IV. DISCLAIMERS AND LIMITATION OF LIABILITY

 

(a) No Express or Implied Warranties

 

TO THE FULLEST EXTENT PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE LAW, USE OF THE GECP SITE AND SITE CONTENT IS AT YOUR OWN RISK AND THE GECP SITE IS PROVIDED “AS IS,” WITHOUT WARRANTY OF ANY KIND, EITHER EXPRESS OR IMPLIED. NEITHER GECP, ITS AFFILIATES OR THIRD PARTY SERVICE PROVIDERS, NOR ANY OF THEIR RESPECTIVE DIRECTORS, OFFICERS, EMPLOYEES, AGENTS OR OTHER REPRESENTATIVES (COLLECTIVELY, INCLUDING GECP, THE “GECP PARTIES”), MAKES ANY WARRANTY WHATSOEVER, EXPRESS, IMPLIED OR STATUTORY, INCLUDING WITHOUT LIMITATION WARRANTIES OF MERCHANTABILITY, FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE, TITLE, SECURITY, ACCURACY OR NON-INFRINGEMENT, OR THAT THE GECP SITE WILL BE UNINTERRUPTED OR ERROR FREE; NOR DO THEY MAKE ANY WARRANTY AS TO THE RESULTS THAT MAY BE OBTAINED FROM USE OF THE GECP SITE OR AS TO THE ACCURACY, RELIABILITY, QUALITY OR CONTENT OF ANY INFORMATION OR SERVICE PROVIDED ON OR THROUGH THE GECP SITE.

 

(b) Limitation of Liability

 

TO THE EXTENT PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE LAW, THE GECP PARTIES WILL NOT BE LIABLE FOR ANY DIRECT, INDIRECT, SPECIAL, INCIDENTAL, CONSEQUENTIAL, EXEMPLARY OR PUNITIVE DAMAGES OF ANY KIND ARISING OUT OF OR RELATED TO THE USE OF OR INABILITY TO USE THE GECP SITE, OR THE BREACH OF ANY REPRESENTATION OR WARRANTY, WHETHER AS A BREACH OF CONTRACT, TORTIOUS BEHAVIOR, NEGLIGENCE OR ANY OTHER CAUSE OF ACTION, EVEN IF ADVISED OF THE POSSIBILITY OF SUCH DAMAGES. THIS LIMITATION OF LIABILITY APPLIES, WITHOUT LIMITATION, TO ANY INJURY OR DAMAGE OF ANY KIND, INCLUDING TO YOUR COMPUTER EQUIPMENT OR OTHER PROPERTY, RESULTING FROM ANY MISTAKES, INTERRUPTION, OMISSION, DELETION OR OTHER DATA LOSS, DEFECT, DELAY IN OPERATION OR TRANSMISSION, FAILURE OF PERFORMANCE, COMPUTER VIRUS, FILE CORRUPTION, NETWORK OR SYSTEM OUTAGE, COMMUNICATION-LINE FAILURE, BROWSING, DOWNLOAD OF ANY MATERIALS, DATA, TEXT, IMAGES, VIDEO OR AUDIO, OR THEFT, DESTRUCTION, UNAUTHORIZED ACCESS TO, ALTERATION OF, OR USE OF ANY RECORD. GECP SHALL NOT BE LIABLE FOR THIRD PARTY CLAIMS FOR DAMAGES AGAINST THE USER, OR FOR MALFUNCTION, DELAYS, INTERRUPTION OF SERVICE, LOSS OF BUSINESS, OR OTHER CLAIMS, LOSSES OR DAMAGES OF ANY KIND, WHETHER OR NOT GECP HAS BEEN MADE AWARE OF THE POSSIBILITY OF SUCH CLAIMS, LOSSES OR DAMAGES.

 

Because some states or jurisdictions do not allow the exclusion or the limitation of liability for consequential or incidental damages, in such states or jurisdictions the above limitations and exclusions may not apply to you. In such states or jurisdictions the GECP Parties’ liability is limited to the extent permitted by law, thereby minimizing the GECP Parties’ liability to you to the lowest amount permitted by applicable law. In no event shall our total liability to you for all damages, losses and causes of action exceed the amount paid by you, if any, for accessing this website.

 

As consideration for access to the GECP Site, you agree to indemnify and hold the GECP Parties harmless from and against any damages, losses, liabilities, settlements, and expenses (including without limitation costs and reasonable attorneys’ fees) in connection with any claim or action including but not limited to actions by third parties against you or any of the GECP Parties (i) arising from any alleged breach by you of these Terms of Use or any representations, warranties and/or covenants contained herein, (ii) out of or in connection with any decisions that you make based on the information or materials contained on the GECP Site or (iii) otherwise arising from or relating to your use of the GECP Site, or your violation of the GECP Site policies.
