Limitation of Damages, Release and Indemnification
Limitation of Liability
To the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, BudPlug (the “Company”), including its affiliates, directors, officers, employees, licensors, and partners, shall not be liable for any direct, indirect, incidental, special, consequential, or exemplary damages.

This limitation applies regardless of the legal theory involved, whether in contract, tort (including negligence), warranty, or otherwise, and even if the Company has been advised of the possibility of such damages.
Some jurisdictions do not allow certain limitations of liability, so parts of this provision may not apply to you.
User Disputes & Release
If you have a dispute with one or more users or Third-Party Providers, you agree to release the Company, its affiliates, officers, directors, employees, and agents from any and all claims, demands, and damages (both actual and consequential), known or unknown, arising out of or in any way connected with such disputes.
Furthermore, you expressly waive any statutory or legal protections that might restrict this release exclusively to claims you are currently aware of or suspect to exist (for example, protections similar to California Civil Code Section 1542). You understand that this broad release encompasses all claims, regardless of whether discovering them at a later date would have significantly impacted your agreement to this release.
Indemnification
You agree to fully indemnify, defend, and hold harmless BudPlug and its affiliates, directors, officers, employees, agents, and partners (collectively, the “Indemnified Parties”) from and against any and all claims, liabilities, damages, losses, costs, and expenses (including reasonable legal fees) arising out of or related to:
- Your use of the Site or Services;
- Any breach of your representations, warranties, or obligations under this Agreement;
- Your violation of any applicable laws or regulations in any jurisdiction; or
- Your infringement of any intellectual property or other rights of any individual or entity.
This indemnification obligation applies regardless of whether such claims are based on the actions of you, other users, or third parties, and regardless of the merit of such claims.
