Privacy Policy

1. An overview of data protection

General information

The fol­lowing inform­a­tion will provide you with an easy to nav­igate over­view of what will happen with your per­sonal data when you visit this web­site. The term “per­sonal data” com­prises all data that can be used to per­son­ally identify you. For detailed inform­a­tion about the sub­ject matter of data pro­tec­tion, please con­sult our Data Pro­tec­tion Declar­a­tion, which we have included beneath this copy.

Data recording on this website

Who is the responsible party for the recording of data on this website (i.e., the “controller”)?

The data on this web­site is pro­cessed by the oper­ator of the web­site, whose con­tact inform­a­tion is avail­able under sec­tion “Inform­a­tion about the respons­ible party (referred to as the “con­troller” in the GDPR)” in this Pri­vacy Policy.

How do we record your data?

We col­lect your data as a result of your sharing of your data with us. This may, for instance be inform­a­tion you enter into our con­tact form.

Other data shall be recorded by our IT sys­tems auto­mat­ic­ally or after you con­sent to its recording during your web­site visit. This data com­prises primarily tech­nical inform­a­tion (e.g., web browser, oper­ating system, or time the site was accessed). This inform­a­tion is recorded auto­mat­ic­ally when you access this web­site.

What are the purposes we use your data for?

A por­tion of the inform­a­tion is gen­er­ated to guar­antee the error free pro­vi­sion of the web­site. Other data may be used to ana­lyze your user pat­terns.

What rights do you have as far as your information is concerned?

You have the right to receive inform­a­tion about the source, recip­i­ents, and pur­poses of your archived per­sonal data at any time without having to pay a fee for such dis­clos­ures. You also have the right to demand that your data are rec­ti­fied or erad­ic­ated. If you have con­sented to data pro­cessing, you have the option to revoke this con­sent at any time, which shall affect all future data pro­cessing. Moreover, you have the right to demand that the pro­cessing of your data be restricted under cer­tain cir­cum­stances. Fur­ther­more, you have the right to log a com­plaint with the com­petent super­vising agency.

Please do not hes­itate to con­tact us at any time if you have ques­tions about this or any other data pro­tec­tion related issues.

Analysis tools and tools provided by third parties

There is a pos­sib­ility that your browsing pat­terns will be stat­ist­ic­ally ana­lyzed when your visit this web­site. Such ana­lyses are per­formed primarily with what we refer to as ana­lysis pro­grams.

For detailed inform­a­tion about these ana­lysis pro­grams please con­sult our Data Pro­tec­tion Declar­a­tion below.

2. Hosting

We are hosting the con­tent of our web­site at the fol­lowing pro­vider:

External Hosting

This web­site is hosted extern­ally. Per­sonal data col­lected on this web­site are stored on the servers of the host. These may include, but are not lim­ited to, IP addresses, con­tact requests, metadata and com­mu­nic­a­tions, con­tract inform­a­tion, con­tact inform­a­tion, names, web page access, and other data gen­er­ated through a web site.

The external hosting serves the pur­pose of ful­filling the con­tract with our poten­tial and existing cus­tomers (Art. 6(1)(b) GDPR) and in the interest of secure, fast, and effi­cient pro­vi­sion of our online ser­vices by a pro­fes­sional pro­vider (Art. 6(1)(f) GDPR). If appro­priate con­sent has been obtained, the pro­cessing is car­ried out exclus­ively on the basis of Art. 6 (1)(a) GDPR and § 25 (1) TTDSG, insofar the con­sent includes the storage of cookies or the access to inform­a­tion in the user’s end device (e.g., device fin­ger­printing) within the meaning of the TTDSG. This con­sent can be revoked at any time.

Our host(s) will only pro­cess your data to the extent neces­sary to fulfil its per­form­ance oblig­a­tions and to follow our instruc­tions with respect to such data.

We are using the fol­lowing host(s):

Inhaber: René Mün­nich
Hauptstraße 68
D‑02742 Frieder­sdorf

Data processing

We have con­cluded a data pro­cessing agree­ment (DPA) for the use of the above-men­tioned ser­vice. This is a con­tract man­dated by data pri­vacy laws that guar­an­tees that they pro­cess per­sonal data of our web­site vis­itors only based on our instruc­tions and in com­pli­ance with the GDPR.

