LIMITATIONS OF LIABILITY
9.6 Maximum Liability. EXCEPT AS EXPRESSLY PROVIDED IN SECTIONS 9.7 THROUGH 9.9, AND NOT INCLUDING CUSTOMER’S OBLIGATION TO PAY ALL FEES OWED TO Ultrasite HEREUNDER, IN NO EVENT WILL EITHER PARTY'S AGGREGATE LIABILITY TO THE OTHER PARTY FOR ALL CLAIMS OF ANY KIND, INCLUDING ANY CLAIMS ARISING OUT OF OR RELATED TO THIS AGREEMENT, WHETHER BY STATUTE, CONTRACT, TORT, OR UNDER ANY OTHER THEORY OF LIABILITY, EXCEED THE FEES PAID BY CUSTOMER FOR THE ENTERPRISE SERVICES SUBJECT TO THE CLAIM DURING THE THREE (3) MONTH PERIOD IMMEDIATELY PRECEDING THE DATE ON WHICH THE CAUSE OF ACTION AROSE. FOR CLARITY, THE CALCULATION OF EACH PARTY’S LIABILITY UNDER THIS SECTION 9.7 EXCLUDES ANY FEES PAID BY CUSTOMER TO A THIRD PARTY OR FOR ANY PARTNER SERVICES, EVEN WHERE Ultrasite’S ENTERPRISE SERVICES ARE BUNDLED WITH OR OTHERWISE PROVIDED IN CONJUNCTION WITH PARTNER SERVICES. THE LIMITATIONS OF LIABILITY IN THIS SECTION 9.7 ALSO APPLY TO OUR AFFILIATES AND THE DIRECTORS, OFFICERS, EMPLOYEES, AND AGENTS OF Ultrasite AND OUR AFFILIATES (THE “Ultrasite PARTIES”) AND TO CLAIMS BROUGHT BASED ON ANY CAUSE OF ACTION, INCLUDING BREACH OF CONTRACT, TORT (INCLUDING NEGLIGENCE), STATUTE OR OTHER LEGAL OR EQUITABLE THEORY.
9.7 Excluded Damages.
(a) TO THE MAXIMUM EXTENT PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE LAW, IN NO EVENT WILL EITHER PARTY, ITS DIRECTORS, EMPLOYEES, AGENTS, OR LICENSORS BE LIABLE FOR ANY INDIRECT, PUNITIVE, INCIDENTAL, SPECIAL, CONSEQUENTIAL OR EXEMPLARY DAMAGES, OR FOR LOSS OF PROFITS, GOODWILL OR DATA OR OTHER INTANGIBLE LOSSES, THAT RESULT FROM THE USE OF, OR INABILITY TO USE, THE ENTERPRISE SERVICES OR ANY OTHER ASPECT OF THIS AGREEMENT.
(b) The Enterprise Services support multi-factor authentication, and the Acceptable Use Rules require you to maintain the confidentiality of your passwords or other login credentials for the Enterprise Services. ACCORDINGLY, TO THE MAXIMUM EXTENT PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE LAW, IN NO EVENT WILL Ultrasite BE LIABLE FOR ANY DAMAGE, LOSS, OR INJURY RESULTING FROM UNAUTHORIZED ACCESS TO OR USE OF THE ENTERPRISE SERVICES OR YOUR ACCOUNT OR THE CONTENT OR INFORMATION CONTAINED THEREIN IF: (A) THE UNAUTHORIZED ACCESS OR USE COULD HAVE BEEN PREVENTED THROUGH YOUR USE OF MULTI-FACTOR AUTHENTICATION; OR (B) YOU OR ANY OF YOUR AUTHORIZED USERS FAIL TO MAINTAIN THE CONFIDENTIALITY OF ANY PASSWORD OR OTHER LOGIN CREDENTIALS.
(c) WITHOUT LIMITING SECTION 9.8(b), TO THE MAXIMUM EXTENT PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE LAW, IN NO EVENT WILL Ultrasite BE LIABLE FOR ANY DAMAGE, LOSS, OR INJURY RESULTING FROM UNAUTHORIZED ACCESS TO OR USE OF THE ENTERPRISE SERVICES OR YOUR ACCOUNT OR THE CONTENT OR INFORMATION CONTAINED THEREIN, EXCEPT TO THE EXTENT Ultrasite’S BREACH OF THE ENTERPRISE SECURITY STANDARDS RESULTS IN THE UNAUTHORIZED DISCLOSURE OF YOUR CONFIDENTIAL INFORMATION.

9.9 Basis of Bargain. THE ESSENTIAL PURPOSE OF SECTIONS 9.7 THROUGH 9.9 IS TO ALLOCATE THE RISKS UNDER THESE TERMS BETWEEN THE PARTIES AND LIMIT THEIR POTENTIAL LIABILITY GIVEN THE FEES CHARGED UNDER THIS AGREEMENT, WHICH WOULD HAVE BEEN SUBSTANTIALLY HIGHER IF Ultrasite WERE TO ASSUME ANY FURTHER LIABILITY. THE PARTIES HAVE RELIED ON THESE LIMITATIONS IN DETERMINING WHETHER TO ENTER INTO THESE TERMS.
