 (5)        These Terms are to be read subject to any legislation that prohibits or restricts the exclusion, restriction or modification of any implied warranties, conditions, guarantees or obligations. If such legislation applies, to the extent possible The Mindful Dietitian limits its liability as follows, at our option:

 (a)      for any claims relating to these Terms, to the fees payable under this agreement (if applicable) for the preceding one (1) month;

(b)      in the case of products including any digital products (a) the replacement of the products or the supply of equivalent products; (b) the repair of the products; (c) the payment of the cost of replacing the products or of acquiring equivalent products; or (d) the payment of having the products repaired; or

(c)      in the case of services, the supply of the services again or the payment of the cost of having the services supplied again.

This limitation applies to any supply under or related to these Terms including the supply of the User Services and covers loss of data, any viruses or other disabling features that affect User access to or use of our User Services, incompatibility between our User Services and User hardware or software, delays or failures User may have in using the User Services including any connections or transmissions that fail or are not completed in an accurate or timely manner.

(6)      For jurisdictions that do not allow us to limit our liability, notwithstanding any provision of this agreement, if your jurisdiction has provisions specific to waiver or liability that conflict with the above then our liability is limited to the smallest extent possible by law. Specifically, in those jurisdictions not allowed, we do not disclaim liability for: (a) death or personal injury caused by its negligence or that of any of its officers, employees or agents; or (b) fraudulent misrepresentation; or (c) any liability which it is not lawful to exclude either now or in the future. If you are a resident of a jurisdiction that requires a specific statement regarding release then the following applies: “A GENERAL RELEASE DOES NOT EXTEND TO CLAIMS WHICH THE CREDITOR DOES NOT KNOW OR SUSPECT TO EXIST IN HIS OR HER FAVOR AT THE TIME OF EXECUTING THE RELEASE, WHICH IF KNOWN BY HIM OR HER MUST HAVE MATERIALLY AFFECTED HIS OR HER SETTLEMENT WITH THE DEBTOR.” You hereby waive any provision in law, regulation, or code that has the same intent or effect as the aforementioned release. Your ability to use our Website is contingent on your agreement with this and all other sections of this agreement. In the event that we may not limit our liability in your jurisdiction, you agree our total liability to you is not more than AUD$100 or the total amount you spent while using our Website, Products and Services within the last six months, whichever is greater.
