DISCLAIMER
1. Content of the Online Offer The author assumes no liability for the topicality, correctness, completeness, or quality of the information provided. Liability claims against the author, which relate to material or immaterial damage caused by the use or non-use of the information presented or by the use of incorrect or incomplete information, are generally excluded, provided that there is no demonstrably intentional or grossly negligent fault on the part of the author. All offers are non-binding and subject to change. The author expressly reserves the right to change, supplement, delete parts of the pages or the entire offer without separate announcement, or to cease publication temporarily or permanently.
2. References and Links In the case of direct or indirect references to external websites (“Links”) that lie outside the author’s area of responsibility, a liability obligation would only come into effect if the author was aware of the content and it would be technically possible and reasonable for him to prevent use in the case of illegal content. The author therefore expressly declares that at the time the links were set, the corresponding linked pages were free of illegal content. The author has no influence on the current and future design and on the content of the linked/connected pages. Therefore, he hereby expressly distances himself from all contents of all linked/connected pages that were changed after the link was set. This statement applies to all links and references set within the author’s own internet offer, as well as to third-party entries in guest books, discussion forums, and mailing lists set up by the author. For illegal, incorrect, or incomplete content and especially for damage resulting from the use or non-use of such information presented, only the provider of the page to which reference was made is liable, not the person who merely refers to the respective publication via links.
3. Copyright and Trademark Law The author endeavors to observe the copyrights of the graphics, sound documents, video sequences, and texts used in all publications, to use graphics, sound documents, video sequences, and texts created by himself, or to fall back on license-free graphics, sound documents, video sequences, and texts. All brand names and trademarks mentioned within the internet offer and possibly protected by third parties are subject without restriction to the provisions of the respectively valid trademark law and the ownership rights of the respective registered owners. The mere mention does not lead to the conclusion that trademarks are not protected by third-party rights! The copyright for published objects created by the author himself remains solely with the author of the pages. Any duplication or use of such graphics, sound documents, video sequences, and texts in other electronic or printed publications is not permitted without the express consent of the author.
4. Legal Validity of this Disclaimer This disclaimer is to be regarded as part of the internet offer from which reference was made to this page. If parts or individual formulations of this text do not, no longer, or not completely correspond to the current legal situation, the remaining parts of the document remain unaffected in their content and validity.
Privacy Policy Data Protection The operators of these pages take the protection of your personal data very seriously. We treat your personal data confidentially and in accordance with the statutory data protection regulations and this privacy policy. The use of our website is generally possible without providing personal data. Insofar as personal data (e.g. name, address, or email addresses) are collected on our pages, this is always done on a voluntary basis, as far as possible. This data will not be passed on to third parties without your express consent. We point out that data transmission over the Internet (e.g. when communicating by email) can have security gaps. Complete protection of the data from access by third parties is not possible.
Cookies The internet pages sometimes use so-called cookies. Cookies do not cause any damage to your computer and do not contain viruses. Cookies serve to make our offer more user-friendly, effective, and secure. Cookies are small text files that are stored on your computer and saved by your browser. Most of the cookies we use are so-called “session cookies”. They are automatically deleted after the end of your visit. Other cookies remain stored on your end device until you delete them. These cookies enable us to recognize your browser on your next visit. You can set your browser so that you are informed about the setting of cookies. If cookies are deactivated, the functionality of this website may be limited.

These are: Browser type/browser version Operating system used Referrer URL Host name of the accessing computer Time of the server request This data cannot be assigned to specific people. A merging of this data with other data sources is not carried out.
