Liability for content
The content of our web pages has been created with great care. However, we are unable to assume liability for the completeness, accuracy and topicality of the content. Pursuant to section 7 (1) German Telemedia Act (TMG), as the service provider we are responsible for our own con-tent in accordance with general legislation. However, pursuant to sections 8-10 TMG, as a service provider we are not obligated to monitor transmitted or saved third party information, nor to research this information in circumstances that suggest unlawful activity. Obligations to remove and block the use of information in accordance with general legislation remain unaffected by the foregoing. Liability in this regard, however, is first assumed from the time knowledge of a specific infringement is obtained. We will remove the affected content immediately upon being notified of a copyright infringement.
Liabilty for Links
Our website contains links to external third party websites and we have no influence over the content of these websites. We are therefore unable to assume any liability for this third party content. The respective provider or operator of these websites is always responsible for the content of the linked web pages. The linked web pages were inspected for any legal violations at the time the links were created. No illegal content was apparent at the time that the links were created. However, it is not reasonable for us to permanently monitor linked web pages without specific indication of an infringement. We will remove such links immediately upon being notified of an infringement.
