Disclaimer – legal notes

1. Warning about content

The free and freely accessible contents of this website were created with the greatest possible care. However, the provider of this website assumes no responsibility for the accuracy and timeliness of the provided free and freely accessible journalistic guides and news. Contributions marked by name reflect the opinion of the respective author and not always the opinion of the provider. Just by accessing the free-of-charge and freely accessible content, no contractual relationship between the user and the provider is concluded, insofar as it lacks the legal binding will of the provider.

2. External links

This website contains links to third party websites (“external links”). These websites are the responsibility of the respective operators. The provider has checked the external content on the initial linking of external links to determine whether any legal violations exist. At that time, no violations were evident. The provider has no influence on the current and future design and content of the linked pages. The setting of external links does not mean that the provider accepts the content behind the link or reference. A constant control of external links is not reasonable for the provider without concrete evidence of legal violations. However, in the event of legal violations, such external links will be deleted immediately.

Any use not permitted by German copyright and ancillary copyright law requires the prior written consent of the provider or respective copyright holder.

Contents and rights of third parties are marked as such. The unauthorized duplication or passing on of individual contents or complete pages is not permitted and punishable.
