Limitations on Liability

YOUR SOLE AND EXCLUSIVE REMEDY FOR ANY DISPUTE WITH US IS THE CANCELLATION OF YOUR LICENSE. IN NO EVENT SHALL OUR TOTAL CUMULATIVE LIABILITY TO YOU FOR ANY AND ALL CLAIMS RELATING TO OR ARISING OUT OF YOUR USE OF THE SOFTWARE, REGARDLESS OF THE FORM OF ACTION, EXCEED THE GREATER OF: (A) THE PURCHASE PRICE OF THE SOFTWARE, IF ANY (MAXIMUM BEING THE LESSER OF THE AMOUNT PAID BY YOU AND THE SUGGESTED RETAIL PRICE AS LISTED BY GRIDHOUR), OR (B) FIFTY US DOLLARS ($50). IN NO EVENT SHALL WE BE LIABLE TO YOU (OR TO ANY THIRD PARTY CLAIMING UNDER OR THROUGH YOU) FOR ANY DIRECT, INDIRECT, SPECIAL, INCIDENTAL, CONSEQUENTIAL, PUNITIVE OR EXEMPLARY DAMAGES OR ANY BODILY INJURY, EMOTIONAL DISTRESS, DEATH OR ANY OTHER DAMAGES ARISING FROM YOUR USE OF OR INABILITY TO USE THE SOFTWARE, WHETHER ON-LINE OR OFF-LINE, OR OTHERWISE IN CONNECTION WITH THE SOFTWARE.

IF YOU ARE A CALIFORNIA RESIDENT, YOU WAIVE YOUR RIGHTS WITH RESPECT TO CALIFORNIA CIVIL CODE SECTION 1542, WHICH SAYS “A GENERAL RELEASE DOES NOT EXTEND TO CLAIMS WHICH THE CREDITOR DOES NOT KNOW OR SUSPECT TO EXIST IN HIS FAVOR AT THE TIME OF EXECUTING THE RELEASE, WHICH, IF KNOWN BY HIM MUST HAVE MATERIALLY AFFECTED HIS SETTLEMENT WITH THE DEBTOR.”

You agree to hold harmless and indemnify Gridhour, and its subsidiaries, affiliates, resellers, officers, agents, employees, advertisers, licensors, suppliers or partners from and against any third party claim arising from or in any way related to (a) Your breach of the EULA, (b) Your use of the Software, or © Your violation of applicable laws, rules or regulations in connection with the Software, including any liability or expense arising from all claims, losses, damages (actual and consequential), suits, judgments, litigation costs and attorney's’ fees, of every kind and nature. In such a case, Gridhour will provide You with written notice of such claim, suit or action.

Termination

This EULA agreement is effective from the date you first use the Software and shall continue until terminated. You may terminate it at any time upon written notice to Gridhour.

It will also terminate immediately if you fail to comply with any term of this EULA agreement. Upon such termination, the licenses granted by this EULA agreement will immediately terminate and you agree to stop all access and use of the Software. The provisions that by their nature continue and survive will survive any termination of this EULA agreement.

Choice of Law and Dispute Resolution

In the event of any controversy or dispute between Gridhour and You arising out of or in connection with your use of the Software (such as our website, blog, etc.) provided by Gridhour, the parties shall attempt, promptly, in good faith and before any judicial action, to resolve the dispute through alternative dispute resolution.

The End-User License Agreement shall be deemed to have been entered into and shall be construed and enforced in accordance with the laws of the United States, without giving effect to any conflicts of law statutes. Any controversy, dispute or claim arising out of or related to the EULA, the Privacy Policy or the Software will be governed by the laws of the United States and be settled in the courts of the United States. Any and all disputes that You may have with Gridhour shall be resolved individually, without resort to any form of class action.

General Legal Terms

If any part of the terms is held invalid or unenforceable, that portion shall be construed in a manner consistent with applicable law to reflect, as nearly as possible, the original intentions of the parties, and the remaining portions shall remain in full force and effect.

The failure of Gridhour to exercise or enforce any right or provision of the terms shall not constitute a waiver of such right or provision. The failure of either party to exercise in any respect any right provided for herein shall not be deemed a waiver of any further rights hereunder.

You agree that if Gridhour does not exercise or enforce any legal right or remedy which is contained in the terms (or which Gridhour has the benefit of under any applicable law), this will not be taken to be a formal waiver of Gridhour’s rights and that those rights or remedies will still be available to Gridhour.

Gridhour shall not be liable for failing or delaying performance of its obligations resulting from any condition beyond its reasonable control, including but not limited to, governmental action, acts of terrorism, earthquake, fire, flood or other acts of God, labor conditions, power failures, and Internet disturbances.

We may assign this contract at any time to any parent, subsidiary, or any affiliated company, or as part of the sale to, merger with, or other transfer of our company to another entity.
