Upon the termination or expiration of the Agreement (unless continued Processing is subject to a new or amended agreement) and to the extent not prohibited by applicable law, ON24 will within 90 days (the “Cessation Date”) cease Processing and delete or return the Client Personal Data. If Client does not inform ON24 of its choice of either return or deletion of such Client Personal Data at least 30 days prior to the Cessation Date, then Client will be deemed to have chosen deletion. The parties agree that ON24 is not required to return or delete any Anonymous Data at the conclusion of the Agreement.

14. Limitation of Liability

The aggregate liability of ON24 arising out of or related to these DP Terms, whether in contract, tort or under any other theory of liability, is subject to the limitations on liability in the Agreement.
