5. Accuracy and availability

We take reasonable care to keep the site accurate and up to date. Energy-market figures change often, however, and mistakes are possible. The site is provided on an "as is" and "as available" basis, without warranties of any kind, whether express, implied, statutory, or otherwise, including (without limitation) any warranties of merchantability, fitness for a particular purpose, non-infringement, accuracy, timeliness, or freedom from error, to the fullest extent permitted by applicable law.
