DISCLAIMER

(1) Limitation of liability

Contents of this website

The contents of this website have been prepared with the greatest possible care. However, the provider does not guarantee the accuracy, completeness or timeliness of the content provided. The use of the available content is at the user’s own risk. Contributions identified by name reflect the opinion of the respective author and not always the opinion of the provider.

Availability of the website

The provider will endeavor to offer the service with as little interruption as possible. However, even with the utmost care, downtime cannot be ruled out. The provider reserves the right to change or discontinue its offer at any time.

External links

This website contains links to third-party websites (“external links”). These websites are subject to the liability of the respective operators. When the external links were first set up, the provider checked the third-party content to see if there were any legal violations. At that time, no legal violations were apparent. The provider has no influence on the current and future design and content of the linked pages. The inclusion of external links does not mean that the provider adopts the content behind the reference or link as his own. It is not reasonable to expect the provider to constantly monitor these external links without concrete evidence of legal violations. However, if we become aware of legal violations, such external links will be deleted immediately.

Advertisements

The respective author is responsible for the content of the advertisements, as well as for the content of the advertised website. The presentation of the advertisement does not constitute acceptance by the provider.

No contractual relationship

No contractual relationship shall come about between the user and the provider through the use of the provider’s website. In this respect, no contractual or quasi-contractual claims against the provider shall arise. In the event that use of the website should lead to a contractual relationship, the following limitation of liability shall apply as a purely precautionary measure:

The provider shall be liable for intent and gross negligence as well as for breach of a material contractual obligation (cardinal obligation).

The provider is liable, limited to compensation for the foreseeable, contract-typical damage at the time of conclusion of the contract, for such damages that are based on a slightly negligent breach of cardinal obligations by him or one of his legal representatives or vicarious agents. The provider is not liable for slightly negligent breaches of secondary obligations that are not cardinal obligations. Liability for damages that fall within the scope of protection of a guarantee or assurance given by the provider, as well as liability for claims based on the Product Liability Act and damages resulting from injury to life, limb or health, remains unaffected.

(2) Copyright

The content and works published on this website are protected by copyright. Any use not permitted by German copyright law requires the prior written consent of the respective author or creator. This applies in particular to the duplication, editing, translation, storage, processing or reproduction of content in databases or other electronic media and systems. Content and contributions from third parties are marked as such.

The unauthorized reproduction or distribution of individual contents or complete pages is not permitted and is punishable by law. Only the production of copies and downloads for personal, private and non-commercial use is permitted.

Links to the provider’s website are always welcome and do not require the consent of the website provider. The presentation of this website in external frames is only permitted with permission.

(3) Data protection

When you visit the provider’s website, information about the access (date, time, page viewed) may be stored on the server. This data is not personal, but is anonymized. It is used exclusively for statistical purposes. It is not passed on to third parties, for commercial or non-commercial purposes.

Furthermore, data may be stored on the website user’s computer. This data is called a “cookie” and is used to simplify the user’s access behavior. However, the user has the option of deactivating this function within the respective web browser. In this case, however, there may be restrictions on the usability of our website.

The provider expressly points out that data transmission over the internet (e.g. when communicating by e-mail) may have security gaps and cannot be completely protected against access by third parties.

The use of the provider’s contact details – in particular the telephone/fax numbers and email address – for commercial advertising is expressly not desired, unless the provider has given his prior written consent or a business contact already exists. The provider and all persons named on this website hereby object to any commercial use and disclosure of their data.

(4) Applicable law

The relevant laws of the Federal Republic of Germany shall apply exclusively.
