5. Use of YouTube plug-ins

For the integration of videos we make use, among others, of the provider YouTube. YouTube is operated by YouTube LLC with headquarters at 901 Cherry Avenue, San Bruno, CA 94066, USA. YouTube is represented by Google Inc. with headquarters at 1600 Amphitheatre Parkway, Mountain View, CA 94043, USA.

If you browse the websites of our internet presence that feature such plug-in, a connection to the YouTube servers is established and the plug-in is displayed. This tells the YouTube server which website you have visited. If you are logged in as a member of YouTube, YouTube assigns this information to your personal user account. When using the plug-in, e.g. by clicking on the start button of a video, this information is also assigned to your user account. You can prevent this association by logging out of your YouTube account and other accounts of YouTube LLC and Google Inc. before using our website and deleting the corresponding cookies of these companies.
