Our website uses features provided by the Vimeo video portal. This service is provided by Vimeo Inc., 555 West 18th Street, New York, New York 10011, USA. If you visit one of our pages featuring a Vimeo Iframe, a connection to the Vimeo servers is established. Here the Vimeo server is informed about which of our pages you have visited. In addition, Vimeo will receive your IP address. This also applies if you are not logged in to Vimeo when you visit our website or do not have a Vimeo account. The information is transmitted to a Vimeo server in the US, where it is stored. If you are logged in to your Vimeo account, Vimeo allows you to associate your browsing behavior directly with your personal profile. You can prevent this by logging out of your Vimeo account. For more information on how to handle user data, please refer to the Vimeo Privacy Policy at https://vimeo.com/privacy. Vimeo will be disabled on first website visit. A cookie wall will block and whiten the pages with Vimeo content. To access the page and to be able to watch Vimeo Videos you have to consent to the “External Media” – Button inside the Cookie Banner.
Our website uses services of “SoundCloud” a platform for audio material. The provider is SoundCloud Global Limited & Co. KG, Rheinsberger Str. 76/77, 10115 Berlin in Germany. We use SoundCloud by embedding individual audio files or playlists from the platform on our website in the form of an iFrame, so that they can be played directly on our website. When you visit a subpage of our website on which a SoundCloud iFrame is embedded, a direct connection is established between your browser and the SoundCloud server after the embedded content is activated. SoundCloud thereby receives the information that you have visited our page with your IP address. For more information, please see SoundCloud’s privacy policy at: https://soundcloud.com/pages/privacy. Soundcloud will be disabled on first website visit. A cookie wall will block and whiten the pages with Soundcloud content.

Wavematters.eu uses Wordfence as its security system. This plugin automatically reads the IP addresses of visitors to the site, with the aim of reporting malicious attacks against the wavematters.com site and countering them if necessary (spacing out connection attempts, etc.). This IP address can be sent to Wordfence’s servers, located in the United States, if the behaviour followed has been detected as malicious (for example: the IP address follows a pattern typically used by hackers, hacking attempts have been identified on the site, attempt to access the site administration with an unrecognized identifier, …). In the case of normal use of the wavematters.com website, your IP address will not be transmitted to Wordfence. Read Wordfence’s confidentiality policy

However, it is not reasonable to have permanent content control of links without concrete evidence of a legal violation. We will remove such links immediately upon notification of any infringement.
