Liability for defects
Nexway warrants that all products sold are subject to the General Business Terms. Products have been tested and will function within the parameters for which they were created and as described on the website. However, Nexway does not guarantee that software products meet the expectations of the Customer and that the software will run without defects under all circumstances. Neither does Nexway provide any guarantee of specific functions and results of the software; provided that this is within its intended design parameters and exceeds the current minimum standard for software technology at the time the program is created. The same applies to the correctness or completeness of any documentation enclosed with the software.
Should the product be defective on delivery, making the intended use impossible, Nexway will, at its own discretion, either replace the product or refund the purchase price to the Customer at its own discretion within the statutory period from the date of purchase. This only applies to products which are obtained directly from Nexway online. Nexway makes no warranty or guarantee of products downloaded by the Customer from a source other than the Nexway website. The Customer needs to send full details of the defective product and the nature of the defect to Nexway's Customer service at : http://avast.nexway.com/contact.html?Langue=en_US. Nexway accepts no further liability for direct or indirect damage occurring due to the use of a product, provided that this damage is not the result of Nexway's willful intent or severe negligence and provided that liability may in law be excluded. Nexway is under no circumstances liable for unforeseeable damage or indirect or consequential loss of any kind.
Nexway accepts no liability for damage occurring due to incorrect handling, in particular failure to observe any operating instructions, faulty commissioning, faulty handling or unsuitable accessories.

Data protection/cookies
Nexway uses the Customer's personal data exclusively for the purpose of handling the order. All Customer data will be stored and processed only in compliance with the relevant regulations of the relevant data protection laws.
Customers have the right to review, correct, block and delete their stored data free of charge at any time. Nexway will not share personal data including home address and email address with any third party without the express consent of the Customer, which may be revoked at any time. Nexway's service partners who require the transfer of data for the purposes of handling the order (e.g. the carrier contracted to make delivery and the credit institution contracted to handle payment) are excluded from this provision. In these cases the scope of data transferred is, however, limited to the necessary minimum. Nexway has implemented technical features and organizational security measures to protect Customer data handled against accidental or deliberate changes, loss or destruction and against access by unauthorized persons.
Credit card information is encoded by 128 Bit SSL (Secure Socket Layer) and transferred to a payment gateway which is directly connected to the credit card processing service. Data is verified online and payment is processed before the goods are delivered (cash in advance).
The Avast website uses cookies to store and retrieve Customer information. Information about the Customer, user names and the national currency selected are stored in the cookies which can then be used when the Customer returns.
When a Customer registers with Nexway or wishes to place an order, Nexway requires Customer data. Returning Avast Customers simply log on with their user name and personal password. The data stored in a cookie makes it unnecessary to complete some of the forms and assists in error-free navigation. The cookies will expire after 5 years. Customers may manage the acceptance of cookies by changing the privacy settings in their Internet browser application and block them if they wish.

Governing Law and Jurisdiction
These General Business Terms and related policies and agreements shall be governed by and interpreted in accordance with French law. Anyone accessing the Avast website from outside the United States is personally responsible for observing local laws if and to the extent that they are applicable to the products or the Customer's use of them.

Saving clause
Should any part of these General Business Term be deemed unenforceable by a court competent to deal with disputes under them, the operability of the other parts is not thereby affected. Any part deemed unenforceable shall if possible be deemed amended in so far only as to make it enforceable.

Whole agreement
These General Business Terms are the basis for and contain all the legal agreements between the parties relative to the object of their contract and operate to the exclusion of all other verbal or written agreements.
This clause is not intended to limit Nexway's liability for fraudulent misrepresentation.
