Liability Notice

All information contained on this website has been prepared with great care. However, we do not guarantee that the contents of our own web pages are correct, complete and up-to-date at all times.

Service providers are responsible for their own content on the pages they offer in accordance with general legislation pursuant to Section 7 (1) of the German Telemedia Act (TMG). However, according to §§ 8, 9 and 10 TMG, service providers are not obliged to monitor transmitted or stored third-party information or to investigate circumstances that indicate illegal activity.

Obligations to remove or block the use of information in accordance with general laws remain unaffected by this. However, liability in this regard is only possible from the time of knowledge of a concrete infringement. If we become aware of corresponding infringements, we will remove this content immediately.

Note on the problem of external links
As a content provider, GMDS is responsible for its "own content", which it makes available for use, in accordance with general legislation pursuant to Section 7 (1) of the German Telemedia Act (Telemediengesetz). A distinction must be made between this own content and cross-references ("links") to content provided by other providers. By means of the cross-reference, the GMDS provides "third-party content" for use, which is marked in this way:

Links" are always "living" (dynamic) references. When the link was first created, the GMDS checked the external content to see whether it might give rise to any civil or criminal liability. However, GMDS does not constantly check the content to which it refers in its offer for changes that could give rise to a new responsibility. If it ascertains or is informed by others that a specific offer to which it has provided a link triggers civil or criminal liability, it will remove the reference to this offer.

Should you find any questionable or illegal content on the pages of this website or on pages to which reference is made, the GMDS would be grateful if you would inform us accordingly.

The GMDS will strive to offer the service for retrieval without interruption as far as possible. However, even with all due care, downtimes cannot be ruled out. The GMDS reserves the right to change or discontinue its service at any time. We cannot accept any liability for interruptions or other disruptions caused by files that have not been created without errors or formats that are not structured without errors.
