Notwithstanding the termination, for any or no reason, of your Membership, the agreement formed between the Parties by these Terms, and/ or any other rights you may have to access or use the Services, you acknowledge and agree that Sections 2.2, 8, 11, 13.2, 14, 15, 17 and 18, as well as any other terms that by their nature are intended to survive the termination of your Membership, the agreement formed between the Parties by these Terms and/or any other rights you may have to access or use the Services, shall survive such termination. 

14. INDEMNIFICATION. 

You shall indemnify, defend and hold harmless the Company and its Personnel (each such Person, an “Indemnitee”) from and against any and all Claims arising from, related to or otherwise occurring in connection with any actual or alleged (a) violation of these Terms by you, (b) a violation, infringement or misappropriation of any third party’s Intellectual Property Rights, proprietary rights, privacy or personality rights or other rights by you, or (c) gross negligence or willful misconduct by you.

The Company reserves the right to assume the exclusive defense and control (at your sole expense) of any matter that is subject to indemnification under this Section. In such case, you agree to cooperate (at your sole expense) with any reasonable requests assisting our defense of such matter. 

15. DISCLAIMERS; LIMITATIONS OF LIABILITY.

15.1. Disclaimer of Warranties. THE COMPANY AND ITS PERSONNEL MAKE NO REPRESENTATIONS OR WARRANTIES ABOUT THE SUITABILITY, RELIABILITY, AVAILABILITY, TIMELINESS, SECURITY, ERROR-FREE FUNCTIONING, VIRUS-FREE STATUS OR ACCURACY OF THE SERVICES, INCLUDING ANY EVENT, THE PLATFORM, THE COMPANY MATERIALS, OR ANY COMPONENT, FEATURE OR PORTION THEREOF OR ANY INFORMATION OR DATA MADE AVAILABLE FROM ANY OF THEM FOR ANY PURPOSE. TO THE FULLEST EXTENT PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE LAW, THE SERVICES, ANY PORTION THEREOF, AND ANY INFORMATION, DATA OR MATERIALS (INCLUDING BUT NOT LIMITED TO THE COMPANY MATERIALS) MADE AVAILABLE FROM, ON OR THROUGH THE SERVICES ARE PROVIDED “AS IS” AND “AS AVAILABLE” WITHOUT WARRANTY OR CONDITION OF ANY KIND. THE COMPANY DISCLAIMS ALL WARRANTIES AND CONDITIONS OF ANY KIND, WHETHER EXPRESS, IMPLIED OR STATUTORY, WITH REGARD TO THE SERVICES, INCLUDING ALL EVENTS, THE PLATFORM, AND THE COMPANY MATERIALS, INCLUDING ALL IMPLIED WARRANTIES OR CONDITIONS OF MERCHANTABILITY, FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE, TITLE AND NON- INFRINGEMENT. TO THE EXTENT THAT THE COMPANY MAY NOT AS A MATTER OF APPLICABLE LAW DISCLAIM ANY IMPLIED WARRANTY, THE SCOPE AND DURATION OF SUCH WARRANTY WILL BE THE MINIMUM PERMITTED UNDER SUCH LAW. 

15.2. Limitation of Liability. TO THE FULLEST EXTENT PERMITTED BY LAW, IN NO EVENT SHALL THE COMPANY OR ANY OF ITS PERSONNEL BE LIABLE FOR ANY INDIRECT, INCIDENTAL, SPECIAL, PUNITIVE, EXEMPLARY OR CONSEQUENTIAL DAMAGES, ARISING FROM YOUR ACCESS TO OR USE OF THE SERVICES OR ANY PART THEREOF, INCLUDING DAMAGES FOR LOST PROFITS, LOST DATA, COMPUTER FAILURE, OR THE VIOLATION OF YOUR RIGHTS BY ANY THIRD PARTY, EVEN IF YOU HAVE BEEN ADVISED OF THE POSSIBILITY THEREOF AND REGARDLESS OF THE LEGAL OR EQUITABLE THEORY UPON WHICH THE CLAIM IS BASED. IN THE EVENT THAT THE COMPANY OR ANY OF ITS PERSONNEL ARE DETERMINED TO HAVE ANY LIABILITY HEREUNDER, THE PARTIES AGREE THAT THE AGGREGATE LIABILITY OF THE COMPANY OR ITS PERSONNEL WILL BE LIMITED TO THE LESSER OF TEN THOUSAND U.S. DOLLARS OR THE TOTAL AMOUNT YOU HAVE ACTUALLY PAID TO THE COMPANY (FOR EXAMPLE, YOUR MEMBERSHIP FEES) IN THE TWELVE-MONTH PERIOD PRECEDING THE EVENT GIVING RISE TO A CLAIM. YOU UNDERSTAND AND AGREE THAT ABSENT YOUR AGREEMENT TO THIS LIMITATION OF LIABILITY, THE COMPANY WOULD NOT PROVIDE YOU WITH A MEMBERSHIP OR MAKE AVAILABLE ANY OF THE SERVICES TO YOU.

