You acknowledge and agree that:

These Terms are concluded between you and Career Start, and not with Apple Inc. (hereinafter, Apple), and that Career Start, not Apple, is solely responsible for the App and the content thereof.
To the extent you obtain an App from the Apple App Store, any licenses granted hereunder for the use of the App are limited to a license to use the App on any Apple-Platformed Products that you own or control and as permitted by the Usage Rules set forth in the App Store Terms of Use, except that the App may be accessed and used by other accounts associated with you via Family Sharing or volume purchasing.
Apple has no obligation to furnish any maintenance and support services with respect to the App.
In the event of any failure of the App to conform to any applicable warranty, you may notify Apple, and Apple will refund the purchase price, if any, for the App to you; to the maximum extent permitted by applicable law, Apple will have no other warranty obligation whatsoever with respect to the App, and any other claims, losses, liabilities, damages, costs, or expenses attributable to any failure to conform to any warranty will be the sole responsibility of Career Start in accordance with these Terms of Use.

You must also comply with all applicable third-party terms of agreement when using the App.

Miscellaneous

Waiver. No waiver of a breach of any term of the Terms of Use by us will be effective unless in writing and duly executed by Career Start. No such waiver will constitute a waiver of any subsequent breach of the same or any other term of the Terms of Use. No failure on the part of Career Start to exercise, and no delay in exercising, any of our rights hereunder will operate as a waiver thereof, nor will any single or partial exercise by Career Start of any right preclude any other or future exercise thereof or the exercise of any other right. No course of dealing between the parties will be deemed effective to modify, amend, or discharge any part of the Terms of Use or the rights or obligations of any party hereunder.

Entire Agreement. Except for the Privacy Policy, the Terms of Use contain the entire understanding of the parties with respect to use of the Services and supersede any prior agreements or understandings among the parties with respect to the subject matter hereof. There are no representations, warranties, or obligations of any party not expressly contained herein.

Third Party Beneficiaries; No Relationship. Apple Inc. (if you have downloaded the App from the Apple App Store or are using the App on an iOS device) or Google, Inc. (if you have downloaded the App from the Google Play Store or are using the App on an Android OS device) will be a third-party beneficiary to this contract and that, upon your acceptance of these Terms of Use, each third-party beneficiary will have the right (and will be deemed to have accepted the right) to enforce these Terms of Use against you as a third-party beneficiary thereof. These third-party beneficiaries are not parties to the Terms of Use and are not responsible for the provision or support of the Services in any manner. Your access to the Services using these devices is subject to terms set forth in the applicable third-party beneficiary’s terms of services. Except as otherwise expressly provided in the Terms of Use, there shall be no third-party beneficiaries to the Terms of Use. You agree that no agency, partnership, joint venture, employee-employer, or franchisor-franchisee relationship is intended or created by these Terms of Use.

Assignment. You may not assign your rights under these Terms of Use, but we may assign our rights in these Terms of Use without restriction.

Governing Law and Dispute Resolution. THESE TERMS OF USE SHALL BE GOVERNED BY THE LAWS OF THE STATE OF NEW YORK, WITHOUT REFERENCE TO CONFLICT OF LAWS PRINCIPLES. ANY DISPUTE, CONTROVERSY OR CLAIM ARISING OUT OF, RELATING TO OR IN CONNECTION WITH THIS CONTRACT, INCLUDING THE BREACH, TERMINATION OR VALIDITY THEREOF, SHALL BE FINALLY RESOLVED BY BINDING ARBITRATION ADMINISTERED BY THE AMERICAN ARBITRATION ASSOCIATION (THE “AAA”). THE ARBITRATION WILL TAKE PLACE IN ROCHESTER, NEW YORK. YOU AND CAREER START SHALL SELECT JOINTLY ONE ARBITRATOR FROM A PANEL OF ARBITRATORS SUBMITTED TO THE PARTIES BY AAA WHO HAVE, TO THE FULLEST EXTENT POSSIBLE, EXPERIENCE WITH AND KNOWLEDGE OF THE RELEVANT INDUSTRY. IF THE PARTIES ARE UNABLE TO SELECT JOINTLY AN ARBITRATOR, THE AAA SHALL APPOINT THE ARBITRATOR. THE ARBITRATOR SHALL HAVE THE POWER TO RULE ON ANY CHALLENGE TO ITS OWN JURISDICTION OR TO THE VALIDITY OR ENFORCEABILITY OF ANY PORTION OF THE AGREEMENT TO ARBITRATE. YOU AND CAREER START AGREE TO ARBITRATE SOLELY ON AN INDIVIDUAL BASIS, AND THAT THE TERMS OF USE DO NOT PERMIT CLASS ARBITRATION OR ANY CLAIMS BROUGHT AS A PLAINTIFF OR CLASS MEMBER IN ANY CLASS OR REPRESENTATIVE ARBITRATION PROCEEDING. THE ARBITRATOR MAY NOT CONSOLIDATE MORE THAN ONE PERSON’S CLAIMS, AND MAY NOT OTHERWISE PRESIDE OVER ANY FORM OF A REPRESENTATIVE OR CLASS PROCEEDING. IN THE EVENT THE PROHIBITION ON CLASS ARBITRATION IS DEEMED INVALID OR UNENFORCEABLE, THEN THE REMAINING PORTIONS OF THE ARBITRATION AGREEMENT WILL REMAIN IN FORCE.

Limitations. YOU AND CAREER START AGREE THAT ANY CAUSE OF ACTION AGAINST CAREER START ARISING OUT OF YOUR USE OF OR RELATING TO THE SERVICES, EXCLUDING EMPLOYMENT-RELATED CAUSES OF ACTION, MUST BE COMMENCED WITHIN ONE YEAR AFTER THE CAUSE OF ACTION ACCRUES. OTHERWISE, SUCH CAUSE OF ACTION IS PERMANENTLY BARRED.

Partial Invalidity. If any provision of the Terms of Use is held invalid or unenforceable by a competent authority, that provision will be construed so as to be limited or reduced to be enforceable to the maximum extent compatible with the law as it shall then appear. The total invalidity or unenforceability of any particular provision of the Terms of Use will not affect its other provisions and the Terms of Use will be construed in all respects as if the invalid or unenforceable provision were omitted.

Terms of Use Violations. Please report any violations of the Terms of Use to our support staff immediately.
