Non-provision of the data has no consequences. This only applies insofar as no other information is provided in the subsequent processing operations.

Initiative contact of the customer by e-mail

If you contact us by e-mail on your own initiative, we will only collect your personal data (name, e-mail address, message text) to the extent that you have provided it. The data processing serves to process and answer your contact request.
If the purpose of the contact is to carry out pre-contractual measures (e.g. advice in the event of an interest to buy, preparation of an offer) or if it concerns a contract already concluded between you and us, this data processing is carried out on the basis of Art. 6 para. 1 letter b DSGVO.
If contact is established for other reasons, this data processing is carried out on the basis of Art. 6 Para. 1 letter f DSGVO because of our overwhelmingly justified interest in processing and answering your enquiry. In this case, you have the right to object at any time, for reasons arising from your particular situation, to the processing of personal data relating to you on the basis of Art. 6 Paragraph 1 letter f DSGVO.
We will only use your e-mail address to process your enquiry. Your data will then be deleted in compliance with statutory retention periods, unless you have consented to further processing and use.

Your data will be passed on, for example, to the mail-order companies and dropshipping providers you have selected, payment service providers, service providers for order processing and IT service providers.