Privacy Policy for the Use of YouTube Our website uses plugins from the YouTube site operated by Google. The operator of the pages is YouTube, LLC, 901 Cherry Ave., San Bruno, CA 94066, USA. If you visit one of our pages equipped with a YouTube plugin, a connection to the YouTube servers is established. The YouTube server is informed about which of our pages you have visited. If you are logged into your YouTube account, you enable YouTube to assign your surfing behavior directly to your personal profile. You can prevent this by logging out of your YouTube account. Further information on the handling of user data can be found in YouTube’s privacy policy at https://www.google.de/intl/de/policies/privacy
Data Protection Data Protection and Declaration of Consent 1. Collection, Processing, and Use of Personal Data 1.1. In principle, you can visit our websites without us collecting personal data from you. Insofar as personal data (e.g. name, address, or email addresses) are collected on our pages, this is always done on a voluntary basis, as far as possible. This data will not be passed on to third parties without your express consent. 1.2. We point out that data transmission over the Internet (e.g. when communicating by email) can have security gaps. Complete protection of the data from access by third parties is not possible. 1.3. We collect and store data about every access to the offer (so-called server log files). These are: date and time of the server request, file name, browser type and version, operating system of your computer, referrer URL (the page from which you visit the provider), IP address and provider. This data cannot be assigned to specific people. A merging of this data with other data sources is not carried out. We reserve the right to check this data retrospectively if we become aware of specific indications of illegal use. This data is only used for statistical evaluations for the purpose of operation, security, and optimization of the offer. However, we reserve the right to check the log data retrospectively if there is a justified suspicion of illegal use based on concrete evidence.
2. Disclosure of Personal Data No data will be passed on, except in cases permitted by law.
Web Analysis Service This website uses Google Analytics, a web analysis service of Google Inc. (“Google”). Google Analytics uses so-called “cookies”, text files that are stored on your computer and that enable an analysis of your use of the website. The information generated by the cookie about your use of this website is usually transmitted to a Google server in the USA and stored there. However, if IP anonymization is activated on this website, your IP address will be shortened by Google beforehand within member states of the European Union or in other contracting states of the Agreement on the European Economic Area. The full IP address will only be transmitted to a Google server in the USA and shortened there in exceptional cases. On behalf of the operator of this website, Google will use this information to evaluate your use of the website, to compile reports on website activity, and to provide other services related to website use and internet use to the website operator. The IP address transmitted by your browser as part of Google Analytics will not be merged with other Google data. You can prevent the storage of cookies by setting your browser software accordingly; however, we would like to point out that in this case you may not be able to use all functions of this website to their full extent. You can also prevent Google from collecting the data generated by the cookie and relating to your use of the website (including your IP address) and from processing this data by Google by downloading and installing the browser plug-in available under the following link: http://tools.google.com/dlpage/gaoptout?hl=de It is pointed out that this website uses Google Analytics with the extension “_anonymizeIp()” and therefore IP addresses are only processed further in a shortened form to exclude direct personal reference.
Social Plugins Facebook This offer uses social plugins (“Plugins”) from the social network facebook.com, which is operated by Facebook Inc., 1601 S. California Ave, Palo Alto, CA 94304, USA (“Facebook”). An overview of the Facebook social plugins can be viewed here: https://developers.facebook.com/docs/plugins/ When a user calls up a page of this offer that contains such a plugin, their browser establishes a direct connection with the Facebook servers. The content of the plugin is transmitted by Facebook directly to your browser. The provider therefore has no influence on the extent of the data that Facebook collects with the help of this plugin and therefore informs users according to his level of knowledge. By integrating the plugins, Facebook receives the information that a user has called up the corresponding page of the offer. If the user is logged into Facebook, Facebook can assign the visit to the user’s Facebook account. If users interact with the plugins, for example, by pressing the Like button or submitting a comment, the corresponding information is transmitted directly from your browser to Facebook and stored there. Even if a user is not a member of Facebook, there is still the possibility that Facebook will find out and store their IP address. According to Facebook, only an anonymized IP address is stored in Germany. The purpose and scope of the data collection and the further processing and use of the data by Facebook as well as the related rights and setting options can be found in Facebook’s data protection notices: https://de-de.facebook.com/legal/FB_Work_Privacy. To prevent Facebook from assigning your visit to our pages to your Facebook user account, please log out of your Facebook user account before visiting our page. It is also possible to block Facebook social plugins with add-ons for your browser, for example with the “Facebook Blocker”. YouTube Our website uses plugins from the YouTube site operated by Google. The operator of the pages is YouTube, LLC, 901 Cherry Ave., San Bruno, CA 94066, USA. If you visit one of our pages equipped with a YouTube plugin, a connection to the YouTube servers is established. The YouTube server is informed about which of our pages you have visited. If you are logged into your YouTube account, you enable YouTube to assign your surfing behavior directly to your personal profile. You can prevent this by logging out of your YouTube account.
