      TO THE EXTENT APPLICABLE LAWS PROHIBIT TERMS OF USE AGREEMENTS FROM DISCLAIMING ANY IMPLIED WARRANTY, THE APPLICABLE IMPLIED WARRANTY WILL BE LIMITED TO THE MINIMUM WARRANTY AND WARRANTY PERIOD REQUIRED BY LAW.

    • LIMITATION OF LIABILITY

      TO THE FULLEST EXTENT PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE LAW, IN NO EVENT WILL REMINE OR ITS AFFILIATES, OR ANY OF ITS OR THEIR RESPECTIVE LICENSORS OR SERVICE PROVIDERS, HAVE ANY LIABILITY ARISING FROM OR RELATED TO YOUR USE OF OR INABILITY TO USE THE SERVICES FOR (A) PERSONAL INJURY, PROPERTY DAMAGE, LOST PROFITS, COST OF SUBSTITUTE GOODS OR SERVICES, LOSS OF DATA, LOSS OF GOODWILL, BUSINESS INTERRUPTION, COMPUTER FAILURE OR MALFUNCTION, OR ANY OTHER CONSEQUENTIAL, INCIDENTAL, INDIRECT, EXEMPLARY, SPECIAL, OR PUNITIVE DAMAGERS; OR (B) DIRECT DAMAGES IN AMOUNTS THAT IN THE AGGREGATE EXCEED THE AMOUNT ACTUALLY PAID BY YOU FOR ACCESS TO THE SERVICES.  THESE LIMITATIONS WILL APPLY WHETHER ANY DAMAGES ARISE OUT OF BREACH OF CONTRACT, TORT (INCLUDING NEGLIGENCE), OR OTHERWISE AND REGARDLESS OF WHETHER ANY DAMAGES WERE FORESEEABLE OR REMINE WAS ADVISED OF THE POSSIBILITY OF ANY DAMAGES.

    • FORCE MAJEURE

      Remine will not be liable for any delay or failure in performance of the Services due to an event beyond Remine’s control, without its fault or negligence, and that by its nature could not have been foreseen by Remine or, if it could have been foreseen, was unavoidable.

    • INDEMNIFICATION

      You agree to indemnify, defend, and hold harmless Remine and its officers, directors, employees, agents, affiliates, successors, and assigns from and against any and all losses, damages, liabilities, deficiencies, claims, actions, judgments, settlements, interest, awards, penalties, fines, costs, or expenses of whatever kind (including attorneys’ fees) arising from or relating to your use or misuse of the Service or your breach of this Agreement.

    • ARBITRATION AGREEMENT AND WAIVER OF CLASS REMEDIES

      • Arbitration

        All claims arising out of or relating to this Agreement and the Service will be finally settled by binding arbitration administered by the American Arbitration Association (“AAA”) in accordance with the provisions of the Consumer Arbitration Rules of the AAA, excluding any rules or procedures governing or permitting class actions.  The arbitrator – and not any federal, state, or local court or agency – will have exclusive authority to resolve all disputes arising out of or relating to this Agreement.  The arbitrator will be empowered to grant whatever relief would be available in a court under law or in equity.  The arbitrator’s award will be binding on the Parties and may be entered as a judgment in any court of competent jurisdiction.  The interpretation and enforcement of this Agreement will be subject to the Federal Arbitration Act.

        THE AAA’S RULES GOVERNING THE ARBITRATION MAY BE ACCESSED AT WWW.ADR.ORG OR BY CALLING THE AAA AT (800) 778 7879.  TO THE EXTENT THE FILING FEE FOR THE ARBITRATION EXCEEDS THE COST OF FILING A LAWSUIT, WE WILL PAY THE ADDITIONAL COST.  IF WE ARE REQUIRED TO PAY THE ADDITIONAL COST OF THE FILING FEES, YOU SHOULD SUBMIT A REQUEST FOR PAYMENT OF FEES TO AAA ALONG WITH YOUR FORM FOR INITIATING THE ARBITRATION, AND WE WILL MAKE ARRANGEMENTS TO PAY ALL NECESSARY FEES DIRECTLY TO AAA.  THE ARBITRATION RULES ALSO PERMIT YOU TO RECOVER ATTORNEY’S FEES IN CERTAIN CIRCUMSTANCES.

        THE PARTIES UNDERSTAND THAT, ABSENT THIS MANDATORY PROVISION, THEY WOULD HAVE THE RIGHT TO SUE IN COURT AND HAVE A JURY TRIAL.  THEY FURTHER UNDERSTAND THAT, IN SOME INSTANCES, THE COSTS OF ARBITRATION COULD EXCEED THE COSTS OF LITIGATION AND THE RIGHT TO DISCOVERY MAY BE MORE LIMITED IN ARBITRATION THAN IN COURT.

      • Class Action Waiver

        The Parties further agree that any arbitration will be conducted in their individual capacities only and not as a class action or other representative action, and the Parties expressly waive their right to file a class action or seek relief on a class basis.  If any court or arbitrator determines that the class action waiver set forth in this Section 16(b) is void or unenforceable for any reason or that an arbitration can proceed on a class basis, then the arbitration provision set forth in Section 16(a) above will be deemed null and void in its entirety and the Parties will be deemed to have not agreed to arbitrate disputes.

      • Right to Opt Out

        You have the right to opt out and not be bound by the arbitration and class action waiver provisions in Sections 16(a) and (b) above by sending written notice of your decision to opt out to the following address:  1900 Gallows Rd, Suite 775, Vienna, VA 22182 – Attention:  Arbitration.  The notice must be sent within thirty days of activating your Account, otherwise you will be bound to arbitrate disputes in accordance with the terms set forth above.  If you opt out of these provisions, then Remine also will not be bound by them and may terminate your use of the Service.

      • Exclusive Venue and Applicable Law

        To the extent that the arbitration provisions set forth in Section 16(a) do not apply, the Parties agree that any litigation between them will be filed exclusively in state or federal courts in the Commonwealth of Virginia.  The Parties expressly consent to exclusive jurisdiction in the Commonwealth of Virginia for any litigation.  You agree that federal laws and the laws of the Commonwealth of Virginia, without regard to principles of conflicts of laws, will govern this Agreement and any claim or dispute that has arisen or may arise between you and Remine.

    • CLAIM LIMITATION

      ANY CAUSE OF ACTION OR CLAIM YOU MAY HAVE ARISING OUT OF OR RELATING TO THIS AGREEMENT OR THE SERVICE MUST BE COMMENCED WITHIN ONE YEAR AFTER THE CAUSE OF ACTION ACCRUES.  OTHERWISE, THAT CAUSE OF ACTION IS PERMANENTLY BARRED.

    • SEVERABILITY

      If any provision of this Agreement is illegal or unenforceable under applicable law, the remainder of that provision will be amended to achieve as closely as possible the effect of the original term, and all other provisions of this Agreement will continue in full force and effect.

    • NO WAIVER

      No delay or failure to take action under this Agreement will constitute any waiver by Remine of any provision of this Agreement.

    • ASSIGNMENT

      This Agreement is personal to you and may not be transferred, assigned, or delegated by you to any other person or entity.  Any attempt by you to transfer, assign, or delegate this Agreement will be null and void.

    • ENTIRE AGREEMENT

      This Agreement and Remine’s Privacy Policy constitute the complete and exclusive agreement between Remine and you with respect to their subject matter and they supersede all prior oral or written understandings, communications, or agreements.  There are no third party beneficiaries of this Agreement or Remine’s Privacy Policy.
