Disclaimer of Warranties
TO THE MAXIMUM EXTENT PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE LAW, THE APP IS PROVIDED ON AN "AS IS" AND "AS AVAILABLE" BASIS WITHOUT ANY WARRANTIES OF ANY KIND, EITHER EXPRESS OR IMPLIED.
Holokraft expressly disclaims all warranties including, but not limited to:
- Any implied warranties of merchantability, fitness for a particular purpose, and non-infringement.
- Any warranty that the App will be uninterrupted, error-free, or completely secure.
- Any warranty regarding the accuracy, reliability, completeness, or timeliness of any content or data.
- Any warranty that defects in the App will be corrected.
You acknowledge that your use of the App is at your sole risk. We do not warrant that the App is free of viruses or other harmful components.
Some jurisdictions do not allow the exclusion of implied warranties, so some of the above exclusions may not apply to you.
Limitation of Liability
TO THE MAXIMUM EXTENT PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE LAW, IN NO EVENT SHALL HOLOKRAFT CONSULTING SERVICES (OPC) PVT LTD, ITS DIRECTORS, EMPLOYEES, PARTNERS, AGENTS, SUPPLIERS, OR AFFILIATES BE LIABLE FOR:

- Any damages arising from App outages or service interruptions.
In any case, our total aggregate liability to you for all claims under these Terms shall not exceed the amount you have paid to us in the twelve (12) months prior to the event giving rise to the claim, or INR 1,000 (whichever is greater). Since the App is currently free, this means our maximum aggregate liability is INR 1,000.
These limitations apply regardless of the legal theory (contract, tort, negligence, or otherwise) and even if we have been advised of the possibility of such damages. Some jurisdictions do not allow these limitations, so they may not apply to you.
Important: We strongly recommend maintaining your own backups of critical information. While we implement robust cloud sync and backup systems, we are not liable for any loss of User Content due to technical failures, connectivity issues, or other unforeseen circumstances.

You agree to defend, indemnify, and hold harmless Holokraft Consulting Services (OPC) Pvt Ltd, its directors, employees, contractors, agents, licensors, and service providers from and against any claims, liabilities, damages, judgments, awards, losses, costs, expenses, or fees (including reasonable attorneys' fees) arising out of or relating to:
