XV. Miscellaneous

A. Governing Law. The Site is hosted and operated in the United States of America. These Terms of Use, Privacy Policy and the relationship between you and us relating to your access to and use of the Site shall be governed by and interpreted for all purposes in accordance with the laws of the State of Texas, USA, without regard to any conflict of laws principles that would require the application of the laws of a different jurisdiction.

B. Jurisdiction and Venue. Any dispute, action or proceeding arising out of or related to these Terms of Use, your access to or use of the Site or Services, or information made available to you through the Site shall be commenced in the state courts of Texas or, if proper and exclusive subject matter jurisdiction exists, the U.S. District Court of the Northern District of Texas. You hereby consent to the exclusive personal jurisdiction and venue of such courts and waive any objections thereto, including without limitation any objection based on forum non conveniens; provided, however, the foregoing shall not prevent us from seeking temporary or permanent injunctive or other equitable relief against you or compelling your indemnification obligations in any court of competent jurisdiction.

C. Assignments. You may not assign these Terms of Use or assign or delegate any right or duty under these Terms of Use, in whole or in part, without our prior written consent. Any attempted assignment or delegation shall be null and void from the beginning and without effect. We may assign these Terms of Use or any right or duty under these Terms of Use, with or without notice to you, including to any affiliate or successor in interest. Subject to the foregoing, these Terms of Use shall be binding on and inure to the benefit of you and us, and each of our respective heirs, administrators, successors and permitted assigns.

D. Third Party Beneficiaries. Nothing contained in these Terms of Use, express or implied, is intended or shall be construed to give any third party any rights or remedies under or by reason of these Terms of Use. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the disclaimers and limitations on liability under these Terms of Use shall extend to Newman, its directors, officers, employees, agents, affiliates, and suppliers. All references to Newman in connection therewith shall be deemed to include such persons and entities as third party beneficiaries entitled to accept all benefits afforded thereby.

E. Amendment; Waiver. Any amendment by you or waiver by us of these Terms of Use must be in writing and signed by a duly authorized representative of Newman. No provision shall be waived by any act, omission or knowledge of a party. Any waiver on one occasion shall not constitute a waiver of any other or subsequent duty or breach.

F. Severability. If any provision of these Terms of Use is determined to be invalid or unenforceable under applicable law, the provision shall be amended by a court of competent jurisdiction to accomplish the objectives of such provision to the greatest extent possible under applicable law, or severed from these Terms of Use if such amendment is not possible, and the remaining provisions of these Terms of Use shall continue in full force and effect.

G. Construction. The captions in these Terms of Service are for reference purposes only and shall not affect the meaning or interpretation of these Terms of Use. The term “including” as used herein means “including without limitation.” The terms “hereunder,” “herein,” “hereof” and similar variations mean these Terms of Service as a whole, and not any particular section.

H. Entire Agreement. These Terms of Use, including the Privacy Policy, and additional terms referenced herein, set forth the entire agreement of the parties with regard to the subject matter hereof, and supersede all prior and contemporaneous negotiations and agreements, written or oral.

I. Data Breach. While Newman employs security measures to maintain data security, data breaches can occasionally happen, even to the most secure of systems. In the event of such a situation, Newman will, in compliance with any applicable federal and state data breach laws, endeavor to timely notify all users whose Personal Information Newman knows or has irrefutable reason to believe was accessed by an unauthorized person.

J. Force Majeure. You agree that we are not responsible to you for anything that Newman may otherwise be responsible for if it is the result of events beyond our control, including, but not limited to, acts of God, war, insurrection, riots, terrorism, crime, labor shortages (including lawful and unlawful strikes), embargoes, postal disruption, communication disruption, failure or shortage of infrastructure, or shortage of materials.

K. Non-Waiver. We reserve all rights permitted to us under these Terms of Use as well as under any applicable law. Our non-enforcement of any particular provision or provisions of this Terms of Use or of any applicable law shall not be construed as a waiver of our right to enforce that same provision or provisions under the same or different circumstances at any time in the future.

L. Notice Regarding Amendments to the Terms of Use. To best keep you informed regarding any amendments, changes, or revisions to the Terms of Use, we may provide you with notices through email, postings on the Site, or other notification methods. Your continued use of the Newman Site after the publication of such amendments constitutes your acceptance of our amended Terms of Use.
