All activities engaged in through the Application are subject to this Policy. This Policy explains what information EXP collects about its Users, how EXP uses and/or shares this information, and how such information is maintained. By using the Application, you accept the terms of this Policy. This Policy applies only with respect to the information collected by EXP through the Application, and not any information collected or obtained through other methods or sources. Please note that EXP may change this Policy at any time (See “Changes to this Policy,” below), and that EXP may in the future use your information for additional purposes not currently included in this Policy.

2.3 How PII is Protected. We appreciate our Users and take your privacy seriously. Any PII that is stored on our computers is protected from unauthorized access and use via passwords as well as other standard industry-acknowledged means. Our servers which store this information are protected by a firewall. We take additional precautions for PII which is especially sensitive, such as financial information. We will only request or transmit this information over secure Internet connections using precautions such as Secure Sockets Layer (SSL) encryption, security keys and password authentication from any third parties receiving this information. Though we take the utmost precautions to protect your PII, please be informed that no data transmission over a cellular phone or the Internet, nor any storage of information on servers or other media, is ever 100% completely secure. While we aim to protect your PII to the greatest extent possible, this policy is not intended to be, and should not be construed as, a warranty or guarantee of absolute security of your PII. As always, you should use common sense whenever you disclose personal information over the Internet or a cellular network, regardless of the applications or Application(s) you use. If you suspect that your PII is being used in connection with the Application in a manner contrary to this Privacy Policy, please let us know immediately. To contact us, please send an email to customerservice@exptraining.net.

2.4 Non-Personally Identifiable Information. EXP may also collect certain non-personally identifiable information, including but not limited to the information more fully described below. Authentication Tokens. EXP may use authentication tokens on the Application. Authentication tokens are small pieces of information that enable the Application to more easily communicate and interact with the User. For example, EXP may place an authentication token on a User`s mobile device if a User uses that device to register for EXP’s Application. The next time that User uses the Application, EXP`s server will recognize the authentication token (and the User) and allow the User to perform certain actions immediately without having to log in.

2.5 Mobile Device Identifiers. EXP may collect information about the mobile devices from which you access the Application. We may collect and store the unique identifier assigned to your mobile device(s) by the manufacturer, or other identifying information about your device.

2.6 Cookies. To provide better service and a more effective Application, we sometimes use first-party and third-party “cookies” as part of our interaction with your browser. A cookie is a small text file placed on your computer’s hard drive by our web page server. Cookies are commonly used on applications and do not harm your system. By configuring your preferences or options in your browser, you determine if and how a cookie will be accepted. We use cookies to determine if you have previously visited our Application and the pages you have visited, and for a number of administrative, marketing or remarketing purposes. We use both first-party and third-party cookies for different purposes:

2.7 First-party cookies and third-party cookies. Cookies can be first-party or third-party. A first-party cookie is one that you receive directly from Company when visiting our Application. A third-party cookie is one that you have received from another party, such as Google or Facebook. We do not control what third parties do on other Applications. However, we may work with certain third-party providers such as Google or Facebook to permit their cookies to function through our Application so we can learn more about your web experience on our Application and better personalize our services for you.

2.8 Persistent and session cookies. A persistent cookie is a cookie that is stored by the web browser on your device until it expires or you delete it. The expiration of a persistent cookie is determined by the creator of the cookie and can be upon a certain date or after a length of session time has passed. This means that, for the cookie’s entire lifespan, its information will be transmitted to the creator’s server every time the user visits the Application that it belongs to or another website or application configured to check for that cookie (such as an advertisement placed on that website or application). For this reason, persistent cookies are also called “tracking cookies.” A session cookie is created temporarily on your device for use by the Application during your visit. This type of cookie may store information you enter and track your activity within the Application. A session cookie is deleted after you leave the Application or when the Application is closed. A good example of a session cookie is the shopping cart on an e-commerce Application. The session cookie stores the items that you add to your cart so they are not forgotten while you view products on other pages of the Application. Using a session cookie, the items will all be in the cart when you go to the checkout page.

