1. Limitation of Liability
The content of this website is thoroughly researched. However, the provider assumes no liability for the accuracy, completeness and relevance of the information provided. Use of website content is at the risk of the user. By-lined articles reflect the author’s opinion and not necessarily the provider’s opinion. The use of this website does not constitute a contractual relationship between the user and the provider.
2. External links
This website has links to external websites. Liability for these third party websites is with the website operators. When programming the link, the provider checked the content of the third party website to ascertain whether it was in violation of any laws. No violations of laws were discovered at that time. The provider does not have any influence whatsoever on the current and future layout, content or authorship of the linked sites. The provision of external links does not constitute the provider’s adoption of the content of the linked websites as its own. It would not be reasonable to expect the provider to implement systematic checks on these external links unless specific evidence of statutory violations exists. If the provider becomes aware of such links violating laws it will delete them immediately.

The provider explicitly states that online data transfers (e.g. via e-mail) are security vulnerable and cannot be fully protected against third party access.
We request that the contact details provided in the legal notice are not used for commercial advertising unless the provider has obtained our prior consent or is a business associate of ours. The provider and all persons mentioned on this website herewith discount any commercial use or circulation of our data.
4. Special terms of use
If special terms of use for this website deviate from provisions 1–3, explicit reference is made to this at the appropriate point. In this case, the relevant special terms and conditions of use apply.
