MISCELLANEOUS LEGAL TERMS:

1.    Assignment: This Agreement, and any rights and licenses granted hereunder, may not be transferred or assigned by you, but may be assigned by SharePTS without restriction. Any attempted transfer or assignment in violation hereof shall be null and void.

2.    Governing Law. You agree that: (i) the Service shall be deemed solely based in Connecticut; and (ii) the Service shall be deemed a passive one that does not give rise to personal jurisdiction over SharePTS, either specific or general, in jurisdictions other than Connecticut. These Terms shall be governed by the internal substantive laws of the State of Connecticut, without respect to its conflict of laws principles. The application of the United Nations Convention on Contracts for the International Sale of Goods is expressly excluded. We each agree to submit to the personal jurisdiction of a state or federal courts located in New Haven, Connecticut, for any actions for which either party retains the right to seek injunctive or other equitable relief, as further described in the Arbitration provision below.

3.    Arbitration: For any dispute you have with SharePTS, you agree to first contact us at help@SharePTS.co and attempt to resolve the dispute with us informally. In the unlikely event that SharePTS has not been able to resolve a dispute it has with you after attempting to do so informally, we each agree to resolve any claim, dispute, or controversy (excluding claims for injunctive or other equitable relief) arising out of or in connection with or relating to these Terms, or the breach or alleged breach thereof (collectively, “Claims”), by binding arbitration by the American Arbitration Association (“AAA”) under the Commercial Arbitration Rules and Supplementary Procedures for Consumer Related Disputes then in effect for the AAA, except as provided herein. Unless you and SharePTS agree otherwise, the arbitration will be conducted in the county where you reside. Each party will be responsible for paying any AAA filing, administrative and arbitrator fees in accordance with AAA rules. The award rendered by the arbitrator shall include costs of arbitration, reasonable attorneys’ fees and reasonable costs for expert and other witnesses, and any judgment on the award rendered by the arbitrator may be entered in any court of competent jurisdiction. Nothing in this Section shall prevent either party from seeking injunctive or other equitable relief from the courts as necessary to prevent the actual or threatened infringement, misappropriation, or violation of that party’s data security, Intellectual Property Rights, or other proprietary rights. ALL CLAIMS MUST BE BROUGHT IN THE PARTIES’ INDIVIDUAL CAPACITY, AND NOT AS A PLAINTIFF OR CLASS MEMBER IN ANY PURPORTED CLASS OR REPRESENTATIVE PROCEEDING, AND, UNLESS WE AGREE OTHERWISE, THE ARBITRATOR MAY NOT CONSOLIDATE MORE THAN ONE PERSON’S CLAIMS. YOU AGREE THAT, BY ENTERING INTO THIS AGREEMENT, YOU AND SharePTS ARE EACH WAIVING THE RIGHT TO A TRIAL BY JURY OR TO PARTICIPATE IN A CLASS ACTION.

4.    Notification Procedures and changes to the Agreement: SharePTS may provide notifications, whether such notifications are required by law or are for marketing or other business related purposes, to you via email notice, “push” mobile notification, written or hard copy notice, or through posting of such notice on our website, as determined by SharePTS in our sole discretion. SharePTS reserves the right to determine the form and means of providing notifications to our Users, provided that you may opt out of certain means of notification as described in this Agreement. SharePTS may, in its sole discretion, modify or update this Agreement from time to time, and so you should review this page periodically. When we change the Agreement in a material manner, we will update the “last modified” date at the bottom of this page. Your continued use of the Service after any such change constitutes your acceptance of the new Terms of Use. If you do not agree to any of these terms or any future Terms of Use, do not use or access (or continue to access) the Service. SharePTS is not responsible for any automatic filtering you or your network provider may apply to email notifications we send to the email address you provide us.

5.    Waiver by California Residents. If you are a California resident, you waive California Civil Code Section 1542, which says: "A general release does not extend to claims which the creditor does not know or suspect to exist in his or her favor at the time of executing the release, which if known by him or her must have materially affected his or her settlement with the debtor."

6.    Entire Agreement/Severability: This Agreement, together with any amendments and any additional agreements you may enter into with SharePTS in connection with the Service, shall constitute the entire agreement between you and SharePTS concerning the Service. If any provision of this Agreement is deemed invalid by a court of competent jurisdiction, the invalidity of such provision shall not affect the validity of the remaining provisions of this Agreement, which shall remain in full force and effect.

7.    No Waiver: No waiver of any term of this Agreement shall be deemed a further or continuing waiver of such term or any other term, and SharePTS’s failure to assert any right or provision under this Agreement shall not constitute a waiver of such right or provision.
