THE FOREGOING LIMITATIONS WILL APPLY EVEN IF THE ABOVE STATED REMEDY FAILS ITS ESSENTIAL PURPOSE.

Because some states or jurisdictions do not allow the exclusion or the limitation of liability for consequential or incidental damages, in such states or jurisdiction, the liability of Wizco Parties shall be limited to the fullest extent permitted by law. THEREFORE, THE FOREGOING LIMITATIONS SHALL APPLY TO THE MAXIMUM EXTENT PERMITTED BY LAW, EVEN IF ANY REMEDY FAILS ITS ESSENTIAL PURPOSE.

15. Indemnification

To the greatest extent possible under applicable law, you agree to defend, indemnify and hold harmless Wizco, its licensors and affiliates, contractors, vendors, and content providers from all liabilities, claims and expenses, including attorneys’ fees, that arise from or relate to a breach of these Terms of Use for which you are responsible or in connection with your distribution of any content on or through the Service.

You hereby agree that Wizco would be irreparably damaged if the Terms of Use were not specifically enforced, and therefore you agree that Wizco shall be entitled, without bond, other security, or proof of damages, to appropriate equitable remedies with respect to breaches of these Terms of Use, in addition to such other remedies as Wizco may otherwise have available to it under applicable laws.

You agree that a breach of this License adversely affecting Wizco’s proprietary rights in the software may cause irreparable injury to Wizco for which monetary damages would not be an adequate remedy and Wizco shall be entitled to seek equitable relief in addition to any remedies it may have hereunder or at law.

17. Arbitration, Class Action Waiver and Governing Law

This Section includes an arbitration agreement and an agreement that all claims will be brought only in an individual capacity (and not as a class action or other representative proceeding) (“Arbitration Agreement”). Please read it carefully. You may opt out of the Arbitration Agreement by following the opt out procedure described below.

Informal Process First.You agree that in the event of any dispute between you and Wizco, you will first contact Wizco and make a good faith sustained effort to resolve the dispute before resorting to more formal means of resolution, including without limitation any court action.

Arbitration Agreement. After the informal dispute resolution process any remaining dispute, controversy, or claim (collectively, “Claim”) relating in any way to your use of Wizco’s services and/or products, including the Service, or relating in any way to the communications between you and Wizco or any other user of the Service, will be finally resolved by binding arbitration. This mandatory Arbitration Agreement applies equally to you and Wizco. However, this Arbitration Agreement does not (a) govern any Claim by Wizco for infringement of its intellectual property or access to the Service that is unauthorized or exceeds authorization granted in these Terms or (b) bar you from making use of applicable small claims court procedures in appropriate cases. If you are an individual you may opt out of this Arbitration Agreement within thirty (30) days of the first of the date you access or use this Service by following the procedure described below.

Arbitration is more informal than a lawsuit in court. There is no judge or jury in arbitration. Instead, the dispute is resolved by a neutral arbitrator. Court review of an arbitration award is limited. Except to the extent the parties agree otherwise, arbitrators can award the same damages and relief that a court can award. You agree that the U.S. Federal Arbitration Act governs the interpretation and enforcement of this provision, and that you and Wizco are each waiving the right to a trial by jury or to participate in a class action. This arbitration provision will survive any termination of these Terms.

Any arbitration will be administered by the American Arbitration Association (AAA) under its rules including, if you are an individual, the AAA’s Supplementary Procedures for Consumer-Related Disputes. If you are not an individual or have used the Service on behalf of an entity, the AAA’s Supplementary Procedures for Consumer-Related Disputes will not be used. The AAA’s rules are available at www.adr.org or by calling 1-800-778-7879.

The number of arbitrators will be one. 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. The arbitration will be conducted in the English language. Delawere law will apply. Judgment on the award rendered by the arbitrator may be entered in any court having jurisdiction thereof.

Payment of all filing, administration and arbitrator fees will be governed by the AAA’s rules. If you are an individual and have not accessed or used the Service on behalf of an entity, we will reimburse those fees for claims totaling less than $10,000, unless the arbitrator determines the claims are frivolous, and we will not seek attorneys’ fees and costs in arbitration unless the arbitrator determines the claims are frivolous.

The arbitrator, and not any federal, state, or local court, will have exclusive authority to resolve any dispute relating to the interpretation, applicability, unconscionability, arbitrability, enforceability, or formation of this Arbitration Agreement, including any claim that all or any part of this Arbitration Agreement is void or voidable. However, the preceding sentence will not apply to the “Class Action Waiver” section below.

If you do not want to arbitrate disputes with Wizco and you are an individual, you may opt out of this Arbitration Agreement by sending an email to support@wizco.io within thirty (30) days of the first of the date you access or use the Service.

18. Class Action Waiver

Any Claim must be brought in the respective party’s individual capacity, and not as a plaintiff or class member in any purported class, collective, representative, multiple plaintiff, or similar proceeding (“Class Action”). The parties expressly waive any ability to maintain any Class Action in any forum. If the Claim is subject to arbitration, the arbitrator will not have authority to combine or aggregate similar claims or conduct any Class Action nor make an award to any person or entity not a party to the arbitration. Any claim that all or part of this Class Action Waiver is unenforceable, unconscionable, void, or voidable may be determined only by a court of competent jurisdiction and not by an arbitrator. The parties understand that any right to litigate in court, to have a judge or jury decide their case, or to be a party to a class or representative action, is waived, and that any claims must be decided individually, through arbitration.

If this class action waiver is found to be unenforceable, then the entirety of the Arbitration Agreement, if otherwise effective, will be null and void. The arbitrator may award declaratory or injunctive relief only in favor of the individual party seeking relief and only to the extent necessary to provide relief warranted by that party’s individual claim. If for any reason a claim proceeds in court rather than in arbitration, you and Wizco each waive any right to a jury trial.

Governing Law. These Terms of Use shall be governed by the laws of the Delaware without regard to its conflict of laws provisions, provided that the Federal Arbitration Act shall govern the interpretation and enforcement of the Arbitration Agreement. Unless you and Wizco agree otherwise, in the event that the Arbitration Agreement is found not to apply to you or a particular Claim (except for small claims court actions), either as a result of your decision to opt out of the Arbitration Agreement or as a result of a decision by the arbitrator or a court order, you agree that the Claim will be resolved exclusively by a state or federal court located in Delaware You and Wizco agree to submit to the personal jurisdiction of the courts located within Delaware for the purposes of litigating such Claims. The application of the United Nations Convention on Contracts for the International Sale of Goods is expressly excluded. Your use of the Service may also be subject to other local, state, national, or international laws.

19. General Provisions

Severability and Survival.If any provision of this Agreement is held to be illegal or unenforceable under applicable law, the remainder of the provision shall be amended to achieve as closely as possible the effect of the original term and all other provisions shall continue in full force and effect.
No Waiver.The failure of Wizco to exercise or enforce any right or provision of this Terms of Use will not constitute waiver of such right or provision. Any waiver of any provision of this Terms of Use will be effective only if in a writing signed by Wizco. Any waiver by Wizco shall not be deemed to be a waiver of any preceding or subsequent breach or default.
Entire Agreement.The Terms of Use is the complete and exclusive statement of the agreement between you and Wizco concerning the Service, and the Terms of Use supersedes any prior or contemporaneous agreement, either oral or written, and any other communications with regard thereto between you and Wizco; provided, however that the Terms of Use are in addition to, and do not replace or supplant Wizco’s Privacy Policy.
Headings.The section headings used herein are for reference only and shall not be read to have any legal effect.
