Disclaimer

Content of the Online Offering
The author assumes no liability for the topicality, correctness, completeness, or quality of the information provided. Liability claims against the author relating to material or immaterial damage caused by the use or non-use of the information presented or by the use of incorrect and incomplete information are generally excluded, unless there is demonstrable intent or gross negligence on the part of the author. All offers are non-binding and without obligation. The author expressly reserves the right to change, supplement, or delete parts of the pages or the entire offering without separate announcement, or to temporarily or permanently cease publication.

References and Links
For direct or indirect references to external websites (“hyperlinks”) that are outside the author’s area of responsibility, liability would only arise if the author had knowledge of the content and it would be technically possible and reasonable for him to prevent its use in the case of illegal content. The author hereby expressly declares that no illegal content was discernible on the linked pages at the time the links were set. The author has no influence whatsoever on the current and future design, content, or authorship of the linked pages. Therefore, he hereby expressly dissociates himself from all content of all linked pages that were changed after the link was set. This statement applies to all links and references set within the author’s own internet offering, as well as to external entries in guest books, discussion forums, link directories, mailing lists, and all other forms of databases set up by the author, to whose content external write access is possible. For illegal, erroneous, or incomplete content and, in particular, for damages arising from the use or non-use of such information, only the provider of the page to which reference was made is liable, not the one who merely refers to the respective publication via links.

Copyright and Trademark Law
The author endeavors to observe the copyrights of the images, graphics, sound documents, video sequences, and texts used in all publications, to use images, graphics, sound documents, video sequences, and texts created by himself, or to utilize license-free graphics, sound documents, video sequences, and texts. All brands and trademarks mentioned within the internet offering and potentially protected by third parties are subject without restriction to the provisions of the applicable trademark law and the ownership rights of their respective registered owners. The mere mention of trademarks does not imply that they are not protected by third-party rights! The copyright for published objects created by the author remains solely with the author of the pages. Any reproduction or use of such graphics, sound documents, video sequences, and texts in other electronic or printed publications is not permitted without the author’s express consent.

Data Protection
If the internet offering provides the option to enter personal or business data (email addresses, names, addresses), the disclosure of this data by the user is expressly voluntary. The use and payment of all offered services is permitted – as far as technically possible and reasonable – even without providing such data, or by providing anonymized data or a pseudonym. The use of contact data published within the legal notice or comparable information, such as postal addresses, telephone and fax numbers, and email addresses, by third parties for sending unsolicited information is not permitted. Legal action against senders of so-called spam emails in case of violations of this prohibition is expressly reserved.

Legal Validity of this Disclaimer
This disclaimer is to be regarded as part of the internet offering from which this page was referenced. Should parts or individual formulations of this text not, no longer, or not fully comply with the current legal situation, the remaining parts of the document shall remain unaffected in their content and validity.
