Use of PayPal as a payment method

If you decide to pay with the online payment service provider PayPal during your order process, your contact data is transmitted to PayPal as part of the order thus triggered. PayPal is an offer of PayPal (Europe) S.à.r.l. & Cie. S.C.A., 22-24 Boulevard Royal, L-2449 Luxembourg. PayPal thereby assumes the function of an online payment service provider and a trustee and offers buyer protection services.

The personal data transmitted to PayPal is mostly first name, last name, address, telephone number, IP address, e-mail address, or other data, which is required for order processing,as well as data related to the order, such as the number of items, item number, invoice amount and tax percentage, billing information, etc.

This transmission is necessary to process your order with the payment method you have selected, in particular to confirm your identity, to administer your payment and the customer relationship. Your data is therefore transmitted to PayPal on the basis of Article 6 para. 1 lit. b GDPR.

However, please note: PayPal may transfer the personal data to service providers, to subcontractors or other affiliated companies, to the extent necessary to fulfill the contractual obligations arising from your order or to process the data in the order on your behalf.

Depending on the payment method selected via PayPal, e.g., invoice or direct debit, the personal data transmitted to PayPal will be transmitted to credit agencies by PayPal. This transmission is used to check your identity and creditworthiness in relation to the order you have placed. For information on which credit agencies are involved and which data is generally collected, processed, saved and forwarded by PayPal, please refer to PayPal’s data protection statement at https://www.paypal.com/de/webapps/mpp/ua/privacy-full
