Plug-ins and Other

Use of Google Maps
We use the function for embedding Google Maps from Google Ireland Limited (Gordon House, Barrow Street, Dublin 4, Ireland, "Google") on our website.
The function enables the visual display of geographic information and interactive maps. When pages with embedded Google Maps are called up, Google also collects, processes, and uses data from website visitors.
Your data may also be transmitted to the USA. For the USA, an adequacy decision by the EU Commission exists, the Trans-Atlantic Data Privacy Framework (TADPF). Google
has certified itself under the TADPF and has thus committed to complying with European data protection principles.
The use of cookies or similar technologies is based on your consent pursuant to Section 25 (1) Sentence 1 TDDDG in conjunction with Art. 6 (1) lit. a GDPR.
