Jurisdiction and Applicable Law

Our Web site is based in the United States of America (“U.S.A.”). If you access this Web site from outside the U.S.A., you do so on your own initiative, at your own risk, and accept total responsibility for your conduct. These Terms of Use shall be governed, construed and enforced according to the laws of the State of New York, U.S.A., without giving effect to: (i) New York’s conflict of law’s provisions; (ii) the United Nations Convention on Contracts for the International Sale of Goods; (iii) the 1974 Convention on the Limitation Period in the International Sale of Goods; and (iv) the Protocol amending the 1974 Convention, done at Vienna on April 11, 1980.

You also agree to comply, at your expense, with all applicable local, state, federal and international laws and regulations, including, but not limited to, U.S.A. export restrictions that relate to your use or activities on this Web site. To the fullest extent permitted by law, the controlling language, at all times, for these Terms of use is English.

Severability

You and WebPhoria agree that if any portion of these Terms of Use or of the WebPhoria Privacy Statement is found illegal or unenforceable, in whole or in part by any court of competent jurisdiction, such provision shall, as to such jurisdiction, be ineffective solely to the extent of such determination of invalidity or unenforceability without affecting the validity or enforceability thereof in any other manner or jurisdiction and without affecting the remaining provisions of the Terms of Use or of the WebPhoria Privacy Statement, which shall continue to be in full force and effect.

Remedies

All remedies set forth herein are cumulative and in addition to and not in lieu of any other remedy of the WebPhoria Parties at law or in equity.

No Waiver

The failure of WebPhoria to require or enforce strict performance by you of any provision of these Terms of Use or the WebPhoria Privacy Statement or failure to exercise any right under them shall not be construed as a waiver or relinquishment of the WebPhoria’s Parties’ right to assert or rely upon any such provision or right in that or any other instance. The express waiver by WebPhoria of any provision, condition, or requirement of these Terms of Use or the WebPhoria Privacy Statement shall not constitute a waiver of any future obligation to comply with such provision, condition or requirement.

Modification

Except as expressly and specifically set forth in this these Terms of Use, no representations, statements, consents, waivers, or other acts or omissions by WebPhoria shall be deemed a modification of these Terms of Use nor be legally binding, unless documented in physical writing, hand signed by you and a duly appointed officer of WebPhoria.

Termination

You agree that WebPhoria may terminate or suspend your use of the Web site, its products or services at any time and for any or no reason in its sole discretion, and without any liability to you or any third party, even if access and use continues to be allowed to others.

Survival

Any provision which must survive to allow us to enforce its meaning shall survive termination; however, no claim or action relating in any way to these Terms of Use, including the Privacy Statement, Web site, its content or otherwise with respect to their subject matter, regardless of form or the basis of the claim, may be brought by or through you more than one (1) year after the cause of action has arisen (or if multiple causes, from the date the first such cause of action arose).
