    d) Transition Latency: Switching between indoor and outdoor positioning may result in the Customer experiencing latency. Company cannot ensure instantaneous transitions due to technological constraints.

    g) Wayfinding: Company provides a wayfinding engine to calculate the wayfinding result according to the content provided in this Application. Thus, the Company cannot guarantee the accuracy of wayfinding results or that the wayfinding result is the best or most optimum possibility.


    For the avoidance of doubt, where Mapxus is involved in the provision of such Products and Services mentioned above, the performance limitation shall also be relied upon by Mapxus to its benefit and the Customer acknowledges and accepts that it shall not hold the Company or Mapxus liable for any losses or damages, directly or indirectly resulting from the inability of any Product or Service to achieve anything over and above the performance limitation as disclosed above.

    This limitation of liability section shall apply to the fullest extent permitted by law in the applicable jurisdiction whether the alleged liability is based on contract, tort, negligence, strict liability, or any other basis, even if the Customer has been advised of the possibility of such damage.
