THE SERVICES AND ALL CONTENT DELIVERED TO YOU AND YOUR CUSTOMERS THROUGH THE SERVICES ARE (EXCEPT AS EXPRESSLY STATED BY HEREIN) PROVIDED "AS IS" AND "AS AVAILABLE" FOR YOUR USE, WITHOUT WARRANTIES OF ANY KIND, EITHER EXPRESS OR IMPLIED, INCLUDING ALL IMPLIED WARRANTIES OF MERCHANTABILITY, FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE, TITLE, AND NONINFRINGEMENT. IN NO CASE SHALL EITHER PARTY, ITS DIRECTORS, OFFICERS, EMPLOYEES, AFFILIATES, AGENTS, CONTRACTORS, OR LICENSORS BE LIABLE FOR ANY DIRECT, INDIRECT, INCIDENTAL, PUNITIVE, SPECIAL, OR CONSEQUENTIAL DAMAGES ARISING FROM YOUR USE OR ANY CUSTOMERS’ USE OF ANY OF THE SERVICES OR FOR ANY OTHER CLAIM RELATED IN ANY WAY TO YOUR USE OR YOUR CUSTOMERS’ USE OF THE SERVICES AND/OR CONTENT, INCLUDING, BUT NOT LIMITED TO, ANY ERRORS OR OMISSIONS IN ANY CONTENT, OR ANY LOSS OR DAMAGE OF ANY KIND INCURRED AS A RESULT OF THE USE OF ANY CONTENT POSTED, TRANSMITTED, OR OTHERWISE MADE AVAILABLE VIA THE SERVICES, EVEN IF ADVISED OF THEIR POSSIBILITY.

In no event shall Applova’s total liability to you for all damages (other than as may be required by applicable law in cases involving personal injury) exceed the amount of fifty dollars ($50.00). The foregoing limitations will apply even if the above stated remedy fails of its essential purpose. You may not use or otherwise export or re-export the Services except as authorized by United States law. In particular, but without limitation, the Services may not be exported or re-exported (a) into any U.S.-embargoed countries or (b) to anyone on the U.S. Treasury Department's Specially Designated Nationals List or the U.S. Department of Commerce Denied Persons List or Entity List. By using the Services, you represent and warrant that you are not located in any such country or on any such list.

This Agreement shall become effective when signed electronically or manually by the parties hereto and shall continue until termination as set forth herein. In the event that this Agreement should terminate for any reason, Merchant agrees to pay the fees remaining unpaid.
Either party may terminate this Agreement upon 10 days written notice to the other party. Any termination of this Agreement (howsoever occasioned) shall not affect any accrued rights or liabilities of either party nor shall it affect the coming into force or the continuance in force of any provision hereof which is expressly or by implication intended to come into or continue in force on or after such termination. Termination of this Agreement for any reason will not relieve you of your obligation hereunder to pay Applova the fees for usage of the Services of your Customers following such termination.
Neither party will use, copy, adapt, alter or part with possession of any information of the other which is disclosed or otherwise comes into its possession under or in relation to this Agreement and which is of a confidential nature. This obligation will not apply to information which the recipient can prove was in its possession at the date it was received or obtained or which the recipient obtains from some other person with good legal title to it or which is in or comes into the public domain otherwise than through the default or negligence of the recipient or which is independently developed by or for the recipient.
You (and also any third party for whom you operate an account or activity on the Services) agree to defend (at Applova’s request), indemnify and hold Applova harmless from and against any claims, liabilities, damages, losses, and expenses, including without limitation, reasonable attorney’s fees and costs, arising out of or in any way connected with any of the following (including as a result of your direct activities on the Services or those conducted on your behalf): (i) your Content or your access to or use of the Services; (ii) your product supplied or dispensed (iii) your breach or the alleged breach of this Agreement; (iv) your violation of any third-party right, including without limitation, any intellectual property right, copyright, trademarks, publicity, confidentiality, property or privacy right; (v) your violation of any laws, rules, regulations, codes, statutes, ordinances or orders of any governmental authorities; or (vi) any misrepresentation made by you. You shall cooperate as required by Applova in the defense of any claim.
You agree that all disputes between you and Applova will be resolved by binding, individual arbitration under the American Arbitration Association’s rules for arbitration of consumer-related disputes and you and Applova expressly waive trial by jury. This dispute resolution provision will be governed by the Federal Arbitration Act. In the event the American Arbitration Association is unwilling or unable to set a hearing date within one hundred and eighty (180) days of filing the case, then either Applova or you can elect to have the arbitration administered instead by the Judicial Arbitration and Mediation Services. Judgment on the award rendered by the arbitrator may be entered in any court having competent jurisdiction. Any provision of applicable law notwithstanding, the arbitrator will not have authority to award damages, remedies or awards that conflict with this Agreement. If any provision of this Agreement is held to be unlawful, void, or for any reason unenforceable during arbitration or by a court of competent jurisdiction, then that provision will be deemed severable from this Agreement and will not affect the validity and enforceability of any remaining provisions. Applova’s failure to insist upon or enforce strict performance of any provision of this Agreement will be deemed a further or continuing waiver of such term or condition or any other term or condition. Applova reserves the right to change this dispute resolution provision, but any such changes will not apply to disputes arising before the effective date of the amendment.
This Agreement is governed by and construed in accordance with the laws of the State of New Jersey, without giving effect to any principles of conflicts of law AND WILL SPECIFICALLY NOT BE GOVERNED BY THE UNITED NATIONS CONVENTIONS ON CONTRACTS FOR THE INTERNATIONAL SALE OF GOODS, IF OTHERWISE APPLICABLE. For any action at law or in equity relating to the arbitration provision of this Agreement, you agree to resolve any dispute you have with Applova exclusively in a state or federal court located in New Jersey, and to submit to the personal jurisdiction of the courts located in New Jersey for the purpose of litigating all disputes. Applova is exempt from the California Consumer Privacy Act regulations as currently drafted.
You agree to post a privacy policy on your storefront that complies with the laws applicable to your business. You also agree to obtain consent from your Customers for the use and access of their personal and financial information by Applova and other third parties. Any data collected by or used by Applova pursuant to this Agreement shall be collected and used in accordance with Applova’s Privacy Policy.

The data collected by Applova may be included with other information in data bases used by Applova internally, for its own account or for the purposes of providing services to its clients, provided such use is in compliance with all applicable rules, regulations, and laws.
Sections 2 through 12 of this Agreement shall survive termination of the Agreement for any reason. Applova reserves the right at any time to modify this Agreement and to add new or additional terms or conditions on your use of the Services. Such modifications and additional terms and conditions will be effective immediately and incorporated into this Agreement. Your continued use of the Services will be deemed acceptance thereof.

you provide to us or make available to us in connection with providing Services to you and promoting the proper use of the Services. This Agreement constitutes the entire agreement between you and Applova and governs your use of the Services, superseding any prior agreements with respect to the same subject matter between you and Applova. You also may be subject to additional terms and conditions that may apply when you use affiliate services, third-party content, third-party software, or additional services. If any part of this Agreement is held invalid or unenforceable, that portion shall be construed in a manner consistent with applicable law to reflect, as nearly as possible, the original intentions of the parties, and the remaining portions shall remain in full force and effect. Applova’s failure to enforce any right or provisions in this Agreement will not constitute a waiver of such or any other provision. Applova will not be responsible for failures to fulfill any obligations due to causes beyond its control.
