3. Embeds

3.1. BANDCAMP

This website embeds music of the website Bandcamp. The website operator is Bandcamp Inc., 178 Castro St., San Francisco, California 94114, USA.

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

The use of Bandcamp is based on my interest in presenting the online content in an appealing manner. Pursuant to Art. 6 Sect. 1 lit. f GDPR, this is a legitimate interest. If a corresponding agreement has been requested (e.g. an agreement to the storage of cookies), the processing takes place exclusively on the basis of Art. 6 para. 1 lit. a GDPR; the agreement can be revoked at any time.

3.2. YouTube

My 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 my pages you have visited. If you are logged into your YouTube account while you visit my 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. With the assistance of these cookies, YouTube will be able to obtain information about my 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. These cookies will stay on your device until you delete them.

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

The use of YouTube is based on my interest in presenting the online content in an appealing manner. Pursuant to Art. 6 Sect. 1 lit. f GDPR, this is a legitimate interest. If a corresponding agreement has been requested (e.g. an agreement to the storage of cookies), the processing takes place exclusively on the basis of Art. 6 para. 1 lit. a GDPR; the agreement can be revoked at any time.

3.3. Vimeo

Concerning services provided by Vimeo on this website

To present my video portfolios and other video content I chose to use Vimeo. Vimeo provides plugins to publish videos on this website.
Provider is Vimeo Inc., 555 West 18th Street, NY, New York 10011, USA.

If you visit one of these sites equipped with a Vimeo plugin, it will connect to Vimeo's servers. This tells the Vimeo server which of these pages you have visited. In addition, Vimeo obtains your IP address. This also applies if you are not logged in to Vimeo or do not have an account with Vimeo. The information collected by Vimeo is transmitted to the Vimeo server in the United States. If you are logged in to your Vimeo account, you allow Vimeo to associate your surfing behavior directly with your personal profile. You can prevent this by logging out of your Vimeo account.
