General Information

The Terms constitute the entire agreement between you and ThisWayUp and govern your use of the Service, superseding any prior agreements between you and ThisWayUp. You also may be subject to additional terms and conditions that may apply when you use affiliate services, third-party content or third-party software. You and ThisWayUp agree to submit to the personal and exclusive jurisdiction of the courts of ThisWayUp's choice. The failure of ThisWayUp to exercise or enforce any right or provision of the Terms shall not constitute a waiver of such right or provision. If any provision of the Terms is found by a court of competent jurisdiction to be invalid, the parties nevertheless agree that the court should endeavor to give effect to the parties' intentions as reflected in the provision, and the other provisions of the Terms remain in full force and effect. You agree that regardless of any statute or law to the contrary, any claim or cause of action arising out of or related to use of the Service or the Terms must be filed within one (1) year after such claim or cause of action arose or be forever barred.

The section titles in the Terms are for convenience only and have no legal or contractual effect.