3. General information and mandatory information

Data protection

The oper­ators of this web­site and its pages take the pro­tec­tion of your per­sonal data very ser­i­ously. Hence, we handle your per­sonal data as con­fid­en­tial inform­a­tion and in com­pli­ance with the stat­utory data pro­tec­tion reg­u­la­tions and this Data Pro­tec­tion Declar­a­tion.

Whenever you use this web­site, a variety of per­sonal inform­a­tion will be col­lected. Per­sonal data com­prises data that can be used to per­son­ally identify you. This Data Pro­tec­tion Declar­a­tion explains which data we col­lect as well as the pur­poses we use this data for. It also explains how, and for which pur­pose the inform­a­tion is col­lected.

We here­with advise you that the trans­mis­sion of data via the Internet (i.e., through e‑mail com­mu­nic­a­tions) may be prone to security gaps. It is not pos­sible to com­pletely pro­tect data against third-party access.

Information about the responsible party (referred to as the “controller” in the GDPR)

The data pro­cessing con­troller on this web­site is:

Thomas Frenken
Türkisweg 16
41564 Kaarst

Phone: +49 (0) 172 1602220
E‑mail: contact@​madcapmovies.​com

The con­troller is the nat­ural person or legal entity that single-handedly or jointly with others makes decisions as to the pur­poses of and resources for the pro­cessing of per­sonal data (e.g., names, e‑mail addresses, etc.).

Storage duration

Unless a more spe­cific storage period has been spe­cified in this pri­vacy policy, your per­sonal data will remain with us until the pur­pose for which it was col­lected no longer applies. If you assert a jus­ti­fied request for dele­tion or revoke your con­sent to data pro­cessing, your data will be deleted, unless we have other leg­ally per­miss­ible reasons for storing your per­sonal data (e.g., tax or com­mer­cial law reten­tion periods); in the latter case, the dele­tion will take place after these reasons cease to apply.

General information on the legal basis for the data processing on this website

If you have con­sented to data pro­cessing, we pro­cess your per­sonal data on the basis of Art. 6(1)(a) GDPR or Art. 9 (2)(a) GDPR, if spe­cial cat­egories of data are pro­cessed according to Art. 9 (1) DSGVO. In the case of explicit con­sent to the transfer of per­sonal data to third coun­tries, the data pro­cessing is also based on Art. 49 (1)(a) GDPR. If you have con­sented to the storage of cookies or to the access to inform­a­tion in your end device (e.g., via device fin­ger­printing), the data pro­cessing is addi­tion­ally based on § 25 (1) TTDSG. The con­sent can be revoked at any time. If your data is required for the ful­fill­ment of a con­tract or for the imple­ment­a­tion of pre-con­trac­tual meas­ures, we pro­cess your data on the basis of Art. 6(1)(b) GDPR. Fur­ther­more, if your data is required for the ful­fill­ment of a legal oblig­a­tion, we pro­cess it on the basis of Art. 6(1)© GDPR. Fur­ther­more, the data pro­cessing may be car­ried out on the basis of our legit­imate interest according to Art. 6(1)(f) GDPR. Inform­a­tion on the rel­evant legal basis in each indi­vidual case is provided in the fol­lowing para­graphs of this pri­vacy policy.

Information on data transfer to the USA and other non-EU countries

Among other things, we use tools of com­panies dom­i­ciled in the United States or other from a data pro­tec­tion per­spective non-secure non-EU coun­tries. If these tools are active, your per­sonal data may poten­tially be trans­ferred to these non-EU coun­tries and may be pro­cessed there. We must point out that in these coun­tries, a data pro­tec­tion level that is com­par­able to that in the EU cannot be guar­an­teed. For instance, U.S. enter­prises are under a man­date to release per­sonal data to the security agen­cies and you as the data sub­ject do not have any lit­ig­a­tion options to defend your­self in court. Hence, it cannot be ruled out that U.S. agen­cies (e.g., the Secret Ser­vice) may pro­cess, ana­lyze, and per­man­ently archive your per­sonal data for sur­veil­lance pur­poses. We have no con­trol over these pro­cessing activ­ities.

Revocation of your consent to the processing of data

A wide range of data pro­cessing trans­ac­tions are pos­sible only sub­ject to your express con­sent. You can also revoke at any time any con­sent you have already given us. This shall be without pre­ju­dice to the law­ful­ness of any data col­lec­tion that occurred prior to your revoc­a­tion.

