Feedback is not confidential information of yours.
9. Enforcement
9.1 You acknowledge that any breach or threatened breach of Sections 3, 4, or 5 would cause Humance irreparable harm for which monetary damages would be an inadequate remedy.

11. Disclaimer of Warranties
THE SERVICE AND ALL OUTPUTS ARE PROVIDED "AS IS" AND "AS AVAILABLE," WITHOUT WARRANTY OF ANY KIND, EXPRESS, IMPLIED, OR STATUTORY. TO THE MAXIMUM EXTENT PERMITTED BY LAW, HUMANCE DISCLAIMS ALL WARRANTIES, INCLUDING ANY IMPLIED WARRANTIES OF MERCHANTABILITY, FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE, TITLE, ACCURACY, AND NON-INFRINGEMENT.
WE DO NOT WARRANT THAT THE SERVICE WILL BE UNINTERRUPTED, SECURE, ERROR-FREE, OR THAT ANY OUTPUT WILL BE ACCURATE, COMPLETE, CURRENT, OR RELIABLE.
Some jurisdictions do not allow the exclusion of certain warranties, so some of the above exclusions may not apply to you.
12. Limitation of Liability
TO THE MAXIMUM EXTENT PERMITTED BY LAW, HUMANCE AND ITS OFFICERS, DIRECTORS, EMPLOYEES, CONTRACTORS, AND AGENTS WILL NOT BE LIABLE FOR ANY INDIRECT, INCIDENTAL, SPECIAL, CONSEQUENTIAL, EXEMPLARY, OR PUNITIVE DAMAGES, OR FOR ANY LOSS OF PROFITS, REVENUE, DATA, GOODWILL, BUSINESS INTERRUPTION, OR COST OF SUBSTITUTE SERVICES, ARISING OUT OF OR RELATING TO THESE TERMS OR THE SERVICE, WHETHER BASED IN CONTRACT, TORT, NEGLIGENCE, STRICT LIABILITY, OR OTHERWISE, EVEN IF ADVISED OF THE POSSIBILITY OF SUCH DAMAGES.
OUR TOTAL AGGREGATE LIABILITY ARISING OUT OF OR RELATING TO THESE TERMS OR THE SERVICE WILL NOT EXCEED THE GREATER OF (A) THE AMOUNTS YOU PAID US FOR THE SERVICE IN THE TWELVE (12) MONTHS PRECEDING THE EVENT GIVING RISE TO THE CLAIM, OR (B) ONE HUNDRED U.S. DOLLARS ($100).
These limitations apply even if a limited remedy fails of its essential purpose. Some jurisdictions do not allow certain limitations of liability, so some of the above may not apply to you.
13. Indemnification
You agree to defend, indemnify, and hold harmless Humance and its officers, directors, employees, and agents from and against any claims, liabilities, damages, losses, and expenses, including reasonable attorneys' fees, arising out of or connected with (a) your use of the Service, (b) Your Content, (c) your breach of these Terms, including any unauthorized copying, disclosure, or use of the Humance Materials, or (d) your violation of any law or third-party right.
14. General Terms

14.5 Entire agreement. These Terms, together with the Data and Privacy Policy, constitute the entire agreement between you and Humance regarding the Service and supersede all prior agreements and understandings.
14.6 Severability. If any provision is held unenforceable, that provision will be limited or severed to the minimum extent necessary, and the remaining provisions will remain in full force.
14.7 No waiver. Our failure to enforce any provision is not a waiver of our right to do so later.
14.8 Assignment. You may not assign or transfer these Terms without our prior written consent. We may assign these Terms freely, including in connection with a merger, acquisition, or sale of assets.
14.9 Force majeure. We are not liable for any delay or failure to perform caused by events beyond our reasonable control.
