If you are buying a Kane Analyser service, we make reasonable endeavours to remind you to return the Kane Analyser in time for annual service, recertification and repair if it is correctly registered on our web site and the customer contact details kept up-to-date. However, we do not accept any responsibility nor have any liability if we fail to remind you to return the Kane Analyser for annual service, recertification and repair or if you fail to receive our reminders. We accept no responsibility nor liability, and hereby exclude the same, to check who owns any Kane Analyser or any product the Customer supplies to us for service, recertification or repair. UKAS calibrations are only available for gas, temperature, and pressure measurements within our scope of accreditation. Refer to www.ukas.com for the current scope.
13.3 You agree that from time to time we may remove the service for indefinite periods of time or cancel the service at any time, without notice to you.
13.4 You expressly agree that your use of, or inability to use, the service is at your sole risk. The service and all products and services delivered to you through the service are (except as expressly stated by us) provided 'as is' and 'as available' for your use, without any representation, warranties or conditions of any kind, either express or implied, including all implied warranties or conditions of satisfactory quality, fitness for a particular purpose, durability, title, and non-infringement other than the express warranties where you purchase chargeable goods or services as set out in our standard terms and conditions for sale of goods and services and otherwise as required by law.
13.5 In no case shall Kane International Ltd, our directors, officers, employees, affiliates, agents, contractors, interns, suppliers, service providers or licensors be liable for any injury, loss, claim, or any direct, indirect, incidental, punitive, special, or consequential damages of any kind, including, without limitation lost profits, lost revenue, lost savings, loss of data, replacement costs, or any similar damages, whether based in contract, tort (including negligence), strict liability or otherwise, arising from your use of any of the service or any products procured using the service, or for any other claim related in any way to your use of the service or any product, including, but not limited to, any errors or omissions in any content, or any loss or damage of any kind incurred as a result of the use of the service or any content (or product) posted, transmitted, or otherwise made available via the service, even if advised of their possibility. Because some states or jurisdictions do not allow the exclusion or the limitation of liability for consequential or incidental damages, in such states or jurisdictions, our liability shall be limited to the maximum extent permitted by law.
13.6 However nothing in these terms shall exclude or limit our liability for death or personal injury caused by our negligence nor for fraud. In any event our liability for direct loss shall be limited to the fees paid by a purchaser of our goods or services or otherwise as specified in our standard terms and conditions for sale of goods and services.
SECTION 14 - INDEMNIFICATION
You agree to indemnify, defend and hold harmless Kane International Ltd and our parent, subsidiaries, affiliates, partners, officers, directors, agents, contractors, licensors, service providers, subcontractors, suppliers, interns and employees, harmless from any claim or demand, including reasonable legal fees, made by any third-party due to or arising out of your breach of these Terms of Service or the documents they incorporate by reference, or your violation of any law or the rights of a third-party.
SECTION 15 - SEVERABILITY
In the event that any provision of these Terms of Service is determined to be unlawful, void or unenforceable, such provision shall nonetheless be enforceable to the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, and the unenforceable portion shall be deemed to be severed from these Terms of Service, such determination shall not affect the validity and enforceability of any other remaining provisions.

16.4 The termination rights in this clause are in addition to any rights to terminate of either party where you purchase chargeable services or goods under our standard terms and conditions for sale of goods and services.

SECTION 18 - GOVERNING LAW AND DISPUTES