IN SUCH JURISDICTIONS, THE LIABILITY OF THE COMPANY AND ITS PERSONNEL SHALL BE LIMITED TO THE GREATEST EXTENT PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE LAW AND NOTHING IN THESE TERMS SHALL AFFECT ANY LEGAL RIGHTS AND REMEDIES YOU HAVE UNDER ANY LOCAL LAW. 

16. AMENDMENTS AND UPDATES. 

These Terms may be amended, modified, updated or terminated at any time by the Company, provided that the Company notifies you in advance of any material amendment, modification or update by posting an amended version of the Terms through the Platform (and the date of such posting shall be deemed the date of notification) or by notifying you of such change(s) in accordance with the notification provision included in these Terms. Any such amendment, modification or update shall go into effect on the tenth (10th) business day following the date of such notification (a “Terms Amendment Date”). Any use or accessing of the Services or any part thereof on or following the applicable Terms Amendment Date, except solely to the extent that may be required by you to terminate your Membership, shall be deemed to constitute your acceptance of such amendment, modification or update to these Terms. 

17. MISCELLANEOUS.

17.1. Entire Agreement and Severability. Unless you and the Company expressly agree otherwise in writing, these Terms, including any other terms or policies incorporated herein by reference, constitute the entire agreement between you and the Company with respect to the subject matter hereof and any transactions contemplated herein and supersedes all prior or contemporaneous communications and proposals (whether oral, written or electronic) between you and the Company with respect to the same. In the event of a conflict between any terms or policies posted on the Services or incorporated herein by reference and these Terms, these Terms will control. If any provision of these Terms is found to be unenforceable or invalid by a court or arbitrator, that provision will be limited or eliminated to the minimum extent necessary so that these Terms will otherwise remain in full force and effect and enforceable. 

17.2. Amendment and Modification; Waiver. No waiver by a Party of any of these Terms shall be effective unless explicitly set forth in writing and signed by the Party so waiving. Except as otherwise set forth in these Terms, no failure to exercise, or delay in exercising, any rights, remedy, power or privilege arising from these Terms shall 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. 

17.3. Assignment. Neither your Membership, any other rights you have to access or use any of the Services, your agreement with the Company as constituted by these Terms or any of your obligations hereunder may be assigned, sublicensed or delegated, in whole or in part, by you without the Company’s prior written consent. The Company may assign, sublicense, transfer or delegate any of its rights and obligations herein without your consent. These Terms are binding upon and will inure to the benefit of both Parties and their respective successors, heirs, executors, administrators, personal representatives, and permitted assigns. Any purported assignment, delegation or transfer in violation of this Section is null and void. 

17.4. Relationship of the Parties. The relationship of the Parties is that of an independent contractor, and no agency, partnership, joint venture, or employment is created as a result of these Terms, and neither Party has any authority of any kind to bind the other Party in any respect. 

17.5. Third-party Beneficiaries. The Parties agree that any Event Releasee and any Authorized Party shall be a third-party beneficiary of Section 4.3 and any Indemnitee shall be a third-party beneficiary of Section 14. Otherwise, these Terms are for the sole benefit of the Parties and their respective permitted successors and permitted assigns and nothing herein, express or implied, is intended to or shall confer upon any other Person any legal or equitable right, benefit or remedy of any nature whatsoever under or by reason of these Terms. 

17.6. Governing Law. These Terms, the rights, authorizations, and licenses granted hereunder or any of the transactions contemplated herein, any access or use of any of the Services by you or for which you shall be responsible for as stated herein shall be governed by and construed in accordance with the internal laws of the State of Texas without giving effect to any choice or conflict of law provision or rule that would require or permit the application of the laws of any jurisdiction other than those of the State of Texas. 

