B. LIMITATION OF LIABILITY AND INDEMNIFICATION

We are not liable for anything that happens to you that somehow may be connected to your use of the Wound Charts Software. If you use the Wound Charts Software in a way that causes us to be included in litigation, you agree to pay all of our legal fees and costs.

YOU EXPRESSLY UNDERSTAND AND AGREE THAT THE RELEASED PARTIES SHALL NOT BE LIABLE TO YOU OR YOUR PATIENTS FOR ANY DIRECT, INDIRECT, INCIDENTAL, SPECIAL, CONSEQUENTIAL, OR EXEMPLARY DAMAGES, INCLUDING, BUT NOT LIMITED TO, DAMAGES FOR LOSS OF PROFITS, GOODWILL, USE, DATA OR OTHER INTANGIBLE LOSSES (EVEN IF Wound Charts HAS BEEN ADVISED OF THE POSSIBILITY OF SUCH DAMAGES), RESULTING FROM: (I) THE USE OR THE INABILITY TO USE THE Wound Charts SOFTWARE OR THE Wound Charts CONTENT; (II) THE COST OF PROCUREMENT OF SUBSTITUTE GOODS AND SERVICES RESULTING FROM ANY GOODS, DATA, INFORMATION OR SERVICES OBTAINED OR MESSAGES RECEIVED OR TRANSACTIONS ENTERED INTO THROUGH, FROM, OR AS A RESULT OF THE Wound Charts SOFTWARE OR YOUR USE OF THE Wound Charts CONTENT; (III) UNAUTHORIZED ACCESS TO OR ALTERATION OF YOUR TRANSMISSIONS OR DATA; (IV) STATEMENTS OR CONDUCT OF ANY USER OR THIRD PARTY ON THE Wound Charts SOFTWARE; (V) YOUR RELIANCE ON CONTENT MADE AVAILABLE BY US; OR (VI) ANY OTHER MATTER RELATING TO THE Wound Charts SOFTWARE, THE Wound Charts CONTENT, ANY THIRD PARTY SOFTWARE OR SERIVCES, OR YOUR USE OF BROWSER EXTENSIONS. SOME JURISDICTIONS DO NOT ALLOW THE EXCLUSION OF CERTAIN WARRANTIES OR THE LIMITATION OR EXCLUSION OF LIABILITY FOR INCIDENTAL OR CONSEQUENTIAL DAMAGES. ACCORDINGLY, SOME OF THE ABOVE LIMITATIONS IN THIS PARAGRAPH MAY NOT APPLY TO YOU.

TO THE FULLEST EXTENT POSSIBLE BY LAW, OUR MAXIMUM LIABILITY ARISING OUT OF OR IN CONNECTION WITH THE Wound Charts SOFTWARE OR YOUR USE OF Wound Charts CONTENT, REGARDLESS OF THE CAUSE OF ACTION (WHETHER IN CONTRACT, TORT, BREACH OF WARRANTY, OR OTHERWISE), WILL NOT EXCEED $100.

You agree to defend, indemnify, and hold harmless the Released Parties from and against any claims, actions, or demands, including without limitation reasonable legal and accounting fees, alleging or resulting from (i) your use of or reliance on any third-party content, (ii) your use of or reliance on any Wound Charts Content or the use of the Wound Charts Software, (iii) any activity on the Wound Charts Software under your log-in credentials, or (iv) your breach of these Terms of Use. We shall provide notice to you promptly of any such claim, suit, or proceeding.

Arbitration, Class Waiver, and Waiver of Jury Trial

We are located in Puerto Rico, so all disputes must be resolved there. We will use arbitration to resolve any problems, and you cannot join a class action lawsuit or obtain a jury trial for any disputes you have with us related to your use of the Wound Charts Software. These Terms of Use and the relationship between you and Wound Charts shall be governed by the laws of the state of Puerto Rico without regard to its conflict of law provisions. You and Wound Charts agree to submit to the personal and exclusive arbitration of any disputes relating to your use of the Wound Charts Software under the rules of the American Arbitration Association. Any such arbitration, to the extent necessary, shall be conducted in Puerto Rico. You covenant not to sue or bring any other legal action against Wound Charts in any other forum.

You also acknowledge and understand that, with respect to any dispute with the Released Parties arising out of or relating to your use of the Wound Charts Software, these Terms of Use or any other agreement with Wound Charts:

YOU ARE GIVING UP YOUR RIGHT TO HAVE A TRIAL BY JURY; YOU ARE GIVING UP YOUR RIGHT TO SERVE AS A REPRESENTATIVE, AS A PRIVATE ATTORNEY GENERAL, OR IN ANY OTHER REPRESENTATIVE CAPACITY, OR TO PARTICIPATE AS A MEMBER OF A CLASS OF CLAIMANTS, IN ANY LAWSUIT INVOLVING ANY SUCH DISPUTE; AND YOU MUST FILE ANY CLAIM WITHIN ONE (1) YEAR AFTER SUCH CLAIM AROSE OR IT IS FOREVER BARRED. XVI. General Terms; Other Legal Provisions; No SPIFF. These Terms of Use, along with Your Agreement, and any policies applicable to you posted on the Wound Charts website, constitute the entire agreement between the parties with respect to the subject matter hereof, and supersede all previous written or oral agreements between the parties with respect to such subject matter. Our failure to exercise or enforce any right or provision of these Terms of Use shall not constitute a waiver of such right or provision. If any provision of these Terms of Use is found by a court of competent jurisdiction to be invalid, the parties nevertheless agree that the court should endeavor to give effect to the parties’ intentions as reflected in the provision, and the other provisions of these Terms of Use remain in full force and effect. The section titles and annotations in these Terms of Use are for convenience only and have no legal or contractual effect. You acknowledge and agree that You shall not offer any form of bonus income, plans, promotions, or any other form of additional incentives (“SPIFFs”) directly to Wound Charts’s employees, consultants, affiliates or subcontractors.
