This site uses links to the map service Google Maps under https://www.swoboda.com/en/company/locations/wiggensbach/. The provider of this service is Google Inc., 1600 Amphitheater Parkway, Mountain View, CA 94043, USA. To use the features of Google Maps, it may be necessary to save your location or IP address. Further personal data may be recorded by Google if you are signed into your Google account while you are using our website.

Application and use of YouTube
We have integrated videos from YouTube on our pages. YouTube is an Internet video portal that enables video publishers to upload video clips free of charge and allows other users to view, review, and comment on such videos free of charge too. YouTube allows all types of videos to be uploaded, which means both full movies and TV broadcasts, as well as music videos, trailers, and videos made by users can be viewed via the Internet portal. The operating company of YouTube is YouTube, LLC, 901 Cherry Ave., San Bruno, CA 94066, USA, a subsidiary of Google Inc., 1600 Amphitheatre Pkwy, Mountain View, CA 94043-1351, USA. Each time a webpage is accessed that contains YouTube components (a YouTube video), the Internet browser on the IT system of the user is automatically prompted to download a representation of the corresponding YouTube component from YouTube. Further information about YouTube can be obtained at www.youtube.com/yt/about. Within the framework of this technical procedure, YouTube and Google gain knowledge of the specific subpage of www.swoboda.com visited by the data subject. If the data subject is also logged in to YouTube, YouTube can identify, with each view of the subpage that contains a YouTube video, the specific website that has been visited. This information is collected by YouTube and Google and matched to the respective YouTube account of the data subject. This happens regardless of whether the data subject clicks on a YouTube video or not. If the transmission of this information to YouTube and Google is not desired by the data subject, he or she can prevent it by logging out of their YouTube account before visiting our website. You can also find information about the collection, processing and use of personal data in the data privacy provisions at https://policies.google.com/privacy?hl=en.

Use of content from Instagram
This website uses integrated functions of the service Instagram. These functions are provided by Meta Platforms Ireland Limited, Merrion Road, Dublin 4, D04 X2K5, Ireland. When the social media element is active, a direct connection is established between your device and the Instagram server. As a result, Instagram receives information about your visit to this website. If you are logged into your Instagram account, you can link the content of this website to your Instagram profile by clicking on the Instagram button. This allows Instagram to allocate your visit to this website to your user account. We would like to point out that, as the provider of the pages, we have no knowledge of the content of the transmitted data or its use by Instagram. The use of this service is based on your consent in accordance with Art. 6 para. 1 lit. a of the General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR) and Section 25 para. 1 of the German Telecommunications Digital Services Data Protection Act (TDDDG). Consent can be revoked at any time. Insofar as personal data is collected on our website using the tool described here and forwarded to Facebook or Instagram, we and Meta Platforms Ireland Limited, 4 Grand Canal Square, Grand Canal Harbour, Dublin 2, Ireland are jointly responsible for this data processing (Art. 26 GDPR). The joint responsibility is limited exclusively to the collection of data and its transfer to Facebook or Instagram. The processing carried out by Facebook or Instagram after forwarding is not part of the joint responsibility. The joint obligations incumbent on us were set out in an agreement on joint processing. The text of the agreement can be found at https://www.facebook.com/legal/controller_addendum. According to this agreement, we are responsible for providing data protection information during the use of the Facebook or Instagram tool and for the secure implementation of the tool on our website in accordance with data protection law. Facebook is responsible for the data security of Facebook and Instagram products. You can assert your rights as a data subject (e.g. requests for information) regarding the data processed by Facebook or Instagram directly with Facebook. If you assert your rights as a data subject with us, we are obliged to forward the case to Facebook. Data transfer to the USA is based on the standard contractual clauses of the EU Commission.
