This page explains how the content on intelligent-pixel.com is meant, what we stand behind and what we do not. It supplements the legal notice and the privacy policy. It does not replace contractual agreements.

These notes apply to all content on intelligent-pixel.com in German and English. They explain how the text on this website is meant, what we stand behind and what we do not. They supplement the legal notice and the privacy policy. They do not replace contractual agreements.

On this website we explain legal provisions so that the technical background of our work makes sense. That is general information. It is not legal advice, not tax advice, and not an assessment of your case. Reading these pages does not create an advisory or information contract.

George A. Rauscher is not a lawyer. intelligent piXel GmbH provides no legal services within the meaning of section 2 of the German Legal Services Act (RDG) and no tax assistance within the meaning of section 1 StBerG.

When we record a company's activities, systems, and figures, for instance on the question of whether the BSIG applies, we establish and organise facts. The legal assessment of those facts belongs with a lawyer. We are glad to work with your law firm and supply the technical basis.

The legal statements reflect the position as of August 8, 2026. Germany's NIS2 Implementation Act, the BSIG, the administrative practice of the BSI, and the case law around them are all in motion. What is correct here today can be out of date in 3 months.

Figures on this website are snapshots of the source named, at the time named. That covers BSI registration numbers, size thresholds, fine ranges, and attacker dwell time per M-Trends 2026 from Mandiant. We check these figures when we revise the pages. We take on no duty of continuous updating.

For a decision, rely on the statute as it stands and on the original source, not on our summary.

We write these pages ourselves and we research what goes on them. We cannot warrant that they are correct, complete, or current. Technical descriptions are deliberately shortened so that they stay readable. They describe the rule, not every exception.

No statement on this website is a warranty in the legal sense. Section 675(2) of the German Civil Code (BGB) applies to advice and recommendations given publicly here without any contractual basis.

Absolute security does not exist. Every system reachable from the internet carries a residual risk: unknown vulnerabilities, attackers with patience and money, and the person who clicks on something.

IPServerSec and every other measure we describe lowers the likelihood and the extent of damage. It does not rule out an attack, a compromise, or an outage. We owe professional work to the current state of the art, not attack-free operation. No text on this website is a guarantee under section 443 BGB, and none promises a particular level of security, a particular availability, or a migration without interruption.

Assessment reports, acceptance documents, and quarterly reports record what was examined and what was done. What weight a supervisory authority, an insurer, a client, or a court gives those documents in a specific case is for that body to decide. The same holds for forensic reconstructions: we document them so that they are technically verifiable. Whether a court follows them is for the court alone to decide.

From 2000 to 2025 George A. Rauscher was a court-appointed expert and worked in that role for public prosecutors, courts, and law firms. He is not publicly appointed and sworn within the meaning of section 36 of the German Trade Regulation Act (GewO), and he never was. He is not a lawyer. Since 2025 he no longer works for German courts or authorities.

The memberships named, the BSI Alliance for Cyber Security and the Apple Developer Program, are memberships. They are not an audit, a certification, an approval, or an endorsement by the BSI, by Apple, or by any other body.

Professional experience, project examples, and long-standing client relationships refer to the personal work of George A. Rauscher, which he began before the company was founded. Your contracting party is always intelligent piXel GmbH.

This website describes services without obligation. It contains no offer within the meaning of section 145 BGB, no price list, and no promise of a particular scope of work. Which protective layers we install, which assessment stages we run, and what effort is involved follows only from the written quotation after the intake assessment.

A contract comes into being through our written quotation and your signature. We invoice nobody for anything they did not commission in writing beforehand.

We work exclusively with companies, public authorities, and self-employed professionals, not with consumers. This page therefore deliberately contains no consumer notices and no right-of-withdrawal notice. We do not use general terms and conditions.

This page is not a contractual term. What is owed in a specific case is set out in the written quotation, in the statement of work, and, where we process personal data for you, in the data processing agreement under Art. 28 GDPR. Where a statement on this website differs from your contract, your contract governs.

We carry the statutory responsibility for the content of this website. We do not declare a blanket exclusion of liability here, because it would be void and we are not going to put on a show.

Our liability is unlimited for intent and gross negligence, for injury to life, body, or health, for fraudulent concealment, to the extent of any guarantee given, and under the German Product Liability Act. That liability cannot be contracted away, and certainly not by a website.

Outside those cases we are not liable for loss arising from following the general information published here, because we provide it without any contractual basis and without knowledge of your specific situation (section 675(2) BGB). Liability under a contract with us is governed by that contract and by statute, not by this page.

We link to third-party offerings, among them rauscher.xyz, antrometric.com, encryptor.app, my.0at.de, and Telegram. We have no influence over their content, and the respective provider or operator is always responsible for it. At the time we set the link, no legal violations were apparent. We do not carry out continuous content review of other people's sites without a concrete indication, and it would not be reasonable to expect that. As soon as we learn of a legal violation, we remove the link without delay.

We do not adopt third-party content as our own. In doing so we do not invoke a 1998 ruling of the Hamburg Regional Court. The text block circulated on the back of it misstates the decision and changes nothing about the legal position.

The text, images, graphics, design, and source code of this website are protected by copyright. The rights belong to intelligent piXel GmbH unless stated otherwise. The Lucide icons used here are under the ISC licence, details in the legal notice.

You may quote from these pages with attribution and a link. Taking whole texts into your own materials, rebuilding these pages, and any commercial reuse require our prior written consent.

Search engines and AI systems may read, index, analyse, and quote these pages. That is expressly intended. We declare no reservation of use under section 44b(3) of the German Copyright Act. If you learn something here, pass it on, preferably with a link.

We name third-party products, services, and institutions so that you can see what runs under the hood and who is involved in the supply chain. That includes CrowdSec, OWASP, Hetzner, Proton, Telegram, RustDesk, Qdrant, Mandiant, Google, Apple, Canonical, Ubuntu, Let's Encrypt, AIDE, AppArmor, Lucide, and the BSI.

Those names and trademarks belong to their respective owners. We use them descriptively within the meaning of section 23 of the German Trade Mark Act (MarkenG). We claim no partnership, certification, audit, or endorsement by the bodies named, except where we say so explicitly.

We use AI models as a tool: in software development, in the search for vulnerabilities, and in the reconstruction of incidents. A model's output is an interim result to us, not a finding. A human reviews every result, and intelligent piXel GmbH remains responsible.

Personal data from client systems goes to such providers only under a prior written agreement, and only to providers covered by a data processing agreement under Art. 28 GDPR. Without such an agreement we analyse locally only.

We run this website with care, but we owe no particular availability. Our protective systems block suspicious addresses and individual network ranges automatically. If you are caught by that in error, write to my@intelligent-pixel.com. We review the block by hand and restore access where appropriate. The details are in the privacy policy.

If you find an error here, an outdated figure, or a legal violation, write to my@intelligent-pixel.com. We will check it and correct what needs correcting. That route is faster than any lawsuit, and we prefer it.

Last updated August 8, 2026. We revise this page when content, technology, or the legal position changes. The German version at /de/disclaimer/ is the authoritative one. This English version is a translation for information.
