If the processing does not serve the purpose of contract initiation or contract fulfilment, our legitimate interest lies in improving the functionality of our website.

This connection is necessary to display the respective video on our website via your web browser. In the process, YouTube will collect and process at least your IP address, the date and time, and the website you visited. Additionally, a connection to Google’s “DoubleClick” advertising network is established. If you are logged into YouTube at the same time, YouTube will associate the connection information with your YouTube account.