2.9 Other Data. All photographs, opinions, ideas, suggestions, other feedback, and all other information submitted by You through the Application may be used by us without any restriction and free of charge. In certain areas of our Application, such as when you request more information, should you abandon a form on our Application, your information may still be collected and utilized for notices or communications pertaining to the Application, products or services. If you choose not to provide personal information, you can still browse most of our Application (the areas that do not require registration) anonymously. If you place a call to us, whether by landline or mobile device, we may also capture your phone number and any other information you provide during the call. This information may also be used to communicate with you about the Application, products or services via phone, mail, email, social media or third-party applications.

When you visit our Application, we may directly and through third-party service providers automatically log certain information about your visit including: the pages you visit while on our Application; the IP address of a referring Application, if any; the type of browser, device or hardware you are using; your IP address and general geographic information; and the date and time you accessed our Application. Through the use of third-party tools, such as Google Analytics (Remarketing, Display Network Impression Reporting, Demographics and Interest Reporting, and other integrated services), we may also collect certain demographic information and information about interests from a portion of the visitors to our Application. This information may link to personal data that you voluntarily provide to us which will allow us to serve interest-based ads and content.
Although the information collected through the foregoing methods does not itself contain any PII, EXP may analyze and match such information with other information that you provide (including PII) as well as information that EXP may obtain elsewhere, and EXP may share all or some of such information with actual or prospective movers, van lines, or other third parties. EXP may also disclose non-PII in order to comply with applicable laws; respond to governmental inquiries; comply with valid legal process; or protect the rights or property of EXP or Users of the Application.

2.10 Access to Your Information. If you want to review, correct or change your User information, please submit your request in writing to customerservice@exptraining.net.

2.11 Third Party Services. EXP’s communications to you as well as the Application, may contain links to the Applications of other providers of products and services that may be of interest to you. We may also use third-party service providers to serve interest-based advertisements on our behalf on our Application(s), social media networks and across the Internet. These advertising service providers may collect non-identifiable information about your visits to our Application, and your interactions with our products and services. Such non-identifiable information does not include your name, address, email address or other personal information. The information is collected through the use of cookies and pixel tags (also known as action tags), which is industry-standard technology used by most major Applications. Interest-based ads are then displayed based on the information that is collected.

In addition to the information about your visits to our Application, our service providers may also use the information about your visits to other Applications to target advertisements for programs and services available from us.

When you click the link to one of these other entities, you will leave the Application and be connected to the website or application of such entity. In such an event, this Policy will not apply to your use of, and activities on, those third-party websites or applications. EXP does not have any control over the information handling practices of these other entities, and you should familiarize yourself with the privacy policies of such other entities before you share any PII with them. We encourage you to read all other legal notices posted by these other entities as well. EXP shall have no responsibility or liability for your visitation to, and the data collection and use policies and practices of, these other entities.

2.12 Security. While EXP takes reasonable precautions to safeguard information transmitted between EXP and Users of the Application EXP may be unable to prevent unauthorized access to such information by third parties or inadvertent disclosure of such information. Users acknowledge this risk when communicating with EXP.

2.13 Consent to Processing. By providing PII and other information to EXP, Users of the Application fully understand and unambiguously consent to the collection and processing of such information in, and the transfer of such information to, the United States and other countries or territories, in accordance with the terms of this Policy.

2.14 Transfer in Certain Circumstances. In its sole discretion, EXP may transfer, sell or assign information collected on or about Users of the Application, including without limitation, PII and other User-provided information, to one or more third parties as a result of the sale, merger, consolidation, change in control, transfer of substantial assets, reorganization or liquidation of EXP.

2.15 Opt Out. We honor all requests to be removed from our marketing lists. If you do not want to receive e-mail, telephone messages or direct mail from us, contact us at customerservice@exptraining.net and we will remove your name from our in-house list and add you to our marketing suppression list. You will also have an opportunity to add your phone number to our internal “Do Not Call” list during each phone call you receive from us.

2.16 We are fully committed to complying with your wishes regarding receiving commercial e-mail messages from us and with the laws regarding unsolicited e-mail. If for any reason you receive a commercial message directly from us or on our behalf more than ten days after making a request to be taken off our mailing list, we would request that you forward a copy of the e-mail to customerservice@exptraining.net with a brief explanation of your efforts to unsubscribe and the approximate timeframe you made the request. We will immediately investigate the matter, confirm that you have been removed, and provide a written response to you detailing our efforts. Please note that requests to be removed from our direct mail list will be processed as soon as possible, but given the nature of direct mail, it may be impossible to prevent a mailing that is being processed or underway from reaching you.

