PCI Augsburg GmbH, as content provider according to Section 8, Subsection 1, German Federal Act on the Utilization of Teleservices (Teleservices Act), is legally responsible for the "own content" that she makes available for use. Although all content is examined meticulously and updated continuously, there can be no guarantee of its completeness, accuracy and topicality. PCI Augsburg GmbH is therefore not liable for damage or loss arising in connection with the use of such content. Own content is to be distinguished from LINKS to the content made available by other providers. PCI Augsburg GmbH makes "third-party content" available for use by means of links marked as such [EXTERNAL]. By providing such links, PCI Augsburg GmbH enables access to use of such content (Section 9, Teleservices Act). PCI Augsburg GmbH shall not be responsible for such "third-party" contents since she has neither initiated the transmission, selected the addressees of the transmitted information, nor selected or modified the transmitted information. Due to the selected invocation and linking method involved, PCI Augsburg GmbH shall not be responsible for automatic, intermediate storage for a limited period. Accordingly, responsibility for such third-party information does not devolve on PCI Augsburg GmbH.

"Links", however, are always references to "living" (dynamic) Internet sites of third parties. When the link was first set up PCI Augsburg GmbH examined the external content to establish whether it might possibly trigger civil or criminal law proceedings. However, she is not obliged to constantly check the content to which they refer in their own websites for changes which could provide new grounds for liability. Only when she establishes, or is informed by others, that a specific product or service to which she has provided a link triggers liability under civil or criminal law will she remove the reference to this product or service, provided that this is technically possible and reasonable. The technical feasibility and reasonableness are not influenced by the fact that even after access from the PCI Augsburg GmbH homepage has been prohibited, the illegal or punishable material can be accessed from other servers.
