Clients retain ownership of their pre-existing trademarks, business information, content, photographs, and other materials.

28. Disclaimer of Warranties

TO THE MAXIMUM EXTENT PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE LAW, THE SERVICES ARE PROVIDED “AS IS” AND “AS AVAILABLE.”

Response Lane does not warrant that the Services will be uninterrupted, completely secure, error-free, or suitable for every particular purpose.

To the maximum extent permitted by law, Response Lane disclaims implied warranties including merchantability, fitness for a particular purpose, and non-infringement.

Nothing in these Terms excludes warranties or rights that applicable law does not permit to be excluded.

29. Limitation of Liability

TO THE MAXIMUM EXTENT PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE LAW, RESPONSE LANE WILL NOT BE LIABLE FOR INDIRECT, INCIDENTAL, SPECIAL, CONSEQUENTIAL, EXEMPLARY, OR PUNITIVE DAMAGES OR FOR LOST PROFITS, LOST REVENUE, LOST BUSINESS, LOST OPPORTUNITIES, LOST DATA, LOSS OF GOODWILL, OR BUSINESS INTERRUPTION ARISING FROM OR RELATING TO THE SERVICES.

To the maximum extent permitted by applicable law, Response Lane's aggregate liability arising from the Services will not exceed the amount paid by the applicable client to Response Lane for the Services giving rise to the claim during the three months immediately preceding the event giving rise to the claim.

These limitations apply only to the extent permitted by applicable law.

30. Indemnification

To the maximum extent permitted by applicable law, clients agree to defend, indemnify, and hold harmless Response Lane and its owners, personnel, contractors, and representatives from third-party claims, liabilities, damages, losses, and reasonable costs arising from:

Client-provided content or materials

Client instructions

The client's violation of applicable law

The client's violation of these Terms

Infringement caused by client-provided materials

Failure by the client to obtain required permissions or consents

This provision does not require indemnification where applicable law prohibits it.

31. Force Majeure

Response Lane will not be responsible for delay or failure caused by circumstances reasonably beyond its control, including natural disasters, severe weather, fire, power outages, internet outages, telecommunications failures, governmental actions, labor disruptions, war, civil disturbances, cyberattacks, widespread technology failures, or failures of third-party infrastructure.

32. Governing Law

Unless applicable law requires otherwise, these Terms are governed by the laws of the State of Colorado, without regard to conflict-of-law principles.

Response Lane may provide Services to clients and customers in other jurisdictions. Nothing in these Terms eliminates rights or protections that applicable law does not permit to be waived.

33. Informal Dispute Resolution

Before initiating formal legal proceedings, the parties agree to make a good-faith effort to resolve a dispute informally.

A party raising a dispute should provide written notice reasonably describing the issue and allow a reasonable opportunity for resolution.

A separately executed client agreement may contain additional dispute-resolution procedures, which will control where applicable.

34. Severability

If any provision of these Terms is determined to be invalid or unenforceable, it will be enforced to the maximum extent legally permitted or severed where necessary.

The remaining provisions will continue in effect.

35. No Waiver

Failure by Response Lane to enforce any provision of these Terms does not waive that provision or any other right.

36. Assignment

Clients may not assign their rights or obligations relating to the Services without Response Lane's prior written consent where permitted by law.

Response Lane may assign its rights or obligations in connection with a merger, acquisition, reorganization, sale of assets, financing, or similar business transaction, subject to applicable law.

37. Changes to These Terms

Response Lane may update these Terms as its Services, technology, business practices, or legal requirements change.

The current version will be posted with an updated effective date.

Where required by law, additional notice or consent will be provided.

38. Entire Agreement

These Terms, our Privacy Policy, and any applicable service agreement, proposal, order form, invoice terms, data-processing agreement, or other written agreement constitute the applicable agreement between Response Lane and the client regarding the Services.

If a separately signed agreement expressly conflicts with these Terms, the signed agreement controls with respect to that conflict.

39. Survival

Provisions that by their nature should continue after termination—including payment obligations, intellectual-property rights, confidentiality, disclaimers, liability limitations, indemnification, and dispute provisions—will survive termination to the extent permitted by law.
