Our website uses plugins from YouTube, which Google operates. The pages’ operator is YouTube LLC, 901 Cherry Ave., San Bruno, CA 94066, USA.
If you visit one of our pages featuring a YouTube plugin, a connection to the YouTube servers is established. Here the YouTube server is informed about the pages you have visited.
If you are logged in to your YouTube account, YouTube allows you to associate your browsing behaviour directly with your personal profile. You can prevent this by logging out of your YouTube account.
YouTube is used to help make our website appealing. Accordingly, this constitutes a justified interest according to Art. 6 (1) (f) DSGVO.

For uniform representation of fonts, this page uses web fonts provided by Google. Your browser loads the required web fonts into your browser cache to display texts and fonts correctly when you open a page.
For this purpose, your browser has to establish a direct connection to Google servers. Google thus becomes aware that you accessed our web page via your IP address. In addition, the use of Google Web fonts is done in the interest of a uniform and attractive presentation of our plugin. This constitutes a justified interest according to Art. 6 (1) (f) DSGVO.
If your browser does not support web fonts, a standard font is used by your computer.
