Limitation of liability

As a service provider, the Site's publisher is responsible for its own content in accordance with applicable law. However, it is not obliged to monitor transmitted or stored third-party information, or to investigate circumstances indicating unlawful activity.

Responsibility for the content of linked pages lies exclusively with their operator. Linked pages were checked for possible legal infringements at the time of linking; no unlawful content was identifiable at that time. Continuous monitoring of linked pages' content, absent concrete evidence of an infringement, cannot be required. Upon becoming aware of such infringements, the relevant links will be removed promptly.

The publisher may furthermore not be held liable for:

  • Decisions taken by the user on the basis of the information or prices provided by the Site, without prior consultation of a qualified professional;
