8.3 Use of payment service providers (payment services)
• Apple Pay
If you choose the “Apple Pay” payment method from Apple Distribution International (Apple), Hollyhill Industrial Estate, Hollyhill, Cork, Ireland, the payment will be processed using the “Apple Pay” function of your device running iOS, watchOS or macOS by debiting a payment card stored with “Apple Pay”. Apple Pay uses security features built into your device's hardware and software to protect your transactions. In order to approve a payment, you must enter a code previously specified by you and verify it using the “Face ID” or “Touch ID” function of your device.
For the purpose of payment processing, the information you provided during the ordering process, along with the information about your order, will be passed on to Apple in encrypted form. Apple then encrypts this data again with a developer-specific key before the data is transmitted to the payment service provider of the payment card stored in Apple Pay to carry out the payment. Encryption ensures that only the website through which the purchase was made can access the payment details. After the payment is made, Apple sends your device account number and a transaction-specific, dynamic security code to the originating website to confirm the payment success.
If personal data is processed during the transfers described, the processing takes place exclusively for the purpose of payment processing in accordance with Article 6 (1) (b) GDPR.
Apple retains anonymized transaction information, including the approximate purchase amount, the approximate date and time, and whether the transaction was successfully completed. Anonymization completely excludes any personal reference. Apple uses the anonymized data to improve Apple Pay and other Apple products and services.
When you use Apple Pay on iPhone or Apple Watch to complete a purchase made through Safari on Mac, the Mac and the authorization device communicate over an encrypted channel on Apple's servers. Apple does not process or store any of this information in a format that can be used to identify you. You can turn off the ability to use Apple Pay on your Mac in your iPhone's settings. Go to Wallet & Apple Pay and turn off Allow Payments on Mac.

9) Retargeting/remarketing and conversion tracking
Facebook pixels for creating custom audiences
Within our online offering we use the “Facebook Pixel” service from the following provider: Meta Platforms Ireland Limited, 4 Grand Canal Quare, Dublin 2, Ireland (“Facebook”)
If a user clicks on an ad we place on Facebook, the URL of our linked page is expanded by a parameter using “Facebook Pixel”. After redirection, this URL parameter is then entered into the user's browser by a cookie that our linked page sets itself.
On the one hand, this makes it possible for Facebook to determine the visitors to our online offering as a target group for the display of advertisements (so-called “Facebook Ads”). Accordingly, we use the service to only show the Facebook ads we place to those Facebook users who have shown an interest in our online offering or who have certain characteristics (e.g. interests in certain topics or products, which are determined based on the websites visited). which we transmit to Facebook (so-called “Custom Audiences”).
On the other hand, “Facebook Pixel” can be used to track whether users were redirected to our website after clicking on a Facebook ad and what actions they took there (so-called “conversion tracking”).
The data collected is anonymous to us, so it does not allow us to draw any conclusions about the identity of the user. However, the data is stored and processed by Facebook so that a connection to the respective user profile is possible and Facebook can use the data for its own advertising purposes.
All processing described above, in particular the setting of cookies to read information on the device used, will only be carried out if you have given us your express consent to this in accordance with Article 6 (1) (a) GDPR. You can revoke your consent at any time with future effect by deactivating this service in the “cookie consent tool” provided on the website.
We have concluded an order processing agreement with the provider, which ensures the protection of our site visitors' data and prohibits unauthorized disclosure to third parties.
The information generated by Facebook is usually transferred to a Facebook server and stored there; In this context, there may also be a transfer to Meta Platforms Inc. servers in the USA.
For data transfers to the USA, the provider has joined the EU-US data protection framework (EU-US Data Privacy Framework), which ensures compliance with European data protection levels on the basis of an adequacy decision by the European Commission.
