Certain software elements of the Services may be subject to U.S. export laws and controls. No software may be downloaded or exported to any country or foreign citizen that is under a U.S. embargo or that would otherwise violate U.S. law or regulations.

If any term or provision in this Agreement is determined to be invalid, void, or unenforceable for any reason, then the unenforceable provision will be deemed amended in a manner that will most nearly carry out the intent of the provision to the fullest extent permitted by applicable law or deleted if amendment is not possible, and the remaining terms and provisions of this Agreement will be enforceable to the fullest extent permitted by law.

Unless otherwise noted, this Agreement, together with our Privacy Policy and any other terms and conditions that appear elsewhere on or through the Services, constitute the entire Agreement of the parties with respect to the Sites and any related Services and supersede all prior communications, promises and proposals, whether oral, written, or electronic, between you and PGP with respect to the Sites and any related Services.
