As part of the LFI Galerie, our company IDC Corporate Publishing GmbH offers you the opportunity to place your own photos on the Internet, to create profiles, and to evaluate and comment on other photos. However, the administrators of the LFI Galerie are not in a position to check every single posting. In order to protect the rights of users and third parties, and also for our own protection, it is therefore necessary to stipulate a number of rules:

• 1. We are merely providing the Internet interface for the publication of third party postings, and therefore do not accept any liability for any of the contents published by LFI Galerie users. Please note that as a User, you are fully responsible to ensure that the contents of your postings is legal, and particularly, you must observe the following:
  • postings must not breach any third party copyrights and/or rights of use, and you may only broadcast postings to which you have the sole copyright; and
  • which do not breach the personal rights of third parties; any persons depicted on photos must have explicitly consented to publication;
  • postings may not contain any advertising; and
  • should not be liable to corrupt the young, contain any pornographic, racist, offensive, defamatory or otherwise illegal contents.
• 2. Your user account may only be used by you personally. You must therefore ensure that third parties do not learn your password, and that third parties cannot place postings via your user account.
• 3. While we are entitled to verify the legality of any broadcast contents, we are not obliged to do so. We have to reserve the right to refuse individual postings which do not comply with our requirements, or use our discretion to exclude users who breach the law or any of these rules, and to remove postings from the LFI Galerie. There is no entitlement to have photos published in the LFI Galerie.
• 4. By transferring your postings to our servers, you are declaring that you are allowed to execute the rights of use for the contents. At the same time, you are granting IDC Corporate Publishing GmbH a right to use your digital photographs. Within the context of the LFI Gallery presentation, this right of use includes an open-ended right to copy, distribute and give public access worldwide. This right of use is granted free of charge. In doing so you are merely granting us a simple and non-exclusive right of use. As for the rest, you retain all copyrights and you may at any time exercise these rights. You may erase your data from our servers at any time.
• 5. If any third party claims a breach of its rights resulting from contents you have posted, you agree that you will give us the best possible support to counter such claims, and that you release us from any claims a third party may make against us resulting from a breach of their rights due to your postings.
• 6. Please note that we do not back up transferred data, and therefore do not accept liability for any data loss.
• 7. We do take data protection seriously and will not pass on your personal data to third parties. Personal data and the IP addresses for accessing gallery offerings are only stored and processed as required to facilitate your use of our services. You can get information about your data stored by us at any time.
• The LFI Galerie site uses cookies to save data on your computer. These cookies are merely intended to enable the use of the site.
• 8. Should any of these stipulations prove invalid, this does not affect the validity of the remaining stipulations.
