YOU WAIVE ANY RIGHT TO HAVE YOUR CASE DECIDED BY A JURY AND YOU WAIVE ANY RIGHT TO PARTICIPATE IN A CLASS ACTION AGAINST ASAP. If any provision of this arbitration agreement is found unenforceable, the unenforceable provision will be severed, and the remaining arbitration terms will be enforced (but in no case will there be a class or representative arbitration). All Disputes will be resolved finally and exclusively by binding individual arbitration with a single arbitrator administered by the American Arbitration Association (www.adr.org) according to this Section and the applicable arbitration rules for that forum. The Federal Arbitration Act, 9 U.S.C. §§ 1­16, fully applies. Any arbitration hearing will occur in San Francisco, California, or another mutually agreeable location. The arbitrator's award will be binding on the parties and may be entered as a judgment in any court of competent jurisdiction. We will pay all the arbitration fees due to the American Arbitration Association for any Dispute. If you prevail on any claim for which you are legally entitled to attorney's fees, you may seek to recover those fees from the arbitrator. For any claim where you are seeking relief, we will not seek to have you pay our attorney's fees, even if fees might otherwise be awarded, unless the arbitrator determines that your claim was frivolous. For purposes of this arbitration provision, references to you and Square also include respective subsidiaries, affiliates, agents, employees, predecessors, successors and assigns as well as authorized users or beneficiaries of the Services. Subject to and without waiver of the arbitration provisions above, you agree that any judicial proceedings will be brought in, and you consent to, the exclusive jurisdiction and venue in the state courts in the City and County of San Francisco, California, or federal court for the Northern District of California.

24. GOVERNING LAW

These TOS and any Dispute will be governed by California law and/or applicable federal law (including the Federal Arbitration Act) as applied to agreements entered into and to be performed entirely within California, without regard to its choice of law or conflicts of law principles.

25. LIMITATION ON TIME TO INITIATE A DISPUTE

Any action or proceeding by you relating to any Dispute must commence within one year after the cause of action accrues.

26. ASSIGNMENT

These TOS, and any rights and licenses granted hereunder, may not be transferred or assigned by your and any attempted transfer or assignment will be null and void.

27. GENERAL

These TOS and any applicable Additional Terms or Policies, are a complete statement of the agreement between you and ASAP regarding the Services. In the event of a conflict between these TOS and any other ASAP agreement or Policy, these TOS will prevail and control the subject matter of such conflict. You may also be subject to additional terms and conditions that may apply when you use affiliate services, third-party content, or third-party software. If any part of these TOS or Additional Terms is held invalid or unenforceable, that portion will be construed in a manner consistent with applicable law to reflect, as nearly as possible, the original intentions of the parties, and the remaining portions will remain in full force and effect. The failure of ASAP to exercise or enforce any right or provision of these TOS will not constitute a waiver of such right or provision. You agree that, except as otherwise expressly provided in these TOS, there will be no third-party beneficiaries to these TOS.
