3a. Use of YouTube videos
Privacy policy due to the use of a YouTube plugin
This website contains at least one plugin from YouTube, belonging to Google Inc. based in San Bruno/California, USA.
We use the YouTube function No-Cookies, i.e. we have activated Enhanced Privacy, videos are not accessed via youtube.com, but via youtube-nocookie.com.
YouTube itself provides this and thus ensures that YouTube does not initially store any cookies on your device. However, when the relevant pages are called up, the IP address and the other data mentioned in section 4 are transmitted and thus, in particular, information is provided as to which of our Internet pages you have visited. However, this information cannot be assigned to you if you are permanently logged in to YouTube or another Google service when you call up the page.
As soon as you start the playback of an embedded video by clicking on it, YouTube only saves cookies on your device through the extended data protection mode, which do not contain any personally identifiable data, unless you are currently logged in to a Google service. These cookies can be prevented by appropriate browser settings and extensions.

3b. Cookies Youtube
This website uses the Youtube embedding feature to display and play videos from Youtube. We use the extended data protection mode, which, according to the provider, only initiates the storage of user information when the video is played. At the moment when the playback of the embedded video is started, the Youtube sets cookies to collect information about user behavior.
According to information from Youtube, these are used, among other things, to collect video statistics, improve the user experience and prevent abusive behavior.
Independently of a playback of the embedded videos, a connection to the Google network “DoubleClick” is established each time this website is called up, which may trigger further data processing operations without our influence.
Further information on data protection at YouTube can be found in the provider’s privacy policy at: https://www.google.de/intl/de/policies/privacy/