Your Rights and Choices: The CCPA provides consumers (California residents) with specific rights regarding their personal information. This section

describes your CCPA rights and explains how to exercise those rights.

Access to Specific Information and Data Portability Rights

You have the right to request that we disclose certain information to you about our collection and use of your personal information over the past 12 months. Once we receive and confirm your verifiable consumer request, we will disclose to you:

  • The categories of personal information we collected about you.
  • The categories of sources for the personal information we collected about you.
  • Our business or commercial purpose for collecting or selling that personal information.
  • The categories of third parties with whom we share that personal information.
  • The specific pieces of personal information we collected about you (also called a data portability request).
  • If we sold or disclosed your personal information for a business purpose, two separate lists disclosing:

o sales,identifyingthepersonalinformationcategoriesthateachcategoryofrecipientpurchased;and
o disclosuresforabusinesspurpose,identifyingthepersonalinformationcategoriesthateachcategoryofrecipientobtained.

Deletion Request Rights. You have the right to request that we delete any of your personal information that we collected from you and retained, subject to certain exceptions. Once we receive and confirm your verifiable consumer request, we will delete (and direct our service providers to delete) your personal information from our records, unless an exception applies.

We may deny your deletion request if retaining the information is necessary for us or our service providers to:

  1. Complete the transaction for which we collected the personal information, provide a good or service that you requested, take actions reasonably anticipated within the context of our ongoing business relationship with you, or otherwise perform our contract with you.
  2. Detect security incidents, protect against malicious, deceptive, fraudulent, or illegal activity, or prosecute those responsible for such activities.
  3. Debug products to identify and repair errors that impair existing intended functionality.
  4. Exercise free speech, ensure the right of another consumer to exercise their free speech rights, or exercise another right provided for by law.
  5. Comply with the California Electronic Communications Privacy Act (Cal. Penal Code § 1546 ).
  6. Engage in public or peer-reviewed scientific, historical, or statistical research in the public interest that adheres to all other applicable ethics and privacy laws, when the information’s deletion may likely render impossible or seriously impair the research’s achievement, if you previously provided informed consent.
  7. Enable solely internal uses that are reasonably aligned with consumer expectations based on your relationship with us.
  8. Comply with a legal obligation.
  9. Make other internal and lawful uses of that information that are compatible with the context in which you provided it.

Exercising Access, Data Portability, and Deletion Rights. To exercise the access, data portability, and deletion rights described above, please submit a verifiable consumer request to us by emailing us at customerservice@exptraining.net.
Only you or a person registered with the California Secretary of State that you authorize to act on your behalf, may make a verifiable consumer request related to your personal information. You may also make a verifiable consumer request on behalf of your minor child.

You may only make a verifiable consumer request for access or data portability twice within a 12-month period. The verifiable consumer request must:

  • Provide sufficient information that allows us to reasonably verify you are the person about whom we collected personal information or an authorized representative.
  • Describe your request with sufficient detail that allows us to properly understand, evaluate, and respond to it.
    We cannot respond to your request or provide you with personal information if we cannot verify your identity or authority to make the request and confirm the personal information relates to you. Making a verifiable consumer request does not require you to create an account with us. We will only use personal information provided in a verifiable consumer request to verify the requestor’s identity or authority to make the request.

Response Timing and Format. We endeavor to respond to a verifiable consumer request within 45 days of its receipt. If we require more time (up to 90 days), we will inform you of the reason and extension period in writing. If you have an account with us, we will deliver our written response to that account. If you do not have an account with us, we will deliver our written response by mail or electronically, at your option. Any disclosures we provide will only cover the 12-month period preceding the verifiable consumer request’s receipt. The response we provide will also explain the reasons we cannot comply with a request, if applicable. For data portability requests, we will select a format to provide your personal information that is readily useable and should allow you to transmit the information from one entity to another entity without hindrance.

We do not charge a fee to process or respond to your verifiable consumer request unless it is excessive, repetitive, or manifestly unfounded. If we determine that the request warrants a fee, we will tell you why we made that decision and provide you with a cost estimate before completing your request.

