Provider Payments shall be issued within 30 days after the date that the Provider Services were provided to Customer. Without limiting the foregoing, GoodFriend reserves the right to extend the period in which it issues refunds to Customers, in which case Provider shall not receive Provider Payments until such refunds are processed by GoodFriend. GoodFriend expressly reserves the right to withhold Provider Payments in whole or in part if it suspects that Provider has violated this Agreement, or any applicable law, rule, or regulation (including rules established by payment processor, banks, and card brands), or if GoodFriend suspects or determines that Provider or any third party under Provider’s reasonable control engaged in fraud, as determined by GoodFriend in its sole discretion.

Provider acknowledges and agrees that GoodFriend’s cancellation, rescheduling, and refund policies shall be established and administered by GoodFriend at GoodFriend’s sole discretion, and GoodFriend reserves the right to extend or modify such policies if it believes, in its sole discretion, that such extension or modification is appropriate or necessary for customer service, risk reduction, or compliance purposes. If Provider or Provider’s personnel receives a cancellation or refund request, Provider shall contact GoodFriend and not provide a refund directly or take any other responsive action, unless GoodFriend provides written instructions to the contrary. GoodFriend may issue refunds to users as required by law or in its discretion. Notwithstanding any language to the contrary in the Agreement, if GoodFriend issues (or notifies Provider that it is planning to issue) a full or partial refund to a Customer, GoodFriend shall have the right to be reimbursed for the applicable amount by Provider, or to withhold or deduct the applicable amount from Provider Payments (including future Provider Payments) in GoodFriend’s discretion; and if GoodFriend requests that Provider issue a refund to a Customer directly instead of reimbursing GoodFriend, Provider shall follow GoodFriend’s instructions. Provider’s obligations under this section shall apply in all events, including if Provider does not or cannot provide the applicable Provider Service.

a. Confidential Information. "Confidential Information” means all confidential and proprietary information of one party (“Disclosing Party”) disclosed to the other party (“Receiving Party”), including the terms of this Agreement (including pricing terms), either party’s marketing strategies and methodologies, business plans, technology and technical information, product designs, business processes, targeting information and processes, test results, statistics, reports, and compliance information, regardless of whether or not such information is designated as confidential.

Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Receiving Party may disclose such Confidential Information to those of its employees and contractors who need to know such information for purposes of performing the Receiving Party’s obligations under this Agreement, provided that the Receiving Party certifies that such employees and contractors have agreed, either as a condition of employment or in order to obtain such Confidential Information, to be bound by terms and conditions substantially similar to those in this Agreement. The Receiving Party shall use the same degree of care to protect the Confidential Information of the Disclosing Party as it uses to protect its own information of a confidential and proprietary nature, but in no event less than a reasonable degree of care.

c. Compelled Disclosure. If Receiving Party is compelled by law or court of competent authority to disclose Confidential Information of the Disclosing Party, it must first notify the Disclosing Party and provide it ample time to seek a protective order or other relief before producing Confidential Information. In the event such protection is not obtained, or the Disclosing Party waives compliance with this provision, the Receiving Party agrees that it will disclose only that portion of the Confidential Information that it is legally required to disclose.

d. Injunctive Relief. If the Receiving Party discloses or uses (or states an intent to disclose or use) any Confidential Information of the Disclosing Party in breach of the confidentiality obligations hereunder, the Disclosing Party shall have the right, in addition to any other remedies available to it, to seek injunctive relief to enjoin such acts, it being specifically acknowledged by the parties that any other available remedies are inadequate.

a. Assignment. Neither party may assign this Agreement, or any of its rights and obligations hereunder, without the prior written consent of the other party, except that GoodFriend has the unrestricted right to assign this Agreement to an affiliate or in the event of a sale, merger, or acquisition of any portion of its business to which this Agreement relates. Any attempted transfer in violation of this section will be void and of no effect.

