By accessing the Services, you understand that you may be waiving rights with respect to claims that are at this time unknown or unsuspected, and in accordance with such waiver, you acknowledge that YOU have read and understand, and hereby expressly waive, the benefits of Section 1542 of the Civil Code of California, and any similar law of any state or territory, which provides as follows: “A general release does not extend to claims that the creditor or releasing party does not know or suspect to exist in his or her favor at the time of executing the release and that, if known by him or her, would have materially affected his or her settlement with the debtor or released party.”

SOME JURISDICTIONS DO NOT ALLOW THE LIMITATION OR EXCLUSION OF CERTAIN LIABILITY OR WARRANTIES SO SOME OF THE ABOVE LIMITATIONS MAY NOT APPLY TO YOU. In such jurisdictions, Pyvott’s liability shall be limited to the greatest extent permitted by law.

  1. Termination. These Terms will continue to apply to you until terminated by either you or Pyvott. You may terminate these Terms at any time by ceasing to use and access the Services, deleting your account, and all Services downloads or copies thereof from your browser, systems, devices, and anywhere else you may have stored them. We may terminate your access to the Services and your account and password at any time in the event that you breach these Terms or engage in any conduct that Pyvott, in its sole discretion, considers to be unacceptable or if we ceases to support the Services, which we may do in our sole discretion. Upon termination, all rights granted to you under these Terms will terminate. If you access or use the Services after you or Pyvott has terminated these Terms, you will be bound by the terms of the Services then in effect. Termination will not limit any of Pyvott’s rights or remedies at law or in equity. Without limiting the foregoing, Sections 10, 11.b, 11.g, and 15, 16, 17, 18, 21, 22, 23, 24, and 25 and the following rights and obligations shall survive termination of these Terms: (a) your representations and warranties, indemnification obligations, use restrictions, and license grants to Pyvott; (b) Pyvott’s limitation of liability, disclaimer of warranties, and intellectual property rights; (c) all arbitration provisions; and (d) any other right or obligation in these Terms that, by its nature, should survive termination of these Terms. Notwithstanding the foregoing, you acknowledge and agree that the perpetual license granted by you in relation to User Content is irrevocable and will continue after expiration or termination of these Terms for any reason. If you or we terminate these Terms, or if we suspend your access to the Services, you agree that Pyvott shall have no liability or responsibility to you related thereto.
  1. Dispute Resolution; Governing Law.
    1. Governing Law; Time Limit for Claims. All matters relating to the Services and these Terms, and any dispute or claim arising therefrom or related thereto (in each case, including non-contractual disputes or claims), shall be governed by and construed in accordance with the laws of Utah. The Federal Arbitration Act and federal arbitration law apply to these Terms. ANY CAUSE OF ACTION OR CLAIM YOU MAY HAVE ARISING OUT OF OR RELATING TO THE SUBJECT MATTER OF THESE TERMS MUST BE COMMENCED WITHIN ONE (1) YEAR AFTER THE CAUSE OF ACTION ACCRUES; OTHERWISE, SUCH CAUSE OF ACTION OR CLAIM IS PERMANENTLY BARRED.
    2. Arbitration. The parties shall use their best efforts to settle any dispute, claim, question, or disagreement arising out of or relating to the subject matter of these Terms directly through good-faith negotiations, which shall be a precondition to either party initiating arbitration. If such negotiations do not resolve the dispute, such dispute shall be finally settled by binding arbitration in accordance with this Section and the American Arbitration Association Consumer Arbitration Rules then in effect (“Rules”) by one commercial arbitrator with substantial experience in resolving intellectual property and commercial contract disputes. You may review the American Arbitration Association Consumer Arbitration Rules, which are available online at https://www.adr.org/sites/default/files/Consumer-Rules-Web.pdf. The arbitrator, Pyvott, and you will maintain the confidentiality of any arbitration proceedings, judgments and awards, including, but not limited to, all information gathered, prepared and presented for purposes of the arbitration or related to the dispute(s) therein. You acknowledge that there is no judge or jury in arbitration, and court review of an arbitration award is limited. The arbitrator may conduct hearings, if any, by teleconference or videoconference, rather