VI. Transfer to third countries
When using the Youtube service from Google, personal data is transferred to the USA. The US is considered a non-secure third country with regard to data protection, for which neither adequacy decisions of the EU Commission nor other guarantees exist. Neither the protection of personal data known from the EU exists there, nor do corresponding rights or legal remedies of the data subjects exist with regard to their personal data. In particular, there is a risk that secret and intelligence services as well as other authorities can access your personal data unhindered, for example within the framework of the CLOUD Act, and that there are no effective legal remedies against this. Such data transfer to the USA is covered by your consent, e.g. to the use of cookies. Otherwise, we do not transfer your personal data to countries outside the EU or the EEA or to international organisations.

When the statute of limitations comes into effect, we will delete your personal information, unless there is a legal retention requirement, for example from the German Commercial Code (sections 238, 257(4) German Commercial Code) or from the German Fiscal Law (section 147(3), (4) German Fiscal Law).
