The author has no influence whatsoever on the current and future design, content or authorship of the linked pages. The author therefore expressly distances himself from all contents of all linked pages that have been changed since the link was created. This statement applies to all links and references set within the author's own website as well as to third-party entries in guest books, discussion forums, link directories, mailing lists and in all other forms of databases set up by the author to which external write access is possible. For illegal, incorrect or incomplete contents and in particular for damages arising from the use or non-use of such information, only the provider of the page to which reference was made is liable, not the party who merely refers to the respective publication via links.
