The Website may contain links to other websites for the convenience and information of Visitors. Links may be contained on pages, or in blog posts, emails from THE UPCYCL, or newsletters THE UPCYCL may make available from time to time.

Such links may be to advertisers, merchandise retailers, payment processors, content providers, social media or other companies who may use THE UPCYCL’s logo or style as a result of a co-branding agreement.

14.3  Limitation of Liability.

(a) No party to these terms, its contractors, or their respective personnel will be liable to another party for any claims, losses, or liabilities relating to these Terms (“Claims”) for an aggregate amount in excess of the fees paid by the Customer to THE UPCYCL during the 12-month period immediately preceding the date on which the initial act or omission giving rise to the liability first occurred.

IN NO EVENT WILL THE UPCYCL, ITS AFFILIATES, OR THEIR RESPECTIVE EMPLOYEES, OFFICERS, DIRECTORS, OR AGENTS BE LIABLE FOR ANY INCIDENTAL, CONSEQUENTIAL, PUNITIVE, INDIRECT, OR SPECIAL DAMAGES, (INCLUDING LOST PROFITS) WHETHER BASED ON WARRANTY, CONTRACT, TORT, OR ANY OTHER LEGAL THEORY, AND WHETHER OR NOT THE UPCYCL IS ADVISED OF THE POSSIBILITY OF SUCH DAMAGES. BECAUSE SOME STATES OR JURISDICTIONS DO NOT ALLOW THE EXCLUSION OR LIMITATION OF LIABILITY FOR CONSEQUENTIAL OR INCIDENTAL DAMAGES, THE LIMITATIONS SET FORTH IN THIS SECTION MAY NOT APPLY TO YOU. IF THE FOREGOING LIMITATIONS ARE HELD INAPPLICABLE OR UNENFORCEABLE FOR ANY REASON, AND IF THE UPCYCL IS HELD RESPONSIBLE BY ANY COURT, THEN THE MAXIMUM LIABILITY OF THE UPCYCL TO YOU FOR ANY TYPE OF DAMAGES WILL BE LIMITED TO THE AMOUNT YOU PAID THE UPCYCL FOR GOODS OR SERVICES.

The provisions of this Section do not apply to (1) any Claim for which one party has an express obligation to indemnify the other under these Terms, (2) a breach of Subscription or Confidentiality, (3) any amounts owed by the Customer to THE UPCYCL for the Fees provided for under these Terms, or (4) the extent resulting from a party’s bad faith or intentional misconduct. In circumstances in which any limitation on damages or indemnification provision under these Terms is unavailable, the parties shall ensure that the aggregate liability of each party, its contractors, and their respective personnel for any Claim does not exceed an amount that is proportional to the relative fault that such party’s conduct bears to all other conduct giving rise to the Claim.

Limited Warranties.  THE UPCYCL warrants that (1) the execution, delivery and performance of these Terms by THE UPCYCL will not conflict with, breach, or cause a default under, any material contract with any third party; and (2) it has the right to provide a subscription for the System.

Time Limit for Bringing Actions.  Any action, regardless of form, arising under or relating to these Terms must be brought not later than one (1) year after the cause of action has accrued, except that an action for non-payment must be brought not later than two (2) years after the due date of the last payment owed to the party bringing the action.

(Confidentiality), (3) any amounts owed by the Customer to THE UPCYCL for the Fees provided for under these Terms, or (4) the extent resulting from a party’s bad faith or intentional misconduct. In circumstances in which any limitation on damages or indemnification provision under these Terms is unavailable, the parties shall ensure that the aggregate liability of each party, its contractors, and their respective personnel for any Claim does not exceed an amount that is proportional to the relative fault that such party’s conduct bears to all other conduct giving rise to the Claim.

Limited Warranties.  THE UPCYCL warrants that (1) the execution, delivery and performance of these Terms by THE UPCYCL will not conflict with, breach, or cause a default under, any material contract with any third party; and (2) it has the right to provide a subscription for the System.

Time Limit for Bringing Actions.  Any action, regardless of form, arising under or relating to these Terms must be brought not later than one (1) year after the cause of action has accrued, except that an action for non-payment must be brought not later than two (2) years after the due date of the last payment owed to the party bringing the action.

