The arbitration shall be conducted in English and the arbitrator's decision shall be final and binding.

Class Action Waiver: You agree that any dispute resolution proceedings will be conducted only on an individual basis and not in a class, consolidated, or representative action. If this class action waiver is found to be unenforceable, then the entirety of this dispute resolution provision shall be null and void.

Nothing in this section shall prevent either party from seeking injunctive or other equitable relief in court for matters related to intellectual property or unauthorized access to the Service.

15. Governing Law

These Terms shall be governed by and construed in accordance with the laws of the State of Texas, without regard to its conflict of law provisions.

Your continued use of the Service after any changes constitutes acceptance of the updated Terms.

17. Severability

If any provision of these Terms is found to be unenforceable or invalid by a court of competent jurisdiction, that provision shall be limited or eliminated to the minimum extent necessary so that the remaining provisions of these Terms shall remain in full force and effect.
