Disclaimers
YOUR ACCESS TO AND USE OF THE WEBSITE AND SERVICES IS AT YOUR OWN RISK. YOU UNDERSTAND AND AGREE THAT THE WEBSITE AND SERVICES ARE PROVIDED TO YOU ON AN “AS IS” AND “AS AVAILABLE” BASIS.
WE DISCLAIM ALL WARRANTIES AND REPRESENTATIONS OF ANY KIND, WHETHER EXPRESS, IMPLIED, OR STATUTORY, INCLUDING, BUT NOT LIMITED TO, ANY WARRANTIES OF MERCHANTABILITY, FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE, TITLE, NON-INFRINGEMENT, ACCURACY, OR QUIET ENJOYMENT. WITHOUT LIMITING THE FOREGOING, WE MAKE NO WARRANTY THAT (I) THE WEBSITE OR SERVICES WILL MEET YOUR REQUIREMENTS OR EXPECTATIONS, (II) ACCESS TO THE WEBSITE OR SERVICES WILL BE UNINTERRUPTED, TIMELY, SECURE, FREE OF VIRUSES OR ERRORS, OR OTHERWISE RELIABLE, OR (III) ANY DEFECTS IN THE WEBSITE OR SERVICES WILL BE CORRECTED.
ANY CONTENT ACCESSED, DOWNLOADED, OR OTHERWISE OBTAINED ON OR THROUGH THE USE OF THE WEBSITE OR SERVICES IS ACCESSED AT YOUR OWN DISCRETION AND RISK. WE ARE NOT RESPONSIBLE FOR ANY DAMAGE TO YOUR COMPUTER SYSTEM OR LOSS OF DATA THAT RESULTS FROM ACCESSING THE WEBSITE OR SERVICES.
NO ADVICE, RESULTS, OR INFORMATION OBTAINED BY YOU FROM US OR THROUGH THE WEBSITE OR SERVICES SHALL CREATE ANY WARRANTY NOT EXPRESSLY STATED IN THESE TERMS.
WE MAY OFFER NEW OR EXISTING SERVICES VIA LINKS ON THE WEBSITE. YOUR USE OF THOSE SERVICES REQUIRES YOUR AGREEMENT TO ADDITIONAL TERMS THAT WILL BE PRESENTED TO YOU FOR ACCEPTANCE.
Limitation of Liability
TO THE MAXIMUM EXTENT PERMITTED BY LAW, IN NO EVENT SHALL CATERGATOR® COOLER, ITS AFFILIATES, OR THEIR LICENSORS, SERVICE PROVIDERS, EMPLOYEES, AGENTS, OFFICERS, OR DIRECTORS BE LIABLE FOR ANY SPECIAL, INCIDENTAL, INDIRECT, CONSEQUENTIAL, PUNITIVE, RELIANCE, OR EXEMPLARY DAMAGES, INCLUDING WITHOUT LIMITATION DAMAGES FOR LOSS OF PROFITS, USE, DATA, OR OTHER LOSSES, ARISING OUT OF OR RELATING TO THESE TERMS OR YOUR USE OF OR INABILITY TO USE THE WEBSITE OR SERVICES, WHETHER BASED ON CONTRACT, TORT, NEGLIGENCE, STRICT LIABILITY, OR ANY OTHER LEGAL THEORY, EVEN IF CATERGATOR® COOLER HAS BEEN ADVISED OF THE POSSIBILITY OF SUCH DAMAGES.
IN NO EVENT SHALL CATERGATOR® COOLER’S TOTAL AGGREGATE LIABILITY ARISING OUT OF OR RELATING TO THESE TERMS OR YOUR USE OF OR INABILITY TO USE THE WEBSITE OR SERVICES EXCEED THE AMOUNTS YOU HAVE PAID US IN THE LAST 12 MONTHS.
APPLICABLE LAW MAY NOT ALLOW THE LIMITATION OR EXCLUSION OF LIABILITY OR DAMAGES, SO THE ABOVE LIMITATION OR EXCLUSION MAY NOT APPLY TO YOU. IN SUCH CASES, CATERGATOR® COOLER’S LIABILITY WILL BE LIMITED TO THE FULLEST EXTENT PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE LAW.
Indemnification
You will defend, hold harmless, and indemnify Catergator® Cooler and its subsidiaries, affiliates, officers, directors, agents, partners, and employees from any third-party claim arising from or related to your activities on the Website or Services or your breach of any provision of these Terms, including any liability or expense arising from claims, losses, damages, suits, judgments, litigation costs, and attorneys’ fees.
Governing Law
These Terms are governed by the laws of the State of California without regard to conflict of law principles. You agree that any dispute arising out of or relating to these Terms or the Website or Services shall be subject to the exclusive jurisdiction and venue in the state and federal courts located in the Northern District of California, and both parties expressly consent to personal jurisdiction and venue in these courts.
Severability and Survival
Should any provision of these Terms be held to be invalid or unenforceable, then that provision shall be modified to the extent necessary to render it valid and enforceable and as so modified shall be enforced. A determination of invalidity or unenforceability in one jurisdiction shall not invalidate or render unenforceable that provision in any other jurisdiction. If the provision cannot be modified in a manner that renders it valid and enforceable, then the invalidity or unenforceability in one jurisdiction shall have no effect on the validity or enforceability of that provision in any other jurisdiction, and the invalid or unenforceable provision shall be severable from these Terms in that jurisdiction only, without in any way impairing the validity or enforceability of the Terms as a whole or the provision in any other jurisdiction.
If any provision of these Terms is deemed unlawful, void, or for any reason unenforceable, then that provision shall be deemed severable from these Terms and shall not affect the validity and enforceability of the remaining provisions. The headings and section titles in these Terms are for convenience only and have no legal or contractual effect.
Any provisions of these Terms which, by their nature, should survive termination of these Terms shall survive such termination (including, without limitation, all limitations of liability, releases, indemnification obligations, disclaimers of warranties, agreements to arbitrate, choice of law and judicial forum and intellectual property protections and licenses).
