II Access data/server log files/data processing on YouTube/Google

III User/visitor comments and posts

When users leave comments in a blog or other posts, their IP addresses are stored. This is done to protect the provider in case someone enters illegal content in comments and posts (insults, prohibited political propaganda, etc.). In such cases, the provider can be held liable for the comment or contribution and is therefore interested in the identity of the author.

If the user has a Google account, Google may display the profile name, profile picture, and actions performed by the user on Google or in third-party applications linked to the Google account in its services as well as in adverts and in other commercial contexts.

TH Bingen reserves the right to delete posts from third parties. Unauthorised third-party advertising and commercial use by third parties is excluded.

The purpose and scope of the data collection and the further processing and use of the data by Google as well as the related rights and setting options to protect the privacy of users can be found in Google’s privacy policy: https://policies.google.com/privacy?hl=en
