13. Disclaimer; No Warranties

The Service is provided “as is” and Sbam gives you no warranty with respect to it. Service features that interoperate with social networks depend on the availability and functionality of their APIs. If any social network ceases to provide the required data on reasonable terms for the Service, Sbam may cease providing such features upon reasonable prior written notice to you.

No advice or information, whether oral or written, obtained by you from Sbam or through the Service will create any warranty that is not expressly stated in these terms.

No conditions, warranties or other terms (including any implied terms as to satisfactory quality, fitness for purpose or conformance with description) apply to the Services except to the extent that they are expressly set out in the Terms.

14. Limitation of Liability

To the maximum extent permitted by applicable law, whatever the legal basis for the claim, Sbam will not be liable for any indirect damages (including, without limitation, special, incidental, or consequential damages of any kind whatsoever (including, without limitation, attorneys’ fees), damages for lost profits or revenues, business interruption, or loss of business information) due to, resulting from, or arising in connection with these Terms, the Service, Materials, or the failure to perform our obligations. 

Each provision of these terms that provides for a limitation of liability, disclaimer of warranties, or exclusion of damages is intended to and does allocate the risks between the parties under these terms. This allocation is an essential element of the basis of the bargain between the parties. Each of these provisions is severable and independent of all other provisions of these terms. The limitations in this section 14 will apply even if any limited remedy fails of its essential purpose.

15. Dispute Resolution and Arbitration

15.1 Generally

In the interest of resolving disputes between you and Sbam in the most expedient and cost effective manner, and except as described in Section 15.2, you and Sbam agree that every dispute arising in connection with these Terms will be resolved by binding arbitration. Arbitration is less formal than a lawsuit in court. Arbitration uses a neutral arbitrator instead of a judge or jury, may allow for more limited discovery than in court, and can be subject to very limited review by courts. Arbitrators can award the same damages and relief that a court can award. This agreement to arbitrate disputes includes all claims arising out of or relating to any aspect of these Terms, whether based in contract, tort, statute, fraud, misrepresentation, or any other legal theory, and regardless of whether a claim arises during or after the termination of these Terms. 

15.2 Exceptions

Despite the provisions of Section 15.1, nothing in these Terms will be deemed to waive, preclude, or otherwise limit the right of either party to: 

(a) bring an individual action in small claims court; 

(b) pursue an enforcement action through the applicable law; 

(c) seek injunctive relief in a court of law in aid of arbitration;

(d) to file suit in a court of law to address an intellectual property infringement claim.

15.3 Arbitrator

Any arbitration between you and Buffer will be settled under the Chamber of Commerce of Turin

15.4 Notice of Arbitration; Process

The process must be compliant to the applicable law.

15.5 Modifications to this Arbitration Provision

If Sbam makes any future change to this arbitration provision, other than a change to Sbam’s address, you may reject the change by sending us written notice within 30 days of the change to Sbam’s address for Notice of Arbitration, in which case your account with Sbam will be immediately terminated and this arbitration provision, as in effect immediately prior to the changes you rejected will survive.

15.5 Enforceability

If Section 15.5 is found to be unenforceable or if the entirety of this Section 15 is found to be unenforceable, then the entirety of this Section 15 will be null and void and, in that case, the parties agree that the exclusive jurisdiction and venue described in Section 16. will govern any action arising out of or related to these Terms.

16. General Terms

These Terms, together with the Privacy Policy and any other agreements expressly incorporated by reference into these Terms, are the entire and exclusive understanding and agreement between you and Sbam regarding your use of the Service. 

You may not assign or transfer these Terms or your rights under these Terms, in whole or in part, by operation of law or otherwise, without our prior written consent. 

The failure to require performance of any provision will not affect our right to require performance at any other time after that, nor will a waiver by us of any breach or default of these Terms, or any provision of these Terms, be a waiver of any subsequent breach or default or a waiver of the provision itself.

Throughout these Terms the use of the word “including” means “including but not limited to”.

If any part of these Terms is held to be invalid or unenforceable, the unenforceable part will be given effect to the greatest extent possible, and the remaining parts will remain in full force and effect.

17.1 Governing Law

These Terms are governed by the laws of the Italian Republic within regard to conflict of European law principles. You and Sbam submit to the personal and exclusive jurisdiction of the state courts located within Turin, for resolution of any lawsuit or court proceeding permitted under these Terms.

17.2 Consent to Electronic Communications
