Sections relating to intellectual property, disclaimers, limitations of liability, indemnification, and dispute resolution shall survive any termination of these Terms.

We do not warrant that the Service will be uninterrupted, timely, secure, or error-free; that the results obtained from the Service will be accurate or reliable; or that any errors in the Service will be corrected. Your use of the Service is at your sole risk.

Our total liability for any claims arising out of or relating to these Terms or the Service shall not exceed the greater of (a) the amounts you paid to us in the twelve (12) months preceding the claim, or (b) one hundred U.S. dollars ($100).

Some jurisdictions do not allow the exclusion or limitation of certain damages, so some of the above limitations may not apply to you. In such cases, our liability will be limited to the fullest extent permitted by applicable law.

You agree to indemnify, defend, and hold harmless Slima, its affiliates, officers, directors, employees, agents, and licensors from and against any and all claims, damages, obligations, losses, liabilities, costs, and expenses (including reasonable attorneys' fees) arising from: (a) your use of the Service; (b) your User Content; (c) your violation of these Terms; or (d) your violation of any rights of a third party.

Before initiating any formal dispute resolution proceeding, you agree to first contact us at [email protected] and attempt to resolve the dispute informally for at least 30 days.

Any dispute, controversy, or claim arising out of or relating to these Terms or the Service that cannot be resolved informally shall be resolved by binding arbitration administered by the American Arbitration Association ("AAA") in accordance with its Commercial Arbitration Rules. The arbitration shall be conducted in English and held in Wilmington, Delaware, unless the parties agree otherwise.

YOU AND SLIMA AGREE THAT EACH MAY BRING CLAIMS AGAINST THE OTHER ONLY IN YOUR OR ITS INDIVIDUAL CAPACITY AND NOT AS A PLAINTIFF OR CLASS MEMBER IN ANY PURPORTED CLASS, CONSOLIDATED, OR REPRESENTATIVE PROCEEDING.

We reserve the right to modify these Terms at any time in our sole discretion. When we make material changes, we will update the "Last Updated" date at the top of these Terms.

We will provide notice of material changes through the Service interface, by email to the address associated with your account, or by other reasonable means. Your continued use of the Service after such notice constitutes your acceptance of the modified Terms. If you do not agree to the modified Terms, you must discontinue use of the Service.

These Terms shall be governed by and construed in accordance with the laws of the State of Delaware, United States, without regard to its conflict of law principles. Subject to the arbitration provisions above, you consent to the exclusive jurisdiction and venue of the state and federal courts located in Delaware for any disputes not subject to arbitration.

These Terms, together with our Privacy Policy and any other agreements expressly incorporated by reference, constitute the entire agreement between you and Slima concerning the Service and supersede all prior agreements, understandings, negotiations, and discussions, whether oral or written.

Our failure to enforce any right or provision of these Terms shall not constitute a waiver of such right or provision. Any waiver must be in writing and signed by an authorized representative of Slima.

If any provision of these Terms is held to be invalid or unenforceable, such provision shall be modified to the minimum extent necessary to make it valid and enforceable, and the remaining provisions shall continue in full force and effect.

You may not assign or transfer these Terms or your rights hereunder without our prior written consent. We may assign these Terms without restriction. Subject to the foregoing, these Terms shall bind and inure to the benefit of the parties and their respective successors and permitted assigns.
