Our website embeds content from YouTube (Google). When loading/playing, personal data (e.g., IP address, device information) may be transmitted to YouTube/Google. Cookies or similar technologies may also be used.
If we load YouTube only after consent, processing is based on your consent.

To display the video library, the website may send requests to Google/YouTube interfaces. Due to technical necessity, your IP address is transmitted to Google, among other data.