Non-Discrimination. We will not discriminate against you for exercising any of your CCPA rights. Unless permitted by the CCPA, we will not: • Deny you goods or services.

  • Charge you different prices or rates for goods or services, including through granting discounts or other benefits, or imposing penalties.
  • Provide you a different level or quality of goods or services.
  • Suggest that you may receive a different price or rate for goods or services or a different level or quality of goods or services.

3. Confidentiality.
3.1 Confidential Information. In connection with this Agreement each party (as the “Disclosing Party”) may disclose or make available

Confidential Information to the other party (as the “Receiving Party”). Subject to Section7.2, “Confidential Information” means information in any form or medium (whether oral, written, electronic, or other) that the Disclosing Party considers confidential or proprietary, including information consisting of or relating to the Disclosing Party’s technology, trade secrets, know-how, business operations, plans, strategies, End Users, and pricing, and information with respect to which the Disclosing Party has contractual or other confidentiality obligations, in each case whether or not marked, designated, or otherwise identified as “confidential”. Without limiting the foregoing: all Provider Materials are the Confidential Information of Provider.

3.2 Exclusions. Confidential Information does not include information that the Receiving Party can demonstrate by written or other documentary records: (a) was rightfully known to the Receiving Party without restriction on use or disclosure prior to such information’s being disclosed or made available to the Receiving Party in connection with this Agreement; (b) was or becomes generally known by the public other than by the Receiving Party’s or any of its Representatives’ noncompliance with this Agreement; (c) was or is received by the Receiving Party on a non-confidential basis from a third party that, to the Receiving Party’s knowledge, was not or is not, at the time of such receipt, under any obligation to maintain its confidentiality; or (d) the Receiving Party can demonstrate by written or other documentary records was or is independently developed by the Receiving Party without reference to or use of any Confidential Information.

3.3 Protection of Confidential Information. As a condition to being provided with any disclosure of or access to Confidential Information, the Receiving Party shall: (a) not access or use Confidential Information other than as necessary to exercise its rights or perform its obligations under and in accordance with this Agreement and Provider’s agreements with its Third Party Service Providers; (b) except as may be permitted by and subject to its compliance with Section7.4, not disclose or permit access to Confidential Information other than to its Representatives and Third Party Service Providers who: (i) need to know such Confidential Information for purposes of the Receiving Party’s exercise of its rights or performance of its obligations under and in accordance with this Agreement and Provider’s agreements with its Third Party Service Providers; (ii) have been informed of the confidential nature of the Confidential Information and the Receiving Party’s obligations under this Section 7.3; and (iii) are bound by written confidentiality and restricted use obligations at least as protective of the Confidential Information as the terms set forth in this Section 7; (c) safeguard the Confidential Information from unauthorized use, access, or disclosure using at least the degree of care it uses to protect its similarly sensitive information and in no event less than a reasonable degree of care; (d) promptly notify the Disclosing Party of any unauthorized use or disclosure of Confidential Information and use commercially reasonable efforts to prevent further unauthorized use or disclosure; (e) ensure its Representatives’ compliance with, and be responsible and liable for, any of its Representatives’ non-compliance with, the terms of this Section 7. For clarity, nothing in this Section 7 prohibits Provider from sharing User Data, even if such is considered Confidential Information, with Third Party Service Providers and to perform the Services. Notwithstanding any other provisions of this Agreement, the Receiving Party’s obligations under this Section 7 with respect to any Confidential Information that constitutes a trade secret under any applicable Law will continue until such time, if ever, as such Confidential Information ceases to qualify for trade secret protection under one or more such applicable Laws other than as a result of any act or omission of the Receiving Party or any of its Representatives.

3.4 Compelled Disclosures. If the Receiving Party or any of its Representatives is compelled by applicable Law to disclose any Confidential Information then, to the extent permitted by applicable Law, the Receiving Party shall: (a) promptly, and prior to such disclosure, notify the Disclosing Party in writing of such requirement so that the Disclosing Party can seek a protective order or other remedy or waive its rights under Section 7.3; and (b) provide reasonable assistance to the Disclosing Party in opposing such disclosure or seeking a protective order or other limitations on disclosure. If the Disclosing Party waives compliance or, after providing the notice and assistance required under this Section 7.4, the Receiving Party remains required by Law to disclose any Confidential Information, the Receiving Party shall disclose only that portion of the Confidential Information that, on the advice of the Receiving Party’s legal counsel, the Receiving Party is legally required to disclose and, on the Disclosing Party’s request, shall use commercially reasonable efforts to obtain assurances from the applicable court or other presiding authority that such Confidential Information will be afforded confidential treatment.

