Your exclusive remedy for breach reported within 30 days is repair, re-performance, or, if not commercially reasonable, a credit/refund of prepaid, unused fees for the affected Service.
Except as expressly stated and to the extent permitted by law, we disclaim all warranties, conditions, and representations, express, implied, or statutory, including merchantability, fitness for purpose, accuracy, and non-infringement. Nothing excludes non-excludable rights under the Australian Consumer Law.
11. Indemnities & Remedies

We will defend and indemnify you against third-party claims in Australia alleging that the Platform (as provided) or Supplier Materials infringe Australian IP rights, and pay damages and reasonable legal costs finally awarded or approved in settlement. Exclusions: claims arising from your materials/instructions; combinations not supplied by us; use after we provide a non-infringing alternative.

We may procure rights, modify to be non-infringing, or replace with substantially equivalent functionality. If none is commercially reasonable, we may terminate the affected Order and refund prepaid, unused fees.
11.3 Your indemnity

To the extent permitted by law:
- Neither party is liable for indirect, incidental, special, consequential, or punitive damages, or for loss of profits, revenue, goodwill, or data, even if advised of the possibility.
- Each party's total aggregate liability is capped at the fees paid or payable by you under the relevant Order in the 12 months preceding the event.
- Carve-outs: the cap does not apply to (a) death/personal injury or damage to tangible property; (b) UNCAPT's IP indemnity; (c) breaches of confidentiality or DPA/privacy/security obligations (cap is 2x such fees); or (d) fraud or wilful misconduct. Payment obligations are not subject to the cap.

Each party will protect the other's Confidential Information with at least reasonable care, use it only to perform under these Terms, and disclose it only to those who need to know and are bound by confidentiality.
Permitted disclosure includes disclosures required by law or a stock exchange (with prior notice where lawful) and to professional advisors under confidentiality. Breach may cause irreparable harm; injunctive relief may be sought.
14. Compliance & Ethics; Third-Party Services

A party undergoing a change of control will provide prompt notice. The non-affected party may terminate for reasonable, demonstrable conflict-of-interest concerns on 30 days' notice if unresolved in good faith.
17. Term, Termination & Effect
These Terms apply for as long as you have an active Order. Either party may terminate an Order for material breach not cured within 30 days of notice (10 days for non-payment) or upon an insolvency event.
