in certain ways. You may not

apply to you:
a) Australia. You have statutory guarantees under the Australian Consumer Law and nothing in this
agreement is intended to affect those rights.
b) Canada. If you acquired this software in Canada, you may stop receiving updates by turning off
the automatic update feature, disconnecting your device from the Internet (if and when you re-

updates for your specific device or software.

on the Product Liability Act, as well as in case of death or personal or physical injury, Microsoft is
liable according to the statutory law.
Subject to the foregoing clause (ii), Microsoft will only be liable for slight negligence if Microsoft is in
breach of such material contractual obligations, the fulfillment of which facilitate the due
performance of this agreement, the breach of which would endanger the purpose of this agreement
and the compliance with which a party may constantly trust in (so-called "cardinal obligations"). In
other cases of slight negligence, Microsoft will not be liable for slight negligence
