Dear Faust Linoleum customer,
We are pleased to be able to offer you numerous products and innovations in our online shop that you will not find anywhere else. In order to process your orders and optimize our offer, we collect personal information at various points. The legally compliant and transparent handling of your personal data is very important to us. Therefore, we would like to inform you at this point about the scope of data collection, processing and use.

1. Responsible body
The body responsible for the collection, processing and use of your personal data within the meaning of the Federal Data Protection Act is romateria GmbH, Lagerplatz 30, 8400 Winterthur

2. Personal data and what we collect, process and use them for
You can visit our websites without us collecting your personal data. We only store access data without personal reference, such as the name of your internet service provider, the website from which you are visiting us and the websites that you visit on our site. This information is analyzed for statistical purposes. You as an individual user remain anonymous. We only collect personal data within the meaning of § 3 BDSG if you make it available to us, for example for the processing and processing of your order or for service requests. This includes, among other things, your name, your address, your e-mail address and all other data that you enter to order goods on faustlinoleum.ch. We collect, process and use your personal data for the entire processing of your purchase, for any subsequent guarantee or warranty claims, for customer service and administration. Your personal data will only be passed on to third parties if this is necessary for contract processing or billing. As part of the purchase process, for example, the service providers commissioned by us (including freight forwarders, parcel service providers, banks) receive the personal data they need to perform their service (e.g. delivery of the goods, emails to you with information on the shipping status) require. The forwarded information may only be used by the service providers to fulfill their task. Your data will only be used for other purposes or passed on to third parties if you have given your prior consent. When you register for the newsletter, your e-mail address will be used for our own advertising purposes until you unsubscribe from the newsletter. The deregistration is possible at any time. We will delete your personal data at your request, provided that there are no legal storage requirements to the contrary and if the data is no longer required to fulfill the purpose for which it was stored.

3. Contradiction
You have the right to object to the use of your data for advertising purposes at any time with effect for the future, provided this is permitted without your consent. You can send your objection by e-mail, fax or letter to the following contact details:

4.Cookies
“Cookies” are small files that enable us to store specific information related to you, the user, on your PC while you are visiting our website. Cookies help us to determine the frequency of use and the number of users of our website, and to make our offers as convenient and efficient as possible for you. On the one hand, we use so-called “session cookies”, which are only stored temporarily for the duration of your use of one of our Internet pages. Second, we use “permanent cookies” to record information about computers that repeatedly access our website. This enables us to offer you optimal user guidance, as well as to “recognize” you and present you with a website that is as varied as possible and new content if you use it again. The content of a permanent cookie is limited to an identification number. Your name, IP address or other information about your real identity will not be saved, and we will not create any individual profiles about your usage behavior. A use of our offers is also possible without cookies. You can deactivate the storage of cookies in your browser under Extras/Internet options, restrict it to certain websites or set your browser so that it notifies you as soon as a cookie is sent. You can also delete cookies from the hard drive of your PC at any time (e.g. Firefox: Extras > Settings > Data protection > Show cookies > Remove cookie / Remove all cookies; Internet Explorer: Extras > Internet options > Delete general browser history / Cookies). Please note, however, that in this case you must expect a restricted display of our website and restricted user guidance.

5. Web Analysis
Our website uses Piwik. This is a so-called web analysis service. Piwik uses so-called “cookies”, which are text files that are stored on your computer and enable us to analyze how the website is used. As a result, the usage information generated by the cookies (including your shortened IP address) is transmitted to our server and stored for usage analysis purposes, which serves to optimize our website. Your IP address is immediately anonymized during this process, so that you as a user remain anonymous to us. No information generated by the cookie about your use of this website will be passed on to third parties. You can prevent the use of cookies by setting your browser software accordingly. However, you may not be able to use all the functions of this website to their full extent.
If you do not want the data from your visit to be stored and evaluated, you can object to the storage and use at any time with a mouse click. In this case, an opt-out cookie is stored in your browser, which means that Piwik does not collect any session data. Attention: Deleting your cookies means that the opt-out cookie is also deleted and you may have to reactivate it.

