To the maximum extent permitted by applicable law, we assume no liability or responsibility for any (i) errors, mistakes, or inaccuracies of content; (ii) personal injury or property damage, of any nature whatsoever, resulting from your access to or use of the RX Platform; (iii) any unauthorised access to or use of our secure servers and/or any and all personal information stored therein; (iv) any interruption or cessation of transmission to or from the RX Platform; (v) any bugs, viruses, trojan horses, or the like that may be transmitted to or through the RX Platform by any third party; (vi) any errors or omissions in any content or for any loss or damage incurred as a result of the use of any content posted, emailed, transmitted, or otherwise made available through the RX Platform; and/or (vii) user content or the defamatory, offensive, or illegal conduct of any third party.

This limitation of liability section applies whether the alleged liability is based on contract, tort, negligence, strict liability, or any other basis, even if we have been advised of the possibility of such damage.  Some jurisdictions do not allow the exclusion or limitation of incidental or consequential damages, so the above limitations or exclusions may not apply to you.  These Terms gives you specific legal rights, and you may also have other rights which vary between jurisdictions.  The disclaimers, exclusions, and limitations of liability under these Terms do not apply to the extent prohibited by applicable law.
