Limitations on Liability
YOUR SOLE AND EXCLUSIVE REMEDY FOR ANY DISPUTE WITH US IS THE CANCELLATION OF YOUR REGISTRATION. IN NO EVENT SHALL OUR TOTAL CUMULATIVE LIABILITY TO YOU FOR ANY AND ALL CLAIMS RELATING TO OR ARISING OUT OF YOUR USE OF THE SERVICE, REGARDLESS OF THE FORM OF ACTION, EXCEED THE GREATER OF: (A) THE TOTAL AMOUNT OF FEES, IF ANY, THAT YOU PAID TO UTILIZE THE SERVICE OR (B) ONE HUNDRED DOLLARS ($100).

The failure of Index Hint LLC to exercise or enforce any right or provision of the Terms of Service shall not constitute a waiver of such right or provision.

You agree that if Index Hint LLC does not exercise or enforce any legal right or remedy which is contained in the Terms (or which Index Hint LLC has the benefit of under any applicable law), this will not be taken to be a formal waiver of Index Hint LLC’s rights and that those rights or remedies will still be available to Index Hint LLC.
