Your Rights
10.1 Contact Options
The controller responsible for data processing is: Amir Amrami, Isoldestr. 4, Berlin, Email: info@arrowsmartech.de. We are pleased about your interest in our website. The protection of your privacy is very important to us. Below we inform you in detail about the handling of your data.
1. Access Data and Hosting
You can visit our websites without providing any personal information. Every time a website is accessed, the web server merely automatically stores a so-called server log file, which contains, for example, the name of the requested file, your IP address, the date and time of access, the amount of data transferred, and the requesting provider (access data) and documents the access. This access data is evaluated exclusively for the purpose of ensuring trouble-free operation of the site and improving our offer. This serves to protect our legitimate interests in a correct presentation of our offer, which outweigh our interests in the context of a balancing of interests according to Art. 6 Para. 1 Sentence 1 lit. f GDPR. All access data will only be processed as long as is necessary to achieve the processing purposes mentioned above. The services for hosting and displaying the website are partly provided by our service providers as part of processing on our behalf. Unless otherwise explained in this privacy policy, all access data and all data collected in forms provided for this purpose on this website are processed on their servers. If you have any questions about our service providers and the basis of our cooperation with them, please use the contact option described in this privacy policy. Our service providers are located and/or use servers in the following countries for which the European Commission has determined an adequate level of data protection by decision: Brazil, Israel, United Kingdom, USA. The adequacy decision for the USA serves as the basis for the transfer to third countries, provided that the respective service provider is certified. A certification is available. Our service providers are located and/or use servers in these countries: Mexico, India, Ukraine. There is no adequacy decision by the European Commission for these countries. Our cooperation with you is based on these guarantees: Standard Data Protection Clauses of the European Union.

Mandatory fields are marked as such, as in these cases we absolutely require the data for contract fulfillment and cannot send the order without providing it. Which data is collected can be seen from the respective input forms. Further information on the processing of your data, in particular on the transfer to our service providers for the purpose of order, payment, and shipping processing, can be found in the following sections of this privacy policy. After the contract has been fully processed, your data will be restricted for further processing and deleted after the expiry of the retention periods under tax and commercial law according to Art. 6 Para. 1 Sentence 1 lit. c GDPR, unless you have expressly consented to further use of your data according to Art. 6 Para. 1 Sentence 1 lit. a GDPR or we reserve the right to use data beyond this, which is permitted by law and about which we inform you in this statement.
2.2 Customer Account
Insofar as you have given your consent according to Art. 6 Para. 1 Sentence 1 lit. a GDPR by choosing to open a customer account, we use your data for the purpose of opening a customer account and for storing your data for further future orders on our website.

Depending on the selected payment method, data may be transferred to third countries outside the EU/EEA for which the European Commission has determined an adequate level of data protection by decision.
