SECTION 11 USERS SUBJECT TO THE JURISDICTION OF THE EU OR TURKEY 

You agree to German jurisdiction as set forth in section 17. However, where the laws of Germany provide a lower degree of consumer protection than the cogent laws of your country of residence the consumer protection laws of your country shall prevail.

SECTION 12 USERS SUBJECT TO THE JURISDICTION OF GERMANY 

For Users subject to the jurisdiction of Germany instead of Sec. 13 "Limitation of Crytek's Liability" the following shall apply: 

Limitation of Crytek's Liability 

a. Crytek is liable for damages, regardless on which legal basis (be it contract, tort or otherwise), only if 

o a) such damages are cause by violation of essential obligations of these Terms of Service (Kardinalpflichten) for Crytek's negligence or intent (Verschulden) which endangers the purpose of the Agreement; or 

ob) such damages are caused by Crytek's gross negligence or intent. 

b. In case that Crytek is liable for the violation of an essential obligation of these Terms of Service (Kardinalpflicht) without acting with gross negligence or intent then the liability is limited to amount of payments received from the respective User. 

c. If Crytek is liable for damages pursuant to Section (a) above for gross negligence or intent of Crytek staff other than the managing directors then the liability is also limited to the amount set forth in Section (b). 

d. Crytek is not liable for indirect or consequential damages (Mangelfolgeschäden), loss of profits or frustrated costs if such damages are not a result of gross negligence or intent of Crytek's managing directors. 

e. The exclusion or limitation of liability pursuant to this Sec. 13 also applies with respect to claims against Crytek's staff or contractors. 

f. The liability of Crytek with respect to death, bodily injury or health, a guarantee by Crytek (if any) or pursuant to the Product Liability Act (Produkthaftungsgesetz) shall remain unaffected. 

g. If the User is also liable for certain damages then Crytek shall bear an amount of such damages in accordance to its contributory negligence (Mitverschulden). With respect to the User's responsibility for reduction of damages (Schadensminderungsobligenheit) the User is responsible for regular back-ups of its data and in case of an assumed bug shall take all further reasonable measures. In case of loss of data Crytek is thus liable only to the extent that such loss of data would have occurred in case of a due data back-up as well.

IN NO CASE SHALL CRYTEK OR CRYTEK AFFILIATES BE LIABLE FOR INCIDENTAL OR CONSEQUENTIAL DAMAGES ARISING FROM YOUR USE OF CRYTEK SERVICES, CRYTEK SOFTWARE, THE INTERNET OR FOR ANY OTHER CLAIM RELATED IN ANY WAY TO YOUR USE OF CRYTEK SERVICES OR ACCOUNTS. BECAUSE SOME STATES OR JURISDICTIONS DO NOT ALLOW THE EXCLUSION OR THE LIMITATION OF LIABILITY FOR CONSEQUENTIAL OR INCIDENTAL DAMAGES, IN SUCH STATES OR JURISDICTIONS, CRYTEK'S AND CRYTEK AFFILIATES' LIABILITY SHALL BE LIMITED TO THE FULL EXTENT PERMITTED BY LAW. CRYTEK DOES NOT ENDORSE, WARRANT OR GUARANTEE ANY THIRD PARTY PRODUCT OR SERVICE OFFERED THROUGH CRYTEK AND WILL NOT BE A PARTY TO OR IN ANY WAY BE RESPONSIBLE FOR MONITORING ANY TRANSACTION BETWEEN YOU AND THIRD-PARTY PROVIDERS OF PRODUCTS OR SERVICES.
