We know that the careful handling of your personal data is very important to you. Since the protection of your personal data at Glorious takes a very high priority, we comply with the collection, processing and use of your data to the provisions of the Federal Data Protection Act (FDPA), the Telemedia Act (TMA), and the General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR). Basically, you can visit our website without leaving any personal information.
However, in some cases we may require personal information from you:
- when visiting the website
- when contacting us
- when sending the newsletter
- watching YouTube videos on our website
All personal information will be treated confidentially. Your data will help us to constantly improve your experience on www.glorious.de.

You have the right to free information, correction, blocking and possibly deletion of your stored data at any time. Please contact our e-mail address or send us your request by mail. To get in contact with you easier and faster than by post, we kindly ask you to tell us your e-mail address.
1) When does Glorious use and process personal data?
We will not disclose your personal data including your house address and e-mail address to third parties without your explicit and revocable consent.
Server protocal data
Our web server processes a series of data for each request, which your browser automatically transmits to our web server. These are:
- Browser type and browser version
- Operating system used
- Referrer URL
- Host name of the accessing computer
- Time of the server request
- IP address
There is no merge of this data with other data sources. The basis for data processing is Art. 6 para. 1 lit. b GDPR, which allows the processing of data to fulfill a contract or pre-contractual measures.
Contact
Data submitted via a support or spare part request will be stored, including your contact details, to process your request or to be available for follow-up questions. A disclosure of this data will not take place without your consent.
The processing of the data entered into the contact form takes place exclusively on the basis of your consent (Art. 6 (1) lit. GDPR). A revocation of your already given consent is possible at any time. For the revocation an informal message by e-mail is sufficient. The legality of the data processing operations carried out until the revocation remains unaffected by the revocation.
Data submitted via the contact form will remain with us until you request us to delete it, revoke your consent to storage, or no longer need to store data. Mandatory statutory provisions - especially retention periods - remain unaffected.
Newsletter subscription
The newsletter is dispatched by “MailChimp”, a newsletter distribution platform of the US provider Rocket Science Group, LLC, 675 Ponce De Leon Ave NE #5000, Atlanta, GA 30308, USA
The email addresses of our newsletter recipients and their further details described in this information are stored on the MailChimp servers in the USA. MailChimp uses this information to send and evaluate the newsletters on our behalf. MailChimp can by its own admission also use this data to enhance or improve its own services, e.g. to technically enhance the dispatch procedure and display of the newsletter or for commercial purposes to be able to determine which countries the recipients are from. However, MailChimp will not use the data of our newsletter recipients to contact them itself or forward it to third parties.
We trust the reliability, IT security and data security of MailChimp. MailChimp is certified under the US-EU data privacy agreement “Privacy Shield“ and agrees to comply with the EU data privacy guidelines. We have also concluded a “Data Processing Agreement“ with MailChimp. This is an agreement in which MailChimp is obligated to protect the data of our users, to process it in accordance with its privacy policy on our behalf and must not forward this information to third parties. You can view the MailChimp privacy policy here.
You can revoke your consent to the use of your e-mail address for sending the newsletter at any time. The revocation can be made via a link in the newsletter itself or by sending a message to dataprivacy@global-distribution.de.
YouTube
Our website uses plugins from YouTube (YouTube, LLC, 901 Cherry Ave., San Bruno, CA 94066, USA).
When you visit one of our YouTube plug-in-enabled sites, you will be connected to the servers of YouTube. The Youtube server will be informed which of our pages you visited.
If you're logged in to your YouTube account, YouTube allows you to associate your browsing behavior directly with your personal profile. You can prevent this by logging out of your YouTube account.

Transfer to third parties
It is expressly clarified that, in this context, the data will not be passed on to companies for economic use that would be contrary to this privacy policy.
We disclose customer accounts and personal information about customers when required to do so by law or when such disclosure is required to enforce our claims or to protect our rights and the rights of our customers and third parties.
Of course you can revoke the permission for the use, processing and disclosure of the data for marketing purposes at any time by sending us a message via e-mail or mail.
In any case, we ask that you provide us with the full name, zip code and location so that we can process the request. Please also always note whether the entire permission for the use and processing of data for marketing purposes should be revoked by Glorious (for example for advertising by newsletter).
After receiving your objection or revocation, we will no longer use and process the data affected for our own marketing purposes or stop sending further advertising material such as newsletters immediately and / or not pass on your data to third parties.
2) How does Glorious protect personal data?
Your personal data is transmitted encrypted using SSL v3, 256 bit RSA with 2048 bit transfer. Should another, still safe procedure become common, we will use this. We use technical and organizational security measures to protect the data we manage against accidental or intentional manipulation, loss, destruction or access by unauthorized persons.

