PLUGINS
YOUTUBE – PLUGINS
Although our website displays YouTube content run by Google, the YouTube website is operated by YouTube, LLC, 901 Cherry Ave, San Bruno, CA 94066, USA, a subsidiary of Google. When users visit a YouTube content page, their browser connects to YouTube’s servers directly, and collects the content for them to view. This process is governed by Art. 6 Paragraph 1 f) of the GDPR (section covering ‘legitimate interests’, based on our goal of offering a website with the most interesting and appealing content possible).
Upon embedding YouTube content, a user’s browser interacts with a U.S.-based YouTube server that may save the content collected by the browser. To date, the European Commission has not ruled that the United States generally offers sufficient levels of data protection. However, as a Google subsidiary, YouTube has undertaken to comply with the EU-U.S. Privacy Shield published by the United States Secretary of Commerce on collecting, using and storing personal data sourced from the EU’s Member States. More information can be found here: https://support.google.com/analytics/answer/7105316?hl=fr.
If a user is logged in to their YouTube account, they automatically authorise YouTube to link their browsing behaviours directly to their personal profile. Users can prevent this by logging out of their YouTube account prior to visiting our website.
