We endeavour to ensure that the content of our website is always up-to-date, accurate and complete. Nevertheless, errors may still occur. Therefore, we assume no responsibility for the topicality, correctness, completeness or quality of the information provided. Liability claims relating to damages of a material or immaterial nature caused by the use or non-use of the information provided or by the use of incorrect or incomplete information are excluded, unless the error was published with wilful intent or through gross negligence.
All offers are subject to confirmation and non-binding. We expressly reserve the right to change, add to or delete any section of the website, or the entire offer itself without prior notice, or to discontinue the publication temporarily or permanently.
Hamburg Regional Court (LG) decided by judgment dated 12 May 1998 that by providing a direct or indirect link to external websites, co-responsibility may exist for the content of the linked websites. According to the LG, this can only be prevented by expressly disassociating oneself from such content.
This website contains links to third party websites (external links). These websites are the responsibility of the respective operators. When including such external links for the first time, we check the external contents for possible legal violations. At that time, no violations were evident. Therefore, we have no influence on the current and future design and content of the linked websites. Setting external links does not mean that we adopt the content of the link as our own. It is not reasonable to expect us to constantly monitor external links for legal violations without specific indication thereof. If, however, we become aware of legal violations, the offending external links will be deleted immediately.

Reproduction or use of the graphics, audio recordings, video sequences and texts in other electronic or printed publications is not permitted without our express consent.
