7. Disclaimers  

KHI LEARNING AND ITS CONTENT ARE PROVIDED “AS IS,” “AS AVAILABLE,” AND “WITH ALL FAULTS,” AND KHI DISCLAIMS ALL WARRANTIES OF ANY KIND, EXPRESS OR IMPLIED INCLUDING WITHOUT LIMITATION, REGARDING ACCURACY, COMPLETENESS, TIMELINESS, TRANSLATION, ACCESS, COMPATIBILITY, MERCHANTABILITY, FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE, TITLE AND NON-INFRINGEMENT. Course content is intended for educational purposes and does not constitute professional, medical or legal advice. KHI does not warrant that KHI Learning will be uninterrupted, error-free, free of viruses or malware or secure. 

KHI is not responsible for the function or outcome of any artificial intelligence system. Artificial intelligence systems could infringe or misappropriate intellectual property rights of third parties, disclose without authorization confidential information, commit plagiarism or generate inaccurate results. Should you choose to use artificial intelligence systems, you understand and acknowledge that your input could be used to train the artificial intelligence system and could be used to produce any outcome that you have not authorized or provided license to. You accept and acknowledge that you should not disclose any confidential information to the artificial intelligence system, as there is no agreement in place to protect such information. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in these Terms, KHI cannot and will not be held liable to you or any third party for any form of damages arising out of your use of any provided artificial intelligence systems in the System, including but not limited to, inaccurate results, intellectual property rights infringement of a third party, decisions or actions taken by you in reliance upon such results out of the use of the artificial intelligence system or any published outcome by you that could create any kind of liability. 

8. Limitation of Liability  

To the maximum extent permitted by law, KHI is not liable for any indirect, special, exemplary, punitive, incidental or consequential damages arising from these Terms, your use of KHI Learning or the Content, or KHI’s performance or non-performance, or any other reason, whether in an action of contract or tort (including, without limitation, negligence), whether or not KHI has been advised of the possibility of such damages. In addition, KHI’s maximum liability and your sole remedies will not exceed the amounts actually paid by you to KHI within the 90-day period prior to the claim with respect to the direct cause of the claim. You must promptly notify KHI in writing of any claim arising out of or related to these Terms, the Content, the Services or KHI’s performance or non-performance, but in no case more than 30 days after you knew or should have known of the claim. You may not maintain any such claim for which timely notice has not been made, but in no case more than one year after the cause of action accrues. 

The laws of some jurisdictions may prohibit the disclaimer of certain warranties or limitations on the remedies for their breach. To the extent any such laws apply and may not be waived by you, the applicable disclaimers and limitations of liability in these Terms are modified to the extent necessary to comply with such laws.  

If KHI is unable to perform any obligation because of any event beyond its reasonable control and/or causes making it illegal, impossible or commercially impractical, including without limitation, acts of God; strikes or labor disputes; failure of the internet, network or communications providers; failure of platform providers; or governmental orders or restrictions, KHI will be relieved from its performance to the extent, and for the duration, that such performance is delayed or prevented by such event or cause. 

9. Termination and Remedies 

You may cancel your use of the Services at any time upon notice to KHI. Without limiting the other conditions stated in these Terms, KHI may terminate your use of the Services (1) at any time for any reason or no reason on 30 days prior notice to you, or (2) immediately without prior notice if you breach or violate any obligation, representation or warranty of these Terms or any other contract or obligation to KHI.  

Upon termination or cancellation of your use of the Services, your license to use the Services and the Content will immediately cease. The rights and obligations of Sections 5, 7, 8, 9. 10, 11, and 12 will survive any cancellation or termination. 

Without limiting any other remedies, if KHI seeks to enforce or chooses to defend a claim arising out of or related to the Agreement, you will pay KHI’s costs and expenses arising therefrom or related thereto, including without limitation, attorneys’ fees, to the extent that KHI substantially prevails in such enforcement or defense.
