Disclaimer – Legal Information

§ 1 Disclaimer regarding content

The free and publicly accessible content on this website has been created with the greatest possible care. However, the provider of this website assumes no liability for the accuracy, completeness, or current validity of the free and publicly accessible journalistic information and advice.

Articles marked with the name of an author reflect the opinion of the respective author and do not necessarily represent the opinion of the provider.

Merely accessing the free and publicly accessible content does not establish any contractual relationship between the user and the provider. Therefore, no legal obligation exists between the parties.

§ 2 External Links

This website contains links to third-party websites (“external links”). These websites are subject to the liability of their respective operators.

When the external links were first created, the provider checked the linked content for possible legal violations. At that time, no legal infringements were apparent.

The provider has no influence on the current or future design and content of the linked websites. The inclusion of external links does not mean that the provider adopts the content behind the links as its own.

Continuous monitoring of external links is not reasonable without specific evidence of legal violations. If any legal infringements become known, such external links will be removed immediately.

§ 3 Copyright and Related Rights

The content published on this website is subject to German copyright and related rights law.

Any use not permitted under German copyright and related rights law requires the prior written consent of the provider or the respective copyright holder.

This applies in particular to reproduction, editing, translation, storage, processing, or reproduction of content in databases or other electronic media and systems.

Third-party content and rights are identified as such.

Unauthorized reproduction or distribution of individual contents or complete pages is prohibited and punishable by law.

Copies and downloads for personal, private, and non-commercial use are permitted.

The presentation of this website in external frames is only permitted with written approval.

§ 4 Special Terms of Use

If special conditions for individual uses of this website differ from the above sections, this will be explicitly indicated at the relevant location.

In such cases, the respective special terms of use shall apply.