THE UPCYCL will be entitled to control the handling of any such claim with counsel of its own choosing and to defend or settle any such claim, provided, however, that THE UPCYCL shall not enter into any settlement that would require the Customer or User, as the case may be,  to admit to any liability or to take or refrain from taking any action, without such person’s prior written consent.

Dispute Resolution.

Jurisdiction. You and THE UPCYCL hereby irrevocably consent to the personal jurisdiction by such courts. You and THE UPCYCL represent that such courts are a convenient forum.

Time period for bringing claims. Regardless of any statute or law to the contrary, any claim under these Terms or Privacy Policy must be brought within one (1) year after the cause of action arises, or such claim will be forever barred and deemed released.

Assignment. THE UPCYCL may assign these Terms or the Checkout Terms and may delegate any of its obligations.


17. Additional Provisions

17.1  Force Majeure.  Neither party will be liable to the other party for damages arising out of delays or failures to perform under these Terms to the extent that any such delays or failures result from any cause beyond the reasonable control of the affected party, such as fire, earthquake, explosion, casualty, strike, war, riot, civil disturbance, act of God, any reasonably unforeseeable change in state or national law, decree, or ordinance, or any executive or judicial order, provided that the affected party promptly informs the other of all relevant information.

17.2  Independent Contractor.  Each of THE UPCYCL and the Customer or the User, as the case may be, is an independent contractor and no party is, nor will be considered to be, nor shall purport to act as, another’s agent, partner, fiduciary, joint venturer, or representative.

17.3 Assignment.  The Customer may not assign any of its rights or obligations under these Terms (including interests or claims relating to these Terms) without the prior written consent of THE UPCYCL. A party may assign these Terms to any affiliate or subsidiary, without consent, upon prior written notice to the other party. THE UPCYCL may assign these Terms to any acquirer of all or substantially all of its assets.

Entire Agreement.  These Terms and the selections made by the Customer during the Checkout Process, if applicable, together with the Privacy Policy, constitute the entire agreement between you and THE UPCYCL governing the Website and System or Services and supersede any prior agreements or understandings, oral or written, between you and THE UPCYCL with respect to the Website and System or the Services. Each of us represents to the other that we are not relying on any representations or promises not set forth in these Terms or the Privacy Policy. You also may be subject to additional contractual terms that may apply if you use or purchase certain Services of THE UPCYCL and enter into a separate agreement.

Severability.  If any provision of these Terms is found unenforceable, the provision will not affect any other provision, but party is, nor will be considered to be, nor shall purport to act as, another’s agent, partner, fiduciary, joint venturer, or representative. If any provision of these Terms or Privacy Policy is found by a court to be unenforceable for any reason, it will not affect any other provision, and these Terms or Privacy Policy will be construed without regard to the unenforceable provision.

Waivers; Amendments.  No delay or omission by a party in enforcing its rights or remedies under these Terms will impair such right or remedy or be deemed to be a waiver of the rights or remedies. No waiver of any right or remedy under these Terms with respect to any occurrence or event on one occasion will be deemed a waiver of such right or remedy with respect to such occurrence or event on any other occasion. No amendment or waiver of these Terms by a Visitor will be valid unless in writing and signed by both parties, provided, however, that THE UPCYCL may unilaterally amend these Terms in good faith. The failure of THE UPCYCL to enforce any right in these Terms or the Privacy Policy will not constitute a waiver of any right or provision.

Section Headings.  The section headings contained in these Terms are for convenience of reference only and are not intended to affect the meaning or interpretation of these Terms.

Governing Law; Jurisdiction; Venue.  These Terms are governed by the laws of Denmark. A party must bring and maintain any action arising out of these Terms exclusively in any state or federal court located in Denmark. Each party hereby expressly consents to the personal jurisdiction of such courts for the purposes of any such action. Each party hereby represents to the other that such courts are a convenient forum. The materials on the Website and System may not be appropriate or available for use in your location.

THE UPCYCL may limit the Website and System's availability, in whole or in part, to any person, geographic area, or jurisdiction.

Relationship. These Terms do not create any partnership, joint venture, employer-employee, agency, or franchisor-franchisee relationship between the parties.

Assignment. THE UPCYCL may assign these Terms or Privacy Policy and delegate any of its obligations.
