8. YouTube Videos

Our website embeds videos from the YouTube platform. The provider is Google Ireland Limited (Gordon House, Barrow Street, Dublin 4, Ireland).

We use YouTube in enhanced privacy mode (youtube-nocookie.com). Videos are not embedded directly when the page loads, but only after your explicit consent (so-called two-click solution). When the page loads, only preview images are provided via our own server, so no connection to Google servers is established.

Only when you click on "Accept external media & play" will a connection to YouTube servers be established. In this process, YouTube is informed which page you have visited. If you are logged into your YouTube account, YouTube may associate your browsing behavior with your personal profile.

Your consent is stored in a cookie (cfai_consent) and is valid for 365 days. You can revoke your consent at any time by deleting the cookie.

Legal basis: Art. 6 para. 1 lit. a GDPR (consent)
