Givefront Terms of Use

Last Modified: March 2, 2024


Introduction


Please review these Terms of Use (“Terms of Use”) before using or accessing the website located at www.Givefront.com and any subdomain thereof (the “Site”) and Givefront’s alternative capital platform, which may be used or accessed via the Site (the “Givefront Dashboard”). If you do not agree to these Terms of Use, you should exit this Site. To make these Terms of Use easier to read, the Site and Givefront’s and its affiliates’ services and applications accessible via the Site, including the Givefront Dashboard, are collectively called the “Services”. If you are accessing the Services on behalf of a company or other legal entity, you represent and warrant that you have the authority to bind that entity to these Terms of Use, and "User" (or “you” and “your” as the context may require) will refer to that entity.

The Services are operated by Clav Inc., a Delaware corporation  ("Givefront", “Clav,” "we" or "us"). By accessing or using the Services, you, the User, signify that you have read, understand and agree to be bound by these Terms of Use. In addition to these Terms of Use, you may enter into other agreements with us or our affiliates that will govern your use of specific aspects of the Services offered by us or our affiliates, such as (without limitation), agreements relating to advances you may request or other financing arrangements applicable to the Services (collectively, “Other Agreements”). If there is any contradiction between these Terms of Use and any Other Agreement you enter into for specific aspects of the Services, the Other Agreement shall take precedence in relation to the specific aspects of the Services to which it applies. 

Changes to These Terms of Use


We may make changes to these Terms of Use from time to time. If we do this, we will post the changed Terms of Use on the Site and will indicate at the top of this page the date the Terms of Use were last revised. You understand and agree that your continued use of the Services after we have made any such changes constitutes your acceptance of the new Terms of Use.

Eligibility, License and Representations
Eligibility: General


The Services are intended solely for companies or legal entities with recurring revenues that are based in the United States that are in good standing in each jurisdiction in which they are registered to conduct business and that are not otherwise barred from using the Services under applicable law. The Services are not intended for individuals or sole traders. Specific aspects of the Services may be subject to additional requirements, including you continuing to meet (at Givefront’s sole determination) Givefront’s evaluation requirements from time to time, as further stated in the relevant Other Agreement. If you violate any of these Terms of Use, or otherwise violate an agreement between you and us, Givefront may terminate your access and use of Services, and delete your account and any content, data or information that you have posted on the Services and/or prohibit you from using or accessing the Services (or any portion, aspect or feature of the Services), at any time in its sole discretion, with or without notice.

Electronic Transactions and Disclosures


Because Givefront operates only on the Internet, you acknowledge that, should you use the Services, it is necessary to transact business with us online and electronically. As part of doing business with us or with our bank, payment, third-party referral or embedded partners (each, a “Partner”), we may need to obtain your signature to perform certain functions. In order to do this, we first need your consent to use electronic records and signatures. By providing your consent, you agree that we may send you any and all Communications in an electronic form. 

“Communications” means each disclosure, notice, agreement, undertaking, fee schedule, periodic statement, record, document or other information we provide to you (“Disclosures”), or that you sign or submit or agree to at our request, in connection with your relationship with us. You also consent to the use of electronic signatures as part of our transactions with you. 

By agreeing to these Terms of Use, you confirm your ability and agree to receive electronically all Disclosures from us or a Partner, rather than in paper form. In our sole discretion, the Communications we provide to you, or that you sign or agree to at our request, may be in electronic form ("Electronic Records"). We may also use electronic signatures and obtain them from you as part of our transactions with you. Electronic Records may be delivered to you in a variety of ways. These various delivery methods may include email or posting on a website that we designate. By agreeing to these Terms of Use, you agree to use electronic records and signatures, which may include clicking a checkbox or a button.

You may withdraw your consent to receive Communications in electronic form at any time by contacting us notice@givefront.com. If you do withdraw your consent, we will send subsequent Communications to you in writing to the most current mailing address we have for you in our records.  If you withdraw your consent or refuse to provide it, we will be unable to provide certain services to you. If you require paper copies of such Disclosures, please email us at notice@givefront.com.

