By acquiring Virtual Currency or Virtual Items, you receive a non-exclusive, non-sublicensable, non-transferable, revocable, limited license to use the Virtual Currency and/or the Virtual Items, as applicable, as part of your use of our Products for your own personal, non-commercial entertainment use. You agree that you do not have any right, title or interest in and to the Virtual Currency and the Virtual Items, except for the express license rights set forth in this Section.
THE VIRTUAL CURRENCY AND THE VIRTUAL ITEMS DO NOT HAVE ANY CASH VALUE, AND NEITHER PERBLUE NOR ANY OTHER PERSON OR ENTITY HAS ANY OBLIGATION TO EXCHANGE YOUR VIRTUAL CURRENCY OR VIRTUAL ITEMS FOR ANYTHING OF VALUE, INCLUDING WITHOUT LIMITATION, NEGOTIABLE CURRENCY, AND IF YOUR ACCESS TO OUR PRODUCTS AND/OR YOUR ACCOUNT IS TERMINATED, WHETHER VOLUNTARILY OR INVOLUNTARILY, YOUR VIRTUAL CURRENCY AND VIRTUAL ITEMS SHALL HAVE NO VALUE.
THE PRICES AND VALUE OF VIRTUAL ITEMS MAY FLUCTUATE SIGNIFICANTLY AND MAY EVEN GO TO ZERO. VIRTUAL ITEMS CANNOT BE USED TO DISCHARGE PAYMENT OBLIGATIONS, ARE NOT FINANCIAL PRODUCTS OR INVESTMENT PRODUCTS AND SHOULD NOT BE USED FOR FINANCIAL, SPECULATIVE, OR INVESTMENT PURPOSES. YOU ACKNOWLEDGE THAT YOU FULLY UNDERSTAND THE RISKS ASSOCIATED WITH PURCHASING AND SELLING VIRTUAL ITEMS. WE WILL NOT PROVIDE ANY SUPPORT OR ADVICE WHATSOEVER CONCERNING THE VALUE AND/OR LIQUIDITY OF VIRTUAL ITEMS. YOU AGREE TO ASSUME ALL RISK ASSOCIATED WITH THE USE AND VALUE OF THE VIRTUAL ITEMS.
Any balance of Virtual Currency or Virtual Items does not reflect any stored value. The use of Virtual Currency or Virtual Items within our Products may be limited as described in the applicable Other Governing Agreement. We reserve the right to control, regulate, change, remove, expire, limit, or modify any Virtual Currency or Virtual Items at any time without any liability to you. If your account is canceled for any or no reason, you may forfeit any pending, current, or future Virtual Currency and Virtual Items and any other forms of unredeemed value in or associated with your account without prior notice to you.
We have the sole right to manage, modify and/or terminate the Virtual Currency and Virtual Items, and we shall have no liability to you or anyone else for the exercise of such rights. For example, we have the sole right to make all calculations regarding your balance of Virtual Currency, including the amount of Virtual Currency that are credited and debited in connection with your use of our Products. While we strive to make such calculations on a consistent and reasonable basis, you agree that our determination of the amount of your Virtual Currency balance is final and binding, absent manifest fraud or error.
Any unauthorized exchange, trade, transfer, purchase or sale of any Virtual Currency or Virtual Items (“Unauthorized Transactions”) to anyone, including other users of our Products, is strictly prohibited. You acknowledge that PerBlue may terminate or reverse any Unauthorized Transaction and may suspend or terminate your use of our Products if you engage or assist in any Unauthorized Transaction.
You acknowledge and agree that PerBlue shall have no liability for the loss of Virtual Currency and/or Virtual Items due to any unauthorized third-party activity, such as hacking, phishing, password mining, social engineering, and/or any other unauthorized third party’s or other user’s activity, including any Unauthorized Transactions. PerBlue may replace such lost Virtual Currency and/or Virtual Items under certain circumstances, at its sole discretion on a case-by-case basis, without incurring any obligation or liability to you or any other user of our Products.
We may revise the pricing for Virtual Currency and Virtual Items offered through our Products at any time. We may limit the total amount of Virtual Currency or Virtual Items that may be purchased at any one time, and/or limit the total amount of Virtual Currency and Virtual Items that may be held in your account in the aggregate. In addition, we may impose a maximum balance of Virtual Currency acquirable with United States Dollars or other applicable currency that you can maintain with PerBlue at any given time. You are only allowed to obtain Virtual Currency and Virtual Items from us or our authorized partners through our Products, and not in any other way.
