If you are interested in doing anything different than the foregoing, you must first obtain WineFetch's written consent. If you fail to do so, WineFetch reserves the right to take legal action.

Furthermore, you may not use WineFetch Web APIs in any manner that either directly or indirectly violates any laws or proprietary rights. This includes laws and proprietary rights in the United States as well as in other countries.

Publicity

So long as you comply with your obligations under this Agreement, you may indicate that a product or service that you created either used or is based on WineFetch Web APIs provided that those products or services do not in WineFetch's reasonable opinion (1) tarnish, infringe, or dilute WineFetch's trademarks, (2) violate any applicable law, and (3) infringe any third-party rights. If you wish to use the WineFetch trademark and/or logo in any other manner, you must first obtain WineFetch's written consent.

Disclaimer of warranties

The WineFetch Web APIs service is currently in beta form and has not been fully tested or debugged. Accordingly, WineFetch disclaims any responsibility for any harm resulting from your use of WineFetch Web APIs.

The WineFetch Web APIs service is provided "as is," with no warranties whatsoever. WineFetch expressly disclaims to the fullest extent permitted by law all express, implied, and statutory warranties, including, without limitation, the warranties of merchantability, fitness for a particular purpose, and non-infringement of proprietary rights. WineFetch disclaims any warranties regarding the security, reliability, timeliness, availability, and performance of WineFetch Web APIs.

You understand and agree that you use WineFetch Web APIs at your own discretion and risk and that you will be solely responsible for any damages to your computer system or loss of data that results from the download or use of WineFetch Web APIs.

Some states or other jurisdictions do not allow the exclusion of implied warranties, so the above exclusions may not apply to you. You may also have other rights that vary from state to state and jurisdiction to jurisdiction.

Limitation of liability

The WineFetch Web APIs service is being provided free of charge. Accordingly, you agree that WineFetch shall have no liability arising from or based on your use of WineFetch Web APIs.

Under no circumstances shall WineFetch be liable to any user on account of that user's use or misuse of WineFetch Web APIs. Such limitation of liability shall apply to prevent recovery of direct, indirect, incidental, consequential, special, exemplary, and punitive damages whether such claim is based on warranty, contract, tort (including negligence), or otherwise, even if WineFetch has been advised of the possibility of such damages). Such limitation of liability shall apply whether the damages arise from use or misuse of and reliance on the WineFetch Web APIs, from inability to use WineFetch Web APIs, or from the interruption, suspension, or termination of WineFetch Web APIs (including such damages incurred by third parties). Such limitation shall apply notwithstanding a failure of essential purpose of any limited remedy and to the fullest extent permitted by law.

Some states or other jurisdictions do not allow the exclusion or limitation of liability for incidental or consequential damages, so the above limitations and exclusions may not apply to you.

Indemnification

You hereby agree to indemnify, defend and hold WineFetch, and its officers, directors, agents, licensors and licensees (collectively, the "Indemnified Parties") harmless from and against any and all liability and costs incurred by the Indemnified Parties in connection with any claim arising out of your use of WineFetch Web APIs, including, without limitation, reasonable attorneys' fees. You shall cooperate as fully as reasonably required in the defense of any claim. WineFetch reserves the right, at its own expense, to assume the exclusive defense and control of any matter subject to indemnification by you.

WineFetch's search service

The WineFetch Web APIs service is designed to be used in conjunction with WineFetch's search services. Accordingly, your use of WineFetch Web APIs is also defined by WineFetch's Terms of Service and Privacy Policy. In the event of a conflict between these Terms and Conditions and WineFetch's Terms of Service, these Terms and Conditions shall prevail.

In such a case, you must delete any search result information that you may have obtained from the WineFetch Web APIs service. WineFetch may terminate this Agreement (and your account) at any time, with or without cause.

Any dispute arising from these Terms and Conditions shall be adjudicated in the federal or state courts located in Santa Clara County, California. If for any reason a court of competent jurisdiction finds any provision or portion of these Terms and Conditions to be unenforceable, the remainder of these Terms and Conditions will continue in full force and effect. These Terms and Conditions constitute the entire agreement between the parties with respect to the subject matter hereof and supersede and replace all prior or contemporaneous understandings or agreements, written or oral, regarding such subject matter.