Customer Communications


By accepting these Terms of Use, you acknowledge that it is necessary to be contacted by us, our agents, representatives, affiliates, or anyone calling on our behalf for any and all purposes in connection with the provision of the Services, at any telephone number, or physical or electronic address you provide or at which you may be reached. You agree we may contact you in any way, including SMS messages (including text messages), calls using pre- recorded messages or artificial voice, and calls and messages delivered using auto telephone dialing system or an automatic texting system. Automated messages may be played when the telephone is answered, whether by you or someone else. In the event that an agent or representative calls, he or she may also leave a message on your answering machine, voice mail, or send one via text. You certify, warrant and represent that the telephone numbers that you have provided to us are your numbers and do not relate to another individual or business. You represent that you are permitted to receive calls at each of the telephone numbers you have provided to us. You agree to alert us whenever you stop using a particular telephone number.

To unsubscribe from text messages at any time, reply STOP to any text message you receive from Givefront. You acknowledge that following such a request to unsubscribe, you may receive one final text message from Givefront confirming your request. For help, contact us at notice@givefront.com

For marketing calls, text and emails (i) we, our agents, representatives, affiliates, third parties, and anyone calling on our behalf may call, email or SMS messages (including text messages) you at the numbers and addresses you have provided for purposes of describing goods and services that may be of interest to you, offered by us, our affiliates and/or third parties; (ii) these calls, text and email messages may be made using an automatic dialing or email system technology and/or involve prerecorded and/or artificial voice messaging. To the extent that we process your personal data in making any such calls, we will do so in accordance with our Privacy Policy. 

Call Recording and Monitoring


You acknowledge that is necessary for us to record and monitor, for quality assurance, training, risk management and/or collection purposes, any call that you place with us (or our agents, representatives, affiliates, third parties or anyone calling on our behalf) or that we (or our agents, representatives, affiliates, third parties or anyone calling on our behalf) place to you.

Governing Law and Jurisdiction


These Terms of Use and any claim, controversy, dispute, or cause of action (whether in contract or tort or otherwise) based upon, arising out of, or relating to these Terms of Use and the Services contemplated hereby shall be governed by, and construed in accordance with, the laws of the State of Delaware, without regard for conflict of law principles, regardless of what laws govern the parties’ other rights, remedies, liabilities, powers and duties.

Subject to the paragraph below, at the option of any party to these Terms of Use, any controversy, dispute, or claim between the parties based upon, resulting from, arising out of, or relating to these Terms of Use shall be resolved by an arbitration conducted in accordance with the Delaware Rapid Arbitration Act, 10 Del. Code § 5801 et. sec. (“Arbitration Option”). Clicking “Continue” on your Givefront Dashboard constitutes signatures by you as required under 10 Del. Code § 5803(a)(1). Any  arbitrator appointed pursuant to the exercise of the Arbitration Option, has the power to order party, third party, and expert discovery as appropriate in the sole discretion of the arbitrator, including issuing subpoenas (and all provisions of law compelling a person under subpoena to testify are applicable), award commissions to permit a deposition to be taken (in the manner and on the terms designated by the arbitrator) of a witness who cannot be subpoenaed, and order expert disclosures and discovery.

Notwithstanding the exercise of the Arbitration Option, any party to these Terms of Use may at its option seek any and all applicable and available provisional remedies, including but not limited to attachment, garnishment, preliminary injunction, temporary restraining order, appointment of receiver, etc., from the Federal or State court in the jurisdiction the action or proceeding may be brought pursuant to the paragraph below. An arbitrator cannot override, reverse, or alter a provisional remedy ordered by the Court unless or until the arbitrator issues the final award in the arbitration proceeding. If the provisional remedy ordered by the Court is in any manner affected by the arbitrator’s award, whether rendered moot, affirmed, or otherwise, the final award of the arbitrator shall include sufficient direction for all parties and third parties, including the Court that issued the provisional remedy, to conform the provisional remedy order to the final award upon the Court’s entry of the order confirming the final judgment in the action or proceeding. Nothing in this paragraph precludes an arbitrator from ordering or declining to order provisional remedies that were not litigated before the Court so long as any action or order of the arbitrator is not inconsistent with any action or order issue by the Court.  