7. Orders and Payments
You agree to pay all fees and charges, including applicable taxes, incurred by you or through the use of your Registration Data, and/or the account registered to you. Unless otherwise indicated, all prices are in United States Dollars. If a price is in United States Dollars and if you are using a local currency, the actual amount charged to you may fluctuate based on currency exchange rates without notice to you. You represent to us that you are an authorized user of the chosen method of payment used to pay any fees or charges incurred plus all applicable taxes. YOU AGREE THAT YOU ARE FULLY LIABLE AND RESPONSIBLE FOR ALL FEES AND CHARGES MADE THROUGH YOUR REGISTRATION DATA AND/OR YOUR ACCOUNT VIA THE PRODUCTS. YOU AGREE THAT ALL SALES ARE FINAL.
PerBlue may revise the pricing for the Products and its components at any time. If PerBlue makes a change to the subscription price for a Product, we will let you know in advance. PerBlue provides no refunds for any purchases, except in our sole and absolute discretion, or as expressly set forth below in this Section.
PerBlue may offer one or more of its Products on a subscription basis. If you purchase a Product subscription, then you are requesting that PerBlue begin supplying the subscription immediately and are entering into a subscription contract with PerBlue, which may be monthly or some other time period as agreed by you. You are also authorizing a charge in the amount of the subscription fee at the rate quoted at the time of purchase. For subscription services purchased through one of our Products played on a platform such as Apple, the applicable platform will charge you the subscription fee and the platform’s payment terms will apply. Please review the appropriate platform’s payment terms for additional information.
If you purchase a Product subscription, then your subscription will automatically renew each month or such other renewal period unless and until you terminate your subscription or PerBlue terminates your subscription. You must cancel your subscription before its next monthly or such other renewal period; otherwise, your payment of the next subscription fee will be taken automatically via your chosen payment method. You may cancel at any time by following the applicable cancellation instructions for the Product for which you purchased a subscription. If you are a resident of the European Union and you purchase a Product subscription, the subscription may be cancelled within 14 days from the date of purchase, and you may obtain a refund of your initial payment minus a reasonable prorated portion to cover your use of the Product subscription prior to cancellation. Please review the appropriate platform’s cancellation terms for additional information.
We reserve the right to suspend, disable, cancel or terminate your subscription or convert your subscription account to a standard account at our discretion and without any notice. If we cancel your subscription, we will give you a prorated refund based on the amount of time remaining in your pre-paid subscription; provided, however, that we will not be obligated to grant you a refund if we terminate your account or your subscription because we determine, in our sole discretion, that your actions or your use of the Products violates these Terms or has harmed another user.
We reserve the right to charge fees for the right to use Virtual Currency or Virtual Items, and/or may distribute Virtual Currency or Virtual Items without charge, in our sole discretion. You agree that we may take any action that impacts the perceived value of or pricing for any Virtual Currency, Virtual Items and/or any of our Products at any time.
You may purchase limited licenses to use Virtual Currency and Virtual Items from PerBlue in accordance with these Terms, and you agree that all such purchases are final and non-cancellable. If you order licenses for Virtual Currency or Virtual Items that become unavailable before they can be provided to you, your only remedy is to request a refund of the purchase price from the payment processor of the transaction.
You expressly consent to the making available of Virtual Currency and/or Virtual Items immediately upon acceptance of your order. If you are a resident of the European Union and you purchase limited licenses to Virtual Currency or Virtual Items from us, the right to withdraw from such purchases within 14 days from the date of purchase (“Cooling Off Period”) may be available to you; however, this right of withdrawal will not apply where our performance begins before the end of the Cooling Off Period. Therefore, you expressly agree that if you order limited licenses to Virtual Currency or Virtual Items from us, your right of withdrawal is forfeited upon your acceptance as performance begins immediately on your acceptance.
You may be required to provide PerBlue or its designated agent, or the applicable platform through which you play our Product with your credit or debit card number or other payment information, and related billing information, in connection with your use of the Products, your purchase of Product subscriptions and/or your purchase of Virtual Currency or Virtual Items. You may also have the option of participating in third-party offers to receive Virtual Currency. We are not responsible or liable to you for any card or bank-related charges and fees related to your transactions on our Products, or for your participation in any third-party offers. All such transactions are administered by a third-party payment processor. PerBlue expressly disclaims any liability for any such transactions, and you agree that your sole avenue of recourse regarding such transactions is through any such third-party payment processor.
