5. Payment and Cancellation of Service

   1. Pricing. TradersPost may offer free access to the Platform, subject to the terms of TradersPost’s then-current Pricing Plans. TradersPost may change listed prices at any time, including changing from a free service to a paid service and charging for access to or use of the Platform that was previously offered free of charge; provided, however, that TradersPost will provide User with prior notice and an opportunity to terminate this Agreement if TradersPost changes the price of a service to which User is subscribed and will not charge User for a previously free service unless User has been notified of the applicable fees and agreed to pay such fees.
   2. Taxes. User shall pay when due (and TradersPost at its discretion may collect and pay on User’s behalf) all taxes, levies, or assessments based on or in any way measured by this Agreement, the Platform, and the services provided hereunder, excluding taxes based on TradersPost’s net income, but including sales and use taxes and personal property taxes, if any.
   3. Payment. Amounts due hereunder shall be paid in the manner established during Registration or as subsequently established by access to User’s Registration through the Platform. If applicable, User authorizes TradersPost to charge or debit automatically, using User’s selected payment method, all such amounts. User is responsible for providing to TradersPost and maintaining through the Registration complete and accurate billing and contact information. All TradersPost subscriptions are billed on a recurring monthly or annual basis. User will be automatically billed each month or year until User manually cancel the subscription. TradersPost does not offer refunds, returns, or other credits for any payments, including for partial or unused months of a subscription. If purchasing a subscription from TradersPost for the first time, please make sure that the subscription is correct before proceeding. If User changes to a different plan, remaining days are converted into an equivalent value of days on the new subscription. TradersPost does not offer refunds for any automatic recurring payments. If User has been billed for automatic renewal of the subscription, User may cancel the subscription to avoid billing for the next renewal date.
   4. Cancellations. User is responsible for canceling his or her own subscription. However, cancellations may only be submitted to TradersPost via methods designed by TradersPost; contacting TradersPost support via email or phone asking for a subscription to be cancelled is not considered cancellation. User may cancel the subscription at any time by logging into User’s account and accessing the Billing section of the account. If User cancels the subscription before the renewal date, User’s service will remain active until the renewal date passes. If no payment is received after the renewal date, User’s paid subscription will be stopped and moved to a free plan, subject to the terms of TradersPost’s then-current Pricing Plans.

16. Confidentiality

    1. “Confidential Information” means any information of any type in any form that (i) is disclosed to or observed or obtained by one party from the other party (or from a person the recipient knows or reasonably should assume has an obligation of confidence to the other party) in the course of, or by virtue of, this Agreement and (ii) either is designated as confidential or proprietary in writing at the time of such disclosure or within a reasonable time thereafter (or, if disclosure is made orally or by observation, is designated as confidential or proprietary orally by the person disclosing or allowing observation of the information) or is of a nature that the recipient knew or reasonably should have known, under the circumstances, would be regarded by the owner of the information as confidential or proprietary. Without limiting any other provisions of this Agreement, and whether or not otherwise meeting the criteria described herein, the Platform and Documentation shall be deemed conclusively to be Confidential Information. For purposes of this Agreement, however, the term “Confidential Information” specifically shall not include any portion of the foregoing that (i) was in the recipient’s possession or knowledge at the time of disclosure and that was not acquired directly or indirectly from the other party, (ii) was disclosed to the recipient by a third party not having an obligation of confidence of the information to any person or body of which the recipient knew or which, under the circumstances, the recipient reasonably should have assumed to exist, or (iii) is or, other than by the act or omission of the recipient, becomes a part of the public domain not under seal by a court of competent jurisdiction. A selection or combination of information will not meet any of the foregoing exceptions solely because some or all of its individual component parts are so excepted and will meet such exception(s) only if the selection or combination itself is so excepted. In the event of any ambiguity as to whether information is Confidential Information, the foregoing shall be interpreted strictly and there shall be a rebuttable presumption that such information is Confidential Information.
    2. Security of Confidential Information. In addition to any other restrictions or obligations imposed at law or provided under this Agreement, each party possessing Confidential Information of the other party will maintain all such Confidential Information under reasonably secure conditions, using the same security procedures used by such party for the protection of its own Confidential Information of a similar kind and in any event not less than reasonable security measures.
    3. Non-Disclosure Obligation. Except as otherwise may be permitted by this Agreement, neither party shall disclose any Confidential Information of the other party to any third party without the express prior written consent of the other party; provided, however, that either party may disclose appropriate portions of Confidential Information of the other party to those of its employees, contractors, agents, and professional advisors having a substantial need to know the specific information in question in connection with such party’s exercise of rights or performance of obligations under this Agreement provided that all such persons (i) have been instructed that such Confidential Information is subject to the obligation of confidence set forth by this Agreement and (ii) are bound by contract, employment policies, or fiduciary or professional ethical obligation to maintain such information in confidence.
    4. Compelled Disclosure. If either party is ordered by a court, administrative agency, or other governmental body of competent jurisdiction to disclose Confidential Information, or if it is served with or otherwise becomes aware of a motion or similar request that such an order be issued, then such party will not be liable to the other party for disclosure of Confidential Information required by such order if such party complies with the following requirements: (i) if an already-issued order calls for immediate disclosure, then such party immediately shall move for or otherwise request a stay of such order to permit the other party to respond as set forth in this paragraph; (ii) such party immediately shall notify the other party of the motion or order by the most expeditious possible means; (iii) such party shall not oppose a motion or similar request by the other party for an order protecting the confidentiality of the Confidential Information, including not opposing a motion for leave to intervene by the other party; and (iv) such party shall exercise reasonable efforts to obtain appropriate assurance that confidential treatment will be accorded the Confidential Information so disclosed.
    5. Post-Termination Procedures. Except as otherwise expressly provided in this Agreement, promptly upon the expiration or any termination of this Agreement or other expiration or termination of a party’s right to possess and/or use Confidential Information, each party shall turn over to the other party (or destroy and certify the same in writing, if agreed in writing by the other party) any embodiments of any Confidential Information of the other party.

