1. Content of the Online Offer

The author assumes no liability for the timeliness, correctness, completeness, or quality of the information provided. Liability claims against the author that relate to material or immaterial damages caused by the use or non-use of the presented information or by the use of incorrect or incomplete information are fundamentally excluded, unless the author can be proven to have acted with willful intent or gross negligence. All offers are non-binding and without obligation. The author expressly reserves the right to change, supplement, delete, or temporarily or permanently discontinue parts of the pages or the entire offer without separate notice.

2. References and Links

In the case of direct or indirect references to external websites (“links”) that lie outside the author’s responsibility, a liability obligation would only come into force if the author had knowledge of the content and it was technically possible and reasonable for him to prevent use in the case of illegal content. The author therefore expressly declares that at the time of setting the link, the corresponding linked pages were free of illegal content. The author has no influence on the current and future design and content of the linked/associated pages. Therefore, he expressly distances himself from all contents of all linked/associated 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, and mailing lists set up by the author. The provider of the page to which reference was made is solely liable for illegal, incorrect, or incomplete content and in particular for damages arising from the use or non-use of such information presented, not the one who merely refers to the respective publication via links.

3. Copyright and Trademark Law

The author endeavors to observe the copyrights of the graphics, sound documents, video sequences, and texts used in all publications, to use graphics, sound documents, video sequences, and texts created by himself, or to resort to license-free graphics, sound documents, video sequences, and texts. All brand names and trademarks mentioned within the internet offering and, if applicable, protected by third parties, are subject without restriction to the provisions of the respectively valid trademark law and the rights of ownership of the respective registered owners. The mere mention alone does not lead to the conclusion that trademarks are not protected by third-party rights! The copyright for published objects created by the author himself remains solely with the author of the pages. Reproduction 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.
