(2) In some jurisdictions, limitations of liability are not permitted. In such jurisdictions, the foregoing limitation may not apply to you.
(3) Under no circumstances shall Provider be held liable for any delay or failure in performance resulting directly or indirectly from acts of nature, forces or causes beyond its reasonable control, including, without limitation, Internet failures, computer equipment failures, telecommunication equipment failures, other equipment failures, electrical power failures, strikes, labour disputes, riots, insurrections, civil disturbances, shortages of labour or materials, fires, flood, storms, explosions, acts of God, war, governmental actions, orders of domestic or foreign courts or tribunals, non-performance of third parties, or loss of or fluctuations in heat, light or air-conditioning.
(4) The sites displayed as search results, otherwise linked to Provider’s websites, or operated or provided to the Provider by third parties are developed by people over whom Provider exercises no control. The search results that appear from the catalogues indexed by Provider’s spiders or web robots are automated, and Provider cannot and does not screen the sites before including them in the catalogues from which such automated search results are gathered. Accordingly, Provider assumes no responsibility for the content of any site included in any search results or otherwise linked to Provider’s websites. In instances where Provider does review the sites that are displayed in directories, indices, and/or references, or where makes available directories, indices, and/or references of sites compiled by third parties, the content located at such sites was developed by third parties.
(5) Provider occasionally receives requests from people to remove links from its catalogues. Although Provider reserves the right to address such requests individually, the general approach that Provider takes reflects the following principles: Provider’s catalogs consist of information that has been identified, indexed and compiled through an automated process with no advance review by human beings. Given the enormous volume of website information added, deleted and changed on a frequent basis, Provider cannot and does not screen anything made available through its catalogues. In other instances, Provider makes available directories, indices and references consisting of content that has been identified, indexed and compiled by humans. For each website reflected in Provider’s catalogues, if either (a) a site owner restricts access to his or her website or (b) a site is taken down from the web, then, on receipt of a request by the site owner in the first instance, and either the site owner or a third party in the second instance, Provider would remove the link to that site from its catalogues. However, if the operator of the site does not take steps to prevent it, the automatic facilities used to create the catalogues are likely to find it and index it again in a relatively short amount of time. The steps necessary to prevent a site from being included in the catalogues are described on www.betterflipflop.com/FAQ.