17. Arbitration. All disputes, controversies, or claims arising out of, relating to, or regarding this Agreement, including the breach, termination, or validity thereof, shall be determined pursuant to arbitration on the following terms, namely:

    1. If you and TradersPost are unable to resolve a dispute (a “Dispute”) through informal negotiations, the Dispute (except where explicitly prohibited by applicable law) will be finally and exclusively resolved by binding arbitration. 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. You and TradersPost shall equally share the cost of the arbitration, but each party shall be responsible for its own attorney’s fees. The arbitration may be conducted in person at mutually agreed upon location, or virtually through the submission of documents, by phone, or online. The arbitrator will make a decision in writing, but need not provide a statement of reasons unless requested by either party. The arbitrator must follow applicable law, and any award may be challenged if the arbitrator fails to do so. 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.

       In no event shall any Dispute brought by either party be commenced more than 2 years after the cause of 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 of TradersPost’s home state, and the parties agree to submit to the personal jurisdiction of that court.

       The parties agree that any arbitration shall be limited to the Dispute between the parties individually. To the full extent permitted by law, (a) no arbitration shall be joined with any other proceeding; (b) there is no right or authority for any Dispute to be arbitrated on a class-action basis or to utilize class action procedures; and (c) there is no right or authority for any Dispute to be brought in a purported representative capacity on behalf of the general public or any other persons.

    2. The party desiring arbitration shall nominate one arbitrator and shall notify the other parties of such nomination. Such other parties shall within ten (10) days after receiving such notice, nominate an arbitrator and the two arbitrators shall select a chairman of the arbitral tribunal to act jointly with them. If the arbitrators shall be unable to agree in the selection of such chairman, the chairman shall be designated by a Judge of the applicable jurisdiction upon an application by any party;
    3. If the parties hereto receiving the notice of the nomination of any arbitrator by the party desiring arbitration fail within the said ten (10) days to oppose the nomination of said arbitrator, the nominated arbitrator shall be performed as the arbitrator for the purposes of arbitration under this Agreement. The arbitrator nominated by the party desiring arbitration may proceed alone to determine the dispute in such manner and at such time as he shall think fit and his decision shall, subject to the provisions hereof, be binding upon the parties; and
    4. Notwithstanding the foregoing, any arbitration may be carried out by a single arbitrator if the parties hereto so agree, in writing. In this event, the provisions of this paragraph shall apply mutatis mutandis; to the single arbitrator.
    5. The parties agree to keep confidential the existence of the arbitration, the arbitral proceedings, the submissions made by the parties and the decisions made by the arbitral tribunal, including its awards to the extent not already in the public domain, except in judicial proceedings related to the award or where required by applicable law.

