TO THE MAXIMUM EXTENT PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE LAW, CANON EXPRESSLY DISCLAIMS ALL WARRANTIES OF ANY KIND, WHETHER EXPRESS OR IMPLIED, INCLUDING, BUT NOT LIMITED TO, ANY IMPLIED WARRANTIES OF MERCHANTABILITY, FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR USE OR PURPOSE, COMPATIBILITY OF THE CANON ID WITH SPECIFIC USES OR PURPOSES AND NON-INFRINGEMENT OF INTELLECTUAL PROPERTIES.

FURTHER, CANON MAKES NO WARRANTY TO THE RESULT OF YOUR USE OF THE CANON ID AS TO THE ACCURACY AND RELIABILITY THEREOF.
You shall only use the Canon ID after understanding and accepting that due to limitations to the security used by the Canon ID, no security for the Canon ID can be guaranteed in your use of the Canon ID. Canon shall not be liable to you for any of such insecurity or associated consequences.
IN NO EVENT SHALL CANON BE LIABLE FOR ANY DIRECT, INDIRECT, INCIDENTAL, SPECIAL, CONSEQUENTIAL, PUNITIVE OR EXEMPLARY DAMAGES, INCLUDING, BUT NOT LIMITED TO, LOSS OF PROFITS, GOODWILL, USE, DATA OR TIME, BUSINESS INTERRUPTION OR OTHER LOSSES, EVEN IF CANON HAS BEEN ADVISED OR SHOULD HAVE KNOWN OF THE POSSIBILITY OF SUCH DAMAGES, ARISING FROM OR IN CONNECTION WITH THE CANON ID, INCLUDING, BUT NOT LIMITED TO, YOUR USE OR INABILITY TO USE THE CANON ID OR THE RESULT OF YOUR USE OF THE CANON ID, WHETHER SUCH DAMAGES ARE BASED ON WARRANTY, CONTRACT, TORT, STATUTE OR ANY OTHER LEGAL THEORY.
Some jurisdictions may not permit the exclusion of certain warranties or the limitation of liability for certain damages. As such, to the maximum extent permitted by applicable law, such exclusions or limitations shall apply.
You agree to indemnify, defend and hold harmless Canon, its subsidiaries, affiliates, and subcontractors from and against any and all claims, liabilities, damages, losses, costs, expenses or fees (including reasonable attorney's fees) arising from or in connection with use of the Canon ID by you (or anyone using your account), or violation of the Terms by you (or anyone using your account).
Canon reserves the right to modify, suspend, assign to a third party or terminate the Canon ID as well as the right to add, modify, or terminate the Services at any time, at its sole discretion, without prior notice to you. Canon shall not be liable for any damage or loss incurred by you or any third party due to the modification, suspension, assignment or termination of the Canon ID.
Canon may disclose any information Canon receives through the Canon ID if required to do so by a court of law, government agency, competent supervisory agency, or other official body in Japan or other country or region in accordance with law or regulation. Canon will not be liable for any damage or loss incurred by you due to such disclosure.
You agree that you receive service notices from Canon by e-mail site.
The failure of Canon to exercise or enforce any right or provision of the Terms shall not constitute a waiver of such right or provision.
If any part of the Terms is held invalid or unenforceable, you agree that such part shall be construed in a manner consistent with applicable laws to reflect the original intention of Canon and you and that it shall not affect the validity or enforceability of any other terms or rights which shall remain in full force and effect.
Notwithstanding any termination of your use of the Canon ID, the Terms shall remain in full force and effect.
To the extent permitted by law, the Terms are governed by the laws of Japan and any lawsuits arising or related to the Terms or your use of the Canon ID shall be submitted to the exclusive jurisdiction of the Tokyo District Court. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if the courts do not permit such consent to this jurisdiction, your local jurisdiction will apply, and if such courts exclude the laws of Japan from applying, the laws of the country or region you are resident in will apply.
The Terms together with the Privacy Policy constitute the entire agreement and understanding between you and Canon regarding the Canon ID.