4. Intellectual Property Rights.

To the extent Provider uses or discloses End User Data or User PHI for the purposes set forth herein or to carry out Provider’s legal responsibilities, Provider will ensure that (i) such disclosures are required by Applicable Law or (ii) Provider obtains prior written reasonable assurances from the person to whom the information is disclosed that the information will remain confidential and used or further disclosed only as required by Applicable Law or for the purpose(s) for which it was disclosed to the person, and the person notifies Provider of any instances of which it is aware in which the confidentiality of the information has been breached in accordance with the breach notification requirements herein.

5. Representations and Warranties.
5.1 Mutual Representations and Warranties. Each party represents and warrants to the other party that: (a) it has the full right, power,

and authority to enter into and perform its obligations and grant the rights, licenses, consents, and authorizations it grants or is required to grant under this Agreement; (b)use of the Services constitutes the legal, valid, and binding obligation of each party, enforceable against such party in accordance with its terms.

6. Indemnification.
6.1 End User Indemnification. End User shall indemnify, defend, and hold harmless Provider and its Subcontractors and Affiliates, and

each of its and their respective officers, directors, employees, agents, successors, and assigns (each, a “Provider Indemnitee”) from and against any and all Losses incurred by such Provider Indemnitee resulting from any Action by a third party (other than an Affiliate of a Provider Indemnitee) to the extent that such Losses arise out of or result from, or are alleged to arise out of or result from: (a) End User Data, including any Processing of End User Data by or on behalf of Provider in accordance with this Agreement; (b) any other materials or information (including any documents, data, specifications, software, content, or technology) provided by or on behalf of End User or any End User, including Provider’s compliance with any specifications or directions provided by or on behalf of End User or any End User to the extent prepared without any contribution by Provider; (c) allegation of facts that, if true, would constitute End User’s breach of any of its representations, warranties, covenants, or obligations under this Agreement; or (d) negligence or more culpable act or omission (including recklessness or willful misconduct) by End User, or any third party on behalf of End User, in connection with this Agreement.

8. Termination.
8.1 Termination. In addition to any other express termination right set forth elsewhere in this Agreement: These Terms are effective

unless and until terminated by you or us. We may, in our sole and absolute discretion, deny you access to all or part of the Services at any time for any or no reason at all, with or without notice to you.

9. MANDATORY ARBITRATION AND CLASS ACTION WAIVER. PLEASE READ THIS SECTION CAREFULLY. IT AFFECTS YOUR LEGAL RIGHTS, INCLUDING YOUR RIGHT TO FILE A LAWSUIT IN COURT.

9.1 Application. End User, and Provider agree that these Terms affect interstate commerce and that the Federal Arbitration Act governs the interpretation and enforcement of these arbitration provisions. This Section 13 is intended to be interpreted broadly and governs any and all disputes between us including but not limited to claims arising out of or relating to any aspect of the relationship between us, whether based in contract, tort, statute, fraud, misrepresentation or any other legal theory; claims that arose before these Terms or any prior agreement (including, but not limited to, claims related to advertising); and claims that may arise after the termination of these Terms. The only disputes excluded from this broad prohibition are the litigation of certain intellectual property and small court claims, as provided below.

9.2 Initial Dispute Resolution. Most disputes can be resolved without resort to arbitration. If you have any dispute with us, you agree that before taking any formal action, you will contact us at customerservice@exptraining.net and provide a brief, written description of the dispute and your contact information (including your username, if your dispute relates to an account). Except for intellectual property and small claims court claims, the parties agree to use their best efforts to settle any dispute, claim, question, or disagreement directly through consultation with Provider, and good faith negotiations shall be a condition to either party initiating a lawsuit or arbitration.

