Governing Law
These Terms of Use shall be construed in accordance with and governed by the laws of the State of
California without reference to conflict of law rules. You hereby irrevocably consent to the exclusive
jurisdiction of the courts of the State of California, United States, for all disputes arising out of or
related to the use of the Site or Service.
Severability; Waiver
If, for any reason, a court of competent jurisdiction finds any term or condition in these Terms of Use to
be unenforceable, all other terms and conditions will remain unaffected and in full force and effect. No
waiver of any breach of any provision of these Terms of Use shall constitute a waiver of any prior,
concurrent, or subsequent breach of the same or any other provisions hereof, and no waiver shall be
effective unless made in writing and signed by an authorized representative of the waiving party.
Arbitration Agreement
Any dispute or claim relating in any way to your use of this website, including any related calls, texts,
or other communications, will be resolved by binding arbitration, rather than in court, except that you may
assert claims in small-claims court if your claims qualify. This includes claims against our clients,
vendors, and marketing partners, which are third-party beneficiaries of this arbitration agreement. The
Federal Arbitration Act and federal arbitration law apply to this agreement.
There is no judge or jury in arbitration, and court review of an arbitration award is limited. However, an
arbitrator can award on an individual basis the same damages and relief as a court (including injunctive
and declaratory relief or statutory damages), and must follow the terms of these Terms of Use as a court
would.
The arbitration may be conducted by the American Arbitration Association (AAA) under its rules, including
the AAA’s Supplementary Procedures for Consumer-Related Disputes. The AAA’s rules are available at
www.adr.org or by calling 1-800-778-7879. You may choose
to have the arbitration conducted by telephone, based on written submissions, or in person in the county
where you live or at another mutually agreed location.
We each agree that any dispute resolution proceedings will be conducted only on an individual basis and not
in a class, consolidated, or representative action. If for any reason a claim proceeds in court rather than
in arbitration, we each waive any right to a jury trial. We also both agree that you or we may bring suit
in court to enjoin infringement or other misuse of intellectual property rights.
Modifications
The Company may, in its sole discretion and without prior notice, (a) revise these Terms of Use; (b)
modify the Site and/or the Service; and (c) discontinue the Site and/or Service at any time. The Company
will post any revision to these Terms of Use to the Site, and the revision shall be effective immediately
upon posting. You agree to review these Terms of Use and other online policies posted on the Site
periodically to be aware of any revisions. By continuing to use or access the Site following notice of any
revision, you agree to abide by any such revision.
