WITHOUT LIMITING THE FOREGOING, PORTABL PROVIDES NO WARRANTY AND MAKES NO REPRESENTATION OF ANY KIND THAT: (a) THE INFORMATION PROVIDED IN, OR THAT MAY BE OBTAINED FROM USE OF, THE SERVICES WILL MEET YOUR REQUIREMENTS OR BE CORRECT, ACCURATE, UP-TO-DATE, OR RELIABLE; (b) THE SERVICES BE UNINTERRUPTED OR ERROR-FREE; (c) THE SERVICES WILL BE FREE OF VIRUSES OR OTHER HARMFUL CODE; (d) THE QUALITY OF ANY PRODUCTS, SERVICES, INFORMATION OR OTHER MATERIAL PURCHASED OR OBTAINED BY YOU THROUGH THE SERVICES WILL MEET YOUR EXPECTATIONS; OR (e) ANY ERRORS IN THE TECHNOLOGY WILL BE CORRECTED.

SOME JURISDICTIONS DO NOT ALLOW THE EXCLUSION OF OR LIMITATIONS ON IMPLIED WARRANTIES OR LIMITATIONS ON APPLICABLE STATUTORY RIGHTS OF A CONSUMER. AS SUCH, SOME OR ALL OF THE ABOVE DISCLAIMERS, EXCLUSIONS AND LIMITATIONS MAY NOT APPLY TO YOU.

12. LIMITATION OF LIABILITY

TO THE FULLEST EXTENT PERMITTED UNDER APPLICABLE LAW, IN NO EVENT WILL PORTABL, ITS AFFILIATES, OR THEIR LICENSORS, SERVICE PROVIDERS, OFFICERS, DIRECTORS, EMPLOYEES, AGENTS OR OTHER PERSONNEL BE LIABLE FOR ANY INCIDENTAL, SPECIAL, CONSEQUENTIAL OR PUNITIVE DAMAGES, WHETHER BASED ON WARRANTY, CONTRACT, TORT (INCLUDING NEGLIGENCE), STATUTE OR ANY OTHER LEGAL THEORY, WHETHER OR NOT THE SUCH PARTIES HAVE BEEN INFORMED OF THE POSSIBILITY OF SUCH DAMAGE, WHERE SUCH DAMAGES RESULT FROM: (a) YOUR ACCESS TO OR USE OF, OR INABILITY TO ACCESS OR USE, THE SERVICES, (b) ANY PURCHASE OF A THIRD PARTY PRODUCT OR SERVICE BASED ON INFORMATION CONTAINED IN THE PORTABL SERVICES, or (c) ANY ILLEGAL CONDUCT OF OTHER USERS OF THE SERVICES OR THIRD PARTIES. THE RISK OF INJURY FROM THE FOREGOING RESTS ENTIRELY WITH YOU.

SOME JURISDICTIONS DO NOT ALLOW THE LIMITATION OR EXCLUSION OF LIABILITY IN CERTAIN CIRCUMSTANCES. ACCORDINGLY, SOME OF THE ABOVE LIMITATIONS MAY NOT APPLY TO YOU.

EACH PROVISION OF THIS AGREEMENT THAT PROVIDES FOR A LIMITATION OF LIABILITY, DISCLAIMER OF WARRANTIES, OR EXCLUSION OF DAMAGES IS INTENDED TO AND DOES ALLOCATE THE RISKS BETWEEN THE PARTIES UNDER THIS AGREEMENT. THIS ALLOCATION IS AN ESSENTIAL ELEMENT OF THE BASIS OF THE BARGAIN BETWEEN THE PARTIES. EACH OF THESE PROVISIONS IS SEVERABLE AND INDEPENDENT OF ALL OTHER PROVISIONS OF THIS AGREEMENT. THE LIMITATIONS IN THIS SECTION WILL APPLY EVEN IF ANY LIMITED REMEDY FAILS OF ITS ESSENTIAL PURPOSE.

13. INDEMNIFICATION

You hereby agree to indemnify and hold harmless Portabl and its officers, directors, employees, agents, affiliates, successors, assigns and other personnel from and against any and all losses, damages, liabilities, claims, actions, judgments, settlements, interest, awards, fines costs or and expenses of any kind, including reasonable attorneys’ fees, arising out of or in any way attributable to your use or misuse of the Services or your breach of this Agreement, including but not limited to any data or content that you submit to or make available via the Services.

14. GOVERNING LAW AND DISPUTE RESOLUTION

PLEASE READ THE FOLLOWING SECTION CAREFULLY BECAUSE IT REQUIRES YOU TO ARBITRATE CERTAIN DISPUTES AND CLAIMS WITH US AND LIMITS THE MANNER IN WHICH YOU CAN SEEK RELIEF FROM US.

