Despite careful content control we accept no liability for the contents of external links. Responsible for the content of the linked pages are exclusively their operators.
Disclaimer:
1. Content of the online offer
MELIOR assumes no responsibility for the topicality, correctness, completeness or quality of the information provided. Liability claims against MELIOR which refer to damages of a material or immaterial nature, which were caused by the use or disuse of information offered or by the use of faulty and incomplete information are excluded in principle, insofar as there is no demonstrably intentional or grossly negligent fault on the part of MELIOR®.
All offers are subject to change and non-binding. MELIOR® expressly reserves the right to change parts of the pages or the entire offer without separate announcement, to supplement, to delete or to discontinue the publication temporarily or permanently.
2. References and links
For direct or indirect references to external websites (hyperlinks) which lie outside the responsibility of MELIOR®, liability would only apply in cases in which MELIOR has knowledge of the contents and it would be technically possible and reasonable for MELIOR® to prevent the use of illegal content.
MELIOR® hereby expressly declares that no illegal contents were discernible on the pages to be linked at the time of setting the links. MELIOR® has no influence whatsoever on the current and future design, the contents or the authorship of the linked/connected pages. Therefore it herewith expressly dissociates itself from all contents of all linked/connected pages which were changed after the link was set. This statement applies to all links and references set within the own Internet offer as well as to external entries in guest books, discussion forums and mailing lists set up by MELIOR. Liability for illegal, incorrect or incomplete contents and especially for damages resulting from the use or disuse of such offered information lies solely with the provider of the page to which reference was made and not with the one who has merely referred to the publication concerned by means of links.
3. Copyright and trademark law
In all publications MELIOR® strives to respect the copyrights of the used graphics, sound documents, video sequences and texts, to use its own or to resort to licence-free material.
All brand names and trademarks mentioned within the Internet offer and possibly protected by third parties are unrestrictedly subject to the provisions of applicable trademark law and the ownership rights of the respective registered owners.

The copyright for any published material created by MELIOR® itself remains solely with MELIOR® as the author of the pages. Any duplication or use of such graphics, sound documents, video sequences and texts in other electronic or printed publications is not permitted without the express permission of MELIOR®.
