- Loss of data, content, or intellectual property
- Business interruption or decreased efficiency
- Reputational harm or loss of goodwill
- Costs of procuring substitute goods or services
These exclusions apply regardless of the legal theory asserted, whether in contract, tort (including negligence), strict liability, or otherwise, even if WebCraft Studios has been advised of the possibility of such damages.
