                                                          You assume all responsibility and risk with respect to your use of our website, which is provided “as is” without warranties, representations, or conditions of any kind, either express or implied, with regard to information accessed from, or via our website, including without limitation, all content and materials, and functions and services provided on our website, all of which are provided without warranty of any kind, including but not limited to warranties concerning the availability, accuracy, completeness, or usefulness of content or information, uninterrupted access, and any warranties of title, non-infringement, merchantability, or fitness for a particular purpose. We do not warrant that our website, its functionality, or the content and material of the services made available thereby will be timely, secure, uninterrupted, or error-free, that defects will be corrected, or that our websites or the servers that make our website available are free of viruses or other harmful components.

                                                          The use of our website is at your sole risk and you assume full responsibility for any costs associated with your use of our website. We will not be liable for any damages of any kind related to the use of our website.

                                                          In no event will we, or our affiliates, our or their respective content or service providers, or any of our or their respective directors, officers, agents, contractors, suppliers or employees be liable to you for any direct, indirect, special, incidental, consequential, exemplary, or punitive damages, losses or causes of action, or lost revenue, lost profits, lost business or sales, any computer related damage or loss of data or any other type of damage, whether based in contract or tort (including negligence), strict liability or otherwise, arising from your use of, or the inability to use, or the performance of, our website or the content or material or functionality through our website, even if we are advised of the possibility of such damages. The Society’s maximum liability shall, in no event, exceed the amount paid by the purchaser for the product. This limitation is an essential element of the Agreement between the Society and you.

                                                          Certain jurisdictions do not allow limitation of liability or the exclusion or limitation of certain damages. In such jurisdictions, some or all of the above disclaimers, exclusions, or limitations, may not apply to you and our liability will be limited to the maximum extent permitted by law.

                                                            Indemnification

                                                              You agree to indemnify, defend, and hold harmless the Society, our affiliates, and our and their respective directors, officers, agents, contractors, and employees against any losses, liabilities, claims, expenses (including legal fees) from any action arising from your misuse of this website or the breach of any of the provisions of this Agreement, including but not limited to, any third party claim that any information or materials provided by you infringe upon any third party proprietary rights.

                                                                Entire Agreement

                                                                  The Terms, and any documents expressly referred to in them, represent the entire agreement between you and us in relation to the subject matter of the Terms and supersede any prior agreement, understanding or arrangement between you and us, whether oral or in writing. Both you and we acknowledge that, in entering into these Terms, neither you nor we have relied on any representation, undertaking, or promise given by the other or implied from anything said or written between you and us prior to such Terms, except as expressly stated in the Terms.

                                                                    Waiver

                                                                      Our failure to exercise or enforce any right or provision of the Terms will not constitute a waiver of such right or provision. A waiver by us of any default will not constitute a waiver of any subsequent default. No waiver by us is effective unless it is communicated to you in writing.

                                                                        Headings

                                                                            Severability

                                                                              Should any provision of this Terms of Use be deemed invalid or unenforceable, those provisions shall be severed from the Agreement, but shall not affect the validity of the remaining provisions.

                                                                                Governing Law
