Liability note / Disclaimer:

Being content provider, the Goethe-University is responsible for own contents that are made available for public use according to general laws. This legal notice applies to information supplied by the Central Administration Board and the central facilities of the Goethe-University in the WWW, that are endorsed by “© Goethe-Universität” and are accessible via the URL www.uni-frankfurt.de.

The Goethe-University takes no responsibility for the completeness of these contents or their appropriateness for a certain purpose if use. The usage of contents provided by the webpages is the sole risk of the users.


A note on difficulties with external links

One has to distinguish between these own contents and links to contents provided by other facilities of the Goethe-University or by other content providers. Links are potentially dynamic means of reference. The editorial office for WWW matters of the Goethe-University verified each first linkage to third-party contents for whether they possibly give rise to a responsibility by civil law or by criminal law. The Goethe-University does not constantly verifies linked contents for modifications that may cause responsibility. If the Goethe-University notices or is made aware of a particular content that is linked from one of its webpages and gives rise to a responsibility by civil law or by criminal law, then this link is deleted.

Despite of a thorough contentwise control, no liability is assumed for contents of external links. The content of linked webpages lies exclusively within the responsibility of the operators of these webpages. The Land court of Hamburg decided by a verdict from May 12, 1998 “Liability of links”, that by linking alone the linking party adopts a co-responsibility of the content of the linked webpages and thereby can hold liability for them. Co-responsibility can be prevented by explicitly distance oneself from all contents. Given this background, the Goethe-University hereby precautionary distances itself from all contents of webpages that are linked from its webpages. The Goethe-University neither has a bearing on design on content of linked webpages, nor does it adopt linked contents as its own. This declaration applies to all links and collections of links that currently exist or will exist in future.
