products copy, imitate, mimic, emulate, approximate, depict or otherwise infringe
on designs, images, or other protected works in the United States or other countries.
You acknowledge and agree that it is your responsibility to ensure that products

the purchase price of the design. If the design was purchases as part of a pack,

FILES ARE PROVIDED "AS IS" WITHOUT WARRANTY OF ANY KIND EITHER EXPRESS,
IMPLIED OR STATUTORY, INCLUDING BUT NOT LIMITED TO THE IMPLIED WARRANTIES OF
MERCHANTABILITY AND FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE.

rights and you may also have other rights, which vary, from jurisdiction to
jurisdiction.

UNDER APPLICABLE LAW, IN NO EVENT WILL EMBROIDERY.COM OR ITS SUPPLIERS BE LIABLE

RISE TO LIABILITY. THIS LIMITATION IS CUMULATIVE AND WILL NOT BE INCREASED BY

attorneys' fees, court costs, and other collection expenses, in addition to

to the greatest extent possible under applicable law and the remaining provisions
will continue in full force and effect. The section headings used in this Agreement