Right to object to the collection of data in special cases; right to object to direct advertising (Art. 21 GDPR)

IN THE EVENT THAT DATA ARE PROCESSED ON THE BASIS OF ART. 6(1)(E) OR (F) GDPR, YOU HAVE THE RIGHT TO AT ANY TIME OBJECT TO THE PROCESSING OF YOUR PERSONAL DATA BASED ON GROUNDS ARISING FROM YOUR UNIQUE SITUATION. THIS ALSO APPLIES TO ANY PROFILING BASED ON THESE PROVISIONS. TO DETERMINE THE LEGAL BASIS, ON WHICH ANY PROCESSING OF DATA IS BASED, PLEASE CONSULT THIS DATA PROTECTION DECLARATION. IF YOU LOG AN OBJECTION, WE WILL NO LONGER PROCESS YOUR AFFECTED PERSONAL DATA, UNLESS WE ARE IN A POSITION TO PRESENT COMPELLING PROTECTION WORTHY GROUNDS FOR THE PROCESSING OF YOUR DATA, THAT OUTWEIGH YOUR INTERESTS, RIGHTS AND FREEDOMS OR IF THE PURPOSE OF THE PROCESSING IS THE CLAIMING, EXERCISING OR DEFENCE OF LEGAL ENTITLEMENTS (OBJECTION PURSUANT TO ART. 21(1) GDPR).

IF YOUR PERSONAL DATA IS BEING PROCESSED IN ORDER TO ENGAGE IN DIRECT ADVERTISING, YOU HAVE THE RIGHT TO OBJECT TO THE PROCESSING OF YOUR AFFECTED PERSONAL DATA FOR THE PURPOSES OF SUCH ADVERTISING AT ANY TIME. THIS ALSO APPLIES TO PROFILING TO THE EXTENT THAT IT IS AFFILIATED WITH SUCH DIRECT ADVERTISING. IF YOU OBJECT, YOUR PERSONAL DATA WILL SUBSEQUENTLY NO LONGER BE USED FOR DIRECT ADVERTISING PURPOSES (OBJECTION PURSUANT TO ART. 21(2) GDPR).

Right to log a complaint with the competent supervisory agency

In the event of viol­a­tions of the GDPR, data sub­jects are entitled to log a com­plaint with a super­visory agency, in par­tic­ular in the member state where they usu­ally main­tain their dom­i­cile, place of work or at the place where the alleged viol­a­tion occurred. The right to log a com­plaint is in effect regard­less of any other admin­is­trative or court pro­ceed­ings avail­able as legal recourses.

Right to data portability

You have the right to have data that we pro­cess auto­mat­ic­ally on the basis of your con­sent or in ful­fill­ment of a con­tract handed over to you or to a third party in a common, machine-read­able format. If you should demand the direct transfer of the data to another con­troller, this will be done only if it is tech­nic­ally feas­ible.

Information about, rectification and eradication of data

Within the scope of the applic­able stat­utory pro­vi­sions, you have the right to demand inform­a­tion about your archived per­sonal data, their source and recip­i­ents as well as the pur­pose of the pro­cessing of your data at any time. You may also have a right to have your data rec­ti­fied or erad­ic­ated. If you have ques­tions about this sub­ject matter or any other ques­tions about per­sonal data, please do not hes­itate to con­tact us at any time.

Right to demand processing restrictions

You have the right to demand the impos­i­tion of restric­tions as far as the pro­cessing of your per­sonal data is con­cerned. To do so, you may con­tact us at any time. The right to demand restric­tion of pro­cessing applies in the fol­lowing cases:

• In the event that you should dis­pute the cor­rect­ness of your data archived by us, we will usu­ally need some time to verify this claim. During the time that this invest­ig­a­tion is ongoing, you have the right to demand that we restrict the pro­cessing of your per­sonal data.
• If the pro­cessing of your per­sonal data was/is con­ducted in an unlawful manner, you have the option to demand the restric­tion of the pro­cessing of your data instead of demanding the erad­ic­a­tion of this data.
• If we do not need your per­sonal data any longer and you need it to exer­cise, defend or claim legal enti­tle­ments, you have the right to demand the restric­tion of the pro­cessing of your per­sonal data instead of its erad­ic­a­tion.
• If you have raised an objec­tion pur­suant to Art. 21(1) GDPR, your rights and our rights will have to be weighed against each other. As long as it has not been determ­ined whose interests pre­vail, you have the right to demand a restric­tion of the pro­cessing of your per­sonal data.

