- Forward-Looking Information. All information other than statements of current and historical fact contained on our website is forward-looking information. In certain cases, forward-looking information can be identified by the use of words such as “plans”, “expects”, “budget”, “scheduled”, “estimates”, “forecasts”, “intends”, “anticipates”, “believes”, “aspirational”, “targets”, “goals”, “objectives”, “aims” or variations of such words and phrases, or statements that certain actions, events or results “may”, “could”, “would”, “might” or “will”, “occur” or “be achieved”, and similar words or the negative thereof. The forward-looking information contained herein is expressly qualified in its entirety by this cautionary statement. By its nature, forward-looking information is inherently uncertain, is subject to risk and is based on numerous assumptions, both general and specific, which give rise to the possibility that actual results or events could differ materially from the Company’s expectations expressed in, or implied by, such forward-looking statements and that our business outlook, objectives, plans and strategic priorities may not be achieved. These statements are not guarantees of future performance or events, and readers are cautioned against relying on any of these forward-looking statements. Although management of the Company believes that the expectations represented in such forward-looking information are reasonable, there can be no assurance that such expectations will prove to be correct. If the Company’s assumptions turn out to be inaccurate, its actual results could be materially different from what it expects. Accordingly, readers should not place undue reliance on forward-looking information. The Company assumes no obligation to update or revise such forward-looking information to reflect new events or circumstances, except as required under applicable securities laws.

- No one other than You and Company, or Company’s successors and assigns, will have any right to enforce these Terms.
- Any material breach of these Terms will result in irreparable harm to Company for which damages would be an inadequate remedy and, therefore, in addition to its rights and remedies otherwise available at law, Company will be entitled to equitable relief, including both a preliminary and permanent injunction, if such a breach occurs. You waive any requirement for the posting of a bond or other security if Company seeks such an injunction.
- Services derived or obtained from Company may be subject to the U.S. and Canadian export laws and the export or import laws of other countries.

- Any express waiver or failure to exercise promptly any right under the Terms will not create a continuing waiver or any expectation of non-enforcement. If any provision of the Terms is held invalid by any law or regulation of any government, or by any court or arbitrator, such provision will be replaced with a new provision that accomplishes the original business purpose, and the other provisions of the Terms will remain in full force and effect.
- Company always reserves the right to disclose any information as Company deems necessary to satisfy any applicable law, regulation, legal process, or governmental request or to edit, refuse to post, or to remove any information or materials, in whole or in part, in Company’s sole discretion.
