6) Use of Videos

Use of Youtube Videos

This website uses the YouTube embedding function for display and playback of videos
offered by the provider YouTube, which belongs to Google Ireland Limited, Gordon
House, 4 Barrow St, Dublin, D04 ESW5, Ireland ("Google").
To this end, the extended data protection mode is used to ensure, according to provider
information, that user information will only be stored once the playback function of the
video is started. When the playback of embedded YouTube videos is started, the
provider sets "YouTube" cookies in order to collect information about user behavior.
According to indications from YouTube, the use of those cookies is intended, among
other things, to record video statistics, to improve user-friendliness and to avoid
improper actions. If you are logged in to Google, your information will be directly
associated with your account when you click on a video. If you do not wish to be
associated with your profile on YouTube, you must log out before activating the button.
Google saves your data (even for users who are not logged in) as usage profiles and
evaluates them. Such an evaluation takes place in particular according to Art. 6 (1) point
f GDPR, on the basis of the legitimate interests of Google in the insertion of personalized
advertising, market research and/or demand-oriented design of its website. You have
the right to object to the creation of these user profiles, whereby you must contact
YouTube to exercise this right. When using YouTube, personal data may also be
transmitted to the servers of Google LLC. in the USA.

Regardless of whether the embedded video is played back, a connection to the Google
network "double click" is established when visiting this website. This may trigger further
data processing beyond our control.

Further information on YouTube data protection can be found in the provider's data
protection statement at: www.google.com/policies/privacy/

To the extent required by law, we have obtained your consent to the processing of your
data as described in accordance with Art. 6 (1) point a GDPR. You can withdraw your
consent at any time with effect for the future. In order to exercise your right of
withdrawal, please follow the procedure described above.

7) Tools and Miscellaneous

Google Maps

Our website uses Google Maps (AP’I) of Google Ireland Limited, Gordon House, 4 Barrow
St, Dublin, D04 E5W5, Ireland (“Google”). Google Maps is a web service for displaying
interactive (country) maps in order to display geographical information visually. Using
this service will show you our location and will make it easier for you to find us.

When you access the sub-pages that contain the Google Maps map, information about
your use of our website (such as your IP address) is transmitted to and stored by Google
on servers. When using Google Maps, personal data may also be transmitted to the
servers of Google LLC. in the USA. This is regardless of whether Google provides a user
account that you are logged in with or whether no user account exists. If you are logged
in to Google, your information will be directly associated with your account. If you do not
wish to be associated with your profile on Google, you must log out before activating the
button. Google saves your data (even for users who are not logged in) as usage profiles
and evaluates them. Such an evaluation takes place according to Art. 6 (1) point f GDPR,
on the basis of the legitimate interests of Google in the insertion of personalized
advertising, market research and/or demand-oriented design of its website. You have
the right to object to the creation of these user profiles. If you want to do so, you must
contact Google to exercise this right.

If you do not agree to the future transmission of your data to Google in the context of
using Google Maps, you may completely deactivate the Google Maps web service by
switching off the JavaScript application in your browser. In this case, Google Maps as
well as the map display on this website cannot be used.

The Google terms of use can be found at: https://policies.google.com/terms?hl=en. The
additional terms of use can be found at:
https://www.google.com/intl/en-US_US/help/terms_maps.html.

Google Maps on Google's website ("Google Privacy Policy") at:

the corresponding data will be routinely deleted, provided they are no longer necessary
for the performance or initiation of the contract and/or there is no longer any legitimate
