      2. disclose such Confidential Information in whole or in part to any third party, except as expressly permitted by this clause 12.
    3. A party may disclose the other party's Confidential Information to those of its Representatives who need to know such Confidential Information for the Permitted Purpose, provided that:

    4. A party may disclose Confidential Information to the extent such Confidential Information is required to be disclosed by law, by any governmental or other regulatory authority or by a court or other authority of competent jurisdiction provided that, to the extent it is legally permitted to do so, it gives the other party as much notice of the disclosure as possible and, where notice of disclosure is not prohibited and is given in accordance with this clause 12.4, it takes into account the reasonable requests of the other party in relation to the content of the disclosure.

      The Customer shall defend and indemnify Exploitr against claims, actions, proceedings, losses, damages, expenses and costs (including without limitation court costs and reasonable legal fees) made by any third party or suffered or incurred by Exploitr arising out of or in connection with the Customer's breach of this agreement.
  13. Limitation of liability
    1. Except as expressly and specifically provided in this agreement:
      1. the Customer assumes sole responsibility for results obtained from the use of the Services and the Documentation (including, but not limited to, the Output Data) by the Customer, and for conclusions drawn from such use. Exploitr shall have no liability for any damage caused by errors or omissions in any Customer Data, information, instructions or scripts provided to Exploitr by the Customer in connection with the Services, or any actions taken by Exploitr at the Customer's direction;
      2. all warranties, representations, conditions and all other terms of any kind whatsoever implied by statute or common law are, to the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, excluded from this agreement; and
      3. the Services, the Documentation and the Output Data are provided to the Customer on an "as is" basis. In particular, whilst Exploitr does endeavour to maintain the accuracy and quality of the Service and the Output Data, information contained may be incorrect or out of date. Therefore, any use of the Service and/or the Output Data is at the Customer's own risk.
    2. Nothing in this agreement excludes the liability of Exploitr:
      1. for death or personal injury caused by Exploitr's negligence; or
      2. for fraud or fraudulent misrepresentation.
    3. Subject to clause 14.1 and clause 14.2:
      1. Exploitr shall have no liability for any:
        1. loss of profits,
        2. loss of business,
        3. wasted expenditure,
        4. depletion of goodwill and/or similar losses,
        5. loss or corruption of data or information, or
        6. any special, indirect or consequential loss, costs, damages, charges or expenses; and
      2. Exploitr's total aggregate liability to the Customer, in respect of all breaches of duty occurring within any contract year shall not exceed the cap. If breaches committed in more than one contract year give rise to a single claim or a series of connected claims, Exploitr's total liability for those claims shall not exceed the single highest annual cap for those contract years.
      3. In clause 14.3(b):
        1. cap. The cap is the total Subscription Fees paid in the contract year in which the breaches occurred; and
        2. contract year. A contract year means a 12-month period commencing on the Effective Date or any anniversary of it.
    4. References to liability in this clause 14 include every kind of liability arising under or in connection with this agreement including but not limited to liability in contract, tort (including negligence), misrepresentation, restitution or otherwise.
  14. Term and termination
    1. This agreement shall, unless otherwise terminated as provided in this clause 15, commence on the Effective Date and shall continue for the Initial Subscription Term and, thereafter, this agreement shall be automatically renewed for successive periods that are equal to the Initial Subscription Term (each a "Renewal Period"), unless:
      1. the Customer terminates this agreement by updating its account via the Website, in which case this agreement shall terminate immediately; or
      2. otherwise terminated in accordance with the provisions of this agreement;
      and the Initial Subscription Term together with any subsequent Renewal Periods shall constitute the Subscription Term.
    2. Without affecting any other right or remedy available to it, either party may terminate this agreement with immediate effect by giving written notice to the other party if:
      1. the other party commits a material breach of any other term of this agreement; or
      2. the other party's financial position deteriorates so far as to reasonably justify the opinion that its ability to give effect to the terms of this agreement is in jeopardy.
    3. Without affecting any other right or remedy available to it, Exploitr may terminate this agreement with immediate effect by giving written notice to the Customer if:
      1. the Customer fails to pay any amount due under this agreement on the due date for payment and remains in default not less than 7 days after being notified in writing to make such payment; or
      2. there is a change of control of the Customer (within the meaning of section 1124 of the Corporation Tax Act 2010).
    4. On termination or expiry of this agreement for any reason:
      1. all licences granted under this agreement shall immediately terminate and the Customer shall immediately cease all use of the Services and/or the Documentation;
      2. each party shall return and make no further use of any equipment, property, Documentation and other items (and all copies of them) belonging to the other party;
      3. the Customer shall have 10 days from the date of termination or expiry to download its Customer Data. Thereafter (and with the exception of any Customer Personal Data which shall be retained and destroyed in accordance with clause 8) Exploitr may destroy or otherwise dispose of any of the Customer Data in its possession; and
      4. any rights, remedies, obligations or liabilities of the parties that have accrued up to the date of termination, including the right to claim damages in respect of any breach of the agreement which existed at or before the date of termination shall not be affected or prejudiced.
  15. Force majeure
      Neither party shall be in breach of this agreement or otherwise liable for any delay or failure in the performance of its obligations for so long as and to the extent that such delay or failure results from a Force Majeure Event.
  16. Variation
      Without prejudice to the Customer's right to upgrade or downgrade its Services in accordance with clause 5, no variation of this agreement shall be effective unless it is in writing and signed by the parties (or their authorised representatives).
  17. Waiver
    1. A waiver of any right or remedy is only effective if given in writing and shall not be deemed a waiver of any subsequent right or remedy.
    2. A delay or failure to exercise, or the single or partial exercise of, any right or remedy does not waive that or any other right or remedy, nor does it prevent or restrict the further exercise of that or any other right or remedy.
  18. Rights and remedies
      Except as expressly provided in this agreement, the rights and remedies provided under this agreement are in addition to, and not exclusive of, any rights or remedies provided by law.
  19. Severance
    1. If any provision or part-provision of this agreement is or becomes invalid, illegal or unenforceable, it shall be deemed deleted, but that shall not affect the validity and enforceability of the rest of this agreement.
    2. If any provision or part-provision of this agreement is deemed deleted under clause 20.1 the parties shall negotiate in good faith to agree a replacement provision that, to the greatest extent possible, achieves the intended commercial result of the original provision.
