IN THE EVENT THAT SUCH A JURISDICTION OR LAW APPLIES TO THE SUBJECT MATTER OF THESE TERMS, THE FOREGOING DISCLAIMERS WILL APPLY TO THE MAXIMUM EXTENT PERMITTED UNDER APPLICABLE LAW.
Indemnification
By agreeing to these Terms and using Corpora, you agree to defend, indemnify and hold harmless the Company Parties from and against any claims, liabilities, damages, judgments, awards, losses, costs, expenses or fees (including attorneys’ fees and costs) arising out of or relating to: (i) your use of Corpora, except as expressly authorized herein, (ii) your violation of these Terms, (iii) your infringement, misappropriation, or violation of any rights of any third party, including any claim that your actions caused damage to a third party, (iv) your violation of applicable laws, rules, or regulations, and/or (v) your negligence or willful misconduct.

You hereby agree that (i) you will comply with all applicable sanctions and export control laws, and (ii) you are solely responsible for ensuring that Corpora is accessed and/or used only in accordance with all applicable sanctions and export control laws.
Governing Law
These Terms are governed by the laws of the State of California, United States of America, without reference to its principles of conflict of laws. You agree that the United Nations Convention on Contracts for the International Sale of Goods will not apply to the interpretation or construction of these Terms. Corpora may not be used or accessed from or in any jurisdiction that does not give effect to all provisions of these Terms, including without limitation this paragraph.
Arbitration, Jurisdiction, and Class Action Waiver
Binding Arbitration. In the event the parties hereto are not able to resolve any dispute between them arising out of or concerning these Terms, whether arising in contract, tort, or any other legal theory, then such dispute shall be resolved exclusively through final, binding, and confidential arbitration pursuant to the Federal Arbitration Act, conducted by a single neutral arbitrator and administered under the Commercial Arbitration Rules of the American Arbitration Association. The exclusive site of such arbitration shall be in Los Angeles County, California. The arbitrator’s award shall be final, and judgment may be entered upon it in any court having jurisdiction. The prevailing party shall be entitled to recover its costs and reasonable attorneys’ fees. The entire dispute, including the scope and enforceability of this arbitration provision, shall be determined by the arbitrator. Any judgment on the award rendered by the arbitrator may be entered in any court of competent jurisdiction. This arbitration provision shall survive the termination of these Terms for any reason.
Notwithstanding the foregoing, Company may: (i) bring a claim for injunctive relief or other equitable relief against your violation of these Terms in any court of competent jurisdiction; or (ii) bring a suit or other legal proceeding to enforce these Terms in a small claims court of the State of California having jurisdiction over the applicable claim(s); in either case without being required to observe the arbitration procedures of this section.
No Judge or Jury. There is no judge or jury in arbitration, and court review of an arbitration award is limited. However, an arbitrator can award on an individual basis the same damages and relief as a court (including injunctive and declaratory relief or statutory damages), and must follow these Terms as a court would.
Individual Basis and Waiver of Trial by Jury. To the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, you and Company each agree that any dispute resolution proceeding will be conducted only on an individual basis and not in a class, consolidated, or representative action. If for any reason a claim proceeds in court rather than in arbitration, you acknowledge and agree that any controversy that may arise under these Terms is likely to involve complicated and difficult issues and, therefore, you and we irrevocably and unconditionally waive any right you or we may have to a trial by jury in respect of any legal action arising out of or relating to these Terms. As a result, PROCEEDINGS TO RESOLVE OR LITIGATE A DISPUTE IN ANY FORUM WILL BE CONDUCTED ONLY ON AN INDIVIDUAL BASIS.
Invalidity. If a court of competent jurisdiction finds the present arbitration provisions invalid or inapplicable, or otherwise in the case of a dispute not subject to arbitration, any claim, suit, or other proceeding arising under or in connection with these Terms shall be brought exclusively before the state and federal courts sitting in the County of Los Angeles, State of California and you consent to the exclusive jurisdiction of such courts for the final resolution thereof.
Opting Out. If you do not want to arbitrate disputes with Company and you acting in your capacity as an individual (as opposed to acting on behalf of an entity), you may opt out of this arbitration agreement by sending a written notice of your decision to opt out to the following address: 8605 Santa Monica Blvd., Suite 11005, West Hollywood, CA 90069, United States, postmarked within thirty (30) days of first accessing or using Corpora or the Site. You must include (i) your name and residence address, (ii) the email address and/or telephone number associated with your account, and (iii) a clear statement that you want to opt out of these Terms’ arbitration agreement.
Limitation on Time to File Claims
ANY CAUSE OF ACTION OR CLAIM YOU MAY HAVE ARISING OUT OF OR RELATING TO THESE TERMS OR CORPORA MUST BE COMMENCED WITHIN ONE (1) YEAR AFTER THE CAUSE OF ACTION ACCRUES, OTHERWISE, SUCH CAUSE OF ACTION OR CLAIM IS PERMANENTLY BARRED.
Waiver and Severability
No waiver by Company of any term or condition set forth in these Terms shall be deemed a further or continuing waiver of such term or condition or a waiver of any other term or condition, and any failure of Company to assert a right or provision under these Terms shall not constitute a waiver of such right or provision. If any provision of these Terms is held by a court or other tribunal of competent jurisdiction to be invalid, illegal or unenforceable for any reason, such provision shall be eliminated or limited to the minimum extent such that the remaining provisions of the Terms will continue in full force and effect; provided that the ability of either party to obtain substantially the bargained-for performance of the other will not have thereby been impaired.
Entire Agreement
The Terms of Service and the Privacy Policy (and, where applicable, the SaaS Services Agreement) constitute the sole and entire agreement between you and Corpora, Inc. with respect to the subject matter hereof and supersede all prior and contemporaneous understandings, agreements, representations and warranties, both written and oral, regarding the same. Your use of and access to Company’s pages on social media platforms may also be subject to the respective terms of use and privacy policy of such platforms.
Injunctive Relief
You agree that a breach of these Terms will cause irreparable injury to Company for which monetary damages would not be an adequate remedy and Company shall be entitled to equitable relief in addition to any remedies it may have hereunder or at law without a bond, other security, or proof of damages.
Miscellaneous
These Terms will inure to the benefit of and will be binding upon each party’s successors and assigns. These Terms and the licenses granted hereunder may be assigned by Company without your consent but may not be assigned by you without the prior express written consent of Company, which may be withheld at the Company’s sole and absolute discretion. Any attempt by you to assign these Terms without the written consent of Company shall be null and void. The relationship between you and Company under these Terms is that of independent contractors, and nothing herein or in your access and use of Corpora shall be construed as creating any joint venture, partnership, employment, or agency relationship. The headings and captions contained herein will not be considered to be part of the Terms but are for convenience only.
