Liability for content

As a service provider, I am responsible for my own content on these pages under § 7 (1) DDG and general law. Under §§ 8 to 10 DDG, however, I am not obliged to monitor third-party information that is transmitted or stored, or to look for circumstances that indicate illegal activity.

Obligations to remove or block the use of information under general law remain unaffected. Liability in this respect is only possible from the moment I become aware of a specific infringement. As soon as I learn of such an infringement, I will remove the content without delay.

This website contains links to external third-party websites whose content I cannot influence. I therefore cannot accept any liability for that content. The provider or operator of a linked page is always responsible for its content.