17.7. ARBITRATION CLAUSE & CLASS ACTION WAIVER. 

17.7.1. YOU AGREE THAT ALL DISPUTES BETWEEN YOU AND THE COMPANY (WHETHER OR NOT SUCH DISPUTE INVOLVES A THIRD PARTY) WITH REGARD TO YOUR RELATIONSHIP WITH THE COMPANY, INCLUDING WITHOUT LIMITATION DISPUTES RELATED TO THESE TERMS, THE RIGHTS, AUTHORIZATIONS, AND LICENSES GRANTED HEREUNDER OR ANY OF THE TRANSACTIONS CONTEMPLATED HEREIN, ANY ACCESS OR USE OF THE SERVICES, INCLUDING THE PLATFORM, ANY EVENTS, AND THE COMPANY MATERIALS, BY YOU OR FOR WHICH YOU SHALL BE RESPONSIBLE AS STATED HEREIN, WILL BE RESOLVED BY BINDING, INDIVIDUAL ARBITRATION UNDER THE AMERICAN ARBITRATION ASSOCIATION’S RULES FOR ARBITRATION OF CONSUMER-RELATED DISPUTES AND YOU AND THE COMPANY HEREBY EXPRESSLY WAIVE TRIAL BY JURY; PROVIDED, HOWEVER, THAT TO THE EXTENT THAT YOU HAVE IN ANY MANNER VIOLATED OR THREATENED TO VIOLATE THE COMPANY’S INTELLECTUAL PROPERTY RIGHTS, THE COMPANY MAY SEEK INJUNCTIVE OR OTHER APPROPRIATE RELIEF IN ANY STATE OR FEDERAL COURT IN THE STATE OF TEXAS. DISCOVERY AND RIGHTS TO APPEAL IN ARBITRATION ARE GENERALLY MORE LIMITED THAN IN A LAWSUIT, AND OTHER RIGHTS THAT YOU AND THE COMPANY WOULD HAVE IN COURT MAY NOT BE AVAILABLE IN ARBITRATION. 

17.7.2. As an alternative, you may bring your Claim in your local “small claims” court, if permitted by that small claims court’s rules and if within such court’s jurisdiction, unless such action is transferred, removed or appealed to a different court. You may bring Claims only on your own behalf. Neither you nor the Company will participate in a class action or class-wide arbitration for any Claims covered by this agreement to arbitrate. 

17.7.3. YOU AGREE THAT YOU ARE HEREBY GIVING UP YOUR RIGHT TO PARTICIPATE AS A CLASS REPRESENTATIVE OR CLASS MEMBER ON ANY CLASS CLAIM YOU MAY HAVE AGAINST THE COMPANY INCLUDING ANY RIGHT TO CLASS ARBITRATION OR ANY CONSOLIDATION OF INDIVIDUAL ARBITRATIONS. You also agree not to participate in Claims brought in a private attorney general or representative capacity, or consolidated Claims involving another Person’s Membership, the Services (including their access to or use of the Services or any part thereof) or any other matter related to the Company if we are a party to the proceeding. This dispute resolution provision will be governed by the Federal Arbitration Act and not by any state law concerning arbitration. In the event the American Arbitration Association is unwilling or unable to set a hearing date within one hundred and sixty (160) days of filing the case, then either we or you can elect to have the arbitration administered instead by the Judicial Arbitration and Mediation Services. Judgment on the award rendered by the arbitrator may be entered in any court having competent jurisdiction. Any provision of Applicable Law notwithstanding, the arbitrator will not have the authority to award damages, remedies or awards that conflict with these Terms. You agree that regardless of any Applicable Law to the contrary, any Claim arising out of, related to or connected with your Membership or your access to or use of the Services or any component thereof (including any matters related to your Membership Fees) or these Terms must be filed within two (2) years after such Claim arose or be forever banned. 

17.7.4. If the prohibition against class actions and other Claims brought on behalf of third parties contained above is found to be unenforceable, then all of the preceding language in this Section 17.7 will be null and void. This agreement to arbitration will survive the termination of your relationship with us. 

17.8. Equitable Relief. You acknowledge and agree that a breach or threatened breach by you of the terms and conditions set forth in Sections 2.3 or 11 might cause the Company irreparable harm for which monetary damages might not be an adequate remedy and agrees that, in the event of such breach or threatened breach, the Company 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 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 to the Company at law, in equity or otherwise. 

17.9. Headings; Construction. Any section, subsection, and paragraph headings in these Terms are for convenience only and shall not affect their interpretation. 

17.10. Notices.
