The license is effective until terminated by Financial Institution, which it may do at any time, with or without notice. Once this license is terminated, you will no longer be entitled to use the App, and you shall then cease all use of the App and destroy any legally made copies or portions thereof, of the Licensed Application.

You may not use or otherwise export or re-export the App except as authorized by United States law and the laws of the jurisdiction in which the App was obtained. In particular, but without limitation, the App 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 list of Specially Designated Nationals or the U.S. Department of Commerce Denied Person’s List or Entity List.

Financial Institution reserves the right to transfer or assign this Agreement or any right or obligation under this Agreement at any time to any party. Financial Institution may also assign or delegate certain of its rights and responsibilities under this Agreement to affiliates, independent contractors or other third parties.

If Financial Institution has reason to believe that you have engaged in any of the prohibited or unauthorized activities described in this Agreement or have otherwise breached your obligations under this Agreement, it may: terminate, suspend or limit your access to or use of the App or the Services; notify law enforcement, regulatory authorities, impacted third parties, and others as it deems appropriate; refuse to provide the Services to you in the future; and/or take legal action against you. In addition, Financial Institution, in its sole discretion, reserves the right to terminate this Agreement, and access to or use of the Services for any reason or no reason and at any time. These remedies are cumulative and are in addition to the other rights and remedies available to Financial Institution under this Agreement, by law or otherwise.

In the event of a dispute regarding the App or the Services, you agree that it will be resolved by looking to this Agreement. For any claim (excluding claims for injunctive or other equitable relief) where the total amount of the award sought is less than $10,000.00 USD, the party requesting relief may elect to resolve the dispute in a cost effective manner through binding non-appearance-based arbitration. If a party elects arbitration, that party will initiate such arbitration through Judicial Arbitration and Mediation Services (“JAMS”), the American Arbitration Association (“AAA”), or another established alternative dispute resolution (ADR) administrator mutually agreed upon by the parties. The parties agree that that the following rules shall apply: (a) the arbitration may be conducted telephonically, online and/or be solely based on written submissions, at the election of the party initiating the arbitration; (b) the arbitration shall not involve any personal appearance by the parties, their representatives or witnesses unless otherwise mutually agreed by the parties; (c) discovery shall not be permitted; (d) the matter shall be submitted for decision within ninety (90) days of initiation of arbitration, unless otherwise agreed by the parties, and the arbitrator must render a decision within thirty (30) days of submission; and (e) any award in such arbitration shall be final and binding upon the parties, and it may be submitted to any court of competent jurisdiction for confirmation. The parties acknowledge that remedies available under federal, state and local laws remain available through arbitration. NO CLASS ACTION, OR OTHER REPRESENTATIVE ACTION, OR PRIVATE ATTORNEY GENERAL ACTION, OR JOINDER OR CONSOLIDATION OF ANY CLAIM WITH A CLAIM OF ANOTHER PERSON SHALL BE ALLOWABLE IN ARBITRATION.

This Agreement shall be governed by and construed in accordance with the laws of the State of Georgia, without regard to conflicts of laws provisions of Georgia or any other state. To the extent that the terms of this Agreement conflict with applicable state or federal law, such state or federal law shall replace such conflicting terms only to the extent required by law. Unless expressly stated otherwise, all other terms of this Agreement shall remain in full force and effect. You agree that any claim or dispute you may have against us (other than those which are arbitrated in compliance with this Agreement) must be resolved by a court located in Gwinnett County, Georgia. You agree to submit to the personal jurisdiction of such courts for the purpose of litigating all claims or disputes unless said claim is submitted to arbitration under this Agreement. The United Nations Convention on Contracts for the International Sale of Goods shall not apply to this Agreement. Both parties agree to waive any right to have a jury participate in the resolution of any dispute or claim between the parties or any of their respective affiliates arising under this Agreement.

You shall indemnify and hold harmless Financial Institution and its affiliates and their licensors, contractors, and business partners and their affiliates and the employees and contractors of each of these, from any loss, damage, claim or demand (including attorney’s fees) made or incurred by any third party due to or arising out of your breach of this Agreement or your use of the App or the Services.
You hereby release Financial Institution and its affiliates and their licensors, contractors, and business partners, and their affiliates, and the employees and contractors of each of these, from any and all claims, demands and damages (actual and consequential) of every kind and nature arising out of or in any way connected with any dispute that may arise between you and one or more other users of the App or the Services. In addition, you waive California Civil Code §1542, which states that a general release does not extend to claims which the creditor does not know or suspect to exist in his favor at the time of executing the release, which if not known by him must have materially affected his settlement with the debtor.

Financial Institution shall not be deemed to have waived any rights or remedies hereunder unless such waiver is in writing and signed by one of our authorized representatives. No delay or omission on Financial Institution’s part in exercising any rights or remedies shall operate as a waiver of such rights or remedies or any other rights or remedies. A waiver on any one occasion shall not be construed as a bar or waiver of any rights or remedies on future occasions.
You agree that this Agreement is the complete and exclusive statement of the agreement between you and the Financial Institutions with respect to the subject matter covered herein, sets forth the entire understanding between Financial Institution and you with respect to the App, the Services, and the website through which the App or the Services are offered, and supersedes any proposal or prior agreement, oral or written, and any other communications between you and Financial Institution. If any provision of this Agreement is held to be invalid or unenforceable, such provision shall be struck and the remaining provisions shall be enforced. The captions of sections hereof are for convenience only and shall not control or affect the meaning or construction of any of the provisions of this Agreement. Any terms which by their nature should survive, will survive the termination of this Agreement. If there is a conflict between the terms of this Agreement and something stated by an employee or contractor of ours (including but not limited to its customer care personnel), the terms of this Agreement will prevail.
