    • Governing Law; Jurisdiction. Any controversy or claim arising out of or relating to this Agreement, the formation of this Agreement or the breach of this Agreement, including any claim based upon or arising from an alleged tort, shall be governed by the substantive laws of the State of Alabama. The United Nations Convention on Contracts for the International Sale of Goods does not apply to this Agreement. Any suit, action or proceeding concerning this Agreement must be brought in a state or federal court located in Birmingham, Alabama. You irrevocably consent to the exclusive jurisdiction of such courts (and of the appropriate appellate courts therefrom) in any such suit, action or proceeding and irrevocably waives, to the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, any objection which it may now or hereafter have to the laying of the venue of any such suit, action or proceeding in any such court or that any such suit, action or proceeding which is brought in any such court has been brought in an inconvenient forum.

    • Arbitration.
      For all Subscribers who signed up for or purchased Services on or after April 1, 2019, the following terms shall also apply:

      1. MSM MANAGING SOLUTIONS and you (such references include our respective subsidiaries, affiliates, predecessors in interest, successors and assigns) agree to arbitrate all disputes and claims arising out of or relating to this Agreement between MSM MANAGING SOLUTIONS and you.

      2. A party who intends to seek arbitration must first send written notice to MSM MANAGING SOLUTIONS' Legal Department of its intent to arbitrate ("Notice"). The Notice to MSM MANAGING SOLUTIONS should be sent by any of the following means: (i) electronic mail to legal@msmmanagingsolutions.com. The Notice must (x) describe the nature and basis of the claim or dispute; and (y) set forth the specific relief sought. If we do not reach an agreement to resolve the claim within thirty (30) days after the Notice is received, you or MSM MANAGING SOLUTIONS may commence an arbitration proceeding.

      3. The arbitration shall be governed by the Consumer Arbitration Rules (the “Arbitration Rules”) of the American Arbitration Association (“AAA”), as modified by this Agreement, and shall be administered by the AAA. All issues are for the arbitrator to decide, including the scope of this arbitration clause, provided, however, that the arbitrator is bound by the terms of this Agreement.

      4. In the event you are able to demonstrate that the costs of arbitration will be prohibitive as compared to the costs of litigation, MSM MANAGING SOLUTIONS will pay as much of your filing, administrative, and arbitrator fees in connection with the arbitration as the arbitrator deems necessary to prevent the arbitration from being cost-prohibitive. If, however, the arbitrator finds that either the substance of your claim or the relief sought is improper or not warranted, as measured by the standards set forth in the Federal Rule of Civil Procedure 11(b), then the payment of arbitration costs shall be governed by the Arbitration Rules. In such case, you agree to reimburse MSM MANAGING SOLUTIONS for all monies previously disbursed by it that are otherwise your obligation to pay under the Arbitration Rules. If the arbitrator grants relief to you that is equal to or greater than the value of your demand, MSM MANAGING SOLUTIONS shall reimburse you for your reasonable attorneys' fees and expenses incurred for the arbitration.

      5. You agree that, by entering into this Agreement, you and MSM MANAGING SOLUTIONS are waiving the right to a trial by jury.

      6. If you initiate litigation or any other proceeding against MSM MANAGING SOLUTIONS in violation of this section, you agree to pay MSM MANAGING SOLUTIONS’ reasonable attorneys’ fees incurred in connection with its enforcement of this section.

      7. The parties shall maintain the confidential nature of the arbitration proceeding and any award, including the hearing, except as may be necessary to prepare for or conduct the arbitration hearing on the merits, or except as may be necessary in connection with a court application for a preliminary remedy, a judicial challenge to an award or its enforcement, or unless otherwise required by law or judicial decision.

