7. OUR RESPONSIBILITIES TO YOU

  1. Snyk undertakes that the Services will be performed substantially in accordance with the Documentation and with reasonable skill and care.  However, we will have no obligations to the extent of any non-conformance which is caused by use of the Services contrary to our instructions, or modification or alteration of the Services by you or any of your contractors and/or agents. If the Services do not conform with the foregoing undertaking, your sole remedy and our only obligation to you, is that we will (at our expense), use all reasonable commercial endeavors to correct any such non-conformance promptly, or provide you with an alternative means of accomplishing the desired performance. 

  2. Any operation or transaction completed via any third party website is between you and the relevant third party, and not Snyk. Snyk recommends that you refer to the third party's website terms and conditions and privacy policy prior to using the relevant third party application or service. Our provision of features enabling interoperation with any third party application or service does not constitute endorsement or approval of it.

  3. Notwithstanding the foregoing, you acknowledge and agree that:

    1. the Services will evolve over time and that functionality may be added and removed from time to time;

    2. Snyk does not warrant that use of the Services will be uninterrupted or error-free, or that the Services and/or the information obtained through the Services will meet your requirements; and

    3. Snyk is not responsible for any delays, delivery failures, or any other loss or damage resulting from the transfer of data over communications networks and facilities, including the Internet, and you acknowledge that the Services may be subject to limitations, delays and other problems inherent in the use of such communications facilities.

  4. We have no obligation to modify Software to support your use of the Services and you acknowledge that the accuracy and completeness of the Services is dependent on a number of factors outside our control, including design, implementation, and use of the Protected Asset, erroneous dependency or Issue data, and changes to the environment in which the Protected Asset is used. 

  5. While we use commercially reasonable efforts to properly identify dependencies and Issues for review, you acknowledge that we do not warrant that:

    1. the Services will be able to find and monitor all Issues in all code, configuration or dependencies (including open source dependencies) included in, applicable to or used by the Protected Asset or your applications containing it; 

    2. whilst Snyk endeavors to keep up to date and build on its vulnerability and license database, the Services (including any Remediation) do not constitute professional advice (including legal advice) in relation to the Protected Asset and we do not guarantee it is a complete source of all Issues, nor that it is relevant or suited to the Protected Asset or your software projects generally; and

    3. we will be able to provide a Remediation for all Issues discovered using the Services.

  6. You also agree that: 

    1. you assume sole responsibility for results obtained from the use of the Services, and for conclusions drawn from such use;

    2. a recommended Remediation will not break the functionality of your code or will not result in the introduction of new Issues. You acknowledge that it is your responsibility to assess the impact of the Remediation before applying it; and

    3. that Remediations are provided for general information only, and have not been made with your particular requirements in mind. It is therefore not intended to amount to advice on which you should solely rely. We will not be liable to you for any ‘false positives’ incorrectly identified by the Service as requiring consideration of a Remediation or for any damage or loss suffered as a result of a Remediation deployed.

  7. From time to time, Snyk may make Beta Services available at no charge. Beta Services are made available “AS IS” and Snyk shall have no liability for any harm or damage arising out of or in connection with the Beta Services.

No assignment shall relieve the assigning party of any of its obligations hereunder. This Agreement shall be binding upon and shall inure to the benefit of the parties hereto and their respective successors and permitted assigns.
