you may access through your use of the Services may contain material that you consider indecent, objectionable or which may not be suitable for children.
If you permit a child to use your LG Smart TV to access the Services, you are solely responsible for deciding whether or not the relevant Services are appropriate for access by that child.
[Your Smart TV oers a parental control tool (by way of a 4 digit PIN). If you have enabled the 4-digit PIN, your LG Smart TV will not be able to display restricted content unless you type in the PIN. You are responsible for setting up and maintaining the parental control tool and any other controls that are available, and we will not be responsible for any harm, loss or damage you suer or any other user of your LG Smart TV suers as a result of your failure to do so. Depending on the models of your LG Smart TV, these features may not be available.

Services will be free from bugs, viruses, or other vulnerabilities.
Further, we do not accept responsibility for any loss or damage caused by a virus, distributed denial­of-service attack, or other technologically harmful material that may infect your LG Smart TV, data or other material belonging to you, during your use of the Services.