9.3 Binding Arbitration. If the parties do not reach an agreed-upon solution within a period of thirty (30) days from the time informal dispute resolution is initiated under the Initial Dispute Resolution provision above, then either party may initiate binding arbitration as the sole means to resolve claims, (except as provided in section below) subject to the terms set forth below. Specifically, all claims arising out of or relating to these Terms (including the Terms’ formation, performance, and breach), the parties’ relationship with each other, and/or your use of the Service shall be finally settled by binding arbitration administered by the American Arbitration Association (“AAA”) in accordance with its Consumer Arbitration Rules. The AAA rules will govern payment of all arbitration fees.

9.4 Arbitrator’s Powers. The arbitrator, and not any federal, state, or local court or agency, shall have exclusive authority to resolve all disputes arising out of or relating to the interpretation, applicability, enforceability, or formation of these Terms including but not limited to any claim that all or any part of these Terms is void or voidable, whether a claim is subject to arbitration, or the question of waiver by litigation conduct. The arbitrator shall be empowered to grant whatever relief would be available in a court under law or in equity. The arbitrator’s award shall be written and shall be binding on the parties and may be entered as a judgment in any court of competent jurisdiction.

9.5 Filing a Demand. To start an arbitration, you must do the following: (a) Write a Demand for Arbitration (“Demand”) that (i) briefly explains the dispute, (ii) lists your and PROVIDER’s names and addresses, (iii) specify the amount of money in dispute, if applicable, (iv) identify the requested location for a hearing if an in-person hearing is requested, and (v) state what you want in the dispute; (b) Send one copy of the Demand to

No claim against Provider of any kind under any circumstances will be filed more than one year after End User, knows of, or in the

exercise of reasonable care could know of, such claim or an act or omission of Provider that would give rise to such claim.

the AAA, along with a copy of these Terms and the filing fee required by the AAA; and (c) Send one copy of the Demand for Arbitration to us at

customerservice@exptraining.net.
9.6 The parties understand that, absent this mandatory arbitration provision, they would have the right to sue in court and have a jury

trial. They further understand that, in some instances, the costs of arbitration could exceed the costs of litigation and the right to discovery may be more limited in arbitration than in court. If you are a resident of the United States, arbitration may take place in the county where you reside at the time of filing, unless you and we both agree to another location or telephonic arbitration. For individuals residing outside the United States, arbitration shall be initiated in Broward County, Florida, United States, and you and Provider agree to submit to the personal jurisdiction of any federal or state court in Broward County, Florida, United States, in order to compel arbitration, stay proceedings pending arbitration, or to confirm, modify, vacate, or enter judgment on the award entered by the arbitrator.

9.7 Class Action Waiver. The parties further agree that the arbitration shall be conducted in the party’s respective individual capacities only and not as a class action or other representative action, and the parties expressly waive their right to file a class action or seek relief on a class basis. YOU AND PROVIDER AGREE THAT EACH MAY BRING CLAIMS AGAINST THE OTHER ONLY IN YOUR OR ITS INDIVIDUAL CAPACITY, AND NOT AS A PLAINTIFF OR CLASS MEMBER IN ANY PURPORTED CLASS OR REPRESENTATIVE PROCEEDING. If any court or arbitrator determines that the class action waiver set forth in this paragraph is void or unenforceable for any reason or that an arbitration can proceed on a class basis, then the arbitration provisions set forth above shall be deemed null and void in their entirety and the parties shall be deemed to have not agreed to arbitrate disputes.

9.8 Exception: Litigation of Intellectual Property and Small Claims Court Claims. Notwithstanding the parties’ decision to resolve all disputes through arbitration, either party may bring enforcement actions, validity determinations or claims arising from or relating to theft, piracy or unauthorized use of intellectual property in state or federal court with jurisdiction or in the U.S. Patent and Trademark Office to protect its intellectual property rights (“intellectual property rights” means patents, copyrights, moral rights, trademarks, and trade secrets, but not privacy or publicity rights). Either party may also seek relief in small claims court in Broward County, Florida for disputes or claims within the scope of that court’s jurisdiction.

