data to the United States, and you expressly consent to have your data transferred to and

These Legal Terms shall remain in full force and effect while you use the Services. WITHOUT
LIMITING ANY OTHER PROVISION OF THESE LEGAL TERMS, WE RESERVE THE RIGHT
TO, IN OUR SOLE DISCRETION AND WITHOUT NOTICE OR LIABILITY, DENY ACCESS TO
AND USE OF THE SERVICES (INCLUDING BLOCKING CERTAIN IP ADDRESSES), TO ANY
PERSON FOR ANY REASON OR FOR NO REASON, INCLUDING WITHOUT LIMITATION
FOR BREACH OF ANY REPRESENTATION, WARRANTY, OR COVENANT CONTAINED IN
THESE LEGAL TERMS OR OF ANY APPLICABLE LAW OR REGULATION. WE MAY TERMINATE YOUR USE OR PARTICIPATION IN THE SERVICES OR DELETE ANY
CONTENT OR INFORMATION THAT YOU POSTED AT ANY TIME, WITHOUT WARNING, IN
OUR SOLE DISCRETION.
If we terminate or suspend your account for any reason, you are prohibited from registering and
creating a new account under your name, a fake or borrowed name, or the name of any third

suspending your account, we reserve the right to take appropriate legal action, including without

These Legal Terms and your use of the Services are governed by and construed in accordance
with the laws of the State of Michigan applicable to agreements made and to be entirely
performed within the State of Michigan, without regard to its conflict of law principles.
To expedite resolution and control the cost of any dispute, controversy, or claim related to
these Legal Terms (each a "Dispute" and collectively, the "Disputes") brought by either you
or us (individually, a "Party" and collectively, the "Parties"), the Parties agree to first attempt
to negotiate any Dispute (except those Disputes expressly provided below) informally for at
least thirty (30) days before initiating arbitration. Such informal negotiations commence
upon written notice from one Party to the other Party.
If the Parties are unable to resolve a Dispute through informal negotiations, the Dispute
(except those Disputes expressly excluded below) will be finally and exclusively resolved by
binding arbitration. YOU UNDERSTAND THAT WITHOUT THIS PROVISION, YOU
WOULD HAVE THE RIGHT TO SUE IN COURT AND HAVE A JURY TRIAL. The arbitration shall be commenced and conducted under the Commercial Arbitration Rules of
the American Arbitration Association ("AAA") and, where appropriate, the AAA’s
Supplementary Procedures for Consumer Related Disputes ("AAA Consumer Rules"), both
of which are available at the American Arbitration Association (AAA) website. Your arbitration
fees and your share of arbitrator compensation shall be governed by the AAA Consumer
Rules and, where appropriate, limited by the AAA Consumer Rules. The arbitration may be
conducted in person, through the submission of documents, by phone, or online. The
arbitrator will make a decision in writing, but need not provide a statement of reasons unless
requested by either Party. The arbitrator must follow applicable law, and any award may be
challenged if the arbitrator fails to do so. Except where otherwise required by the
applicable AAA rules or applicable law, the arbitration will take place
in Washtenaw, Michigan. Except as otherwise provided herein, the Parties may litigate in
court to compel arbitration, stay proceedings pending arbitration, or to confirm, modify,
vacate, or enter judgment on the award entered by the arbitrator.
If for any reason, a Dispute proceeds in court rather than arbitration, the Dispute shall be
commenced or prosecuted in the state and federal courts located in Washtenaw, Michigan,
and the Parties hereby consent to, and waive all defenses of lack of personal jurisdiction,
and forum non convenient with respect to venue and jurisdiction in such state and federal
courts. Application of the United Nations Convention on Contracts for the International Sale
of Goods and the Uniform Computer Information Transaction Act (UCITA) are excluded
from these Legal Terms.
In no event shall any Dispute brought by either Party related in any way to the Services be
commenced more than one (1) years after the cause of action arose. If this provision is
found to be illegal or unenforceable, then neither Party will elect to arbitrate any Dispute
falling within that portion of this provision found to be illegal or unenforceable and such
Dispute shall be decided by a court of competent jurisdiction within the courts listed for
jurisdiction above, and the Parties agree to submit to the personal jurisdiction of that court.
The Parties agree that any arbitration shall be limited to the Dispute between the Parties individually.
To the full extent permitted by law, (a) no arbitration shall be joined with any other proceeding; (b)
there is no right or authority for any Dispute to be arbitrated on a class-action basis or to utilize class
action procedures; and (c) there is no right or authority for any Dispute to be brought in a purported
representative capacity on behalf of the general public or any other persons.
The Parties agree that the following Disputes are not subject to the above provisions concerning
informal negotiations binding arbitration: (a) any Disputes seeking to enforce or protect, or
concerning the validity of, any of the intellectual property rights of a Party; (b) any Dispute related to,
or arising from, allegations of theft, piracy, invasion of privacy, or unauthorized use; and (c) any
claim for injunctive relief. If this provision is found to be illegal or unenforceable, then neither Party
will elect to arbitrate any Dispute falling within that portion of this provision found to be illegal or
unenforceable and such Dispute shall be decided by a court of competent jurisdiction within the
courts listed for jurisdiction above, and the Parties agree to submit to the personal jurisdiction of that
court.
There may be information on the Services that contains typographical errors, inaccuracies, or
omissions, including descriptions, pricing, availability, and various other information. We reserve the