Use of Google Analytics for web analysis
This website uses Google Analytics, a web analysis service of Google Ireland Limited (Gordon House, Barrow Street, Dublin 4, Ireland; "Google"). The use includes the "Google Analytics 4" operating mode. This facilitates the assignment of data, sessions and interactions across several devices to a pseudonymous user ID and thus the analysis of a user's activities across devices.
Google Analytics uses "cookies", which are text files placed on your computer, to allow the website operator to analyze how users use the site. The information generated by the cookie about your use of this website is usually transferred to a Google server in the USA and stored there. However, if IP anonymisation is activated on this website, Google will reduce your IP address within Member States of the European Union or in other states party to the Agreement on the European Economic Area beforehand. Only in exceptional cases will the full IP address be transmitted to a Google server in the USA and shortened there. The IP address transmitted by your browser in the context of Google Analytics is not merged with other Google data. On behalf of the operator of this website, Google will use this information to evaluate your use of the website, to compile reports on website activity and to provide the website operator with other services related to website and Internet use. Our legitimate interest in data processing also lies in these purposes. The legal basis for the use of Google Analytics is § 15 para. 3 TMG and Art. 6 para. 1 lit. f GDPR. The data sent by us and linked to cookies, user-identifiers (e.g. User-IDs) or advertising-identifiers are automatically deleted after 14 months. Data whose retention period has been reached is automatically deleted once a month. For more information on terms of use and data protection, please visit https://www.google.com/analytics/terms/gb.html or https://policies.google.com/?hl=en.
You may refuse the use of cookies by selecting the appropriate settings on your browser, however please note that if you do this you may not be able to use the full functionality of this website. You can also prevent Google from collecting the data generated by the cookie and relating to your use of the website (including your IP address) and from processing this data by Google by downloading and installing this Browser Add-on. Opt-out cookies prevent the future collection of your data when you visit this website. To prevent Analytics from collecting data across several devices, you must opt-out on all systems used.
Use of Google Adwords
This website uses Google AdWords conversion tracking, another Google analysis service. Google AdWords uses temporary cookies that are stored on your computer for a short time when you click on an Ableton ad. The information generated by the cookie about your use of this website after the advertisement has been clicked is usually transferred to a Google server in the USA and stored there. Google will use this information as a contractually designated processor pursuant to Art. 28 GDPR to evaluate your use of the website after the advertisement has been clicked and to compile reports on these website activities.
Use of Google Maps
Our dealer area uses Google Maps API from Google Inc. to show the location of dealers on an interactive map. When using Google Maps on our website, user information and a user's IP address will be transferred and stored on Google's servers in the USA.
Under its data protection policy, Google does not pass this information on to third parties, but does make exceptions to this rule. This means that data collected in this way may be provided to third party where such is required under USA legislation or where such data is processed by third parties on Google's behalf. More information on Google Inc.'s data protection policy:
http://www.google.com/policies/privacy/
You can also disable Google Maps to stop your personal data from being transmitted to Google. To do so, disable Java Script in your browser. Please note that doing so means that it will no longer be possible to use our dealer area.
Use of Google Remarketing
This website uses the Google remarketing service to advertise on third party websites (including Google) to previous visitors to our site. It could mean that we advertise to previous visitors who haven’t completed a task on our site, for example using the contact form to make an inquiry. This could be in the form of an advertisement on the Google search results page, or a site in the Google Display Network. Third-party vendors, including Google, use cookies to serve ads based on someone’s past visits to our website. Of course, any data collected will be used in accordance with our own privacy policy and Google’s privacy policy.
You can set preferences for how Google advertises to you using the Google Ad Preferences page, and if you want to you can opt out of interest-based advertising entirely by cookie settings or permanently using a browser plugin.
