8. Liability for Content
As a service provider, we are responsible for our own content on these pages under general law. However, we are not obligated to monitor transmitted or stored third-party information, or to investigate circumstances that indicate unlawful activity, and our liability is governed by the applicable provisions of the Digitale-Dienste-Gesetz (DDG) and the EU Digital Services Act (DSA). This includes content that customers upload and share through capsend links, which remains their sole responsibility as outlined in our Terms of Service. Obligations to remove or block the use of information under general law remain unaffected. Liability in this regard is only possible from the point in time at which a concrete infringement of the law becomes known. Upon becoming aware of any such legal infringements, we will remove the relevant content immediately.
9. Liability for Links
Our marketing and legal pages may contain links to external third-party websites, over whose content we have no influence. Therefore we cannot assume any liability for these external contents. The respective provider or operator of the linked pages is always responsible for their content. The linked pages were checked for possible legal violations at the time of linking; no illegal content was identifiable at that time. A permanent content review of linked pages is unreasonable without concrete evidence of a legal violation. Upon notification of such violations, we will remove the respective link immediately.
10. Copyright
The content and works created by the site operator on these pages are subject to German copyright law. Duplication, processing, distribution, or any form of commercialization of such material beyond the scope of copyright law requires the prior written consent of [COMPANY LEGAL NAME] or the respective author. Downloads and copies of these pages are only permitted for private, non-commercial use. Insofar as content on this site was not created by the operator, third-party copyrights are respected. In particular, third-party content is marked as such. Should you nonetheless become aware of a copyright infringement, please notify us accordingly at [CONTACT EMAIL]. Upon becoming aware of legal violations, we will remove such content immediately.
11. Hosting & Data Location
This website and the capsend application are hosted on infrastructure operated by our processors: the primary database runs on Neon in Frankfurt, Germany, and uploaded files are stored on Cloudflare R2 in EU regions. A full list of processors and their locations is set out in our Privacy Policy.
