Disclaimer
Liability for Content
As a service provider, we are responsible for our own content on these pages under the general laws in accordance with § 7 paragraph 1 of the TMG. However, according to §§ 8 to 10 of the TMG, we are not obliged as a service provider to monitor transmitted or stored external information or to investigate circumstances that indicate illegal activity. Obligations to remove or block the use of information under general law remain unaffected by this. However, liability in this respect is only possible from the time of knowledge of a specific legal violation. Upon becoming aware of such violations, we will remove the content immediately.
Fair Use Notice:
In certain channels, only material from third-party providers is used, which is satirically or critically commented upon. This creates an independent work that does not constitute a copyright infringement according to the Federal Court of Justice ruling of April 13, 2000 – I ZR 282/97. This is known as the "Kalkofe Ruling." Further information can be found at: [Link to the ruling].
Liability for Links
Our offer contains links to external third-party websites, the content of which we have no influence over. Therefore, we cannot assume any liability for these external contents. The respective provider or operator of the pages is always responsible for the content of the linked pages. The linked pages were checked for possible legal violations at the time of linking. Illegal content was not recognizable at the time of linking. However, permanent content control of the linked pages is not reasonable without concrete evidence of a legal violation. Upon becoming aware of legal violations, we will remove such links immediately.
Embedding
The content on our website may only be used for private purposes. Copyright must be observed. Reproduction, distribution, and any public reproduction of the content on this website (including the embedding of audio streams in third-party platforms or internet offerings) is only permitted with our written consent. This also applies to inclusion in electronic databases. It is clarified that the public performance of audio streams also requires the approval of GEMA Munich or the respective rights organization in the broadcaster's/ user’s country of residence.
Copyright
The content and works created by the site operators on these pages are subject to European copyright law. Reproduction, processing, distribution, and any kind of exploitation outside the limits of copyright require the written consent of the respective author or creator. Downloads and copies of this page are only permitted for private, non-commercial use. Insofar as the content on this page was not created by the operator, the copyrights of third parties are respected. In particular, third-party content is marked as such. Should you nevertheless become aware of a copyright infringement, we ask for a corresponding notification. Upon becoming aware of legal violations, we will remove such content immediately.
Text and Data Mining
We expressly reserve the right to use all content on this website, in our programs, and in social media offerings (such as texts, images, graphics, audio, and video) for text and data mining under §44b UrhG. The music included in our program is licensed by GEMA, which has made a corresponding reservation. Requests to use music for text and data mining purposes should be directed to GEMA, Munich.

When you upload, submit, store, send, or receive content to or through our services, you give MFRadio.de and vad.io (and those we work with) a worldwide license to use, host, store, reproduce, modify, create derivative works (such as those resulting from translations, adaptations, or other changes we make so that your content works better with our services), communicate, publish, publicly perform, publicly display, and distribute such content. The rights you grant in this license are for the limited purpose of operating, promoting, and improving our services and to develop new ones. Some services may offer you ways to access and remove content that has been provided to that service. In addition, some of our services have terms or settings that narrow the scope of our use of the content submitted to those services. Make sure you have the necessary rights to grant us this license for any content that you submit to our services.

To the extent permitted by law, the total liability of MFRadio.de and MFVadio.com, and its suppliers and distributors, for any claims under these terms, including any implied warranties, is limited to the amount you paid us to use the services (or, if we choose, to supply you with the services again).
In all cases, MFRadio.de and MFVadio.com, and its suppliers and distributors, will not be liable for any loss or damage that is not reasonably foreseeable.
We recognize that in some countries, you might have legal rights as a consumer. If you are using the services for personal purposes, then nothing in these terms or additional terms limits any consumer legal rights that may not be waived by contract.
About These Terms
We may modify these terms or any additional terms that apply to a service to reflect changes to the law or changes to our services. You should look at the terms regularly. We’ll post notice of modifications to these terms on this page. We’ll post notice of modified additional terms in the applicable service. Changes will not apply retroactively and will become effective no sooner than fourteen days after they are posted. However, changes addressing new functions for a service or changes made for legal reasons will be effective immediately. If you do not agree to the modified terms for a service, you should discontinue your use of that service.
If there is a conflict between these terms and the additional terms, the additional terms will control for that conflict.
All fees listed in these terms are quoted in Euros (€). If your subscription is billed in another currency, we use the current daily exchange rate to calculate the fees due.
These terms control the relationship between MFRadio.de and MFVadio.com and you. They do not create any third-party beneficiary rights.
If you do not comply with these terms, and we don’t take action right away, this doesn’t mean that we are giving up any rights that we may have (such as taking action in the future).
If it turns out that a particular term is not enforceable, this will not affect any other terms.
