6. USE OF Vimeo Plugins

We use the provider Vimeo for the integration of videos. Vimeo is operated by Vimeo, LLC, headquartered at 555 West 18th Street, New York, New York 10011, USA.

We use plugins from the provider Vimeo on our website. When you access a website on our website that has such a plugin – for example, our media centre – a connection to the Vimeo servers is established and the plugin is displayed. This tells the Vimeo server which of our websites you have visited. If you are logged in to Vimeo as a member, Vimeo assigns this information to your personal user account. When you use the plugin, e.g. by clicking the start button of a video, this information is also assigned to your user account. You can prevent this assignment by logging out of your Vimeo user account before using our website and deleting the corresponding cookies from Vimeo.
