TO THE MAXIMUM EXTENT ALLOWED BY APPLICABLE LAW AND NOTWITHSTANDING ANY FAILURE OF ESSENTIAL PURPOSE OF ANY LIMITED REMEDY OR LIMITATION OF LIABILITY: (A) IN NO EVENT WILL ANY AUTODESK PARTY BE LIABLE UNDER THESE TERMS FOR SPECIAL, INDIRECT, CONSEQUENTIAL OR OTHER DAMAGES OF ANY KIND WHATSOEVER (HOWEVER CAUSED AND REGARDLESS OF THE THEORY OF LIABILITY, WHETHER DERIVED FROM CONTRACT, TORT (INCLUDING NEGLIGENCE) OR OTHERWISE), OR ANY LOSS OF PROFITS, LOSS OF REVENUE, LOSS OF USE, LOSS OF DATA, BUSINESS INTERRUPTION, COST OF PROCUREMENT OF SUBSTITUTE GOODS OR SERVICES OR OTHER COVER, OR ANY OTHER COMMERCIAL OR ECONOMIC LOSS OF ANY KIND, EVEN IF ADVISED OF THE POSSIBILITY THEREOF, NOR WILL THE AUTODESK PARTIES BE LIABLE FOR ANY DAMAGES WHATSOEVER RESULTING FROM A FORCE MAJEURE EVENT OR AN ACT OF A THIRD PARTY OR THROUGH NO FAULT ON ITS BEHALF; AND (B) THE TOTAL CUMULATIVE LIABILITY OF YOU, AND THE TOTAL CUMULATIVE COLLECTIVE LIABILITY OF THE AUTODESK PARTIES, FOR ALL COSTS, LOSSES OR DAMAGES FROM ALL CLAIMS, ACTIONS OR SUITS, HOWEVER CAUSED, ARISING FROM OR RELATING TO THESE TERMS OR THE SUBJECT MATTER HEREOF WILL NOT EXCEED THE GREATER OF (i) ALL AMOUNTS PAID OR DUE FROM YOU FOR THE SERVICE GIVING RISE TO THE CLAIM DURING THE SIX (6) MONTHS IMMEDIATELY PRECEDING THE CLAIM (NO MATTER WHEN PAYMENTS WERE ACTUALLY MADE), OR (ii) TEN THOUSAND DOLLARS ($10,000).

13.4 Basis of the Bargain. You and Autodesk acknowledge and agree that the warranty disclaimers, limitations of liability, and indemnities in these Terms are a fundamental basis of the bargain between you and Autodesk, and are a material part of the consideration received by Autodesk for the provision of the Service and rights granted under these Terms, and Autodesk would not have entered into these Terms, or provided the Service or rights, in the absence of such warranty disclaimers, limitations of liability and indemnities.
14. Confidential Information.
14.1 Confidentiality obligations apply to information disclosed in connection with the Service. You or Autodesk (as the “Disclosing Party”) may disclose Confidential Information to the other party (the “Receiving Party”) in connection with the Service. The Receiving Party will not (and will not permit anyone else to) (a) use any Confidential Information of the Disclosing Party except as necessary for performance of the Receiving Party’s obligations and exercise of the Receiving Party’s rights under these Terms or (b) disclose any Confidential Information of the Disclosing Party to anyone other than the Receiving Party’s employees, contractors, service providers and agents who need to know such Confidential Information for such purposes, and who are subject to confidentiality obligations with the Receiving Party containing protections no less stringent than those in these Terms. To safeguard the Confidential Information, the Receiving Party will exercise the same degree of care it employs to prevent the unauthorized use and disclosure of its own confidential information, but in no event less than reasonable care. The Receiving Party may disclose Confidential Information of the Disclosing Party if it is compelled by law to do so provided the Receiving Party gives the Disclosing Party prior notice of such compelled disclosure (to the extent legally permitted). You agree that Autodesk may access and disclose Your Content to comply with any legal obligations or governmental or regulatory body request (including subpoenas or court orders), as part of a legal proceeding involving Autodesk Parties or at your request. You will not disclose these Terms to any third party without the prior written consent of Autodesk, except pursuant to a valid and enforceable order of a court or government agency. Autodesk does not guarantee the confidentiality of non-Autodesk information stored on systems connected to Autodesk’s network.
