GENERAL

These Terms do not, and will not be construed to, create any partnership, joint venture, employer-employee, agency, or franchisor-franchisee relationship between you and Simplesense. If any provision of these Terms is found to be unlawful, void or for any reason unenforceable, that provision will be deemed severable from these Terms and will not affect the validity and enforceability of any remaining provision.

All terms defined in the singular will have the same meanings when used in the plural, where appropriate and unless otherwise specified. Any use of the term “including” or variations thereof in these Terms will be construed as if followed by the phrase “without limitation.”

These Terms, including any terms and conditions incorporated herein, constitute the entire agreement between you and Simplesense relating to the subject matter hereof, and supersede any and all prior or contemporaneous written or oral agreements or understandings between you and Simplesense relating to such subject matter.