      8. ARBITRATION MUST BE ON AN INDIVIDUAL BASIS. THIS MEANS NEITHER YOU NOR MSM MANAGING SOLUTIONS MAY JOIN OR CONSOLIDATE CLAIMS IN ARBITRATION BY OR AGAINST OTHER SUBSCRIBERS, OR LITIGATE IN COURT OR ARBITRATE ANY CLAIMS AS A REPRESENTATIVE OR MEMBER OF A CLASS OR IN A PRIVATE ATTORNEY GENERAL CAPACITY. Further, you agree that the arbitrator may not consolidate proceedings or more than one person's claims, and may not otherwise preside over any form of a representative or class proceeding, and that if this specific proviso is found to be unenforceable, then the entirety of this arbitration clause shall be null and void. The arbitrator may award injunctive relief only in favor of the individual party seeking relief and only to the extent necessary to provide relief warranted by that party's individual claim.

27. Miscellaneous.

    • Backups. For its own operational efficiencies and purposes, MSM MANAGING SOLUTIONS from time to time backs up data on its servers, but is under no obligation or duty to Subscriber to do so under this Agreement. IT IS SOLELY SUBSCRIBER'S DUTY AND RESPONSIBILITY TO BACKUP SUBSCRIBER'S FILES AND DATA ON MSM MANAGING SOLUTIONS SERVERS, AND under no circumstance will MSM MANAGING SOLUTIONS be liable to anyone FOR DAMAGES OF ANY KIND under any legal theory for loss of Subscriber files and/or data on any MSM MANAGING SOLUTIONS server. MSM MANAGING SOLUTIONS will not attempt to back up accounts that exceed 50,000 files or 30 Gigs of space for any reason and does not maintain any backups of dedicated accounts.

    • Independent Contractor. MSM MANAGING SOLUTIONS and Subscriber are independent contractors and nothing contained in this Agreement places MSM MANAGING SOLUTIONS and Subscriber in the relationship of principal and agent, partners or joint venturers.

    • Headings. The headings herein are for convenience only and are not part of this Agreement.

    • Entire Agreement. This Agreement, including documents incorporated herein by reference, supersedes all prior discussions, negotiations and agreements between the parties with respect to the subject matter hereof, and this Agreement constitutes the sole and entire agreement between the parties with respect to the matters covered hereby.

    • Severability. If any provision or portion of any provision of this Agreement shall be held to be illegal, invalid or unenforceable by a court of competent jurisdiction, it is the intention of the parties that the remaining provisions or portions (unless otherwise specified) thereof shall constitute their agreement with respect to the subject matter hereof, and all such remaining provisions or portions (unless otherwise specified) thereof shall remain in full force and effect.

    • Waiver. No failure or delay by any party hereto to exercise any right or remedy hereunder shall operate as a waiver thereof, nor shall any single or partial exercise of any right or remedy by any party preclude any other or further exercise thereof or the exercise of any other right or remedy. No express waiver or assent by any party hereto to any breach of or default in any term or condition of this Agreement shall constitute a waiver of or an assent to any succeeding breach of or default in the same or any other term or condition hereof.

    • Assignment; Successors. You may not assign or transfer this Agreement or any of its rights or obligations hereunder, without the prior written consent of MSM MANAGING SOLUTIONS. Any attempted assignment in violation of the foregoing provision shall be null and void and of no force or effect whatsoever. MSM MANAGING SOLUTIONS may assign its rights and obligations under this Agreement, and may engage subcontractors or agents in performing its duties and exercising its rights hereunder, without your consent. This Agreement shall be binding upon and shall inure to the benefit of the parties hereto and their respective successors and permitted assigns.

    • Force Majeure. Neither party is liable for any default or delay in the performance of any of its obligations under this Agreement (other than failure to make payments when due) if such default or delay is caused, directly or indirectly, by forces beyond such party's reasonable control, including, without limitation, fire, flood, acts of God, labor disputes, accidents, acts of war or terrorism, interruptions of transportation or communications, supply shortages or the failure of any third party to perform any commitment relative to the production or delivery of any equipment or material required for such party to perform its obligations hereunder.

