seriously. We treat your personal data confidentially and in accordance with the
statutory data protection regulations and this privacy policy.

When you use this website, various personal data is collected.

Personal data is data that can be used to identify you personally. This privacy
policy explains what data we collect and what we use it for. It also explains
how and for what purpose this is done.

We would like to point out that data transmission over the Internet (e.g. when
communicating by e-mail) can have security gaps. It is not possible to
completely protect data from access by third parties.


NOTE ON THE RESPONSIBLE BODY

The party responsible for processing data on this website is:

GHOST-Bikes GmbH

An der Tongrube 3

95652 Waldsassen

Phone: 09632-92550

Email: info@ghost-bikes.de

The responsible party is the natural or legal person who alone or jointly with
others decides on the purposes and means of processing personal data (names,
email addresses, etc.).


SPEICHERDAUER

Unless a more specific storage period has been specified within this data
protection declaration, your personal data will remain with us until the purpose
for data processing no longer applies. If you assert a legitimate request for
deletion or revoke your consent to data processing, your data will be deleted

NOTE ON DATA TRANSFER TO THE USA AND OTHER THIRD COUNTRIES

Among other things, we use tools from companies based in the USA or other third
countries that are not secure in terms of data protection. If these tools are
active, your personal data may be transferred to these third countries and
processed there. We would like to point out that no level of data protection
comparable to that in the EU can be guaranteed in these countries. For example,
U.S. companies are obliged to hand over personal data to security authorities
without you, as the data subject, being able to take legal action against this.
Therefore, it cannot be ruled out that US authorities (e.g. secret services) may
process, evaluate and permanently store your data located on US servers for
monitoring purposes. We have no influence on these processing activities.


REVOCATION OF YOUR CONSENT TO DATA PROCESSING

Many data processing operations are only possible with your express consent. You
can revoke your consent at any time. The legality of the data processing carried
out until the revocation remains unaffected by the revocation.

SERVES THE PURPOSE OF ASSERTING, EXERCISING OR DEFENDING LEGAL CLAIMS (OBJECTION
PURSUANT TO ART. 21 (1) GDPR).

YOUR PERSONAL DATA IS PROCESSED FOR DIRECT MARKETING PURPOSES,

THUS, YOU HAVE THE RIGHT TO OBJECT AT ANY TIME TO THE PROCESSING OF YOUR

PERSONAL DATA CONCERNED FOR THE PURPOSE OF SUCH ADVERTISING

TO PICKLE; THIS APPLIES TO PROFILING TO THE EXTENT THAT IT IS CONNECTED TO SUCH
DIRECT MARKETING IN

CONNECTION IS ESTABLISHED. IF YOU OBJECT, YOUR PERSONAL DATA WILL SUBSEQUENTLY
NO LONGER BE USED FOR THE PURPOSE OF DIRECT ADVERTISING (OBJECTION PURSUANT TO
ART. 21 (2) GDPR).


RIGHT TO LODGE A COMPLAINT WITH THE COMPETENT SUPERVISORY AUTHORITY

In the event of violations of the GDPR, data subjects have the right to lodge a
complaint with a

supervisory authority, in particular in the Member State of their habitual
residence, their place of work or the place of the alleged infringement. The
right to lodge a complaint is without prejudice to any other administrative or
judicial remedies.


RIGHT TO DATA PORTABILITY

You have the right to have data that we process automatically on the basis of
your consent or in fulfillment of a contract handed over to you or to a third
party in a common, machine-readable format. If you request the direct transfer

that it is technically feasible.

subject of personal data, you can contact us at any time.


RIGHT TO RESTRICTION OF PROCESSING

You have the right to request the restriction of the processing of your personal
data. You can contact us at any time. The right to restriction of processing
exists in the following cases:

 If you dispute the accuracy of your personal data stored by us, we need

usually time to check. For the duration of the verification, you have the right
to request the restriction of the processing of your personal data.

If the processing of your personal data was/is unlawful, you can request the
restriction of data processing instead of deletion.

If we no longer need your personal data, but you use it for the purpose of
exercising it,

If you wish to defend or assert legal claims, you have the right to request the
restriction of the processing of your personal data instead of deletion.

 If you have lodged an objection pursuant to Art. 21 para. 1 GDPR, a balance
must be struck between your interests and ours. As long as it has not yet been
determined whose interests prevail, you have the right to request that the
processing of your personal data be restricted.

