No Warranties
=============
The Application is provided to You "AS IS" and "AS AVAILABLE" and with all
faults and defects without warranty of any kind. To the maximum extent
permitted under applicable law, the Company, on its own behalf and on behalf
of its affiliates and its and their respective licensors and service
providers, expressly disclaims all warranties, whether express, implied,
statutory or otherwise, with respect to the Application, including all implied
warranties of merchantability, fitness for a particular purpose, title and
non-infringement, and warranties that may arise out of course of dealing,
course of performance, usage or trade practice. Without limitation to the
foregoing, the Company provides no warranty or undertaking, and makes no
representation of any kind that the Application will meet your requirements,
achieve any intended results, be compatible or work with any other software,
applications, systems or services, operate without interruption, meet any
performance or reliability standards or be error free or that any errors or
defects can or will be corrected.
Without limiting the foregoing, neither the Company nor any of the company's
provider makes any representation or warranty of any kind, express or implied:
(i) as to the operation or availability of the Application, or the
information, content, and materials or products included thereon; (ii) that

e-mails sent from or on behalf of the Company are free of viruses, scripts,
trojan horses, worms, malware, timebombs or other harmful components.
Some jurisdictions do not allow the exclusion of certain types of warranties
or limitations on applicable statutory rights of a consumer, so some or all of
the above exclusions and limitations may not apply to You. But in such a case
the exclusions and limitations set forth in this section shall be applied to
the greatest extent enforceable under applicable law. To the extent any
warranty exists under law that cannot be disclaimed, the Company, not the
Application Store, shall be solely responsible for such warranty.
Limitation of Liability
=======================
Notwithstanding any damages that You might incur, the entire liability of the
Company and any of its suppliers under any provision of this Agreement and
your exclusive remedy for all of the foregoing shall be limited to the amount
actually paid by You for the Application or through the Application or 100 USD

To the maximum extent permitted by applicable law, in no event shall the
Company or its suppliers be liable for any special, incidental, indirect, or
consequential damages whatsoever (including, but not limited to, damages for
loss of profits, loss of data or other information, for business interruption,
for personal injury, loss of privacy arising out of or in any way related to
the use of or inability to use the Application, third-party software and/or
third-party hardware used with the Application, or otherwise in connection
with any provision of this Agreement), even if the Company or any supplier has
been advised of the possibility of such damages and even if the remedy fails
of its essential purpose.
Some states/jurisdictions do not allow the exclusion or limitation of
incidental or consequential damages, so the above limitation or exclusion may
not apply to You.
You expressly understand and agree that the Application Store, its
subsidiaries and affiliates, and its licensors shall not be liable to You
under any theory of liability for any direct, indirect, incidental, special
consequential or exemplary damages that may be incurred by You, including any
loss of data, whether or not the Application Store or its representatives have
been advised of or should have been aware of the possibility of any such
losses arising.
Severability and Waiver
=======================

such provision will be changed and interpreted to accomplish the objectives of
such provision to the greatest extent possible under applicable law and the
remaining provisions will continue in full force and effect.
Waiver
------
Except as provided herein, the failure to exercise a right or to require
performance of an obligation under this Agreement shall not effect a party's
ability to exercise such right or require such performance at any time
thereafter nor shall be the waiver of a breach constitute a waiver of any
subsequent breach.
Product Claims

extent You have any claim arising from or relating to your use of the
