You may use the Services only in compliance with these Terms, the terms of the Agreement, and all applicable local, state, national, and international laws, rules and regulations, and by accessing or using the Services you agree to be bound by them. Any terms not defined in these Terms shall have the meanings as defined in the Agreement. Should there be any conflict between the terms of these Terms and the Agreement, the Agreement shall Control.

In addition to all the terms and conditions of the Agreement Client and User agree to the following:

Representations, Warranties and Indemnification

Term

The terms of this TOS will be co-terminus with the term of the Agreement.

Provider may suspend or terminate User and/or Client's accounts or cease providing User/Client with all or part of the Services at any time for any reason, including, but not limited to, reasonable belief that: (i) User has violated these Terms or the Terms of the Agreement, (ii) User has created risk or possible legal exposure for Provider, or (iii) the provision of the Services is no longer commercially viable. Provider shall make reasonable efforts to notify User and Client by the email address associated with the account.

Governing Law

These Terms shall be construed according to, and the rights of the parties shall be governed under, the laws of the State of California. Provider, User and Client consent to the exclusive jurisdiction and venue of the state and federal courts in the State of California for the resolution of any disputes or claims arising out of or related to these Terms. Any waiver or failure to enforce any provision of these Terms on one occasion will not be deemed a waiver of any other provision or of such provision on any other occasion. If any provision of these Terms is determined to be unenforceable, such provision will be changed and interpreted to accomplish the objectives of such provision to the greatest extent possible under applicable law and the remaining provisions will continue in full force and effect.
