OUR RESPONSIBILITY FOR LOSS OR DAMAGE SUFFERED BY YOU

We are responsible to you for foreseeable loss and damage caused by us. If we fail to comply with these terms, we are responsible for loss or damage you suffer that is a foreseeable result of our breaking these terms or our failing to use reasonable care and skill, but we are not responsible for any loss or damage that is not foreseeable. Loss or damage is foreseeable if either it is obvious that it will happen or if, at the time you accepted these terms, both we and you knew it might happen.

We do not exclude or limit in any way our liability to you where it would be unlawful to do so. This includes things that no one is allowed to restrict their liability for by law. It includes liability for death or personal injury caused by our negligence or where that death or personal injury is caused by the negligence of our employees, agents or subcontractors or for where we commit fraud or fraudulent misrepresentation.

When we are liable for damage to your property. In the very unlikely event that defective digital content that we have supplied actually damages a device or digital content belonging to you, we will either repair the damage or pay you compensation. However, we will not be liable for damage that you could have avoided by following our advice to apply an update offered to you free of charge or for damage that was caused by you failing to correctly follow installation instructions or to have in place the minimum system requirements advised by us.

We are not liable for business losses. As an End-User the Apps are for your own personal, domestic and private use. If you use the Apps for any commercial, business or resale purpose we will have no liability to you for any loss of profit, loss of business, business interruption, or loss of business opportunity unless expressly agreed in another agreement with you or your employer.

Limitations to the App and the Services. The App and the Services are provided for the purposes of your personal and private use only. Though we strive to create services that provide as accurate an analysis as possible of any data or input you provide the Apps do not offer advice on which you should solely rely. We strongly recommend that you obtain professional or specialist advice before taking, or refraining from, any serious action on the basis of information obtained from the Apps or the Service. Although we make reasonable efforts to update the information provided by the App and the Service, we make no representations, warranties or guarantees, whether express or implied, that such information is accurate, complete or up to date.

Please back-up content and data used with the App. We recommend that you back up any content and data used in connection with the App, to protect yourself in case of problems with the App or the Service.

Check that the Apps and the Services are suitable for you. The Apps and the Services are out of the box standard products designed to provide a specific end that we have designed and the Apps have not been developed to meet your individual or other specific requirements. Please check that the facilities and functions of the Apps and the Services (as described on the relevant app store or market site and in the Documentation) meet your requirements before you download or use them.

We are not responsible for events outside our control. If our provision of the Services or support for the Apps or the Services is delayed or prevented by an event outside our control, we will contact you as soon as possible to let you know and we will take steps to minimise the effect of the delay. Provided we do this we will not be liable for delays caused by the event.

WE MAY END YOUR RIGHTS TO USE THE APPS AND THE SERVICES IF YOU BREAK THESE TERMS

We may end your rights to use the Apps and Services at any time by contacting you if you have broken these terms, or the terms and conditions or other rules imposed on you by your employers or any other third parties we work within a serious way. If what you have done can be put right we may give you a reasonable opportunity to do so, but we will always reserve the right to terminate your access to the Services.

If we end your rights to use the Apps and Services:

  • You must stop all activities authorised by these terms, including your use of the Apps and any Services.
  • You must delete or remove the Apps from all devices in your possession and immediately destroy all copies of the Apps which you have and confirm to us that you have done this.
  • We may remotely access your devices and remove the Apps from them and cease providing you with access to the Services.

WE MAY TRANSFER THIS AGREEMENT TO SOMEONE ELSE

We may transfer our rights and obligations under these terms to another organisation. We will always tell you in writing if this happens and we will ensure that the transfer will not affect your rights under the contract.

YOU NEED OUR CONSENT TO TRANSFER YOUR RIGHTS TO SOMEONE ELSE

You may only transfer your rights or your obligations under these terms to another person if we agree in writing.

NO RIGHTS FOR THIRD PARTIES

This agreement does not give rise to any rights under the Contracts (Rights of Third Parties) Act 1999 to enforce any term of this agreement.

IF A COURT FINDS PART OF THIS CONTRACT ILLEGAL, THE REST WILL CONTINUE IN FORCE

Each of the paragraphs of these terms operates separately. If any court or relevant authority decides that any of them are unlawful, the remaining paragraphs will remain in full force and effect.

EVEN IF WE DELAY IN ENFORCING THIS CONTRACT, WE CAN STILL ENFORCE IT LATER

Even if we delay in enforcing this contract, we can still enforce it later. If we do not insist immediately that you do anything you are required to do under these terms, or if we delay in taking steps against you in respect of your breaking this contract, that will not mean that you do not have to do those things and it will not prevent us taking steps against you at a later date.

WHICH LAWS APPLY TO THIS CONTRACT AND WHERE YOU MAY BRING LEGAL PROCEEDINGS

These terms are governed by English law and you can bring legal proceedings in respect of the products in the English courts. If you live in Scotland you can bring legal proceedings in respect of the products in either the Scottish or the English courts. If you live in Northern Ireland you can bring legal proceedings in respect of the products in either the Northern Irish or the English courts.

ALTERNATIVE DISPUTE RESOLUTION

Alternative dispute resolution is a process where an independent body considers the facts of a dispute and seeks to resolve it, without you having to go to court. If you are not happy with how we have handled any complaint, you may want to contact the Centre for Effective Dispute Resolution (CEDR) to begin the Model Mediation Procedure. Unless otherwise agreed between the parties within 14 working days of notice of the dispute, the mediator will be nominated by CEDR. In addition, please note that disputes may be submitted for online resolution to the European Commission Online Dispute Resolution platform
