To the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, Strive Technical, its directors, employees, agents, and affiliates shall not be liable for any indirect, incidental, special, consequential, or punitive damages, including but not limited to loss of profits, data, business opportunities, goodwill, or other intangible losses, resulting from:

All content is provided on an "as is" and "as available" basis without warranties of any kind, either express or implied.

Nothing in these Terms shall exclude or limit our liability for death or personal injury arising from our negligence, fraud or fraudulent misrepresentation, or any other liability that cannot be excluded or limited by English law.

You agree to indemnify, defend, and hold harmless Strive Technical, its directors, officers, employees, agents, licensors, and service providers from and against any claims, liabilities, damages, judgments, awards, losses, costs, expenses, or fees (including reasonable legal fees) arising out of or relating to:

These Terms and any dispute or claim arising out of or in connection with them or their subject matter or formation (including non-contractual disputes or claims) shall be governed by and construed in accordance with the laws of England and Wales.

The courts of England and Wales shall have exclusive jurisdiction to settle any dispute or claim arising out of or in connection with these Terms or their subject matter or formation.

If any provision of these Terms is held to be invalid, illegal, or unenforceable by a court of competent jurisdiction, the remaining provisions shall continue in full force and effect. The invalid or unenforceable provision shall be modified to the minimum extent necessary to make it valid and enforceable while preserving its original intent.

In the event of any dispute arising out of or in connection with these Terms, we encourage you to contact us first to seek an amicable resolution. Many concerns can be resolved quickly and informally by reaching out to our team.

If we are unable to resolve a dispute informally, the parties agree to attempt in good faith to settle the matter through mediation before commencing any court proceedings. The mediation shall be conducted in Bristol, England, under the rules of the Centre for Effective Dispute Resolution (CEDR) or another mutually agreed mediation provider.

If the dispute cannot be resolved through mediation within 30 days of the appointment of a mediator, either party may commence court proceedings in accordance with Section 9 above.

Nothing in this section shall prevent either party from seeking injunctive or other equitable relief from the courts where necessary to protect its rights or interests.

We reserve the right to amend or update these Terms at any time. Changes will be effective immediately upon publication on this page with a revised "Last updated" date. We may also notify you of significant changes via email or a prominent notice on our Website.

It is your responsibility to review these Terms periodically. Your continued use of the Website or services after any changes have been published constitutes your acceptance of the revised Terms.
