  3. For any commercial use of the content on this website (e.g. repurposing or reprinting data and content for cash sales), please obtain written permission from the HIIK.

LIABILITY FOR CONTENT

  1. Opinions expressed on HIIK blogs are solely those of the author or commenter, not of HIIK, which takes no institutional positions.
  2. Although the information contained on this website is assembled with utmost care, errors and ambiguities cannot be completely ruled out. Therefore HIIK cannot be held liable for the timeliness, correctness, completeness or quality of the information provided.
  3. HIIK cannot be held liable for any material or intellectual damages incurred directly or indirectly through the use or disuse of the information as well as the use of incorrect or incomplete information presented on its website or the publications, provided that there is no demonstrably intentional or grossly negligent fault. The same applies to free data and information available for download.
  4. The HIIK reserves the right to modify or remove parts of its website content or the whole content without prior notification.

LIABILITY FOR LINKS

Our website contains links to external websites of third parties. As these websites are beyond our control, we cannot assume any responsibility for their content and privacy policy. Legal liability lies exclusively with the operators of these external sites. The linked sites were checked at the time of linking for possible legal violations. Illegal contents were not visible at the time of linking. A permanent control of the linked pages is unreasonable without concrete evidence of a violation. Once violations have become known, we will immediately remove such links and explicitly distance ourselves from them.

  4. Should the content on this website not be created by the operator, the copyright of third parties must be respected. In particular contents of third parties are marked as such.
