We respect your right to privacy and therefore wish to inform you about the handling of personal data with this Privacy Policy. <\/p>

<\/p>

Overview<\/strong><\/p>

<\/p>

The protection of personal data is of great importance to many internet users and forms an essential basis for a pleasant and satisfactory experience with the internet. OHL always pays close attention to the questions and concerns of customers and other visitors to our website regarding data protection and complies with the relevant laws, particularly the General Data Protection Regulation (hereinafter referred to as GDPR). <\/p>

<\/p>

Please note that data transmission over the internet can inherently be subject to security vulnerabilities. Complete protection against unauthorized access by third parties is not feasible! <\/p>

<\/p>

In this Privacy Policy, you will learn what data we collect, for what purposes we collect it, and what happens to the collected data. Since this is important, you should take the time to read our Privacy Policy carefully. <\/p>

<\/p>

Alternatively, you have the option to contact us by phone, for example. Data processing always takes place in accordance with the General Data Protection Regulation.

15. Analysis Tools Used<\/p>

We refrain from using analysis tools or tracking methods.<\/p>

<\/p>

a) Use of YouTube Plugins (Videos)<\/p>

On some pages of our website, videos stored on YouTube are embedded. YouTube is a service of Google Inc., 1600 Amphitheatre Parkway, Mountain View, CA 94043, USA. For all YouTube videos on our website, the “extended data protection mode” is activated. YouTube provides this and thereby guarantees that YouTube does not store cookies with personal data on your computer. When accessing the website and embedding the videos, the IP address is transmitted. This cannot be assigned unless you have logged in to YouTube or another Google service before accessing the page or are permanently logged in.
As soon as you start playing an embedded video by clicking on it, YouTube, through the extended data protection mode, only stores cookies on your computer that do not contain personally identifiable data. These cookies can be prevented by appropriate browser settings and extensions. Furthermore, when our videos start, data is transferred to YouTube according to point “2. Collection of General Data (Log Files)” and thus constitutes a prior declaration of consent from you to YouTube. Further information on the integration of YouTube videos can be found on YouTube’s information page. <\/p>

b) Google Maps<\/p>

Our website uses the Google Maps map service via an API. The provider is Google Inc., 1600 Amphitheatre Parkway, Mountain View, CA 94043, USA. To use the functions of Google Maps, it is necessary to store your IP address. This information is usually transmitted to a Google server in the USA and stored there. The provider of this site has no influence on this data transfer. The use of Google Maps is in the interest of an appealing presentation of our online offers and easy discoverability of the locations we indicate on the website. This represents a legitimate interest within the meaning of Art. 6 para. 1 lit. f GDPR.
