  1. Third Party Sites and Products. We may include links to third-party sites or services, or information about third-party products or services. You should review the terms of use and privacy policies of all sites and services you link to from or are referred to by our Service. We do not endorse or take responsibility for these third-party offerings. We do not vet or take responsibility for third-party sites, services or products or the postings or communications of other users.
  2. Governing Law/Waiver of Injunctive Relief.
    • This Agreement and all aspects of the Service will be governed by and construed in accordance with the internal laws of the United States and the Commonwealth of Massachusetts governing contracts entered into and to be fully performed in Massachusetts (i.e., without regard to conflict of laws provisions) regardless of your location. With respect to any disputes or claims not subject to informal dispute resolution or arbitration (as set forth below), you agree not to commence or prosecute any action in connection therewith other than in the state or federal courts located in Boston, Massachusetts, and you hereby consent to, and waive all defenses of lack of personal jurisdiction and forum non conveniens with respect to, venue and jurisdiction in the state and federal courts located in Boston, Massachusetts.
    • You acknowledge that the rights granted and obligations made hereunder to COLLEGE GAZETTE are of a unique and irreplaceable nature, the loss of which will irreparably harm COLLEGE GAZETTE and which cannot be replaced by monetary damages alone so that COLLEGE GAZETTE will be entitled to injunctive or other equitable relief (without the obligations of posting any bond or surety) in the event of any breach or anticipatory breach by you. You irrevocably waive all rights to seek injunctive or other equitable relief and agree to limit your claims to claims for monetary damages (if any).
    • To expedite resolution and control the cost of any dispute, controversy or claim related to this Agreement (“Dispute”), you and COLLEGE GAZETTE agree to first attempt to negotiate any Dispute (except those Disputes expressly provided below) informally for at least thirty (30) days before initiating any arbitration or court proceeding. Such informal negotiations commence upon written notice from one person to the other. You will send your notice to College Gazette, Inc., 14 Spring Street, 1st Floor, Waltham, MA 02451, ATTENTION: LEGAL DEPARTMENT.
    • If you and COLLEGE GAZETTE are unable to resolve a Dispute through informal negotiations within 30 days, either you or COLLEGE GAZETTE may elect to have the Dispute (except those Disputes expressly excluded below) finally and exclusively resolved by binding arbitration. Any election to arbitrate by one party will be final and binding on the other. YOU UNDERSTAND THAT ABSENT THIS PROVISION, YOU WOULD HAVE THE RIGHT TO SUE IN COURT AND HAVE A JURY TRIAL. The arbitration will be commenced and conducted under the Streamlined Arbitration Rules and Procedures (the “Rules”) of JAMS, which is available at the JAMS website jamsadr.com. The determination of whether a Dispute is subject to arbitration will be governed by the Federal Arbitration Act and determined by a court rather than an arbitrator. Your arbitration fees and your share of arbitrator compensation will be governed by the Rules. The arbitration may be conducted in person, through the submission of documents, by phone or online. The arbitrator will make a decision in writing, but need not provide a statement of reasons unless requested by a party. The arbitrator must follow applicable law, and any award may be challenged if the arbitrator fails to do so. Except as otherwise provided in this Agreement, you and COLLEGE GAZETTE may litigate in court to compel arbitration, stay proceedings pending arbitration, or to confirm, modify, vacate or enter judgment on the award entered by the arbitrator.
    • You and COLLEGE GAZETTE agree that any arbitration will be limited to the Dispute between COLLEGE GAZETTE and you individually. To the full extent permitted by law, (a) no arbitration will be joined with any other; (b) there is no right or authority for any Dispute to be arbitrated on a class-action basis or to utilize class action procedures; and (c) there is no right or authority for any Dispute to be brought in a purported representative capacity on behalf of the general public or any other persons.
    • You and COLLEGE GAZETTE agree that the following Disputes are not subject to the above provisions concerning informal negotiations and binding arbitration: (a) any Disputes seeking to enforce or protect, or concerning the validity of, any of your or COLLEGE GAZETTE’s intellectual property rights; (b) any Dispute related to, or arising from, allegations of theft, piracy, invasion of privacy or unauthorized use; and (c) any claim for injunctive relief.
  3. Waiver/Severability.
    • The failure of COLLEGE GAZETTE to require or enforce strict performance by you of any provision of this Agreement or to exercise any right under them will not be construed as a waiver or relinquishment of COLLEGE GAZETTE’s right to assert or rely upon any such provision or right in that or any other instance.
    • You and COLLEGE GAZETTE agree that if any portion of this Agreement, except any portion of Section 6, is found illegal or unenforceable, in whole or in part by any court of competent jurisdiction, such provision will, as to such jurisdiction, be ineffective to the extent of such determination of invalidity or unenforceability without affecting the validity or enforceability thereof in any other manner or jurisdiction and without affecting the remaining provisions of this Agreement, which will continue to be in full force and effect. If Section 15.6 is found to be illegal or unenforceable then neither you nor COLLEGE GAZETTE will elect to arbitrate any Dispute falling within that portion of Section 15.6 found to be illegal or unenforceable and such Dispute will be decided by a court of competent jurisdiction within Boston, Massachusetts, and you and COLLEGE GAZETTE agree to submit to the personal jurisdiction of that court.
  4. Miscellaneous. COLLEGE GAZETTE operates and controls the Service from its offices in the United States. COLLEGE GAZETTE makes no representation that the Service is appropriate or available in other locations. The information provided on the Service is not intended for distribution to or use by any person or entity in any jurisdiction or country where such distribution or use would be contrary to law or regulation or which would subject COLLEGE GAZETTE to any registration requirement within such jurisdiction or country. Accordingly, those persons who choose to access the Service from other locations do so on their own initiative and are solely responsible for compliance with local laws, if and to the extent local laws are applicable. This Agreement is effective until terminated by either party. You may terminate this Agreement by destroying all Service-related materials obtained from the Service, COLLEGE GAZETTE or any other website or source. The privileges granted to you under this Agreement, including without limitation access to the Service directly or through Facebook, Twitter, or other online channel, will terminate immediately and automatically without notice from COLLEGE GAZETTE if, in our sole discretion, you fail to comply with any term or provision of this Agreement or for any reason in COLLEGE GAZETTE’s sole discretion. Following the termination of this Agreement, your account(s), or the Service, COLLEGE GAZETTE shall retain all rights to the Submissions pursuant to this Agreement. Neither the course of conduct between the parties nor trade practice will act to modify this Agreement to any party at any time without any notice to you. You may not assign this Agreement without COLLEGE GAZETTE’s prior written consent. This Agreement contains the entire understanding of you and COLLEGE GAZETTE, and supersedes all prior understandings between the parties concerning its subject matter, and cannot be changed or modified by you. The section headings used in this Agreement are for convenience only and will not be given any legal import. Upon COLLEGE GAZETTE’s request, you will furnish COLLEGE GAZETTE any documentation, substantiation or releases necessary to verify your compliance with this Agreement. You agree that this Agreement will not be construed against COLLEGE GAZETTE by virtue of having drafted it. You hereby waive any and all defenses you may have based on the electronic form of this Agreement and the lack of signing by the parties hereto to execute this Agreement.
  5. Statute of Limitations. You and COLLEGE GAZETTE both agree that regardless of any statute or law to the contrary, any claim or cause of action arising out of or related to use of the Service or this Agreement (including the Privacy Policy) must be filed within ONE (1) YEAR after such claim or cause of action arose or will be forever barred.