Each party hereto irrevocably and unconditionally submits to the jurisdiction of the courts of the State of Delaware sitting in New Castle County and of the United States District Court of the District of Delaware, in any action or proceeding resulting from, arising out of, or relating to these Terms of Use, any action or motion to confirm, correct, or vacate an arbitration award, or for enforcement of any award or judgment. Each party hereto agrees that a final judgment in any such action or proceeding shall be conclusive and may be enforced in other jurisdictions by suit on the judgment or in any other manner provided by law. Nothing herein shall affect any right that Givefront may otherwise have to bring any action or proceeding relating to these Terms of Use against you or your properties in the courts of any other jurisdiction. Each party hereto, waives to the extent permitted by applicable law, any right each may have to assert the doctrine of forum non conveniens or to object to venue to the extent any proceeding is brought in accordance with this paragraph. Each party hereto waives personal service of process and irrevocably consents to the service of process by registered or certified mail at the address set forth for notices. In any lawsuit or arbitration resulting from, arising out of, or relating to this Terms of Use the prevailing party shall be entitled to recover reasonable attorneys’ fees.

Indemnity


You agree to indemnify and hold Givefront and the Givefront Parties, harmless from and against any loss, liability, claim, demand, damages, costs and expenses, including reasonable attorney's fees, arising out of or in connection with (a) your access to or use of the Services, (b) your User Content, or (c) your violation of these Terms of Use or of any law or the rights of any third party.

Others


These Terms of Use (together with all applicable Other Agreements) constitute the entire and exclusive understanding and agreement between Company and you regarding the Services, and these Terms of Use (together with all applicable Other Agreements) supersede and replace all prior oral or written understandings or agreements between Givefront and you regarding the Services. The failure of Givefront to exercise or enforce any right or provision of these Terms of Use shall not constitute a waiver of such right or provision in that or any other instance. If any provision of these Terms of Use is held invalid, the remainder of these Terms of Use shall continue in full force and effect. If any provision of these Terms of Use shall be deemed unlawful, void or for any reason unenforceable, then that provision shall be deemed severable from these Terms of Use and shall not affect the validity and enforceability of any remaining provisions. You may not assign or transfer these Terms of Use, by operation of law or otherwise, without Givefront’s advance written consent. Any attempt by you to assign or transfer these Terms of Use, without such consent, will be null. Givefront may freely assign or transfer these Terms of Use without restriction. Subject to the foregoing, these Terms of Use will bind and inure to the benefit of the parties, their successors and permitted assigns.

Introduction


Please review these Terms of Use (“Terms of Use”) before using or accessing the website located at www.Givefront.com and any subdomain thereof (the “Site”) and Givefront’s alternative capital platform, which may be used or accessed via the Site (the “Givefront Dashboard”). If you do not agree to these Terms of Use, you should exit this Site. To make these Terms of Use easier to read, the Site and Givefront’s and its affiliates’ services and applications accessible via the Site, including the Givefront Dashboard, are collectively called the “Services”. If you are accessing the Services on behalf of a company or other legal entity, you represent and warrant that you have the authority to bind that entity to these Terms of Use, and "User" (or “you” and “your” as the context may require) will refer to that entity.

The Services are operated by Clav Inc., a Delaware corporation  ("Givefront", “Clav,” "we" or "us"). By accessing or using the Services, you, the User, signify that you have read, understand and agree to be bound by these Terms of Use. In addition to these Terms of Use, you may enter into other agreements with us or our affiliates that will govern your use of specific aspects of the Services offered by us or our affiliates, such as (without limitation), agreements relating to advances you may request or other financing arrangements applicable to the Services (collectively, “Other Agreements”). If there is any contradiction between these Terms of Use and any Other Agreement you enter into for specific aspects of the Services, the Other Agreement shall take precedence in relation to the specific aspects of the Services to which it applies. 

Changes to These Terms of Use


We may make changes to these Terms of Use from time to time. If we do this, we will post the changed Terms of Use on the Site and will indicate at the top of this page the date the Terms of Use were last revised. You understand and agree that your continued use of the Services after we have made any such changes constitutes your acceptance of the new Terms of Use.


