Disclaimer

Liability for Content

As a service provider, we are responsible under general law, in accordance with § 7 para. 1 of the TMG, for our own content on this website. Pursuant to §§ 8 to 10 of the TMG, however, we as service providers are not obliged to monitor information transferred or stored by third parties, or to investigate circumstances that suggest unlawful activity. Obligations under general law regarding the removal or blocking of the usage of information remain unaffected. Any liability in this respect is, however, only possible from the moment that the specific legal infringement becomes known. Upon notification of such an infringement we shall immediately remove the content.

Liability for links

Our site includes links to external third party websites over whose content we have no control. We therefore cannot accept any liability for this external content. The relevant provider or operator of the linked site is always responsible for its content. The linked sites were checked at the time of linking for possible violations of law. No unlawful content was apparent at the time the links were created. Permanent monitoring of the content of linked sites is however not reasonable without concrete evidence of an infringement of the law. Upon notification of an infringement, we will remove any such links immediately.

Copyright

The content and work on this site created by the website operator are subject to German copyright law. Reproduction, processing, distribution and any form of use outside the limits of copyright law require the written consent of the respective author or creator. Downloads and copies of this site are only permitted for private, non-commercial use. Insofar as the content on this website was not created by the website operator, the copyrights of third parties are respected. In particular, content originating from third parties shall be identified as such. Nevertheless, should you become aware of a copyright infringement, we request that you notify us accordingly. Upon notification of an infringement, we shall immediately remove such content.

Privacy Policy

Data protection

It is normally possible to use our website without providing personal information. Insofar as personal information (such as names, addresses or e-mail addresses) is collected on our site, this shall always take place, as far as possible, on a voluntary basis. This information shall not be disclosed to third parties without your express consent.

We should like to point out that transfer of data over the internet (for example, when communicating by email) can present security risks. Complete protection of data against unauthorised access by third parties is not possible.

We hereby expressly object to the use by third parties of contact information published in accordance with the obligatory legal disclaimer for the purpose of sending unsolicited advertisements and information. The site operator explicitly reserves the right to take legal action in the event of the unsolicited dispatch of promotional information, for example by spam emails.
