<strong>Native code + open networking.</strong>

The native messaging host runs with your user account’s privileges and can make network
|

connections, read and write files, and open direct peer-to-peer connections to the public
|
||
Hyperswarm DHT. Only install the host and extension from sources you trust. Misconfiguration or a
|

malicious build can expose local data or resources.

<h2 id="your-risk">3. Your risk allocation</h2>
|
||
<p>You are solely responsible for:</p>
|
||
<ul>
|
||
<li>testing in non-production environments before relying on BridgeSwarm for critical use cases;</li>
|
||
<li>reviewing which peers you accept connections from, and what data you expose to them;</li>
|
||
<li>backups and integrity of any Hyper* data structures you create locally;</li>
|
||
<li>compliance with your organization’s security policies and applicable law;</li>

<h2 id="liability">4. Limitation of liability</h2>
|

<p>
|

TO THE MAXIMUM EXTENT PERMITTED BY LAW, IN NO EVENT WILL HONEYPEER, LLC, ITS MEMBERS, OFFICERS, EMPLOYEES, AGENTS, OR CONTRIBUTORS BE LIABLE FOR ANY
|
||
INDIRECT, INCIDENTAL, SPECIAL, CONSEQUENTIAL, EXEMPLARY, OR PUNITIVE DAMAGES; OR ANY LOSS OF PROFITS, REVENUE, DATA, GOODWILL, OR BUSINESS INTERRUPTION;
|
||
OR COST OF SUBSTITUTE GOODS OR SERVICES; ARISING OUT OF OR RELATED TO BRIDGESWARM OR HONEYPEER SITES, WHETHER BASED IN CONTRACT, TORT (INCLUDING NEGLIGENCE), STRICT LIABILITY, OR OTHERWISE,
|
||
EVEN IF ADVISED OF THE POSSIBILITY OF SUCH DAMAGES.
|
||
</p>
|
||
<p>
|
||
TO THE MAXIMUM EXTENT PERMITTED BY LAW, HONEYPEER’S TOTAL AGGREGATE LIABILITY FOR ALL CLAIMS RELATING TO BRIDGESWARM OR THE SITES SHALL NOT EXCEED THE GREATER OF
|
||
(A) THE AMOUNTS YOU PAID TO HONEYPEER FOR THE SPECIFIC PRODUCT OR SERVICE GIVING RISE TO THE CLAIM DURING THE TWELVE (12) MONTHS PRIOR TO THE CLAIM, OR
|
||
(B) ONE HUNDRED U.S. DOLLARS (US $100).
|
||
</p>
|
||
<p>
|
||
Because some jurisdictions do not allow certain exclusions, some of the above may not apply to you; in that case, liability is limited to the minimum extent required by law.
