Disclaimer of Warranties:

Except as provided above, this Software and any related services are provided "as-is", and to the maximum extent permitted by applicable law, Taxsoftware.com and its suppliers disclaim all other representations and warranties, express or implied, regarding the Software, disks, and related materials, including their fitness for a particular purpose, their quality, their  merchantability, or their noninfringement. Taxsoftware.com does not warrant that the Software is free from bugs, errors, or other program limitations. The entire risk as to results and performance of the Software is assumed by you. Should the Software prove defective, you, and not Taxsoftware.com, assume the entire cost of all necessary servicing, repair or correction. Further, Taxsoftware.com does not warrant, guarantee or make any representations regarding the use of, or the results of the use of the Software in terms of correctness, accuracy, reliability, currentness, or otherwise. You rely on the program and results solely at your own risk. Some States do not allow the exclusion of implied warranties, so the above exclusions may not apply to you. In that event, any implied warranties are limited in duration to thirty (30) days from the date of purchase of the Software. However, some States do not allow limitations on how long an implied warranty lasts, so the above limitation may not apply to you. This warranty gives you specific legal rights, and you may have other additional rights which vary from State to State.

Additionally, while the Software and related services are designed to be effective tools for preparing 2000-2010 U.S. Federal Income Tax Returns, Taxsoftware.com and its Representatives cannot take responsibility for the results of your use of the Software. Tax laws and regulations change frequently and their application can vary widely based upon the specific facts and circumstances involved. Users are strongly encouraged to consult with their own professional tax advisor, accountant or tax lawyer concerning their specific tax circumstances before filing their tax returns. The ultimate responsibility for ascertaining and interpreting current tax law and completing and filing a correct tax return rests with you, not Taxsoftware.com. Taxsoftware.com disclaims any responsibility for the accuracy or adequacy of any positions taken by users in their tax returns.

Limitation of Liability and Damages:

The entire liability of Taxsoftware.com for any reason shall be limited to the amount paid by the customer for the Software purchased from Taxsoftware.com. To the maximum extent permitted by applicable law, neither Taxsoftware.com, its directors, officers, employees, shareholders, agents, programmers, advertisers, subsidiaries, affiliates, licensors, participating financial institutions, third party content or service providers, distributors, dealers or suppliers, nor anyone else who has been involved in the creation, production, or delivery of the Software ("Representatives") shall be liable for any indirect, special, incidental, or consequential damages arising out of your use or misuse of, or inability to use, the Software (including, but not limited to damages for loss of business, loss of profits, loss of savings or investment, loss of anticipated benefits, or the like), or for any claim by another party, whether based on breach of contract, breach of warranty, tort (including negligence), product liability or otherwise, even if Taxsoftware.com or its Representative has been advised, or knows or should know of the possibility of such damages and even if a remedy set forth herein is found to have failed of its essential purpose. Taxsoftware.com and its Representatives shall not be liable for any damage to data or property which may be caused directly or indirectly by use of the Software. Taxsoftware.com and its Representatives' total liability to you for actual damages for any cause whatsoever will be limited to the amount paid by you for this Software. Some States do not allow the limitation and/or exclusion of liability for incidental or consequential damages, so the above limitation or exclusion may not apply to you.

The limitations of damages set forth above are fundamental elements of the basis of the bargain between Taxsoftware.com and you. Taxsoftware.com would not have provided this product or services without such limitations.
