Notwithstanding any other provision in this Agreement, Customer agrees that HEADCHECK may de-identify the Customer Data such that it can no longer identify or be associated with Customer or any User or Athlete (“De-identified Data”) and may use and disclose the De-identified Data to third parties for any lawful purpose, including to improve products or services, develop new products or services or conduct research.

- WARRANTIES; DISCLAIMERS.
5.1. Warranties. Each party represents and warrants that it has the power to enter into this Agreement. Customer represents and warrants to HEADCHECK that it is authorized to share the Customer Data with HEADCHECK for the purposes of providing the Application and Services and as otherwise contemplated by this Agreement. HEADCHECK represents and warrants to Customer that the Application will perform in all material respects in accordance with the Documentation. HEADCHECK represents and warrants that the Application, and Customer represents and warrants that the Customer Data, will, in each case, be free of any virus, Trojan Horse, cancelbot, timebombs or other devices developed to disable or to erase, damage or corrupt software, hardware or data. Customer represents and warrants that, to the best of its knowledge, its use of the Application will comply with all applicable laws, including but not limited to the Personal Information Protection and Electronic Documents Act and the Health Insurance Portability and Accountability Act of 1996.
5.2. Warranty Disclaimers. THE REPRESENTATIONS AND WARRANTIES EXPRESSLY SET FORTH IN THIS SECTION 5 ARE THE SOLE AND EXCLUSIVE REPRESENTATIONS AND WARRANTIES GIVEN BY THE PARTIES AND, TO THE MAXIMUM EXTENT PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE LAW, THE APPLICATION AND SERVICES ARE PROVIDED ON A “WHERE IS” AND “AS IS” BASIS, AND THE USE OF THE APPLICATION AND SERVICES IS AT THE SOLE RISK OF THE CUSTOMER AND THE USERS. HEADCHECK DISCLAIMS ANY AND ALL REPRESENTATIONS, WARRANTIES AND CONDITIONS TO THE MAXIMUM EXTENT PERMITTED BY LAW, WHETHER EXPRESS, IMPLIED, LEGAL OR STATUTORY, INCLUDING, WITHOUT LIMITATION, REPRESENTATIONS, WARRANTIES AND CONDITIONS (A) THAT THE APPLICATION OR SERVICES WILL MEET CUSTOMER’S OR USERS’ REQUIREMENTS OR BE AVAILABLE ON AN UNINTERRUPTED, SECURE OR ERROR-FREE BASIS, (B) AS TO THE ACCURACY, RELIABILITY, COMPLETENESS, OR CORRECTNESS OF THE APPLICATION OR SERVICES OR OF ANY TEST RESULTS OR OTHER CONTENT MADE AVAILABLE IN CONNECTION WITH THE APPLICATION OR SERVICES, (C) OF MERCHANTABILITY, QUALITY, OR FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE, AND (D) ARISING FROM COURSE OF DEALING OR USAGE OF TRADE. HEADCHECK DOES NOT WARRANT THAT THE APPLICATION OR SERVICES ARE ERROR FREE, THAT CUSTOMER OR USERS WILL BE ABLE TO ACCESS OR USE THE APPLICATION OR SERVICES WITHOUT PROBLEMS OR INTERRUPTIONS, OR THAT THE APPLICATION IS NOT SUSCEPTIBLE TO INTRUSION, ATTACK OR COMPUTER VIRUS INFECTION. HEADCHECK WILL NOT BE LIABLE FOR DAMAGES ARISING FROM ANY BREACH OF, UNAUTHORIZED ACCESS TO, MISUSE OF, LOSS OF, CORRUPTION OF, OR INTRUSION INTO, CUSTOMER DATA.
5.3. Not Medical Advice. The Application, including any tests performed using the Application or Services, the results and analyses thereof, and materials provided through the Application or Services, are provided for informational purposes only and do not constitute medical advice or other professional advice or opinion, and do not represent a comprehensive or specific analysis of your or any other person’s medical situation. HEADCHECK does not offer personalized medical advice or patient-specific treatment advice. Only a treating doctor, or other qualified treating healthcare professional, can determine if a diagnosis or treatment described by the Application or Services is appropriate for you or any other person. Use of the Application or Services is not a substitute for a call or visit to, or consultation with, a physician or healthcare professional. If Customer or any User believes that a person (including but not limited to an Athlete) has suffered a concussion or is affected by some other medical condition, whether or not the test results support this belief, the Customer or such User should immediately stop using the Application and Services and seek professional medical advice or consult with a qualified medical professional. A PERSON SHOULD NEVER DISREGARD OR DELAY SEEKING PROFESSIONAL MEDICAL ADVICE, OR ADVISE SOMEONE TO DISREGARD OR DELAY SEEKING PROFESSIONAL ADVICE, BECAUSE OF SOMETHING THAT WAS SEEN ON THE APPLICATION OR SERVICES OR OTHERWISE IN CONNECTION WITH THE USE OF THE APPLICATION OR SERVICES. PLEASE CONSULT, AND ADVISE OTHERS TO CONSULT, WITH A DOCTOR, OR OTHER QUALIFIED HEALTHCARE PROFESSIONAL, BEFORE RELYING ON ANY DIAGNOSIS OR TREATMENT DISCUSSED ON OR PRESENTED THROUGH THE APPLICATION OR SERVICES.