ALL PURCHASES WITH RESPECT TO THE PRODUCTS ARE FINAL AND NON-CANCELLABLE, AND UNDER NO CIRCUMSTANCES WILL BE REFUNDABLE, TRANSFERABLE OR EXCHANGEABLE, EXCEPT THAT (a) EU CUSTOMERS MAY CANCEL WITHIN 14 DAYS OF THEIR INITIAL PURCHASE AS EXPRESSLY EXPLAINED ABOVE, AND (b) VIRTUAL CURRENCY MAY BE EXCHANGED FOR VIRTUAL ITEMS.
YOU AGREE THAT YOU ARE FULLY LIABLE AND RESPONSIBLE FOR ALL FEES AND CHARGES MADE THROUGH YOUR USERNAME AND PASSWORD AND/OR YOUR ACCOUNT VIA THE PRODUCTS. You agree to pay all fees or charges incurred by you, including applicable taxes at the time that the applicable fee or charge becomes payable. Unless otherwise indicated, all prices are in United States Dollars. You represent to us that you are an authorized user of the chosen method of payment used to pay any fees or charges you incur plus all applicable taxes. You agree to not otherwise dispute or charge-back any payments for purchases that have been successfully credited to your account within the Products or otherwise attempt to defraud PerBlue. Should PerBlue receive notice of any payment disputes or charge-backs for successfully completed purchases which have already been credited to your account, your account may be indefinitely suspended or terminated.
When you make purchases through either the Apple iTunes service or the Google Play service, you agree to their respective Terms and Conditions. (http://www.apple.com/legal/internet-services/itunes/us/terms.html; http://play.google.com/intl/en_us/about/play-terms.html). If you are unsure about your rights in purchases made through either service, you should check with your respective service before making a purchase. All payment-related requests related to such purchases should be directed to Apple or Google through their respective service, and are subject to their respective Terms and Conditions. We are not a party to any In-App Purchases, and we have no obligation to, and cannot, provide refunds or credits (except as required by law). All sales of Virtual Currency and Virtual Items are final, and charges paid by you are final and non-refundable, except as required by law or otherwise set forth in these Terms.

PerBlue Products may occasionally offer a one-time or limited-time loot, bonuses or other benefits (“Benefits”) to players who have a current Product subscription, agree to start a Product subscription, create an account, or refer others to create an account or start a Product subscription. You understand that these Benefits, which will generally be marked as “loot”, “bonus” or similar terminology, will not be a part of your ongoing Product subscription. Benefits must be used by and for the intended audience and purposes and may not be sold or transferred in any manner or made available to the general public (whether posted to a public forum or otherwise), unless expressly permitted by PerBlue. Except as permitted by PerBlue, Benefits are non-transferrable, may not be resold, and are not redeemable for cash or other consideration. You agree we may change the terms and conditions governing the Benefits, terminate the Benefits program, or expire, deduct, limit, or modify your Benefits at any time for any reason, including but not limited to, in the event that PerBlue determines or believes that your participation in the Benefits program or use or redemption of Benefits was in error, fraudulent, illegal, or otherwise in violation of these Terms.
Certain Benefits are awarded as “pending benefits” earned gradually when users engage with our Products. A user’s pending benefits are converted into a monetary credit that can be used to engage with the Products. Unless otherwise stated, any unconverted pending benefits remaining in a user’s account 45 days after it has been initially credited can be removed by PerBlue.
In the event of abuse of the Benefits system by any user, PerBlue reserves the right to retract your Benefits.

Our Products may contain advertisements and links for purchasing products and services, which may be targeted to your use of our Products. The types and extent of monetization of our Products by or on behalf of PerBlue, including advertising and links for purchasing products and services, are subject to change. In consideration for PerBlue granting you use of our Products, you agree that PerBlue and the companies, organizations and individuals that enter into agreements with us may place such advertising and links in our Products, whether made available by you or others, and you are not entitled to any compensation for such advertising, links or related activities.

You agree that you will not share your password with others or do anything that might jeopardize the security of your password or account. You accept all responsibility for any activity that occurs with respect to your username and password, or your account, whether or not you are aware of such activity. Please notify us immediately of any unauthorized use of your username and password, or your account.
11. Location-Based Services, Push Notifications, and Other Communications
We may offer features that are based on the location of users and may report on the locations of those users as they use the Products (“Location-Based Services”).

