In our position as service providers we are, according to section 7, § 1 Telemedia Act (TMG) responsible for contents on these pages according to the general laws.
However, according to sections 8–10 Tele­media Act (TMG), we – in our position as service providers – are neither bound by law to monitor transmitted or saved third-party information nor to undertake any efforts in order to investigate whether this may have constituted an unlawful act.
Any legal obligations as to the removal or the prevention of the use of information according to general laws shall remain unaffected by the above.

Liability for Links

In the case of direct or indirect links to third-party web sites (‘hyperlinks’) which are outside the realm of the owner’s responsibility, a liability obligation will come into effect only and exclusively in the case that the author is aware of the contents and under the condition that the author has the necessary technical tools at no excessive effort to prevent the use of the contents in question in the case they are illegal.
The author hereby expressly declares that at the very moment when the links were set, there appeared to be no illegal contents on the linked sites.
