to such courts. You agree that any claim or cause of action arising out of your
use of the GutMeet Service or these Terms of Service must be filed within one (1)
year after such claim or cause of action arose or it shall forever be barred, notwithstanding
any status of limitations or other law to the contrary. Within this period, any
failure by GutMeet to enforce or exercise any provisions of these Terms of Service
or related right shall not constitute a waiver of that right or provision. If any
provision of these Terms of Service shall be unlawful, void, or for any reason unenforceable,
then that provision shall be deemed severable from these terms and shall not affect
the validity and enforceability of any remaining provisions. GutMeet may assign
these Terms of Service, in whole or in part, at any time with or without notice
to you. You may not assign, transfer or sublicense these Terms of Service or any
or all of your rights or obligations under these Terms of Service without GutMeet's
express prior written consent. No waiver by either party of any breach or default
hereunder will be deemed to be a waiver of any preceding or subsequent breach or
default. Any heading, caption or section title contained herein is inserted only
as a matter of convenience, and in no way defines or explains any section or provision
hereof. This is the entire agreement between you and GutMeet relating to the subject
matter herein and shall not be modified by you except in writing, signed by both
parties. These Terms of Service will inure to the benefit of GutMeet's successors,
assigns and licensees. Without limitation, you agree that a printed version of these
Terms of Service and of any notice given in electronic form shall be admissible
in judicial or administrative proceedings based upon or relating to these Terms
of Service to the same extent and subject to the same conditions as other business
documents and records originally generated and maintained in printed form.
