TERMS OF USE
For all those who have no wish to fall face first into
their keyboard with boredom, please stop reading this
page immediately and explore the rest of the site at
your leisure.
All others (masochists, mental patients, pedants, tax
lawyers, those who market herbal viagra) please continue.
Here goes:
This site is owned and operated by Broken Ankle Books
Pty. Ltd. By accessing or using it, you agree to the
terms set forth in this Terms of Use agreement as changed
when we become bored by the old Terms of Use.
(Which is, to be frank, just about always.)
Broken Ankle Books retains the right, at its discretion,
to change any of these terms in the future.
This site contains stuff that is owned or licensed
by Broken Ankle Books. You may not copy, reproduce,
upload, post, distribute, republish, retransmit, or
modify in any way any of the stuff on this site, including
computer code and software.
DON'T EVEN THINK ABOUT IT.
Provided that you retain any and all copyright, trademark
and other proprietary notices, you may download stuff
for your personal, non-commercial use, or for the purposes
of publicity.
(For those who may be worried: these Terms of Use do
not involve signatures in blood, human sacrifices, or
the unlawful bartering of souls.)
EXCLUSION OF LIABILITY
Why this section always appears IN GREAT
BIG ANGRY CAPS we will never know ...
YOUR USE OF THIS WEB SITE IS "AS IS",
AND BROKEN ANKLE BOOKS MAKES NO REPRESENTATIONS OR WARRANTIES,
EXPRESS OR IMPLIED, ABOUT ITS SITE OR THE STUFF CONTAINED
OR REFERRED TO ON IT, AND WILL NOT BE HELD LIABLE IN
ANY WAY FOR YOUR USE OF IT.
TO THE FULLEST EXTENT PERMISSIBLE PURSUANT
TO APPLICABLE LAW, BROKEN ANKLE BOOKS DISCLAIMS ALL
WARRANTIES, EXPRESS OR IMPLIED, INCLUDING IMPLIED WARRANTIES
OF MERCHANTABILITY AND FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE.
BROKEN ANKLE BOOKS FURTHER DOES NOT WARRANT
THAT ITS WEB SITE OR THE PRODUCTS AND STUFF CONTAINED
ON SUCH SITE ARE FLAWLESS AND WITHOUT ERROR, OR THAT
SUCH ERRORS WILL BE CORRECTED - WHO ON EARTH HAS THE
TIME? - OR THAT THIS SITE OR THE SERVER FROM WHICH IT
IS RUN IS FREE OF VIRUSES OR OTHER POTENTIALLY HARMFUL
CODES.
(We certainly hope we're free of harmful
codes, because that would be a real bore.)
UNDER NO CIRCUMSTANCES, INCLUDING NEGLIGENCE,
SHALL BROKEN ANKLE BOOKS OR ANY AFFILIATED COMPANY OR
INDIVIDUAL BE HELD LIABLE FOR ANY DIRECT, INDIRECT,
INCIDENTAL, SPECIAL OR CONSEQUENTIAL DAMAGES AND EXPENSES
WHATSOEVER (INCLUDING WITHOUT LIMITATION, HEALTH PROBLEMS,
LOST PROFITS, AND DAMAGES ARISING FROM LOST DATA, DASTARDLY
COMPUTER VIRUSES, DELETION OF FILES OR BUSINESS INTERRUPTION)
ARISING OUT OF OR IN ANY WAY CONNECTED WITH THE USE
OF THE BROKENANKLEBOOKS.COM SITE, OR FOR ANY INFORMATION
OR PRODUCTS OBTAINED THROUGH THE BROKENANKLEBOOKS.COM
SITE, WHETHER SUCH DAMAGES ARE BASED ON CONTRACT, TORT,
STRICT LIABILITY OR OTHERWISE, EVEN IF ADVISED OF THE
POSSIBILITY OF SUCH DAMAGES.
(How could anyone suffer a health problem
in association with our website? Aggravated intellectual
overstimulation? RSI? Psychosis induced by legal jargon?)
BROKEN ANKLE BOOKS RESERVES THE RIGHT
TO CHANGE OR DISCONTINUE AT ANY TIME ANY ASPECT OR FEATURE
OF THIS WEB SITE.
(Well - d'oh.)
INDEMNITY
You agree to defend, indemnify and hold
Broken Ankle Books and any affiliated company or individual
harmless from any and all liabilities, costs and expenses,
including reasonable legal fees, related to any violation
of these Terms by you or your authorized users, or in
connection with the use of the Web site or the Internet
or the placement or transmission of any message or information
on this Web site by you or your authorized users.
Broken Ankle Books shall provide notice
to you promptly of any such claim, suit or proceeding
and shall reasonably cooperate with you, at your expense,
in your defense of any such claim, suit or proceeding.
In short: do not sue us, or we will not
be happy.
TERMINATION
This agreement may be terminated by Broken
Ankle Books at any time without notice. In the event
of termination, you are no longer authorized to have
access to the site, and all limitations on Broken Ankle
Books' liability and on your use of Broken Ankle Books
stuff shall survive.
These Terms and Conditions, along with
any additional rules or conditions referred to herein
and the Broken Ankle Books Privacy Policy, constitute
the whole agreement and understanding between you and
Broken Ankle Books as to your use of the Broken Ankle
Books Web site, superseding all prior/current communications
and/or proposals.
These Terms and Conditions are able to
be severed, and in the event any provision is determined
to be invalid or unenforceable, such invalidity or unenforceability
shall not in any way affect the validity or enforceability
of the remaining provisions.
A printed version of these Terms and Conditions
shall be admissible in legal or other incredibly dull,
expensive and stressful proceedings based upon or relating
to use of the Broken Ankle Books Web site to the same
extent and subject to the same conditions as other business
documents and records originally generated and maintained
in printed form.
(Anyone manage to read this page without
skipping, say, a paragraph or three?)
Email (or even better - don't) any queries
to:
webmaster@brokenanklebooks.com
Please include TERMS OF USE in the subject
line (as that way, we know to ignore it).
