Upon termination, you or your representative must destroy any copies, electronic and printed, of material obtained from the website that you have in your possession or under your control or otherwise return or dispose of such material in the manner directed by DSTI.

It is your responsibility to familiarize yourself with the current terms and conditions each time you visit the website.

Warranties

DSTI does not warrant that the material in the website is accurate, complete or up to date. The existence of inaccurate, incomplete or superseded material in the website will not cause DSTI to be in breach of the terms of this license.

DSTI does not warrant that the functions contained in the website or third-party websites will be uninterrupted or without error, that defects will be corrected, or that electronic material in the website and other third-party websites are free of viruses or other harmful components.

To the extent permitted by law, all implied terms are excluded. If any statute implies terms into this license, which cannot be lawfully excluded, such terms will apply to this license, save that the liability of DSTI for breach of any such implied term will be limited, at the option of DSTI, to any one or more of the following:

The replacement of goods or services to which the breach relates or the supply of equivalent goods or services
The repair of such goods or services
The payment of the cost of replacing the goods or services or of acquiring equivalent goods or services
