This Agreement shall automatically terminate in the event that You breach any of this Agreement’s representations, warranties or covenants. Such termination shall be automatic, and shall not require any action by Software-HQ.net.
You may terminate this Agreement and Your rights hereunder at any time, for any or no reason at all, by providing to Software-HQ.net notice of Your intention to do so, in the manner required by this Agreement.
Any termination of this Agreement automatically terminates all rights and licenses granted to You under this Agreement, including all rights to use the Website and Services. Upon termination, Software-HQ.net may, but has no obligation to, in Software-HQ.net’s sole discretion, delete from Software-HQ.net’s systems all User Content, Your Personal Information and any other files or information that You made available to Software-HQ.net or that otherwise relate to Your use of the Website or Services.

This Agreement constitutes the entire agreement between Software-HQ.net and You concerning Your use of the Websites. This Agreement and any other written agreements executed between You and Software-HQ.net constitute the entire agreement concerning Your use of the Services. This Agreement may only be modified by a written amendment signed by an authorized executive of Software-HQ.net or by the unilateral amendment of this Agreement by Software-HQ.net and by the posting by Software-HQ.net of such amended version.
If any part of this Agreement is held invalid or unenforceable, that part will be construed to reflect the parties’ original intent, and the remaining portions will remain in full force and effect. A waiver by either party of any term or condition of this Agreement or any breach thereof, in any one instance, will not waive such term or condition or any subsequent breach thereof.
This Agreement and all of Your rights and obligations hereunder will not be assignable or transferable by You without the prior written consent of Software-HQ.net. This Agreement will be binding upon and will inure to the benefit of the parties, their successors and permitted assigns.
You and Software-HQ.net are independent contractors, and no agency, partnership, joint venture or employee-employer relationship is intended or created by this Agreement.
Except for the Software-HQ.net Parties as and to the extent set forth in Sections 11, 14, 17 and 20(e), and Software-HQ.net’s licensors and suppliers as and to the extent expressly set forth in Section 15, there are no third-party beneficiaries to this Agreement.
You acknowledge and agree that any actual or threatened breach of this Agreement or infringement of proprietary or other third party rights by You would cause irreparable injury to Software-HQ.net and Software-HQ.net’s licensors and suppliers, and would therefore entitle Software-HQ.net or Software-HQ.net’s licensors or suppliers, as the case may be, to injunctive relief.
