12. LIMITATION OF LIABILITY

IMC and the other IMC Parties will not be liable to you under any theory of liability—whether based in contract, tort, negligence, strict liability, warranty, or otherwise—for any indirect, consequential, exemplary, incidental, special or punitive damages or lost profits, even if IMC or the other IMC Parties have been advised of the possibility of such damages.

The total liability of IMC and the other IMC Parties for any claim arising out of or relating to these Terms or our Service, regardless of the form of the action, is limited to the amount paid, if any, by you to access or use our Service.

The limitations set forth in this Section will not limit or exclude liability for the gross negligence, fraud or intentional misconduct of IMC or the other IMC Parties or for any other matters in which liability cannot be excluded or limited under applicable law. Additionally, some jurisdictions do not allow the exclusion or limitation of incidental or consequential damages, so the above limitations or exclusions may not apply to you.

14. TRANSFER AND PROCESSING OF DATA

By accessing or using the Service, you consent to the processing, transfer and storage of information about you in accordance with our Privacy Policy.

15. DISPUTE RESOLUTION; ARBITRATION

Please read the following section carefully because it requires you to arbitrate certain disputes and claims with IMC and limits the manner in which you can seek relief from us.

Except for small claims disputes in which you or IMC seek to bring an individual action in small claims court located in the county of your billing address, or disputes in which you or IMC seeks injunctive or other equitable relief for the alleged unlawful use of intellectual property, you and IMC waive your rights to a jury trial and to have any dispute arising out of or related to these Terms or our Service resolved in court. Instead, all disputes arising out of or relating to these Terms or our Service will be resolved through confidential binding arbitration held in the County of Los Angeles, California in accordance with the Streamlined Arbitration Rules and Procedures (“Rules”) of the Judicial Arbitration and Mediation Services (“JAMS”), which are available on the JAMS website and hereby incorporated by reference. You either acknowledge and agree that you have read and understand the rules of JAMS or waive your opportunity to read the rules of JAMS and any claim that the rules of JAMS are unfair or should not apply for any reason.

You and IMC agree that any dispute arising out of or related to these Terms or our Service is personal to you and IMC and that any dispute will be resolved solely through individual arbitration and will not be brought as a class arbitration, class action or any other type of representative proceeding.

You and IMC agree that these Terms affect interstate commerce and that the enforceability of this Section 15 will be substantively and procedurally governed by the Federal Arbitration Act, 9 U.S.C. § 1, et seq. (the "FAA"), to the maximum extent permitted by applicable law. As limited by the FAA, these Terms and the JAMS Rules, the arbitrator will have exclusive authority to make all procedural and substantive decisions regarding any dispute and to grant any remedy that would otherwise be available in court; provided, however, that the arbitrator does not have the authority to conduct a class arbitration or a representative action, which is prohibited by these Terms. The arbitrator may only conduct an individual arbitration and may not consolidate more than one individual’s claims, preside over any type of class or representative proceeding or preside over any proceeding involving more than one individual. You and IMC agree that for any arbitration you initiate, you will pay the filing fee and IMC will pay the remaining JAMS fees and costs. For any arbitration initiated by IMC, IMC will pay all JAMS fees and costs. You and IMC agree that the state or federal courts of the State of California and the United States sitting in the County of Los Angeles have exclusive jurisdiction over any appeals and the enforcement of an arbitration award.

Any claim you may have arising out of or related to these Terms or our Service must be filed within one year after such claim arose; otherwise, your claim is permanently barred, which means that you and IMC will not have the right to assert the claim.

You have the right to opt out of binding arbitration within thirty (30) days of the date you first accepted the terms of this Section 15 by emailing info@escapefromalcatraztriathlon.com. In order to be effective, the opt out notice must include your full name and clearly indicate your intent to opt out of binding arbitration. By opting out of binding arbitration, you are agreeing to resolve Disputes in accordance with Section 16.

16. GOVERNING LAW AND VENUE

These Terms and your access to and use of our Service will be governed by and construed and enforced in accordance with the laws of California, without regard to conflict of law rules or principles (whether of California or any other jurisdiction) that would cause the application of the laws of any other jurisdiction. Any dispute between the parties that is not subject to arbitration or cannot be heard in small claims court will be resolved in the state or federal courts of the County of Los Angeles, California.

17. CHANGES TO THESE TERMS

We may make changes to these Terms from time to time. If we make changes, we will post the amended Terms to our Service and update the “Last Updated” date above. We may also attempt to notify you by sending an email notification to the address associated with your account or providing notice through our Service. Unless we say otherwise in our notice, the amended Terms will be effective immediately and your continued access to and use of our Service after we provide notice will confirm your acceptance of the changes. If you do not agree to the amended Terms, you must stop accessing and using our Service.

18. TERMINATION

We reserve the right, without notice and in our sole discretion, to terminate your right to access or use the Service. We are not responsible for any loss or harm related to your inability to access or use our Service.

19. SEVERABILITY

If any provision or part of a provision of these Terms is unlawful, void or unenforceable, that provision or part of the provision is deemed severable from these Terms and does not affect the validity and enforceability of any remaining provisions.

20. MISCELLANEOUS

These Terms constitute the entire agreement between you and IMC relating to your access to and use of our Service. The failure of IMC to exercise or enforce any right or provision of these Terms will not operate as a waiver of such right or provision. The section titles in these Terms are for convenience only and have no legal or contractual effect. Except as otherwise provided herein, these Terms are intended solely for the benefit of the parties and are not intended to confer third party beneficiary rights upon any other person or entity.
