Disclaimers and Limitation of Liability

The information, software, products, and services included in, or available through, the site may include inaccuracies or typographical errors.  Accredicity may make improvements and/or changes to the forgoing or the site at any time.

Accredicity makes no representations or waranties about the suitability, reliability, availability, timeliness, and accuracy of the information, software, products, services and related graphics available on the site for any purpose. To the maximum extent permitted by applicable law, all such information, software, products, services and related graphics are provided “as is” without any warranty or condition of any kind.  International Accredicity and/or its suppliers hereby specifically disclaim any and all warranties, express, implied, statutory or otherwise, to the information, software, products, services and related graphics, including (but not limited to) any implied warranty of merchantability, fitness for a particular purpose, title, non-infringement, or the continuous, uninterrupted, error-free, virus-free, or secure access to or operation of the site and/or related services.

Because some states/jurisdictions do not allow the exclusion or limitation of liability for consequential or incidental damages, the above limitation may not apply to you. To the extent that any warranty or limitation of liability cannot be excluded, Accredicity’s liability for breach for such warranty is limited (at Accredicity’s election): (a) in the case of goods, a refund, repair, or replacement of the goods or payment equal to the cost of repair or replacement of the goods; (b) in the case of services, the resupply of the services or payment of the cost of the resupply of the services. You agree to take reasonable action to mitigate your damages.
