Legal Notes

Content of the online offer

The author accepts no responsibility whatsoever for the up-to-dateness, correctness, completeness or quality of the information provided. Liability claims against the author which refer to material or immaterial damage caused by the use or non-use of the information provided or by the use of incorrect and incomplete information are generally excluded, unless there is proof of intent or gross negligence on the part of the author. All offers are subject to change and non-binding. The author expressly reserves the right to change, supplement or delete parts of the pages or the entire offer without separate announcement or to cease publication temporarily or permanently.

References and Links

In case of direct or indirect references to third-party websites (“links”) which are outside of the author’s area of responsibility, a liability obligation would come into force exclusively in the case in which the author has knowledge of the contents and it would be technically possible and reasonable for him to prevent the use in case of illegal contents. The author therefore expressly declares that the corresponding linked pages were free of illegal contents at the time the links were set. The author has no influence whatsoever on the current and future design and the contents of the linked/connected pages. Therefore, he hereby expressly distances himself from all contents of all linked/connected pages which have been modified after the link was set. This statement applies to all links and references set within the own Internet offer as well as to external entries in guest books, discussion forums and mailing lists established by the author. The provider of the page referred to, and not the party that merely references the respective publication via links, is solely liable for illegal, incorrect or incomplete contents and in particular for damages arising from the use or non-use of information provided in this way.

Copyright and Labeling Rights

The author endeavors in all publications to observe the copyrights of the graphics, sound documents, video sequences and texts used, to make use of graphics, sound documents, video sequences and texts created by himself or to resort to license-free graphics, sound documents, video sequences and texts. The copyright of published objects created by the author himself remains solely with the author of the pages. Duplication or use of such graphics, sound documents, video sequences and texts in other electronic or printed publications is not permitted without the express consent of the author.
