3. DISCLAIMER.
DEQUE PROVIDES THE BROWSER EXTENSION AS-IS, WITH ALL FAULTS, THE ENTIRE RISK AS TO SATISFACTORY QUALITY, PERFORMANCE, ACCURACY, AND EFFORT IS WITH YOU, AND DEQUE MAKES NO WARRANTY WITH RESPECT TO THE BROWSER EXTENSION. WITHOUT LIMITING THE FOREGOING, DEQUE DOES NOT WARRANT THAT THE OPERATION OF THE BROWSER EXTENSION WILL BE UNINTERRUPTED OR ERROR-FREE. AND DEQUE DISCLAIMS ALL WARRANTIES, INCLUDING WARRANTIES AGAINST INTERFERENCE WITH YOUR OR ANY THIRD PARTY’S ENJOYMENT OF THE BROWSER EXTENSION, AGAINST INFRINGEMENT, OF FITNESS FOR ANY PARTICULAR PURPOSE OR OF MERCHANTABILITY.
Under no circumstances may You use the Browser Extension, any related documentation, or any other good, service, or software provided by Deque in connection with any good, service, or software that is to be used for any application where the failure or noncompliance of such good, service, or software is likely to result in personal injury (including, but not limited to, death) or property damage.
The Browser Extension operates utilizing the Internet, which is not under the control of Deque and which is inherently insecure. Deque makes no warranties, representations, or guarantees of any kind, express, implied, statutory, or otherwise, oral or written, with respect to the performance or security of the Internet.

7. General Provisions.
7.1 No Software. FOR THE AVOIDANCE OF DOUBT, THIS AGREEMENT IS RESTRICTED TO USE OF AND ACCESS TO THE BROWSER EXTENSION. ANY AGREEMENT WITH RESPECT TO THE LICENSING OF SOFTWARE PRODUCTS OR THE USE THEREOF WILL BE UNDER A SOFTWARE LICENSE AGREEMENT SEPARATELY NEGOTIATED AND EXECUTED BY THE PARTIES.
7.2 Amendments. No amendment, change, waiver, or discharge of this Agreement shall be valid unless in a record signed by the party against whom enforcement is sought.
7.3 Force Majeure. If the performance of any part of this Agreement (other than payment of amounts due from You) by either party is prevented, hindered, delayed or otherwise made impracticable by reason of any flood, unusually severe weather, riot, fire, judicial or governmental action, labor dispute, act of God, act of terrorism, or any other cause beyond the control of either party, that party shall be excused from performance to the extent that it is prevented, hindered or delayed by such causes.
7.4 Governing Law; Venue. This Agreement shall be governed in all respects by the laws of the Commonwealth of Virginia (excluding the Uniform Computer Information Transactions Act) without regard to its conflict of law provisions.
7.5 Assignment. You may not assign, without the prior written consent of Deque, any of its rights, duties, or obligations under this Agreement to any person whether by assignment, merger, transfer of assets, sale of stock, operation of law or otherwise.
7.6 Notice. Any notice required or permitted to be given under this Agreement must be in writing and will be deemed effective (a) if given by personal delivery, upon such personal delivery or (b) if given by nationally-recognized courier or mail service (in either case that has real-time or near-real-time tracking), at the time that the notice is delivered (or an attempt is made to deliver the notice, regardless of whether refused) to the receiver’s premises according to the tracking records of the courier or mail service. The addresses for notice for each party are the addresses most recently provided by a party to the other party. Either party may change its address for notice by notice to the other party. Notwithstanding the foregoing, Deque may provide, and You consent to the receipt of, notices required or permitted under this Agreement via email delivery.
7.7 Successors and Assigns; No Third-Party Beneficiaries. This Agreement is legally binding upon and inures to the benefit of the parties and their permitted successors and assigns. No third party is intended to benefit from, nor may any third party seek to enforce, any of the terms of this Agreement, including, but not limited to, any third party with whom You have an employment or separate contractual relationship.
7.8 Relationship of the Parties. Nothing contained in this Agreement shall be deemed to create an association, partnership, joint venture, or relationship of employment, principal and agent or master and servant between the parties, or to grant either party the right or authority to assume, create or incur any liability or obligation of any kind, express or implied, against, in the name of, or on behalf of, the other party.
7.9 Waiver. The failure of a party to enforce any of the provisions of this Agreement, or to exercise any option provided in this Agreement, or to require performance by the other party of any of the provisions in this Agreement, is not a present or future waiver of such provisions and does not affect the validity of this Agreement or the right of the party to enforce each and every provision of this Agreement thereafter. The express waiver (whether one or more times) by a party of any provision, condition or requirement of this Agreement does not constitute a waiver of any future obligation of the other party to comply with such provision, condition or requirement.
7.10 Severability. If any provision of this Agreement is invalid under any applicable statute or rule of law, it is to that extent to be deemed omitted, and the balance of this Agreement shall remain enforceable.
7.11 Survival. The terms and conditions that by their sense and context are intended to survive termination or expiration hereof shall so survive.
7.12 Entire Agreement. This Agreement is the entire agreement between Deque and You with respect to the subject matter of this Agreement and there are no representations, understandings or agreements about its subject matter that are not fully expressed in this Agreement.