    • Third-Party Beneficiaries. Except as otherwise expressly provided in this Agreement, nothing in this Agreement is intended, nor shall anything herein be construed to confer any rights in any person other than the parties hereto and their respective successors and permitted assigns. Notwithstanding the foregoing, you acknowledge and agree that any supplier of a third-party product or service that is identified as a third-party beneficiary in the Service description, is an intended third-party beneficiary of the provisions set forth in this Agreement as they relate specifically to its products or services and shall have the right to enforce directly the terms and conditions of this Agreement with respect to its products nor services against you as if it were a party to this Agreement.

28. WordPress Plugins.

    • MSM MANAGING SOLUTIONS may provide discounted student rates to participating universities for their students.

    • Billing information is provided by the student at sign-up or, if the University has prepaid the Initial Term, when the student signs up for additional products or services or renews the account after the Initial Term.

    1. Services.
       MSM MANAGING SOLUTIONS’ Maestro service allows a web professional (the “Web Pro”) to access, manage and take certain actions in connection with Web Pro’s client’s (the “Client”) Wordpress account (the “WP Account”) and/or Client’s hosting account (the “Hosting Account”) through a central dashboard provided by MSM MANAGING SOLUTIONS (collectively, the “Maestro Services”). Web Pro can only access the Hosting Account, if Client is a MSM MANAGING SOLUTIONS Subscriber. The Maestro Services enable Web Pro to request access directly from the Client through the use of a unique link provided by MSM MANAGING SOLUTIONS (the “Link”).

    2. Account Access Terms.

       • WP Account. By clicking on the Link and granting Web Pro access to Client’s WP Account, Client agrees to grant full access of Client’s Wordpress Admin area to Web Pro. Granting access to the Client’s WP Account allows Web Pro to have Administrator access to the account and to take all actions on the account, including without limitation, make purchases, view and edit content, and manage passwords and log in information.

       • Hosting Account. By clicking on the Link and granting Web Pro access to Client’s Hosting Account, Client agrees to grant Web Pro account management access to Client’s Hosting Account. Granting access to Client’s Hosting Account allows Web Pro to take all administrative actions on the account, including without limitation, managing advanced hosting settings e.g. databases, FTP, email accounts, and domain settings, but does not allow Web Pro to access any Client billing information or make purchases on the account.

       • Revoking Access. Client can revoke Web Pro’s access to either its WP Account, Hosting Account, or both at any time through Client’s MSM MANAGING SOLUTIONS account control panel or Client’s WP Account.

    3. Web Pro’s Representations and Warranties. By sending Client the Link, Web Pro represents and warrants that Web Pro: (i) has an established business relationship with Client, and (ii) will use the Maestro Services only in connection with such business relationship.

    4. Disclaimer. MSM MANAGING SOLUTIONS makes no guarantees or representations regarding the skills or actions of Web Pro and specifically disclaims any liability in connection with Web Pro’s acts or omissions. Client grants Web Pro access to Client’s WP Account and/or Hosting Account in Client’s sole discretion. Web Pros are not contractors, employees, or agents of MSM MANAGING SOLUTIONS. In the event there is a dispute between Web Pro and Client, the parties must resolve the dispute directly. MSM MANAGING SOLUTIONS is not responsible for resolving any disputes between the parties.

    5. Termination.
       In addition to MSM MANAGING SOLUTIONS’ other termination rights contained in this Agreement, MSM MANAGING SOLUTIONS may terminate Web Pro’s Maestro Services in the event: (i) MSM MANAGING SOLUTIONS discontinues the Maestro Services; or (ii) MSM MANAGING SOLUTIONS receives complaints from Web Pro’s Client concerning Web Pro’s use of the Maestro Services.

    6. Indemnification.
       Web Pro and Client hereby agree to release, indemnify, and hold harmless MSM MANAGING SOLUTIONS and any of its affiliates, employees, agents, suppliers and licensors from and against any and all claims arising from Web Pro or Client’s use of the Maestro Services.
