7.2        EXCEPT AS EXPRESSLY SET FORTH IN THESE TERMS, ShowMeQuickly MAKES NO REPRESENTATIONS OR WARRANTIES, EXPRESS OR IMPLIED, WITH REGARD TO THE SERVICES, OR ANY ACTIVITIES OR ITEMS RELATED TO THESE TERMS. TO THE MAXIMUM EXTENT PERMITTED BY LAW, ShowMeQuickly AND ITS SUPPLIERS DISCLAIM ALL EXPRESS OR IMPLIED CONDITIONS, REPRESENTATIONS AND WARRANTIES INCLUDING, BUT NOT LIMITED TO, THE WARRANTIES OF MERCHANTABILITY, FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE, AND NON-INFRINGEMENT. THE SERVICES ARE PROVIDED “AS IS” AND NEITHER ShowMeQuickly NOR ITS SUPPLIERS WARRANT THAT ALL ERRORS OR DEFECTS CAN BE CORRECTED, OR THAT PROVISION AND OPERATION OF THE SERVICES SHALL BE UNINTERRUPTED OR ERROR-FREE.

8.             LIMITATION OF LIABILITY

8.1      TO THE MAXIMUM EXTENT PERMITTED BY LAW, IN NO EVENT WILL ShowMeQuickly BE LIABLE FOR ANY SPECIAL, CONSEQUENTIAL, INCIDENTAL, EXEMPLARY, PUNITIVE, OR INDIRECT OR SIMILAR LOSSES OR DAMAGES OF ANY NATURE INCLUDING, BUT NOT LIMITED TO, LITIGATION COSTS, COSTS OR DAMAGES DUE TO LOSS OF PROFITS, BUSINESS OPPORTUNITIES, REVENUE, GOODWILL, PRODUCTION OR USE, BUSINESS INTERRUPTION, PROCUREMENT OF SUBSTITUTE GOODS OR SERVICES, OR THE LOSS OR COST OF RECREATING ANY DATA, ARISING OUT OF OR IN CONNECTION WITH THESE TERMS, REGARDLESS OF THE CAUSE OF ACTION OR THE THEORY OF LIABILITY,

WHETHER IN TORT, CONTRACT OR OTHERWISE, EVEN IF ShowMeQuickly WAS ADVISED OF, KNEW OF OR SHOULD HAVE KNOWN OF THE POSSIBILITY OF SUCH LOSS OR DAMAGES AND EVEN IF THE LIMITED REMEDIES PROVIDED HEREIN FAIL OF THEIR ESSENTIAL PURPOSE.

8.2      TO THE MAXIMUM EXTENT PERMITTED BY LAW, THE TOTAL AGGREGATE LIABILITY OF ShowMeQuickly TO YOU ARISING OUT OF OR IN CONNECTION WITH THESE TERMS WILL NOT EXCEED THE AMOUNTS REMITTED TO YOU BY ShowMeQuickly DURING THE THREE (3) MONTH PERIOD PRECEDING THE EVENT GIVING RISE TO LIABILITY.

9.             INDEMNIFICATION

You agree to indemnify and hold harmless ShowMeQuickly and its affiliates, officers, directors, employees, representatives and agents from any and all claims, actions, damages, liabilities, costs, and expenses (including, but not limited to, reasonable attorneys’ fees and all related costs and expenses) arising from or relating to: (a) your use of the Services; (b) any Expert Services you provide; (c) your Content; and (d) your violation of these Terms.

10.           TERMINATION

10.1          Termination.

Subject to your obligation to complete Expert Services for which you are engaged, you have the right to cancel your Account at any time upon notice to ShowMeQuickly, and ShowMeQuickly has the unlimited right, but not the obligation, to suspend, revoke or terminate your Account and/or access to the Services at any time and for any reason, including, without limitation, if: (a) you violate these Terms; (b) ShowMeQuickly suspects or becomes aware that you have provided false or misleading information to ShowMeQuickly or a Client; or (c) ShowMeQuickly believes, in its sole discretion, that your actions, as applicable, (i) may cause legal liability for ShowMeQuickly or other users of the Services, (ii) may be contrary to the interests of the Services or its users, or (iii) may involve illicit or illegal activity. If your Account is temporarily or permanently closed, you may not use the Services under the same Account or a different Account or reregister under a new Account without ShowMeQuickly’s prior written consent.

10.2          Effect of Termination.

Cancellation or termination of your Account shall not affect (a) any liabilities or obligations of either Party arising before such cancellation or termination or out of the events causing such cancellation or termination, or (b) any damages or other remedies to which a Party may be entitled under these Terms or any agreement governing a Project, at law or in equity, arising from any breaches of such liabilities or obligations. Except as otherwise required by law or as otherwise set forth in these Terms, upon cancellation or termination of your Account, you will no longer have access to your Content on the Services and your Content may be deleted for which ShowMeQuickly will have no liability whatsoever. ShowMeQuickly may retain some or all of your Account information and Content as required by law. For the avoidance of any doubt, cancellation or termination of your Account does not automatically terminate or otherwise impact any Project, Project Agreement or other agreement governing a Project in force at such time. In the event there are any ongoing Projects at the time of cancellation or termination of your Account, these Terms will continue to apply and be in effect until all Projects have been completed or otherwise terminated pursuant to the terms of the applicable agreement governing the Project. For the avoidance of any doubt, cancellation or termination of your Account does not relieve you of your obligations with respect to the Non-Circumvention Period set forth in Section 3.5.

