To the fullest extent permissible pursuant to applicable law, we disclaim all warranties, express or implied, including, but not limited to, implied warranties of merchantability and fitness for a particular purpose, title, non-infringement, freedom from computer virus, and warranties arising from course of dealing, or course of performance or usage of trade. We do not represent or warrant that the functions contained in the site, software, or related to the services will be uninterrupted or error-free, that defects will be corrected, or that the site, software, or related to the services or the server that enables the services to be available are free of viruses or other harmful components.

Limitation of Liability

The Website and the Resources are provided on an 'as is' and 'as available' basis. We shall not be liable for any damages you or any other person may suffer. Notwithstanding the foregoing, you agree that in no event will we be liable to you or any other person for any indirect, incidental, punitive or other consequential damages (including, without limitation, lost profits and damages related to corruption or deletion of the services) arising out of or in relation to this agreement or your use or inability to use the site or the service (including, but not limited to, inoperability of our or our contractors' servers), regardless of the form of action, whether in contract, tort (including negligence) or otherwise, even if we have been advised of, knew, or should have know of the possibility of such damages and even if direct damages do not satisfy a remedy. This includes, but is not limited to, any loss that may occur due to any loss of the use of the Website or the Resources, access delays or access interruptions to the services, the non-delivery or mis-delivery of data between you and us, events beyond our reasonable control, the non-recognition of our hosting servers, the protection or privacy of electronic mail or other information transferred through the internet or any other network provider or service its customers may utilize, or the application of any policy set forth herein.

If you are a California resident, you waive California civil code ยง1542, which says: a general release does not extend to claims which the creditor does not know or suspect to exist in his or her favor at the time of executing the release, which if known by him or her must have materially affected his or her settlement with the debtor.

If you are a visitor to the site from New Jersey, certain warranties and/or limitations of liability, including the limitation of liability based on our negligence, gross negligence, or intentional conduct may not apply to you or may be unenforceable under New Jersey law. Such provisions are enforceable only to the full extent permitted by New Jersey law.

Indemnification

By utilizing the Website or the Resources you agree to indemnify, defend and hold us and our officers, directors, employees, agents and affiliates harmless from and against any and all liability, losses, costs, and expenses (including attorneys' fees) incurred by us through your use of the Website or the Resources or your posting or transmission of User Content in violation of these Terms (including, but not limited to, negligent or wrongful conduct, infringement of any third party's intellectual property, confidentiality, privacy or publicity rights). You also agree to take sole responsibility for any royalties, fees or other monies owed to any person or entity by reason of any content you post or transmit through the Website or the Resources we provide. We reserve the right, at our own expense, to assume the exclusive defense and control of any matter otherwise subject to indemnification by you, and in such case, you agree to cooperate with our defense of such claim. This Section shall survive any expiration or termination of the Terms.

Our Website is operated in the United States of America, and we make no representation that content provided is applicable or appropriate for use in other locations. We make no claims that the Website or any of its content is accessible or appropriate outside of the United States. Access to the Website may not be legal by certain persons or in certain countries. If you access the Website from outside the United States, you do so on your own initiative and are responsible for compliance with local laws. Your use of the Website does not subject us to judicial process in or to the jurisdiction of courts or other tribunals in your jurisdiction or location.

Communications

By creating a User account or giving us any contact information, you agree to and do hereby consent to receive mail and electronic communications (email, text/SMS and by telephone) from us and/or by posting the Communications on the Website (e.g., by posting notices on your account profile page) concerning information and/or our Resources (collectively, 'Communications'). You may change the email or mobile phone number on file for your User account by visiting your account profile page or by contacting us.

General

These Terms, including, but not limited to, the Privacy Policy (and updates to the foregoing) and any other terms agreed to in writing by the parties or by way of your use of the Website or the Resources shall constitute the entire and exclusive understanding and agreement between you and us regarding this subject matter, and shall supersede any and all prior or contemporaneous representations or understandings relating to this subject matter, and except as expressly permitted in these Terms may only be amended by a written agreement signed by authorized representatives of the parties. In the event that any part of these Terms is held to be invalid or unenforceable, the unenforceable part shall be given effect to the greatest extent possible and the remaining parts will remain in full force and effect. Upon termination of these Terms, any provision which, by its nature or express terms should survive, will survive such termination or expiration. The failure of us to exercise or enforce any right or provision of these Terms, including any failure to act with respect to a breach, will not constitute a waiver of such right or our right to act with respect to subsequent or similar breaches.

You may not assign, convey, or transfer (whether by contract, merger or operation of law) these Terms, in whole or in part, without our prior written consent, which may be granted or withheld by us in our sole discretion. Any attempted assignment in violation of these Terms will be of no power or effect. We may assign these Terms freely at any time without notice. Subject to the foregoing, these Terms will bind and inure to the benefit of each party's permitted successors and assigns. We reserve the right to, and you hereby consent to, our right to disclose, transfer, and/or assign your Personal Information in connection with a merger, consolidation, restructuring, financing, sale, or other transaction. In addition, when a potential buyer is interested in pursuing a merger, acquisition or another type of business combination with us, you agree that we may provide the potential buyer with your Personal Information, subject to the restrictions in these Terms.

The failure to exercise or enforce any right or provision shall not affect our right to exercise or enforce such right or provision at any time thereafter, nor shall a waiver of any breach or default of these Terms constitute a waiver of any subsequent breach or default or a waiver of the provision itself.

If any portion of these Terms is found by a court of competent jurisdiction to be invalid or unenforceable, the parties nevertheless agree that the court should endeavor to give effect to the parties' intentions as reflected in such provision, and, notwithstanding such finding, the remaining provisions of these Terms shall remain in full force and effect.

The parties intend that an independent contractor relationship will be created by these Terms, and that no additional partnership, joint venture, employee, employer or other relationship is intended. You agree not to hold yourself out as in any way sponsored by, affiliated with, endorsed by, in partnership or venture with, nor as an employee or employer of us, any of our affiliates or respective service providers. There are no third-party beneficiaries to these Terms.
