7.2. People Power may use Third-Party Suppliers for data transport and storage. You acknowledge that storage technologies provided by Third-Party Suppliers may utilize multi-tenancy architecture, where parties not associated with People Power or a Third-Party Supplier may also store or transmit data within the same framework that is used to store or transmit Your data.

Each of these jurisdictions may have unique provisions relating to the privacy of Your data and information.

Accordingly, some of the above limitations and disclaimers may not apply to You. To the extent People Power may not, as a matter of applicable law, disclaim any implied warranty or limit its liabilities, the scope and duration of such warranty and the extent of People Power’s liability will be the minimum permitted under such law.
7.5. NO ACTION, REGARDLESS OF FORM, ARISING OUT OF THIS TERMS OF SERVICE MAY BE BROUGHT BY YOU MORE THAN ONE YEAR AFTER THE CAUSE OF ACTION HAS ACCRUED.

You may not transmit or otherwise export from the United States or allow the transmission of the Services in violation of any restrictions, laws or regulations of the United States Department of Commerce, the United States Department of Treasury Office of Foreign Assets Control, or any other United States or foreign agency or authority.
8.2. You represent and warrant that You are not a person to whom People Power is legally prohibited to provide the Services and/or are not on any governmental list of restricted person or entities, including (i) the Commerce Department's Entity List, Denied Persons List, and Unverified List; (ii) Treasury Department Specially Designated Nationals & Blocked Persons List; and (iii) State Department Debarred Parties List.
8.3. You may not provide access to the Services to any person or entity that would be prohibited from using the Services under this section.
9. General
9.1. People Power shall not be liable for any failure or delay in the performance of its obligations hereunder on account of strikes, terrorist activity, shortages, riots, insurrection, fires, floods, power outages, storms, cybercrime, explosions, war, governmental action, labor conditions, earthquakes, terrorism, supplier bankruptcy or default, failure, delay or interruption by third parties, including without limitation, communications providers, or any other cause which is beyond People Power's reasonable control.
9.2. If any provision of the Terms of Service is found to be unenforceable or invalid, that provision will be limited or eliminated to the minimum extent necessary so that the Terms of Service will otherwise remain in full force and effect and enforceable.
9.3. Your rights and obligations under the Terms of Service are not assignable or transferable and cannot be sub-licensed to another party by You except with People Power's prior written consent. People Power may transfer, assign or subcontract any of its rights and obligations under the Terms of Service without consent.
9.4. The Terms of Service and Privacy Policy are the complete and exclusive statement of the understanding of the parties and supersedes and cancels all previous written and oral agreements, communications and other understandings relating to the subject matter of the Terms of Service. All waivers and modifications of the Terms of Service must be in writing and signed by both parties, except as otherwise provided herein.
9.5. No agency, partnership, joint venture, or employment is created as a result of Your use of People Power. You do not have authority to bind People Power in any respect.
9.6. By accessing or using the Services, You agree: (i) that any and all disputes you may have with, or claims you may have against People Power or its affiliates relating to, arising out of or connected in any way with (a) the Services, (b) these Terms, or (c) the determination of the scope or applicability of this agreement to arbitrate (a “Claim”), will be resolved exclusively by final and binding arbitration in accordance with the Rules of the American Arbitration Association (“AAA Rules”). The arbitration will be heard and determined by a single arbitrator. The arbitrator's decision in any such arbitration will be final and binding upon the parties and may be enforced in any court of competent jurisdiction. The parties agree that the arbitration will be kept confidential and that the existence of the proceeding and any element of it will not be disclosed beyond the arbitration proceedings, except as may be required by applicable law.
If you demonstrate that the costs of arbitration will be prohibitive as compared to the costs of litigation, People Power will pay as much of the administrative costs and arbitrator’s fees required for the arbitration as the arbitrator deems necessary to prevent the cost of the arbitration from being prohibitive. In the final award, the arbitrator may apportion the costs of arbitration and the compensation of the arbitrator among the parties in such amounts as the arbitrator deems appropriate.
This arbitration agreement does not preclude You from seeking action by federal, state, or local government agencies. You and People Power also have the right to bring qualifying claims in small claims court. In addition, You and People Power retain the right to apply to any court of competent jurisdiction for provisional relief, including pre-arbitral attachments or preliminary injunctions, and any such request shall not be deemed incompatible with these Terms, nor a waiver of the right to have disputes submitted to arbitration as provided in these Terms of Use.
Neither you nor People Power may act as a class representative or private attorney general, nor participate as a member of a class of claimants, with respect to any Claim. Claims may not be arbitrated on a class or representative basis. The arbitrator can decide only Your and/or People Power’s individual Claims. The arbitrator may not consolidate or join the claims of other persons or parties who may be similarly situated. If for any reason a claim proceeds in court rather than in arbitration we each waive any right to a jury trial.
THIS SECTION LIMITS CERTAIN RIGHTS, INCLUDING THE RIGHT TO MAINTAIN A COURT ACTION, THE RIGHT TO A JURY TRIAL, THE RIGHT TO PARTICIPATE IN ANY FORM OF CLASS OR REPRESENTATIVE CLAIM, THE RIGHT TO ENGAGE IN DISCOVERY EXCEPT AS PROVIDED IN AAA RULES, AND THE RIGHT TO CERTAIN REMEDIES AND FORMS OF RELIEF. OTHER RIGHTS THAT YOU OR PEOPLE POWER WOULD HAVE IN COURT ALSO MAY NOT BE AVAILABLE IN ARBITRATION. If any provision of this Section is found to be invalid or unenforceable, then that specific provision shall be of no force and effect and shall be severed, but the remainder of this Section will continue in full force and effect. This Section of these Terms will survive the termination of Your relationship with People Power.
9.7. The Terms of Service shall be governed by the laws of the State of California, without regard to its conflict of laws provisions. For purposes of jurisdiction over a claim under this Terms of Service, Your data is presumed to have resided or to have been transmitted exclusively within the state of California. Any action or proceeding arising out of or related to the Terms of Service may only be brought in the state or federal courts in California and exclusive venue shall be in the Court having jurisdiction over Santa Clara County, CA. Each party hereby consents to the exclusive jurisdiction of such courts with respect thereto. English is the governing language for: (i) People Power; (ii) Your People Power account; (iii) the Terms of Service; (iv) negotiations related to the Terms of Service or Your use of People Power and (v) the resolution of disputes related to the Terms of Service or Your use of People Power, including negotiations, litigation, mediation or arbitration.
