Such flow depends in large part on the performance of Internet services provided or controlled by third parties.  At times, actions or inactions of such third parties can impair or disrupt the Customer’s connections to the Internet (or portions thereof). iRiS cannot guarantee that such events will not occur. Accordingly, IRIS®, its suppliers and subcontractors, if any, disclaim any and all liability resulting from or related to such events and Customer shall have no claim in respect thereof.
