- Note on embed YouTube videos:
We use the YouTube.com platform to post our own videos and make them publicly available.
YouTube is the service of a third party not affiliated with us, namely YouTube LLC.
We use directly embed videos stored on YouTube on some of our web pages. With this integration, content from the YouTube website is displayed directly on the website via your web browser.
The YouTube videos are only called up by clicking on them separately. If you call up a (sub-)page of our website on which YouTube videos are embedded in this form, a connection to the YouTube servers is established and the content is displayed on the website by informing your browser. This connection is generally only triggered by explicit confirmation of the play button.
The integration of YouTube content only takes place in “extended data protection mode”. YouTube itself provides this mode and thus ensures that YouTube does not initially save any cookies on your device. However, when the relevant pages are called up, the IP address and other (technical) data are transmitted and thus in particular which of our Internet pages you have visited. However, this information cannot be assigned to you personally, unless you have logged in to YouTube or another Google service (e.g. Google+) before the call or are permanently logged in.
For more information on the purpose and scope of data collection and processing by YouTube, please see the privacy policy. There you will also find further information on your rights and setting options to protect your privacy: https://policies.google.com/privacy.
Insofar as the FFG is responsible under data protection law for establishing the connection to YouTube (for example, for transmitting the technically required data), the legal basis is the legitimate interest of the responsible party pursuant to Art. 6 (1)(f) GDPR. The legitimate interest here is the interest of the controller to make certain content available to users via the YouTube platform.
IV. Rights of the data subject

You have the right, vis-à-vis us, to request access to all data concerning you processed by us.
- Right to rectification and right to restriction of processing
You may request the rectification of inaccurate data or have incomplete data completed.
- Right to data portability
You may demand that we transmits to you – or if technically feasible to a third party indicated by you – a copy of your data in a structured, commonly used and machine-readable format.

In exercising this right, you also have the right to have the relevant personal data transmitted directly from one controller to another, where technically feasible. Rights and freedoms of others shall not be adversely affected by the above.

Under certain circumstances, you have the right to obtain erasure of your data, e.g. if your data is not processed in accordance with data protection requirements.
If you have asserted your right to rectification, erasure or restriction of processing vis-à-vis us, we are obligated to communicate such rectification or erasure of data or restriction of processing to each recipient to whom the personal data concerning you have been disclosed, unless this proves impossible or involves disproportionate effort.
- Right to object
You have the right to object, on grounds relating to your particular situation, at any time to processing of personal data concerning you which is based on Article 6(1)(e) or (f) GDPR, including profiling based on those provisions.
In that case, the controller shall no longer process your personal data unless the controller demonstrates compelling legitimate grounds for the processing which override your interests, rights and freedoms, or for the establishment, exercise or defence of legal claims.
- Right to withdraw consent
You have the right to withdraw your declaration of consent at any time.
The withdrawal of consent shall not affect the lawfulness of any consent-based processing performed until the withdrawal.

You have the right to lodge a complaint with the national supervisory authority in your place of residence if it is assumed that the processing of personal data is carried out unlawfully.
Each national supervisory authority shall be competent for the performance of the tasks assigned to and the exercise of the powers conferred on it in accordance with this Regulation on the territory of its own Member State.
Where processing is carried out by public authorities or private bodies acting on the basis of point (c) or (e) of Article 6 (1), the supervisory authority of the Member State concerned shall be competent.
