7. Services Interruption; Term; Termination
From time to time, we may need to perform maintenance on or upgrade the Service, or temporarily suspend part or all of the Service. Notice is not always possible. You will not be entitled to claim expenses or damages for such suspension or limitation of the use of the Service.
These Terms apply to your use of the Service and will continue to apply until ended by either you or upon notice from Mozilla or TokBox. You can choose to end them at any time for any reason by discontinuing your use of the Service.
We may suspend or terminate your access to the Service or your Firefox Account at any time for any reason, including, but not limited to, if we reasonably believe: (i) you have violated these Terms (ii) you create risk or possible legal exposure for Mozilla or TokBox; or (iii) the provision of the Service to you is no longer commercially viable. If possible, we will make reasonable efforts to notify you by the email address associated with your Firefox Account or the next time you attempt to access the Service.
In all such cases, these Terms shall terminate, including, without limitation, your license to use the Service, except that the following sections shall continue to apply: Indemnification, Disclaimer; Limitation of Liability and Miscellaneous.
