Unless the upgrade of the Solution has only a minor impact on Subscriber or KASPR allows Subscriber to keep the Solution and/or Database without the upgrade and subject to the Services remain compliant, Subscriber may terminate this contract rightfully and without charge. However, the Subscriber shall proceed with this termination within a maximum period of thirty (30) days, which shall entail the consequences set forth in Article 7.5.
In all cases, the amount of KASPR’s liability is strictly limited to the reimbursement of the amount of the sums actually paid by the User on the occurrence date of the event.
It is also specified that KASPR does not control websites that are directly or indirectly linked to the Site and the Solution. Accordingly, it excludes all liability for the information published therein. Links to third party websites are provided for informational purposes only and no warranty is provided for their content.
13. "FORCE MAJEURE"
KASPR’s liability may not be implemented if the non-performance or delay in the performance of any of its obligations described in these TCUS results from a case of “force majeure”.
“Force majeure” in contractual matters occurs when an event beyond the control of the debtor, which could not reasonably have been foreseen at the time the contract was concluded and the effects of which cannot be avoided by appropriate measures, prevents the debtor from fulfilling his obligation.
If the impediment is temporary, performance of the obligation is suspended unless the resulting delay justifies the termination of the contract. If the impediment is permanent, the contract is automatically terminated and the parties are released from their obligations under the conditions laid down in Articles 1351 and 1351-1 of the French Civil Code.
In the event of any of the above events, KASPR will endeavour to inform the User as soon as possible.