If you have restricted the processing of your personal data, this data may only
be processed – apart from being stored – with your consent or for the purpose of
asserting, exercising or defending legal claims or protecting the rights of
another natural or legal person or for reasons of important public interest of
the European Union or a Member State.

imprint obligation for the purpose of sending unsolicited advertising and
information material. The operators of the pages expressly reserve the right to

SMARTFIT

You can use Smartfit Online Sizing on our website. Smartfit is a solution from
Radlabor GmbHHeinrich-von-Stephan-Str. 5c 79100 Freiburg
(https://www.onlinesizing.bike/).

You can download the application on our website.

To get a size recommendation for a specific bike, you can submit the following
information through the application:

 * Gender (mandatory)

 * Height (mandatory)

 * Leg length (optional)

 * Arm length (optional)

Smartfit calculates a specific size recommendation for a bike by using
algorithms that find the right bike size based on your anthropometric data and
gender. In some cases, you can transfer your preferred bike size from the
application to your personal shopping cart via a button on the results screen.


USE OF PERSONAL DATA FROM OUR APPLICATION

We use your personal data from the application exclusively for the following
purposes:

 * Recommendation of bike sizes in real time.

 * Providing fit prediction services in our partners' online stores.

 * Optimizing the overall quality of our referral mechanisms.

 * Statistical analysis of the number of bicycle sizes over time.

All personal data is processed anonymously and Smartfit never collects or
processes personal data (e.g. real name, address data, payment information). All
data is stored on servers and databases located either in Frankfurt, Germany, or
in Nuremberg, Germany. No data will be transferred outside the European Union.
All data is automatically deleted after a certain retention period.

We do not use any data for marketing or advertising purposes.


COOKIES

We use a local storage cookie to store the following information:

 * Gender (mandatory)

 * Height (mandatory)

 * Leg length (if specified by the user)

 * Arm length (if specified by the user)

We store this data together with a session identifier in your local storage. The
cookie is considered necessary for technical reasons. Without the cookie, the
Online Sizing Widget cannot be used sensibly. The cookie allows us to identify
returning users so that you do not have to re-enter your basic information when
you use the application again. The token (JWT) is renewed after a user has been
inactive for 4 hours.

In some cases, the cookie allows the immediate display of size recommendations
on the product detail pages of our partners' webshops without using the
application again. In some cases, our application transmits the recommended size
to a partner store (i.e. so that the recommended size is automatically selected
in a dropdown on the product page). When the Smartfit Recommendation Engine
feature is enabled, you don't have to re-enter your basic information with the
recommended bikes displayed in new browser tabs.


SAFETY AND SECURITY

We use appropriate technical and organizational security measures to protect
your data against accidental or intentional manipulation, partial or complete
loss and/or destruction as well as against access by unauthorized persons. Our
security measures are subject to continuous improvement in line with current
technological developments.

Further data processing by Radlabor GmbH - in the sense of independent or
instruction-bound data processing - does not take place!

Data processing by social networks

We maintain publicly accessible profiles on social networks. The individual
social networks we use are listed below.

Social networks such as Facebook, Instagram and TikTok can generally analyse
your user behaviour comprehensively when you visit their website or a website
with integrated social media content (e.g. like buttons or advertising banners).
Visiting our social media presences triggers numerous data protection-relevant
processing operations. In detail:

If you are logged into your social media account and visit our social media
presence, the operator of the social media portal can assign this visit to your
user account. However, your personal data may also be collected if you are not
logged in or do not have an account with the respective social media portal. In
this case, this data collection takes place, for example, via cookies that are
stored on your end device or by recording your IP address.

With the help of the data collected in this way, the operators of the social
media portals can create user profiles in which your preferences and interests
are stored. In this way, interest-based advertising can be displayed to you
inside and outside the respective social media presence. If you have an account
with the respective social network, the interest-based advertising can be
displayed on all devices on which you are logged in or have been logged in.

Please also note that we cannot track all processing operations on the social
media portals. Depending on the provider, further processing operations may
therefore be carried out by the operators of the social media portals. For

responsible with the operator of the social media platform for the data
processing activities triggered during your visit. You can assert your rights
(access, rectification, deletion, restriction of processing, data portability,
and complaint) both with us and with the operator of the respective social media
portal (e.g., Facebook).

Please note that despite our joint responsibility with the social media platform
operators, we do not have full control over the data processing activities of
the social media portals. Our capabilities largely depend on the corporate
policies of the respective provider.

Storage Duration

Data directly collected by us via social media presence will be deleted from our
systems once you request deletion, revoke your consent for storage, or the
purpose for data storage ceases to exist. Stored cookies remain on your device
until you delete them. Mandatory legal provisions, especially retention periods,
remain unaffected.

We do not have control over the storage duration of your data stored by social
network operators for their own purposes. For details, please refer directly to
the social network operators' privacy policies (e.g., in their privacy policy
below).
