To the maximum extent permitted by applicable law, Kindred Signal and its affiliates, officers, directors, employees, and agents shall not be liable for any indirect, incidental, special, consequential, or punitive damages, or any loss of profits, revenue, data, or use, whether arising from contract, tort, strict liability, or otherwise, resulting from your use or inability to use our services, any unauthorized access to or use of our servers or any personal information stored therein, any interruption or cessation of transmission to or from our services, any bugs, viruses, or other harmful components transmitted through our services, any errors or omissions in any content, or any loss or damage of any kind incurred as a result of your use of any content posted or transmitted through our services.
