To the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, you will indemnify, defend, and hold harmless SCF and our officers, directors, agents, partners, and employees (individually and collectively, the “SCF Parties”) from and against any losses, liabilities, claims, demands, damages, expenses or costs (“Claims”) arising out of or related to (a) your access to or use of the Site; (b) your Content or Feedback; (c) your violation of these Terms; (d) your violation, misappropriation, or infringement of any rights of another (including intellectual property rights or privacy rights); or (e) your conduct in connection with the Site.

This indemnity is in addition to, and not in lieu of, any other indemnities set forth in a written agreement between you and SCF or the other SCF Parties.

8. Disclaimers

Your use of our Site and any content or materials provided therein or therewith is at your sole risk. Except as otherwise provided in a writing by us and to the fullest extent permitted under applicable law, our Site and any content or materials provided therein or therewith are provided “as is” and “as available” without warranties of any kind, either express or implied. SCF disclaims all warranties with respect to the foregoing, including implied warranties of merchantability, fitness for a particular purpose, title, and non-infringement. In addition, SCF does not represent or warrant that our Site or any content provided therein or therewith are accurate, complete, reliable, current, or error-free or that access to our Site or any content provided therein or therewith will be uninterrupted. While SCF attempts to make your use of our Site and any content provided therein or therewith safe, we cannot and do not represent or warrant that our Site or any content provided therein or therewith or our servers are free of viruses or other harmful components or content or materials. You assume the entire risk as to the quality and performance of the Site and any content provided therein or therewith. All disclaimers of any kind (including in this section and elsewhere in these Terms) are made for the benefit of SCF, SCF Parties, and SCF’s respective shareholders, agents, representatives, licensors, suppliers, and service providers, as well as their respective successors and assigns.

9. Limitation of Liability

(a) To the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, SCF and the other SCF Parties will not be liable to you under any theory of liability—whether based in contract, tort, negligence, strict liability, warranty, or otherwise—for any indirect, consequential, exemplary, incidental, punitive, or special damages or lost profits, even if SCF or the other SCF Parties have been advised of the possibility of such damages.

(b) The total liability of SCF and the other SCF Parties for any claim arising out of or relating to these Terms or our Site, regardless of the form of the action, is limited to $100.

(c) The limitations set forth in this Section 9 will not limit or exclude liability for the gross negligence, fraud, or intentional misconduct of SCF or the other SCF Parties or for any other matters in which liability cannot be excluded or limited under applicable law. Additionally, some jurisdictions do not allow the exclusion or limitation of incidental or consequential damages, so the above limitations or exclusions may not apply to you.

10. Release

To the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, you release SCF and the other SCF Parties from responsibility, liability, claims, demands, and/or damages (actual and consequential) of every kind and nature, known and unknown (including claims of negligence), arising out of or related to disputes between users and the acts or omissions of third parties.

11. Governing Law

Any dispute, claim, or controversy that arises from or relates to these Terms will be governed by and construed and enforced in accordance with the laws of the State of Washington, except to the extent preempted by U.S. Federal Law, without regard to conflict of law rules or principles (whether of the State of Washington or any other jurisdiction) that would cause the application of the laws of any other jurisdiction. The state and federal courts located in the County of King County, Washington, will have exclusive jurisdiction. You and SCF waive any objection to venue in any such courts. If your local law requires that consumer contracts be interpreted subject to local law and enforced in the courts of that jurisdiction, this section may not apply to you only to the extent that local law conflicts with this section.

12. Modifying and Terminating Our Site

We reserve the right to modify our Site or to suspend or terminate providing all or part of our Site at any time. All modifications and additions to the Sites will be governed by the Terms, unless otherwise expressly stated by SCF in writing. You also have the right to stop using our Site at any time, and you may terminate these Terms by ceasing use of our Site. We are not responsible for any loss or harm related to your inability to access or use our Site.

13. Severability

If any portion of these Terms is found to be unenforceable or unlawful for any reason, including but not limited to because it is found to be unconscionable, (a) the unenforceable or unlawful provision will be severed from these Terms; (b) severance of the unenforceable or unlawful provision will have no impact whatsoever on the remainder of these Terms; and (c) the unenforceable or unlawful provision may be revised to the extent required to render the Terms enforceable or valid, and the rights and responsibilities of the parties will be interpreted and enforced accordingly, so as to preserve the Terms and the intent of the Terms to the fullest possible extent.

14. Miscellaneous

(a) SCF’s failure to exercise or enforce any right or provision of these Terms will not operate as a waiver of such right or provision. These Terms reflect the entire agreement between the parties relating to the subject matter hereof and supersede all prior agreements, representations, statements, and understandings of the parties. The section titles in these Terms are for convenience only and have no legal or contractual effect. Use of the word “including” will be interpreted to mean “including without limitation.” Except as otherwise provided herein, these Terms are intended solely for the benefit of the parties and are not intended to confer third-party beneficiary rights upon any other person or entity. Communications and transactions between us may be conducted electronically.
