Access to Services

While access to some of our Services is free, access to some of our Services is restricted. We reserve the right to restrict access to any or all of our Services, at our discretion.

Disclaimer of Warranties and Limitation of Liability

Our Services are provided on an 'as-is' and 'as available' basis without any warranties, express or implied, including but not limited to the implied warranties of merchantability, fitness for a particular purpose, or non-infringement. This means that we do not guarantee that the Services will always be secure, error-free, or uninterrupted, nor do we guarantee the accuracy, reliability, or completeness of the information provided through our Services.

We understand that laws in some places may provide you with additional rights, and this disclaimer does not override those rights.

In no event will we, our partners, service providers, affiliates, or any of their respective directors, officers, employees, or agents be liable for any special, incidental, indirect, punitive, exemplary, or consequential damages, whether foreseeable or unforeseeable, arising out of or in connection with our Services. This limitation of liability applies to all claims, whether the claims are in contract, tort (including negligence), or otherwise, even if either party has been informed of the possibility of such damages.

By using our Services, you agree to protect us against any damages, losses, liabilities, claims, or expenses (including without limitation legal expenses and any amounts paid by us to a third party in settlement of a claim or dispute on the advice of our legal advisers) that arise from your use of our services in a manner that breaches these Terms of Service or any laws. This includes any actions you take that infringe on the rights of others or any content you post that leads to legal action against us.

Breaches of these Terms of Service

In the event of a breach of these Terms of Service, we reserve the right to take appropriate action to protect our community and services. This may include temporarily suspending your access to our Services, prohibiting future access to our Services, blocking access from your IP address, and, if necessary, legal action. We aim to ensure that any measures taken are proportionate and necessary to address the breach.

We are committed to providing a fair and transparent process. If your access to our Services is suspended or prohibited, you will have the opportunity to contact us for further information and, where appropriate, to appeal the decision. This ensures that our actions remain aligned with the principles of fairness, accountability, and respect for user rights.

Severability

If a provision of these Terms of Service is determined by any court or other competent authority to be unlawful and/or unenforceable, the other provisions will continue in effect. If any unlawful and/or unenforceable provision would be lawful or enforceable if part of it were deleted, that part will be deemed to be deleted, and the rest of the provision will continue in effect.

Exclusion of third party rights
