On this website, under ‘Products’, we have integrated YouTube videos of various of our production facilities. You can also choose to watch these videos directly on YouTube.

YouTube is an Internet video portal that allows you to post video clips free of charge and to view, rate and comment on them free of charge.

YouTube always receives information via the YouTube link that you have visited our website if you are logged in to YouTube at the same time as accessing our website.

If you do not want this information to be transmitted to YouTube and Google, you can prevent this transmission by logging out of your YouTube account before accessing our website.

The privacy policy published by YouTube, which is available at https://policies.google.com/privacy?hl=de provide information about the collection, processing and use of personal data by YouTube

6.2 Legal basis and purpose of data processing

The connection to YouTube or the redirection to the linked platform is based on your voluntary click on the button ‘Unblock content’ or ‘Accept required service and unblock content’ or ‘View on YouTube’ or if you give your consent via the cookie banner (Art. 7 para. 1 lit. a DSGVO).

6.3 Objection and removal options

You have the right to object to the creation of user profiles, whereby you must contact YouTube (Google) to exercise this right. It is also possible to block social media providers with add-ons for your browser. We would like to point out that you can prevent the assignment described above by logging out of your YouTube profile before visiting the website and deleting the cookies used by YouTube.

You can deactivate or restrict the transmission of cookies by changing the settings in your internet browser. Cookies that have already been saved can be deleted at any time. This can also be done automatically.

8. Rights of the data subject

If a user’s personal data is processed, the user is a ‘data subject’ within the meaning of the DSGVO. The data sub-ject has the following rights towards us as the responsible party:

  • Right to information
  • Right to rectification
  • Right to restriction of processing
  • Right to erasure
  • Right to information
  • Right to data portability
  • Right to object
  • Right to revoke the declaration of consent under data protection law
  • Right to lodge a complaint with a data protection supervisory authority

Note on the revocation of consent:
A data subject has the right to withdraw their declaration of consent under data protection law at any time. However, this does not affect the lawfulness of the processing carried out on the basis of the consent until revocation.

Note on complaints to a supervisory authority:
Without prejudice to any other administrative or judicial remedy, a data subject has the right to lodge a complaint with a supervisory authority – in particular in the Member State of the user’s habitual residence, place of work or place of the alleged infringement – if the user considers that the processing of their personal data by us infringes the DSGVO.

Note on the transfer of data to third countries:
For the transfer of personal data to third countries (outside the European Economic Area), the DSGVO requires guarantees for the adequacy of the level of data protection in these countries.
For data transfers to the USA, this is the EU-U.S. Data Privacy Framework. The prerequisite is that the organisations concerned are certified under the EU-U.S. Data Privacy Framework (e.g. Google – YouTube).