Should you use Location-Based Services, you are consenting to our collection and dissemination of your location information through our Products. Under no circumstances shall we be liable for claims or damages arising out of your informed decision to disseminate your location information through our Products.

14. Suspension; Termination
You may terminate your account or discontinue your use of our Products at any time for any reason. If you stop using our Products with or without terminating your account, your account may be terminated due to prolonged inactivity as determined by PerBlue. We may suspend or terminate your use of our Products at any time for any reason, including, but not limited to, if we reasonably believe: (a) you have violated these Terms, (b) you create risk or possible legal exposure for us or any of our users or (c) our provision of our Products to you is no longer commercially viable. We will make reasonable efforts to notify you at the email address that you provide to us or the next time you attempt to use our Products.

15. Indemnity
You agree to indemnify, defend and hold harmless PerBlue and its directors, officers, employees and agents from and against any claims, suits, proceedings, disputes, demands, liabilities, damages, losses, costs and expenses, including reasonable legal and accounting fees (including costs of defense of claims, suits or proceedings brought by third parties), in any way related to (a) your use of our Products, (b) your Submissions, (c) your breach of any of these Terms or (d) your violation of the rights of other users. PerBlue reserves the right, at its own expense, to assume exclusive defense and control of any matter otherwise subject to indemnification by you, and, in such case, you agree to cooperate with PerBlue in defense of such matter.
Notwithstanding the foregoing paragraph, if you are a resident of New Jersey, you only agree to release, defend, indemnify, and hold harmless PerBlue and each of its officers, directors, employees, shareholders and representatives from and against any third-party claims, liabilities, damages, losses, and expenses, including without limitation, reasonable legal and accounting fees, arising out of or in any way connected with your violation of these Terms.
IF YOU ARE A CALIFORNIA RESIDENT, YOU WAIVE CALIFORNIA CIVIL CODE SECTION 1542, WHICH PROVIDES: A general release does not extend to claims that the creditor or releasing party does not know or suspect to exist in his or her favor at the time of executing the release and that, if known by him or her, would have materially affected his or her settlement with the debtor or released party.
If you are not a California resident, you waive your rights under any statute or common law principle similar to California Civil Code Section 1542 that governs your rights in the jurisdiction of your residence.
16. Limitations of Liability
YOU ACKNOWLEDGE AND AGREE THAT YOU ASSUME FULL RESPONSIBILITY FOR YOUR USE OF THE PRODUCTS. IN NO EVENT SHALL PERBLUE OR ITS LICENSORS BE LIABLE FOR ANY INDIRECT, PUNITIVE, SPECIAL, EXEMPLARY, INCIDENTAL OR CONSEQUENTIAL DAMAGES OF ANY TYPE OR KIND (INCLUDING ANY ALTERATION, BREACH, COMPROMISE, CORRUPTION OR LOSS OF DATA) IN ANY WAY RELATED TO (A) THE USE OF OUR PRODUCTS, (B) THE PROVISION OF OUR PRODUCTS, (C) THE CONDUCT OF OTHER USERS OF OUR PRODUCTS, (D) THE USE OF ANY THIRD-PARTY INFORMATION, WEBSITES, PRODUCTS, SERVICES, RESOURCES OR OTHER EVENTS OR ACTIVITIES OBTAINED VIA OUR PRODUCTS, OR (E) THESE TERMS OR OUR PRIVACY POLICY. YOUR ONLY REMEDY AGAINST PERBLUE FOR DISSATISFACTION WITH OUR PRODUCTS IS TO STOP USING OUR PRODUCTS. IF, NOTWITHSTANDING THESE TERMS, PERBLUE IS FOUND LIABLE TO YOU, THE CUMULATIVE LIABILITY OF PERBLUE AND ITS LICENSORS TO YOU SHALL IN NO EVENT EXCEED US$100.00. THESE LIMITATIONS SHALL APPLY TO ANY THEORY OF LIABILITY, WHETHER BASED ON WARRANTY, CONTRACT, STATUTE, TORT (INCLUDING NEGLIGENCE) OR OTHERWISE, AND WHETHER OR NOT PERBLUE HAS BEEN INFORMED OF THE POSSIBILITY OF ANY SUCH DAMAGE, AND EVEN IF A REMEDY SET FORTH HEREIN IS FOUND TO HAVE FAILED OF ITS ESSENTIAL PURPOSE.
