Risky disclaimer in the legal notice
The disclaimer in the imprint "Content of the online offer: The author assumes no liability for the topicality, correctness, completeness or quality of the information provided." is inadmissible and liable to a warning.
This was decided by the Arnsberg Regional Court. This sentence contradicts the product descriptions of the individual items on offer and the quality information contained therein. The exclusion of liability could also contradict a guarantee declaration. VOELKER has therefore already recommended that disclaimers and copyright notices in the legal notice - apart from special situations - should be avoided altogether.
