The terms "personal data", "processing" and "processor" in the Swiss Data Protection Act correspond to the terms "personal data", "processing" and "processor" in the GDPR.

For residents of the United Kingdom: The declarations in this Data Protection Policy also apply mutatis mutandis to persons resident in the United Kingdom and also fulfil the data requirements stipulated in the UK-GDPR.

We may make changes to this Privacy Policy from time to time to reflect changes in our practices or for other operational, legal or regulatory reasons.

When you visit our website, the following categories of your data may be processed:

• Selected language
• Browser type
• Type of end device used to access the site
• Operating system
• Country
• Date, time and duration of access
• IP address
• Pages visited on our website, including entry and exit pages
• Data that you enter via a contact form

These categories of data are processed only to the extent necessary in each case. The processing of this data is justified by our legitimate interest in operating our website (Art 6 Para 1 lit f GDPR).

For the operation of our website, it may be necessary for us to transmit your data to the following recipients:

Services contingent on your consent when you visit our website

You can manage your consents or revocations of the options described in this section at any time through our "Privacy settings" banner. This is the pop-up window that appears when you visit our website for the first time, which you can also call up at any time later by clicking on the ‘Privacy settings’ link in the footer section at the bottom of our website. In all cases, however, the data processing carried out up to the time of cancellation remains justified.

Your consent to the processing of your data by services that process your data within the EU or the EEA, or in other countries for which there is a valid EU adequacy decision according to Art. 45 GDPR, are based on Art 6 Para 1 lit a GDPR. Such an adequacy decision ensures an adequate level of data protection based on the European Commission's standards.

On July 10, 2023, the European Commission published a decision regarding adequacy for the USA. According to the EU-US Data Privacy Framework (EU-US DPF), data transfers to service providers in the USA are deemed adequate if they are certified as per the Data Privacy Framework (DPF) Program.

Your consent to data processing via services that process your data in countries outside of the EU or EEA that do not have an adequacy decision, or, by services in the United States that have not yet been "Data Privacy Framework Program (DPF)" certified, is based on Art 6 para 1 lit. a in connection with Art 49(1)(a) of the GDPR (exceptions for specific cases). Your rights concerning the processing of your data in such cases cannot be guaranteed, which we hereby expressly point out before you give your consent.

"Cookies" and similar "third party services"

The above categories of data which are processed when you visit our website, may also be processed by so-called "cookies" or other "third-party services". Cookies are small text files that are stored on your device and may include, for example, personal settings, preferences, or browsing history, which can then quickly be retrieved by the web server at a later time.

Cookies required for technical purposes serve to ensure the functionality of our website only and do not require your consent. They allow you to add items to your shopping basket or enable you to log into your customer account, for example. We use these cookies required for technical purposes exclusively to the extent that is absolutely necessary. The use of these cookies required for technical purposes is determined by pre-contractual measures (Art 6 Para 1 lit b GDPR) or is justified by our overriding legitimate interest in the functionality of our website (Art 6 Para 1 lit f GDPR).

In addition to these cookies required for technical purposes, we may also use "third-party services" (e.g. "marketing cookies", "analytics cookies", "non-essential cookies", "pixel", "fingerprinting", "local/session storage" or similar technologies) if we have your prior, voluntary approval to do so. These services enable us to better understand and evaluate your interests. With the help of these services, we can merge your surfing behaviour beyond the boundaries of our website with data from other websites. This data allows us to better understand the interests of visitors to our websites and to address them in a more targeted manner. To this end, the categories of your data required for the purpose will also be transmitted to the respective service provider. We respect that not every visitor to our website wants this. Therefore, we only process your data through these third-party services if you give us your prior consent to do so.

Subject to your prior consent, the following third-party services may be activated on our websites with their respective cookies which are not required for technical purposes. You can find out which of these third-party services are available for selection at www.ohfeliz.com directly in our "privacy settings" banner.

Matching of customer data with online advertising providers

On the basis of your prior voluntary consent, we may also send you targeted ads external to our websites via the advertising channels of the online advertising providers listed below, but only if you are already registered with these providers or use their services (‘matching of customer data’ or ‘customer match’). For this purpose, we use your personal data in encrypted form to match it with the customer database of the respective providers. For this purpose, only data anonymised with an encryption process is used, which means that providers who do not already have your data will never receive your data. This is ensured by the fact that before your data is transmitted to the providers, we encrypt your data using a hash procedure, which results in a non-reversible character string (‘hash value’) that does not allow any conclusions to be drawn about your data. Only this hash value is transmitted to the providers. The providers encrypt their data using the same method. We then compare our hash value with the hash value of the provider. If our hash value matches that of one or more providers, we can be certain that you are already using the services of the respective provider and that we can therefore send you targeted ads via their advertising channels.

