., delivery on invoice), we reserve the right to perform a credit check based on mathematical-statistical procedures to protect our legitimate interest in determining the creditworthiness of our customers. The personal data necessary for a credit check will be transmitted in accordance with Article 6(1)(f) GDPR to the following service provider:

Creditreform Rosenheim Ganzmüller & Groher KG, Oberaustraße 16, 83026 Rosenheim, Germany

The credit report may include probability values (so-called score values). If score values are included in the credit report, they are based on a scientifically recognized mathematical-statistical procedure. Address data, among others, is used in the calculation of the score values. We use the result of the credit check regarding the statistical likelihood of payment default to decide on the establishment, execution, or termination of a contractual relationship.
