The iWineDb Services, and all materials, information, products and services included in the Services are provided "as is," with no warranties whatsoever. iWineDb and its licensors expressly disclaim to the fullest extent permitted by law all express, implied, and statutory warranties, including, without limitation, the warranties of merchantability, fitness for a particular purpose, and non-infringement of proprietary rights. iWineDb and its licensors disclaim any warranties regarding the security, reliability, timeliness, and performance of the Services. iWineDb and its licensors disclaim, any warranties for any information or advice obtained through the Services. iWineDb and its licensors disclaim any warranties for services or goods received through or advertised on the Services or received through any links provided by the Services, as well as for any information or advice received through any links provided in the Services.

 

Some states or other jurisdictions do not allow the exclusion of implied warranties, so the above exclusions may not apply to you. In such jurisdictions, the disclaimer of warranties of the Company, third party content providers, or their respective agents shall be limited or disclaimed to the greatest extent permitted by law. You may also have other rights that vary from state to state and jurisdiction to jurisdiction.

 

Limitation of Liability

Under no circumstances shall iWineDb be liable to any user on account of that user's use or misuse of or reliance on iWineDb Services. Arising from any claim relating to this agreement or the subject matter hereof such limitation of liability shall apply to prevent recovery of direct, indirect, incidental, consequential, special, exemplary, and punitive damages whether such claim is based on warranty, contract, tort (including negligence), or otherwise, (even if iWineDb or its licensors have been advised of the possibility of such damages). Such limitation of liability shall apply whether the damages arise from use or misuse of and reliance on Services, from inability to use Services, or from the interruption, suspension, or termination of Services (including such damages incurred by third parties). This limitation shall also apply with respect to damages incurred by reason of other services or goods received through or advertised on Services or received through any links provided in Services, as well as by reason of any information or advice received through or advertised on Services or received through any links provided in Services. This limitation shall also apply, without limitation, to the costs of procurement of substitute goods or services, lost profits, or lost data. Such limitation shall further apply with respect to the performance or non-performance of Services or any information or merchandise that appears on, or is linked or related in any way to, Services. Such limitation shall apply notwithstanding any failure of essential purpose of any limited remedy and to the fullest extent permitted by law.

 

Some states or other jurisdictions do not allow the exclusion or limitation of liability for incidental or consequential damages, so the above limitations and exclusions may not apply to you. In such jurisdictions, the liability of the Company, third party content providers, or their respective agents shall be limited to the greatest extent permitted by law.

 

Without limiting the foregoing, under no circumstances shall iWineDb or its licensors be held liable for any delay or failure in performance resulting directly or indirectly from acts of nature, forces, or causes beyond its reasonable control.

 

Indemnity

You agree to indemnify and hold harmless the Company and its employees, officers, directors, owners, agents, information providers and licensors, to the fullest extent lawful, from and against all loss, liability, claim, damage, cost, judgment, penalty and expense (including attorneys' fees), promptly as incurred, directly or indirectly based upon, or arising out of or in connection with (1) your violation of the Terms or (2) any use or alleged use of the Service under your password by you or any person, whether or not authorized by you. The Company reserves the right to assume the exclusive defense and control of any matter otherwise subject to indemnification by you, and in such case, you agree to cooperate with the Company's defense of such claim and to reimburse the Company for the costs and expenses of such defense.

 

Miscellaneous Provisions

These Terms will be governed by and construed in accordance with the laws of the State of Georgia, without giving effect to its conflict of laws provisions or your actual state or country of residence. If for any reason a court of competent jurisdiction finds any provision or portion of the Terms to be unenforceable, the remainder of the Terms will continue in full force and effect.

 

These Terms constitute the entire agreement between the parties with respect to the subject matter hereof and supersedes and replaces all prior or contemporaneous understandings or agreements, written or oral, regarding such subject matter. Any waiver of any provision of the Terms will be effective only if in writing and signed by iWineDb. The rights and obligations provided herein may not be assigned or delegated. If any inconsistency exists between the terms of these Terms and any additional terms and conditions posted on the Service, such terms shall be interpreted as to eliminate any inconsistency, if possible, and otherwise, the additional terms and conditions shall control.
