* For reasons of better readability, the masculine spelling ‘participant’ was generally used for the designation ‘participant’. We would like to expressly point out at this point that the exclusive use of the masculine form should be explicitly understood as gender-independent and that both the feminine and masculine spelling of the corresponding terms are meant.
