networked computer environment or other website.
Use of SETECS Software
SETECS software, sometimes referred to as (the “Software”)
and accompanying documentation that are made available by

work of SETECS. Use of the Software is governed by the terms
of the end user license agreement that accompanies or is included

of any kind either express or implied. To the fullest extent
permissible pursuant to applicable law, SETECS disclaims all
warranties, express or implied, including, but not limited
to, implied warranties of merchantability or fitness for a
particular purpose, or the warranty of non-infringement. Without
limiting the foregoing, SETECS does not warrant that the functions
contained in the service will be uninterrupted or error-free,
that defects will be corrected, or that this service or the
server that makes it available are free of viruses or other
harmful components. SETECS does not warrant or make any representations
regarding the use or the results of the use of the materials
in this service in terms of their correctness, accuracy, reliability,
or otherwise. You (and not SETECS) assume the entire cost
of all necessary servicing, repair, or correction. Applicable
law may not allow the exclusion of implied warranties, so

Under no circumstances, including, but not limited to, negligence,

materials, the site, or any other web site, even if SETECS
or a SETECS authorized representative has been advised of
the possibility of such damages. Applicable law may not allow
the limitation or exclusion of liability for incidental or
consequential damages, so the above limitation or exclusion
may not apply to you. No advice or information, whether written
or oral, obtained by you from SETECS or from or through the
site shall create any warranty not expressly stated in the
terms of use. In no event shall SETECS’s total liability
to you for all damages, losses, and causes of action (whether
in contract, tort (including, but not limited to, negligence)
or otherwise) exceed the amount paid by you, if any, for purchasing
any materials or products.

The license for use of the Site and the Materials is effective
until terminated. You may terminate it at any time by destroying

condition of this Terms of Use. In such event, no notice shall
be required by SETECS to effect such termination. Upon termination
of this Terms of Use, you agree to destroy the Materials together
with all backup copies, modifications, printed or written
materials, and merged portions in any form, or return same
to SETECS at your expense.
