It is used exclusively for statistical purposes. It is neither passed on to third parties for commercial nor non-commercial purposes.

External Links
This website contains links to third parties’ websites (“external links”). These websites are subject to the liability of their respective operators.

The provider has no influence whatsoever on the current and future design and contents of the linked pages. The use of external links does not mean that the provider behind the reference or link makes the contents his own.
