    K. Governing Law

    These Terms are governed by the laws of the State of California without regard to conflict of law principles. You and SpringCM agree to submit to the personal and exclusive jurisdiction of the state courts and federal courts located within San Francisco County, California, for the purpose of litigating any disputes between you and SpringCM arising out of or relating to these Terms or your use of the Site. We operate the Site from our offices in California, and we make no representation that materials included in the Site are appropriate or available for use in other locations. No joint venture, partnership, employment, or agency relationship exists between you, SpringCM, or any third-party provider as a result of the Terms or use of the Site.

    L. Indemnity

    You are responsible for your use of the Site, and you agree to defend (at SpringCM’s option), indemnify, and hold harmless SpringCM and its officers, directors, employees, contractors, consultants, affiliates, investors, service providers, business partners, subsidiaries, and agents from and against every claim, liability, damage, loss, and expense, including reasonable attorneys’ fees and costs, arising out of or in any way connected with: (1) your violation of any of these Terms, any representation, warranty, or agreement referenced in these Terms, or any applicable law or regulation; (2) your violation of any third-party right, including any intellectual property right or publicity, confidentiality, other property, or privacy right; or (3) any dispute or issue between you and any third party.

    SpringCM reserves the right, at our own expense, to assume the exclusive defense and control of any matter otherwise subject to indemnification by you (without limiting your indemnification obligations) and you agree to cooperate with our defense of that claim. If the defense or settlement is assumed by you, SpringCM may at any time thereafter elect to take over control of the defense and settlement of the claim. You must not settle any claim without SpringCM’s prior written consent.

    M. Modification of these Terms

    We reserve the right to update or modify the Terms at any time without prior notice, and such changes will be effective immediately upon being posted through the Site, except as set forth below. Your use of the Site following any such change constitutes your agreement to be bound by the modified Terms.

    Disputes arising under these Terms will be resolved in accordance with the version of the Terms in place at the time the dispute arose. We encourage you to review these Terms frequently to stay informed of the latest modifications.
