TO THE MAXIMUM EXTENT PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE LAW, THE ALIVECOR GROUP (AS DEFINED IN SECTION 10.1) SHALL NOT BE LIABLE TO YOU FOR ANY DIRECT, INDIRECT, SPECIAL, INCIDENTAL, PUNITIVE OR CONSEQUENTIAL DAMAGES ARISING OUT OF OR RESULTING FROM YOUR USE OF THE APPLICATION OR WEBSITE, OR BASED UPON ANY BREACH OF ANY EXPRESS OR IMPLIED WARRANTY, BREACH OF CONTRACT (INCLUDING THESE TERMS AND CONDITIONS AND ANY ADDITIONAL INSTRUCTIONS, GUIDELINES OR POLICIES ISSUED BY ALIVECOR, INCLUDING THOSE POSTED IN THE APPLICATION OR ON THE WEBSITE), NEGLIGENCE, TORT OR ANY OTHER LEGAL THEORY (COLLECTIVELY, THE “EXCLUDED DAMAGES”). FOR THE AVOIDANCE OF DOUBT, THE EXCLUDED DAMAGES ALSO INCLUDE WITHOUT LIMITATION, LOSS OF SAVINGS OR REVENUE; LOSS OF PROFIT; LOSS OF USE; LOSS OF LIFE OR HEALTH, THE CLAIMS OF THIRD PARTIES; AND ANY COST OF ANY SUBSTITUTE EQUIPMENT OR SERVICES. IF ALIVECOR CANNOT LAWFULLY DISCLAIM LIABILITY FOR ANY OF THE FOREGOING DAMAGES, THEN ALIVECOR GROUP’S MAXIMUM LIABILITY TO YOU IS LIMITED TO THE PURCHASE PRICE PAID BY YOU TO ALIVECOR FOR THE APPLICATION. THESE LIMITATIONS APPLY EVEN IF ANY OTHER REMEDIES AVAILABLE TO YOU FAIL OF THEIR ESSENTIAL PURPOSE. SOME JURISDICTIONS DO NOT ALLOW THE EXCLUSION OR LIMITATION OF INCIDENTAL OR CONSEQUENTIAL DAMAGES, SO THE ABOVE LIMITATION MAY NOT APPLY TO YOU.
9.2. RemediesAt its option, any member of the AliveCor Group may seek all remedies available to it under law and in equity, including injunctive relief in the form of specific performance to enforce these Terms and Conditions, including any additional instructions, guidelines or policies issued by AliveCor, including those posted in the Application or on the Website, and/or actions for damages.
9.3. ClaimsNo action arising out of, in connection with, or relating to these Terms and Conditions or the subject of these Terms and Conditions shall be brought by You more than one (1) year after the accrual of the cause of action. This period shall not be extended for any reason, except by the written consent of both parties. All statutes or provisions of law which would toll or otherwise affect the running of the period of limitation are hereby waived, and no such statute or provision of law shall operate to extend the period limited in this paragraph.
You will indemnify and hold harmless AliveCor, its affiliates and their respective current, future or former officers, directors, partners, equity holders, employees, agents, contractors, and their successor or assigns (collectively, the “AliveCor Group”) on demand, from and against any and all fines, penalties, liabilities, losses and other damages of any kind whatsoever (including attorneys’ and experts’ fees), incurred by any of the members of the AliveCor Group, and, if directed by AliveCor, shall defend the AliveCor Group against (1) all claims that any information, data or other materials provided by You in connection with your use of the Website or the Application (including Your application for registration to access and use the Application or Website) or these Terms and Conditions, or use thereof by any member of the AliveCor Group, infringes, misappropriates or otherwise violates any patent, trademark, copyright, trade secret or other intellectual property or proprietary right of a third party; (2) all claims arising from fraud committed by, or the intentional misconduct, criminal acts or gross negligence of, You; and (3) all claims otherwise arising due to a failure by You to comply with any term or condition of these Terms and Conditions, including any additional instructions, guidelines or policies issued by AliveCor, including those posted in the Application or on the Website.
If a dispute arises under these Terms and Conditions between You and any member of the AliveCor Group, such dispute shall be resolved, at the filing party’s election, in either a small claims court or by final and binding arbitration administered by the National Arbitration Forum or the American Arbitration Association, under their rules for consumer arbitrations. All disputes in arbitration will be handled solely between the named parties, and not on any representative or class basis. ACCORDINGLY, YOU ACKNOWLEDGE THAT IT MAY NOT HAVE ACCESS TO A COURT (OTHER THAN A SMALL CLAIMS COURT) OR JURY. Notwithstanding any other provision of these Terms and Conditions, any member of the AliveCor Group may resort to court action for injunctive relief at any time if, in its good faith belief, the dispute resolution procedures described in this Section 11.1 would permit or cause irreparable injury to such member of the AliveCor Group or any third party claiming against a member of the AliveCor Group, due to delay arising out of such dispute resolution procedures.
11.2.

These Terms and Conditions any additional instructions, guidelines or policies issued by AliveCor, including those posted in the Application or on the Website constitute the entire agreement of the Parties with regard to Your use of the Application and the Website, and all matters addressed herein, and all prior agreements, letters, proposals, discussions and other documents regarding the Application or the Website and the matters herein are superseded and merged into these Terms and Conditions.
12.2.
