You may terminate your account and use of the Services at any time. Apprope may terminate the Terms and your use of the Services at any time with thirty (30) days’ prior notice.

You hereby acknowledge and agree that as soon as you start using the Services or make in-service purchases you waive any statutory cancellation rights that you might otherwise have had.

4. Liability and indemnity
Nothing in these Terms excludes or limits Apprope’s liability for death or personal injury arising from Apprope’s negligence, or Apprope’s fraud or fraudulent misrepresentation, or any other liability that cannot be excluded or limited by law.
Under no circumstances shall Apprope’s aggregate liability in connection with the Services or otherwise under these Terms exceed an amount corresponding to the greater of (a) SEK 500 (or the equivalent amount in your local currency), or (b) the aggregated fees which you paid to us in the 12 months prior to the action giving rise to the liability. Apprope including its partners, affiliates, contractors, officers, directors, employees and agents shall not be liable for any loss of profit, loss of data or any other indirect damages in connection with the Services or otherwise under these Terms.
You agree to indemnify and hold Apprope, its partners, affiliates, contractors, officers, directors, employees and agents harmless from and against any and all claims, losses, liabilities, expenses and damages related to your breach of these Terms.
