9. GENERAL TERMS
9.1 The Terms constitute the entire agreement between You and DiiA relating to their subject matter, and cancel and supersede any prior versions of the Terms. No modification to the Terms will be binding, unless in writing and signed by an authorized DiiA representative. You must not assign or otherwise transfer the Terms or any right granted hereunder. You also may be subject to additional terms and conditions that may apply when You use DiiA or third-party products or services.
9.2 You agree that any material breach of the Terms will result in irreparable harm to DiiA for which damages would be an inadequate remedy and, therefore, in addition to its rights and remedies otherwise available at law, DiiA will be entitled to equitable relief, including both a preliminary and permanent injunction, if such a breach occurs. You waive any requirement for the posting of a bond or other security if DiiA seeks such an injunction.
9.3 Content and product derived or obtained from this Website may be subject to the U.S. export laws and the export or import laws of other countries. You agree to comply strictly with all such laws and, in particular, shall:
(a) obtain any export, reexport, or import authorizations required by U.S. or your local laws;
(b) not use Content or direct product from this Website to design, develop or produce missile, chemical/biological, or nuclear weaponry; and
(c) not provide Content or direct product from this Website to prohibited countries and entities identified in the U.S. export regulations.
9.4 Rights and obligations under the Terms which by their nature should survive will remain in full effect after termination or expiration of the Terms.
9.5 The Website may contain forward-looking statements within the meaning of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995. Such forward-looking statements may include statements regarding market expectations and opportunities. These forward-looking statements are just predictions and involve risks and uncertainties.
9.6 Any express waiver or failure to exercise promptly any right under the Terms will not create a continuing waiver or any expectation of non-enforcement. If any provision of the Terms is held invalid by any law or regulation of any government, or by any court or arbitrator, the parties agree that such provision will be replaced with a new provision that accomplishes the original business purpose, and the other provisions of the Terms will remain in full force and effect.
