Business Weekly shall use reasonable endeavours to promptly remedy any faults in the Website of which it is aware.

You agree that your only other remedy (including for negligence) for any damages that you incur arising out of your use of the Website (to the extent Business Weekly's liability is not excluded by this Section 4) is as follows:
