Any additional Product-specific warranties and information about Our return, repair, and service policies for various Products can be found on Our page at liquidinstruments.com/support/warranty-repairs-and-service/#returns.
12.2 As applicable, if You consider that Our Product which you have purchased from Us or our authorized resellers and distributors are not of an acceptable quality, have a latent defect, or are otherwise not compliant with a Prescribed Term, you can make a claim for breach of a Prescribed Term (subject to the terms set forth in clause 11.6 above).
12.3 If You wish to make a claim for breach of a Prescribed Term or a breach of the defects warranty in clause 12.1 (together, a “Warranty Claim”), You must notify us by contacting Our nominated contact person as set out in clause 12.6 as soon as reasonably possible after the defect becomes evident setting out the nature of the defect.
12.4 We will not be liable for any breach of the defects warranty in clause 12.1 if You fail to notify us within 12 months of the supply of the Product, or You fail to provide written evidence to demonstrate the Product was purchased from Us or one of our authorized resellers and distributors.

The limited product warranties set forth in clause 12 will continue to apply to repaired or replaced Product for the remainder of the initial Warranty Term.

You are also entitled to have the goods repaired or replaced if goods fail to be of acceptable quality and the failure does not amount to a major failure.
13 FORCE MAJEURE
We will not be liable for any failure to meet any obligations to the extent that such failure is caused by or arises from:

(b) any other cause beyond Our reasonable control whether arising from natural causes or human agency,
and in such event We may (at Our discretion) elect to cancel that Order or extend the time for performance; provided that if a Force Majeure Event continues to prevent Our performance for a period of ninety (90) consecutive days or more, either party may cancel the affected Order by written notice to the other, in which case We will refund any amounts prepaid by You for the undelivered Products or Software covered by that Order. Unless otherwise agreed between the parties, except as provided in the preceding sentence, You will not be relieved of any obligation to accept or pay for goods by reason of any delay in delivery resulting from a Force Majeure Event.

- When You place an Order for Moku Compile, unless otherwise specified in the applicable Order, the initial term for such Order is one (1) year, subject to early termination pursuant to the terms hereof (the “Initial Term”), and Your license to Moku Compile will expire at the end of the Initial Term, unless You and We agree to renew Your Order prior to the expiration or termination of the Initial Term (the Initial Term and any renewals collectively, unless terminated earlier pursuant to the terms hereof, the “Term”).
- Termination for Breach. We may suspend or terminate Your rights to access Moku Cloud Compile or On-prem Moku Compile (as applicable) and/or this Agreement if You materially breach the Agreement (including unauthorized copying, distribution, or use beyond the licensed scope) and fails to cure such breach within 30 days. Upon termination for Your uncured breach, any licenses and rights granted to You hereunder will end immediately, and You shall promptly cease use and, at Our request, certify deletion or destruction of all copies of Our Products and documentations, except where retention is required by law.
- Upon any expiration or termination of the Term, the licenses granted to You hereunder will immediately terminate, except as otherwise provided under Section 8.5. The following provisions of this Moku Compile Agreement will survive any termination or expiration: Sections 3.3, 4, 5, 6, 8.3-8.5, 9 (with respect to fees accrued prior to such termination or expiration), 10.3, 10.4, 11 through 14.
- Following any expiration or termination of the Term, for Moku Cloud Compile, We will continue to store Your Customer Data in Your account associated with Moku Cloud Compile and make available such Customer Data to You with “read-only” access for ninety (90) days after the Term (“Transition Period”). During the Transition Period, You will only have “read-only” access to Moku Cloud Compile solely for the purpose of downloading your Customer Data but You will not be able to create any new or subsequent Compilations unless and until You renew Your Order or place another Order for Moku Cloud Compile . For clarity, if Your subscription of Moku Cloud Compile at the Premium or Enterprise tier expired, and if You effectively activate a subscription for the Base tier of Moku Compile prior to the expiry of the Transition Period, you may continue having access to and using Moku Cloud Compile and the Customer Data stored in Your account, subject to the limitations and restrictions applicable to the Base tier. After the Transition Period, if you do not place another Order for Moku Compile for a period of one (1) year, You agree and acknowledge that We reserve the right to irretrievably delete Customer Data (as well as Your account) at any time after the expiry of such one-year period (except for data retained pursuant to Our data retention policy).

You are responsible for the use of Moku Compile by any person to whom You have given access to Moku Compile, even if You did not authorize such use. If We receive any notice or claim that any Customer Data, or activities hereunder with respect to any Customer Data, may infringe or violate rights of a third party (a “Content Claim”), We may (but are not required to) suspend activity hereunder with respect to that Customer Data and You will indemnify Us from all liability, damages, settlements, attorney fees and other costs and expenses in connection with any such Content Claim, as incurred.
- Our right to use Customer Data is governed by the Data License set forth in Section 5.3(a) of the Trading Terms. Our right to generate and use Platform Analytics Data is governed by Section 5.3(c) of the Trading Terms. Notwithstanding the foregoing, as a product-specific restriction on the Data License with respect to Moku Compile:
- Opt-Out Right. If Your subscription is on the Premium Tier or Enterprise Tier, You have the right to opt out from Our use of Your Customer Data to develop, train, fine-tune, or improve machine learning or artificial intelligence models (as described in Section 5.3(a)(3)(B) of the Trading Terms) by configuring the administrative control expressly labeled for such purpose or by sending us an express opt-out notice at support@liquidinstruments.com, in which event We will not use Your Customer Data in our possession to develop, train, fine-tune, or improve any machine learning or artificial intelligence model (including large language models).

We do not warrant that Moku Compile or the Compilations made through Moku Compile will be compatible with or operate in any Product or software programs or any hardware which may be selected for use by You.
- Limitations of Liability. IN NO EVENT WILL WE NOR OUR AFFILIATES, AND OUR AND THEIR DIRECTORS, EMPLOYEES, AGENTS, PARTNERS, OR SUPPLIERS BE LIABLE UNDER CONTRACT, TORT, STRICT LIABILITY, NEGLIGENCE OR ANY OTHER LEGAL OR EQUITABLE THEORY WITH RESPECT TO THE SUBJECT MATTER OF THIS MOKU COMPILE AGREEMENT FOR (I) FOR ANY LOST PROFITS, DATA LOSS, COST OF PROCUREMENT OF SUBSTITUTE GOODS OR SERVICES, OR SPECIAL, INDIRECT, INCIDENTAL, PUNITIVE, OR CONSEQUENTIAL DAMAGES OF ANY KIND WHATSOEVER, SUBSTITUTE GOODS OR SERVICES (HOWEVER ARISING), (II) FOR ANY BUGS, VIRUSES, TROJAN HORSES, OR THE LIKE (REGARDLESS OF THE SOURCE OF ORIGINATION), OR (III) FOR ANY DIRECT DAMAGES IN EXCESS OF (IN THE AGGREGATE) THE FEES PAID (OR PAYABLE) BY YOU TO US HEREUNDER IN THE TWELVE (12) MONTHS PRIOR TO THE EVENT GIVING RISE TO A CLAIM HEREUNDER.

To the extent there is any conflict between the terms of this Moku Compile Agreement and the Trading Terms, the terms of this Moku Compile Agreement shall control with respect to the subject matter covered by this Moku Compile Agreement. We reserve the right, at Our sole discretion, to amend any of the provisions of this Moku Compile Agreement at any time by posting a notice on Our website or by sending You a written notice. If You do not agree to any amendment, You have the right to use Moku Compile subscribed by You until the expiration or earlier termination of the then-current subscription term under the Order You entered into prior to such amendment, which will continue to be subject to the prior version of this Moku Compile Agreement (without such amendment). Placing any Order for Moku Compile following the effective date of any such amendment constitute Your agreement to any such amendment.
