7. No Warranty

Bolden Steadex makes no warranty, express or implied, regarding the accuracy, completeness, reliability, or timeliness of any output generated by the Service.

Bolden Steadex disclaims all warranties of merchantability, fitness for a particular purpose, and non-infringement to the fullest extent permitted by law.

8. Limitation of Liability

To the maximum extent permitted by applicable law, Bolden Steadex, its officers, employees, and affiliates shall not be liable for any direct, indirect, incidental, consequential, or special damages, including but not limited to loss of profits, loss of data, or financial loss, arising from or related to your use of, or inability to use, the Service, even where Bolden Steadex has been advised of the possibility of such damages. Your sole remedy for dissatisfaction with the Service is to discontinue its use.

9. Third-Party Data and Links

The Service may incorporate or reference data feeds, tools, or links provided by third parties. Bolden Steadex does not control and is not responsible for the accuracy, availability, or content of such third-party sources, and inclusion of such references does not imply endorsement.