than by personal appearances, unless the arbitrator determines upon your or our request that an in-person hearing is appropriate. Any in-person appearances will be held at a location which is reasonably convenient to both parties with due consideration of their ability to travel and other pertinent circumstances. If the parties are unable to agree on a location, such determination should be made by the Rules or by the arbitrator. The arbitrator’s decision will follow the terms and conditions of these Terms and will be final and binding. The arbitrator will have authority to award temporary, interim or permanent injunctive relief or relief providing for specific performance of these Terms, but only to the extent necessary to provide relief warranted by the individual claim before the arbitrator. The award rendered by the arbitrator may be confirmed and enforced in any court having jurisdiction thereof.
    3. Class Action Waiver. You agree that any arbitration under these Terms will take place on an individual basis. You acknowledge and agree that (i) class arbitrations and class actions are not permitted, and (ii) you are giving up the ability to participate in a class action. In any case in which (A) a dispute is filed as a class, collective, or representative action, and (B) there is a final judicial determination that all or part of this class action waiver is unenforceable, then the class, collective, or representative action, to that extent, must be litigated in a civil court of competent jurisdiction pursuant to these Terms, but the portion of such class action waiver that is enforceable shall be enforced in arbitration.
    4. Infringement Exception. Notwithstanding the foregoing, both you and Pyvott have the right to pursue injunctive or other equitable relief at any time, from any court of competent jurisdiction, to prevent the actual or threatened infringement, misappropriation, or violation of a party’s copyrights, trademarks, trade secrets, patents, or other intellectual property rights.
    5. Arbitration Opt-Out. You may opt out of binding arbitration within 30 days of the date you first accepted these Terms by emailing legal@pyvott.com. In order to be effective, the opt-out notice must include your full name and address and must clearly indicate your desire to opt out of binding arbitration. By opting out of binding arbitration, you are agreeing to resolve disputes in accordance with Section 18.f.
    6. Venue; Waiver of Jury Trial. In any circumstances where the foregoing arbitrations provisions are deemed unenforceable are inapplicable (such as when you opt out of binding arbitration, pursuant to Section 18.e, above), then disputes or claims arising out of or relating to the subject matter of these Terms shall be subject to the exclusive jurisdiction of the appropriate courts located in the state of Utah. EACH PARTY IRREVOCABLY AND UNCONDITIONALLY: (i) SUBMITS TO THE EXCLUSIVE JURISDICTION OF SUCH COURTS; (ii) WAIVES ANY OBJECTION TO SUCH COURTS BASED ON VENUE OR INCONVENIENCE; AND (iii) WAIVES ANY RIGHT TO TRIAL BY JURY.
  1. Changes to the Terms and the Services. We may revise, update, or otherwise change these Terms at any time by posting updated terms. While Pyvott will provide commercially reasonable notices of any changes to the Terms, you agree to comply and review Pyvott’s Terms on an ongoing basis. Your continued use of the Services constitutes acceptance of and agreement to any such changes. Any revised versions of these Terms supersede all previous versions. Any other amendment to the agreement between the parties must be in writing and signed by both parties. Further, we may change or modify the Services, or any aspect, part or features of the Services, including its content, availability, and access or use specifications from time to time, including imposing new or different conditions of use. If any change to the Terms or the Services are unacceptable to you, your only remedy is to stop using the Services and delete your account.

  1. Should any portion of these Terms for any reason be declared invalid or unenforceable, the invalidity or unenforceability of such portion shall be construed in the most limited way possible and shall not affect the validity of any of the remaining portions and the same shall be deemed in full force and effect as if these Terms had been agreed upon with the invalid portions eliminated.
  1. Pyvott’s waiver of any of the provisions of these Terms will not operate as a waiver of any other provision, regardless of any similarity that may exist between such provisions, nor will a waiver in one instance operate as a waiver in any future event. No waiver will be binding upon Pyvott unless executed in writing by Pyvott.
