A liability for direct or indirect references or links to other websites ("links") which are not within the author's responsibility will only occur if the author is aware of the contents and would be technically able and could reasonably be expected to prevent the use in case of unlawful contents. The author hereby expressly declares that at the time the link was set up, no unlawful contents were noticeable on the linked websites.
