How do you protect my data?
FAQ-Beitrag
Your data should remain your data! We take the protection of your data very seriously. Therefore, we have taken a variety of measures, including:
- We collect as little data as possible to fulfill your order.
- Our external service providers for order processing, payment processing, accounting and hosting as well as our marketing platform are based within the EU and are subject to the strict data protection laws of the European Union.
- All connections between you and us are secured with SSL encryption.
- We do not use Google Analytics, as your personal data would be sent to the USA without your consent. Instead, we use our own analytics tool to protect your privacy. The data collected from the analysis is stored in Germany and helps us to make True Tea better for you.
- Your payment data is not stored on our server, but at Mollie. Mollie is a European company that specializes in payment processing.
- We make it necessary to choose a strong password when creating an account.
If you have any questions or concerns, feel free to contact us.
For more information about privacy, please see our Privacy Policy.
We usually ship your goods within 48 hours, provided that all items are available.
If this is not the case, we will contact you to clarify the further procedure.
Our refill bags always hold at least twice the filling quantity of a Tin. So you can conveniently refill them. The bags are garden compostable and plastic-free. On the compost they become food for microorganisms. A clean sweep, from start to finish, that is.
Yes! This has even been confirmed by the TÜV. The bags decompose in a natural environment within 180 days. And completely without pollutants. Super, isn’t it?
You can find more details here.
And how! Compared to normal paper made from virgin fibers, grass paper saves 99% water and 95% CO₂ in production. Grass paper is grown relatively regionally (compared to wood). This saves transport distances.
Please dispose of the cans in the paper trash. There, the paper fibers can be recycled and you give new life to the raw material.
From 29,90€ we take over the shipping costs for you. For a purchase value below 29,90€ we charge a shipping fee of 4,99€.
The flat shipping rate helps cover costs for transportation and packaging. Our sustainable packaging is unfortunately relatively expensive, yet we also want to offer you the flexibility of low order quantities. We think we have found a good compromise here.
The bags are made of kraft paper, cellulose film, starch film and starch zipper. 100% Plastic Free & 100% Pollutant Free.
Tea should be stored airtight in a cool, dry place protected from the sun. Tea quickly takes on foreign odors – so always remember to seal your bag or Tin properly. Of course, this also applies to matcha.
Very important: Do not store flavored teas next to non-flavored ones. If your precious green tea Gyokuru is next to our Ibiza, it may taste like mango.
Good question! We firmly believe in the credo: Reduce, Reuse and Recycle.
Therefore, we currently offer two packages:
Cardboard cans
The chic tins are handmade and are made of cardboard. The core of the sleeve is made of recycled paper. After use, you can refill them or simply dispose of them in the paper trash. The cans are of course food safe and plastic free.
The cans are made of only one material (paper). Thus, recycling is particularly easy. The use of already recycled paper in the cans also reduces the environmental footprint. A round thing, we think.
Reclosable bags
We rely on garden compostable and 100% plastic-free bags. And they are honestly good! These high quality bags are made in the EU and become compost after 180 days. This has also been confirmed by the TÜV. And the bags are also practical to reseal. The bags are made of cellulose, paper and starch.
We fill our shipping boxes only with paper material or floppies made of corn starch. Both can be recycled and are 100% plastic free.
And what about our tea accessories? Well, here, unfortunately, possibly (recyclable) plastic is used in the packaging, so that these arrive safely at your home. Unfortunately, this cannot be done any other way at present. As part of our transparency, we show you exactly how each item is packaged on the product pages.
We pay attention to sustainability in all steps and especially the elimination of plastic wherever possible. Not everywhere we have reached where we would like to go. But be sure: we will continue to do our best to further improve the packaging materials.
The name should be program. Because we want to provide you with truly good and honest sustainable products – without compromise.
We are so serious about this promise that we have given ourselves the appropriate name. We are True Tea!