Eligibility, License and Representations

The Services are intended solely for companies or legal entities with recurring revenues that are based in the United States that are in good standing in each jurisdiction in which they are registered to conduct business and that are not otherwise barred from using the Services under applicable law. The Services are not intended for individuals or sole traders. Specific aspects of the Services may be subject to additional requirements, including you continuing to meet (at Givefront’s sole determination) Givefront’s evaluation requirements from time to time, as further stated in the relevant Other Agreement. If you violate any of these Terms of Use, or otherwise violate an agreement between you and us, Givefront may terminate your access and use of Services, and delete your account and any content, data or information that you have posted on the Services and/or prohibit you from using or accessing the Services (or any portion, aspect or feature of the Services), at any time in its sole discretion, with or without notice.

Electronic Transactions and Disclosures


Because Givefront operates only on the Internet, you acknowledge that, should you use the Services, it is necessary to transact business with us online and electronically. As part of doing business with us or with our bank, payment, third-party referral or embedded partners (each, a “Partner”), we may need to obtain your signature to perform certain functions. In order to do this, we first need your consent to use electronic records and signatures. By providing your consent, you agree that we may send you any and all Communications in an electronic form.

Governing Law and Jurisdiction


These Terms of Use and any claim, controversy, dispute, or cause of action (whether in contract or tort or otherwise) based upon, arising out of, or relating to these Terms of Use and the Services contemplated hereby shall be governed by, and construed in accordance with, the laws of the State of Delaware, without regard for conflict of law principles, regardless of what laws govern the parties’ other rights, remedies, liabilities, powers and duties.

Subject to the paragraph below, at the option of any party to these Terms of Use, any controversy, dispute, or claim between the parties based upon, resulting from, arising out of, or relating to these Terms of Use shall be resolved by an arbitration conducted in accordance with the Delaware Rapid Arbitration Act, 10 Del. Code § 5801 et. sec. (“Arbitration Option”). Clicking “Continue” on your Givefront Dashboard constitutes signatures by you as required under 10 Del. Code § 5803(a)(1). Any  arbitrator appointed pursuant to the exercise of the Arbitration Option, has the power to order party, third party, and expert discovery as appropriate in the sole discretion of the arbitrator, including issuing subpoenas (and all provisions of law compelling a person under subpoena to testify are applicable), award commissions to permit a deposition to be taken (in the manner and on the terms designated by the arbitrator) of a witness who cannot be subpoenaed, and order expert disclosures and discovery.

Notwithstanding the exercise of the Arbitration Option, any party to these Terms of Use may at its option seek any and all applicable and available provisional remedies, including but not limited to attachment, garnishment, preliminary injunction, temporary restraining order, appointment of receiver, etc., from the Federal or State court in the jurisdiction the action or proceeding may be brought pursuant to the paragraph below. An arbitrator cannot override, reverse, or alter a provisional remedy ordered by the Court unless or until the arbitrator issues the final award in the arbitration proceeding. If the provisional remedy ordered by the Court is in any manner affected by the arbitrator’s award, whether rendered moot, affirmed, or otherwise, the final award of the arbitrator shall include sufficient direction for all parties and third parties, including the Court that issued the provisional remedy, to conform the provisional remedy order to the final award upon the Court’s entry of the order confirming the final judgment in the action or proceeding. Nothing in this paragraph precludes an arbitrator from ordering or declining to order provisional remedies that were not litigated before the Court so long as any action or order of the arbitrator is not inconsistent with any action or order issue by the Court.  

Each party hereto irrevocably and unconditionally submits to the jurisdiction of the courts of the State of Delaware sitting in New Castle County and of the United States District Court of the District of Delaware, in any action or proceeding resulting from, arising out of, or relating to these Terms of Use, any action or motion to confirm, correct, or vacate an arbitration award, or for enforcement of any award or judgment. Each party hereto agrees that a final judgment in any such action or proceeding shall be conclusive and may be enforced in other jurisdictions by suit on the judgment or in any other manner provided by law. Nothing herein shall affect any right that Givefront may otherwise have to bring any action or proceeding relating to these Terms of Use against you or your properties in the courts of any other jurisdiction. Each party hereto, waives to the extent permitted by applicable law, any right each may have to assert the doctrine of forum non conveniens or to object to venue to the extent any proceeding is brought in accordance with this paragraph. Each party hereto waives personal service of process and irrevocably consents to the service of process by registered or certified mail at the address set forth for notices. In any lawsuit or arbitration resulting from, arising out of, or relating to this Terms of Use the prevailing party shall be entitled to recover reasonable attorneys’ fees.

