7. REFERRED BUSINESSES AND LINKED SITES

  1. Diffchecker may provide a referral to an independent business, such as a software developer or software application provider (each a “Referred Business”), and Web Sites and communications from Diffchecker may include advertisements for products or services (including software products) offered by a Referred Business (each a “Referred Product/Service”). Those referrals and advertisements do not guarantee that a Referred Product/Service will be offered or available to you as indicated or at all, or that you will qualify to purchase or receive a Referred Product/Service. The availability of a Referred Product/Service is within the discretion of the relevant Referred Business (not Diffchecker) and will be subject to the terms and conditions specified by the Referred Business (not by Diffchecker).
  2. Referred Businesses are independent from Diffchecker, and Diffchecker does not have any control over, and is not responsible or liable for, any Referred Business or any Referred Product/Service.

  3. Diffchecker does not warrant the authenticity or reliability of the websites linked to the Diffchecker website and is not responsible for the contents of any linked website. The inclusion of a link on the Diffchecker website does not constitute endorsement of the linked website by Diffchecker. Use of any such linked website is at the user’s own risk.
  4. The Site may contain links to other sites on the Internet that are owned and operated by third parties (the “External Sites”). Diffchecker has no control over these External Sites, all of which have separate privacy policies, data collection practices and terms and conditions independent of Diffchecker. Diffchecker has no responsibility or liability for these independent policies or actions and is not responsible for the privacy practices, the terms and conditions or the content of such External Sites. These links to External Sites are only for your convenience and therefore you access them at your own risk. Links do not imply that Diffchecker sponsors, endorses, is affiliated with or associated with, or has been legally authorized to use any trademark, trade name, service mark, design, logo, symbol or other copyrighted materials displayed on or accessible through such External Sites.