Some jurisdictions do not allow such limitations of liability, so the foregoing limitations shall apply to you up to the maximum extent permitted under applicable law. THE LIMITATION OF LIABILITY DESCRIBED ABOVE SHALL APPLY FULLY TO NEW JERSEY RESIDENTS.
17. Arbitration and Class Action Waiver
If you have a dispute with PerBlue in any way related to your use of our Products, these Terms or our Privacy Policy, you agree to attempt to resolve the dispute with us informally. If we are unable to resolve the dispute informally, we each agree to resolve the dispute by binding arbitration, except that you and PerBlue are not required to arbitrate any dispute in which either party seeks injunctive or other equitable relief for the unauthorized access or use of our Products or unlawful use of intellectual property.
If the parties do not reach an agreed-upon solution within a period of sixty (60) days from the time informal dispute resolution is initiated, then the parties agree to resolve by arbitration subject to the provisions in this Section. The arbitrator, and not any federal, state, or local court or agency, shall have exclusive authority to resolve all disputes arising out of or relating to the interpretation, applicability, enforceability, or formation of these Terms, including, but not limited to, any claim that all or any part of these Terms is void or voidable or whether a claim is subject to arbitration.
To start an arbitration, you must do the following: (A) Write a Demand for Arbitration that includes a description of the claim and the amount of damages you seek to recover. You may find a copy of a Demand for Arbitration at https://www.jamsadr.com; (B) Send three copies of the Demand for Arbitration, plus the appropriate filing fee, to JAMS, Two Embarcadero Center, Suite 1500, San Francisco, CA 94111, USA; and (C) Send one copy of the Demand for Arbitration to us at 300 California Street, 3rd Floor, San Francisco, California 94104, USA.
To the extent the filing fee for the arbitration exceeds the cost of filing a lawsuit, we will pay the additional cost. If the arbitrator finds the arbitration to be non-frivolous, we will pay all of the actual filing and arbitrator fees for the arbitration. You are responsible for your own attorneys’ fees unless the arbitration rules and/or applicable law provides otherwise. The parties understand that, absent this mandatory provision, they would have the right to sue in court and have a jury trial. They further understand that, in some instances, the costs of arbitration could exceed the costs of litigation and that the right to discovery may be more limited in arbitration than in court.
If you are a resident of the United States, arbitration may take place at any reasonable location within the United States convenient for you. For residents outside the United States, arbitration shall be initiated in San Francisco County, California, United States of America.
You and PerBlue agree that JAMS will conduct the arbitration confidentially pursuant to JAMS’ then current rules with a single arbitrator.
You and PerBlue agree that the state or federal courts of San Francisco County, California, United States will have exclusive jurisdiction over any appeals of an arbitration award. Each party will be responsible for paying any JAMS fees in accordance with JAMS rules. The award rendered by the arbitrator will include costs of arbitration, reasonable attorneys’ fees and reasonable costs for expert and other witnesses, and any judgment on the award rendered by the arbitrator may be entered in any court of competent jurisdiction. Other than class procedures and remedies discussed below, the arbitrator has the authority to grant any remedy that would otherwise be available in court.
The parties further agree that the resolution of any disputes between the parties shall be conducted in their individual capacities only and not as a class action or other representative action, and the parties expressly waive their right to file a class action or seek relief on a class basis. YOU AND PERBLUE AGREE THAT EACH MAY BRING CLAIMS AGAINST THE OTHER ONLY IN YOUR OR ITS INDIVIDUAL CAPACITY, AND NOT AS A PLAINTIFF OR CLASS MEMBER IN ANY PURPORTED CLASS OR REPRESENTATIVE PROCEEDING. If any court or arbitrator determines that the class action waiver set forth in this paragraph is void or unenforceable for any reason or that an arbitration can proceed on a class basis, then the arbitration provisions set forth above shall be deemed null and void in its entirety, and the parties shall be deemed to have not agreed to arbitrate disputes.
Either party may bring an action in state or federal court or in the U.S. Patent and Trademark Office to protect its intellectual property rights (“intellectual property rights” means patents, copyrights, moral rights, trademarks, and trade secrets, but not privacy or publicity rights). Either party may also seek relief in a small claims court for disputes or claims within the scope of that court’s jurisdiction. For such disputes, you and PERBLUE agree to submit to the personal and exclusive jurisdiction of and venue in the federal and state courts located in San Francisco County, California, USA. You further agree to accept service of process by mail and hereby waive any and all jurisdictional and venue defenses otherwise available.
