• Any disputes or issues between you and any third party (including other users or Third-Party Service providers like PayPal).
• Your gross negligence or willful misconduct.

ifates.net reserves the right, at its own expense, to assume the exclusive defense and control of any matter otherwise subject to indemnification by you (without limiting your indemnification obligations with respect to that matter), and in such case, you agree to cooperate with our defense of that claim. You agree not to settle any matter for which you have an indemnification obligation without the prior written consent of ifates.net.

This indemnification obligation will survive the termination or expiration of these Terms and your use of the Services.

Governing Law and How We Resolve Disputes

These Terms of Use and your use of the Website and Services, and any dispute arising out of or related thereto, shall be governed by and construed in accordance with the laws of [**Specify Jurisdiction Here – e.g., “the State of Delaware, USA,” or the primary location of ifates.net’s operations. This is a critical legal decision.**], without giving effect to any choice or conflict of law provision or rule (whether of [**Same Jurisdiction**] or any other jurisdiction) that would cause the application of the laws of any jurisdiction other than those of [**Same Jurisdiction**].

You and ifates.net agree that the United Nations Convention on Contracts for the International Sale of Goods does not apply to the interpretation or construction of these Terms.

Informal Dispute Resolution:

We want to address your concerns without needing a formal legal case. Before filing a claim against ifates.net, you agree to try to resolve the dispute informally by contacting us first at contact.ifates@gmail.com. Please provide a clear description of the dispute and your proposed resolution. We will attempt to resolve the dispute through good faith negotiation within thirty (30) days from the date your notice is received. If we are unable to resolve the dispute informally within this timeframe, either party may pursue further legal action as outlined below.

Binding Arbitration (Consider if appropriate for ifates.net):

[This is a common clause, but requires careful consideration. Consult legal counsel. If you choose arbitration, specify the rules, e.g., AAA, JAMS, and the location.]

If a dispute cannot be resolved informally, you and ifates.net agree that any and all disputes, claims, or controversies arising out of or relating to these Terms, the breach, termination, enforcement, interpretation, or validity thereof, or the use of the Services (collectively, “Disputes”) SHALL BE RESOLVED BY BINDING ARBITRATION, RATHER THAN IN COURT, except that (1) you may assert claims in small claims court if your claims qualify, so long as the matter remains in such court and advances only on an individual (non-class, non-representative) basis; and (2) ifates.net may seek injunctive or other equitable relief in a court of competent jurisdiction to prevent the actual or threatened infringement, misappropriation, or violation of our copyrights, trademarks, trade secrets, patents, or other intellectual property rights.

The arbitration will be administered by [**Specify Arbitration Body, e.g., the American Arbitration Association (“AAA”)**] in accordance with its [**Specify Rules, e.g., Commercial Arbitration Rules and the Supplementary Procedures for Consumer Related Disputes**] then in effect, except as modified by this “Dispute Resolution” section. The arbitration will be conducted in [**Specify Location, e.g., a mutually agreed location or the city where ifates.net is based**], unless you and ifates.net agree otherwise. The arbitrator’s decision will be final and binding, and judgment on the award rendered by the arbitrator may be entered in any court having jurisdiction thereof.

Waiver of Jury Trial and Class Actions:

YOU AND IFATES.NET AGREE THAT EACH MAY BRING CLAIMS AGAINST THE OTHER ONLY IN YOUR OR ITS INDIVIDUAL CAPACITY, AND NOT AS A PLAINTIFF OR CLASS MEMBER IN ANY PURPORTED CLASS ACTION, COLLECTIVE ACTION, PRIVATE ATTORNEY GENERAL ACTION, OR OTHER REPRESENTATIVE PROCEEDING. FURTHER, UNLESS BOTH YOU AND IFATES.NET AGREE OTHERWISE, 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.

IF FOR ANY REASON A CLAIM PROCEEDS IN COURT RATHER THAN IN ARBITRATION, YOU AND IFATES.NET EACH WAIVE ANY RIGHT TO A JURY TRIAL.

Jurisdiction for Court Proceedings (If Arbitration is Not Used or Not Applicable):

Unless you and ifates.net agree otherwise, in the event that the agreement to arbitrate above is found not to apply to you or to a particular claim or dispute, you agree that any judicial proceeding will be brought in the federal or state courts located in [**Specify County and State corresponding to the Governing Law jurisdiction**]. Both you and ifates.net consent to venue and personal jurisdiction there.

Limitation on Time to File Claims:

ANY CAUSE OF ACTION OR CLAIM YOU MAY HAVE ARISING OUT OF OR RELATING TO THESE TERMS OF USE OR THE WEBSITE MUST BE COMMENCED WITHIN ONE (1) YEAR AFTER THE CAUSE OF ACTION ACCRUES; OTHERWISE, SUCH CAUSE OF ACTION OR CLAIM IS PERMANENTLY BARRED.
