A waiver will only be binding on Knowme if it is in a written document signed by Knowme. Both you and Knowme warrant to each other that, in entering these Terms, neither Knowme or you have relied on or will have any right or remedy based upon any statement, representation, warranty, or assurance other than those expressly stated in these Terms. The preceding sentence will not limit or exclude any liability that cannot be limited or excluded under applicable law.
