No Consequential Damages. All VYNCS analytics, report, and visualization should be used for informational purpose only, as a tool for decision support. Many of the analytics and visualization modules in VYNCS are generated based on a collection of powerful data mining and statistical techniques. While VYNCS makes every effort to make them as accurate as possible, the performance of these algorithms depends on various issues such as amount of data analyzed, its quality, and the techniques themselves. Sometimes, just like their human counterparts, data analysis techniques may produce results that may not be correct. Bad sensors may also report incorrect data. You should always verify every item in the reportS with qualified technicians. IN NO EVENT SHALL AGNIK OR ITS LICENSORS BE LIABLE TO YOU FOR ANY SPECIAL, INDIRECT, INCIDENTAL OR CONSEQUENTIAL DAMAGES, INCLUDING, BUT NOT LIMITED TO, VOIDED VEHICLE MANUFACTURER’S OR ANY  OTHER PARTY’s WARRANTY FOR YOUR VEHICLE OR ANY VEHICLE PARTS AND OR LABOR, LOSS OF REVENUES OR PROFITS, ANY INCURRED COST RESULTING FROM THE USE OF VYNCS HARDWARE OR SOFTWARE EVEN IF AGNIK OR ITS LICENSORS HAVE BEEN ADVISED OF THE POSSIBILITY OF SUCH DAMAGES.
