GENERAL INFORMATION

The TOS constitutes the entire agreement between you and Acquaintable and governs your use of the Services, superseding any prior agreements between you and Acquaintable. You also may be subject to additional terms and conditions that may apply when you use affiliate or other Acquaintable Services, third-party Content or third-party software. You will not assign the TOS or assign any rights or delegate any obligations hereunder, in whole or in part, whether voluntarily or by operation of law, without the prior written consent of Acquaintable. Any purported assignment or delegation by you without the appropriate prior written consent of Acquaintable will be null and void.

You and Acquaintable agree to submit to the personal and exclusive jurisdiction of the courts located within the county of New York, New York. The failure of Acquaintable to exercise or enforce any right or provision of the TOS shall not constitute a waiver of such right or provision.

You agree that regardless of any statute or law to the contrary, any claim or cause of action arising out of or related to use of the Services or the TOS must be filed within one (1) year after such claim or cause of action arose or be forever barred.
