The connection to Google established when you access our website enables Google to determine from which website your request has been sent and to which IP address the display of the font is to be transmitted.

further information, in particular on the options for preventing the use of data.

YouTube

We use YouTube on our website. This is a video portal of Google Ireland Limited, Gordon House, Barrow Street, Dublin 4, Ireland, hereinafter referred to as “YouTube”.

We use YouTube in connection with the “extended data protection mode” function in order to be able to show you videos. If you have given your consent for this processing, the legal basis is Art. 6 para. 1 lit. a GDPR. The legal basis may also be Art. 6 para. 1 lit. f GDPR be. Our legitimate interest lies in improving the quality of our website. According to YouTube, the “Enhanced Privacy Mode” function means that the data described in more detail below is only transmitted to the YouTube server when you actually start a video.

Without this “extended data protection”, a connection to the YouTube server in the USA is established as soon as you access one of our Internet pages on which a YouTube video is embedded.

This connection is necessary in order to be able to display the respective video on our website via your Internet browser. In the course of this, YouTube will at least record and process your IP address, the date and time and the website you visited. In addition, a connection to the “DoubleClick” advertising network from Google is established.

If you are logged in to YouTube at the same time, YouTube will assign the connection information to your YouTube account. If you wish to prevent this, you must either log out of YouTube before visiting our website or make the appropriate settings in your YouTube user account.

For the purpose of functionality and analysis of user behavior, YouTube permanently stores cookies on your end device via your Internet browser. If you do not agree to this processing, you have the option of preventing the storage of cookies by changing the settings in your Internet browser. You can find more information on this above under “Cookies”.

WhatsApp contact

Among other things, the provider enables the customer to contact them via the messenger service WhatsApp. WhatsApp is a service of WhatsApp Ireland Limited, 4 Grand Canal Square, Grand Canal Harbour, Dublin 2, Ireland, hereinafter referred to as WhatsApp, a subsidiary of Facebook.

When the user communicates with the provider via WhatsApp, both the provider and WhatsApp receive the user’s mobile phone number and the information that the user has contacted the provider.

The aforementioned data is also forwarded by WhatsApp to Facebook servers in the USA and processed by WhatsApp and Facebook in accordance with the WhatsApp Privacy Policy, which also includes processing for their own purposes, such as improving the WhatsApp service.

_____________________

However, in the opinion of the data protection supervisory authorities, the USA does not currently have an adequate level of data protection. However, there are so-called standard contractual clauses:

However, these are private law agreements and therefore have no direct impact on the access options of the authorities in the USA.

For more information on the purpose and scope of data collection and the further processing of this data by WhatsApp and Facebook, as well as related rights and privacy settings options, please refer to WhatsApp’s privacy policy:

If contact is not made for the aforementioned purposes, the legal basis is Art. 6 para. 1 lit. f GDPR. The provider has a legitimate interest in improving service quality.