14.2 Injunctive Relief is available to Autodesk. You acknowledge and agree that your breach or threatened breach of this Section 14 may cause Autodesk irreparable harm and significant injury, the amount of which may be difficult to estimate and ascertain, thus making inadequate any remedy at law or in damages. Therefore, you agree that Autodesk is entitled to injunctive relief from any court of competent jurisdiction to enjoin any threatened or actual breach of these Terms and any other relief that such court deems appropriate, in addition to any other remedy or remedies available at law or in equity.
15. Indemnification. You will, at your sole expense and to the fullest extent permitted by Law, indemnify and hold harmless (and, at Autodesk's request, defend) the Autodesk Parties against any and all losses, liabilities, expenses (including reasonable attorneys' fees) suffered or incurred by the Autodesk Parties by reason of any Claim arising out of or relating to (a) your Application or Your Content, including any assertion that your Application or Your Content or the use of either or both (i) infringes any copyright, trademark, or other intellectual property of any individual or entity, (ii) misappropriates any individual or entity's trade secret, (iii) violates the privacy or publicity rights or any individual or entity or fails to comply with the privacy or data protection Laws, (iv) contains any libelous, defamatory, disparaging, pornographic, or obscene materials, (v) infringes or violates any other rights of any individual or entity, or (vi) caused death or bodily injury or damage to the real or tangible property of any third party; (b) any breach of, or failure by you (including your Authorized Users) or your End Users, to comply with these Terms; (c) access to or use of the Service by you (including your Authorized Users), your End Users, or anyone who accesses the Service through you (whether or not such access is authorized by you or by Autodesk); or (d) any breach by you of any representations, warranties, covenants, or other provisions in these Terms. Whether or not Autodesk asks you to defend a Claim, you will not agree to any settlement without the prior written consent of Autodesk. If Autodesk asks you to defend a Claim, Autodesk will have the right to participate in the defense of the Claim with counsel of its own choosing. Notwithstanding the foregoing, you will have no obligation to indemnify and hold harmless the Autodesk Parties against any losses or liabilities suffered or incurred by the Autodesk Parties by reason of any determination by a court of competent jurisdiction that (i) the Service as provided by Autodesk infringes a copyright or patent or misappropriates a trade secret of any third party or (ii) the name of the Service infringes a trademark of a third party.

16.4 General. The parties' relationship to each other under these Terms is strictly that of independent contractors and nothing in these Terms will in any way constitute or be construed as evidence of intent to establish any association, partnership, joint venture or other relationship. Each party will be responsible for covering its costs and expenses in performing its duties and exercising its rights under these Terms, unless expressly provided otherwise in these Terms. If for any reason a court of competent jurisdiction finds any provision of these Terms, or any portion thereof, to be unenforceable, that provision will be enforced to the maximum extent permissible so as to effect the intent of these Terms and the remainder of these Terms will continue in full force and effect. The section headings used in these Terms are for convenience only and will not be given any substantive effect. When used in these Terms, “include” or “including” will be deemed to mean “include but are not limited to” or “including but not limited to.” Unless the context or construction otherwise requires, all words applied in the plural will be deemed to have been used in the singular, and vice versa. The English language version of these Terms is legally binding in case of any inconsistencies between the English version and any translations. A party may only waive its rights under these Terms by a written document executed by both parties. Any failure to enforce any provision of these Terms will not constitute a waiver thereof or of any other provision hereof. You may not assign or transfer (by operation of law or otherwise) any of your rights or obligations under these Terms without Autodesk’s prior written consent. Autodesk may freely assign or transfer any of its rights or obligations under these Terms. Any unauthorized assignment or transfer will be null and void.
