SittersSearch DOES NOT PROVIDE FINANCIAL SERVICES, REAL ESTATE BROKERAGE SERVICES, SECURITY BROKERAGE SERVICES, HOME LENDING OR MORTGAGE SERVICES. NOTHING IN SittersSearch ESTABLISHES A PROFESSIONAL OR FIDUCIARY RELATIONSHIP WITH YOU. ALL INFORMATION, CONTENT AND COMMUNICATIONS SHOULD BE INDEPENDENTLY VERIFIED BY YOUR OWN PROFESSIONAL ADVISERS. Limitation of Liability. YOU AGREE SittersSearch IS NOT LIABLE FOR ANY DIRECT DAMAGES EXCEEDING THE AMOUNT, IF ANY, ACTUALLY PAID TO IT BY YOU DURING THE SIX (6) MONTHS PRECEDING THE EVENT GIVING RISE TO YOUR CLAIM. IN NO EVENT IS SittersSearch LIABLE WHETHER IN CONTRACT, TORT (INCLUDING, WITHOUT LIMITATION, NEGLIGENCE, STRICT LIABILITY OR OTHERWISE), FOR ANY INDIRECT, PUNITIVE, SPECIAL, EXEMPLARY, INCIDENTAL OR CONSEQUENTIAL DAMAGES (INCLUDING, WITHOUT LIMITATION, LOST SAVINGS, LOST PROFIT, LOST GOODWILL, LOST OR CORRUPTED DATA OR BUSINESS INTERRUPTION) EVEN IF NOTIFIED IN ADVANCE OF SUCH POSSIBILITY. THIS LIMITATION IS A MATERIAL CONDITION TO THIS AGREEMENT, IS COMMERCIALLY REASONABLE AND HAS BEEN FACTORED INTO THE AGREEMENT AS A WHOLE.

THE WARRANTY DISCLAIMERS, LIABILITY LIMITS, INDEMNITIES AND RESERVATION OF RIGHTS CONTAINED IN THIS AGREEMENT PROTECT SittersSearch, ITS OFFICERS, DIRECTORS, OWNERS, AGENTS, CONSULTANTS, ADVISERS, EMPLOYEES, AFFILIATES, ADVERTISERS, DISTRIBUTORS, RESELLERS, SUPPLIERS, PUBLISHERS AND PROMOTERS. FORCE MAJEURE. SittersSearch is not responsible for any delay or failure in performance of SittersSearch in whole or in part for any reason including, without limitation: fires, floods, storms, earthquakes, civil disturbances, war, terrorism, disruption of telecommunications, transportation, utilities, services or supplies, governmental action, computer viruses, corruption of data, hacker attack, incompatible or defective equipment, software or services or otherwise. Nothing herein enlarges any warranty or diminishes any disclaimer under this Agreement. NO OUTSIDE CONTACTS. Because of the uncertainty and lack of uniformity of laws in other jurisdictions (particularly as applied to Internet sites), it is important to agree that SittersSearch operates solely in Union County, New Jersey (our "Locality"). You are using the Internet as your own agent to access and use SittersSearch from the local Internet point of presence (POP) here in our Locality and you are using the Internet or public carrier as your local agent to take delivery of any information, products or services in our Locality. This means all operations, services, deliveries, performance and contacts of SittersSearch occur solely in our Locality. SittersSearch does not submit to personal jurisdiction anywhere else and you irrevocably waive any claim to the contrary. INJUNCTIVE RELIEF. If you violate or exceed the scope of this Agreement or infringe our proprietary rights, you agree we would be irreparably harmed and may (in addition to other relief and without having to post bond) obtain a court order enjoining you from further mischief.

YOU AGREE TO INITIATE AND MAINTAIN ANY LEGAL ACTION IN NEW JERSEY AND IRREVOCABLY CONSENT TO EXCLUSIVE PERSONAL JURISDICTION AND VENUE THEREIN. YOU ARE RESPONSIBLE FOR COMPLYING WITH YOUR OWN LOCAL LAWS, WHICH MAY VARY WITH RESPECT TO CERTAIN ACTIVITIES OR PEOPLE (e.g., MINORS). You agree that U.S. District Courts can hear cases involving copyright issues between us. Since we make no warranties and have limited our liabilities, you should have little reason to have a grievance with us. Should you nevertheless bring legal action against us, you irrevocably agree it will be brought and maintained within one (1) year after the claim arises or be barred. As disincentive for unwarranted litigation, you agree that if you sue us and don't win on the merits, you will pay our defense costs, including, without limitation, reasonable legal fees for in-house and outside counsel. If we are required to enforce this Agreement or our rights, you agree it is reasonable to send you legal notices and papers by electronic mail at your stated address (we would also attempt to send you a backup copy by regular mail). TECHNOLOGY & DATA TRANSFER. Technology Transfer. The transport of technology, technical data and information across national boundaries is regulated by the U.S. and certain foreign governments. You agree not to directly or indirectly export or re-export any information, software or technology obtained from or through SittersSearch that requires an export license or governmental approval without first obtaining that license or approval. This provision will survive termination of our Agreement. RELATIONSHIP OF PARTIES. There are no third party beneficiaries of this Agreement.

SittersSearch is not responsible for any employment decision made by any user of SittersSearch.

Waiver of a provision in one instance shall not preclude our enforcement of it on future occasions. Headings are for reference purposes only and have no substantive effect. POLICY REGARDING TERMINATION OF USERS AND ACCOUNT HOLDERS WHO REPEATEDLY INFRINGE THE COPYRIGHT OR OTHER INTELLECTUAL PROPERTY RIGHTS OF OTHERS. The unauthorized reproduction, copying, distribution, modification, public display or public performance of copyrighted works constitutes copyright infringement. As a condition to your use of SittersSearch, you agree not to use SittersSearch to infringe the intellectual property rights of others in any way.
