Liability claims against IU International University of Applied Sciences relating to material or non-material damage caused by the use or non-use of the information provided or by the use of incorrect or incomplete information are excluded as a matter of principle, insofar as there is no demonstrable fault of an intentional or grossly negligent nature on the part of the IU International University of Applied Sciences. All quotations shall be subject to alteration and non-binding. IU International University of Applied Sciences expressly reserves the right to change, supplement, delete or temporarily or permanently cease publication of parts of the pages or the entire website without prior notice.

IU International University of Applied Sciences would like to draw attention to the fact that the information provided on its website is for non-binding information purposes only and does not constitute legal advice in the strict sense. The contents provided on their website – especially the legal articles – are researched with the utmost care. Nevertheless, IU International University of Applied Sciences cannot accept any liability for the correctness, completeness and topicality of the information provided.

In this respect, all information offered is without guarantee of correctness and completeness.

In its judgement of 12 May 1998, the Hamburg Regional Court ruled that the inclusion of links also leads to the establishment of co-responsibility of the material offered via these links. According to the Local Court, this can only be prevented by explicitly distancing oneself from this content.
IU International University of Applied Sciences has placed links on its web pages. IU International University of Applied Sciences is not responsible for any contents linked or referred to from its pages – unless it possesses full knowledge of illegal contents and would be able to prevent the visitors of its site from viewing those pages.

IU International University of Applied Sciences, therefore, expressly declares that there was no illegal content on the linked pages at the time the links were created. IU International University of Applied Sciences has no influence on the current and future design and content of the linked pages. Therefore, IU International University of Applied Sciences hereby expressly dissociates itself from all contents of all linked pages that were changed after the link was set. This statement applies to all links and references within IU International University of Applied Sciences' own website as well as to entries made by third parties in guest books, discussion forums and mailing lists set up by IU International University of Applied Sciences.

Liability for illegal, incorrect or incomplete content and, in particular, for damage arising from the use or non-use of such information offered lies solely with the provider of the page to which reference is made, and not with the person who merely refers to the respective publication via links.

IU International University of Applied Sciences endeavours to observe the copyrights of the graphics, sound documents, video sequences and texts used in all publications, to use objects created by itself or to make use of licence-free graphics, sound documents, video sequences and texts. All trademarks and brand names mentioned within the online services, which may be protected by third parties, are subject without restriction to the provisions of the respectively applicable trademark law and the property rights of the respective registered owners. The mere fact of being mentioned should not permit the assumption that the trademarks are not protected by third-party rights! The copyright for published objects created or commissioned by IU International University of Applied Sciences itself remains solely with IU International University of Applied Sciences and the commissioned companies. Any duplication or use of objects such as diagrams, sounds or texts in other electronic or printed publications is not permitted without IU International University of Applied Science's and the respective companies' agreement.
