Governing Law and Jurisdiction
These Terms, the Service, and any claim, cause
of action or dispute arising out of or related thereto, will be governed exclusively
by the laws of the State of Israel, regardless of your country of origin or
where you access the Service from, and without giving effect to any conflicts
of law principles, which would result in the application of the laws of a
jurisdiction other than the State of Israel.
The competent courts in the Tel Aviv district
in Israel will have sole and exclusive jurisdiction over any claim in
connection with the Service and in respect of any matter relating to the
validity, applicability, performance or interpretation of these Terms. You
agree to the exclusive jurisdiction of the above mentioned courts and agree to
accept service of process by any means permitted by the applicable law.
General
These Terms constitute the entire
agreement between you the Company with respect to the subject matter herein and
supersede any and all prior agreements, negotiations and understandings,
whether written or oral. No waiver, concession, extension, representation,
alteration, addition or derogation from these Terms or pursuant hereto will be
effective unless expressly effected in writing by our authorized representative.
Neither party to these Terms will, by mere lapse of time, without giving
express notice thereof, be deemed to have waived any breach, by the other
party, of provisions of these Terms. A waiver, by either party, of any such
breach, will not be construed as a waiver of subsequent breaches or as a
continuing waiver of such breach.
Assignment
You may not assign, transfer or delegate your
rights or obligations under the Terms. Any purported assignment, transfer or
delegation by you will be null and void. We may assign, transfer and delegate
our rights and obligations under the Terms, to any third party, without notice
to you and without obtaining your consent, provided that the third party to
whom we assign or delegate our obligations, undertakes our obligations to you
under the Terms. Contemporaneously with such assignment or delegation of our obligations,
the Company is released from all its obligations to you under the Terms.
Interpretation
As used in these Terms, the term “including”,
means including, but not limited to, and without limitation, to the generality
of the preceding phrase. All examples in the Terms and all "i.e." and
"such as" notations, indicate an illustration, by way of example
only, of the preceding phrase, without limiting its generality. The paragraph
headings herein are intended solely for the purpose of orientation and reading
convenience, and will not be used for interpretational purposes.
Severability
If any provision of these Terms is held by a
court of competent jurisdiction to be illegal, invalid, unenforceable, or
otherwise contrary to law, that provision must be construed in a manner
consistent with the applicable law to reflect, as nearly as possible, its
original intention, and the remaining provisions of these Terms will remain in
full force and effect.
