Legal notice

1. CONTENT OF THE ONLINE OFFER

The author gives no warranty for the quality of the information provided and that it is up to date, correct and complete. No claims may be made against the author due to material or non-material damage arising from the use or failure to use this information or from the use of erroneous and incomplete information unless the author is proven to have acted with intent or gross negligence.
All offers are subject to change and are non-binding. The author expressly reserves the right to change, supplement or delete parts of the website or the entire website without warning or to close the website temporarily or permanently.

2. REFERENCES AND LINKS

Where direct or indirect links (“hyperlinks”) are made to other websites for which the author has no responsibility, liability would only apply if the author were cognizant of the contents and if it were technically possible for him, and could reasonably be expected of him, to prevent the use of the unlawful content. The author explicitly declares herewith that at the time of creating the links no illegal content was found on the linked sites. The author has no influence whatsoever on the current or future composition, content or authorship of the linked sites. He therefore expressly dissociates himself from all contents of linked sites that were changed after the creation of the link. This statement applies to all links and references embedded within the author’s own website and to entries by third parties on message boards, discussion forums and mailing lists set up by the author and in all other forms of database to which external write access is possible. All liability for illegal, erroneous or incomplete content and in particular for damages arising from the use or non-use of the information supplied in this way rests with the provider of the site to which the link was made and not with the party who merely refers to the publication via a link.

3. COPYRIGHT AND TRADE MARKS

The author endeavours in all publications to respect the copyrights of images, graphics, audio and video clips, and texts; to use images, graphics, audio and video clips, and texts created by himself or to make use of licence-free graphics, audio and video clips, and texts. All brands and trademarks referred to on the website and which are possibly protected by third parties are subject without restriction to the provisions of the applicable trademark legislation and the ownership rights of the respective registered owners. It should not be assumed that simply because a brand is named the trademarks are not protected by the rights of third parties!
The author of this website retains sole copyright for published objects created by himself. The reproduction or use of such graphics, audio and video clips, and texts in other electronic or printed publications is forbidden without the express permission of the author.
