All fees and sales are FINAL AND NON-REFUNDABLE to the fullest extent permitted by law and any refunds shall be made in our sole and absolute discretion.  Our decision, if any, to issue a refund shall not entitle you or any other user of the Service to any discounts or refunds in the future for similar events and/or occurrences.

21. Disclaimers; No Warranties

THE SERVICE AND ANY DOWNLOADABLE SOFTWARE, APPLICATIONS, CONTENT, PRODUCTS, SERVICES AND MATERIALS AVAILABLE IN CONJUNCTION WITH OR THROUGH THE SERVICE ARE PROVIDED “AS IS” AND “AS AVAILABLE”, WITHOUT WARRANTIES OR CONDITIONS OF ANY KIND, EITHER EXPRESS OR IMPLIED.  TO THE FULLEST EXTENT POSSIBLE PURSUANT TO APPLICABLE LAW, THE CLEVERIFIC ENTITIES DISCLAIM AND EXCLUDE ALL WARRANTIES OF ANY KIND, WHETHER STATUTORY, EXPRESS OR IMPLIED, RELATING TO THE SERVICE AND ANY DOWNLOADABLE SOFTWARE, CONTENT, PRODUCTS, SERVICES AND MATERIALS AVAILABLE IN CONJUNCTION WITH OR THROUGH THE SERVICE, INCLUDING, BUT NOT LIMITED TO, ANY IMPLIED WARRANTY OF MERCHANTABILITY, FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE, TITLE, QUIET ENJOYMENT, NON-INFRINGEMENT OF PROPRIETARY RIGHTS, OR ANY WARRANTY ARISING OUT OF COURSE OF DEALING, USAGE, OR TRADE.  

WITHOUT LIMITING THE FOREGOING, THE CLEVERIFIC ENTITIES DO NOT WARRANT OR MAKE ANY REPRESENTATIONS (I) THAT THE SERVICE AND ANY DOWNLOADABLE SOFTWARE, WEBSITE, CONTENT, SERVICES, OR APPLICATIONS MADE AVAILABLE IN CONJUNCTION WITH OR THROUGH THE SERVICE OR THIRD-PARTY CONTENT WILL BE UNINTERRUPTED OR ERROR-FREE, THAT DEFECTS WILL BE CORRECTED, OR THAT THE SERVICE AND ANY DOWNLOADABLE SOFTWARE, WEBSITE, CONTENT, SERVICES, OR APPLICATIONS MADE AVAILABLE IN CONJUNCTION WITH OR THROUGH THE SERVICE, THE SERVER THAT MAKES THEM AVAILABLE, OR THIRD-PARTY CONTENT ARE FREE OF VIRUSES OR OTHER HARMFUL COMPONENTS, (II) REGARDING THE USE OF THE SERVICE AND ANY DOWNLOADABLE SOFTWARE, WEBSITE, CONTENT, SERVICES, OR APPLICATIONS OR THIRD-PARTY CONTENT MADE AVAILABLE IN CONJUNCTION WITH OR THROUGH THE SERVICE IN TERMS OF CORRECTNESS, ACCURACY, RELIABILITY, OR OTHERWISE, AND/OR (III) THAT THE SERVICE AND ANY DOWNLOADABLE SOFTWARE, WEBSITE, CONTENT, SERVICES, OR APPLICATIONS MADE AVAILABLE IN CONJUNCTION WITH OR THROUGH THE SERVICE OR THIRD-PARTY CONTENT WILL BE SECURE OR NT OTHERISE LOST OR ALTERED.  ANY MATERIAL OR DATA THAT YOU DOWNLOAD OR OTHERWISE OBTAIN THROUGH THE SERVICE IS AT YOUR OWN DISCRETION AND RISK.

22. Limitation of Liability

UNDER NO CIRCUMSTANCES WILL THE CLEVERIFIC ENTITIES AND OUR AFFILIATES BE LIABLE FOR ANY SPECIAL, INDIRECT, INCIDENTAL, OR CONSEQUENTIAL DAMAGES UNDER ANY THEORY OF LIABILITY, WHETHER BASED IN CONTRACT, TORT (INCLUDING NEGLIGENCE AND PRODUCT LIABILITY), OR OTHERWISE, EVEN IF THE CLEVERIFIC ENTITIES OR OUR AFFILIATES HAVE BEEN ADVISED OF THE POSSIBILITY OF SUCH DAMAGES.  APPLICABLE LAW MAY NOT ALLOW THE LIMITATION OR EXCLUSION OF LIABILITY OR INCIDENTAL OR CONSEQUENTIAL DAMAGES, SO THE ABOVE LIMITATION OR EXCLUSION MAY NOT APPLY TO YOU. IN SUCH CASES, CLEVERIFIC’S LIABILITY WILL BE LIMITED TO THE FULLEST EXTENT PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE LAW.

THE TOTAL LIABILITY OF THE CLEVERIFIC ENTITIES TO YOU  FOR ALL DAMAGES, LOSSES OR CAUSES OF ACTION IS LIMITED TO $100 OR THE AMOUNTS, IF ANY, PAID BY YOU TO USE THE SERVICE, WHICHEVER IS MORE.

SOME JURISDICTIONS DO NOT ALLOW THE EXCLUSION OR LIMITATION OF LIABILITY FOR CONSEQUENTIAL OR INCIDENTAL DAMAGES, IN WHICH CASE SUCH LIMITATIONS SHALL APPLY TO YOU TO THE EXTENT PERMITTED IN SUCH JURISDICTION.  FURTHERMORE, NOTHING IN THESE TERMS LIMITS OR EXCLUDES ANY LIABILITY THAT CANNOT BE LIMITED OR EXCLUDED BY LAW, SUCH AS LIABILITY FOR INTENTIONAL VIOLATION OF THESE TERMS. NOTHING IN THESE TERMS AFFECTS YOUR LEGAL RIGHTS AS A CONSUMER.

EACH PROVISION OF THESE TERMS THAT PROVIDES FOR A LIMITATION OF LIABILITY, DISCLAIMER OF WARRANTIES, OR EXCLUSION OF DAMAGES IS INTENDED TO AND DOES ALLOCATE THE RISKS BETWEEN THE PARTIES UNDER THESE TERMS. THIS ALLOCATION IS AN ESSENTIAL ELEMENT OF THE BASIS OF THE BARGAIN BETWEEN THE PARTIES. EACH OF THESE PROVISIONS IS SEVERABLE AND INDEPENDENT OF ALL OTHER PROVISIONS OF THESE TERMS. THE LIMITATIONS IN THIS SECTION WILL APPLY EVEN IF ANY LIMITED REMEDY FAILS OF ITS ESSENTIAL PURPOSE.

23. Force Majeure

Cleverific shall be excused from performance under these Terms for any period that it is prevented from or delayed in performing any obligations pursuant to these Terms, in whole or in part, as a result of: (1) inclement weather or acts of God; (2) acts of war, terrorism, insurrection, riots, civil disorders or rebellion; (3) quarantines or embargoes; (4) labor trouble; (5) acts of government or public bodies; (6) telecommunications, network, computer, server or Internet downtime; (7) unauthorized access to Cleverific’s information technology systems by third parties; or (8) other causes unforeseen by Cleverific and beyond our reasonable control.
