13. A specific refund is agreed to between the Parties before termination (in which case the User will only be entitled to the refund agreed to); or

If this clause is breached, the User may be entitled to correction of errors or a refund as the Provider considers appropriate. 

24. If the User is a Consumer, the Provider warrants that the Software is fit for purpose and of satisfactory quality. If this clause is breached, the User may be entitled to a correction of errors or a refund as appropriate. 

25. Aside from the warranties in the two clauses above, the Provider does not provide any warranties regarding the quality, suitability for particular uses, or other aspects of the Software. In particular:

30.  The User shall indemnify the Provider against any reasonably foreseeable direct losses, damages, or reasonable expenses that the Provider incurs in relation to the User’s breach of the Agreement, the User’s infringement of any third party’s rights, or the User’s otherwise unlawful use of the Software.

The Provider is not liable for any unforeseeable loss or damage, any business damage or loss, any loss or damage not caused by the Provider’s negligence or breach of the Agreement, or any loss or damage caused by the User’s reliance on the output of the Software against these Terms of Use.

35. Particularly, except as set out elsewhere in these Terms of Use, note that the Provider is not responsible for issues that occur as a result of the User’s use of the Software that may be due to the Software’s use of AI, including but not limited to:

39. If the User inputs data or content in which the User holds Intellectual Property Rights into the Software, and consequent output of the Software contains elements of this data or content as well as data or content in which the Provider (or, in the case of Intellectual Property Rights that the Provider has permission to use, other parties) holds Intellectual Property Rights, all parties involved will retain ownership of their respective Intellectual Property Rights. This clause qualifies the clause on Intellectual Property Rights ownership immediately preceding this clause. The User is responsible for ensuring that it does not use any such Software output in a way that infringes on the Intellectual Property Rights of any other parties.

For more information on how the Provider uses users’ data, see the Provider’s Website Privacy Policy, accessible here: https://reviewlegalprivacypolicy.framer.website/. 

42. The User is responsible for and maintains control over any personal data that it is the data controller of or that it is otherwise responsible for and authorised to use as input into the Software. The User (and not the Provider) is responsible for ensuring that processing of any such personal data using the Software is carried out in reliance on a lawful basis for processing and in accordance with UK Data Protection Laws.

    1. Included in output of the Software, it is the User’s responsibility to ensure that use of this output does not infringe upon anybody’s data protection rights.

46. If the User is a Consumer, the User has a statutory right to cancel the Agreement (e.g. their purchase of access to the Software) within a period of 14 days from the date of purchase. However, by accepting these Terms of Use, the User expressly requests the Provider to grant the User immediate  access to the Software following the acceptance of the Terms of Use and the User acknowledges that, in making such a request, they waive the right to cancel as described. 

47. The Software has the following functionality:

Circumstances Beyond the Control of Either Party (Force Majeure)

51. Neither Party shall be liable for any failure or delay in performing their obligations under this Agreement (e.g. provision of payment or of Software) where such failure or delay results from any cause that is beyond the reasonable control of that Party.  

52. Such causes include, but are not limited to: power failure, Internet Service Provider failure, acts of God, epidemic, pandemic, civil unrest, fire, flood, droughts, storms, earthquakes, collapse of buildings, explosion or accident, acts of terrorism, acts of war, governmental action, any law, or any action taken by a government or public authority, including without limitation imposing an export or import restriction, quota, or prohibition, or any other event that is beyond the control of the Party in question. 

53. The Party affected by a circumstance beyond its control shall use all reasonable endeavours to mitigate the effect of the circumstance upon the performance of its obligations. 

54. The corresponding obligations of the other Party will be suspended to the same extent as those of the Party affected by the force majeure event.

55. If the delay continues for a period of 30 days, either Party may terminate the Agreement. Other termination methods, as set out above in the sections headed “Term and Termination of Use of the Paid Version of the Software” and “Term and Termination of Use of the Free Version of the Software” may, if applicable, be used to end the Agreement before such a 30-day period has elapsed. 

General Terms

56. If the User is a Business Customer placing an order on behalf of a business, the User confirms that they have the necessary authority to place the relevant order for and on behalf of that business.

57. The Agreement contains the whole agreement between the Parties relating to its subject matter and supersedes all prior discussions, arrangements, or agreements that might have taken place in relation to the Agreement. Nothing in this clause limits or excludes any liability for fraud or fraudulent misrepresentation.

58. Except as allowed above, neither Party may assign, transfer, sub-licence, or sub-contract to any third party the benefit and/or burden of the Agreement or of any of the rights under this Agreement without the prior written consent (not to be unreasonably withheld) of the other Party.

59. No variation of the Agreement will be valid or binding unless it is recorded in writing and signed by or on behalf of both Parties, except that: 

    1. Changes may be made by the Provider in accordance with other terms of these Terms of Use; and 

    2. Changes may be made by the Provider to these Terms of Use. The version of the Terms of Use that applies to a specific Agreement are those that are current on the Effective Date. Notification of any changes to the Terms of Use will be made in writing either in a manner that brings notice to the User’s attention before they next use the Software (e.g. via a pop-up on a login screen) or via direct communication with the User (e.g. by email). If changes are made to the Terms of Use, the User’s use of the Software after the changes are communicated and implemented is deemed to constitute their acceptance of the new Terms. If the User does not wish to accept the new Terms of Use, they can terminate the Agreement in accordance with the provisions above in the sections headed “Term and Termination of Use of the Paid Version of the Software” and “Term and Termination of Use of the Free Version of the Software”.

60. The Contracts (Rights of Third Parties) Act 1999 does not apply to the Agreement and no third party has any right to enforce or rely on any provision of the Agreement.

61. Unless otherwise agreed, no delay, act, or omission by a Party in exercising any right or remedy available in relation to this Agreement will be deemed a waiver of that, or any other, right or remedy.

62. If any court or competent authority finds that any provision or part of the Agreement is invalid, illegal, or unenforceable, that provision or part will, to the extent required, be deemed to be deleted, and the validity and enforceability of the other provisions of the Agreement will not be affected.

63. Nothing in the Agreement will establish any employment relationship, partnership, or joint venture between the Parties, or mean that one Party becomes the agent of the other Party, nor does the Agreement authorise any Party to enter into any commitments for or on behalf of the other Party.

64. Any notice (other than in legal proceedings) to be delivered under the Agreement must be in writing and delivered by email to the email address provided in these Terms of Use (for notices sent to the Provider) or to the email provided by the User when the User registers their account used to access the Software (for notices sent to the User).

Governing Law and Jurisdiction

65. This Agreement will be governed by and interpreted according to the laws of England and Wales. 

66. If the User is a Consumer who resides elsewhere in the UK, the User may also make use of any protections given to the User by the laws of the constituent country in which they reside. All disputes and claims arising under the Agreement where the User is a Consumer (including non-contractual disputes or claims) will be subject to the non-exclusive jurisdiction of the courts of England and Wales.

67. If the User is a Business Customer, all disputes and claims arising under the Agreement (including non-contractual disputes or claims) will be subject to the exclusive jurisdiction of the courts of England and Wales.
