Cookie Policy

The website muchandy.de uses cookies and similar technologies only to the extent necessary for the secure and proper functioning of the website and, where applicable, on the basis of users’ consent for additional features, analytics and marketing.

This Cookie Policy explains which technologies may be used, for what purposes, on what legal basis, and how users can manage their preferences.

1. What are cookies and similar technologies?

Cookies are small text files that are stored on your device when you visit a website. In addition to cookies, similar technologies such as local storage, pixels, tags and scripts may also be used, provided they are technically necessary or consent has been given.

2. What categories do we use?

a) Strictly necessary cookies

These cookies and technologies are necessary for the basic functioning of the website, security, stability, navigation, the display of content, the storage of privacy settings, shopping basket functions and the completion of orders.

These cookies do not require prior consent provided they are strictly necessary from a technical point of view to provide a service explicitly requested by the user.

b) Functional cookies

These cookies enable the website to remember certain user preferences, such as language, region or other settings, to make the user experience more convenient and personalised.

Unless such cookies are strictly necessary, they will only be activated once you have given your consent.

c) Analytics cookies

These cookies help us understand how the website is used, which pages are visited, how long users stay on the site, and whether any technical issues arise, so that we can improve the content and performance of the site.

These cookies will only be set with your prior consent, unless the specific technology is implemented in such a way that consent is not required under applicable law.

d) Marketing-Cookies

These cookies may be used to measure the success of campaigns, display more relevant content or advertising, and limit the frequency of adverts.

They will only be activated with your prior consent.

3. Legal basis

For strictly necessary cookies and similar technologies, the legal basis is technical necessity and/or the need to provide a service expressly requested by the user.

muchandy.de only uses cookies and technologies that are not strictly necessary once valid consent has been given via the cookie settings.

4. Consent management

When users visit the website for the first time, they are shown a cookie management tool that allows them to:

• accept all,
• reject all unnecessary categories,
• or customise their settings.

You can change or withdraw your consent at any time via the link “Cookie settings” on the website.

Withdrawing consent does not affect the lawfulness of any processing carried out prior to the withdrawal.

5. Third-party cookies

When we use third-party services such as analytics tools, payment services, embedded content, advertising or social media features, these services may use their own cookies or similar technologies.

Where necessary, we endeavour to activate such services only after obtaining the relevant consent, unless they are technically essential. Processing by third parties is also subject to their own privacy policies.

6. Retention period

Cookies can be:

• Session cookies, which are deleted when the browser is closed, or
• Persistent cookies, which remain stored for a specific period of time or are deleted manually.

The exact duration depends on the specific technology and provider.

7. Restrictions on information and compliance

Muchandy.de endeavours to ensure that the information in this Cookie Policy is accurate, complete and up to date. However, the actual scope of the cookies and similar technologies used may change due to technical changes, updates to third-party services or changes to the website’s functionality.

We therefore reserve the right to amend this Cookie Policy at any time to bring it into line with current technical developments and applicable legal requirements. The version published on this page shall always be the authoritative one.

Should any provision of this Cookie Policy be wholly or partially invalid, unenforceable or incomplete, this shall not affect the validity of the remaining provisions.

8. Users’ responsibilities

Users can manage cookies at any time via our consent tool or through their browser settings. Blocking certain technologies may affect the availability or proper functioning of certain parts of the website.