(a) Governing Law.
You and Portabl agree that this Agreement and the resolution of any disputes arising out of or relating to this Agreement or the use of the Services (collectively, “Disputes”) shall be governed by the laws of the State of New York, without regard to its choice or conflicts of laws provisions or rules.

(b) Informal Dispute Resolution.
Where possible, we want to address any concerns or issues without needing a formal legal case. Before filing any claim against Portabl, you agree to try to resolve the Dispute informally by contacting support@getportabl.com. We will try to resolve the Dispute informally by contacting you through email. If a dispute is not resolved within 15 days after submission, you or Portabl may bring a formal proceeding.

(c) Arbitration.
Any and all Disputes (regardless of basis or theory) shall be resolved by arbitration (except as expressly set forth herein) involving one arbitrator and administered by the American Arbitration Association (“AAA”) or its successor in accordance with its Commercial Arbitration Rules and the Supplementary Procedures for Consumer Related Disputes, or other applicable rules as determined by the arbitrator. Arbitration proceedings shall be conducted in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania. in the English language, and, at the request of either party, result in a written statement of the facts and legal reasoning supporting the decision of the arbitrator(s). The arbitrator may award any individual relief or individual remedies that are permitted by applicable law. Judgement on an award rendered by the arbitrator may be entered in any court having jurisdiction thereof. The arbitration shall be confidential, and neither you nor we may disclose the existence, content or results of any arbitration, except as may be required by law or for purposes of enforcement of the arbitration award.

(d) Costs of Arbitration.
The AAA rules will govern payment of all arbitration fees. If the value of your claim does not exceed $10,000, Portabl will pay for the reasonable filing, administrative, and arbitrator fees associated with the arbitration, unless the arbitrator finds that either the substance of your claim or the relief sought was frivolous or brought for an improper purpose. Each party shall pay its own attorneys’ fees and expenses unless there is a statutory provision that requires the prevailing party to be paid its fees and litigation expenses, and, in such instance, the fees and costs awarded shall be determined by the applicable law.

(e) Opt-Out of Agreement to Arbitrate.
You may decline this agreement to arbitrate by contacting support@getportabl.com within 30 days of first accepting this Agreement. Your communication must state that you decline this arbitration agreement, and it must include your first and last name.

(f) Exceptions to Arbitration.
Either you or Portabl may assert claims, if they qualify, in small claims court in any United States county where you live or work. Either party may bring a lawsuit in any court of competent jurisdiction, solely for injunctive relief to stop unauthorized use or abuse of the Services, or infringement of intellectual property rights, without first engaging in arbitration or the informal dispute-resolution process described above.

(g) Waiver of Class and Collective Actions.
To the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, you and Portabl agree that (i) ANY DISPUTES ARISING OUT OF OR RELATING TO THIS AGREEMENT OR THE SERVICES, THAT ONE PARTY MAY HAVE WITH THE OTHER PARTY, MAY ONLY BE RESOLVED ON AN INDIVIDUAL BASIS, AND SHALL BE NOT BE ASSERTED AS A CLASS ACTION OR COLLECTIVE ACTION, WHETHER IN ARBITRATION, COURT OR ANY OTHER FORUM; AND (ii) THE ARBITRATOR MAY NOT CONSOLIDATE MORE THAN ONE PERSON’S CLAIMS, NOT OTHERWISE PRESIDE OVER ANY FORM OF A REPRESENTATIVE OR CLASS PROCEEDING AND MAY NOT AWARD CLASS-WIDE RELIEF. Disputes shall not be joined or consolidated with any other proceeding that involves any claim or controversy of any other party.

(h) Choice of Forum.
In the event that the agreement to arbitrate is found not to apply to any Dispute, you and Portabl agree that any judicial proceeding (other than small claims actions) will be brought in the federal or state courts of Philadelphia, Pennsylvania. Both you and Portabl consent to venue and personal jurisdiction there. Each party agrees to waive and hereby waives its right to a jury trial.

(i) Limitation of Time to File Claims.
Regardless of any statute or law to the contrary, each party agrees that any claim or cause of action arising out of or related to this Agreement or the Services must be filed within one (1) year after such claim or cause of action arose, or else that claim or cause of action will be barred forever.

15. GENERAL PROVISIONS

(d) Waiver and Severability.
The failure of a party to require performance of any provision by the other party shall not affect the right to require performance at any time thereafter, nor shall a waiver of any breach or default of this Agreement constitute a waiver of any subsequent breach or default or a waiver of the provision itself. In the event that any part of this Agreement is held to be invalid or unenforceable, the unenforceable part shall be given effect to the greatest extent possible and the remaining parts will remain in full force and effect.
