(a) Services Provided “As-Is”. Services are provided “as-is” and WRTA disclaims any and all representations and warranties, whether express or implied.

WRTA does its best to keep the Services safe, but cannot guarantee that the WRTA website is free of viruses or other harmful components.
(b) No Warranty on Assessment Results or Certified Facilitators. Because the Services rely, in part, on information provided by you, WRTA does not guarantee specific results. WRTA does not adopt, endorse, or accept responsibility for the accuracy or reliability of any opinion, advice, or statement made by any party other than WRTA. Under no circumstances will WRTA be responsible for any loss or damage resulting from anyone’s reliance on information transmitted to or by any User.
(c) No Warranty of Uninterrupted Service. WRTA does not warrant that Internet-based Services will be uninterrupted, always available, or operate error-free.
9. Release. In no event will WRTA, its officers, directors, employees, or agents be liable to you, or any third party, for any loss or damage, whether direct, indirect, consequential, exemplary, incidental, special, or punitive arising from the use of the Services or other WRTA materials.
10. Indemnification. You agree to indemnify and hold WRTA, its directors, officers, agents, and employees harmless from and against any loss, liability, claim, demand, damages, costs, and expenses, including reasonable attorney’s fees, arising out of or in connection with the use of the Services; conduct in connection with the Services; or any violation of these Terms of Service, the WRTA Privacy Policy, or of any law or the rights of any third party.
11. Governing Law. These Terms of Service are governed by the laws of the State of California.
12. Dispute Resolution. To resolve any complaint you may have regarding the Services, you agree to first contact WRTA and express your concerns. Correspondence regarding any complaint should be sent to [email protected] (include Terms of Service in your subject line). If your complaint cannot be resolved through discussion with WRTA, any controversy or claim arising out of or relating to these Terms of Service, the Services, or any other WRTA materials will be settled by binding arbitration. Any controversy or claim must be arbitrated on an individual basis, and may not be consolidated with any claim or controversy of any other party. Any arbitration must take place in San Diego County.
13. Entire Agreement. This Agreement and the WRTA Privacy Policy is the entire agreement between you and WRTA regarding your use of the Services.
14. Nonwaiver. If either party fails to require the other party to perform any term of this Agreement, that failure does not prevent the party from later enforcing that term. If either party waives the other’s breach of a term, that waiver does not waive a later breach of that term.
15. Severability. If any part of this Agreement is invalid or unenforceable, the remainder is still enforceable.
