Terms and conditions / disclaimer

1. This website shall be used in accordance with the following terms and conditions. Upon accessing this website, these terms and conditions are agreed as binding between the user and the service provider. Where special terms for specific instances of use of this website deviate from the following terms and conditions, express reference to this fact will be made at the appropriate place in the website. These special terms and conditions will then apply in such specific instances in supplement to these terms and conditions. This website contains data and information of all sorts that are protected by trademark and/or copyright law for the benefit of the service provider and/or third parties. It is therefore impermissible to download, reproduce or distribute the website, either in whole or in part. Reproduction for the purpose of browsing, provided this is not for commercial purposes, and permanent duplication for personal, non-commercial use are permitted.

2. It is permitted to place a link on this website provided it is only for cross-referencing purposes. The service provider reserves the right to retract permission. Framing of this website is not permitted.

3. The service provider accepts liability for the content of its website in accordance with the provisions of law. No liability is assumed for the correctness or completeness of information found on the website. References and links to third-party websites do not mean that the service provider endorses the content of the reference or link. The content does not establish any responsibility on the part of the service provider for the data and information which they may contain. The service provider has no influence over the linked content. The service provider is therefore not liable for illegal, incorrect or incomplete content, or for damage caused by the use of linked content.

4. Use of the internet is at the user's own risk. In particular, the service provider is not liable for internet outages caused by technical problems or for any inability to access the internet. If the contractual partner is a legal entity under public law or a special fund under public law, the place of jurisdiction is the service provider's registered offices. German law shall apply, excluding the United Nations Convention on Contracts for the International Sale of Goods.

5. By agreeing to these terms and conditions, the user declares his/her agreement that the service provider is entitled to store the complete IP address of the client accessing the website for a period of 1 (one) year.

6. The service provider reserves the right to alter these terms and conditions from time to time and to adapt them to technical and legal developments. The user will be separately notified of any such change. If any provisions in these terms and conditions are invalid, the validity of the remaining provisions remains thereby unaffected.
