3. Access Data / Server Log Files
When visiting this website, the hosting provider automatically collects and stores information in server log files. These may include:

4. Cookies and Local Storage
This website itself does not set cookies and does not use local storage or session storage. A technical check of the site in an anonymous browser session confirmed that no cookies and no browser storage entries are created when pages are opened.
YouTube videos on this website are only loaded after you click the play button. Only at that moment does the YouTube player set cookies or use local storage. You can restrict or delete cookies via your browser settings at any time.
5. YouTube (Click-to-Load)
Some posts embed videos from YouTube, operated by:
Google Ireland Limited
Gordon House, Barrow Street
Dublin 4, Ireland
Videos are displayed as local placeholders without loading any data from YouTube. Only when you click the play button is the video loaded in YouTube’s privacy-enhanced mode (youtube-nocookie.com). At that moment, a connection to YouTube servers is established, and YouTube learns that the video was played on this website.
If you are logged into your YouTube or Google account, YouTube may associate your viewing behavior with your personal profile. This can be prevented by logging out of your account before playing a video.
Legal basis:
Consent under Art. 6(1)(a) GDPR (given by clicking play)
YouTube Privacy Policy:

6. International Data Transfers
When you play a YouTube video, Google may process data on servers outside the European Union, including the United States. Appropriate safeguards such as Standard Contractual Clauses (SCCs) are used where applicable.

- Access personal data
