8. Governing Law and Jurisdiction

All matters relating to the Service and these Terms, and any dispute or claim arising therefrom or related thereto (in each case, including non-contractual disputes or claims), shall be governed by and construed in accordance with the internal laws of the United States, without giving effect to any choice or conflict of law provision or rule. Any legal suit, action, or proceeding arising out of, or related to, these Terms or the Service shall be instituted exclusively in the federal or state courts located in the United States, and you consent to the personal jurisdiction of and venue in such courts.

9. Dispute Resolution and Class Action Waiver

Any dispute, controversy, or claim arising out of or relating to these Terms, including the formation, interpretation, breach, or termination thereof, including whether the claims asserted are arbitrable, will be referred to and finally determined by arbitration in accordance with the rules of the American Arbitration Association (AAA). The place of arbitration shall be within the United States. The arbitrator's decision shall be final and binding, and judgment on the award rendered by the arbitrator may be entered in any court having jurisdiction thereof.

YOU AND PARTPASS FIELD GUIDE AGREE THAT EACH MAY BRING CLAIMS AGAINST THE OTHER ONLY IN YOUR OR ITS INDIVIDUAL CAPACITY, AND NOT AS A PLAINTIFF OR CLASS MEMBER IN ANY PURPORTED CLASS OR REPRESENTATIVE PROCEEDING. Further, unless both you and PartPass Field Guide agree otherwise, the arbitrator may not consolidate more than one person's claims, and may not otherwise preside over any form of a representative or class proceeding.

10. Severability and Waiver

If any provision of these Terms is found by a court of competent jurisdiction or arbitrator to be invalid, illegal, or unenforceable, such provision shall be eliminated or limited to the minimum extent necessary so that the remaining provisions of the Terms will continue in full force and effect. No waiver by PartPass Field Guide of any term or condition set forth in these Terms shall be deemed a further or continuing waiver of such term or condition or a waiver of any other term or condition.
