TO THE MAXIMUM EXTENT PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE LAW, IN NO EVENT SHALL HOOPLY, ITS OWNERS, OFFICERS, DIRECTORS, EMPLOYEES, AGENTS, AFFILIATES, SUCCESSORS, OR ASSIGNS BE LIABLE FOR ANY INDIRECT, INCIDENTAL, SPECIAL, CONSEQUENTIAL, PUNITIVE, OR EXEMPLARY DAMAGES, INCLUDING BUT NOT LIMITED TO DAMAGES FOR LOSS OF PROFITS, REVENUE, GOODWILL, DATA, USE, OR OTHER INTANGIBLE LOSSES, ARISING OUT OF OR IN CONNECTION WITH YOUR USE OF OR INABILITY TO USE THE SERVICE, REGARDLESS OF THE THEORY OF LIABILITY (WHETHER IN CONTRACT, TORT, NEGLIGENCE, STRICT LIABILITY, OR OTHERWISE), EVEN IF HOOPLY HAS BEEN ADVISED OF THE POSSIBILITY OF SUCH DAMAGES.

This indemnification obligation shall survive the termination of these Terms and your use of the Service.

15. Dispute Resolution and Arbitration

Agreement to Arbitrate: You and Hooply agree that any dispute, claim, or controversy arising out of or relating to these Terms, the Service, or any aspect of your relationship with Hooply (collectively, "Disputes") shall be resolved exclusively through final and binding arbitration, rather than in court, except that either party may bring an individual action in small claims court if the claim qualifies.

Arbitration Rules: The arbitration shall be administered by a single arbitrator in accordance with the applicable rules of the British Columbia International Commercial Arbitration Centre (BCICAC) or such other reputable arbitration body as Hooply may designate. The seat and venue of the arbitration shall be Vancouver, British Columbia, Canada. The language of the arbitration shall be English. The arbitrator's decision shall be final and binding, and judgment on the award may be entered in any court of competent jurisdiction.

Costs: Each party shall bear its own costs of arbitration, including legal fees, unless the arbitrator determines otherwise. If the arbitrator finds that a claim was frivolous or brought in bad faith, the arbitrator may award costs and reasonable attorneys' fees to the prevailing party.

Small Claims Exception: Notwithstanding the foregoing, either party may seek relief in a small claims court of competent jurisdiction in British Columbia for any individual Dispute that falls within the jurisdictional limits of such court.

16. Class Action and Jury Trial Waiver

YOU AND HOOPLY AGREE THAT EACH PARTY MAY BRING DISPUTES AGAINST THE OTHER ONLY IN AN INDIVIDUAL CAPACITY AND NOT AS A PLAINTIFF OR CLASS MEMBER IN ANY PURPORTED CLASS, CONSOLIDATED, REPRESENTATIVE, OR COLLECTIVE ACTION OR PROCEEDING. YOU EXPRESSLY WAIVE ANY RIGHT TO PARTICIPATE IN A CLASS ACTION LAWSUIT OR CLASS-WIDE ARBITRATION AGAINST HOOPLY. THE ARBITRATOR MAY NOT CONSOLIDATE MORE THAN ONE PERSON'S CLAIMS AND MAY NOT PRESIDE OVER ANY FORM OF CLASS OR REPRESENTATIVE PROCEEDING.

17. Force Majeure

Hooply shall not be liable for any failure or delay in the performance of its obligations under these Terms to the extent that such failure or delay is caused by circumstances beyond Hooply's reasonable control, including but not limited to: acts of God, natural disasters, epidemics, pandemics, fire, flood, earthquake, severe weather, war, terrorism, civil unrest, labour disputes, strikes, government actions or orders, embargoes, sanctions, changes in law or regulation, power outages, internet or telecommunications failures, cyberattacks, distributed denial-of-service attacks, failures of third-party service providers or hosting platforms, or any other event or cause beyond Hooply's reasonable control (each a "Force Majeure Event"). During any Force Majeure Event, Hooply's obligations under these Terms shall be suspended for the duration of the event.

18. Governing Law

These Terms and any Dispute arising out of or in connection with these Terms or the Service shall be governed by and construed in accordance with the laws of the Province of British Columbia and the applicable federal laws of Canada, without regard to any conflict of law principles that would require the application of the laws of any other jurisdiction. Subject to the arbitration provisions in Section 15, any legal proceedings that are not subject to arbitration shall be brought exclusively in the courts located in British Columbia, Canada, and you hereby consent to the personal jurisdiction and venue of such courts.

19. Severability

If any provision of these Terms is held to be invalid, illegal, or unenforceable by a court or arbitrator of competent jurisdiction, such provision shall be modified to the minimum extent necessary to make it valid, legal, and enforceable, or if such modification is not possible, shall be severed from these Terms. The invalidity, illegality, or unenforceability of any provision shall not affect the validity or enforceability of any other provision of these Terms, and all remaining provisions shall continue in full force and effect.

20. Entire Agreement

These Terms, together with the Privacy Policy and any other legal notices or policies published by Hooply on the Service, constitute the entire agreement between you and Hooply regarding your use of the Service and supersede all prior and contemporaneous agreements, proposals, representations, warranties, and understandings, whether written or oral, between you and Hooply with respect to the subject matter hereof. No waiver of any provision of these Terms shall be deemed a further or continuing waiver of such provision or any other provision, and Hooply's failure to assert any right or provision under these Terms shall not constitute a waiver of such right or provision.

21. Changes to These Terms

Hooply reserves the right to modify, amend, or replace these Terms at any time, in its sole discretion, with or without prior notice to you. The most current version of these Terms will be posted on the Service with the "Last updated" date. It is your responsibility to review these Terms periodically.
