Further, Creative shall not be liable for the accuracy of any
information provided by Creative or third party technical support
personnel, or any damages caused, either directly or indirectly, by acts
taken or omissions made by you as a result of such technical support.
You assume full responsibility for the selection of the Software to
achieve your intended results, and for the installation, use and results
obtained from the Software. You also assume the entire risk as it
applies to the quality and performance of the Software. Should the
Software prove defective, you (and not Creative, or its distributors or
dealers) assume the entire cost of all necessary servicing, repair or
correction.
This warranty gives you specific legal rights, and you may also have
other rights which vary from country/state to country/state. Some
countries/states do not allow the exclusion of implied warranties, so
the above exclusion may not apply to you. Creative disclaims all
warranties of any kind if the Software was customized, repackaged or
altered in any way by any third party other than Creative.
LIMITATION OF REMEDIES AND DAMAGES
THE ONLY REMEDY FOR BREACH OF WARRANTY WILL
BE THAT SET FORTH IN THE WARRANTY CARD OR
PRINTED MANUAL INCLUDED WITH THE SOFTWARE. IN
NO EVENT WILL CREATIVE OR ITS LICENSORS BE
LIABLE FOR ANY INDIRECT, INCIDENTAL, SPECIAL OR
CONSEQUENTIAL DAMAGES OR FOR ANY LOST
PROFITS, LOST SAVINGS, LOST REVENUES OR LOST
DATA ARISING FROM OR RELATING TO THE SOFTWARE
OR THIS AGREEMENT, EVEN IF CREATIVE OR ITS
LICENSORS HAVE BEEN ADVISED OF THE POSSIBILITY
OF SUCH DAMAGES. IN NO EVENT WILL CREATIVE’S
LIABILITY OR DAMAGES TO YOU OR ANY OTHER
PERSON EVER EXCEED THE AMOUNT PAID BY YOU TO
USE THE SOFTWARE, REGARDLESS OF THE FORM OF
THE CLAIM.
Some countries/states do not allow the limitation or exclusion of
liability for incidental or consequential damages, so the above
limitation or exclusion may not apply to you.
PRODUCT RETURNS
If you must ship the software to Creative or an authorized Creative
distributor or dealer, you must prepay shipping and either insure the
software or assume all risk of loss or damage in transit.

STATUTORY RIGHTS

implied in contracts for the sale of goods and in contracts for the
supply of services. Such conditions and warranties are hereby
excluded, to the extent such exclusion, in the context of this
transaction, is lawful under Irish law. Conversely, such conditions and
warranties, insofar as they may not be lawfully excluded, shall apply.
Accordingly nothing in this Agreement shall prejudice any rights that
you may enjoy by virtue of Sections 12, 13, 14 or 15 of the Irish Sale
of Goods Act 1893 (as amended).
GENERAL
This Agreement is governed by the laws of the Republic of Ireland.
The local language version of this agreement shall apply to Software
acquired in the EU. This Agreement is the entire agreement between
us, and you agree that Creative will not have any liability for any
untrue statement or representation made by it, its agents or anyone
else (whether innocently or negligently) upon which you relied upon
entering this Agreement, unless such untrue statement or
representation was made fraudulently.
