(c) Purchasers’ expectations with respect to the rate of inflation of fiat currencies;

6.4 The Company shall have no liability for any delay, error, interruption, or failure to perform any obligation under these Terms where such delay or failure is directly or indirectly resulting from causes beyond the Company’s control, including but not limited to:

(b) Failure or interruption in public or private telecommunication networks, communication channels, or information systems;
(c) Acts or omissions of acts by a party for whom the Company is not responsible;
