Customers making purchases in our store may choose to provide personal data for warranty purposes or other matters. When you order online you always provide your personal data, since that is necessary in order to purchase. Also by emailing us or filling in forms on our website, you may provide us with personal data. We only store and use the personal data that you have provided to us directly or when it is clear that the data you have provided are intended for processing.

Your personal data is only shared with third parties for the purpose of processing orders, for invoicing or warranty purposes. When processing orders, for example, the service companies used by us (transport companies, logistics companies, banks) are sent the data they require for processing and concluding orders. The data shared with our service providers in this context may only be used by them for fulfilling their duties.
We also use your information to improve our newsletters. A skier may not need information about sleeping bags and a camper may not be interested in ski helmets. We may use data from previous purchases and orders and may use what you find interesting and click on in newsletters.
When we store your data we will take reasonable technical and organisational precautions to prevent the loss and misuse of your personal data. With both technical and organizational measures, we secure our website and other systems against distribution and access of your data by unauthorized persons.

We may also use your order history for our newsletters.
