Legal information

Liability for contents

The Georg-August-Universität Göttingen makes every effort to ensure that the information provided here is correct and up-to-date. The content of the pages has been compiled with the utmost care, but errors and ambiguities cannot be completely ruled out. The Georg-August-Universität Göttingen therefore accepts no liability for the topicality, accuracy, completeness or quality of the information provided.

The details of the facilities, properties and images are based on the information provided to us and have been created directly by the facilities listed. We cannot assume any guarantee or liability for their completeness and accuracy.

In particular, as a service provider we are not obliged to monitor transmitted or stored third-party information or to investigate circumstances that indicate illegal activity. As soon as we become aware of any such infringements, we will remove the content in question immediately.

The SUB Göttingen is not liable for material or immaterial damage caused directly or indirectly by the use or non-use of the information provided or by the use of incorrect or incomplete information, unless it can be proven that the SUB Göttingen acted with intent or gross negligence.

Parts of the pages or the complete publication including all offers and information might be extended, changed or partly or completely deleted by the SUB Göttingen without separate announcement.

Liability for links

Our website contains links to websites of other institutions over whose content we have no influence. The respective provider or operator of the pages is always responsible for the content of the linked pages. The Georg-August-Universität Göttingen therefore explicitly does not identify itself with the content of the linked pages and does not adopt the external content as its own.

The links are cited in the academic sense and are provided for information for study, research and teaching purposes. We have checked the linked pages for possible legal violations at the time of initial linking. At the time of linking, we were not aware of any content that might give rise to civil or criminal liability. However, permanent monitoring of the content of the linked pages is not reasonable without concrete evidence of an infringement.

If the Georg-August-Universität Göttingen discovers or is informed by others that an external offer to which it has provided a link triggers civil or criminal liability, it will remove this link immediately. The Georg-August-Universität Göttingen expressly distances itself from such content.

Statistical data for the website operator

This website uses the open source software Piwik for the statistical analysis of visitor access. Piwik is configured in accordance with data protection regulations and data is stored anonymously. The "session cookies" used for this purpose are text files that are stored on your computer and enable your use of the website to be analyzed. The information generated by the cookie about your use of this website is stored on the GWDG server. The IP address is anonymized immediately after processing and before it is stored. The data collected by Piwik is used in anonymized form to improve our website. IP addresses are stored in Piwik without the last tuple. We know from which network a request came, but not from which computer.

These "session cookies" do not contain any personal data and expire at the end of the session. Technologies such as Java applets or Active-X controls, which make it possible to track the access behavior of users, are not used.

In detail, the following data is stored for each access/retrieval:

  • the first two parts of the IP address
  • Date and time
  • User agent of the software used
  • Page called up/name of the file called up
  • amount of data transferred
  • Message as to whether the access/retrieval was successful.

You can decide here whether a unique web analysis cookie may be stored in your browser to enable the operator of the website to collect and analyze various statistical data.

By using this website, you consent to the processing of data about you by Piwik in the manner and for the purposes set out above. If you wish to opt out, click the following link to place the Piwik deactivation cookie in your browser.
