8. High-Risk Environments and Safety-Critical Use

8.1. The Software has not been designed, tested, certified, or intended for use in safety-critical or high-risk environments or systems, including but not limited to:

(a) operation or control of nuclear facilities, nuclear reactors, nuclear fuel cycle facilities, or radioactive waste management facilities;
(b) aircraft navigation, flight control systems, air traffic control systems or similar aviation safety systems;
(c) railway signaling systems, mass transit control systems, or other public transportation control systems;
(d) medical devices, diagnostic systems, life-support systems, implantable medical devices, or other systems whose failure could directly endanger human life;

(f) military command-and-control systems, weapons systems, or weapons platforms;
(g) any other environment or system where a failure, malfunction, or incorrect operation of the Software could reasonably be expected to result in death, personal injury, severe physical or environmental damage, or significant disruption of essential public services.

8.2. This list is illustrative and not exhaustive. It is the sole responsibility of the Licensee to assess whether a given use case constitutes a safety-critical or high-risk environment within the meaning of this Section.

8.3. Licensee shall not use, and shall not permit any third party to use, the Software in any of the environments or systems described in Section 8.1 or in any similar safety-critical or high-risk environment, unless such a use has been expressly approved in a separate written agreement with Licensor.

8.4. If Licensee nevertheless uses the Software in such environments or systems, Licensee does so entirely at its own risk and responsibility. In such cases, Licensee shall ensure appropriate redundancy, fail-safe mechanisms, risk mitigation, and independent verification and validation, and shall fully indemnify and hold harmless the Licensor from any claims, damages, or losses arising out of or related to such a use, to the maximum extent permitted by applicable law.

9. Limitation of Liability

9.1. Except in cases of wilful misconduct or damage directly caused to natural persons, the Licensor shall in no event be liable, on any legal ground, for any direct or indirect, material or non-material damages arising out of or in connection with this Agreement or the use or inability to use the Software, including, without limitation, loss of goodwill, loss of profits, loss of revenue, loss of data, business interruption, computer failure or malfunction, or any type of economic loss. However, the Licensor remains liable under any applicable mandatory statutory product liability regime and other mandatory provisions of applicable law.

9.2. To the extent that applicable law does not permit the exclusion of certain types of damages or liabilities, such exclusions and limitations shall apply only to the maximum extent permitted by such a law. Nothing in this Agreement shall deprive the Licensee of rights, which cannot be excluded or limited under mandatory law.

9.3. Subject to Sections 9.1 and 9.2 and to the jurisdiction-specific provisions below, the Licensors aggregate liability arising out of or in connection with this Agreement, whether in contract, tort, or otherwise, shall in no event exceed the total amount of subscription fees paid by Licensee to Licensor under this Agreement during the twelve (12) months immediately preceding the event giving rise to the first claim. This limitation shall apply per aggregate of all claims arising from or related to the same event, series of events, or circumstances.

9.4. Additional provisions for Licensees in Germany

9.4.1 If the Licensee has its habitual residence or registered office in Germany, or if German law is mandatorily applicable, the limitations in Sections 9.1 to 9.3  shall be construed in accordance with German law as follows:

(a) The Licensor shall be liable without limitation for damages resulting from injury to life, body, or health caused by its negligent or intentional breach of duty, for damages caused by intentional misconduct (Vorsatz), and under the German Product Liability Act (Produkthaftungsgesetz).

(b) In case of damage caused by gross negligence (grobe Fahrlässigkeit), the Licensor shall be liable in accordance with the statutory provisions; the limitation in Section 9.3 shall not apply to such cases to the extent that statutory law does not permit such limitation.

(c) In case of damage caused by simple negligent breach of an essential contractual obligation (Kardinalpflicht), the Licensors liability shall be limited to the typical, foreseeable damage and, in any event, shall not exceed the amount specified in Section 9.3.

(d) In all other cases of simple negligence, the Licensor shall not be liable.

9.4.2 Any further mandatory statutory rights of the Licensee under German law remain unaffected.

9.5. Additional provisions for Licensees in Portugal

9.5.1 If the Licensee has its habitual residence or registered office in Portugal, or if Portuguese law is mandatorily applicable, the limitations in Sections 9.1 to 9.3 shall be construed in accordance with Portuguese law as follows:

(a) The Licensors' liability for death or personal injury and for losses caused by wilful misconduct (dolo) or gross negligence (negligência grave / negligência grosseira) shall not be excluded or limited.

(b) For losses caused by simple negligence, the Licensors liability may be limited or excluded in accordance with Sections 9.1 to 9.3, subject to mandatory provisions of Portuguese law.

(c) Any mandatory liability under the Portuguese product liability regime or other mandatory provisions remains unaffected.

9.6. Additional provisions for Licensees in the United States

9.6.1 If this Agreement is governed by the law of a state of the United States or if a court in such a state applies its mandatory law, the following shall apply:

(a) Nothing in this Agreement shall exclude or limit liability for death or personal injury where such exclusion or limitation would be unlawful, or for wilful misconduct or fraud.

(b) To the maximum extent permitted by applicable law, the Licensor shall not be liable for any indirect, incidental, special, consequential, or punitive damages, or for any loss of profits, revenue, business, goodwill, or data, even if the Licensor has been advised of the possibility of such damages.

(c) Subject to subparagraph (a), any remaining liability of the Licensor shall be limited in accordance with Sections 9.1 to 9.3 and to the maximum extent permitted under applicable state law.

9.7. Where different mandatory laws apply simultaneously, the limitations and exclusions of this Article shall be interpreted in a manner that gives effect to the maximum permissible limitation of the Licensors liability without depriving the Licensee of any rights that are mandatory under such laws.

10. Limitation Periods

10.1. Any claim by Licensee arising out of or in connection with this Agreement (other than claims for which liability cannot be limited or excluded under mandatory law) must be brought before the competent court within twelve (12) months after the date on which Licensee became aware, or should reasonably have become aware, of the relevant breach and the resulting damage. After the expiry of this period, such claims shall be time-barred, to the maximum extent permitted by applicable law.

10.2. The limitation period in Section 10.1 shall not apply to claims based on:

(a) injury to life, body, or health;
(b) wilful misconduct (and, where mandatory law so requires, gross negligence);
(c) fraudulent concealment of a defect or breach; or
(d) liability under mandatory product liability statutes or other mandatory provisions, which prohibit such contractual limitation.

11. Governing Law

11.1. This Agreement shall be governed by and construed in accordance with the laws of Portugal, excluding its conflict-of-law rules.

11.2. Any disputes arising out of or in connection with this Agreement shall be subject to the exclusive jurisdiction of the competent courts of Portugal, without
prejudice to any mandatory jurisdiction rules that may apply in favor of Licensee under applicable law.

12. Miscellaneous

12.1. This Agreement constitutes the entire agreement between Licensor and Licensee with respect to the commercial use of the Software and supersedes all prior or contemporaneous understandings, whether written or oral, relating to such subject.

12.2. Any changes or amendments to this Agreement must be in writing and signed by both parties.

12.3. If any provision of this Agreement is found invalid or unenforceable by a court of competent jurisdiction, such provision shall be enforced to the maximum extent permissible, and the remaining provisions shall remain in full force and effect.

12.4. The failure of Licensor to enforce any right or provision of this Agreement shall not constitute a waiver of such right or provision.
