3.5. Use of Cookies
We use small text files called cookies and similar technologies to track how you use our website, provide the website comfortably, customize the website to your interests, and evaluate system security and stability ("Cookies"). This allows the website to record or store your actions and preferences. Cookies collect data on your device and are transmitted to us or our service providers. Therefore, as a user and data subject according to the DSGVO, you have full control over the use of cookies. By changing the settings in your internet browser or in our cookie settings solution www.worldoffreesports-tv.de/cookie-erklaerung, you can enable, disable, or restrict cookies.

We use the following categories of cookies:

• Necessary Cookies: These cookies are necessary for the proper functioning of the website; they allow you to navigate the website and use our features.
• Preferential Cookies: These cookies allow our website to remember information that affects the way a website behaves or looks, such as your preferred language or region.
• Statistics Cookies: These cookies help us understand how visitors interact with our website by providing information about which areas they visited, how much time they spent on the website, and any encountered issues, such as error messages. This helps us improve the performance of our website.
• Marketing Cookies: These cookies are used to provide advertisements that are relevant to you and your interests. They are also used to limit the frequency with which you see an ad and help measure the effectiveness of advertising campaigns. These cookies remember your visits to the website and may be shared with other companies.

The cookies used on the website are either first-party or third-party cookies. First-party cookies are set by Mainstream Media and have the same domain. Third-party cookies, on the other hand, are stored by a third-party or external company.

3.6. Use of Vimeo
On our website, Vimeo videos are embedded and playable directly on our website. This involves using plugins from the video portal Vimeo. The operator is Vimeo, Inc., 555 West 18th Street, New York, New York 10011, USA ("Vimeo"). We have integrated Vimeo videos in a privacy-friendly manner. Only when you click on a video will a connection be established to Vimeo's servers, and certain personal usage data (e.g., your IP address and the video you are watching) will be transmitted to Vimeo. As long as you do not click on the video to view it, you will remain invisible to Vimeo. We use this privacy-friendly approach so that Vimeo does not track your usage behaviour without your active consent. By clicking on the video, you consent to Vimeo's data processing. Vimeo will then process the above-mentioned usage data, at least. For the data processing by Vimeo and the use of cookies by Vimeo, Vimeo is responsible. Please be aware that the transmission occurs regardless of whether you have a user account with Vimeo and are logged in or not. If you are logged in through your personal Vimeo account, Vimeo may associate your browsing behaviour with your personal profile. If you do not wish for such an association, you must log out of your Vimeo account before visiting our website. We do not receive this information.
For more information on the scope and purpose of data collection and processing by Vimeo, please refer to Vimeo's privacy policy, accessible at www.vimeo.com/privacy.

The use of a messaging service is voluntary. If you have subscribed to a messaging service and no longer wish to use it, you can unsubscribe at any time. The lawfulness of the processing based on your consent until revocation remains unaffected.
