In the event that you have a dispute with one or more other users, you release Kittybiotechnologies, its officers, employees, agents, and successors from claims, demands, and damages of every kind or nature, known or unknown, suspected or unsuspected, disclosed or undisclosed, arising out of or in any way related to such disputes and/or our Services.

    We're always trying to improve the Services, so they may change over time. We may suspend or discontinue any part of the Services, or we may introduce new features or impose limits on certain features or restrict access to parts or all of the Services. We'll try to give you notice when we make a material change to the Services that would adversely affect you, but this isn't always practical. Similarly, we reserve the right to remove any Content from the Services at any time, for any reason (including, but not limited to, if someone alleges you contributed that Content in violation of these Terms), in our sole discretion, and without notice.

    Kittybiotechnologies reserves the right to require payment of fees for certain or all Services. Please refer to our pricing page for details on our plans and pricing information.

    Kittybiotechnologies is also free to terminate (or suspend access to) your use of the Services or your account, for any reason in our discretion, including your breach of these Terms. Kittybiotechnologies has the sole right to decide whether you are in violation of any of the restrictions set forth in these Terms.

    Account termination may result in destruction of any Content associated with your account, so keep that in mind before you decide to terminate your account. We will try to provide advance notice to you prior to our terminating your account so that you are able to retrieve any important User Submissions you may have stored in your account (to the extent allowed by law, these Terms, and any other agreements to which you’re subject), but we may not do so if we determine it would be impractical, illegal, not in the interest of someone's safety or security, or otherwise harmful to the rights or property of Kittybiotechnologies.

    If you have deleted your account by mistake, contact us immediately at our support, we will try to help, but unfortunately, we can't promise that we can recover or restore anything.

    Provisions that, by their nature, should survive termination of these Terms shall survive termination.