Indemnity


You agree to indemnify and hold Givefront and the Givefront Parties, harmless from and against any loss, liability, claim, demand, damages, costs and expenses, including reasonable attorney's fees, arising out of or in connection with (a) your access to or use of the Services, (b) your User Content, or (c) your violation of these Terms of Use or of any law or the rights of any third party.

Others


These Terms of Use (together with all applicable Other Agreements) constitute the entire and exclusive understanding and agreement between Company and you regarding the Services, and these Terms of Use (together with all applicable Other Agreements) supersede and replace all prior oral or written understandings or agreements between Givefront and you regarding the Services. The failure of Givefront to exercise or enforce any right or provision of these Terms of Use shall not constitute a waiver of such right or provision in that or any other instance. If any provision of these Terms of Use is held invalid, the remainder of these Terms of Use shall continue in full force and effect. If any provision of these Terms of Use shall be deemed unlawful, void or for any reason unenforceable, then that provision shall be deemed severable from these Terms of Use and shall not affect the validity and enforceability of any remaining provisions. You may not assign or transfer these Terms of Use, by operation of law or otherwise, without Givefront’s advance written consent. Any attempt by you to assign or transfer these Terms of Use, without such consent, will be null. Givefront may freely assign or transfer these Terms of Use without restriction. Subject to the foregoing, these Terms of Use will bind and inure to the benefit of the parties, their successors and permitted assigns.

Introduction


Please review these Terms of Use (“Terms of Use”) before using or accessing the website located at www.Givefront.com and any subdomain thereof (the “Site”) and Givefront’s alternative capital platform, which may be used or accessed via the Site (the “Givefront Dashboard”). If you do not agree to these Terms of Use, you should exit this Site. To make these Terms of Use easier to read, the Site and Givefront’s and its affiliates’ services and applications accessible via the Site, including the Givefront Dashboard, are collectively called the “Services”. If you are accessing the Services on behalf of a company or other legal entity, you represent and warrant that you have the authority to bind that entity to these Terms of Use, and "User" (or “you” and “your” as the context may require) will refer to that entity.

The Services are operated by Clav Inc., a Delaware corporation  ("Givefront", “Clav,” "we" or "us"). By accessing or using the Services, you, the User, signify that you have read, understand and agree to be bound by these Terms of Use. In addition to these Terms of Use, you may enter into other agreements with us or our affiliates that will govern your use of specific aspects of the Services offered by us or our affiliates, such as (without limitation), agreements relating to advances you may request or other financing arrangements applicable to the Services (collectively, “Other Agreements”). If there is any contradiction between these Terms of Use and any Other Agreement you enter into for specific aspects of the Services, the Other Agreement shall take precedence in relation to the specific aspects of the Services to which it applies. 

Changes to These Terms of Use


We may make changes to these Terms of Use from time to time. If we do this, we will post the changed Terms of Use on the Site and will indicate at the top of this page the date the Terms of Use were last revised. You understand and agree that your continued use of the Services after we have made any such changes constitutes your acceptance of the new Terms of Use.

Eligibility, License and Representations

Eligibility: General


The Services are intended solely for companies or legal entities with recurring revenues that are based in the United States that are in good standing in each jurisdiction in which they are registered to conduct business and that are not otherwise barred from using the Services under applicable law. The Services are not intended for individuals or sole traders. Specific aspects of the Services may be subject to additional requirements, including you continuing to meet (at Givefront’s sole determination) Givefront’s evaluation requirements from time to time, as further stated in the relevant Other Agreement. If you violate any of these Terms of Use, or otherwise violate an agreement between you and us, Givefront may terminate your access and use of Services, and delete your account and any content, data or information that you have posted on the Services and/or prohibit you from using or accessing the Services (or any portion, aspect or feature of the Services), at any time in its sole discretion, with or without notice.


Electronic Transactions and Disclosures


Because Givefront operates only on the Internet, you acknowledge that, should you use the Services, it is necessary to transact business with us online and electronically. As part of doing business with us or with our bank, payment, third-party referral or embedded partners (each, a “Partner”), we may need to obtain your signature to perform certain functions. In order to do this, we first need your consent to use electronic records and signatures. By providing your consent, you agree that we may send you any and all Communications in an electronic form. 

