Thanks for your replies!
I just downloaded pandoc 1.13.2 and learned about the
pandoc -D epub
and
pandoc --template=FILE
features. This is great and easy to understand. I will certainly use it at some point.
For the current project, I decided to create a colophon section at the end of the document where all the stuff, credits, disclaimer, etc goes into.
Kind regards

(These remarks concern pandoc 1.13.2 and its default templates.)
You can customize the epub (or epub3) template. See the User's Guide
under Templates for basic instructions. The epub templates have
conditionals
$if(titlepage)$
...
$endif$
and whatever goes in place of the ... will be on the title page.
So, this is extremely customizable.
