DISCLAIMER
1. Online-content
The author reserves the right not to be responsible for the topicality, correctness, completeness or quality of the information provided. Any liability claims against the author, which refer to material or non-material damage, and which may be caused by the usage or non-usage of the information provided or, respectively, by the usage of any incorrect or incomplete information, is generally excluded unless in cases of evidenced willful or gross negligence on the author's side.
All offers are not-binding and without obligation. The author expressly reserves the right to modifications, amendments, or cancellations of the offer, in whole or in part, or to the temporary or final discontinuation of this publication without any prior notice.
2. References and links
Where direct or indirect references to other websites (hyperlinks) are concerned, which lie beyond the sphere of responsibility of the author, an obligation to assume liability would take effect exclusively in the case of the author having knowledge of the content, and it having been technically feasible and reasonable for him to have prevented its use in the case of it having unlawful content.
The author herewith explicitly declares that at the time of setting the link, no unlawful content could be detected on the pages linked. The author shall have no influence whatsoever on the current and future creative design, contents or copyright of the linked pages. He therefore explicitly disassociates himself herewith from all the content of all the linked pages that have been changed after setting the links. This statement shall be valid for all the links and references set within the scope of the author's own Internet offer and also for entries by third persons in the guest books, discussion forums and mailing lists set up by the author. Where unlawful, erroneous or incomplete content is concerned, especially damages arising from the usage or non-usage of the information offered, the provider of the page to which the reference is made shall be solely liable, and not the party who merely makes reference to the respective publication via links.
3. Copyrights and Protection of Identification / Trademarks
The author endeavours to observe the copyrights of the graphs, audio and video files and files/sequences and texts in all the publications, to use his own graphs, audio and video files/sequences and texts, or to have recourse to graphs, audio and video files/sequences and texts requiring no license.
All the trademarks named in the Internet offer and, where applicable, those protected by third persons, are subject without restriction to the legal provisions of the respectively valid right to protected identification/trademarks and the rights of ownership of the respective registered owners. The fact that a trademark has merely been named shall not imply that trademarks are not protected by the rights of third persons!
The copyright for any published items produced by the author himself shall remain solely with the author of these pages. Duplication or utilization of such graphs, audio and video files/sequences and texts in other electronic or printed publications shall be prohibited unless the author has granted his explicit consent.
4. Data protection:
As long as the internet pages offer the possibility to enter private data (e-mail addresses, names, addresses) then the entering of such information by users of the pages is done entirely on a voluntary basis. The utilisation and payment of all services offered is - as far as is possible technically and realistically – also possible without providing such personal data, e.g., by giving anonymous data or by using a pseudonym.
The use in the context of the imprint or comparable data of the published contact contacts such as postal addresses, telephone and fax numbers as well as email addresses through third to the transmittal of not expressly requested information is not permitted. Legal steps against the senders of so-called Spam mails with offences against this prohibition are expressly reserved.
5. Legal validity of the exemption from liability (disclaimer)
This exemption from liability (disclaimer) shall be deemed as a part of the Internet offer, from which reference to this page has been made. If any parts or individual formulations of this text should fail to conform to the valid legal situation, or be no longer or not fully in conformity therewith, this shall not affect the content or validity of the remaining parts of the document.
