These terms apply to all users of Woodpecker, including without limitation, website visitors, vendors, customers, software users, and/or content contributors. By agreeing to the Terms, you represent that you are at least the age of majority in your state or jurisdiction (or that you are the age of majority in your state or jurisdiction and consent to the use of Woodpecker by your minor dependents). If you are using Woodpecker on behalf of an organization such as your employer, you are agreeing to these Terms on behalf of that organization and represent and warrant that you have the authority to agree to these Terms on the organization's behalf. In that case, “you” and “your” will refer to that organization.

Section 13 - Warranty Disclaimers

WOODPECKER IS PROVIDED “AS IS,” AT YOUR OWN RISK, WITHOUT EXPRESS OR IMPLIED WARRANTY OR CONDITION OF ANY KIND. WE ALSO DISCLAIM ANY WARRANTIES OF MERCHANTABILITY, FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE OR NON-INFRINGEMENT. Woodpecker will have no responsibility for any harm to your computer system, loss or corruption of data, or other harm that results from your access to or use of Woodpecker. Some states do not allow the types of disclaimers in this paragraph, so they may not apply to you.

Section 14 - Indemnity

You will hold harmless and indemnify Woodpecker and its affiliates, officers, directors, employees, contractors, agents, licensors, and suppliers from and against any claim, suit or action arising from or related to the use of Woodpecker or violation of these Terms, including any liability or expense arising from claims, losses, damages, suits, judgments, litigation costs and attorneys’ fees.

Section 15 - Limitation of Liability

(A) TO THE FULLEST EXTENT PERMITTED BY LAW, IN NO EVENT WILL WOODPECKER TECHNOLOGIES, LLC, ITS AFFILIATES, OFFICERS, EMPLOYEES, AGENTS, SUPPLIERS OR LICENSORS BE LIABLE FOR ANY INDIRECT, SPECIAL, INCIDENTAL, PUNITIVE, EXEMPLARY OR CONSEQUENTIAL DAMAGES (INCLUDING LOSS OF USE, PROFIT, DATA, GOODWILL, SERVICE INTERRUPTIONS, COMPUTER DAMAGE OR SYSTEM FAILURE), REGARDLESS OF LEGAL THEORY, WHETHER OR NOT WOODPECKER TECHNOLOGIES, LLC HAS BEEN WARNED OF THE POSSIBILITY OF SUCH DAMAGES, AND EVEN IF A REMEDY FAILS OF ITS ESSENTIAL PURPOSE; (B) AGGREGATE LIABILITY FOR ALL CLAIMS RELATING TO WOODPECKER MORE THAN THE GREATER OF $200 OR THE AMOUNTS PAID BY YOU TO WOODPECKER FOR THE PAST THREE MONTHS OF THE SERVICES IN QUESTION.

SECTION 16 - Termination

We may terminate or modify your access to and use of Woodpecker, at our sole discretion, at any time and without notice to you, for example, if you are not complying with these Terms, or if you use Woodpecker in any way that would cause us legal liability or disrupt others’ use of Woodpecker.

Likewise, you may cancel your account at any time.

If we suspend or terminate your use of Woodpecker, we will try to let you know in advance and help you retrieve data, though there may be cases (for example, flagrantly violating these Terms) where we may suspend your account immediately.

SECTION 17 - General Terms

These Terms and any action related thereto will be governed by the laws of the State of Massachusetts without regard to its conflict of law’s provisions. All claims arising out of or relating to these Terms or the services or software must be litigated exclusively in the state and federal courts located in Boston, MA and each of the parties hereto waives any objection to jurisdiction and venue in such courts. These Terms constitute the entire and exclusive agreement between you and Woodpecker and supersede and replace any other agreements, terms and conditions. These Terms create no third-party beneficiary rights. Woodpecker’s failure to enforce a provision is not a waiver of its right to do so later. If a provision is found unenforceable, the remaining provisions of the Terms will remain in full effect and an enforceable term will be substituted reflecting our intent as closely as possible. You may not assign any of your rights in these Terms without our written consent, and any such attempt will be null and have no effect. Woodpecker may freely assign or transfer these terms without restriction. Except as expressly set forth in these Terms, the exercise by either party of any of its remedies under these Terms will be without prejudice to its other remedies under these Terms or otherwise.

SECTION 18 - Contact Information
