DesignIreland's Liability

The Material may contain inaccuracies or typographical errors. DesignIreland makes no representations about the lawfulness, accuracy, reliability, completeness, or timeliness of the Material or about the results to be obtained from using the Site and the Material. In particular DesignIreland makes no warranties or representations as to the lawfulness, accuracy, reliability or quality of any professional opinions made available on the Site. The use of the Site and the Material is entirely at your own risk. Changes are periodically made to the Site and may be made at any time.

DesignIreland shall not be liable, and shall not otherwise be deemed to be in breach of this Agreement, for any failure to perform (or delay in performing) any of its obligations hereunder caused by circumstances beyond its reasonable control.

DesignIreland does not warrant that the site will operate error-free or that the site and its server are free of computer viruses or other harmful elements. If your use of the site or the material results in the need for servicing or replacing equipment or data, DesignIreland is not responsible for those costs.

The site and material are provided on an "as is" basis without any warranties of any kind. DesignIreland and its suppliers, to the fullest extent permitted by law, disclaim all conditions and warranties, express or implied including any warranty or terms of merchantability, non-infringement of third parties rights, quiet enjoyment and any warranty of fitness for particular purpose. DesignIreland and its suppliers make no warranties about the lawfulness, accuracy, reliability, completeness, or timeliness of the material or links.

You acknowledge and agree that the limitations set forth above are fundamental elements of this agreement and the Site would not be provided to you in the absence of such limitations.

Disclaimer of Consequential Damages

In no event shall DesignIreland, its suppliers, or any third parties mentioned at the site be liable for any damages whatsoever (including, without limitation, incidental, punitive, exemplary, special and consequential damages, lost profits, or damages resulting from lost data or business interruption) resulting from the use or inability to use the site and the material, whether based on statute, contract, tort (including negligence), or any other legal cause, and whether or not DesignIreland is advised of the possibility of such damages.

In the event that DesignIreland is found to be liable to you notwithstanding the disclaimers of liability contained in these Terms and Conditions the aggregate liability of DesignIreland to you for all claims arising from the use of the Site or Materials is limited to €100.

Indemnity

You agree to defend, indemnify, and hold harmless DesignIreland, its officers, directors, employees, agents and service providers, from and against any claims, actions or demands, including without limitation reasonable legal and accounting fees, alleging or resulting whether directly or indirectly from your use of the Site or Material (including software) or your breach of the terms of this Agreement. DesignIreland shall provide notice to you promptly of any such claim, suit, or preceding and shall assist you, at your expense, in defending any such claim, suit or proceeding.

Links to and from Other Web Sites

The Site contains links to third party Web Sites. These links are provided solely as a convenience to you and not as an endorsement by DesignIreland of the content on such third party Web Sites. DesignIreland is not responsible for the content of linked third party sites and does not make any representations regarding the content or accuracy of materials on such third party Web Sites. If you decide to access linked third-party Web Sites, you do so at your own risk and in accordance with the prevailing terms and conditions of such third party sites.

DesignIreland generally welcomes the hyper-linking to the Site from other appropriate Web Sites provided such links are to the Site's homepage (and no deeper within the Site) and provided we give our consent to the establishment of such links. Notwithstanding the foregoing, we reserve the absolute right to refuse to consent to such links without giving reasons. Any links to the Site from another Web Site must be presented in such a manner that the viewing of the Site is not impaired by framing or similar techniques that may impair the visitor's user experience.

General

Any disputes, claims or proceedings arising out of or in any way relating to the Materials or the Site shall be governed by the laws of Ireland. The Irish Courts shall have exclusive jurisdiction for the purpose of any proceedings arising out of or in any way relating to the Materials or the Site. Without prejudice to the foregoing, DesignIreland may seek provisional or protective relief in the courts of another State prior to, during or after any substantive proceedings have been instituted in Ireland and DesignIreland may bring enforcement proceedings in another state on foot of an Irish judgement.

If any provision of this Agreement is found to be invalid by any court having competent jurisdiction, the invalidity of such provision shall not affect the validity of the remaining provisions of this Agreement, which shall remain in full force and effect.

No waiver of any term of this Agreement shall be deemed a further or continuing waiver of such term or any other term.

DesignIreland may at any time and without liability modify, suspend or discontinue the Site or any Materials (or any part or specification thereof), with or without notice, for any valid technical, operational or commercial reasons.

This agreement constitutes the entire agreement between you and DesignIreland with respect to the use of the site.

I have read and understood the above terms and conditions and I understand that they are binding on me and govern my use of the DesignIreland.ie site.
