7.7 Vimeo

 

  • Superstring Solutions AG also uses videos of the company Vimeo on the platform. The video portal is operated by Vimeo LLC, 555 West 18th Street, New York, New York 10011, USA. With the help of a plug-in, we can show you interesting video material directly on our platform. In the process, certain data may be transferred from you to Vimeo. You can find more information on data processing by Vimeo at https://vimeo.zendesk.com/hc/de/sections/203915088-Datenschutz.
  • When you visit our platform that has a Vimeo video embedded, your browser connects to the servers of Vimeo. This results in a data transmission. This data is collected, stored and processed on the servers of Vimeo. Vimeo collects data about you, regardless of whether you have a Vimeo account or not. This includes your IP address, technical info about your browser type, operating system or very basic device information. Furthermore, Vimeo stores information about the website, from which you use the Vimeo service and which actions (web activities) you perform on our platform. These web activities include, for example, session duration, bounce rate or which button you clicked on our platform with built-in Vimeo function.
  • If you are logged in to Vimeo as a registered member, more data can usually be collected, as more cookies may have already been set in your browser. In addition, your actions on our platform are directly linked to your Vimeo account. To prevent this, you must log out of Vimeo while “surfing” our platform.

 

7.8. Google Fonts

  • On our platform we use Google Fonts. These are the “Google Fonts” by the company Google Inc. For the European area, the company Google Ireland Limited (Gordon House, Barrow Street Dublin 4, Ireland) is responsible for all Google services. You can also find more information on data processing by Google at https://www.google.com/intl/de/policies/privacy/.
  • You do not need to log in or enter a password to use Google Fonts. Furthermore, no cookies are stored in your browser. The files (CSS, fonts) are requested via the Google domains fonts.googleapis.com and fonts.gstatic.com. According to Google, the requests for CSS and fonts are completely separate from all other Google services. If you have a Google account, you do not need to worry that your Google account information, while using Google Fonts, will be transmitted to Google. Google records the usage of CSS (Cascading Style Sheets) and the fonts used and stores this data securely.
  • When you visit our platform, the fonts are reloaded via a Google server. Through this external call, data is transmitted to the Google servers. In this way, Google also recognizes that you or your IP address is visiting our website.
  • Google Fonts stores CSS and font requests securely at Google and is therefore protected. Through the collected usage figures, Google can determine how well the individual fonts are received. Google publishes the results on internal analysis pages, such as Google Analytics. In addition, Google also uses data from its own web crawler to determine which websites are using Google fonts.
  • Through each Google Font request, information such as language settings, IP address, browser version, browser screen resolution, and browser name are also automatically transmitted to the Google servers. Whether this data is also stored cannot be clearly determined or is not clearly communicated by Google.
  • Google stores requests for CSS assets for one day on its servers, which are mainly located outside the EU. This allows us to use fonts with the help of a Google stylesheet. A stylesheet is a format template that can be used to easily and quickly change the design or font of a website, for example. The font files are stored by Google for one year.
