General Information
The Terms and C&S's Privacy Statement constitute the entire agreement between you and C&S and govern your use of the Services, superceding any prior agreements between you and C&S. You also may be subject to additional terms and conditions that are applicable to certain Services. The failure of C&S to exercise or enforce any right or provision of the Terms or this User Agreement shall not constitute a waiver of such right or provision. If any provision of the Terms or the User Agreement is found by a court of competent jurisdiction to be invalid, the parties agree that the arbitrator should give effect to the parties' intentions as reflected in the provision, and all other provisions will remain in full force and effect. You may not assign the Terms or any of your rights or obligations under the Terms without C&S's express written consent. The Terms inure to the benefit of C&S's successors, assigns and licensees. The section titles in the Terms are for convenience only and have no legal or contractual effect.

Choice of Law and Arbitration
This User Agreement will be governed by and construed in accordance with the laws of the State of California, excluding its conflict of laws principles. Each party agrees to submit any and all disputes concerning this User Agreement, if not resolved between the parties, to binding arbitration under a neutral, independent and impartial arbitrator in accordance with the Commercial Rules of the American Arbitration Association ("AAA"); provided, however, the arbitrator may not vary, modify or disregard any of the provisions contained in this section. The decision and any award resulting from such arbitration shall be final and binding. The place of arbitration will be at C&S's offices. The arbitrator is not empowered to award damages in excess of compensatory damages and you irrevocably waive any right to recover such damages with respect to any dispute resolved by arbitration. The fees of the arbitrator will be borne equally by you and C&S. The language of arbitration will be English; provided, however, that an interpreter may be provided for any witness who requires an interpreter. The costs of such interpretation will be borne by the party requesting the interpreter. Any final decision or award from arbitration under this section will be in writing and reasoned. Each party will bear their own costs and expenses that are reasonable and necessary for participating in arbitration under this section. As part of any arbitration conducted under this section, each party may: (1) request from the other party documents and other materials relevant to the dispute and likely to bear on the issues in such dispute, (2) conduct no more than three oral depositions, each of which will be limited to a maximum of seven hours in testimony, and (3) propound to the other party no more than 30 written interrogatories, answers to which the other party will give under oath. All the dispute resolution proceedings contemplated in this section will be as confidential and private as permitted by law. The parties will not disclose the existence, content or results of any proceedings conducted in accordance with this section, and materials submitted in connection with such proceedings will not be admissible in any other proceeding; provided, however, that this confidentiality provision will not prevent a petition to vacate or enforce an arbitration award, and shall not bar disclosures required by law. The parties agree that any decision or award resulting from proceedings in accordance with this section shall have no preclusive effect in any other matter involving third parties. All applicable statutes of limitation and defenses based upon the passage of time will be tolled while the procedures specified in this section are pending. The parties will take such action, if any, required to effectuate such tolling. The arbitration shall be governed by the United States Arbitration Act and any court having jurisdiction may enter judgement upon the award rendered by the arbitrator.

Changes to the User Agreement
As C&S's business changes from time to time, this User Agreement is expected to change. C&S reserves the right to amend the User Agreement at any time, for any reason, without notice to you, other than the posting of the amended User Agreement at this Site. C&S may email periodic reminders of its notices and Terms, but you should check the Site frequently to see the current User Agreement in effect and any changes that may have been made to it.
