Credit card data is never stored with us. Nevertheless, the protection of your payment-related information has the highest priority for transactions with credit card data.

This approach virtually eliminates the misuse of your data.
If there is a problem with your Webshop order, we might contact you to allow us the use of remote shopping assistance. In this case we will use the remote shopping assistance and your Webshop data only for the purpose of resolving the problem with your Webshop order and will deactivate the the remote shopping assistance as soon as the problem has been resolved.
