Use of Vimeo
We use plug-ins from Vimeo Inc. (555 West 18th Street New York, New York 10011, USA; “Vimeo”) on our website to embed videos from the “Vimeo” portal.
When you access pages of our website containing such a plug-in, a connection to Vimeo’s servers is established, and the plug-in is displayed on the page by notifying your browser. This transmits both your IP address and information about which of our pages you visited to Vimeo’s servers.
If you are logged in to Vimeo, Vimeo assigns this information to your personal user account. When using the plug-in functions (e.g., by starting a video by clicking the corresponding button), this information is also assigned to your Vimeo account.
Your data may be transferred to the USA. An adequacy decision by the European Commission exists for the USA, namely the Trans-Atlantic Data Privacy Framework (TADPF). Vimeo is not certified under the TADPF. The data transfer is based, among other things, on standard contractual clauses as appropriate safeguards for the protection of personal data, available at: https://commission.europa.eu/law/law-topic/data-protection/international-dimension-data-protection/standard-contractual-clauses-scc_de.
