You agree to indemnify and hold harmless TerraVue USA and its owner, employees, contractors, and agents from any claims, damages, losses, liabilities, and expenses (including reasonable attorney's fees) arising out of your use of the Services, your violation of these Terms, or your violation of any third-party rights.