If you have restricted the pro­cessing of your per­sonal data, these data – with the excep­tion of their archiving – may be pro­cessed only sub­ject to your con­sent or to claim, exer­cise or defend legal enti­tle­ments or to pro­tect the rights of other nat­ural per­sons or legal entities or for important public interest reasons cited by the European Union or a member state of the EU.

SSL and/or TLS encryption

For security reasons and to pro­tect the trans­mis­sion of con­fid­en­tial con­tent, such as pur­chase orders or inquiries you submit to us as the web­site oper­ator, this web­site uses either an SSL or a TLS encryp­tion pro­gram. You can recog­nize an encrypted con­nec­tion by checking whether the address line of the browser switches from “http://” to “https://” and also by the appear­ance of the lock icon in the browser line.

If the SSL or TLS encryp­tion is activ­ated, data you transmit to us cannot be read by third parties.

4. Recording of data on this website

Cookies

Our web­sites and pages use what the industry refers to as “cookies.” Cookies are small data pack­ages that do not cause any damage to your device. They are either stored tem­por­arily for the dur­a­tion of a ses­sion (ses­sion cookies) or they are per­man­ently archived on your device (per­manent cookies). Ses­sion cookies are auto­mat­ic­ally deleted once you ter­minate your visit. Per­manent cookies remain archived on your device until you act­ively delete them, or they are auto­mat­ic­ally erad­ic­ated by your web browser.

Cookies can be issued by us (first-party cookies) or by third-party com­panies (so-called third-party cookies). Third-party cookies enable the integ­ra­tion of cer­tain ser­vices of third-party com­panies into web­sites (e.g., cookies for hand­ling pay­ment ser­vices).

Cookies have a variety of func­tions. Many cookies are tech­nic­ally essen­tial since cer­tain web­site func­tions would not work in the absence of these cookies (e.g., the shop­ping cart func­tion or the dis­play of videos). Other cookies may be used to ana­lyze user beha­vior or for pro­mo­tional pur­poses.

Cookies, which are required for the per­form­ance of elec­tronic com­mu­nic­a­tion trans­ac­tions, for the pro­vi­sion of cer­tain func­tions you want to use (e.g., for the shop­ping cart func­tion) or those that are neces­sary for the optim­iz­a­tion (required cookies) of the web­site (e.g., cookies that provide meas­ur­able insights into the web audi­ence), shall be stored on the basis of Art. 6(1)(f) GDPR, unless a dif­ferent legal basis is cited. The oper­ator of the web­site has a legit­imate interest in the storage of required cookies to ensure the tech­nic­ally error-free and optim­ized pro­vi­sion of the operator’s ser­vices. If your con­sent to the storage of the cookies and sim­ilar recog­ni­tion tech­no­lo­gies has been requested, the pro­cessing occurs exclus­ively on the basis of the con­sent obtained (Art. 6(1)(a) GDPR and § 25 (1) TTDSG); this con­sent may be revoked at any time.

You have the option to set up your browser in such a manner that you will be noti­fied any time cookies are placed and to permit the accept­ance of cookies only in spe­cific cases. You may also exclude the accept­ance of cookies in cer­tain cases or in gen­eral or activate the delete-func­tion for the auto­matic erad­ic­a­tion of cookies when the browser closes. If cookies are deac­tiv­ated, the func­tions of this web­site may be lim­ited.

Which cookies and ser­vices are used on this web­site can be found in this pri­vacy policy.

Consent with Complianz

Our web­site uses Complianz’s con­sent tech­no­logy to obtain your con­sent to store cer­tain cookies on your device or for the use of cer­tain tech­no­lo­gies and to doc­u­ment this con­sent in a manner com­pliant with data pro­tec­tion reg­u­la­tions. The pro­vider of this tech­no­logy is Com­plianz B.V., Kal­marweg 14–5, 9723 JG Groningen, the Neth­er­lands (here­in­after “Com­plianz”).

Com­plianz is hosted on our servers, so no con­nec­tion to the servers of the pro­vider of Com­plianz is estab­lished. Com­plianz stores a cookie in your browser in order to be able to allocate the con­sents granted to you or their revoc­a­tion. The data col­lected in this way is stored until you request us to delete it, delete the Com­plianz cookie your­self or until the pur­pose for storing the data no longer applies. Man­datory legal storage oblig­a­tions remain unaf­fected.

Com­plianz serves to obtain the leg­ally required con­sent for the use of cookies. The legal basis for this is Art. 6(1)© GDPR.

