The web site of the Julius Maximilian University of Würzburg includes information made available by cross references (“links”) to other sites, which are marked as follows: (Link-New-Window) [or:  Example link to Google.].

With the cross reference, the Julius Maximilian University of Würzburg only provides access to this content (Sec. 9 Telemediengesetz (Telemedia Act)). The University is not responsible for these “foreign” contents as it does not initiate the transmission of the information, select the receiver of the transmission or select or modify the information contained in the transmission.

Due to the call-up and link method used, there is not even an automatic, intermediate and transient storage of this “foreign information” by the Julius Maximilian University of Würzburg, thus the Julius Maximilian University of Würzburg assumes no liability for these external contents.

When a link is first created to such internet content, however, Julius Maximilian University of Würzburg does verify whether that foreign content may result in possible civil or criminal legal liability.
