- Acknowledgements.
a. Licensor takes certain steps to attempt to minimize unauthorized use and piracy of the Software. In this context, the Software may include a security mechanism that can detect the installation or use of illegal copies of the Software, and collect and transmit data about those illegal copies. By using the Software, You consent to such detection and collection of data, as well as its transmission and use if an illegal copy is detected.
b. The Software utilizes an interface with Transport Layer Security (TLS), which are cryptographic protocols designed to provide communications security over the computer network to allow the Software to connect to Licensor’s secure server in the United States for purposes of delivering You an RSS feed. The importation or use of encrypted protocols such as TLS may contravene the laws of the jurisdiction in which You reside, and You acknowledge and accept that (i) it is Your responsibility to insure that You are in compliance with Your local laws and (ii) Licensor is not responsible to insure Your compliance with local laws or to support You in the use of the TLS encryption if it is against the law in Your jurisdiction. To facilitate compliance, Licensor enables You to opt out of connecting to the RSS feed, thereby disabling the use of the TLS encryption.
- General.
a. A party’s exercise of, or failure to exercise, any right, remedy, or privilege under these Terms and Conditions will not constitute a waiver of any rights of that party under these Terms and Conditions.
b. A judicial determination that any provision of these Terms and Conditions is invalid, illegal, or unenforceable shall not affect the enforceability of any other provision.
c. The provisions of Sections 3(b), 4, 5(b), 6, and 7 will survive termination of the license for the Software.