5.4. Warnings. Failure to follow all instructions or to heed any warnings or precautions could result in serious injury. The Application requires a certified medical professional to interpret data and make a clinical decision. Misuse of the Application by non-certified individuals could lead to incorrect diagnosis and severe and permanent injury up to and including death. Symptoms of a concussion can take up to 72 hours to present themselves, and thus introduces a limitation of the Application. If symptoms do not present themselves, and if an Athlete is returned to sport and receives another blow to the head, it could result in severe and permanent injury up to and including death. Technical issues (including no internet access by the Customer or User) can sometimes occur which restrict access to the Application that stores historical test data and baseline data. The historical test information is helpful to medical professionals making sideline decisions with respect to diagnosing concussions. Using the Application with limited or no internet access could result in an early return-to-play, and potentially a second impact leading to permanent injury up to and including death. Inaccurate results can arise due to potential bugs/software glitches, loss or corruption of data, or data being rendered inaccurate. There is a risk that some versions of the Application may be released with bugs which could change the results of some sections of the test. There is a risk of unforeseen circumstances around data corruption. In a worst-case scenario, inaccurate scores could result in a medical professional leaving an athlete in a game when he/she should have been removed.
5.5. Use of the Application by Children. The Application and Services are not intended to attract children under the age of 13. In accordance with local regulations (such as the Children’s Online Privacy Protection Act “COPPA”), the Company will not knowingly collect or accept, and Customer and its Users shall not provide, personally identifiable information from a child online under the age of 13 without a parent’s or guardian’s prior consent.
5.6. Customer Collection of Data From Children. Each institutional User represents and warrants that, to the extent it uses the Application or Services to collect personally identifiable information online from a child under 13, it does so with the consent of such child’s parent or guardian and in compliance with COPPA (to the extent applicable) and any other applicable law.
- INDEMNIFICATION.
6.1. Indemnification by HEADCHECK. HEADCHECK, at its expense, will defend and pay any settlement amounts or losses, liabilities, damages, costs and expenses (including reasonable legal fees) awarded by a court of final jurisdiction arising out of any third party claim, suit or proceeding alleging that Customer’s use of the Application in accordance with the terms and conditions of this Agreement infringes any Canadian or United States patent issued as of the Effective Date of any third party. The foregoing obligation will not apply with respect to a claim of infringement if such claim arises out of (i) compliance with Customer’s specifications, (ii) use of the Application in combination with any software, hardware, network or system not supplied or approved in writing by HEADCHECK, (iii) any modification or alteration of the Application (other than by HEADCHECK), (iv) where Customer or its Users continue the allegedly infringing activity after being informed of modifications that would have avoided the alleged infringement, or (v) use of the Application other than in accordance with the terms and conditions of this Agreement. If any claim which HEADCHECK is obligated to defend has occurred, or in HEADCHECK’s determination is likely to occur, HEADCHECK may, in its sole discretion and at its option and expense (a) obtain for Customer the right to use the allegedly infringing item, (b) substitute a functionality equivalent, non-infringing replacement for such item, (c) modify such item to make it non-infringing and functionally equivalent, or (d) terminate the Agreement and refund to Customer any Fees paid by Customer to HEADCHECK in an amount pro rated to reflect the period of time between the date Customer was unable to use the Application due to such claim and the remaining days in the Initial Term or current Additional Term, as the case may be.
6.2. Indemnification by Customer. Customer, at its expense, will defend and pay any settlement amounts or losses, liabilities, damages, costs and expenses (including reasonable legal fees) awarded by a court of final jurisdiction arising out of any third party claim, suit or proceeding (i) alleging that the Customer Data or HEADCHECK’s use thereof in accordance with the terms and conditions of this Agreement infringes, misappropriates or otherwise violates any intellectual property or other rights of any third party; (ii) arising from a breach of this Agreement, including a representation or warranty of the Customer contained in this Agreement; or (iii) arising from any use or non-use of the Application, the Documentation or the Services by Customer, its Users, or any other person authorized by Customer.
