§ 10 Social media
1. Use of social media plugins
(1) We may use social media plugins, which are only loaded if you have previously activated the function by giving your consent. Via the plugins, we offer you the opportunity to interact with the social networks and other users. The legal basis for the use of the plugins is Art. 6 para. 1 p. 1 lit. a GDPR, i.e. the integration only takes place after your consent.
(2) The plugin provider stores the data collected about you as usage profiles and/or uses these for the purposes of advertising, market research and/or demand-oriented design of its website. Such an evaluation is carried out in particular for the display of needs-based advertising and to inform other users of the social network about your activities on our website. If you are logged in to the plugin provider, your data collected from us will be directly assigned to your account with the plugin provider. We recommend that you log out regularly after using a social network, but especially before activating the button, as this will help you avoid being assigned to your profile with the plugin provider.
(3) You may revoke your consent at any time without affecting the permissibility of the processing until revocation. The easiest way to revoke your consent is via our Consent Manager or via the functions of the social media providers.
(4) Further information on the purpose and scope of the data collection and its processing by the plugin provider can be found in the data protection declarations of these providers. There you will also receive further information on your rights in this regard and setting options for protecting your privacy.

(2) By visiting the website, YouTube receives the information that you have accessed the corresponding sub-page of our website. In addition, basic data such as IP address and timestamp are transmitted. This takes place regardless of whether YouTube provides a user account via which you are logged in or whether no user account exists. If you are logged in to Google, your data will be directly assigned to your account. YouTube stores your data as usage profiles and/or uses them for the purposes of advertising, market research and/or designing its website in line with requirements. Such an evaluation is carried out in particular (even for users who are not logged in) to provide needs-based advertising and to inform other users of the social network about your activities on our website. You have the right to object to the creation of these user profiles, and you must contact YouTube to exercise this right.
(3) The information collected is stored on Google servers, including in the USA. We have agreed on a so-called standard contractual clause with Google, the purpose of which is to ensure compliance with an appropriate level of data protection in the third country.
