ConductAtlas Analysis

Why it matters (compliance & governance perspective)

The exclusion of consequential and indirect damages means that even significant downstream losses—such as lost profits or business interruption caused by a service failure—cannot be recovered by either party.

Interpretive note: The excerpt contains an ellipsis after 'INCIDENTAL', indicating the full list of excluded damages may be longer than what is quoted. The canonical claim covers only the categories explicitly present in the excerpt.

Consumer impact (what this means for users)

You cannot recover from Snowflake for lost profits, lost or inaccurate data, business interruption, cover costs, costs of delay, or indirect, special, or incidental damages arising under the Agreement.
