However, this does not constitute the granting of a licence or a right-to-use of images, registered brands or logos on the part of Business Broker AG.

The content published on the Business Broker website serves exclusively for information purposes.

5. Links to third parties
Business Broker AG has not reviewed the third-party websites to which there are links in the Business Broker website. These websites are entirely outside the sphere of influence of Business Broker AG, hence no liability is given for the accuracy, completeness and legitimacy of their content and offerings. The creation of links to these sites is done entirely at the user's own risk.
Where an external website operator wishes to incorporate a link to the Business Broker website, permission must be obtained in advance from Business Broker AG.

7. Note on risk
The Business Broker website may contain information about future developments. The future development of investments cannot be predicted based on past value development, i.e. the value of an investment may rise or fall. Value development in the past does therefore not represent a guarantee of future development. The value preservation or even the increase in value of the invested capital cannot be guaranteed, since the value development is subject to fluctuation. Investments in smaller companies in particular, investments that focus on one sector or one region and/or investments that provide for the use of foreign capital are associated with particular risks. The risk of loss of the capital invested and the risk of further liabilities going beyond this loss are the sole responsibility of the individual.
8. Data protection and data security
Access to the Business Broker website can involve specific cookies or web bugs for the purpose of gathering non-personal data about usage. This data may be evaluated by Business Broker AG itself or by commissioned third parties, particularly for statistical purposes.
Personal data that the user has made available to Business Broker AG explicitly and knowingly may be processed by Business Broker AG. By filling in the contact form to request information about the object of a sale, the user gives his or her express permission to Business Broker AG for his data to be forwarded to the owners of the object for information purposes. Business Broker AG assures the user that these personal data are forwarded exclusively for such information purposes and are not sold to third parties. Business Broker AG will only disclose personal data to other third parties if expressly required by law or regulatory provisions. The user nevertheless grants Business Broker AG the right to contact him/her using this data in order to inform him/her of services or offerings and to provide him/her with information and publicity material for this purpose.
Communication via electronic media harbours the risk of misuse of data and hacker attacks. It therefore cannot be ruled out that data becomes accessible to unauthorised third parties and that the contact between the user and Business Broker AG can be traced.
