Legal Notice for New Jersey Residents
Under the New Jersey Truth-in-Consumer Contract, Warranty and Notice Act (“TCCWNA”), N.J.S.A. 56:12-14 et seq., consumers may not be offered any written contract which includes any provision that violates any clearly established legal right of a consumer, or responsibility of a seller, as established by state or federal law. Consequently, and for the avoidance of doubt, no provision in these Terms shall apply to any consumer in New Jersey if the provision violates any such clearly established legal right or responsibility, including, but not limited to, grounds for redress under or in the event of: (i) our tortious actions (e.g., negligence, failure to exercise a basic standard of care, failure to avoid creating an unreasonable risk of harm); (ii) the New Jersey Products Liability Act, N.J.S.A. 2A:58C-1, et seq. (i.e., the statutorily imposed duty to refrain from manufacturing and selling dangerous products, with the possibility of punitive damages for violations thereof); (iii) the New Jersey Punitive Damages Act, N.J.S.A. 2A:15-5.9, et seq. (i.e., the statutory right to pursue punitive damages in the event of harm caused by actual malice, wanton and willful disregard, reckless indifference); (iv) the New Jersey Uniform Commercial Code (i.e., a comprehensive statutory regime governing the rights and duties of buyers and sellers with respect to contracts for the sale of goods, with the possibility of damages for economic and property harm); and (v) our failure to reasonably protect against harm arising from certain criminal acts of third parties (e.g., computer hacking and identity theft, as regulated by the Federal Trade Commission and the Federal Communications Commission, and as governed by the New Jersey Identity Theft Protection Act, N.J.S.A.56:8-161, et seq., and the New Jersey Consumer Fraud Act, N.J.S.A. 56:8-3, et seq.).

In addition, under the TCCWNA, no consumer contract may state that any of its provisions is or may be void, unenforceable or inapplicable in some jurisdictions without specifying which provisions are or are not void, unenforceable or inapplicable in New Jersey. With respect to these Terms, (i) the provision concerning the exclusion or limitation of certain damages is not applicable to New Jersey residents with respect to punitive damages, loss of data, and loss of or damage to property; (iii) the provision concerning the indemnification by you is not applicable to New Jersey residents unless you were negligent or have breached these Terms; and (iii) the provision concerning limiting our liability for any loss or damage is not applicable to New Jersey residents to the extent we were negligent or have breached our obligation to you.

Waiver
If we fail to insist that you perform any of your obligations under these Terms, or if we do not enforce our rights against you, or if we delay in doing so, that will not mean that we have waived our rights against you and will not mean that you do not have to comply with those obligations. If we do waive a default by you, we will only do so in writing, and that will not mean that we will automatically waive any later default by you.

Changes
We reserve the right at any time to modify these Terms and to impose new or additional terms or conditions on your use of the Access Points. If we make any material change to the Terms, we will post those changes on this, or any other appropriate page, and they will become effective upon the later of 1) the date specified by us, if any, or 2) the posting. By accessing the Access Points after changes are made to the Terms and posted, you agree to be legally bound and to abide by the amended terms. You should visit this page from time-to-time to review the then-current Terms because they are binding on you.

Entire Agreement
These Terms constitute the entire agreement between us regarding or in connection with the Access Points. You agree that you shall have no remedies in respect of any representation or warranty (whether made innocently or negligently) that is not set out in the Terms. You shall have no claim for innocent or negligent misrepresentation based upon any statement in this agreement. Nothing in this clause shall limit or exclude any liability for fraud.

Governing Law & Arbitration; Waiver of Class Action Claims
The Access Points are controlled, operated and administered by the Company from its principal offices in Maryland, USA. These Terms are governed by, and construed and interpreted in accordance with the laws of the State of Connecticut, without reference to its conflict of laws.

You agree that any and all claims, disputes, controversies, actions or proceedings relating to, or arising out of, the creation, production, manufacture, distribution, promotion, marketing, advertising (including oral and written statements), use of or sale of any and all of the Access Points (collectively “Claims”), shall be governed by the internal substantive laws of the State of Connecticut without regard to its conflict of laws principles and that any and all Claims shall be resolved exclusively by final and binding arbitration administered by the American Arbitration Association (“AAA”).

Before commencing any arbitration, you must give us notice of a claim, in writing. We may then attempt to resolve your claim. If the dispute is not resolved within 30 days, you may demand an arbitration pursuant to the terms below.

You agree that: (i) the arbitration shall be conducted before a single arbitrator pursuant to the applicable Rules and Procedures established by the AAA and subject to the Federal Arbitration Act, 9 U.S.C. § 1 et seq.; (ii) the arbitration shall be held telephonically with written submissions, or based on written submissions only (at your option), with the arbitrator’s fee to be paid by us (unless the arbitrator finds that your claims are frivolous, in which case you will pay the arbitrator’s fee), if the amount in controversy is $10,000 or below, or, for amounts in controversy in excess of $10,000 in person at a location determined by the AAA pursuant to the Rules and Procedures of the AAA, with the arbitrator’s fee to be allocated equally between the parties; (iii) the arbitrator shall have the authority to award actual direct damages only with no authority to issue any fines and penalties nor award punitive damages or equitable relief; (iv) THERE SHALL BE NO RIGHT TO LITIGATE YOUR CLAIM IN COURT AND NO RIGHT TO A JURY TRIAL, and (v) your claim shall be arbitrated on an individual basis, and that you shall not have the right to participate in a representative capacity, or as a member of any class of claimants pertaining to any Claim subject to arbitration, and that the arbitrator shall have no authority to consolidate or join the Claims of other persons or parties who may be similarly situated and may only resolve Claims, and render awards between you and us alone. With the exception subpart (v) above, if any part of this arbitration provision is deemed invalid, unenforceable or illegal, or otherwise conflicts with the Rules and Procedures of the AAA, then same shall be stricken and the balance of this arbitration provision shall remain in effect and construed accordingly. If subpart (v) is invalidated, there shall be no right to arbitration of claims on any class or collective basis, but instead any attempt to assert claims on a class or collective basis of any kind must be pursued in a court of competent jurisdiction. For more information on the AAA and its Rules and Procedures, you may visit the AAA website at //www.adr.org.
