## 6. Social media and embedded content

### Instagram

This website contains links to Instagram, a service provided by **Meta Platforms Ireland Ltd.**, Merrion Road, Dublin 4, D04 X2K5, Ireland.

We use simple links rather than active plug-ins, so no data is transmitted to Meta until you click through to Instagram. If you are logged into your Instagram account when you do so, Meta may associate that visit with your account.

Meta's privacy policy: https://privacycenter.instagram.com/policy

### LinkedIn

This website contains links to LinkedIn, a service provided by **LinkedIn Ireland Unlimited Company**, Wilton Plaza, Wilton Place, Dublin 2, Ireland.

We use simple links rather than active plug-ins, so no data is transmitted to LinkedIn until you click through. If you are logged into your LinkedIn account when you do so, LinkedIn may associate that visit with your account.

LinkedIn's privacy policy: https://www.linkedin.com/legal/privacy-policy

### YouTube (extended data protection mode)

This website embeds videos from YouTube, a service provided by Google Ireland Limited, Gordon House, Barrow Street, Dublin 4, Ireland.

We use YouTube in extended data protection mode. According to YouTube, this means that YouTube does not store information about visitors to this website before they play a video. However, a connection to Google's DoubleClick network is established regardless.

As soon as you start playing a video, a connection to YouTube's servers is established and YouTube is informed which of our pages you have visited. If you are logged into your YouTube account, YouTube can assign your browsing behaviour to your personal profile. You can prevent this by logging out of your YouTube account.

After you start a video, YouTube may set cookies on your device. These are used to collect information about visitors, generate video statistics and prevent fraud. They remain on your device until you delete them.

**Legal basis:** Where consent has been requested, processing takes place exclusively on the basis of Art. 6(1)(a) GDPR and § 25(1) TDDDG; consent can be withdrawn at any time. Otherwise, the use of YouTube is based on our legitimate interest in presenting our content attractively, pursuant to Art. 6(1)(f) GDPR.

### Adobe Fonts

To ensure the consistent display of certain typefaces, this website uses Adobe Fonts, provided by Adobe Inc., 345 Park Avenue, San Jose, CA 95110-2704, USA.

When you access this website, your browser loads the required fonts directly from Adobe's servers. As a result, Adobe learns that your IP address was used to access this website. According to Adobe, no cookies are stored in connection with the provision of fonts.

**Transfer to third countries:** Adobe is certified under the **EU-US Data Privacy Framework**, which the European Commission recognised as providing an adequate level of protection in its adequacy decision of 10 July 2023.

**Legal basis:** Art. 6(1)(f) GDPR — our legitimate interest in the consistent presentation of this website.

## 7. Storage duration
