Disclaimer

References and links

For direct or indirect references to third parties' websites ("links") which lie outside FIZ GmbH's area of responsibility, a liability commitment shall only be valid if FIZ GmbH has taken notice of the contents and it would have been technically possible and could have been expected that FIZ GmbH could hinder use if illegal contents came up.

Therefore FIZ GmbH declares especially that at the point in time when the links were set, the corresponding linked pages were free of illegal contents. FIZ GmbH has no influence whatsoever on the current and future design and the contents of the linked/connected pages. Therefore FIZ GmbH herewith distances itself explicitly from all contents of linked/connected pages which are changed after the link has been established. This statement applies to all links and connections set within the FIZ GmbH's own internet offer and for third parties' entries in guest books, discussion groups and mailing lists established by authors. Solely the supplier of the page referred to and not somebody who merely refers to the respective publication via links is liable for damages resulting from the use or failure to use information presented in this manner.

Copyright and brand law

All brands named within the internet offer and where applicable protected brand and trademarks are subject without any restrictions to the corresponding current trademark law and the ownership rights of the respective official owners. Mere naming of the products does not lead to the conclusion that brand names are not protected by third parties' rights! The copyright for published objects produced by FIZ GmbH themselves remains with FIZ GmbH. Reproduction or use of such graphics, sound documents, video sequences and texts in other electronic or printed publications shall only be allowed with FIZ GmbH's express written permission.

Legal effectiveness of this exclusion of liability

This exclusion of liability is to be seen as part of the internet offer from which this page was referred to. In as far as parts or individual phrasing of this text do not or no longer absolutely meet the current legal stipulations, the remaining parts of this document remain non-affected in their contents and validity.
