18.1Parties. The Parties are independent contractors. Nothing in these Terms shall be deemed to constitute a partnership, joint venture, employment or franchise between the Parties, nor constitute any Party as the agent of the other Party for any purpose or entitle any Party to commit or bind the other Party in any manner.

18.2Entire Agreement and Revisions. These Terms including any exhibits and Pricing Agreements, constitute the entire agreement, and supersede all prior or contemporaneous, written or oral understandings, communications or agreements between the Parties regarding such subject matter, including any click-wrap terms. Any use of Your pre-printed forms, such as purchase orders, are for convenience only, and any pre-printed terms and conditions set forth in Your printed forms that are in addition to, inconsistent or in conflict with, or different than, these Terms shall be null and void. Neither commencement of performance, nor failure to object to any additional or different terms and conditions from You, nor provision of Services, by, in each case, Us or Our other Group Companies shall constitute an acceptance of any terms and conditions proposed by You that are in addition to, inconsistent or in conflict with, or different than, these Terms. In the event of a conflict between any Pricing Agreement and these Terms, the Pricing Agreement shall prevail to the extent it is intended to. We may amend these Terms from time to time by posting the most current version on Our Website, in which case the new Terms will supersede prior versions. Please check these Terms periodically to take notice of changes as they will be binding on You. If an amendment materially affects Your rights, We will notify You (by, for example, sending a message to the e-mail address associated with Your Account, or posting on Our blog or on the Website or as a notification inside the Services). Your continued use of the Services following the effective date of any such amendment may be relied upon by Us as Your acceptance of any such amendment. If You do not agree to an amendment, You may terminate Your use of the Services or request Us to terminate the provision of Our Services to You.

18.3Severability and Waiver. If any provision of these Terms is held to be unenforceable by a court of competent jurisdiction, the unenforceable provision shall be replaced by the court with an enforceable provision that comes closest to the Parties' intent underlying the unenforceable provision, and the remaining provisions of these Terms shall remain in full force and effect. The unenforceability of any provision in any jurisdiction shall not affect the enforceability of such provision in any other jurisdiction. Our non-exercise of any right herein does not constitute a waiver of that right or provision of these Terms. Any term of these Terms may be waived only by a separate written agreement signed by Our authorized representative.

18.4Assignment. We may assign or transfer all or any part of these Terms or Our rights under these Terms or delegate the performance of Our duties under these Terms in whole or in part to any of the other Group Companies, or in connection with any acquisition, consolidation, merger, reorganization, transfer all or substantially all of Our assets or other business combination, or by operation of law without Your consent and without providing notice.

Subject to the foregoing, these Terms will bind and benefit the Parties and their respective successors and permitted assigns.

18.5Third Party Beneficiaries.

THE PARTIES HEREBY WAIVE ANY RIGHTS THEY MAY HAVE TO TRIAL BY JURY. YOU AGREE THAT ANY PROCEEDINGS, INCLUDING ANY ARBITRATION, WILL BE CONDUCTED ONLY ON AN INDIVIDUAL BASIS AND NOT IN A CLASS, CONSOLIDATED OR REPRESENTATIVE ACTION. Each Party shall have the right, at its election, to seek injunctive or other equitable relief in any court of competent jurisdiction to enforce these Terms, which remedy will be cumulative and not exclusive.
