NO WARRANTY. Your access to and use of the Site are at your own risk. The Site is

results obtained by using the Site. We do not warrant that the Site is free from bugs, viruses,
errors, or other program limitations, nor do we warrant access to the Internet or any other service
through the Site. Some states and countries do not allow the exclusion of implied warranties, so the

accessing the Site.
-
LIMITATION OF LIABILITY. In no event will we be liable to you for any third party

that your sole remedy against us for loss or damage caused by the Site, regardless of the form of

limited to $500. Some states or jurisdictions do not allow the exclusion or limitation of
incidental, consequential or special damages, or exclusion or limitation of liability for death or
personal injury caused by our negligence, so some of the above limitations may not apply to you. In
that event, recoverable damages will be limited in scope and amount to the least allowable under
applicable law.
