We use certain third-party services on our Digital Offerings that may set cookies or similar technologies.
For example, when you view embedded content such as videos from YouTube, your browser may connect directly to the provider’s servers.

These cookies are controlled by the respective provider.
In addition, our Digital Offerings may contain links to external platforms (e.g. social media pages). If you click on such a link, you will be redirected to the respective third-party website. From that point on, the third party is solely responsible for any data collection and use, including the use of cookies. We have no control over the content, privacy practices, or cookies of these external websites.
