The aut­hor assu­mes no lia­bi­li­ty for the topi­ca­li­ty, cor­rec­t­ness, com­ple­teness or qua­li­ty of the infor­ma­ti­on pro­vi­ded. Lia­bi­li­ty claims made against the aut­hor, which rela­te to loss of good­will or mate­ri­al dama­ge cau­sed by the usa­ge or non-usa­ge of the fea­tured infor­ma­ti­on or rather through the use of incor­rect and incom­ple­te infor­ma­ti­on, are not pos­si­ble as a gene­ral princip­le, unless it can be demons­tra­ted that the aut­hor acted wil­ful­ly or was gross­ly negli­gent. All offers are non-bin­ding and wit­hout enga­ge­ment. The aut­hor express­ly reser­ves the right to amend, chan­ge or com­ple­te­ly dele­te eit­her parts of the offer or the com­ple­te offer, or to dis­con­ti­nue the publi­ca­ti­on tem­pora­ri­ly or per­man­ent­ly.

2. Refe­ren­ces and links

In instan­ces of direct or indi­rect refe­ren­ces to exter­nal web pages, here­af­ter also cal­led ‘links’, which are out­si­de the area of respon­si­bi­li­ty of the aut­hor, a lia­bi­li­ty obli­ga­ti­on would come into force only in the event that the aut­hor had been awa­re of the con­tents and it would have been tech­ni­cal­ly pos­si­ble and also rea­son­ab­le for the aut­hor to stop usa­ge, in the case of ille­gal con­tents. The aut­hor her­e­by expli­citly sta­tes that, at the time of set­ting the link, the­re was no evi­dence of ille­gal con­tent on the pages that were to be lin­ked. The aut­hor has no influ­ence on the topi­cal and future crea­ti­on, the con­tents or the aut­hor­ship of the lin­ked pages. For this rea­son, he express­ly distan­ces him­s­elf from all con­tents of all lin­ked pages that were chan­ged after set­ting the link. This decla­ra­ti­on is valid for all links and refe­ren­ces which are set into the lin­ked Inter­net sites, as well as for all third par­ty ent­ries in guest books, dis­cus­sion forums and mai­ling lists estab­lished by the aut­hor. Only the pro­vi­der of the site that is refer­red to will be liable for ille­gal, incor­rect or incom­ple­te con­tents and above all for damages which are due to the use or non-use of the offe­red infor­ma­ti­on, and not the orga­niser, who merely refers to the respec­tive publi­ca­ti­ons via the links.

3. Copy­right law and trade­mark law

In all publi­ca­ti­ons, the aut­hor stri­ves to obser­ve the copy­right of the gra­phics, audio and video clips and texts used, to use gra­phic art, audio and video clips and texts crea­ted by him­s­elf, or to resort to licen­se-free gra­phic art, audio and video clips and texts. All pro­tec­ted tra­de and brand marks of third par­ties that appe­ar in the Inter­net con­tent and, depen­ding on the case, are sub­ject in full to the terms of the rele­vant copy­right law and the right of ownership as app­lied to the regis­te­red owner in each case. The mere men­ti­on of such trade­marks shall not jus­ti­fy the con­clu­si­on that the­se trade­marks are not pro­tec­ted by the rights of third par­ties! The copy­right for published mate­ri­al crea­ted by the aut­hor remains the pro­per­ty of the aut­hor of the pages. Any repro­duc­tion or use of such gra­phics, audio docu­ments, video sequen­ces and texts in other elec­tro­nic or prin­ted publi­ca­ti­ons is not per­mis­si­ble wit­hout the express per­mis­si­on of the aut­hor.
