Service providers used from the USA are generally certified under the EU-U.S. Data Privacy Framework (DPF). Further information can be found here. If the service providers used are not certified under the DPF, standard contractual clauses have been concluded as a suitable guarantee. When the Trustbadge is accessed, the web server automatically saves a so-called server log file, which also contains your IP address, the date and time of access, the amount of data transferred and the requesting provider (access data) and documents the access. The IP address is anonymized immediately after collection so that the stored data cannot be assigned to your person. The anonymized data is used in particular for statistical purposes and for error analysis.

8.2 Data processing after order completion

If you have given your consent, the Trustbadge accesses the order information stored in your end device (order total, order number, product purchased if applicable) and e-mail address after the order has been completed and your e-mail address is hashed using a cryptological one-way function. The hash value is then transmitted to Trusted Shops with the order information in accordance with Art. 6 para. 1 sentence 1 lit. a GDPR.
This serves to check whether you are already registered for Trusted Shops services. If this is the case, further processing will be carried out in accordance with the contractual agreement concluded between you and Trusted Shops. If you are not yet registered for the services or do not give your consent to automatic recognition via the Trustbadge, you will then be given the opportunity to register manually for the use of the services or to complete the protection as part of your existing user contract. For this purpose, the Trustbadge accesses the following information, which is stored in the end device you are using, after you have completed your order: Order total, order number and e-mail address. This is necessary so that we can offer you buyer protection. The data will only be transmitted to Trusted Shops if you actively decide to take out buyer protection by clicking on the correspondingly labeled button in the so-called Trustcard.
