4.    Integration of services and contents of third parties
4.1    Based on our legitimate interests (i.e. interest in the analysis, optimisation and economic operation of our online offer), we use service and content offers from third-party providers within our online offer in order to integrate their content and services (hereinafter uniformly referred to as "services/content").
This always requires that the third-party providers of these services/content are aware of the IP address of the user, as without the IP address they would not be able to send the services/content to their browser. The IP address is therefore necessary for the execution of the services or display of this content. We endeavour to only use content whose respective providers only use the IP address to deliver the content. Third-party providers may use so-called tracking codes and pixel tags (invisible graphics, also known as "web beacons") for statistical or marketing purposes. Tracking codes and "pixel tags" can be used to analyse information such as visitor traffic on the pages of this website. The pseudonymous information may also be stored in cookies on the user's device and may contain, among other things, technical information about the browser and operating system, referring websites, time of visit and other information about the use of our online offering, as well as being linked to such information from other sources.
a.    Google Analytics
Google Analytics may be integrated within our online offer. Google Analytics is a web analysis service offered by Google LLC, 1600 Amphitheatre Parkway, Mountain View, CA 94043, USA ("Google").
The information collected by Google Analytics about your use of this website is generally transmitted to a Google server in the USA and stored there. However, due to the activation of IP anonymisation on these websites, your IP address will be truncated beforehand by Google within member states of the European Union or in other contracting states of the Agreement on the European Economic Area. Only in exceptional cases will the full IP address be transmitted to a Google server in the USA and shortened there. On behalf of the operator of this website, Google will use this information for the purpose of evaluating your use of the website, compiling reports on website activity and providing other services relating to website activity and internet usage to the website operator.
You can prevent the collection by Google Analytics by downloading and installing the browser plug-in available under the following link: Browser add-on to disable Google Analytics (https://tools.google.com/dlpage/gaoptout?hl=en).
Google is certified under the Privacy Shield agreement and thereby offers a guarantee of compliance with European data protection law (https://www.privacyshield.gov/participant?id=a2zt000000001L5AAI&status=Active). For more information on Google's use of data, settings and opt-out options, please refer to Google's privacy policy (https://policies.google.com/technologies/ads) and the settings for the display of advertising by Google (https://adssettings.google.com/authenticated).
b.    Vimeo Plugins
We use the provider Vimeo, among others, for the integration of videos. Vimeo is operated by Vimeo, LLC with headquarters at 555 West 18th Street, New York, New York 10011.
On some of our pages, we use plugins from the provider Vimeo. When you call up the Internet pages of our website that are provided with such a plugin - for example, our media library - a connection is established to the Vimeo servers and the plugin is displayed. This transmits to the Vimeo server which of our Internet pages you have visited. If you are logged in as a Vimeo member, Vimeo assigns this information to your personal user account. When using the plugin, such as clicking on 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.
Further information on data processing and notes on data protection by Vimeo can be found at https://vimeo.com/privacy.

5.    The protection of minors

If you are responsible for the supervision of a person under the age of 14 and notice that the minor has transmitted data to us without our consent, please contact us immediately so that we can take the legal measures in the minor's interest.

6.    Your rights
6.1    You are generally entitled to the rights of access, rectification, deletion, restriction, data portability, revocation and objection pursuant to Art. 15-22 of Regulation 2016/679.
Of course, you have the right to revoke your consent to receive the newsletter at any time (for example, via the opt-out function in the newsletter footer).
6.2    If you revoke your consent to data processing, this will not affect the lawfulness of the data processing prior to the revocation. In certain cases, your personal data may still be processed by us after your revocation; however, this will only be the case if there is a lawful reason other than consent. You can object to direct marketing at any time.
6.3     You have the right at any time to contact the national data protection authority (www.garanteprivacy.it) and lodge a complaint if you believe that your data is not processed in accordance with the purposes listed in this information document and on the basis of the grounds of lawfulness set out accordingly.