9.9 30-Day Right to Opt Out. You have the right to opt out and not be bound by the arbitration and class action waiver provisions set forth above by sending written notice of your decision to opt out to customerservice@exptraining.net with the subject line, “ARBITRATION AND CLASS ACTION WAIVER OPT-OUT.” The notice must be sent within the later of 30 days of your first use of the Application or within 30 days of changes to this section being announced on the Application. Otherwise you shall be bound to arbitrate disputes in accordance with the terms of these paragraphs. If you opt out of these arbitration provisions, Provider also will not be bound by them.

9.10 Changes to This Section. Provider will provide thirty (30) days’ notice of any changes to this section by posting on the Services. Amendments will become effective thirty (30) days after they are posted on the Services or sent to you by email. Changes to this section will otherwise apply prospectively only to claims arising after the thirtieth (30th) day. If a court or arbitrator decides that this subsection on “Changes to This Section” is not enforceable or valid, then this subsection shall be severed from the section entitled Mandatory Arbitration and Class Action Waiver, and the court or arbitrator shall apply the first Mandatory Arbitration and Class Action Waiver section in existence after you began using the Services.

9.11 Survival. This Mandatory Arbitration and Class Action Waiver section shall survive any termination of your use of the Services.

10. Miscellaneous.

10.4 Public Announcements. Neither party shall issue or release any announcement, statement, press release, or other publicity or marketing materials relating to this Agreement or, unless expressly permitted under this Agreement, otherwise use the other party’s trademarks, service marks, trade names, logos, domain names, or other indicia of source, association, or sponsorship, in each case, without the prior written consent of the other party, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld, provided, however, that Provider may, without End User’s consent, include End User’s name and other indicia in its lists of Provider’s current or former End Users of Provider in promotional and marketing materials.

10.5 Notices. Any notice, request, consent, claim, demand, waiver, or other communications under this Agreement have legal effect only if in writing and addressed to each party as provided in the relevant End User Agreement (or to such other address or such other person that such party may designate from time to time in accordance with this Section 14.5).

10.6 Interpretation. For purposes of this Agreement: (a) the words “include,” “includes,” and “including” are deemed to be followed by the words “without limitation”; (b) the word “or” is not exclusive; (c) the words “herein,” “hereof,” “hereby,” “hereto,” and “hereunder” refer to this Agreement as a whole; (d) words denoting the singular have a comparable meaning when used in the plural, and vice-versa; and (e) words denoting any gender include all genders. Unless the context otherwise requires, references in this Agreement: (x) to sections, exhibits, schedules, attachments, and appendices mean the sections of, and exhibits, schedules, attachments, and appendices attached to, this Agreement; (y) to an agreement, instrument, or other document means such agreement, instrument, or other document as amended, supplemented, and modified from time to time to the extent permitted by the provisions thereof; and (z) to a statute means such statute as amended from time to time and includes any successor legislation thereto and any regulations promulgated thereunder. The parties intend this Agreement to be construed without regard to any presumption or rule requiring construction or interpretation against the party drafting an instrument or causing any instrument to be drafted. The exhibits, schedules, attachments, and appendices referred to herein are an integral part of this Agreement to the same extent as if they were set forth verbatim herein.

  1. 10.7  Headings. The headings in this Agreement are for reference only and do not affect the interpretation of this Agreement.
  2. 10.8  Entire Agreement. This Agreement, together with the End User Agreement, Application Terms of Use, Acceptable Use Policy, and

Privacy and Data Protection Policy, constitutes the sole and entire agreement of the parties with respect to the subject matter of this Agreement and supersedes all prior and contemporaneous understandings, agreements, representations, and warranties, both written and oral, with respect to such subject matter. In the event of any inconsistency between the statements made in the body of this Agreement, the related exhibits, schedules,

attachments, and appendices (other than an exception expressly set forth as such therein), the following order of precedence governs: (a) first, this Agreement, excluding its exhibits, schedules, attachments, and appendices; (b) second, the exhibits, schedules, attachments, and appendices to this Agreement as of the Effective Date; and (c) third, any other documents incorporated herein by reference.

10.9 Assignment.

For purposes of the preceding sentence, and without limiting its generality, any merger, consolidation, or reorganization involving End User (regardless of whether End User is a surviving or disappearing entity) will be deemed to be a transfer of rights, obligations, or performance under this Agreement for which Provider’s prior written consent is required. No assignment, delegation, or transfer will relieve End User of any of its obligations or performance under this Agreement. Any purported assignment, delegation, or transfer in violation of this Section 16.8 is void. This Agreement is binding upon and inures to the benefit of the parties hereto and their respective successors and permitted assigns.