18. Other Provisions

    1. Amendments; Waiver. Except as otherwise expressly provided herein, no modification or amendment to this Agreement will be valid or binding unless in writing and duly executed by the party or parties to be bound thereby. The failure of either party at any time to require performance by the other party of any provision of this Agreement shall in no way affect the right of such party to require performance of that provision. Any waiver by either party of any breach of this Agreement shall not be construed as a waiver of any continuing or succeeding breach of such provision, a waiver of the provision itself, or a waiver of any right under this Agreement.
    2. Entire Agreement. This Agreement constitutes the entire agreement between the parties concerning the subject matter hereof. This Agreement supersedes all prior or contemporaneous agreements, representations, warranties, inducements, promises, and understandings with respect to the Platform, the content, products or services provided by or through TradersPost, and the subject matter of this Agreement. Each party represents and warrants that, in entering into and performing its obligations under this Agreement, it does not and will not rely on any promise, inducement, or representation allegedly made by or on behalf of the other party with respect to the subject matter hereof, nor on any course of dealing or custom and usage in the trade, except as such promise, inducement, or representation may be expressly set forth herein.
    3. Assignment. TradersPost may transfer, assign, sub-contract or otherwise deal with our rights and/or obligations under this Agreement. User may not transfer or assign this Agreement or User’s rights or obligations thereunder.
    4. Severability. If a provision of this Agreement is determined by any court or other competent authority to be unlawful and/or unenforceable, then the invalid or unenforceable provision will be removed from the Agreement, and the other provisions will continue in effect. If any unlawful and/or unenforceable provisions would be lawful or enforceable if part of it were deleted, that part will be deemed to be deleted, and the rest of the provision will continue in effect. A valid and enforceable provision that approximates the intent of the invalid or enforceable provision as closely as possible shall be substituted for the invalid or unenforceable provision.
    5. Governing Law. The laws applicable to the interpretation of this Agreement shall be the laws of the State of Tennessee and applicable federal law, without regard to any conflict of laws rules thereof. Any claims or actions regarding or arising out of this Agreement, if permitted notwithstanding the arbitration requirements, must be brought exclusively in a state or federal court of competent jurisdiction sitting in Sumner County, Tennessee. We make no representation that the Platform is appropriate for access outside of the United States and accessing it from jurisdictions where it is illegal is prohibited.
    6. Notice. Except as otherwise expressly provided herein, notices shall be given under this Agreement in writing in the English language, signed by the party giving the same, and shall be given (i) personally (in which case such notices shall be deemed given when so delivered), (ii) by certified or registered U.S. Mail, properly addressed and postage pre-paid, from within the United States (in which case such notices shall be deemed given on the third business day after deposit), (iii) by generally recognized overnight courier, properly addressed and pre-paid, with next business day instruction (in which case such notices shall be deemed given on the next business day after deposit), or (iv) for TradersPost, by e-mail (in which case such notice shall be deemed given upon transmission unless the party giving notice receives a non-delivery email message within a reasonable time thereafter). Such notices shall be sent to TradersPost at [email protected], and to User at the address for notices or email address designated in the Registration. Either party may change its address for purposes of notice by written notice thereof to the other party.
    7. Nature of Relationship. TradersPost shall provide all services hereunder as an independent contractor to User. Subject to the provisions of this Agreement, TradersPost may perform its obligations hereunder through its employees and through subcontractors. Nothing contained herein shall be deemed to create any agency, partnership, joint venture, or other relationship between the parties or any of their Affiliates, and neither party shall have the right, power, or authority under this Agreement to create any duty or obligation on behalf of the other party.
    8. Force Majeure. Neither party shall be liable for any failure to perform its obligations under this Agreement if such failure arises, directly or indirectly, out of causes reasonably beyond the direct control of such party and not due to such party’s own fault or negligence or that of its contractors or representatives or other persons acting on its behalf, and which cannot be overcome by the exercise of due diligence and which could not have been prevented through commercially reasonable measures, including acts of God, acts of terrorists or criminals, acts of domestic or foreign governments, changes in any law or regulation, fires, floods, explosions, epidemics, pandemics, disruptions in communications, power, or other utilities, strikes or other labor problems, riots, or unavailability of supplies.
    9. Successors and Assigns. This Agreement will be binding upon and inure to the benefit of the parties and their successors and assigns permitted by this Agreement.
    10. Injunctive Relief. Each party acknowledges that any violation of its covenants in this Agreement relating to the other party’s Confidential Information and intellectual property would result in damage to such party that is largely intangible but nonetheless real and that is incapable of complete remedy by an award of damages. Accordingly, any such violation shall give such party the right to an injunction or other appropriate order to enforce specifically those covenants without bond and without prejudice to any other rights or remedies to which such party may be entitled as a result of a breach of this Agreement.
    11. No Third-Party Beneficiaries. Except as otherwise expressly set forth herein, nothing in this Agreement is intended to confer, nor shall anything herein confer, upon any person other than the parties and the respective successors or assigns of the parties, any rights, remedies, obligations, or liabilities whatsoever.
    12. Survival. All sections of this Agreement which by their nature should survive termination will survive termination, including, without limitation, accrued rights to payment, confidentiality obligations, warranty disclaimers, indemnification, and limitations of liability.
