14. Celeratec as Licensor.

Celeratec is acting only as a reseller or licensor of the hardware, software and equipment used in connection with the products and/or Services that were or are manufactured or provided by a third party (“Non-Celeratec Product”). Celeratec shall not be responsible for any changes in the Services that cause the Non-Celeratec Product to become obsolete, require modification or alteration, or otherwise affect the performance of the Services. Any malfunction or manufacturer’s defects of Non-Celeratec Product either sold, licensed or provided by Celeratec to Client or purchased directly by Client used in connection with the Services will not be deemed a breach of Celeratec’s obligations under the Order. Any rights or remedies Client may have regarding the ownership, licensing, performance or compliance of Non-Celeratec Product are limited to those rights extended to Client by the manufacturer of such Non- Celeratec Product. Client is entitled to use any Non-Celeratec Product supplied by Celeratec only in connection with Client’s permitted use of the Services.

17. Mutual Confidentiality.

Celeratec and Client agree that all information, data, codes, processes, technology, and all communications between Celeratec and Client shall be deemed “Proprietary” to the party providing or transmitting the same, even if created by a third party.

18. Spam/Security Filters.

Celeratec’s Services include privacy and security protocols that guard against malware, spyware, harmful programs and attachments, trojan horses, ransomware, and similar malicious viruses, programs and code that can harm computer systems. While Celeratec employs some of the most advanced protocols, there are no guarantees that all such activity and threats can or will be stopped. In addition, the use of filtering technology may prevent, block or re-direct communications, transmissions, emails and attachments from customer or accounts that are not intended by Client to be blocked or prevented. Celeratec is not liable or responsible to Client if communications and transmissions are blocked or re-directed. Client is required to periodically check with customers and third parties to verify receipt or transmission of communications and transmissions. If Client determines that communications or transmissions are being blocked or diverted, and Client desires to receive or send such communications or transmissions, Client shall provide written notice to Celeratec to adjust the filters to allow for the successful transmission or receipt; provided, however, Client will be solely liable for the consequences, if any, of changes to the filter that allow such transmissions.

19. Account Backups.

Celeratec encourages all Clients to periodically perform their own backups. For a fee, Celeratec will perform regular automated data backups. These backups are intended for disaster recovery purposes only, and are not intended for regular Client use. While Celeratec maintains the previously stated backups, this service is provided as a convenience only and Celeratec assumes no liability as to the availability or completeness of client data backups. Each client is expected and encouraged to maintain backup copies of their own data. Data restores may be provided but are subject to additional service fees of up to $500.00/restoration. Upon cancellation or suspension of Services for nonpayment, all data will be purged from the server.

20. Disclaimers of Warranty.

Celeratec makes no warranty that the services will not be interrupted or error free; nor does it make any warranties as to the results that may be obtained from the use of the Services or as to the accuracy, reliability or content of any information or merchandise contained in or provided through the Services.

No oral advice or written information given by Celeratec, will create a warranty; nor may you rely on any such information or advice. The terms of this section shall survive any termination of the Order.

21. Limitation of Liability.

In no event will Celeratec’s liability in connection with the Services or any order, whether caused by failure to deliver, non- performance, defects, breach of warranty or otherwise, exceed the aggregate service fees paid to Celeratec by Client during the 6-month period immediately preceding the event giving rise to such liability.

However, the limitations contained in this Section shall not apply to Client’s indemnification obligations.

The terms of this section shall survive any termination.

23. Jury Waiver.

Each of Client and Celeratec agree that any and all disputes shall be resolved by a judge only, and not by a jury. Each of Client and Celeratec expressly, voluntarily and intentionally waives its right to a jury trial as to any dispute between or involving them. By so agreeing, the parties intend for any lawsuit to be resolved quickly and without undue exposure to the public. Each party agrees to make good faith efforts to redact sensitive information or data, or to file such documents in such manner as to protect confidentiality.
