Use of script libraries (Google Webfonts, Font Awesome)

Type and purpose of processing: In order to display our content correctly and graphically appealing across browsers, we use "Google Web Fonts" from Google LLC (1600 Amphitheatre Parkway, Mountain View, CA 94043, USA; hereinafter "Google") to display fonts on this website. We also use Font Awesome Web Fonts, which are provided by Fonticons, Inc. The privacy policy of the library operator Google can be found here: https://www.google.com/policies/privacy/ Information about Font Awesome can be found at https:// fontawesome.com/help and in the privacy policy of Fonticons, Inc.: https://fontawesome.com/privacy. Legal basis: The legal basis for the integration of Google Webfonts and the associated data transfer to Google is your consent (Art. 6 para. 1 lit. a GDPR). Recipient: Calling up script libraries or font libraries automatically triggers a connection to the operator of the library. It is theoretically possible - but currently also unclear whether and for what purposes - that the operator collects Google data in this case. Storage period: We do not collect any personal data through the integration of Google Web Fonts. Further information on Google Web Fonts can be found at https://developers.google.com/fonts/faq and in Google's privacy policy: https://www.google.com/policies/privacy/. Third country transfer: Google processes your data in the USA and has submitted to the EU_US Privacy Shield https://www.privacyshield.gov/EU-US-Framework. Provision prescribed or required: The provision of personal data is neither legally nor contractually required. However, it is not possible to display the content of standard fonts correctly without it. Withdrawal of consent: The JavaScript programming language is regularly used to display the content. You can therefore object to data processing by deactivating the execution of JavaScript in your browser or installing a JavaScript blocker. Please note that this may result in functional restrictions on the website.
