Governing Law; Venue and Jurisdiction.

By visiting or using the Site, you agree that the laws of the State of Oklahoma, without regard to principles of conflicts of laws, will govern these Terms of Use and any dispute of any sort that might arise between you and the Company or any of our affiliates. With respect to any disputes or claims not subject to arbitration (as set forth below), you agree not to commence or prosecute any action in connection therewith other than in the state and federal courts of Oklahoma, 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 of Oklahoma.

 
Arbitration.

Disputes between you and Company regarding the Site and our services should be reported to [email protected]. We will attempt to resolve any disputes you have with us. We are not responsible for resolving any disputes between you and members regarding services or transactions. Any claim or controversy arising out of or relating to your use of this Site, to the goods or services provided through the Company, this Agreement, or to any acts or omissions for which you may contend Company is liable, including but not limited to any claim or controversy as to arbitrability (“Dispute”), shall be finally, and exclusively, settled by arbitration. The arbitration shall be held before one arbitrator under the commercial arbitration rules of the American Arbitration Association (“AAA”) in force at that time. The arbitration shall be conducted in Oklahoma City, Oklahoma. The arbitrator shall be selected pursuant to the AAA rules. Should no AAA rule regarding the selection of an arbitrator be in effect, the party raising such Dispute shall select an arbitrator from a panel of arbitrators acceptable to Company. In any arbitration, the parties will split the cost of the filing fee, plus the costs associated with the first day of arbitration, with the remaining costs of arbitration paid by the non-prevailing party. To begin the arbitration process, a party must make a written demand therefore.

Any judgment upon an award rendered by the arbitrators may be entered in any court of competent jurisdiction in Oklahoma City, Oklahoma. The arbitrators shall not have the power to award damages in connection with any Dispute in excess of actual compensatory damages and shall not multiply actual damages or award consequential, punitive or exemplary damages, and each party irrevocably waives any claim thereto. The agreement to arbitrate shall not be construed as an agreement to the joinder or consolidation of an arbitration under this Agreement with an arbitration of disputes or claims of any non-party, regardless of the nature of the issues or disputes involved.

THIS AGREEMENT PROVIDES THAT ALL DISPUTES BETWEEN YOU AND COMPANY WILL BE RESOLVED BY BINDING ARBITRATION. YOU THUS GIVE UP YOUR RIGHT TO GO TO COURT TO ASSERT OR DEFEND YOUR RIGHTS. YOU ALSO GIVE UP YOUR RIGHT TO PARTICIPATE IN OR BRING CLASS ACTIONS. YOUR RIGHTS WILL BE DETERMINED BY NEUTRAL ARBITRATORS AND NOT A JUDGE OR JURY. You are entitled to a fair hearing, but the arbitration procedures are simpler and more limited than rules applicable in court. Arbitrator decisions are enforceable as any court order and are subject to very limited review by a court. By using Company’s goods and services, you consent to these restrictions.

Notwithstanding the above, Company has a right to elect to not pursue arbitration to the extent necessary to enforce its intellectual property rights that may have been
violated or threatened to be infringed upon, and the parties acknowledge that, under such circumstances, arbitration is not an adequate remedy at law and that injunctive or other appropriate relief may be sought.

Additionally, should a Dispute arise and should the arbitration provisions herein become inapplicable or unenforceable, or in any instance of any lawsuit between you and Company, the parties agree that jurisdiction over and venue of any suit shall be exclusively in the state and federal courts sitting in Oklahoma City, Oklahoma (as set forth above). If either party employs attorneys to enforce any right in connection with any Dispute or lawsuit, the prevailing party shall be entitled to recover reasonable attorneys’ fees.

 
Indemnity.

You agree to indemnify and hold Company, its subsidiaries and affiliates, and each of their directors, officers, agents, contractors, partners and employees, harmless from and against any loss, liability, claim, demand, damages, costs and expenses, including reasonable attorney’s fees, arising out of or in connection with any Content, any Third Party content, Applications, Software of other content you post through our Site, your use of the Site, your conduct in connection with the Site or with other who use our Site, or any violation of this Agreement or of any law or the rights of any third party.

 
Submissions.

You acknowledge and agree that any questions, comments, suggestions, ideas, feedback or other information about the Site (“Submissions”), provided by you to Company are non-confidential and shall become the sole property of Company. Company shall own exclusive rights, including all intellectual property rights, and shall be entitled to the unrestricted use and dissemination of these Submissions for any purpose, commercial or otherwise, without acknowledgement or compensation to you.

 
Other.

These Terms of Use constitute the entire agreement between you and Company regarding the use of the Site, superseding any prior agreements between you and Company relating to your use of the Site. The failure of Company to exercise or enforce any right or provision of these Terms of Use shall not constitute a waiver of such right or provision in that or any other instance. If any provision of this Agreement is held invalid, the remainder of this Agreement shall continue in full force and effect. If any provision of these Terms of Use shall be deemed unlawful, void or for any reason unenforceable, then that provision shall be deemed severable from these Terms of Use and shall not affect the validity and enforceability of any remaining provisions.
