11. Limitation of Liability

To the fullest extent permitted by law, GEO, its officers, directors, employees, and affiliates will not be liable for any indirect, incidental, special, consequential, or punitive damages arising out of or related to your use of (or inability to use) the Services, even if advised of the possibility of such damages.
