GENERAL
The Platform and this Agreement will be governed by and construed in accordance with the laws of California and the USA. Any action or proceeding arising out of or relating to the Platform and under this Agreement will be instituted in those courts, as applicable, and each party irrevocably submits to the exclusive jurisdiction of such courts in any such action or proceeding. Unless mutually agreed by the Parties in writing, no failure to exercise, or delay in exercising, any right, remedy, power, or privilege arising from this Agreement operates, or may be construed, as a waiver thereof. If any term or provision of this Agreement is invalid, illegal, or unenforceable in any jurisdiction, such invalidity, illegality, or unenforceability shall not affect any other term or provision of this Agreement or invalidate or render unenforceable such term or provision in any other jurisdiction. This Agreement, our Privacy Policy, and our applicable license agreements, constitute the entire Agreement between you and RESONADE regarding the use of and access to the Platform and supersedes all prior and contemporaneous understandings, agreements, representations, and warranties, both written, oral, or inferred from conduct, regarding such subject matter. Nothing herein, expressed, or implied, will constitute or contemplate a partnership, joint venture, employment, or other agency relationship between the Parties. The Parties agree that only RESONADE may assign or transfer this Agreement and its rights and obligations under this Agreement to a third party, at its option and discretion. If any legal proceeding is brought by either Party hereto to enforce or interpret this Agreement, both Parties will be deemed to have jointly drafted this Agreement and neither side will enjoy the benefit of any evidentiary presumptions. The word “include” in this Agreement means ‘including without limitation’. The sections and headers in this Agreement are for context only. Each Party acknowledges to the other they had the opportunity to obtain independent legal advice or have freely chosen not to obtain such advice.
