General

 

These Terms of Use collectively constitute the entire agreement with respect to your access to and use of the System and the Services. You agree that you shall not contest the admissibility or enforceability of Ron Clark Academy’s copy of these Terms of Use in connection with any action or proceeding arising out of or relating to these Terms of Use. Except as expressly provided for herein, these Terms of Use do not confer any rights, remedies, or benefits upon any person or entity other than you and Ron Clark Academy. Ron Clark Academy may assign its rights and duties under these Terms of Use at any time to any third party without notice. You may not assign these Terms of Use without the prior written consent of Ron Clark Academy. These Terms of Use shall be binding on and inure to the benefit of the parties hereto and their respective successors and assigns. You are responsible for complying with any and all laws of the jurisdiction from which you are accessing the System and using the Services and any other jurisdiction whose laws apply to you or your actions.

 

To the extent any portion of these Terms of Use shall be determined to be unenforceable by a court of competent jurisdiction, such portion will be modified by the court solely to the extent necessary to cause such portion to be enforceable, and these Terms of Use as so modified will remain in full force and effect. Any waiver of any provisions contained in these Terms of Use by Ron Clark Academy shall not be deemed to be a waiver of any other right, term, or provision of these Terms of Use.

These remedies are in addition to any other remedies we may have at law or in equity.

 

Governing Law/Jurisdiction/Claims Limitation

 

These Terms of Use shall be governed by and construed under the laws of the State of Georgia, without regard to conflicts of laws, principles or rules. Any legal action brought by you that arises out of or relates to these Terms of Use or your access to and use of the System or the Services must be commenced within one year after the cause of action arises.

 

If the Parties do not resolve any dispute by informal negotiation, any other effort to resolve the dispute will be conducted exclusively by binding individual arbitration governed by the Federal Arbitration Act (“FAA”). You are giving up the right to litigate (or participate in litigation as a party or class member for) all disputes in court before a judge or jury.  Instead, all disputes will be resolved on an individual basis before a neutral arbitrator, whose decision will be final except for a limited right of appeal under the FAA. Any court with jurisdiction over the Parties may enforce the arbitrator’s award.

 

Notwithstanding any of the foregoing or any other provision of this these Terms, class arbitration is not permitted under any circumstance. The Parties agree that, by entering into these Terms, THE PARTIES MAY BRING CLAIMS AGAINST THE OTHER ONLY IN THEIR RESPECTIVE INDIVIDUAL CAPACITY, and not as a plaintiff or class member in any purported class or representative proceeding. Further, you agree that the arbitrator may not consolidate proceedings or more than one person’s claims, and may not otherwise preside over any form of a representative or class proceeding.