In order to offer you such ads through external online advertising providers, the following categories of data may be processed in addition to the data processed during your visit to our website:

• E-mail address
• Telephone number
• First name
• Last name
• Country
• Postcode
• Shopping behaviour and favourite products

Subject to your prior voluntary consent, we may send you targeted ads via the channels of the following online advertising providers after a successful ‘matching of customer data’ has been completed.

Google Enhanced Conversions

Based on your prior voluntary consent, we may use Google's ‘Enhanced Conversions’ technology. This enables us to better understand and evaluate the success of our online advertising and to optimise our advertising strategies.

We will use your personal data to compare it with Google's customer database for this purpose. However, we will only use data anonymised by an encryption process, which means that Google will never receive your data if you do not already have a Google account. This is achieved by encrypting your data using a hashing process before transmission, which results in a non-reversible character string (‘hash value’) that does not allow any information to be inferred from your data. This hash value is generated and transmitted to Google only if you carry out certain predefined actions or ‘conversions’ (such as orders) on our website. When such a conversion occurs, Google compares the hash value of your data with its own hash values, which are encrypted using the same method. If they match, your conversion can be assigned to your Google account and thus notify us of the success of our advertising placement.

The following categories of your data may be processed in encrypted and anonymised form:

• E-mail address
• Telephone number

Click Fraud Technology and Bot Detection

If you reach our website by clicking on advertisements displayed via search engines, we can use services to analyse and prevent "click fraud". Click fraud occurs when clicks on ads are generated by automated tools or when multiple clicks on ads are unlikely to be driven by genuine interest.

If our firewall detects suspicious click behaviour based on preset parameters and a potential attack on our systems cannot be ruled out, we reserve the right to carry out an automatic internal Captcha verification. The authenticity of your enquiry will be verified by asking you to solve a simple picture puzzle. This is carried out without transferring data to third parties. This is justified by our overriding legitimate interest in the security of our systems (Article 6(1)(f) GDPR).

E-mail Newsletter

The following categories of data may be processed (in addition to the data processed during your visit to our website) when you subscribe to our e-mail newsletters:

• E-mail address
• Favourite products that match your personal choice

The processing of this data is based on your voluntary consent (Art 6 Para 1 lit a GDPR). You can revoke this consent at any time by unsubscribing via the link provided in each newsletter or via your existing customer account, whereby the data processed up to the time of revocation remains justified. You are not obliged to provide this data, but we cannot provide you with a newsletter subscription without it.

In order to send our e-mail newsletters, it may be necessary for us to transmit your data to the following recipients:

When you contact us, the following categories of your data may be processed (in addition to the data processed during your visit to our website):

• Name
• Contact details
• E-mail address
• Telephone number
• Any order data
• Correspondence data, including any data you provide to us during communication

We process this data for the following purposes:

• Handling customer enquiries, customer care and other customer support services via e-mail, chat or telephone.

These categories of data are processed to the extent necessary for each case. The processing of this data is justified by our overriding legitimate interest in efficient and satisfactory communication (Art 6 Para 1 lit f GDPR).

For this purpose, it may be necessary for us to transmit your data to the following recipients:

• Legally mandated notifications pertaining to product safety
• Prevention and clarification of cases of fraud or attempted fraud
• Assertion and defence of legal claims

Processing these categories of data occurs to the extent necessary in each case and required for the fulfilment of the contract (Art 6 para 1 lit b GDPR), required for the fulfilment of our legal obligations (Art 6 para 1 lit c GDPR) or is justified by our overriding legitimate interest in smoothly running our business (Art 6 para 1 lit f GDPR).

It may be necessary for us to transmit your data to the following categories of recipients as required for the use in our webshop:

Customer Account

You have the option of registering for a customer account. If you do so, the following categories of your data may also be processed:

• Order history and wish lists
• Product data (ratings, testimonials, questions, and answers about products)
• Assigned customer number
• Customer segmentation

We process this data for the following purposes:

• Storage of your information in your customer account, including the publication of your ratings, reviews, questions, and answers about products, insofar as you do this independently
• Customer segmentation carried out to offer benefits or discounts.

This data is processed based on your voluntary consent (Art 6 para 1 lit a GDPR) and is justified by our overriding legitimate interest in evaluating our product reviews and customer segmentation (Art. 6 Para. 1 lit f GDPR). ou may revoke your consent to the storage of your customer account at any time, whereby the data processed up to the time of revocation remains justified. To delete your customer account and all personal data stored in it, you can select the menu item "Delete my customer account" in your customer account. You are not obliged to register for a customer account, but we cannot provide you with the additional services mentioned above without a customer account.

