e) Imbedded YouTube videos

We embed YouTube videos on some of our websites. The operator of the corresponding plugins is YouTube, LLC, 901 Cherry Ave, San Bruno, CA 94066, USA.

When you visit a page with a YouTube plugin, a connection to YouTube servers is established. This tells Youtube which pages you are visiting. If you are logged into your YouTube account, YouTube can assign your surfing behaviour to you personally. You can prevent this by logging out of your Youtube account first.

 

If a Youtube video is started, the provider uses cookies that collect information about user behaviour. If you have deactivated the saving of cookies for the Google Ad programme, you will not have to expect any such cookies when watching Youtube videos. However, Youtube also stores non-personal usage information in other cookies. If you wish to prevent this, you must block the storage of cookies in your browser. Further information on data protection at “Youtube” can be found in the provider’s privacy policy.

f) Facebook

Futouris uses Facebook (Facebook Inc., 1601 S. California Ave, Palo Alto, CA 94304, USA). The Futouris Facebook page is linked to the Futouris website.

When you access the Futouris Facebook page, a connection is established between your browser and the Facebook servers. In the process, data is already transferred to Facebook. If you have a Facebook account, this data can be linked to it. If you do not wish this data to be associated with your Facebook account, please log out of Facebook before visiting our site. Interactions, in particular the use of a comment function or the clicking of a “Like” or “Share” button are also passed on to Facebook. You can find out more here.

No disclosure of personal data

We do not disclose your personal data to third parties unless you have consented to the disclosure of data, this is necessary for the performance of a contract concluded between you and us or we are entitled or obliged to disclose data due to statutory provisions and / or official or court orders. In particular, this may involve the disclosure of information for the purposes of criminal prosecution, to avert danger or to enforce intellectual property rights.

Deletion or blocking of data

We adhere to the principles of data avoidance and data economy. We therefore only store your personal data for as long as is necessary to achieve the purposes stated here or as stipulated by the various storage periods provided for by law. After the respective purpose has ceased to exist or these periods have expired, the corresponding data is routinely blocked or deleted in accordance with the statutory provisions.

Data of persons who have applied to us as employees will be deleted 3 months after completion of the application procedure if no contract is concluded with the applicant, provided that no other legitimate interests on our part oppose deletion.
