  • Any claim that your User Content caused damage to a third party

This defense and indemnification obligation will survive these Terms and your use of the Service.

10. Dispute Resolution

Informal Resolution

Before filing a claim against us, you agree to try to resolve the dispute informally by contacting us at our contact page. We'll try to resolve the dispute informally by contacting you via email.

Binding Arbitration

If we cannot resolve a dispute informally, you and Yoga Hours agree to resolve any disputes arising out of or relating to these Terms or the Service through final and binding arbitration, except as set forth below. The arbitration will be conducted by the American Arbitration Association (AAA) under its Commercial Arbitration Rules. The arbitration will be held in the United States, in the state where Yoga Hours is located, or another location we agree to.

Exceptions

Either party may bring a lawsuit solely for injunctive relief to stop unauthorized use or abuse of the Service or intellectual property infringement without first engaging in the informal dispute resolution process described above.

Class Action Waiver

You and Yoga Hours agree that any dispute resolution proceedings will be conducted only on an individual basis and not in a class, consolidated, or representative action. If for any reason a claim proceeds in court rather than in arbitration, you and Yoga Hours each waive any right to a jury trial.

11. Governing Law

These Terms shall be governed by and construed in accordance with the laws of the United States and the state in which Yoga Hours is located, without regard to its conflict of law provisions. Our failure to enforce any right or provision of these Terms will not be considered a waiver of those rights.

12. Severability

If any provision of these Terms is held to be invalid or unenforceable by a court, the remaining provisions of these Terms will remain in effect. These Terms constitute the entire agreement between us regarding our Service and supersede and replace any prior agreements we might have between us regarding the Service.

13. Changes to Terms

We reserve the right, at our sole discretion, to modify or replace these Terms at any time. If a revision is material, we will try to provide at least 30 days notice prior to any new terms taking effect. What constitutes a material change will be determined at our sole discretion.

By continuing to access or use our Service after those revisions become effective, you agree to be bound by the revised terms. If you do not agree to the new terms, please stop using the Service.
