Customer may not refuse any Modification to the Systems performed by SYYCLOPS, provided, however, that in the event such Modification could reasonably be expected to have a material adverse effect on Customer’s business or operations taken as a whole (a “Material Adverse Effect”), Customer may, within ten (10) days of such Modification taking effect, provide written notice to SYYCLOPS describing in reasonable detail the Material Adverse Effect caused by such Modification. SYYCLOPS shall then have ten (10) days from receipt of such notice to take any action SYYCLOPS deems reasonably necessary in respect of such Modification to eliminate or render immaterial such Material Adverse Effect, failing which Customer may terminate the relevant exhibit upon written notice to SYYCLOPS. Customer’s right of termination shall be Customer’s only remedy in connection with any Modification hereunder. These modifications shall not affect the client side without prior notification.
Limited Warranty: SYYCLOPS warrants that, for a period of sixty (60) days from the purchase date (“Warranty Period”), the Software licensed hereunder will perform substantially in accordance with the Documentation (the “Limited Warranty”).
UNLESS OTHERWISE EXPLICITLY AGREED TO IN WRITING BY SYYCLOPS, SYYCLOPS MAKES NO OTHER WARRANTIES, EXPRESS OR IMPLIED, IN FACT OR IN LAW, INCLUDING, BUT NOT LIMITED TO, ANY IMPLIED WARRANTIES OF MERCHANTABILITY OR FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE OTHER THAN AS SET FORTH IN THIS AGREEMENT OR IN THE LIMITED WARRANTY DOCUMENTS PROVIDED WITH THE SOFTWARE PRODUCT.
SYYCLOPS makes no warranty that the Software Product will meet your requirements or operate under your specific conditions of use. SYYCLOPS makes no warranty that operation of the Software Product will be secure, error free, or free from interruption. You must determine whether the software product sufficiently meets your requirements for security and uninterruptability. You bear sole responsibility and all liability for any loss incurred due to failure of the software product to meet your requirements. SYYCLOPS will not, under any circumstances, be responsible or liable for the loss of data on any computer or information storage device. Under no circumstances shall SYYCLOPS, its directors, officers, employees or agents be liable to you or any other party for indirect, consequential, special, incidental, punitive, or exemplary damages of any kind (including lost revenues or profits or loss of business) resulting from this agreement, or from the furnishing, performance, installation, or use of the software product, whether due to a breach of contract, breach of warranty, or the negligence of SYYCLOPS or any other party, even if SYYCLOPS is advised beforehand of the possibility of such damages. To the extent that the applicable jurisdiction limits SYYCLOPS’s ability to disclaim any implied warranties, this disclaimer shall be effective to the maximum extent permitted.
Any claim must be made within the applicable warranty period. All warranties cover only defects arising under normal use and do not include malfunctions or failure resulting from misuse, abuse, neglect, alteration, problems with electrical power, acts of nature, unusual temperatures or humidity, improper installation, or damage determined by SYYCLOPS to have been caused by you. All limited warranties on the Software Product are granted only to you and are nontransferable. You agree to indemnify and hold SYYCLOPS harmless from all claims, judgments, liabilities, expenses, or costs arising from your breach of this Agreement and/or acts or omissions.
Regardless of whether the claim for such damages is based in contract, tort and/or any other legal theory, in no event shall either party’s aggregate liability to the other party for direct damages under this agreement or in connection with its subject matter exceed the amount of total fees paid or payable by you for the software giving rise to such claim during the 12 months immediately preceding the event giving rise to such claim.
No provision of this Agreement shall exclude or limit in any way (i) the liability of either party for death or personal injury caused by negligence or (ii) your liability for excess usage of and/or any breach of SYYCLOPS’s intellectual property rights in the Software.
The limitation of liability in this section is based on the fact that end users use their Computers for different purposes. Therefore, only you can implement back-up plans and safeguards appropriate to your needs in the event that an error in the software causes computer problems and related data losses. For these business reasons, you agree to the limitations of liability in this section and acknowledge that without your agreement to this provision, the fee charged for the software would be higher.
Except for actions for non-payment or breach of SYYCLOPS’s proprietary rights in the Software and Documentation, no action, regardless of form, arising out of this Agreement may be brought by either party more than two (2) years after a party knew or should have known of the claim.
Many of our clients choose to communicate with us by email, and we may use email in connection with this engagement unless you direct us otherwise. We will use reasonable precautions to protect your confidential information, but we have no obligation to employ any measures that you do not regularly employ in protecting your confidential information. As emails can be intercepted and read, disclosed, or otherwise used or communicated by an unintended third party, or may not be delivered to each of the parties to whom they are directed, we cannot guarantee or warrant that email from us will be properly delivered and read only by the addressee. Therefore, we specifically disclaim any liability or responsibility whatsoever for interception or unintentional disclosure or communication of email transmissions, or for the unauthorized use or failed delivery of emails transmitted by us in connection with the performance of this engagement, or the disclosure or communication of confidential or proprietary information arising therefrom (hereinafter collectively referred to as “Email Interruption”). You agree that we shall have no liability for any loss or damage to any person or entity resulting from or related to any Email Interruption, including any consequential, incidental, direct, indirect, or special damages, such as loss of revenues or anticipated profits, and you hereby forever release us from any such liability and shall indemnify us from any claim related thereto.
