You agree that we have no liability

GOVERNING LAW
These Terms of Use and your use of
the Site are governed by and construed in accordance with the laws of the State
of Gujarat applicable to agreements made and to be entirely performed within
the State/Commonwealth of Gujarat, without regard to its conflict of law
principles.
DISPUTE RESOLUTION
Option 1: Any legal action of
whatever nature brought by either you or us (collectively, the
"Parties" and individually, a "Party") shall be commenced
or prosecuted in the state and federal courts located in India County, Gujarat,
and the Parties hereby consent to, and waive all defenses of lack of personal
jurisdiction and forum non conveniens with respect to venue and jurisdiction in
such state and federal courts.
Application of the United Nations
Convention on Contracts for the International Sale of Goods and the Uniform
Computer Information Transaction Act (UCITA) are excluded from these Terms of
Use. In no event shall any claim, action, or proceeding brought by either Party
related in any way to the Site be commenced more than 1 year(s) after the cause
of action arose.
Option 2: Informal Negotiations
To expedite resolution and control
the cost of any dispute, controversy, or claim related to these Terms of Use
(each a "Dispute" and collectively, the "Disputes") brought
by either you or us (individually, a "Party" and collectively, the
"Parties"), the Parties agree to first attempt to negotiate any
Dispute (except those Disputes expressly provided below) informally for at
least 15 days before initiating arbitration. Such informal negotiations
commence upon written notice from one Party to the other Party.
Binding Arbitration
If the Parties are unable to resolve
a Dispute through informal negotiations, the Dispute (except those Disputes
expressly excluded below) will be finally and exclusively resolved by binding
arbitration. YOU UNDERSTAND THAT WITHOUT THIS PROVISION, YOU WOULD HAVE THE
RIGHT TO SUE IN COURT AND HAVE A JURY TRIAL.
The arbitration shall be commenced
and conducted under the Commercial Arbitration Rules of the American
Arbitration Association ("AAA") and, where appropriate, the AAA's
Supplementary Procedures for Consumer Related Disputes ("AAA Consumer
Rules"), both of which are available at the AAA website www.adr.org.
Your arbitration fees and your share
of arbitrator compensation shall be governed by the AAA Consumer Rules and,
where appropriate, limited by the AAA Consumer Rules. If such costs are
determined to by the arbitrator to be excessive, we will pay all arbitration
fees and expenses.
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 either Party. The arbitrator must follow applicable
law, and any award may be challenged if the arbitrator fails to do so.
Except where otherwise required by
the applicable AAA rules or applicable law, the arbitration will take place in
India County, Gujarat. Except as otherwise provided herein, the Parties 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.
If for any reason, a Dispute
proceeds in court rather than arbitration, the Dispute shall be commenced or
prosecuted in the state and federal courts located in India County, Gujarat,
and the Parties hereby consent to, and waive all defenses of lack of personal
jurisdiction, and forum non conveniens with respect to venue and jurisdiction
in such state and federal courts. Application of the United Nations Convention
on Contracts for the International Sale of Goods and the the Uniform Computer
Information Transaction Act (UCITA) are excluded from these Terms of Use.
In no event shall any Dispute
brought by either Party related in any way to the Site be commenced more than 1
year(s) after the cause of action arose. If this provision is found to be
illegal or unenforceable, then neither Party will elect to arbitrate any Dispute
falling within that portion of this provision found to be illegal or
unenforceable and such Dispute shall be decided by a court of competent
jurisdiction within the courts listed for jurisdiction above, and the Parties
agree to submit to the personal jurisdiction of that court.
Option 3: Binding Arbitration
To expedite resolution and control
the cost of any dispute, controversy or claim related to these Terms of Use
