Limitation of liability for Breach of Terms, Conditions and Warranties
1. Nothing in these terms of use is or should be interpreted as an attempt to modify, limit or exclude terms, warranties or guarantees which are imposed by statute and which cannot be modified, limited or excluded.
2. We exclude to the fullest extent permitted by law all other terms, conditions, warranties and guarantees which might be implied in the terms of use.
3. Our liability for any breach of terms, conditions, and warranties, to the extent that such terms, conditions, and warranties are implied and required by law in certain jurisdictions, shall be limited to one of the remedies described below at our own discretion, provided that the breach relates to the provision of services that are not typically acquired for personal, domestic, or household use or consumption, and it is fair and reasonable to apply such limitation:
  1. Provide the services again, ensuring compliance with terms, conditions and warranties; or
  2. Refund the total amount of service paid to us within the past 12 months.
4. To the fullest extent permitted by law and except as otherwise expressly stated in the terms of use, our liability to you for a breach of, or omission under, these end-user terms of use, and for negligence or other tort, and for breach of statutory duty, and for breach of warranty during each calendar month while you have access to the service is limited in aggregate to the total amount of the past 12 months’ service fees paid to us.
5. To the fullest extent permitted by law, you agree you are not relying on any representation, warranty or other provision made by us or on our behalf which is not expressly stated in the terms of use.
6. To the fullest extent permitted by law and except as otherwise expressly provided in this clause 23:
  1. we do not accept responsibility for any loss or damage, however, caused (including through negligence), which you may directly or indirectly suffer in connection with your use of the service or any linked website, nor do we accept any responsibility for any loss arising out of your use of or reliance on any Content; and
  2. without limiting clause 23(e), we are not liable for any direct, indirect, incidental, special and/or consequential damage, loss, claim, expense or loss of profits, economic loss, business interruption, loss of goodwill, loss of profits, loss of savings on overheads or any loss of data which result from any use or access, or any inability to use or access, or misuse by you or any other party, of the service or otherwise in connection with any content, even if we have been advised of the possibility of such damages or loss.
7. Nothing in the terms of use is intended to exclude or limit any condition, warranty, right, or liability in a manner that is not permissible under applicable law. In some circumstances, some jurisdictions may not permit the exclusion of certain warranties or conditions, the exclusion of incidental or consequential damages, or the limitation or exclusion of liability for loss or damage caused by negligence, breach of contract, or breach of implied terms. Accordingly, only the above limitations which are lawful in the applicable jurisdiction as to your use of the service will apply to such use.

This will not affect any mandatory statutory liability. Some jurisdictions do not allow the limitation of liability for death and personal injury in some situations, so such limitations and exclusions in clause 23(f)(ii) may not apply to you.
8. Subject to this clause 23, the liability of a party for loss or damage sustained by the other party will be reduced proportionately to the extent that:
  1. such loss or damage has been caused by the other party’s failure to comply with its obligations and responsibilities under these terms of use; or
  2. the negligence of the other party has contributed to such loss or damage, regardless of whether a claim is made by the other party.
9. If the laws in your country state that there is a guarantee in relation to the service, and our liability for failing to comply with that guarantee cannot be excluded but may be limited, our liability for such failure is limited exclusively to repairing the service and you may discontinue using the service.