6.3. Conditions. The parties’ obligations under this Section are contingent upon the indemnified party (i) giving prompt written notice to the indemnifying party of any claim under this Section, (ii) giving the indemnifying party sole control of the defense or settlement of the claim, and (iii) cooperating in the investigation and defense of such claim(s). The indemnifying party will not settle or consent to a judgment in any such claim that adversely affects the rights or interests of the indemnified party or imposes additional obligations on the indemnified party, without the prior express written consent of the indemnified party. The rights and remedies set forth in this Section are the sole obligations of the indemnifying party and exclusive remedies available to the indemnified party in the event of an applicable third party claim.
6.4. Remedies. Without intending to limit the remedies available to HEADCHECK, Customer acknowledges that damages at law will be an insufficient remedy to HEADCHECK in view of the irrevocable harm which will be suffered if Customer violates any of the terms of this Agreement, and Customer agrees that HEADCHECK may apply for and have injunctive relief in any court of competent jurisdiction specifically to enforce any such covenants upon the breach or threatened breach of any such provisions, or otherwise specifically to enforce any such covenants, without the necessity of posting any bond.
- LIMITATION OF LIABILITY.
7.1. Limitation of Liability. Customer acknowledges that there are risks inherent in the use of the Application and Services (including any related hardware and internet connectivity) that may result in interruptions or errors in the service, loss of privacy, confidentiality, information or property, as well as other losses, damages or adverse occurrences, regardless of the measures taken to avoid such occurrences. To the maximum extent permitted by law, the entire risk arising out of the access to and use of the Services remains with Customer.
7.2. In no event will HEADCHECK, its Affiliates or its or their respective officers, directors, agents, employees, licensors, suppliers, vendors and representatives (collectively, the “HEADCHECK Parties”) be liable to Customer or any User or Athlete or any third party in contract, tort (including negligence), strict liability or otherwise, for any lost profits or for any indirect, incidental, special, exemplary, consequential or punitive damages, or lost profits, revenue or product use, or loss or inaccuracy of data, arising out of or in connection with (a) this Agreement, (b) the use of or inability to use the Application or Services, (c) the reliance (or non-reliance) on any test results, or (d) the inaccuracy or incompleteness of any test results, even if, in any such case, they are reasonably foreseeable and even if any HEADCHECK Party has been informed of the possibility of such damages. WITHOUT LIMITING THE FOREGOING, TO THE MAXIMUM EXTENT PERMITTED BY LAW, HEADCHECK DISCLAIMS ALL LIABILITY FOR ANY INJURY, DISEASE OR DEATH TO CUSTOMER, USER, ATHLETE OR ANY OTHER PERSON THAT IS CAUSED OR CONTRIBUTED TO BY THE APPLICATION OR SERVICES OR THE ACCESS TO OR USE THEREOF (INCLUDING WITHOUT LIMITATION ANY INJURY, DISEASE OR DEATH CAUSED OR CONTRIBUTED TO BY ANY RELIANCE OR NON-RELIANCE ON ANY TEST RESULTS). NOTWITHSTANDING THE FOREGOING, CUSTOMER’S SOLE REMEDIES FOR BREACH OF THE WARRANTIES OF HEADCHECK SET FORTH IN SECTION 5.1 SHALL BE REPAIR OR REPLACEMENT OF THE APPLICABLE FUNCTIONALITY IN THE APPLICATION.
7.3. THE TOTAL LIABILITY OF ALL HEADCHECK PARTIES, IN THE AGGREGATE, TO CUSTOMER IN RESPECT OF ALL CLAIMS UNDER OR IN CONNECTION WITH THIS AGREEMENT, WHETHER IN CONTRACT, TORT (INCLUDING NEGLIGENCE) OR OTHERWISE SHALL NOT EXCEED THE AMOUNT OF FEES PAID OR PAYABLE BY CUSTOMER UNDER THE APPLICABLE ORDER FORM FOR THE 12 MONTHS PRECEDING THE EVENT THAT GAVE RISE TO THE CLAIM.
7.4. Data Risk. By transmitting or receiving any data or information to or from HEADCHECK or any of its Affiliates through Customer’s use of the Application or Services or otherwise, Customer assumes all of the risks associated therewith, including the risk of interception of such data or information by third parties in any manner whatsoever, errors in the transmission of such data or information, and the risk of loss or corruption of any such data during transmission, storage or otherwise. Under no circumstances shall HEADCHECK be responsible for user error including, but not limited to, erroneous data input, misuse of the Application or Services, incorrect interpretation of data or missing data, or use in contravention of this Agreement or the Documentation.
7.5. Contract. The above limitations and restrictions are fundamental elements of the bargain between HEADCHECK and Customer.