10.3          Survival.

Sections 1.3, 1.5, 1.6, 2.1, 2.3, 2.4, 3.1, 3.2, 3.5, 4.4, 4.5, 4.6, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10, 11 and 12 of these Terms will survive any termination or expiration hereof.

11.          DISPUTE RESOLUTION

11.1       Informal Process First.

Except in the case either Party is seeking equitable relief, you agree that in the event of any dispute between you and ShowMeQuickly, you will first contact us and make a good faith sustained effort to resolve the dispute amicably and efficiently.

11.2       Binding Arbitration.

Any dispute or claim that remains unresolved after the informal dispute resolution described in Section 11.1, except for disputes relating to the infringement of ShowMeQuickly’s intellectual property rights or the access or use of the Services in violation of these Terms (a “Claim”), will be resolved by binding arbitration, rather than in court, provided that you may assert Claims in small claims court located in Suffolk County, Massachusetts if your Claims qualify.

11.3       No Judge or Jury.

There is no judge or jury in arbitration, and court review of an arbitration award is limited. However, an arbitrator can award on an individual basis the same damages and relief as a court (including injunctive and declaratory relief or statutory damages), and must follow the terms of these Terms as a court would.

11.4       Arbitrator and Rules.

The arbitration will be conducted before a neutral single arbitrator, whose decision will be final and binding, and the arbitral proceedings will be governed by the AAA Commercial Arbitration Rules, Consumer Due Process Protocol, and Supplementary Procedures for Resolution of Consumer Related Disputes. These rules can be found on the AAA website at www.adr.org.

11.5       Starting an Arbitration.

To begin an arbitration proceeding, you must send ShowMeQuickly a notice of dispute, in writing, setting forth your name, address and contact information, the facts of the dispute and relief requested. You must send your notice of legal dispute to ShowMeQuickly at the following email address: legal@ShowMeQuickly.com. ShowMeQuickly will send any notice of dispute to you at the email address you have registered with us.

11.6       Format of Proceedings.

The arbitration will be conducted, at the option of the Party seeking relief, by telephone, online, or based solely on written submissions.

11.7       Fees.

If you initiate arbitration, your arbitration fees will be limited to the filing fee set forth in the AAA’s Consumer Arbitration Rules. Unless the arbitrator finds the arbitration was frivolous or brought for an improper purpose, ShowMeQuickly will pay all other AAA and arbitrator’s fees and expenses.

11.8       Individual Basis; Jury Trial Waiver.

To the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, you and ShowMeQuickly each agree that any proceeding to resolve a Claim will be conducted only in the respective party’s individual capacity and not as a plaintiff or class member in any purported class, consolidated, multiple plaintiff or representative action (“Class Action”). If for any reason a Claim proceeds in court rather than in arbitration, you and ShowMeQuickly each waive any right to a jury trial. You and ShowMeQuickly expressly waive any ability to maintain any Class Action in any forum. If the Claim is subject to arbitration, the arbitrator will not have authority to combine or aggregate similar claims or conduct any Class Action nor make an award to any person or entity not a party to the arbitration. Any claim that all or part of this Class Action waiver is unenforceable, unconscionable, void, or voidable may be determined only by a court of competent jurisdiction and not by an arbitrator.

11.9       Limitation Period.

In no event will any Claim, or any other action or proceeding by you (including arbitration under this Section 11) be instituted more than one (1) year after the cause of action arose.

11.10    Enforcement.

Any judgment on the award rendered by the arbitrator may be entered in any court of competent jurisdiction. The United Nations Conventions on Contracts for the International Sale of Goods will have no applicability.

11.11    Invalidity.

If a court of competent jurisdiction finds the foregoing arbitration provisions invalid or inapplicable, you and ShowMeQuickly each agree to the exclusive jurisdiction of the federal and state courts located in Boston, Massachusetts, and you and ShowMeQuickly each agree to submit to the exercise of personal jurisdiction of such courts for the purposes of litigating any applicable dispute or claim.

11.12    Opting Out.

If you do not want to arbitrate disputes with ShowMeQuickly and you are an individual, you may opt out of this arbitration agreement by sending an email to legal@ShowMeQuickly.com within thirty (30) days of the first date you access or use the Services.

12.          GENERAL

You understand that deciding not to access or use certain third-party content may impact your ability to use certain features and functionalities in the Services. You agree that ShowMeQuickly is not responsible for content, information, products, services, or other offerings provided on third-party websites. Third-party websites have their own legal terms and privacy policies, and you may be giving others permission to use your information in way ShowMeQuickly would not. ShowMeQuickly has no control over, is not responsible for and does not endorse any such websites or content, and ShowMeQuickly will have no liability for any damages or losses you incur by visiting or using such third-party websites or content or purchasing or using any products, services or other offerings from such third parties.

12.8       No Waiver.

The failure or delay of either Party to exercise or enforce any right or claim does not constitute a waiver of such right or claim and will in no way affect that Party’s right to later enforce or exercise it, unless such Party issues an express written waiver, signed by a duly authorized representative of each Party.

12.9       Severability.

If and to the extent any provision of these Terms is held illegal, invalid, or unenforceable in whole or in part under applicable law, such provision or such portion thereof will be ineffective as to the jurisdiction in which it is illegal, invalid, or unenforceable to the extent of its illegality, invalidity, or unenforceability, and will be deemed modified to the extent necessary to conform to applicable law so as to give the maximum effect to the intent of the Parties.
