Use of the AI-Supported Chat System “ChatGPT”

We use the chat system “ChatGPT” of OpenAI Ireland Limited, with registered office at 1st Floor, The Liffey Trust Centre, 117-126 Sheriff Street Upper, Dublin 1, D01 YC43, Ireland, "OpenAI", on our website. ChatGPT is an automated system based on artificial intelligence. The systems used are based on large language models, LLMs, which have been trained using machine learning methods. The functioning in overview:

Text inputs are converted into numerical representations, “token vectors”,
the model calculates the most probable next tokens on the basis of probabilistic methods, transformer architecture, deep learning,
the answer is generated step by step from these probabilities.

It is therefore stochastic text generation, not “human thinking”. Content may be incorrect or incomplete. We do not carry out human control in real time.

Pursuant to Art. 52 AI Act, we point out that you are interacting with an AI system. The answers generated by ChatGPT may contain errors or be incomplete. Please review the content critically and do not rely exclusively on chatbot outputs for legally binding matters.

The system serves the purpose of automated communication and of simplifying and accelerating responses to customer enquiries, in particular regarding order status, product characteristics and shipment tracking. We ask you not to enter any personal, business or confidential data into the chatbot. However, your inputs into OpenAI are not used to train OpenAI models.

In this context, your IP address, date and time of page access, click path, information about the browser you use and the device you use, pages visited, referrer URL, website through which you accessed our website, location data as well as your chat input and the answers generated by the chatbot are collected and processed. These are stored in order to be able to provide relevant information subsequently in the event of concerns or information requested by you. Your authentication takes place explicitly only with an existing order number and matching postal code.

Cookies are used for this purpose. The cookies enable the internet browser to be recognized. Your data may be transmitted to the USA.