Any such notice or other communication shall be deemed to be given as of the date it is delivered to the recipient or, if delivered on a non-business day, on the next business day.

c. Governing Law. This Agreement shall be governed by, and construed in accordance with, the laws of the State of Delaware without reference to its conflict of laws provisions.

d. Arbitration Agreement. Provider and GoodFriend acknowledge and agree that any dispute, claim, question, or disagreement arising out of or relating to the subject matter of this Agreement must be communicated in writing to the other party. The parties shall use their best efforts to reach resolution directly through good-faith negotiations, which shall be a precondition to either party initiating arbitration. If, after sixty (60) days, such negotiations do not resolve the dispute, it shall be finally settled by binding arbitration in New York, NY before the American Arbitration Association conducted under the rules of the American Arbitration Association. Judgment upon the award rendered by the arbitrator may be entered in any court with proper jurisdiction. PROVIDER AND GOODFRIEND WAIVE ANY RIGHTS TO GO TO COURT AND HAVE A TRIAL IN FRONT OF A JUDGE OR JURY. In any litigation between Provider and GoodFriend over whether to vacate or enforce an arbitration award, PROVIDER AND GOODFRIEND WAIVE ALL RIGHTS TO A JURY TRIAL and elect instead to have the dispute be resolved by a judge. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the following shall not be subject to arbitration and may be adjudicated only in the state and federal courts of New York: (i) any dispute, controversy, or claim relating to or contesting the validity of GoodFriend’s or one of GoodFriend’s family company’s intellectual property rights and proprietary rights, including without limitation, patents, trade]marks, service marks, copyrights, or trade secrets or (ii) an action by GoodFriend for temporary or preliminary injunctive relief, whether prohibitive or mandatory, or other provisional relief. FURTHER, ALL CLAIMS AND DISPUTES WITHIN THE SCOPE OF THIS ARBITRATION AGREEMENT MUST BE ARBITRATED OR LITIGATED ON AN INDIVIDUAL BASIS AND NOT ON A CLASS OR COLLECTIVE BASIS. CLAIMS OF MORE THAN ONE PROVIDER CANNOT BE ARBITRATED OR LITIGATED JOINTLY OR CONSOLIDATED WITH THOSE OF ANY OTHER PROVIDER. However, if the prohibition against class actions and other claims brought on behalf of third parties, or any other part of this section, is found to be unenforceable, then all of the other language in this Section 12.d shall be deemed unenforceable. To the extent that Provider or GoodFriend are permitted to bring a claim relating to this Agreement in state or federal court, then such claim shall only be brought in courts located in New York.

e. Modifications. No modification, amendment, or waiver of this Agreement or any of its provisions shall be binding upon GoodFriend unless made in writing and agreed to by GoodFriend. Provider expressly acknowledges and agrees that GoodFriend shall not be subject to any terms not set forth herein, including, but not limited to, any click-through agreements GoodFriend may be required to accept in connection with its use thereof. GoodFriend may amend the terms and conditions of this Agreement by posting a notice on Provider’s Account or otherwise reasonably notifying Provider at least thirty (30) days prior to such change taking effect, including by posting on the GoodFriend Website. If Provider does not agree to such changes, Provider may terminate this Agreement without penalty by providing GoodFriend with written notice of such election prior to such modification taking effect. Provider’s continued use of the Services or the GoodFriend Website following such period shall be deemed to be Provider’s acceptance of such change. A failure or delay of either party to: insist upon the performance of any terms, conditions, rights, or privileges of this Agreement, or exercise any rights or privileges conferred in this Agreement, shall not be construed as waiving any such terms, conditions, rights, or privileges and the same shall continue and remain in full force and effect.

f. Severability. Except as expressly set forth herein, in the event any one or more of the provisions of this Agreement shall for any reason be held to be invalid, illegal, or unenforceable, the remaining provisions of this Agreement shall be unimpaired, and the invalid, illegal, or unenforceable provision shall be replaced by a mutually acceptable provision, which, being valid, legal, and enforceable, comes closest to the intention of the parties underlying the invalid, illegal, or unenforceable provision.

h. Headings. The headings of the sections of this Agreement are for convenience only and do not form a part hereof or in any way limit, define, describe, modify, interpret, or construe the meaning, scope, or intent of this Agreement or any terms or conditions therein.

j. Third-Party Beneficiaries. This Agreement is entered into solely between, and made for the sole benefit of, GoodFriend and Provider, and, subject to indemnification obligations and the limitations of liability herein, this Agreement will not be deemed to create any obligations, remedies, or liabilities of a party to any third parties (including, without limitation, any of Provider’s officers, employees, agents, and independent contractors) unless explicitly stated herein. Except as otherwise stated in this Agreement, no third party shall have the right to make any claim or assert any right under this Agreement, and no third party shall be deemed a beneficiary of this Agreement.
