Disclaimer

1. Content of this website

The author offers no guarantee of the topicality, correctness, completeness or quality of the information supplied at this website. Any liability claims against the author based on damages of a material or intangible nature that result from the use or non-use of the information provided here, or from the use of erroneous or incomplete information, are fundamentally excluded, provided the author cannot be shown to have supplied faulty data out of gross negligence or with deliberate intent to deceive.
All offers and items of information supplied are subject to change without notice and do not imply any binding commitment. The author expressly reserves the right to change, supplement or delete parts of these pages or the entire website, or to cease publication either temporarily or permanently.


2. Links to other websites

In the case of direct or indirect links (hyperlinks) to other websites for which no responsibility attaches to the author, the author would be subject to a liability obligation only in a case where he had knowledge of the content of the said site and where it would have been technically possible, and could have been reasonably expected, that in case such content should be in violation of the law access to it should have been prevented.
The author hereby expressly declares that at the time when the links were set up no illegal content was detectable on the pages to which the links point. The author has no kind of influence on the current or future design, content or copyright of the said pages. Therefore he expressly distances himself herewith from any content of the pages to which the links point which may have been changed subsequently to the setting up of the links. This assertion applies to all links and pointers set up in the author's own website, as well as to third-party entries in guest books, discussion forums, catalogues of links, mailing lists and all other forms of database that have been set up by the author and to which third parties have writing privileges. In case any illegal, erroneous or incomplete information should be supplied as a result, and especially in case of damages occurring that result from the use or non-use of the information supplied in such a way, liability shall attach exclusively to the originator of the website to which the links point, not to the party who merely provides a pointer to information published elsewhere.


3. Copyright and labelling law

In all the data published here the author endeavours to have regard to copyright rights in respect of the images, graphics, tone documents, video sequences and texts used, to make use of images, graphics, tone documents, video sequences and texts created by himself or to have recourse to images, graphics, tone documents, video sequences and texts not subject to licence.
All brands and trademarks mentioned on this website which may be protected by third party copyright shall be subject without restriction to the stipulations of the labelling laws that apply in the given case, and to the copyright ownership of the registered copyright holder. The mere mention of a trademark must not be taken as implying the conclusion that such trademarks are not protected by the rights of third parties!
The copyright in respect of objects published here that have been created by the author himself rests exclusively with the author of these web pages. Without the express consent of the author, the reproduction or use of such graphics, tone documents, video sequences and texts in other electronic or printed publications is not permitted.


4. Data protection

In so far as this website offers the possibility of entering personal or business data (e-mail addresses, names and addresses etc.), such data is surrendered by the user on an exclusively voluntary basis. So far as is possible in technical terms and as may be reasonably expected, users have the facility of resorting to and paying for all the services offered here even without supplying such data, or through the provision of anonymous data or use of a pseudonym. The use by third parties of contact data (such as postal addresses, telephone and fax numbers and e-mail addresses) supplied under the heading of publishing details, or of other similar data, for the purpose of sending information that has not been explicitly requested is not permitted. In case of violation of this prohibition, the author expressly reserves the right to take legal action against the senders of such so-called 'spam' e-mails.


5. Legal effectiveness of this exclusion of liability

This exclusion of liability is to be regarded as an integral part of the website that carries a link to this page. In so far as parts or individual formulations of this text should fail to conform, cease to conform or conform only in part to the currently applicable legal situation, the content and the validity of the other parts of the document shall remain unaffected thereby.
