Furthermore, Licensor does not warrant or make any representation regarding the results of Your use of the Materials in terms of capability, correctness, accuracy, reliability or otherwise, or that the Materials will meet Your expectations, or that the Materials are secure. No presentation, model, oral or written information, or advice given by Licensor or any representative of Licensor will create a warranty.
ANY LIABILITY OF LICENSOR OR ITS AFFILIATES FOR DEFECTS IN THE MATERIALS WILL BE LIMITED EXCLUSIVELY TO REPLACEMENT OF YOUR COPY OF THE MATERIALS WITH ANOTHER COPY OF THE MATERIALS, IF AVAILABLE.
Maintaining Operating System: Licensor cannot be responsible for the performance or maintenance of the computer or mobile-device’s Operating systems that you use. This includes bugs, viruses, spyware, and other malware. Your operating system requires occasional security patches, updates, and service packs.

We also recommend that you install antivirus software whenever possible.
Third party software and hardware: Licensor cannot be responsible for other software installed on the system by the end user. Common examples include applications (apps); email, office, publishing and accounting software, and antivirus software. We also cannot be responsible for any hardware, whether it was purchased from us or not. The reliability, security, and warranty of hardware is between you and the hardware manufacturer. Providing support to hardware or software not created by us puts us in a position of being responsible if it fails. We cannot, and do not, accept this responsibility.
