All liability of Editrix, its directors, employees, agents, representatives, partners, suppliers or content providers howsoever arising for any loss suffered as a result of your use of the site, service, content or user submissions is expressly excluded to the fullest extent permitted by law, save that, if a court of competent jurisdiction determines that liability of Editrix, its directors, employees, agents, representatives, partners, suppliers or content providers (as applicable) has arisen, the total of such liability shall be limited in aggregate to one thousand rupees (Rs. 1000).