10.10 Force Majeure.
(a) No Breach or Default. In no event will either party be liable or responsible to the other party, or be deemed to have defaulted under or breached this Agreement, for any failure or delay in fulfilling or performing any term of this Agreement, (except for any obligations to make payments), when and to the extent such failure or delay is caused by any circumstances beyond such party’s reasonable control (a “Force Majeure Event”), including acts of God, flood, fire, earthquake or explosion, war, terrorism, invasion, riot or other civil unrest, embargoes or blockades in effect on or after the date of this Agreement, national or regional emergency, strikes, labor stoppages or slowdowns or other industrial disturbances, passage of Law or any action taken by a governmental or public authority, including imposing an embargo, export or import restriction, quota, or other restriction or prohibition or any complete or partial government shutdown, or national or regional shortage of adequate power or telecommunications or transportation. Either party may terminate this Agreement if a Force Majeure Event affecting the other party continues substantially uninterrupted for a period of 60 days or more.
(b) Affected Party Obligations. In the event of any failure or delay caused by a Force Majeure Event, the affected party shall give prompt written notice to the other party stating the period of time the occurrence is expected to continue and use commercially reasonable efforts to end the failure or delay and minimize the effects of such Force Majeure Event.

10.12 Amendment and Modification; Waiver. No amendment to or modification of or rescission, termination, or discharge of this Agreement is effective unless it is in writing, identified as an amendment to or rescission, termination, or discharge of this Agreement and signed by an authorized representative of each party. No waiver by any party of any of the provisions hereof shall be effective unless explicitly set forth in writing and signed by the party so waiving. Except as otherwise set forth in this Agreement, no failure to exercise, or delay in exercising, any rights, remedy, power, or privilege arising from this Agreement will operate or be construed as a waiver thereof; nor shall any single or partial exercise of any right, remedy, power, or privilege hereunder preclude any other or further exercise thereof or the exercise of any other right, remedy, power, or privilege.

10.13 Severability. If any term or provision of this Agreement is invalid, illegal, or unenforceable in any jurisdiction, such invalidity, illegality, or unenforceability shall not affect any other term or provision of this Agreement or invalidate or render unenforceable such term or provision in any other jurisdiction. Upon such determination that any term or other provision is invalid, illegal, or unenforceable, the parties hereto shall negotiate in good faith to modify this Agreement so as to effect the original intent of the parties as closely as possible in a mutually acceptable manner in order that the transactions contemplated hereby be consummated as originally contemplated to the greatest extent possible.

10.14 Governing Law; Submission to Jurisdiction.

Any legal suit, action, or proceeding arising out of or related to this Agreement or the licenses granted hereunder will be instituted exclusively in the federal courts of the United States or the courts of the State of Florida in each case located in the city of Fort Lauderdale and County of Broward, and each party irrevocably submits to the exclusive jurisdiction of such courts in any such suit, action, or proceeding. Service of process, summons, notice, or other document by mail to such party’s address set forth herein shall be effective service of process for any suit, action, or other proceeding brought in any such court.

10.15 Waiver of Jury Trial. Each party irrevocably and unconditionally waives any right it may have to a trial by jury in respect of any legal action arising out of or relating to this Agreement or the transactions contemplated hereby.

10.16 Equitable Relief. End User acknowledges and agrees that a breach or threatened breach by End User of any of its obligations, would cause Provider irreparable harm for which monetary damages would not be an adequate remedy and that, in the event of such breach or threatened breach, Provider will be entitled to equitable relief, including a restraining order, an injunction, specific performance, and any other relief that may be available from any court, without any requirement to post a bond or other security, or to prove actual damages or that monetary damages are not an adequate remedy. Such remedies are not exclusive and are in addition to all other remedies that may be available at law, in equity, or otherwise.

10.17 Attorneys’ Fees. In the event that any action, suit, or other legal or administrative proceeding is instituted or commenced by either party against the other party arising out of or related to this Agreement, the prevailing party is entitled to recover its actual attorneys’ fees and court costs from the non-prevailing party.
