We are not responsible for the availability, accuracy, or content of third-party services. If a third-party service changes its API, pricing, or availability in a way that affects the Service, we will make reasonable efforts to adapt but cannot guarantee continuity.

12. Limitation of Liability

To the maximum extent permitted by law, our total liability for any claim arising out of or relating to these Terms or the Service will not exceed the amount you paid us in the 12 months preceding the event giving rise to the claim.
