Limitation of liability

To the maximum extent permitted by law, Thumber is not liable for indirect, incidental, special, consequential, exemplary or punitive damages, lost profits, lost data, loss of goodwill, or loss of virtual goods. Aggregate liability is capped at the greater of (a) USD 100, or (b) what you paid us in the 12 months before the claim. This cap does not apply to liability that cannot be limited by law, including death or personal injury caused by negligence, fraud, fraudulent misrepresentation, gross negligence (where the local law requires), or the consumer guarantees referenced above.

No class action (non-consumer USA)

If you are a non-consumer user resident in the USA, you and Thumber waive the right to participate in a class action, class arbitration or representative proceeding. See Terms §15.

Force majeure & severability

Neither party is liable for delay caused by events beyond reasonable control. If any provision is held unenforceable, the rest remain in force and the offending provision will be replaced by the closest enforceable substitute.

Governing law & venue

The Terms are governed by the laws of the Republic of South Africa, without prejudice to mandatory consumer protections in your country of residence. Consumers may always bring claims in their local courts. EU consumers may use the EU ODR platform at ec.europa.eu/consumers/odr.
