Legal notices

1. Content of the website

We take no responsibility for the actuality, accuracy, completeness or quality of information published on this web site.

Liability claims made against the author which relate to loss of goodwill or material damage caused by the usage or non-usage of the featured information, or rather through the use of incorrect and incomplete information, are not possible unless it can be demonstrated that the author acted wilfully or was grossly negligent.
All offers are subject to confirmation and are not binding. The author expressly reserves himself/herself the right to modify, add or remove part or all contents of this website temporarily or permanently without prior warning.

2. References and Links

As regards direct or indirect references to external websites (“hyperlinks”) which are outside the area of responsibility of the author, liability would only be assumed if the author had knowledge of content and if it was technically possible and feasible to prevent their use in case of illegal con- tent.
The author hereby expressly declares that no illegal content was found on the linked pages at the time the links were made. The author has no in uence whatsoever on the current and future design, contents and authorship of the linked / referenced pages. For this reason, the author expressly dissociates himself from the contents of all linked / referenced pages which were changed after the links were rst established. This statement applies to all links and references set up within the author’s own website as well as to external entries in the guest books, discussion forums and mailing lists created by the author. Only the provider of the page to which reference was made shall be liable for illegal, incorrect or incomplete contents and notably for damage resulting from the use of or failure to use such information provided, but not the person who merely refers to the publication in question via links.

3. Copyright law and law on trademarks and related signs

In all publications, the author strives either to observe the copyright of the graphics, audio and video clips and texts used, to use graphic art, audio and video clips and texts created by himself or to resort to license-free graphic art, audio and video clips and texts. All brands and trademarks mentioned as part of the internet offer and, where applicable, all brands and trademarks protected by third parties are subject without restrictions to the regulations of the currently applicable law on trademarks and related signs as well as the rights of ownership by the registered owner. The mere fact that a trademark is mentioned must not lead to the conclusion that trademarks are not protected by third-party rights! The copyright for published items created by the author himself remain solely with the author of the pages. Copying or using such graphics, audio and video clips and texts in other electronic or printed publications is prohibited without the express permission of the author.

4. Data privacy

Provided that the possibility of entering personal or business details (i.e. e-mail addresses, names, addresses) exists within the Internet offer, the disclosure of such data on the part of the user is done on an expressly voluntary basis. Using and paying for all services offered is – in as much as this is technically possible and feasible – also permitted without entering such data and / or anonymously entering data or by using an alias. Third- party use of contact details published as part of the imprint or comparable statements, such as postal addresses, telephone and fax numbers as well as e-mail addresses for the purpose of transmitting information that has not been expressly requested is not permitted. The author expressly reserves the right to take legal action against the senders of socalled spam mails in case of breaches of this prohibition.

5. Cookies

Cookies are text files that are stored automatically when a website is called up locally in the visitor's browser. This website uses cookies to make the offer user-friendly and functional.

Security-related features to protect your privacy are also made possible by the use of cookies. The exclusive purpose is to tailor our offerings to your customer's wishes and to make the site usage as comfortable as possible. With the application of the DSGVO 2018, webmasters are obliged to follow the basic regulation published under https://eu-datenschutz.org/ and to inform their users accordingly about the collection and evaluation of data. The lawfulness of the processing is justified in Chapter 2, Article 6 of the GDPR.

6. Google Analytics

If you have given your consent, Google Analytics, a web analysis service of Google Inc. ("Google") is used on this website. The use includes the "Universal Analytics" operating mode. This makes it possible to assign data, sessions and interactions across multiple devices to a pseudonymous user ID and thus analyze a user's activities across devices. This data protection notice is provided by www.intersoft-consulting.de.

Google Analytics uses "cookies", which are text files placed on your computer, to help the website analyze how users interact with the site. The information generated by the cookie about your use of this website is usually transferred to a Google server in the USA and stored there. However, if IP anonymisation is activated on this website, Google will reduce your IP address within Member States of the European Union or in other states party to the Agreement on the European Economic Area beforehand. Only in exceptional cases will the full IP address be transmitted to a Google server in the USA and shortened there. We would like to point out that on this website Google Analytics has been extended to include IP anonymisation in order to ensure anonymous collection of IP addresses (so-called IP masking). The IP address transmitted by your browser in the context of Google Analytics is not merged with other Google data. For more information on terms of use and data protection, please visit https://www.google.com/analytics/terms/gb.html or https://policies.google.com/?hl=en.
