Koelnmesse expressly declares that the websites to which it has created links were free of illegal content at the time the links were made. Koelnmesse has no influence on the current and future form or content of the linked websites. It therefore expressly distances itself from all content on the linked websites that has been changed since the links were created. This statement applies to all of the links contained on the Koelnmesse websites as well as to external entries in guest books, discussion forums, and mailing lists organized by Koelnmesse. Only the provider of the website to which we have created a link is liable for illegal, incorrect or incomplete content and for damages caused by the use or non-use of such information.
