PRISMA European Capacity Platform GmbH (hereinafter referred to as “PRISMA”) acting as a service provider, in accordance to Art. 7 TMG [German Telemedia Act], is only responsible for its own content within the PRISMA internet presence. PRISMA does not have any obligation to monitor or carry out investigations with regard to circumstances indicating any unlawful activity regarding the information transferred or stored by PRISMA.

1. Limitation of Liability

The content of the PRISMA internet presence is created with utmost care and is copyright protected. However, the provider does not guarantee the accuracy, completeness and timeliness of the data and information contained in its PRISMA internet presence. The use of the contents of PRISMA internet presence is at the user’s own risk. PRISMA cannot be held liable for any type of direct or indirect damage, including any loss of profits that might result from you accessing and/or using the PRISMA internet presence. All information and data contained in PRISMA internet presence are subject to alteration and without obligation. PRISMA accepts no responsibility or liability whatsoever for any possible damage caused by viruses to your hardware or other property as a result of your access to PRISMA internet presence or the use of its content, or as a result of downloading information, video or audio files from this site. Furthermore, PRISMA cannot be held liable for cases of damage caused by the actions of third parties, taken on the basis of the data and information contained in PRISMA internet presence.

2. External Links

The PRISMA internet presence contains links to other internet presences/websites (“external links”) on whose content PRISMA does not have any influence. These external links are under the responsibility of the respective operators. PRISMA proofed external links once at the first connection to prevent legal violations. At that time no legal violations were noted. The provider has no influence on the current and future design and content of the external links. The inclusion of external links does not mean that PRISMA adopts the contents of those external links as its own. A permanent control of external links is not reasonable for PRISMA without concrete evidence of violations. With knowledge of legal violations, such external links will be deleted immediately. This also applies to any external link provided indirectly by this PRISMA internet presence for information purposes. PRISMA accepts no liability whatsoever for the content of third-party websites that can be accessed via links from the PRISMA site. Any access to third-party websites is at the sole responsibility of the user.
