If a Loss is found by a court of competent jurisdiction to have been caused only in part by Clearbit, then its liability hereunder will be only such amount as is attributable to its fault. We shall have no liability or obligations under this section arising from Customer Data or an alleged infringement of Intellectual Property Rights arising from the following “Customer-Controlled Matters”: (i) use of the Clearbit Services and/or Software in combination with other equipment or software not provided or approved by us in writing if such claim would have been avoided but for such combined use; (ii) any modification to the Software made by You or any other third party not approved by us in writing or permitted under these Terms; (iii) Your failure to install any Software updates provided by us; or (iv) use of the Clearbit Services and/or Software other than in the manner permitted or authorized under these Terms. For any claim covered by this section, in our sole discretion we may (A) attempt to obtain the right for You to continue to use the Services and Software; or (B) replace or modify the Services and/or Software so that they no longer infringe but are functionally equivalent or (C) if neither (A) or (B) is commercially practicable, we shall have the right to terminate these Terms and refund to Customer all unearned fees paid by Customer, if any, for any Services not yet performed.
