\n\n
IMPROVE may terminate this Agreement if IMPROVE\n decides to withdraw the Service (whether on a temporary or permanent basis) or\n decides to no longer permit access to the Service by the Client (by use of\n passwords or changes of passwords or by any other means). No refunds shall be\n due in cases in which Clients have paid for but not received Services.
\n\n
Termination for Cause

15. \n Force Majeure
\n\n
In this Agreement, “force majeure” shall\n mean any cause preventing IMPROVE from performing any or all of IMPROVE’s\n obligations which arise from or are attributable to acts, events, omissions or\n accidents beyond IMPROVE’s reasonable control including without limitation\n strikes, lock-outs or other industrial disputes, acts of God, war, riot, civil\n commotion, malicious damage, compliance with any law or governmental order,\n rule, regulation or direction, accident, breakdown of plant or machinery, fire,\n flood, interruption or failure of utility service, including but not limited to\n electric power, gas or water or default of suppliers or sub-contractors. IMPROVE\n shall not be in breach of this Agreement if it is subject to a force majeure\n event, provided that it uses reasonable endeavours to notify you in writing of\n the nature and extent of the force majeure event causing IMPROVE’s failure or\n delay in performance. If the force majeure event prevails for a continuous\n period of more than 2 months, the Client may terminate this Agreement by giving\n 14 days’ written notice to IMPROVE. On the expiry of this notice period, this\n Agreement will terminate. Such termination shall be without prejudice to IMPROVE’s\n rights in respect of any breach of this agreement occurring prior to such\n termination.
\n\n

\n ii. \n fraud or fraudulent misrepresentation; or
\n\n

\n\n
IMPROVE shall not be liable for any damages\n or losses as a result of a force majeure event, or from your or your Users’ use\n of a Third Party Service.
\n\n
To the fullest extent permitted by Law, in\n no event shall IMPROVE or its affiliates be liable to you or any third party\n for indirect, incidental, consequential, or punitive damages of any kind\n whether arising under contract, warranty, tort (including negligence or strict\n liability), or any other theory of liability, even if IMPROVE has been informed\n in advance of such damages or such damages could have been reasonably foreseen\n by IMPROVE.
\n\n
Without limiting the foregoing, IMPROVE\n shall not be liable for any of the following losses (whether direct, indirect,\n incidental or consequential):
\n\n
\n i. \n any loss of profits or other economic advantage;
\n\n
\n ii. \n any loss of data;
\n\n
iii. \n any loss of goodwill; and/or

iv. \n any loss of anticipated savings, arising in\n respect of any representation, statement, act or omission in connection with\n this Agreement, whether the claim arises under contract, tort,\n misrepresentation or breach of statutory duty.
\n\n
The limitation of liability reflects the\n allocation of risk between the parties. The limitations specified in this\n section will survive and apply in any and all circumstances.
\n\n
17. \n Notice

\n\n
IMPROVE reserves the right to modify the\n terms and conditions of this Agreement or its policies relating to the Service\n at any time. Such modified terms and conditions will be issued or made\n available to the Client electronically via email or the Website and shall be\n deemed effective 12 hours after electronic delivery or notification. Continued\n use of the Service after any such changes shall constitute the Client’s consent\n to such changes.
\n\n
19. \n Assignment; Change in Control
\n\n
This Agreement may not be assigned by the\n Client without the prior written approval of IMPROVE but may be assigned\n without the Client's consent by IMPROVE to:

\n i. \n a parent or subsidiary;
\n\n
\n ii. \n an acquirer of assets; or
\n\n
iii. \n a successor by merger.
\n\n
Any purported assignment in violation of\n this section shall be void.
\n\n
Any actual or proposed change in control of\n the Client that results or would result in a direct competitor of IMPROVE directly\n or indirectly owning or controlling 50% or more of the Client shall entitle IMPROVE\n to terminate this Agreement for cause immediately upon written notice.
\n\n

\n\n
No joint venture, partnership, employment,\n or agency relationship exists between the Client and IMPROVE as a result of\n this Agreement or use of the Service.

\n\n
This Agreement together with IMPROVE privacy\n policy and any copyright notices on the Website comprises the entire agreement\n between the Client and IMPROVE in relation to the Service and supersedes all\n prior or contemporaneous negotiations, discussions or agreements, whether written\n or oral, between the parties regarding the subject matter contained herein.

Browser Notes
\n\n
*Microsoft Edge, Firefox,\n Chrome and Safari follow a continuous release policy that makes difficult to\n fix a minimum version. For this reason, following the market recommendation we\n will support the last 2 major version of each of these browsers.
\n\n
\n\n
**Note for Windows XP\n Users
\n\n
Windows XP is no longer\n supported by its original vendor, Microsoft, but if your organisation has\n internal policies that have extended the use of Windows XP, IMPROVE recommends\n that your PCs be migrated to MS Windows 8 or above at your earliest\n convenience. If you are unable to upgrade your PCs at this time, we recommend\n installing the latest version of Google Chrome, as a temporary solution.
\n
\n
\n\n
^Note for Internet Explorer\n 11
\n\n
We will no longer support Microsoft\n Internet Explorer 11 in January 2020. As part of this process, IMPROVE will no\n longer offer maintenance and support related to issues with your platform that\n occur only on Internet Explorer 11 starting on July 31, 2019. Only critical\n issues related to your platform will be supported fixed by IMPROVE’s\n development teams, if necessary. In the meantime, we strongly encourage you to\n start moving you and your learners to one of our other supported browsers.
\n\n
IMPROVE strongly recommends that clients\n maintain updated operating systems (both desktop and mobile) aligned to the\n latest release made available by the respective vendor.
\n\n
Note about Flash Content
\n\n
Please keep in mind that Flash content is\n not playable on iOS devices. Flash was deprecated on Android devices in 2012,\n and desktop browsers are going to deprecate it by 2020. When adding learning\n content to your courses, be sure to avoid adding Flash-based content (in SCORM\n or HTML training materials) because, most likely, the learning content will not\n be playable by learners using mobile devices and modern desktop browsers.
