Use of YouTube components
This website embeds videos from the YouTube platform, which is operated by Google Ireland Limited, Gordon House, Barrow Street, Dublin 4, Ireland (“Google”).
If you have not opted in to the use of YouTube plugins via the cookie consent banner, YouTube videos will be disabled by default, which means that no data will initially be transmitted to Google when you visit our website. If you wish to view a YouTube video, you must click on the “Load now” button above the video in question. Clicking on this button will establish a connection to Google’s servers. Google’s server is then informed which of our webpages you have visited. Google may also store various cookies on your end device or use similar technologies to recognise you (e.g., device fingerprinting). This allows Google to obtain information about visitors to our website, which is used, among other things, to collect video statistics, improve user-friendliness and prevent attempted fraud. When you are logged in to your YouTube account and click on the plugin, you also enable Google to associate your surfing behaviour directly with your personal profile. You can prevent this by logging out of your YouTube account.
For further information on how Google handles user data, see Google’s Privacy policy.
Google may also transfer your data to Google LLC, 1600 Amphitheatre Parkway, Mountain View, CA 94043, USA. The transfer to Google LLC is based on an adequacy decision in accordance with Article 45 GDPR that currently applies to US companies which are certified under the EU-US Data Privacy Framework (DPF). The DPF is an agreement between the European Union and the USA designed to ensure that data processing operations in the USA meet European data protection standards. Every business certified under the DPF undertakes to comply with these data protection standards. You will find further information here if you type “Google LLC” in the search field.
The legal basis for the transfer of your data to Google is your consent within the meaning of Article 6(1)(a) GDPR and section 25 (1) of the German Telecommunications Digital Services Data Protection Act (Telekommunikation-Digitale-Dienste-Datenschutz-Gesetz, “TDDDG”), which you give by clicking on the “Agree” button. You may withdraw your consent at any time in the cookie settings on our website.
Use of web fonts (Google Fonts)
This website uses external fonts from Google Fonts, a service provided by Google Inc. (“Google”). These web fonts are embedded by means of a server request, generally made to a Google server in the USA. This transmits information to the server about which of our websites you have visited. Google also stores the IP address of the browser on the device you use to visit this website. Further information is available from Google’s privacy policy, which you can access here: www.google.com/fonts#AboutPlace:about
