Except for where prohibited by Applicable law: (a) The exclusive means of resolving any dispute or claim arising out of or relating to this Agreement (including any alleged breach thereof) or the Service shall be BINDING ARBITRATION administered by the American Arbitration Association. The one exception to the exclusivity of arbitration is that you have the right to bring an individual claim against The Startup Haus in a small-claims court of competent jurisdiction. But whether you choose arbitration or small-claims court, you may not under any circumstances commence or maintain against The Startup Haus any class action, class arbitration, or other representative action or proceeding. (b) By using the Service in any manner, you agree to the above arbitration agreement. In doing so, YOU GIVE UP YOUR RIGHT TO GO TO COURT to assert or defend any claims between you and The Startup Haus (except for matters that may be taken to small-claims court). YOU ALSO GIVE UP YOUR RIGHT TO PARTICIPATE IN A CLASS ACTION OR OTHER CLASS PROCEEDING. Your rights will be determined by a NEUTRAL ARBITRATOR, NOT A JUDGE OR JURY. You are entitled to a fair hearing before the arbitrator. The arbitrator can grant any relief that a court can, but you should note that arbitration proceedings are usually simpler and more streamlined than trials and other judicial proceedings. Decisions by the arbitrator are enforceable in court and may be overturned by a court only for very limited reasons. For details on the arbitration process, see our Arbitration Procedures. (c) Any proceeding to enforce this arbitration agreement, including any proceeding to confirm, modify, or vacate an arbitration award, may be commenced in any court of competent jurisdiction. In the event that this arbitration agreement is for any reason held to be unenforceable, any litigation against The Startup Haus (except for small-claims court actions) may be commenced only in the federal or state courts located in Maricopa County, Arizona. You hereby irrevocably consent to the jurisdiction of those courts for such purposes. (d) This Agreement, and any dispute between you and The Startup Haus, shall be governed by the laws of the state of Arizona without regard to principles of conflicts of law, provided that this arbitration agreement shall be governed by the Federal Arbitration Act. (e) For users residing in the European Union, Norway or elsewhere where this arbitration agreement is prohibited by law, the laws of Arizona, U.S.A., excluding Arizona’s conflict of laws rules, will apply to any disputes arising out of or relating to this Agreement or the Service. All claims arising out of or relating to this Agreement or the Services will be litigated exclusively in the federal or state courts of Maricopa County, Arizona, USA, and you and The Startup Haus consent to personal jurisdiction in those courts. - Limitation of Time to File Claims.
ANY CAUSE OF ACTION OR CLAIM YOU MAY HAVE ARISING OUT OF OR RELATING TO THIS AGREEMENT OR THE SERVICE MUST BE COMMENCED WITHIN ONE (1) YEAR AFTER THE CAUSE OF ACTION ACCRUES, OTHERWISE, SUCH CAUSE OF ACTION OR CLAIM IS PERMANENTLY BARRED. - Entire Agreement.
This Agreement and our Privacy Policy constitute the entire agreement between you and The Startup Haus with respect to the Service and supersede all prior or contemporaneous understandings and agreements, whether written or oral, with respect to the Service. - Changes to the Agreement and Services.
Lifetracks reserves the right to make changes to this Agreement and the Services provided through the Service from time to time. If we make material changes to the Agreement, we will notify you either by sending you a notification by email, or by a notice displayed within the Service. Continued use of the Service following such notice will constitute your acceptance of the changes.

From time to time, to provide the best service and user experience, The Startup Haus may modify the Services provided through the Service based on your suggestions.

You also grant us the right to use any material, information, ideas, concepts, know-how or techniques contained in any communication you provide or otherwise submit to us for any purpose whatsoever, including but not limited to, commercial purposes, and developing, manufacturing and marketing commercial products using such information. All rights in this paragraph are granted without the need for additional compensation of any sort to you. - Hateful Conduct Policy.
You may not promote violence against or directly attack or threaten other people on the basis of race, ethnicity, national origin, caste, sexual orientation, gender, gender identity, religious affiliation, age, disability, or serious disease. We also do not allow accounts whose primary purpose is inciting harm towards others on the basis of these categories. Hateful imagery and display names: You may not use hateful images or symbols in your profile image or profile header. You also may not use your username, display name, or profile bio to engage in abusive behavior, such as targeted harassment or expressing hate towards a person, group, or protected category. Violation of this policy is grounds for immediate freeze of your account and permanent ban from the Service. - Survival.
Any provision of this Agreement which contemplates performance or observance subsequent to any termination or expiration of this Agreement shall survive any termination or expiration of this Agreement and continue in full force and effect. Such provisions include but are not limited to sections governing refunds and unclaimed property. - Waiver.
No failure to exercise, and no delay in exercising, on the part of either party, any right or any power hereunder shall operate as a waiver thereof, nor shall any single or partial exercise of any right or power hereunder preclude further exercise of that or any other right hereunder. In the event of a conflict between this Agreement and any Applicable purchase or other terms, the terms of this Agreement shall govern. - Business Day.
"Business Day" means a day other than a Saturday, Sunday or other day on which commercial banks in Tempe, Arizona are authorized or required by Law to be closed for business. - Non-transferable account.
You agree that your Service account is non-transferable and all of your rights to your profile or contents within your Service account terminate upon your death. No agency, partnership, joint venture or employment is created as a result of this Agreement and you may not make any representations or bind The Startup Haus in any manner.
