7. GOVERNING LAW

8. DISPUTE RESOLUTION

8.1 Informal negotiations

To expedite resolution and control the cost of any dispute, controversy, or claim related to these Terms (each a “Dispute" and collectively, the “Disputes") brought by either you or us (individually, a “Party" and collectively, the “Parties"), the Parties agree to first attempt to negotiate any Dispute (except those Disputes expressly provided below) informally for at least thirty (30) days before initiating the arbitration. Such informal negotiations commence upon written notice from one Party to the other Party.

8.2 Binding Arbitration

If a Party is unable to resolve a Dispute through informal negotiations, the Disputes (except those Disputes expressly excluded below) will be finally and exclusively resolved by binding arbitration. YOU UNDERSTAND THAT WITHOUT THIS PROVISION, YOU WOULD HAVE THE RIGHT TO SUE IN COURT AND HAVE A JURY TRIAL. The arbitration shall be commenced and conducted under the Commercial Arbitration Rules of the American Arbitration Association (“AAA") and, where appropriate, the AAA's Supplementary Procedures for Consumer-Related Disputes (“AAA Consumer Rules"), both of which are available at the AAA website www.adr.org. Your arbitration fees and your share of arbitration compensation shall be governed by the AAA Consumer Rules and, where appropriate, limited by the AAA Consumer Rules. Except where otherwise required by the applicable AAA rules or applicable law, the arbitration shall take place in Chicago, Illinois. Except as otherwise provided herein, the Parties may litigate in court to compel arbitration, stay proceedings pending arbitration, or to confirm, modify, vacate, or enter judgment on the award entered by the arbitrator.

If for any reason, a Dispute proceeds in court rather than arbitration, the Dispute shall be commenced or prosecuted in the state and federal courts located in Chicago, Illinois (U.S.A.), and the Parties hereby consent to and waive all defenses of lack of personal jurisdiction, and forum non-conveniens with respect to venue and jurisdiction in such state and federal courts.

In no event shall any Dispute brought by either Party related in any way to the Site and the Smart Contracts be commenced more than one (1) year after the cause of the action arose. If this provision is found to be illegal or unenforceable, then neither Party will elect to arbitrate any Dispute falling within that portion of this provision found to be illegal or unenforceable and such Dispute shall be decided by a court of competent jurisdiction within the courts listed or jurisdiction above, and the Parties agree to submit to the personal jurisdiction of that court.

8.3 Exceptions to the Informal Negotiations and Arbitration

The Parties agree that the following Disputes are not subject to the above provision concerning informal negotiations and binding arbitration: (a) any Dispute seeking to enforce or protect, or concerning the validity of, and of the intellectual property rights of a Party, (b) any Dispute related to, or arising from, allegations of theft, piracy, invasion of privacy, or unauthorized use; and (c) any claim for injunctive relief. If this provision is found to be illegal and unenforceable, then neither Party will elect to arbitrate any Dispute falling within that portion of this provision found to be illegal or unenforceable, and such Dispute shall be decided by a court of competent jurisdiction within the courts listed or jurisdiction above, and the Parties agree to submit to the personal jurisdiction of that court.

11. ASSUMPTION OF RISK

You accept and acknowledge each of the following:

1. The prices of blockchain assets are extremely volatile.

We cannot guarantee that any purchasers of $EARNFT coins will not lose money.
2. You are solely responsible for determining what, if any, taxes apply to your EARNFT-related transactions. EARNFT Network is not responsible for determining the taxes that apply to your transactions.
3. The regulatory regime governing blockchain technologies, cryptocurrencies, and tokens is uncertain, and new regulations or policies may materially adversely affect the development of the EARNFT ecosystem, and therefore the potential utility or value of $EARNFT coins.
4. Upgrades to the EARNFT Network may have unintended, adverse effects on all EARNFT Network assets.

14. MISCELLANEOUS

These Terms and any policies or operating rules posted by us on the Site and the Smart Contracts, or in respect to the Site and the Smart Contracts constitute the entire agreement and understanding between you and us.

We shall not be responsible or liable for any loss, damage, delay, or failure to act caused by any cause beyond our reasonable control.
