19. Publicity. Koodos is entitled to publicly list and name Client as a customer of Koodos and use Client’s name, trademarks, service marks, trade names, and logos to identify Client as a client, on its websites, in marketing and promotional material and in other communications with the public, including existing or potential Koodos customers, resellers, or investors.

20. Governing Law, Jurisdiction and Dispute Resolution. 

20.1 This Agreement is governed by the laws of the State of New York, without reference to its conflict of laws principles. The United Nations Convention on Contracts for the International Sale of Goods will not apply to this Agreement. Except as set out in Section 20.4, all claims arising under this Agreement will be litigated exclusively in the state and federal courts of San Francisco County. The Parties submit to the jurisdiction in those courts.

20.2 Jury waiver. With respect to any claim or dispute under this Agreement, the Parties hereby irrevocably waive all right to trial by jury in any court in any action for the adjudication of any claim or dispute arising under this agreement.

20.3 Class action waiver. The Client waives any right to assert any claims against Koodos as a representative or member in any class or representative action, except where such waiver is prohibited by law or deemed by a court of law to be unenforceable. To the extent the Client is permitted by law or court of law to proceed with a class or representative action against Koodos, the Client agrees that: (i) it shall not be entitled to recover attorneys’ fees or costs associated with pursuing the class or representative action (not withstanding any other provision in this agreement); and (ii) the Client will not submit a claim or otherwise participate in any recovery secured through the class or representative action.

20.4 Equitable relief. You acknowledge and agree that in the event of a breach or threatened violation of Koodos’s intellectual property rights and confidential and proprietary information by you, Koodos will suffer irreparable harm and will therefore be entitled to injunctive relief to enforce this Agreement. Koodos may, without waiving any other remedies under this Agreement and under law, seek from any court having jurisdiction any interim, equitable, provisional, or injunctive relief that is necessary to protect Koodos’s rights and property. 

21. Compliance with applicable law and restriction on use of End User Data. Each Party confirms that it will comply with all applicable law in connection with exercising its rights or performing its obligations under this Agreement. Each Party confirms that, in connection with Client’s use of Koodos’s Offering, End User Data will be transmitted or made available in a manner that neither Koodos nor Client will alter the substance of the End User Data. Each Party will be acting only as a service provider and/or a conduit, and not as a consumer-reporting agency, in connection with the End User Data processed and transmitted under this Agreement. Koodos shall collect, use, and transmit End User Data only as requested by the Client and as requested and authorized by the owner of such information. Each Party confirms that neither Party is a reseller of data but simply provides the service of transferring data as requested and authorized by the owner thereof from one Person to the Person directed and authorized to receive the data by the owner thereof. Each Party confirms that End User Data may contain personal and/or sensitive information and therefore each Party will employ commercially reasonable physical, administrative, and technical safeguards to secure the End User Data from unauthorized use or disclosure.

22. Notices. Koodos will send notices or communications to you through the email registered by you with Koodos. All notices and communications to Koodos under this Agreement must be sent to Koodos Inc. 515 Greenwich Street, New York, NY, 10013 or to support@koodos.com. Either Party may update its notice address by notice to the other Party in accordance with this provision.

23. Force Majeure. Neither Party will be liable for any delay or failure to perform as required by this Agreement (except for payment obligations) as a result of any cause or condition beyond its reasonable control, so long as it uses reasonable efforts to avoid or remove those causes of delay or non-performance.

24. Severability. If any provision of this Agreement is held to be illegal or unenforceable then such provision shall be severed from the Agreement without affecting the enforceability of the remainder of the Agreement. 

25. Relationship. Nothing in this Agreement shall give rise to any relationship of partnership, joint venture or profit sharing in the nature of partnership between the Parties. No one other than a Party to this Agreement shall have any right to enforce any of its terms.

26. Assignment. This Agreement shall not be transferred or assigned by the Client without Koodos’s prior written consent. Koodos may assign or transfer this Agreement to its Affiliates or in connection with a merger, acquisition, sale of business/undertaking, reorganization or other change of control. 

27. Subcontracting. Koodos may subcontract its obligations under this Agreement, but will remain responsible for all such obligations to the Client.
