The privacy of persons is protected in all areas of our Webpage. Personal data from our visitors are treated with strict confidentiality. In some areas, we request the entry of personal data from our visitors. This arises particularly for newsletter subscriptions or service areas. In accordance with Section 4 of the TDDSG (German Tele-Service Data Protection Act), subscribing to the newsletter can be done without submitting one’s name or pseudonym and can therefore be done anonymously. This information is needed only for authentication or contact purposes. Our visitors’ personal data are neither passed on to third parties nor are they used for the creation of personal profiles. These data are used only for those purposes desired by the customer. General information, such as calling our Website, time and data are automatically logged by the server. These data are required for evaluating the total access to our page. This data includes statistics, such as the total of visitors and total of calls to the page.

Exemption from liability:

1. Contents of online offer

The company assumes no guarantee for the timeliness, correctness, completeness or quality of the provided information. Claims for liability against the company with reference to material or nonmaterial damages that were caused by the use or nonuse of the offered information or by the use of erroneous and incomplete information are ruled out inasmuch as no provable intentional or grossly negligent fault exists on the part of the company. All offers are subject to alteration and are nonbinding. The company retains the exclusive right to change, amend or delete parts of, pages of or the entire offer without special notification. The company also reserves the right stop the publications of the offer temporarily or permanently.

2. References and links

In the case of indirect links to third-party websites that are outside the realm of responsibility of the company, an obligation of liability would exist only if the company has knowledge of the contents and if it would be possible and reasonable for the company to prevent the use in the case of unlawful content. The company therefore declares explicitly that at the time of setting up the links, the linked pages contain no illegal content. The company has no influence on the current and future design of the pages and no influence on the content of the linked/connected pages. For this reason, the company explicitly distances itself herewith from all content of linked/connected pages that were changed after the links were set up. This specification applies for all links and references within the company’s own internet presence as well as for all third-party entries in guest books, discussion forums and mailing lists set up by the company. The provider of the page to which our page was linked – not the party whose links merely refer to the respective publication - shall be liable for illegal, erroneous or incomplete contents and particularly for damages arising from the use or nonuse of such offered information.

3. Author and identification obligation

The company is obligated to observe the publication copy rights for graphics, sound files, video files and texts, to use graphics, sound files, video files and texts the company itself has created, as well as to resort to license-free graphics, sound files, video files and texts. All trademarks given within the internet presence and, if applicable, all trademarks protected by third parties are subject to the unlimited conditions of the respective valid trademark law and the proprietary rights of the respective registered property. It cannot be concluded that only from its mere mention that trademarks are not protected by third parties! The copyright for publicized objects created by the company itself remains with the page provider. Duplication or use of such graphics, sound files, video files and texts in other electronic or printed publications is not permitted without the explicit consent of the company.

4. Legal effect of the exemption of liability

This exemption of liability is to be observed as part of the Internet presence from which these pages are referred to. Inasmuch as parts or individual formulations of this text do not correspond, no longer correspond, or insufficiently correspond to the valid legal position, the remaining parts of the document remain unaffected with respect to their content and validity.
