21. Exclusions and Limitations

Applicable law may not allow the limitation of liability, implied warranties or the exclusion or limitation of certain damages set forth above, so this limitation of liability may not apply to you. To the extent that we may not, as a matter of applicable law, disclaim any implied warranty or limit its liabilities, the scope and duration of such warranty and the extent of our liability shall be the minimum permitted under such applicable law.

If any part of this limitation on liability is found to be invalid or unenforceable for any reason, then the aggregate liability of the brick underground under such circumstances for liabilities that otherwise would have been limited shall not exceed one hundred dollars ($100).
 

22. Modification or Suspension of the Website

Brick Underground may at any time modify, discontinue, or suspend its operation of this Website, or any part thereof, temporarily or permanently, without notice to you.

 

23. Fees

We reserve the right at any time to charge fees for access to the Website, any services, or to any specific new feature or content that we may introduce from time to time. In no event will you be charged for access to the Website or any services unless we obtain your prior agreement to pay such fees.

Details regarding the content or services you will receive in exchange for fees, as well as the payment terms and conditions that apply, will be disclosed to you prior to your agreement to pay such fees. You agree to pay such fees if you sign up for any fee-based service. Any such terms and conditions shall be deemed to be a part of (and are hereby incorporated by reference into) this Agreement.

 

24. Termination

Either party may terminate the Agreement for any or no cause, at any time, by notice, which shall be effective immediately or as specified in the notice. After termination, you shall no longer access the Website. The provisions of this Agreement which by their intent or meaning are intended to survive such termination shall continue to apply indefinitely.

27. Entire Agreement; Applicable Law and Non-Waiver of Brick Underground’s Rights

You acknowledge and agree that this Agreement constitutes the complete and exclusive agreement between us concerning your use of the Website, and supersede and govern all prior proposals, agreements, or other communications.

You agree that: (i) our Website shall be deemed solely based in New York, New York, USA; and (ii) our Website shall be deemed a passive website that does not give rise to personal jurisdiction over Brick Underground or any of its affiliates or service providers, either specific or general, in jurisdictions other than New York.

This Agreement and the resolution of any dispute related to this Agreement or the Website shall be governed by and construed in accordance with the laws of the State of New York without giving effect to any principles of conflicts of law. Any legal action or proceeding between Brick Underground or its affiliates, on the one hand, and you, on the other hand, related to the Agreement shall be brought exclusively in a state or federal court of competent jurisdiction sitting in the borough of Manhattan in New York, New York, United States, and you agree to submit to the personal and exclusive jurisdiction of such courts and to waive any defenses of inconvenient forum.

This choice of law provision is only intended to specify the use of New York law to interpret this Agreement and is not intended to create any substantive right to a non-New York resident’s ability to assert claims under New York law whether by statute, common law, or otherwise.

Our failure to require your performance of any provision hereof shall not affect our full right to require such performance at any time thereafter, nor shall our waiver of a breach of any provision hereof be taken or held to be a waiver of the provision itself.

 

28. Notices

Unless otherwise specified in this Agreement, all notices under Agreement will be in writing and will be deemed to have been duly given when received, if personally delivered or sent by certified or registered mail, return receipt requested; when receipt is electronically confirmed, if transmitted by facsimile or email; or the day after it is sent, if sent for next day delivery by recognized overnight delivery service.