6. Social Media

6.1 Facebook
Plugins from the social network Facebook (Facebook Inc., 1601 Willow Road, Menlo Park, California, 94025, USA) are integrated on our website. You can recognize the Facebook plugins by the Facebook logo or the “Like button” (“I like”) on our site. You can find an overview of the Facebook plugins here: developers.facebook.com/docs/plugins. When you visit our pages, a direct connection is established between your browser and the Facebook server via the plugin. Facebook receives the information that you have visited our site with your IP address. If you click the Facebook “Like” button while you are logged into your Facebook account, you can link the content of our pages to your Facebook profile. This allows Facebook to associate your visit to our site with your user account. We would like to point out that we, as the provider of the pages, have no knowledge of the content of the data transmitted or how it is used by Facebook. You can find more information on this in Facebook’s privacy policy at de-de.facebook.com/policy.php

If you do not want Facebook to be able to associate your visit to our site with your Facebook user account, please log out of your Facebook user account. Even if you are not logged in to the social networks, data can be sent to the networks from websites with active social plugins. An active plugin sets a cookie with an identifier each time the website is accessed. Since your browser sends this cookie with every connection to a network server without being asked, the network could in principle create a profile of which websites the user belonging to the ID has accessed. And it would then also be possible to assign this identifier to a person again later – for example when logging on to the social network later. If you do not want social networks to collect data about you via active plugins, you can either simply deactivate the social plugins with one click on our websites or select the “Block third-party cookies” function in your browser settings. Then the browser does not send any cookies to the server for embedded content from other providers. With this setting, however, other cross-site functions may no longer work apart from the plugins.

6.2 Twitter
Plugins from the social network Twitter (Twitter Inc., 795 Folsom St., Suite 600, San Francisco, CA 94107, USA) are integrated on our website. You can recognize the Twitter plugins by the Twitter logo or the “Re-tweet” button on our site. You can find an overview of the Twitter plugins here: dev.twitter.com/web/overview. When you visit our pages, a direct connection is established between your browser and the Twitter server via the plugin. Twitter receives the information that you have visited our site with your IP address. If you click the Twitter “Tweet button” while you are logged into your Twitter account, you can link the content of our pages on your Twitter profile. This allows Twitter to associate your visit to our site with your user account. We would like to point out that we, as the provider of the pages, have no knowledge of the content of the data transmitted or how it is used by Twitter. Further information on this can be found in Twitter’s data protection declaration at twitter.com/privacy?lang=de. If you do not want Twitter to be able to associate your visit to our site with your Twitter user account, please log out of your Twitter user account. Even if you are not logged in to the social networks, data can be sent to the networks from websites with active social plugins. An active plugin sets a cookie with an identifier each time the website is accessed. Since your browser sends this cookie with every connection to a network server without being asked, the network could in principle create a profile of which websites the user belonging to the ID has accessed. And it would then also be possible to assign this identifier to a person again later – for example when logging on to the social network later. If you do not want social networks to collect data about you via active plugins, you can either simply deactivate the social plugins with one click on our website or select the “Block third-party cookies” function in your browser settings. Then the browser does not send any cookies to the server for embedded content from other providers. With this setting, however, other cross-site functions may no longer work apart from the plugins.

6.3 Pinterest
Plugins from the social network Twitter (Pinterest, Inc., 808 Brannan St, San Francisco, CA 94103, USA) are integrated on our website. You can recognize the Pinterest plugins by the Pinterest logo or the “Pin-it” button on our site. You can find an overview of the Pinterest plugins here: developers.pinterest.com/docs/widgets/pin-it/. When you visit our pages, a direct connection is established between your browser and the Pinterest server via the plugin. Pinterest receives the information that you have visited our site with your IP address. If you click the Pinterest “Pin-it” button while you are logged into your Pinterest account, you can link the content of our pages to your Pinterest profile. This allows Pinterest to associate your visit to our site with your user account. We would like to point out that we, as the provider of the pages, have no knowledge of the content of the data transmitted or how it is used by Pinterest. For more information, see Pinterest’s privacy policy at about.pinterest.com/de/privacy-policy. If you do not want Pinterest to be able to associate your visit to our site with your Pinterest user account, please log out of your Pinterest user account. Even if you are not logged in to the social networks, data can be sent to the networks from websites with active social plugins. An active plugin sets a cookie with an identifier each time the website is accessed.
