3.1 The User undertakes to use the services of HOGASTJOB.COM lawfully. He assures not to disseminate any contents relevant under criminal law within the scope of use and not to violate any other rights of third parties (in particular industrial property rights and competition rights). In particular, the dissemination of content that is harmful to minors, pornographic, extremist and racist content, virus attacks as well as the misuse of the services of HOGASTJOB.COM for an intervention in the security measures of a third-party network, host or account (e.g. cracking, hacking) is prohibited. In particular, the aforementioned actions entitle HOGAST to immediately terminate the contractual relationship without notice and to block or delete all content of the affected user.

3.2 After issuing the password, the user must ensure its secrecy and proper use. 3.3 The user agrees that all communications concerning the user relationship of the services as well as new service offers of hogastjob.com may be sent to him by email, unless another form is prescribed by law.

By posting content on HOGASTJOB.COM, the user grants HOGAST the right to collect, process and use such content for the purpose of providing the services of HOGASTJOB.COM for the duration of the user's registration or for the duration of any service relationship arising therefrom.

5.1 The user is responsible for all content that he posts on HOGASTJOB.COM, e.g. texts, photos, graphics, files, links, etc. The user is also responsible for the content of the HOGASTJOB.COM website. He undertakes to comply with the legal provisions, in particular not to infringe any trademark rights, copyrights, personal rights or other rights of third parties.

5.2 The User shall protect his HOGASTJOB.COM access against unauthorized use by third parties and keep his password secret. The user shall indemnify HOGAST against all damages incurred by HOGAST due to unauthorized use of the HOGASTJOB access or other damaging actions by the user or third parties, insofar as the user is at fault.

5.3 HOGAST shall only be liable for third-party content (1) if HOGAST has knowledge of the unlawful acts or the content and, in the case of claims for damages, hogast is also aware of the facts or circumstances from which the unlawful act or content becomes apparent, or (2) if HOGAST has not acted expeditiously to remove the content or to block access to it as soon as hogast has gained such knowledge.

5.4 HOGAST is entitled to remove illegal content (e.g. content that violates legal or official prohibitions or offends common decency) from HOGASTJOB.COM without prior warning to the user. The user will be informed of such a measure without delay. This shall not give rise to any claim for reimbursement on the part of the user.

5.5 If HOGAST becomes aware of an unlawful act by the User or if hogast is informed of an alleged unlawful act by a third party, hogast will disclose the personal data to the law enforcement and regulatory authorities within the scope of the statutory provisions. Should a review of the legality of the transmission or the action complained of be required by hogast beforehand on the basis of legal provisions, HOGAST will comply with this.

HOGAST expressly distances itself from the content of all websites to which direct or indirect references (so-called "links") exist from the HOGASTJOB.COM website and accepts no responsibility or liability for them.
