OUR LIABILITY

We are responsible to you for foreseeable loss and damage caused by us (unless such loss is not expressly excluded by this EULA). Loss or damage is foreseeable if either it is obvious that it will happen or if, at the time you accepted this EULA, both we and you knew it might happen.

We do not exclude or limit in any way our liability to you where it would be unlawful to do so. This includes liability for death or personal injury caused by our negligence or for fraud or fraudulent misrepresentation.

We will not be liable for damage that you could have avoided by following our advice to apply an update offered to you free of charge or for damage that was caused by you failing to correctly follow installation instructions or to have in place the minimum system requirements advised by us. We exclude all liability to the fullest extent permitted by law, in respect of any loss or damage resulting or arising from any non-availability of the Platform.

We are not liable for business losses. The Platform is for personal use by end users only. If you use the Platform for any commercial, business or resale purpose we will have no liability to you for any loss of profit, loss of business, business interruption, or loss of business opportunity.

The Platform is provided for general information and educational purposes only. It does not offer advice on which you should rely. Although we make reasonable efforts to update the information provided by the Platform, we make no representations, warranties or guarantees, whether express or implied, that such information is accurate, complete or up to date.

The Platform is made available strictly on the basis that you accept it on an 'as is' and 'as available' basis. Where you rely on the Platform, you do so entirely at your own risk and you accept that all warranties, conditions and undertakings, express or implied, whether by common law, statute, trade usage, course of dealings or otherwise in respect of this website are excluded to the fullest extent permitted by law. We are not responsible for events outside our control.

OTHER WEBSITES

The Platform may contain links to other independent websites which are not provided by us. Such independent sites are not under our control, and we are not responsible for and have not checked and approved their content.

You will need to make your own independent judgement about whether to use any such independent sites, including whether to buy any products or services offered by them.

Transferring rights: We may transfer our rights and obligations under this EULA to another organisation. We will always tell you in writing (which may include by email or by posting a notification on the Platform) if this happens and we will ensure that the transfer will not affect your rights under the contract. You may only transfer your rights or your obligations under this EULA to another person if we agree in writing. This EULA does not give rise to any rights under the Contracts (Rights of Third Parties) Act 1999 to enforce any term of this EULA.

Separate terms: Each of the paragraphs in this EULA operate separately. If any court or relevant authority decides that any of them are unlawful, the remaining paragraphs will remain in full force and effect.

Delay: Even if we delay in enforcing this EULA we can still enforce it later. If we do not insist immediately that you do anything you are required to do under this EULA, or if we delay in taking steps against you in respect of your breaking this EULA, that will not mean that you do not have to do those things and it will not prevent us taking steps against you at a later date.

Governing law: This EULA is governed by English law and the English courts will have exclusive jurisdiction in relation to any action or claim arising out of it.