You have the right to opt out and not be bound by the arbitration and class action waiver provisions set forth above by sending written notice of your decision to opt out to legal@perblue.com with the subject line, “ARBITRATION AND CLASS ACTION WAIVER OPT-OUT.” The notice must be sent within thirty (30) days of your first download of, access to, or use of our Products; otherwise, you shall be bound to arbitrate disputes in accordance with the terms of this Section. If you opt out of these arbitration provisions, we also will not be bound by them.
PerBlue will provide 60 days’ notice of any changes to this Section. Changes will become effective on the 60th day and will apply prospectively only to any claims arising after the 60th day. If a court or arbitrator decides that the foregoing change procedures to this Section are not enforceable or valid, then this paragraph shall be severed from the Section entitled Arbitration and Class Action Waiver, and the court or arbitrator shall apply the first Arbitration and Class Action Waiver (or similarly named) section in existence after you first downloaded, accessed, or used the Products.
18. Governing Law, Jurisdiction and Statute of Limitations
These Terms are governed by the laws of Wisconsin, United States. These Terms are not governed by the conflict of law rules of any jurisdiction, the United Nations Convention on Contracts for the International Sale of Goods or the Uniform Computer Information Transactions Act, and the application of each is expressly excluded. We each agree to submit to the exclusive jurisdiction of the state or federal courts of Dane County, Wisconsin, United States for any matters not subject to arbitration. No claim against PerBlue may be brought more than one year after the facts giving rise to such claim have arisen.
19. Miscellaneous
If any provision of these Terms is held to be unenforceable, such provision will be construed so as to be enforceable to the maximum extent permissible by law, and the remaining Terms will remain in full force and effect. The failure of PerBlue to enforce any provision of these Terms will not be deemed a waiver of such provision. You may not assign or transfer these Terms, in whole or in part, by operation of law or otherwise, without PerBlue’s prior written approval. All of our rights and obligations under these Terms are freely assignable or transferable by us in connection with a merger, acquisition or sale of assets, or by operation of law or otherwise. No agency, partnership, joint venture, employee-employer or franchisor-franchisee relationship is intended or created by these Terms. Except as set forth in Section 20, these Terms do not confer any third-party beneficiary rights.
You agree that the provisions in these Terms that limit liability and disclaim warranties are essential terms of these Terms.
The section titles in these Terms are for convenience only and have no legal or contractual effect.
You agree that, except as otherwise expressly provided in these Terms, there shall be no third party beneficiaries to these Terms.
Please contact us at legal@perblue.com if you have any questions or comments about these Terms.
20. Additional Terms for Our iOS App
You acknowledge and agree that (i) these Terms are binding between you and PerBlue only, and Apple is not a party hereto, and (ii) as between PerBlue and Apple, it is PerBlue that is responsible for our app and the content thereof. You must use the iOS app only on an Apple-branded product that runs iOS. Your use of our app must comply with the terms of use applicable to the Apple source from which you obtain it (including the Usage Rules set forth in the Apple App Store Terms of Service). You acknowledge that Apple has no obligation to furnish you with any maintenance and support services with respect to our app.
You acknowledge that Apple is not responsible for addressing any claims you have or any claims of any third party relating to our app or your possession and use of our app, including, but not limited, to (i) product warranty or liability claims; (ii) any claim that our app fails to conform to any applicable legal or regulatory requirement; (iii) claims arising under consumer protection or similar legislation; or (iv) claims that our app infringes a third party’s intellectual property rights.
In the event of any failure of the iOS version of our app to conform to any applicable warranty that has not been effectively disclaimed by these Terms, you may notify Apple, and Apple will refund the purchase price for our app (if any) to you; to the maximum extent permitted by applicable law, Apple will have no other warranty obligation whatsoever with respect to our app, and, as between Apple and PerBlue, any other claims, losses, liabilities, damages, costs or expenses attributable to any failure to conform to any warranty will be PerBlue’s responsibility, but only to the extent provided by these Terms. Please read the entire Terms, as other sections of these Terms limit PerBlue’s liability in this regard.
Apple, and Apple’s subsidiaries, are third-party beneficiaries of these Terms. Upon your acceptance of the Terms, Apple will have the right (and will be deemed to have accepted the right) to enforce these Terms against you as a third-party beneficiary thereof. There are no other third-party beneficiaries of these Terms.