Server log files

The pro­vider of this web­site and its pages auto­mat­ic­ally col­lects and stores inform­a­tion in so-called server log files, which your browser com­mu­nic­ates to us auto­mat­ic­ally. The inform­a­tion com­prises:

• The type and ver­sion of browser used
• The used oper­ating system
• Referrer URL
• The host­name of the accessing com­puter
• The time of the server inquiry
• The IP address

This data is not merged with other data sources.

This data is recorded on the basis of Art. 6(1)(f) GDPR. The oper­ator of the web­site has a legit­imate interest in the tech­nic­ally error free depic­tion and the optim­iz­a­tion of the operator’s web­site. In order to achieve this, server log files must be recorded.

Contact form

If you submit inquiries to us via our con­tact form, the inform­a­tion provided in the con­tact form as well as any con­tact inform­a­tion provided therein will be stored by us in order to handle your inquiry and in the event that we have fur­ther ques­tions. We will not share this inform­a­tion without your con­sent.

The pro­cessing of these data is based on Art. 6(1)(b) GDPR, if your request is related to the exe­cu­tion of a con­tract or if it is neces­sary to carry out pre-con­trac­tual meas­ures. In all other cases the pro­cessing is based on our legit­imate interest in the effective pro­cessing of the requests addressed to us (Art. 6(1)(f) GDPR) or on your agree­ment (Art. 6(1)(a) GDPR) if this has been requested; the con­sent can be revoked at any time.

The inform­a­tion you have entered into the con­tact form shall remain with us until you ask us to erad­icate the data, revoke your con­sent to the archiving of data or if the pur­pose for which the inform­a­tion is being archived no longer exists (e.g., after we have con­cluded our response to your inquiry). This shall be without pre­ju­dice to any man­datory legal pro­vi­sions, in par­tic­ular reten­tion periods.

Registration on this website

You have the option to register on this web­site to be able to use addi­tional web­site func­tions. We shall use the data you enter only for the pur­pose of using the respective offer or ser­vice you have registered for. The required inform­a­tion we request at the time of regis­tra­tion must be entered in full. Oth­er­wise, we shall reject the regis­tra­tion.

To notify you of any important changes to the scope of our port­folio or in the event of tech­nical modi­fic­a­tions, we shall use the e‑mail address provided during the regis­tra­tion pro­cess.

We shall pro­cess the data entered during the regis­tra­tion pro­cess on the basis of your con­sent (Art. 6(1)(a) GDPR).

The data recorded during the regis­tra­tion pro­cess shall be stored by us as long as you are registered on this web­site. Sub­sequently, such data shall be deleted. This shall be without pre­ju­dice to man­datory stat­utory reten­tion oblig­a­tions.

Registration with Google

Instead of regis­tering dir­ectly on this web­site, you can register with Google. The pro­vider of this ser­vice is Google Ire­land Lim­ited (“Google”), Gordon House, Barrow Street, Dublin 4, Ire­land.

To register with Google, you must only enter your Google name and pass­word. Google will identify you and con­firm your iden­tity to our web­site.

When you sign in with Google, we may be able to use cer­tain inform­a­tion in your account to com­plete your pro­file with us. You decide whether you want this inform­a­tion to be used and if so, which inform­a­tion it is, within the frame­work of your Google security set­tings, which you can find here: https://​myac​count​.google​.com/​s​e​c​u​r​ity and https://​myac​count​.google​.com/​p​e​r​m​i​s​s​i​ons.

The data pro­cessing asso­ci­ated with Google’s regis­tra­tion is based on our legit­imate interest in making the regis­tra­tion pro­cess as simple as pos­sible for our users (Art. 6(1)(f) GDPR). Since the use of the regis­tra­tion func­tion is vol­un­tary and the users them­selves can decide on the respective access options, no con­flicting pre­dom­inant rights of the data sub­jects are apparent.

The comment function on this website

When you use the com­ment func­tion on this web­site, inform­a­tion on the time the com­ment was gen­er­ated and your e‑mail-address and, if you are not posting anonym­ously, the user­name you have selected will be archived in addi­tion to your com­ments.

Storage of the IP address

Our com­ment func­tion stores the IP addresses of all users who enter com­ments. Given that we do not review the com­ments prior to pub­lishing them, we need this inform­a­tion in order to take action against the author in the event of rights viol­a­tions, such as defam­a­tion or pro­pa­ganda.

Storage period for comments

Com­ments and any affil­i­ated inform­a­tion shall be stored by us and remain on this web­site until the con­tent the com­ment per­tained to has been deleted in its entirety or if the com­ments had to be deleted for legal reasons (e.g., insulting com­ments).

