In the event that we lose any of the rights to any Brave Bison Content (or any part of it), or we are so instructed by the party from whom we have been granted rights to any Brave Bison Content (or any part of it), or we receive a third party claim, or are otherwise of the view (in our sole discretion) that any Brave Bison Content (or any part of it) may breach the rights of a third party you shall upon our request immediately remove such Brave Bison Content from your Website(s) and shall provide written certification that this has been carried out.

Subject to the foregoing, in no event shall Brave Bison or its suppliers, or their respective officers, directors, employees, or agents be liable with respect to the Services or the subject matter of this Agreement whether such liability arises in contract, tort (including negligence), misrepresentation (other than fraudulent misrepresentation), breach of duty or otherwise for any amount (in aggregate) in excess of the revenue received (and retained) by Brave Bison in connection with its provision of the Services to you during the twelve-month period immediately preceding the event (or series of events) giving rise to any such liability; for any indirect, incidental, punitive, or consequential damages of any kind whatsoever (including without limit any loss of profit (whether incurred directly or indirectly), any loss of goodwill or business reputation, or any loss of opportunity); for data loss or cost of procurement of substitute goods or services; or for any matter beyond Brave Bison’s reasonable control.

This Agreement shall remain in full force and effect while you use the Services. Save as otherwise provided in any Separate Agreement (as defined in the first paragraph of these Terms of Use) we may terminate or suspend your access to the Services at any time, for any reason, and without warning. Either party may terminate or suspend any and all Services immediately, without prior notice or liability, if the other party commits a material breach of the terms or conditions of this Agreement. Upon termination of this Agreement for any reason, your right to use the Services, any Brave Bison Content or any other content or material within the Services will immediately cease, all outstanding sums payable by either party to the other shall immediately become due and payable and each party shall promptly return (or, if so authorised by the other party, to the extent possible using reasonable commercial endeavours, destroy or delete) the confidential information of the other, save that we will be entitled to keep copies of your confidential information for internal purposes. All provisions of this Agreement, which, by their nature, should survive termination, shall survive termination, including, without limitation, ownership provisions, warranty disclaimers, and limitations of liability.
We may suspend or terminate any Services provided under this Agreement immediately on notice to you in the event that Brave Bison loses the right to provide those Services.
If some Services are terminated, but we continue to provide other Services to you, the above paragraph will only apply in relation to the Services terminated.
6. Taxes
Unless stated otherwise, all sums payable from one party to another under this Agreement are exclusive of any value added tax, goods and services tax and similar sales and other taxes in any jurisdiction and any taxes imposed in substitution for the foregoing (together “VAT”). Any VAT on any sums payable hereunder shall be paid on the due date for payment of such sums.
If you are required to withhold any taxes from any sums payable to us under this Agreement, then the amount of the payment due will automatically be increased to offset such tax, so that the amount actually remitted to us, net of all taxes required to be withheld, equals the amount invoiced or otherwise due. Upon our request, you shall promptly furnish us with copies of a reasonable sample of the official receipts evidencing payments of taxes due, under or in relation to the fees, to the appropriate taxing authority.
7. Confidentiality
Should either party to this Agreement receive any confidential information of the other party, including without limit information relating to the business affairs, customers, clients or suppliers of the other party, or of any member of the group of companies to which the other party belongs then the party in receipt of such confidential information shall not at any time disclose such confidential information to any other person save for (a) any disclosure to that party’s employees, officers, representatives or advisers who need to know such information for the purposes of exercising any rights or carrying out obligations under or in connection with this Agreement; and (b) any disclosure required by law, a court of competent jurisdiction or any governmental or regulatory authority. Neither party shall use one another’s confidential information for any purpose other than to exercise rights and perform obligations under or in connection with this Agreement.
8. Indemnity
By using or accessing the Services you agree to indemnify Brave Bison and all of Brave Bison’s agents, partners, subsidiaries, affiliates, licensees, successors, and assigns and shall keep them indemnified at all times against any and all claims, proceedings, demands, damages, liabilities, costs and expenses (including reasonable legal costs) incurred howsoever as a result of, or in connection with, any breach of any of your warranties, representations or undertakings under this Agreement.
9. General
In providing the Services to you we will usually incur costs in connection with the technical delivery of such Services (by way of example only, the costs relating to the storage or encoding of your files). Should we determine that the costs associated with our provision of any Services to you exceed the sums received by Brave Bison in connection therewith, then we shall be entitled to require you to pay such technical costs as a condition of your continuing to use the Service(s).
If any licensor of ours imposes terms or conditions which impact on any Channels we manage on your behalf we will be free to provide Services in relation to such Channels in such a manner as to comply with such terms and conditions.
We shall not be in breach of this agreement nor liable for delay in performing, or failure to perform, any of our obligations under this agreement if such delay or failure result from events, circumstances or causes beyond our reasonable control. In such circumstances the time for performance shall be extended by a period equivalent to the period during which performance of the obligation has been delayed or failed to be performed.
Except insofar as this Agreement expressly provides that a third party may in his own right enforce a term of this Agreement, a person who is not a party to this Agreement has no right under the Contracts (Rights of Third Parties) Act 1999 to rely upon or enforce any term of this Agreement.
No failure or delay by us to exercise any right or remedy provided under this agreement or by law shall constitute a waiver of that or any other right or remedy, nor shall it prevent or restrict the further exercise of that or any other right or remedy. No single or partial exercise of such right or remedy shall prevent or restrict the further exercise of that or any other right or remedy.
This Agreement shall constitute the whole agreement between you and Brave Bison and shall supersede any previous arrangements, understandings or agreements between you and Brave Bison relating to the subject matter they cover. Both you and Brave Bison acknowledge and agree that in entering into this Agreement you do not rely on any undertaking, promise, assurance, statement, representation, warranty or understanding (whether in writing or not) of any person (whether party to this Agreement or not) relating to the subject matter of this Agreement, other than as expressly set out in this Agreement.
Nothing in this Agreement shall be deemed to constitute a partnership between you and Brave Bison.
We will be entitled to assign, transfer, sub-license, sub-contract, or otherwise deal in any other manner with any or all of our rights and obligations under this Agreement without your prior written consent.
If any provision of this Agreement (or part of any provision) is found by any court or other authority of competent jurisdiction to be invalid, unenforceable or illegal, the other provisions shall remain in force. If any invalid, unenforceable or illegal provision would be valid, enforceable and legal if some part of it were deleted, the provision shall apply with whatever modification is necessary to give effect to the commercial intention of you and Brave Bison.
A notice given under this Agreement shall be in the English language and, in the case of notices to us shall be sent by email to legal@bravebison.io and, in the case of notices to you, shall be sent by email to the email address you provided to us for the purposes of registering on this site, or otherwise any email address provided to us for the purposes of receiving such notices, or otherwise any email address you have provided us with. Without prejudice to any earlier time at which a notice or other communication may be actually given and received, a properly addressed notice will in any event, if no delivery failure is reported to or by the sender’s e-mail server, be deemed to have been given and received on the date such e-mail was sent (or, if such day is not a business day, then the next business day).
This Agreement, its subject matter and its formation (and any non-contractual disputes or claims) are governed by English law. We both agree to the exclusive jurisdiction of the courts of England and Wales. Notwithstanding this, you agree that Brave Bison shall still be allowed to apply for injunctive remedies (or other equivalent types of urgent legal remedy) in any jurisdiction.
