Terms

Online Content

The author accepts no responsibility for the topicality, correctness, completeness or quality of the information provided. Liability claims against the author which refer to damages of material or immaterial nature caused by use or disuse of the presented information or by the use of faulty and incomplete information are excluded, unless the author is intentional or grossly negligent. All offers are non-binding and without obligation. The author expressly reserves the right to change parts of the pages or the entire offer without separate announcement, to supplement, to delete or cease publication temporarily or permanently.

Direct and indirect links

As regards direct and indirect links to third-party websites – for which the author of this website bears no responsibility – liability can only be shown to exist if the author of this website can be proven to have knowledge of the third-party content, and if he can be proven to possess the technical possibilities, and be considered reasonable, for the author to prevent access to content of a questionable or illegal nature. The author of this website hereby explicitly declares that at the time when the links were installed, he/she was not aware of any unsuitable or illegal content on the linked sites. The author of this site has no influence on the present and future design, content or authorship of linked sites or pages. Consequently, the author distances himself/herself explicitly from any content changed on linked pages or sites since the installation of the link. This statement applies to all links and suggested reading within the overall online offering of this website, and to third-party contributions in visitor books, forums and mailing lists set up by the author. The provider of the linked third-party site is solely responsible for illegal, erroneous or incomplete content on that website, and particularly for damage caused by the use, or failure to use, such information as presented. The person who merely installs the links to such published content may not be held responsible for the content to which they lead.

Authorship, copyrights and labelling law

The author shall endeavour to respect the rights of the originator, trademarks and copyrights, for all texts, images, audio files or video sequences, in all publications – and, furthermore, to use texts, images, audio files or video sequences he/she has produced himself/herself, or to use texts, images, audio files and video sequences licensed for general public use. All brands and trademarks featured on the website, and those protected by third parties, are – in their entirety – subject to the provisions of the respectively valid and applicable copyrights and trademark legislation, and to the rights of ownership of the registered owner. The conclusion must not be drawn that the mere labelling or naming guarantees exoneration from the consequences of possible third-party brand, copyright and trademark protection! Copyrights for content created and subsequently published by the website author remain solely within his/her domain. Copying or use of any such texts, images, audio files or video sequences, in any other digital or printed publications, is strictly forbidden without the explicit permission of the author/originator.

Legal efficacy of this exclusion of liability

This exclusion of liability is integral to – and applicable to – the content of all online offerings on this website. Regardless of whether part of, or the wording of, this text does not comply with current legal provisions, no longer does so, or does not do so in its entirety, this shall not affect its validity for the remaining content of the document.
