No Warranties/Limitation of Liability

WorldWiseAthlete and its associated sites and services are provided on an "as is," "as available" basis without warranties of any kind. You acknowledge that neither WorldWiseAthlete, the Center for Global Education nor any of their respective affiliates, officers, directors, employees, agents, contractors, suppliers, nor any other party involved in creating, producing or delivering WorldWiseAthlete makes any guaranties or warranties, expressed, implied or statutory, with respect to the services and content or any other matter, including without limitation, warranties regarding the accuracy or completeness of any content, warranties that the services or content will be free of errors or available, or warranties of merchantability or fitness for a particular purpose or infringement of third party rights. WorldWiseAthlete, the Center for Global Education, and such persons shall not be liable to you for any loss, cost, damage, or other injury, of any kind whatsoever, whether in contract, tort (including negligence), or otherwise, arising out of or caused in whole or in part by use or inability to use WorldWiseAthlete or any errors or omissions in the content hereof.

(i)Your use of, or reliance on, any service or content, (ii) WorldWiseAthlete's, the Center for Global Education's or any other person's performance of any obligations under or in connection with this agreement, or (iii) Your purchase and use of any goods or services provided by third parties through WorldWiseAthlete or its associated sites. In no event will WorldWiseAthlete, the Center for Global Education, or any of their respective affiliates, officers, directors, employees, agents, contractors or suppliers be liable to you or any third party for any punitive, consequential, direct, incidental, indirect, special, or similar damages even if advised of the possibility of such damage. All users therefore agree that all access and use of WorldWiseAthlete is the user's own risk. Because some states or jurisdictions do not allow the exclusion or limitation of liability for certain damages, in such states or jurisdictions, the liability of WorldWiseAthlete, The Center for Global Education, and their respective affiliates, officers, directors, employees, agents, contractors, and suppliers shall be limited in accordance with this Agreement to the fullest extent permitted by law. The user specifically waives any and all claims it may have arising out of use of WorldWiseAthlete. Any service for which a separate fee is charged carries with it only the representations and warranties specifically stated attributable to that service.

WorldWiseAthlete, The Center for Global Education, and their respective affiliates, officers, directors, employees, agents, contractors, or other suppliers shall not be liable for any loss, cost, or damage due to causes beyond their control. You understand that neither WorldWiseAthlete nor The Center for Global Education accept any responsibility for security of information transmitted over the Internet.

Without limiting any of the foregoing, if WorldWiseAthlete, The Center for Global Education, or any of their respective affiliates, officers, directors, employees, agents, contractors or suppliers is found liable to you for any claims or matters arising under or in connection with this Agreement, WorldWiseAthlete's, The Center for Global Education's and such parties' aggregate and maximum liability for all such matters and claims in any calendar year shall not exceed the amounts paid by you to WorldWiseAthlete for the specific Service or product giving rise to such liability.

WorldWiseAthlete's Distribution of Third-Party Content

WorldWiseAthlete does not exercise editorial control over third-party content provided, uploaded, published, or distributed by users and other participants in WorldWiseAthlete. In other words, WorldWiseAthlete is merely a distributor, not a publisher, of such content. Such content may contain the views, opinions, statements, offers, and other material of the respective users, suppliers, participants, or authors. WorldWiseAthlete does not endorse, is not responsible for, and makes no representations or warranties regarding, such content or its accuracy, supplier ability or fitness for any particular purpose, and WorldWiseAthlete shall not be liable for any harm resulting from or in connection with reliance on any such content. In addition, WorldWiseAthlete shall not be a party to, or liable in any way for any harm associated with, any transaction between our users and any other user or participant in WorldWiseAthlete. Any products or services offered or sold on or through WorldWiseAthlete by any person other than WorldWiseAthlete are offered or sold subject to terms and conditions solely between our users and such other person or supplier.
