YouTube

Our site uses the provider YouTube LLC, 901 Cherry Avenue, San Bruno, CA 94066, USA, represented by Google Inc., 1600 Amphitheater Parkway, Mountain View, CA 94043, USA, for the purpose of integrating videos. Usually, when you visit an embedded video page, your IP address will be sent to YouTube and cookies will be installed on your machine. However, we have incorporated our YouTube videos in enhanced privacy mode (in which case, YouTube still contacts the Google DoubleClick service, but Google's privacy policy does not evaluate personal information). As a result, YouTube does not store any information about visitors unless they watch the video. If you click on the video, your IP address will be sent to YouTube and YouTube will know that you have watched the video. If you are logged in to YouTube, this information will also be associated with your user account (you can prevent this by logging out of YouTube before calling up the video).

We have no knowledge of or influence on any collection and use of your data by YouTube. For more information, see the YouTube privacy policy at www.google.com/intl/en/policies/privacy/ . In addition, we refer you to information on the general handling and deactivation of cookies in this privacy policy.

As a service provider, we are responsible for our own content on these pages under general legislation. However, as a service provider, we are under no obligation to monitor any third-party information transmitted or stored or to investigate circumstances that indicate unlawful activity. Obligations to remove or block the use of information under general legislation remain unaffected. However, we are only able to accept liability in this regard from the moment we become aware of a specific infringement. When we are notified of violations, we will immediately remove the content concerned.
