Governing Law

You agree that: (i) the Service shall be deemed solely based in Basel; and (ii) the Service shall be deemed a passive one that does not give rise to personal jurisdiction over Swapooks, either specific or general, in jurisdictions other than Basel. This Agreement shall be governed by the internal substantive laws of Basel. You agree to submit to the personal jurisdiction of a state court located in Basel for any actions for which we retain the right to seek injunctive or other equitable relief in a court of competent jurisdiction to prevent the actual or threatened infringement, misappropriation or violation of a our copyrights, trademarks, trade secrets, patents, or other intellectual property or proprietary rights, as set forth in the Arbitration provision below.

Arbitration

In the unlikely event that Swapooks has not been able to resolve a dispute it has with you after attempting to do so informally, we each agree to resolve any claim, dispute, or controversy (excluding any Swapooks claims for injunctive or other equitable relief) arising out of or in connection with or relating to this Agreement, or the breach or alleged breach thereof (collectively, "Claims"), by binding arbitration in Basel. The award rendered by the arbitrator shall include costs of arbitration, reasonable attorney's fees and reasonable costs for expert and other witnesses, and any judgment on the award rendered by the arbitrator may be entered in any court of competent jurisdiction. Nothing in this Section shall be deemed as preventing Swapooks from seeking injunctive or other equitable relief from the courts as necessary to protect any of Swapooks’s proprietary interests. All claims must be brought in the party’s individual capacity, and not as a class member in any purported class or representative proceeding.  You agree that, by entering into this agreement, you and Swapooks are each waiving the right to a trial by jury or to participate in a class action.

Entire Agreement/Severability

This Agreement, together with all amendments, all documents referenced in this Agreement, and any other legal notices and agreements published by Swapooks via the Service, shall constitute the entire agreement between you and Swapooks concerning the Service. If a court of competent jurisdiction deems any provision of this Agreement invalid, the invalidity of such provision shall not affect the validity of the remaining provisions of this Agreement, which shall remain in full force and effect.

No Waiver

No waiver of any term of this Agreement shall be deemed a further or continuing waiver of such term or any other term, and Swapooks’s failure to assert any right or provision under this Agreement shall not constitute a waiver of such right or provision.
