Auto Trader shall not be liable for any loss suffered by the Advertiser in such circumstances.
2. Each Advertiser shall indemnify and keep Auto Trader fully indemnified against all claims, costs, proceedings, demands, losses, damages, expenses or liability whatsoever arising out of or in connection with any Consumer complaints or claims brought against Auto Trader in respect of any subsequent reduction in the Lead Valuation following a Consumer Enquiry, and any subsequent transaction between the Consumer and Advertiser for the purchase by the Advertiser of any Permitted Vehicle.
