17. Governing Law; Arbitration; Class Action Waiver. These Terms are exclusively governed by the laws of the United States (including the Federal Arbitration Act) and the State of New York, without regard to principles of conflicts of law, and regardless of your location.a. Binding Arbitration. Except for disputes that qualify for small claims court, as detailed below, all disputes arising out of or related to these terms or any aspect of the relationship between you and Aboon, whether based in contract, tort, statute, fraud, misrepresentation or any other legal theory, including disputes arising out of or relating to the interpretation or application of this arbitration provision, or the enforceability, revocability or validity of this arbitration provision or any portion of this arbitration provision, will be resolved through final and binding arbitration before a neutral arbitrator instead of in a court by a judge or jury. You agree that Aboon and you are each waiving the right to trial by a jury.b. The arbitration will be administered by the American Arbitration Association (AAA) under the following rules: (i) if you entered into this Agreement individually, its Consumer Arbitration Rules (available online at www.adr.org), as amended by these Terms, and (ii) if you entered into this Agreement as an Organization or as a representative of an Organization, by its Commercial Arbitration Rules. The place of arbitration shall be New York City, New York. All disputes shall be resolved by a single arbitrator, selected by the AAA, in accordance with the applicable Consumer Arbitration Rules or Commercial Arbitration Rules. The arbitrator shall conduct hearings, if any, by teleconference or videoconference, rather than by personal appearances, unless the arbitrator determines upon request by you or Aboon that an in-person hearing is appropriate. Any in-person appearances will be held at a location which is reasonably convenient to both parties with due consideration of ability to travel and other pertinent circumstances. If the parties are unable to agree on a location, the arbitrator will decide on the location. The arbitrator’s decision(s) shall be final and binding. The arbitrator shall have authority to award temporary, interim or permanent injunctive relief or relief providing for specific performance of these Terms, but only to the extent necessary to provide relief warranted by the specific claim before the arbitrator. The award rendered by the arbitrator may be confirmed and enforced in any court with jurisdiction.c. Small Claims Court Option For Individuals. If you entered into this agreement individually, you have the choice to submit any dispute to a small claims court, if applicable, instead of having the dispute resolved by arbitration. You can make this choice either before or after the dispute is submitted for resolution by arbitration.d. Class Action Waiver. You agree that any arbitration under these Terms will take place on an individual basis; class arbitrations, private attorney-general actions, class actions, and any other proceeding where someone acts in a representative capacity are not permitted, and you are agreeing to give up the ability to participate in a class action. Combining individual proceedings without the consent of all parties is also not allowed. Disputes regarding the enforceability, revocability or validity of the foregoing class action waiver shall be exclusively resolved by an arbitrator appointed by the AAA, pursuant to the applicable arbitration rules.e. Notwithstanding any of the foregoing: (i) each party may seek and obtain temporary injunctive relief in any court of competent jurisdiction, and seeking such measures shall not be deemed incompatible with the arbitration provision in this Section 17 or a waiver of the right to arbitrate; and (ii) if you are subject to a Services Agreement with Aboon that contains a different arbitration provision, then the terms of such other arbitration provision will govern disputes arising out of or related to these Terms or any aspect of the relationship between you and Aboon, rather than the terms of this Section 17.

19. Copyright Infringement Claims. The U.S. Digital Millennium Copyright Act of 1998 (the “DMCA”) provides recourse for copyright owners who believe that material appearing on the Internet infringes their rights under U.S. copyright law. If you believe in good faith that materials available on the Website infringe your copyright, you (or your agent) may send to Aboon a written notice by mail, e-mail or fax, requesting that Aboon remove such material or block access to it. If you believe in good faith that someone has wrongly filed a notice of copyright infringement against you, the DMCA permits you to send to Aboon a counter-notice. Notices and counter-notices must meet the then-current statutory requirements imposed by the DMCA. See http://www.copyright.gov/ for details. Notices and counter-notices must be sent in writing to Aboon as follows: by mail to Aboon, 228 Park Ave S PMB 40134, New York, NY 10003; or by e-mail to [email protected]. We suggest that you consult your legal advisor before filing a DMCA notice or counter-notice.
20. Miscellaneous. These Terms do not, and shall not be construed to, create any partnership, joint venture, employer-employee, agency or franchisor-franchisee relationship between you and Aboon. If any provision of these Terms is found to be unlawful, void or for any reason unenforceable, that provision will be deemed severable from these Terms and will not affect the validity and enforceability of any remaining provision. You may not assign, transfer or sublicense any or all of your rights or obligations under these Terms without our express prior written consent, and any attempted assignment, transfer or sublicense other than in accordance with this sentence shall be null and void. We may assign, transfer or sublicense any or all of our rights or obligations under these Terms without restriction. No waiver by either party of any breach or default under these Terms will be deemed to be a waiver of any preceding or subsequent breach or default. Any heading, caption or section title contained herein is for convenience only, and in no way defines or explains any section or provision. All terms defined in the singular shall have the same meanings when used in the plural, where appropriate and unless otherwise specified. These Terms, including any terms and conditions incorporated herein, are the entire agreement between you and Aboon relating to the subject matter hereof, and supersede any and all prior or contemporaneous written or oral agreements or understandings between you and Aboon relating to such subject matter. Notices to you (including notices of changes to these Terms) may be made via posting to the Website or by e-mail (including in each case via links), or by regular mail. Without limitation, a printed version of these Terms and of any notice given in electronic form shall be admissible in judicial, arbitral or administrative proceedings based upon or relating to these Terms to the same extent and subject to the same conditions as other business documents and records originally generated and maintained in printed form. Aboon will not be responsible for any failure to fulfill any obligation due to any cause beyond its control.
