Governing Law:

You agree that: (i) the Service shall be deemed solely based in Texas; and (ii) the Service shall be deemed a passive one that does not give rise to personal jurisdiction over Golfstiks, either specific or general, in jurisdictions other than Texas.

Arbitration:

In the unlikely event that Golfstiks 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 Golfstiks 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 the Williamson county of Texas. 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 Golfstiks from seeking injunctive or other equitable relief from the courts as necessary to protect any of Golfstiks’ 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 Golfstiks are each waiving the right to a trial by jury or to participate in a class action.

This Agreement, together with all amendments, all documents referenced in this Agreement, and any other legal notices and agreements published by Golfstiks via the Service, shall constitute the entire agreement between you and Golfstiks 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 Golfstiks’ failure to assert any right or provision under this Agreement shall not constitute a waiver of such right or provision.
