The updated terms remove explicit language that previously stated Geico would not be responsible for damages resulting from website use, technical failures, viruses, or service interruptions. Previously, the terms detailed specific categories of harm (performance failures, computer viruses, line failures) that Geico disclaimed responsibility for. The new terms no longer include these itemized liability limitations, though they establish a general acceptance framework requiring agreement to the terms as a condition of site access. The operational consequence is that the explicit liability shield for website-related harms is no longer stated in these terms.