In connection with testimonials or questions & answers about products, we may be legally required by the EU regulations for digital services (Digital Services Act) to contact you due to a restriction on content provided by you (Art 6 para 1 lit c GDPR).

Sovendus Voucher Network

Based on your prior voluntary consent (Art. 6(1)(a) GDPR) through our "Cookie Banner" (see Section 1), we can display offers by the Sovendus coupon network after completing an order. For this purpose, the pseudonymised, encrypted hash value of your email address and your IP address will be transmitted to Sovendus GmbH, Hermann-Veit-Str. 6, 76135 Karlsruhe, Germany (Legal basis Sovendus: Art. 6(1)(f) GDPR). Sovendus will use the pseudonymised hash value of your email address to take into consideration any objections to advertising from Sovendus (Art. 21(3), Art. 6(1)(c) GDPR). The IP address will be used by Sovendus exclusively for data security purposes and will generally be anonymised after seven days (Art. 6(1)(f) GDPR). Furthermore, for billing purposes, the pseudonymised order number, order value with currency, session ID, coupon code, and timestamp will be transmitted to Sovendus (Art. 6(1)(f) GDPR). If you wish to accept a Sovendus voucher and have not objected to advertising material being sent to your email address, and you click on the coupon banner displayed only in this instance, we will also transmit encrypted information such as your name, postal code, country, and email address to Sovendus for use in the preparation of your voucher (Art. 6(1)(b), (f) GDPR). For further information on how Sovendus processes your data, please refer to Sovendus' online data privacy policy.

If you have a business relationship with us as a partner or supplier, we may process the following categories of your data:

• Name
• Company data
• Contact details
• E-mail address
• Telephone number
• Business data, order, delivery and invoice data
• Correspondence data, including all data that you provide to us in connection with our business relationship.

We process this data for the following purposes:

• The initiation, maintenance and processing of our entire business relationship with you (e.g. pre-contractual obligations, invoicing of services, dispatch of documents, communication for processing the contract).
• Legally required storage as defined by the § 132 BAO (Federal Fiscal Code)
• Internal administration and management of our business relationship to the extent required (e.g.: Processing your business case, forwarding business cases to various departments, filing, archiving purposes, correspondence with you).
• Assertion and defence of legal claims

These categories of data are processed to the extent necessary in each case. If you do not provide us with this data, we will unfortunately not be able to process your business transaction.

Processing this data is necessary for the contractual fulfilment of our business relationship (Art 6 Para 1 lit b GDPR), necessary for the fulfilment of our legal obligations in connection with retention periods (Art 6 para 1 lit c GDPR) or justified by our overriding legitimate interest smoothly running our business (Art 6 Para 1 lit f GDPR).

We only store your data for as long as is necessary for the purposes for which we collected your data. In this context, statutory retention obligations must be taken into account (for example, for reasons of tax law, contracts, order data or other documents from a contractual relationship must generally be retained for a period of seven years (§ 132 BAO)). Your name, address, purchased goods and date of purchase are also stored until the product liability expires (after 10 years according to § 13 Product Liability Law). In justified individual cases, such as for the assertion and defence of legal claims, we may also store your data for up to 30 years after the termination of the business relationship.

We store the data that we process in the context of contacting you for up to three years from the time you last contacted us.

Data is only collected from other sources if you wish to enter into a business relationship with us as a partner or supplier in accordance with point 5. For this purpose, it may be necessary to carry out research on the business partner. This will only be done to the extent required. In this context, data may be retrieved and processed from the following sources:

No automated decision-making takes place on our website. However, over the order process, it is possible that the respective payment service provider uses profiling for fraud detection.

We would like to inform you that, provided that the legal requirements are met, you have the right to:

• request information about what personal data we're processing (see Art 15 GDPR for more details)
• demand the correction or completion of incorrect or incomplete data concerning you (see Art 16 GDPR for details)
• delete your data (see Art 17 GDPR for details), provided there are no legitimate reasons to the contrary
• restrict the processing of your data (see Art. 18 GDPR for details)
• data portability - receipt of the data you have provided in a structured, common and machine-readable format (see Art. 20 of the GDPR).
• object to the processing of your data based on Article 6(1)(e) or (f) of the GDPR (see Art 21 of the GDPR). This applies particularly to the processing of your data for advertising purposes.

If we process your data on the basis of your consent, you have the right to revoke this consent at any time. This will not affect the lawfulness of the data processed up to that point (Art 7 (3) GDPR).

If, contrary to expectations, your right to lawful processing of your data is violated, please contact us. We will endeavour to deal with your request promptly, at the latest within the statutory period of one month. You also always have the right to lodge a complaint with the supervisory authority responsible for data protection matters.
