16. Notice
BetterPlay may deliver notice to you by means of e-mail, a general notice on the App, or by other reliable method to the address you have provided to BetterPlay.

17. Interpretation and Disputes
These Terms are governed by the laws of the State of Michigan, without regard to any conflict of laws provisions.

If we have not been able to resolve the dispute informally within thirty (30) days after both parties received notice of the dispute, we both agree to resolve any claim, dispute or controversy arising out of or in connection with or relating to these Terms by binding arbitration conducted pursuant to the JAMS Streamlined Arbitration Rules and Procedures that are in effect at the time the arbitration is initiated (referred to as the “JAMS Rules”). Unless we both agree otherwise, the arbitration will be conducted in the same county as our offices. Each party will be responsible for paying any filing, administrative and arbitrator fees in accordance with the JAMS Rules. The award rendered by the arbitrator shall include costs of arbitration, reasonable attorneys’ fees, and reasonable costs for expert and other witnesses. Any judgment on the award rendered by the arbitrator may be entered in any court of competent jurisdiction. The arbitration, along with all filings and decisions, will be confidential except as necessary to enforce the award.

If any provision of these Terms is deemed unenforceable or invalid by a court or arbitrator, then the court or arbitrator shall modify such provision to the minimum extent necessary to make such provision enforceable and valid. Should such modification prove impossible or impracticable, then the provision shall be severed, and the remaining terms of these Terms shall be interpreted and read to give them maximum enforceability.

ARBITRATION MEANS THAT YOU AND BETTERPLAY ARE AGREEING TO GIVE UP ANY RIGHTS TO LITIGATE CLAIMS IN A COURT OR BEFORE A JURY, OR TO PARTICIPATE IN A CLASS ACTION OR REPRESENTATIVE ACTION WITH RESPECT TO A CLAIM. OTHER RIGHTS THAT YOU WOULD HAVE IF YOU WENT TO COURT MAY ALSO BE UNAVAILABLE OR MAY BE LIMITED IN ARBITRATION. YOU AGREE THAT, BY ENTERING INTO THESE TERMS, YOU AND BETTERPLAY ARE WAIVING THE RIGHT TO A TRIAL BY JURY.

Notwithstanding the foregoing provisions, each party retains the right to bring an individual action in small claims court or to seek injunctive or other equitable relief in a court of competent jurisdiction to prevent the actual or threatened infringement, misappropriation or violation of a party’s copyrights, trademarks, trade secrets, patents, or other intellectual property.

18. Entire Agreement
These Terms constitute the entire agreement between you and BetterPlay relating to the subject matter herein, and supersede all prior or contemporaneous understandings or agreements, written or oral, regarding such subject matter.

19. Waiver and Severability
Furthermore, no delay or omission by BetterPlay to exercise any right or any noncompliance on your part with respect to the Terms shall impair any such right or be construed to be a waiver by BetterPlay. If any provision of the Terms is found by a court of competent jurisdiction to be invalid or unenforceable in whole or in part, such provision shall, as to such jurisdiction, be ineffective to the extent of such invalidity or unenforceability without in any manner affecting the validity or enforceability thereof in any other jurisdiction or the remaining provisions hereof in any jurisdiction, provided, however, if such invalid or unenforceable provision may be modified so as to be valid and enforceable as a matter of law, such provision will be deemed to have been modified so as to be valid and enforceable to the maximum extent permitted by law.

20. Electronic Communications
You acknowledge that these Terms are a valid and binding agreement. To the fullest extent permitted by law, you agree that these Terms and any other documentation, agreements, notices, or communications between you and BetterPlay may be provided to you electronically.
