 impact on us; however, future disruptions from the foregoing factors or unauthorized access to, fraudulent manipulation of, or tampering with our systems, technological infrastructure and data, or those of third parties, could result in a wide range of negative outcomes, each of which could materially adversely affect our business, financial condition, results of operations and prospects.

Because our platform and offerings are complex and incorporate a variety of hardware and proprietary and third-party software, they may contain errors, bugs, flaws or corrupted data, which may become apparent only after their launch and

Online platforms and offerings such as ours frequently contain undetected errors when first introduced or when new versions or enhancements are released.
