Our Content

The Service and its original content, features, and functionality are owned by iNeedShortURL and are protected by international copyright, trademark, patent, trade secret, and other intellectual property laws.

To the maximum extent permitted by applicable law, iNeedShortURL shall not be liable for any indirect, incidental, special, consequential, or punitive damages, or any loss of profits or revenues, whether incurred directly or indirectly, or any loss of data, use, goodwill, or other intangible losses.

Our total liability to you for any damages arising from or related to this agreement shall not exceed the amount you have paid us in the twelve (12) months preceding the event giving rise to the liability.

Some jurisdictions do not allow the exclusion or limitation of liability for consequential or incidental damages, so the above limitation may not apply to you.

You agree to defend, indemnify, and hold harmless iNeedShortURL and its officers, directors, employees, and agents from and against any claims, liabilities, damages, judgments, awards, losses, costs, expenses, or fees arising out of or relating to:

• Your violation of these Terms

You may terminate your account at any time by contacting us. Upon termination, your right to use the Service will cease immediately.

All provisions of the Terms which by their nature should survive termination shall survive termination, including, without limitation, ownership provisions, warranty disclaimers, indemnity, and limitations of liability.

Your privacy is important to us. Please review our Privacy Policy, which also governs your use of the Service, to understand our practices.

These Terms shall be interpreted and governed by the laws of the State of California, United States, without regard to its conflict of law provisions.

Our failure to enforce any right or provision of these Terms will not be considered a waiver of those rights.

We reserve the right, at our sole discretion, to modify or replace these Terms at any time. If a revision is material, we will provide at least 30 days notice prior to any new terms taking effect.

What constitutes a material change will be determined at our sole discretion. By continuing to access or use our Service after any revisions become effective, you agree to be bound by the revised terms.

If any provision of these Terms is held to be unenforceable or invalid, such provision will be changed and interpreted to accomplish the objectives of such provision to the greatest extent possible under applicable law and the remaining provisions will continue in full force and effect.

These Terms constitute the sole and entire agreement between you and iNeedShortURL regarding the Service and supersede all prior and contemporaneous understandings, agreements, representations, and warranties, both written and oral, regarding the Service.
