(b) Limitation. You agree that StudyQuran’s total cumulative liability in connection with these Terms, the StudyQuran Platform, the Services, the StudyQuran Content, or any listing or services, whether in contract, tort, or otherwise, shall not exceed the amounts, if any, you paid to StudyQuran for the Services in the then-prior three months.

20. EXCLUSIONS

Some jurisdictions do not allow the exclusion of certain warranties or the limitation or exclusion of liability for incidental or consequential damages. Accordingly, some of the above limitations may not apply to you.

21. INTERNATIONAL

The StudyQuran Platform may be accessed from countries other than the United Arab Emirates. The StudyQuran Platform and the Services may contain products or references to products that are only available within the United Arab Emirates and its territories. Any such references do not imply that such products will be made available outside the United Arab Emirates.

If you access and use the StudyQuran Platform outside the United Arab Emirates, you are responsible for complying with all applicable local laws and regulations.

StudyQuran makes no representation that information on the StudyQuran Platform is appropriate or available for use outside the United Arab Emirates. Those who choose to access the StudyQuran Platform from outside the United Arab Emirates do so on their own initiative and at their own risk.

22. LIQUIDATED DAMAGES

StudyQuran and the User acknowledge and agree that the funds that may be withheld under Section 14 of these Terms shall constitute liquidated damages and not penalties and are in addition to all other rights of StudyQuran in case of a breach of these Terms.

StudyQuran and the User further acknowledge that: (i) the amount of loss or damages likely to be incurred is incapable of or difficult to precisely estimate; (ii) the amounts specified bear a reasonable relationship to, and are not plainly or grossly disproportionate to, the probable loss likely to be incurred in connection with any material breach of the agreement by a User; and (iii) one of the reasons for StudyQuran and the User reaching an agreement as to such amounts was the uncertainty and cost of litigation regarding the question of actual damages.

23. INDEMNIFICATION

By using the Services, you agree to indemnify, hold harmless and defend StudyQuran and its subsidiaries, affiliates, shareholders, officers, directors, agents, licensors, suppliers, other partners, employees, and representatives from any claims, damages, losses, liabilities, and all costs and expenses of defense, including but not limited to, attorneys' fees, resulting directly or indirectly from a claim by a third party that arises in connection with your use of the Services, including but not limited to (a) acts and/or omissions on or off the StudyQuran Platform; (b) violation of any rights of another, including without limitation any alleged infringement of intellectual property or other right of any person or entity relating to the StudyQuran Platform; (c) breach of these Terms; (d) disputes with or between other Users; (e) use and/or misuse of the StudyQuran Platform, including without limitation any information, content and/or materials thereon; (f) violation of any applicable law or regulation; (g) inaccurate, untimely, incomplete or misleading User information, including without limitation with respect to registration, profile or eligibility; (h) misstatements and/or misrepresentations; (i) use of links to third party websites, including without limitation such websites' availability, terms of use, privacy policy, information, content, materials, advertising, products and/or services; (j) User information and any acts or omissions with respect to such User information; (k) use of any information in third-party reports; (l) use of third-party payment processors; and/or (m) use of any services or products or any contracts or arrangements made or provided based on information, content and/or materials obtained on or through the StudyQuran Platform . You further agree that you will cooperate as requested by StudyQuran in defense of such claims. StudyQuran reserves the right, at its own expense, to assume the exclusive defense and control of any matter otherwise subject to indemnification by Users, and you shall not, in any event, settle any claim or matter on behalf of StudyQuran without the written consent of StudyQuran.

In the event that you have a dispute with any User, you hereby release StudyQuran (and its officers, directors, agents, investors, subsidiaries, employees, contractors, and any other third parties related to the Services) from any and all claims, demands, or damages (actual or consequential) of every kind, known and unknown, arising out of or in any way related with such disputes.

If you are a California resident, you waive California Civil Code Section 1542, which says: “A general release does not extend to claims that the creditor or releasing party does not know or suspect to exist in his or her favor at the time of executing the release and that, if known by him or her, would have materially affected his or her settlement with the debtor or released party.”

24. DISPUTE RESOLUTION

We will review your complaint and do our best to address it. If a dispute between us cannot be resolved amicable, then to the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, these Terms of Use, their subject matter and their formation (and any non-contractual disputes or claims) are governed by the laws of the Dubai International Financial Centre ('DIFC') and will be interpreted accordingly. You irrevocably agree that the DIFC courts will have exclusive jurisdiction to settle any dispute or claim arising out of, or in connection with, your use of the Platform or these Terms of Use, and all matters arising from them (including any dispute relating to the existence, validity or termination of these Terms of Use, or any contractual or non-contractual obligation).
