Our liability to you, whether arising in contract, tort, strict liability or otherwise, will be limited to and will not exceed (in the aggregate) the total fees paid by you to us during the six (6) months immediately prior to the time such claim arose. If you have not paid anything to us during that period, you agree that your remedy will be limited to ceasing to use the Service and terminating your Account.
You hereby agree to defend, indemnify and hold Bloved and its owners, officers, directors, employees and agents harmless from and against any claim, liability, loss, injury, damage, cost or expense (including reasonable attorneys' fees) incurred by Bloved or such person arising out of or from your use of the Service or as a result of any violation by you of these Terms of Service. You agree that the provisions in this paragraph will survive any termination of your Account(s) or of the Service.
Equitable Remedies.
You hereby agree that we would be irreparably damaged if the terms of these Terms of Use were not specifically enforced, and therefore you agree that we shall be entitled, without bond, other security, or proof of damages, to appropriate equitable remedies with respect to breaches by you of these Terms of Use, in addition to such other remedies as we may otherwise have available to it under applicable laws.
Arbitration of Disputes. We are always interested in attempting to resolve any disputes you may have with us arising out of or relating to the Site, the Services, this Agreement and the policies of Bloved (a “Dispute”) by amicable and informal means, and we encourage you to contact us to do so. You and Bloved agree, however, that any Disputes not resolved informally will be subject to FINAL AND BINDING ARBITRATION as set forth in this section, and may only be resolved through an individual arbitration governed by the Federal Arbitration Act, to the maximum extent permitted by applicable law. The only exceptions to this agreement to arbitrate Disputes are claims of infringement or misappropriation of Bloved’ intellectual property or proprietary rights, which Bloved may elect to have resolved by means other than arbitration. YOU AND MAGICAL MATCHES AGREE THAT, BY ENTERING INTO THIS AGREEMENT, YOU AND MAGICAL MATCHES ARE EACH WAIVING THE RIGHT TO TRIAL BY JURY.
Arbitration Procedure. If the parties are unable to resolve a Dispute by informal means, the arbitration of Disputes will be administered by the American Arbitration Association (AAA), a non-profit organization not affiliated with Bloved, in accordance with its Commercial Arbitration Rules, and if deemed appropriate by the arbitrator, the Supplementary Procedures for Consumer-Related Disputes. All proceedings shall be conducted in English. Venue for all arbitration proceedings shall be in Santa Clara County, California. In the event an arbitration or litigation is brought by either party, the prevailing party in such litigation shall be entitled to recover from the other party all the costs, attorneys' fees and other expenses incurred by such prevailing party in the proceeding.
Enforcement. Any proceeding to enforce this arbitration agreement or to confirm, enforce, modify or vacate an arbitration award hereunder may be brought in any court of competent jurisdiction. In the event that this arbitration agreement is for any reason held to be unenforceable, any litigation against us may be commenced only in the federal or state courts located in Santa Clara County, California. You hereby irrevocably consent to the jurisdiction of those courts for such purposes.
Class Action. YOU AGREE THAT ANY AND ALL CLAIMS MUST BE BROUGHT IN YOUR INDIVIDUAL CAPACITY, AND NOT AS A PLAINTIFF OR CLASS MEMBER IN ANY PURPORTED CLASS ACTION, COLLECTIVE ACTION, PRIVATE ATTORNEY GENERAL ACTION OR OTHER REPRESENTATIVE PROCEEDING. THIS WAIVER APPLIES TO CLASS ARBITRATION, AND, UNLESS YOU AND MAGICAL MATCHES AGREE OTHERWISE, THE ARBITRATOR MAY NOT CONSOLIDATE MORE THAN ONE PERSON’S CLAIMS IN AN ARBITRATION.
General
These Terms of Use are made in and shall be governed by the laws of the State of California, excluding choice of law principles. If any provision of the Terms of Use is held to be unenforceable, these Terms of Use shall be construed without such provision. The failure by a party to exercise any right hereunder shall not operate as a waiver of such party's right to exercise such right or any other right in the future. These Terms of Use and the Privacy Policy contain the entire agreement between the parties with respect to the subject matter hereof and supersede any prior oral or written agreements.
