Embedded YouTube videos
YouTube videos can be embedded on my website. The operator of the corresponding plugins is YouTube, LLC, 901 Cherry Ave, San Bruno, CA 94066, USA (hereinafter “YouTube”). When you visit a page with the YouTube plugin, a connection to YouTube servers is established. In the process, YouTube is informed which pages you are visiting.

If a YouTube video is started, the provider uses cookies that collect information about user behavior.

Social Plugins
Social media plugins are used on my website. Via these plugins, information, which may also include personal data, is sent to the service provider under certain circumstances and may be used by the service provider.
I have no influence on what data an activated plugin collects and how it is used by the provider. Currently, it must be assumed that a direct connection to the services of the provider is developed and at least the IP address and device-related information is collected and used. There is also the possibility that the service providers try to save cookies on the computer used. Please refer to the data protection information of the respective service provider to find out which specific data is collected and how it is used. If you are logged into Facebook at the same time, Facebook can identify you as a visitor to a particular page.
