6. WARRANTIES
6.1. Warranties. DeviceAtlas warrants to Licensee that DeviceAtlas is entitled to supply the Services; that any API provided directly by DeviceAtlas will operate materially as described in the applicable Documentation current at the time of supply; and that such API has been screened in advance by a reputable virus scanning application for any known viruses. If you have received the Services under an evaluation license, this Clause 6.1 shall not apply to you and in such cases, to the extent permissible by law, the Services are provided to with no warranty whatsoever.
6.2. Disclaimer. Given the nature of the Services and in particular their reliance on content provided by third parties, Licensee agrees that the Services are provided by DeviceAtlas on an "AS IS" basis. Therefore, to the fullest extent permitted by applicable law and except where expressly provided in Clause 6.1, DeviceAtlas disclaims all warranties, express or implied, including without limitation, implied warranties of merchantability, fitness for a particular purpose, compatibility, security, accuracy or infringement in respect of the Services. DeviceAtlas cannot warrant or represent that Licensee’s use of the Services will be uninterrupted or error-free, or that the results obtained will be successful or will satisfy Licensee’s requirements. The verification of the suitability of the Services for Licensee’s requirements has been made by the Licensee during the evaluation phase. Licensee assumes the entire risk as to the results and performance of the Services and the Service Fees payable under this Agreement reflect such assumption of risk by Licensee.
6.3. Reservation of Rights. DeviceAtlas reserves the right to modify, enhance, replace or make additions to the Services or any part thereof in any way whatsoever as DeviceAtlas may in its sole discretion determine provided that such actions or additions do not materially and adversely affect the use of the Services by the Licensee. DeviceAtlas may discontinue, modify or replace the Services in order to comply with any applicable laws, government rules or requirements, requests of law enforcement, or any dispute resolution process or to avoid any liability, civil or criminal, on the part of DeviceAtlas or its affiliates, subsidiaries, officers, directors, or employees.
7. LIMITATION ON LIABILITY
7.1. Maximum Liability. Other than in respect of a breach of Clause 7.3, DeviceAtlas’ total maximum aggregate liability arising out of or in connection with this Agreement, whether in contract, tort (including negligence) or for breach of statutory duty or in any other way, shall in no event exceed the Service Fees paid by the Licensee in the 12-month period immediately preceding the date the liability was incurred. If you have received the Services under an evaluation license, this Clause 7.1 shall not apply to you and in such cases, to the extent permissible by law, the Services are provided to you with no warranty or liability whatsoever.
7.2. Indirect Damages. In no event shall DeviceAtlas nor anyone else involved in creating, supporting, producing, or delivering the Services (including, without limitation, suspending or discontinuing the Services) be liable to Licensee for any economic losses (including, without limitation, website downtime or loss of data, revenues, profits, contracts, equipment, business or anticipated savings or the costs of procuring substitute services), any loss of goodwill or reputation, or any special or indirect or consequential losses whether in contract, tort (including negligence) or for breach of statutory duty or in any other way whether or not such losses were reasonably foreseeable or within the contemplation of the parties at the time of this Agreement.
7.3. Death or Personal Injury. DeviceAtlas’ liability for death or personal injury caused by DeviceAtlas’ negligence or the negligence of DeviceAtlas’ agents is not excluded or limited by this Agreement, even if any other term of this Agreement would otherwise suggest that this might be the case.
7.4. Indemnification. DeviceAtlas shall indemnify Licensee against any damages (including costs) that may be awarded under any final judgement by a court of competent jurisdiction or agreed by DeviceAtlas in final settlement with respect to any claim brought against Licensee that normal operation, possession or use of the Software in accordance with and subject to the terms of this Agreement and the Documentation infringes any patent, copyright, licence or trade secret; provided that DeviceAtlas is immediately notified in writing of the claim; and provided further that DeviceAtlas shall have the exclusive right to control the defence. In no event shall Licensee settle the claim, lawsuit or proceeding without DeviceAtlas’ prior written approval. If, as a result of any claim or litigation, DeviceAtlas or Licensee is permanently enjoined from using the Services by a final, non-appealable decree, DeviceAtlas at its sole option and expense may (i) procure for Licensee the right to continue to use the Services, or (ii) replace or modify the Services so as to settle the claim or litigation. If the settlement or the modification of the Services is not reasonably practical in the sole opinion of DeviceAtlas, after giving due consideration to all factors (including financial expense), DeviceAtlas may discontinue and terminate this Agreement upon written notice to Licensee and shall refund to Licensee any fees paid in advance for Services that shall not be performed based upon the termination. The foregoing states the entire liability of DeviceAtlas with respect to infringement of any patent, copyright, licence or trade secret by the Services or any parts thereof, and Licensee hereby expressly waives any other such liabilities. DeviceAtlas will not be responsible for any amounts arising out of any compromise or settlement made by Licensee without DeviceAtlas’ prior written consent. Licensee shall at its own expense, indemnify defend and hold DeviceAtlas harmless against any claim, liability, loss, injury, damage, cost or expense (including reasonable legal fees) incurred by DeviceAtlas, other licensees or any of DeviceAtlas’ data providers to any third party arising out of or from any use by Licensee of the Services.
7.5. Reasonable Allocation of Risk. The parties acknowledge that this Clauses 6 and 7 represent a reasonable allocation of risk and that, in the absence of these limitations of liability, the terms of this Agreement would be substantially different.
7.6. Loss of Use. In no event shall DeviceAtlas be liable for loss or damages arising out of the use of, or inability to use, the Services or for any loss or damage of any nature caused to any person as a result of Licensee’s use of the Services, even if DeviceAtlas is advised of the possibility of such loss or damages.
7.7. Loss of Access. Since use of and access to the Services depends, in part, on third parties (e.g., telecommunications carriers) whose performance is outside of DeviceAtlas’ control, DeviceAtlas disclaims all liability for loss or damages arising from the failure of the transmission or receipt of data due to (i) causes beyond DeviceAtlas’ reasonable control or (ii) causes which are not reasonably foreseeable by DeviceAtlas, including but not limited to, interruption or failure of communication or digital transmission links and Internet slow-downs or failures.