Legal basis

Com­ments are stored on the basis of your con­sent (Art. 6(1)(a) GDPR). You have the right to revoke at any time any con­sent you have already given us. To do so, all you are required to do is sent us an informal noti­fic­a­tion via e‑mail. This shall be without pre­ju­dice to the law­ful­ness of any data col­lec­tion that occurred prior to your revoc­a­tion.

5. Analysis tools and advertising

WP Statistics

This web­site uses the WP Stat­istics ana­lysis tool to eval­uate vis­itor accesses stat­ist­ic­ally. The pro­vider is Ver­on­alabs, Tatari 64, 10134, Tallinn, Estonia (https://​ver​on​alabs​.com).

WP Stat­istics can be used to ana­lyze the use of our web­site. In doing so, WP Stat­istics records, among other things, log files (IP address, referrer, browser used, origin of the user, search engine used) and actions that the web­site vis­itors have taken on the site (e.g. clicks and views).

The data col­lected with WP Stat­istics is stored exclus­ively on our own server.

The use of this ana­lysis tool is based on Art. 6(1)(f) GDPR. We have a legit­imate interest in the anonym­ized ana­lysis of user beha­vior in order to optimize both our web­sites and our advert­ising. If appro­priate con­sent has been obtained, the pro­cessing is car­ried out exclus­ively on the basis of Art. 6(1)(a) GDPR and § 25 (1) TTDSG, insofar the con­sent includes the storage of cookies or the access to inform­a­tion in the user’s end device (e.g., device fin­ger­printing) within the meaning of the TTDSG. This con­sent can be revoked at any time.

IP anonymization

We use WP Stat­istics with anonym­ized IP. Your IP address is shortened so that it can no longer be dir­ectly assigned to you.

6. Plug-ins and Tools

YouTube with expanded data protection integration

Our web­site embeds videos of the web­site You­Tube. The web­site oper­ator is Google Ire­land Lim­ited (“Google”), Gordon House, Barrow Street, Dublin 4, Ire­land.

We use You­Tube in the expanded data pro­tec­tion mode. According to You­Tube, this mode ensures that You­Tube does not store any inform­a­tion about vis­itors to this web­site before they watch the video. Nev­er­the­less, this does not neces­sarily mean that the sharing of data with You­Tube part­ners can be ruled out as a result of the expanded data pro­tec­tion mode. For instance, regard­less of whether you are watching a video, You­Tube will always estab­lish a con­nec­tion with the Google Double­Click net­work.

As soon as you start to play a You­Tube video on this web­site, a con­nec­tion to YouTube’s servers will be estab­lished. As a result, the You­Tube server will be noti­fied, which of our pages you have vis­ited. If you are logged into your You­Tube account while you visit our site, you enable You­Tube to dir­ectly allocate your browsing pat­terns to your per­sonal pro­file. You have the option to pre­vent this by log­ging out of your You­Tube account.

Fur­ther­more, after you have started to play a video, You­Tube will be able to place various cookies on your device or com­par­able tech­no­lo­gies for recog­ni­tion (e.g. device fin­ger­printing). In this way You­Tube will be able to obtain inform­a­tion about this website’s vis­itors. Among other things, this inform­a­tion will be used to gen­erate video stat­istics with the aim of improving the user friend­li­ness of the site and to pre­vent attempts to commit fraud.

Under cer­tain cir­cum­stances, addi­tional data pro­cessing trans­ac­tions may be triggered after you have started to play a You­Tube video, which are beyond our con­trol.

The use of You­Tube is based on our interest in presenting our online con­tent in an appealing manner. Pur­suant to Art. 6(1)(f) GDPR, this is a legit­imate interest. If appro­priate con­sent has been obtained, the pro­cessing is car­ried out exclus­ively on the basis of Art. 6(1)(a) GDPR and § 25 (1) TTDSG, insofar the con­sent includes the storage of cookies or the access to inform­a­tion in the user’s end device (e.g., device fin­ger­printing) within the meaning of the TTDSG. This con­sent can be revoked at any time.

For more inform­a­tion on how You­Tube handles user data, please con­sult the You­Tube Data Pri­vacy Policy under: https://​policies​.google​.com/​p​r​i​v​a​c​y​?​h​l​=en.

Ninja Fire­wall is installed loc­ally on our servers and does not transmit any per­sonal data to the pro­vider of the tool or other third parties.
