EVENT GIVING RISE TO THE CLAIM FOR LIABILITY OR (II) $100. THE FOREGOING LIMITATIONS OF LIABILITY SHALL APPLY TO THE FULLEST EXTENT PERMITTED BY LAW IN THE APPLICABLE JURISDICTION.

We shall not be liable for fault on the part of any third-party service providers instructed by us. In such cases, our liability shall be limited to using reasonable care in the selection, appointment and instruction of such third-party service providers (but not of any sub-contractor or other third party such third-party service provider may use).

Nothing in these Terms shall operate to limit or exclude any liability for fraud, gross negligence or for death or personal injury resulting from negligence.

You agree that any claims against the other under these Terms may only be brought on an individual basis and not as a plaintiff or class member in any purported class or representative action or proceeding. No court or adjudicator may consolidate or join more than one person’s or party’s claims and may not otherwise preside over any form of a consolidated, representative, or class proceeding. Any relief awarded to you cannot and may not affect any other users.

23.    INDEMNIFICATION

You agree to indemnify and hold Crypto.com, its Affiliates and third party service providers, and each of their respective officers, directors, agents, joint venture entities, employees and representatives, harmless from any claim or demand (including attorneys’ fees and any fines, fees or penalties imposed by any regulatory authority) arising out of or related to (a) your breach of any of these Terms; (b) your wrongful or improper use of the Pay Services; (c) the products or services sold by you through the Pay Services, including but not limited to any claims for false advertising, product defects, personal injury, death or property damage; (d) any transactions directed from your Merchant Account that are in violation of any AML or Trade Control Laws; or (e) any other party’s access or use of the Pay Services with your account information.

24.    TAXES

It is your sole responsibility to determine whether, and to what extent, any Taxes apply to your use of the Pay Services, and to withhold, collect, report and remit the correct amounts of such Taxes to the appropriate tax authorities. We are not obligated to, nor will we determine whether Taxes apply, or calculate, collect, report, or remit any Taxes to any tax authority arising from any transaction.

The Fees are exclusive of applicable sales tax, or value added tax, or any similar sales or turnover tax in any jurisdiction (collectively, «VAT»), unless otherwise provided in this Commercial Agreement. Any VAT chargeable on the Fees and payable to the relevant tax authority by Crypto.com shall be payable by you in addition to the Fees upon receipt of a valid VAT invoice. No amount of VAT chargeable on the Fees and payable by you to the relevant tax authority shall be deducted or withheld from the Fees paid to Crypto.com.

The payment of Fees shall be made in net amounts without deduction for any taxes, levies, charges, fees or withholdings of any nature, unless any applicable law requires such a deduction or withholding to be made. If a deduction or withholding is so required, you shall pay such additional amount and ensure that Crypto.com receives an amount equal to the full amount which it would have received had the deduction or withholding not been required.
