đź“„ Legal Notice Regarding a Private Website

No Legal Obligation to Provide an Imprint pursuant to § 5 Digitale‑Dienste‑Gesetz (DDG)

This website is operated exclusively for personal and family purposes. It does not pursue any commercial, professional, or business‑related objectives and therefore does not constitute a digital service within the meaning of § 5 of the German Digitale‑Dienste‑Gesetz (DDG).

In particular:

The content of this website is intended solely for private use, such as the presentation of personal interests, family‑related content, or a private online diary accessible to friends and acquaintances.

Legal Classification

Under the applicable legal framework, a website is not subject to an imprint obligation if it serves exclusively personal or family purposes and lacks any commercial connection. Even isolated remunerated elements—such as advertising banners or affiliate links—would remove the website from the purely private sphere and trigger an imprint requirement.

Given the strict legal standards and the often blurred line between private and imprint‑obligated websites, the classification of this website has been carried out with due care.
