Global Mine

1. No warranty

Global Mine is distributed without warranty of merchantability, fitness for a particular purpose, non-infringement, accuracy, completeness, or uninterrupted operation. We do not guarantee that Global Mine will be error-free, secure, free of viruses or other harmful components, or compatible with your operating system, hardware, drivers, antivirus, or other software.

2. Bugs, defects, and unintended behaviour are expected

Software contains bugs. Global Mine may, despite our best efforts:

• contain coding errors, logic mistakes, race conditions, memory leaks, or undocumented edge cases;
• misbehave on operating-system versions, locales, hardware, or peripherals we have not tested;
• regress between versions or fail to upgrade cleanly;
• display incorrect, outdated, or incomplete information in its UI;
• be flagged by antivirus or smart-screen heuristics as a false positive;
• conflict with other installed software or system policies.

3. Data loss, corruption, and backup integrity — your responsibility

Global Mine interacts with files, archives, drives, or system state. Backup, restore, snapshot, sync, and imaging operations carry inherent risk of total data loss, corruption, or partial write. Power failure, antivirus interference, OS update, hardware failure, file-locking conflicts, network interruption, encryption-key loss, or a software bug can render data unrecoverable. You agree that:

• you have already secured an independent, verified backup of any data you allow Global Mine to touch;
• you accept all risk of data loss, corruption, partial restore, or backup chain breakage;
• you are responsible for verifying that backups can actually be restored — we make no promise that they can.

4. Third-party services, APIs, and content

Global Mine may interact with third-party services, APIs, app stores, or content providers. Those services have their own terms, privacy policies, fees, region locks, quotas, and availability windows that we do not control and that may change at any time. We are not responsible for any cost, charge, ban, throttle, account suspension, data breach, or service disruption arising from your use of those third parties through Global Mine.

5. Browser extensions, system permissions, and elevated access

Where Global Mine ships as a browser extension, an installed application, or a portable executable, it may request permissions, system access, or administrator rights to perform its function. You are responsible for reviewing the requested permissions before granting them and for the consequences — security, privacy, stability — of granting them.

6. No professional advice

Nothing returned by Global Mine constitutes medical, legal, financial, tax, safety, dietary, security, regulatory, engineering, or other professional advice. Do not rely on Global Mine's output for any decision where an incorrect outcome could cause harm, loss, or liability. Always consult a qualified human professional.

7. Limitation of liability

TO THE MAXIMUM EXTENT PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE LAW, IN NO EVENT SHALL WE, THE AUTHORS, OPERATORS, MAINTAINERS, CONTRIBUTORS, AFFILIATES, OR DOWNSTREAM REDISTRIBUTORS OF Global Mine BE LIABLE FOR ANY DIRECT, INDIRECT, INCIDENTAL, SPECIAL, CONSEQUENTIAL, EXEMPLARY, OR PUNITIVE DAMAGES — including, without limitation, lost data, lost backups, lost profits, lost revenue, lost goodwill, business interruption, cost of substitute services, hardware damage, downtime, regulatory fines, third-party claims, or any other loss — arising out of or in connection with your installation, use, inability to use, removal, or update of Global Mine, even if we have been advised of the possibility of such damage and even if a stated remedy is found to have failed of its essential purpose.

Where the law does not permit such broad disclaimer, our aggregate liability shall not exceed the greater of (a) the amount, if any, you paid us for Global Mine in the twelve months preceding the event giving rise to the claim (which, for a free project, is zero) or (b) ten United States dollars (USD $10).

8. Indemnification

You agree to defend, indemnify, and hold us harmless from any claim, demand, action, liability, cost, or expense (including reasonable attorneys' fees) arising out of or relating to your use of Global Mine, your breach of these terms, your violation of any law, or your infringement of any third-party right in connection with your use of Global Mine.

9. Updates, breaking changes, and end-of-life

Global Mine is under active development. Any version may be amended, replaced, broken, or permanently discontinued at any time, with or without notice. File formats, settings, command-line flags, UI layouts, API contracts, and behaviour can and will change. We do not promise backward compatibility, an upgrade path, or continued availability.

10. Acceptance

By downloading, installing, running, embedding, redistributing, or otherwise using Global Mine, you confirm that you have read, understood, and agreed to this disclaimer in full. If you do not agree, do not use Global Mine.

This disclaimer is supplemented by the Site's Terms of Service, Privacy Policy, and general Disclaimer. To the extent of any conflict, the more restrictive term controls with respect to your use of Global Mine.