“Communications” means each disclosure, notice, agreement, undertaking, fee schedule, periodic statement, record, document or other information we provide to you (“Disclosures”), or that you sign or submit or agree to at our request, in connection with your relationship with us. You also consent to the use of electronic signatures as part of our transactions with you. 

By agreeing to these Terms of Use, you confirm your ability and agree to receive electronically all Disclosures from us or a Partner, rather than in paper form. In our sole discretion, the Communications we provide to you, or that you sign or agree to at our request, may be in electronic form ("Electronic Records"). We may also use electronic signatures and obtain them from you as part of our transactions with you. Electronic Records may be delivered to you in a variety of ways. These various delivery methods may include email or posting on a website that we designate. By agreeing to these Terms of Use, you agree to use electronic records and signatures, which may include clicking a checkbox or a button.

You may withdraw your consent to receive Communications in electronic form at any time by contacting us notice@givefront.com. If you do withdraw your consent, we will send subsequent Communications to you in writing to the most current mailing address we have for you in our records.  If you withdraw your consent or refuse to provide it, we will be unable to provide certain services to you. If you require paper copies of such Disclosures, please email us at notice@givefront.com.

Governing Law and Jurisdiction


These Terms of Use and any claim, controversy, dispute, or cause of action (whether in contract or tort or otherwise) based upon, arising out of, or relating to these Terms of Use and the Services contemplated hereby shall be governed by, and construed in accordance with, the laws of the State of Delaware, without regard for conflict of law principles, regardless of what laws govern the parties’ other rights, remedies, liabilities, powers and duties.

Subject to the paragraph below, at the option of any party to these Terms of Use, any controversy, dispute, or claim between the parties based upon, resulting from, arising out of, or relating to these Terms of Use shall be resolved by an arbitration conducted in accordance with the Delaware Rapid Arbitration Act, 10 Del. Code § 5801 et. sec. (“Arbitration Option”). Clicking “Continue” on your Givefront Dashboard constitutes signatures by you as required under 10 Del. Code § 5803(a)(1). Any  arbitrator appointed pursuant to the exercise of the Arbitration Option, has the power to order party, third party, and expert discovery as appropriate in the sole discretion of the arbitrator, including issuing subpoenas (and all provisions of law compelling a person under subpoena to testify are applicable), award commissions to permit a deposition to be taken (in the manner and on the terms designated by the arbitrator) of a witness who cannot be subpoenaed, and order expert disclosures and discovery.

Notwithstanding the exercise of the Arbitration Option, any party to these Terms of Use may at its option seek any and all applicable and available provisional remedies, including but not limited to attachment, garnishment, preliminary injunction, temporary restraining order, appointment of receiver, etc., from the Federal or State court in the jurisdiction the action or proceeding may be brought pursuant to the paragraph below. An arbitrator cannot override, reverse, or alter a provisional remedy ordered by the Court unless or until the arbitrator issues the final award in the arbitration proceeding. If the provisional remedy ordered by the Court is in any manner affected by the arbitrator’s award, whether rendered moot, affirmed, or otherwise, the final award of the arbitrator shall include sufficient direction for all parties and third parties, including the Court that issued the provisional remedy, to conform the provisional remedy order to the final award upon the Court’s entry of the order confirming the final judgment in the action or proceeding. Nothing in this paragraph precludes an arbitrator from ordering or declining to order provisional remedies that were not litigated before the Court so long as any action or order of the arbitrator is not inconsistent with any action or order issue by the Court.  

Each party hereto irrevocably and unconditionally submits to the jurisdiction of the courts of the State of Delaware sitting in New Castle County and of the United States District Court of the District of Delaware, in any action or proceeding resulting from, arising out of, or relating to these Terms of Use, any action or motion to confirm, correct, or vacate an arbitration award, or for enforcement of any award or judgment. Each party hereto agrees that a final judgment in any such action or proceeding shall be conclusive and may be enforced in other jurisdictions by suit on the judgment or in any other manner provided by law. Nothing herein shall affect any right that Givefront may otherwise have to bring any action or proceeding relating to these Terms of Use against you or your properties in the courts of any other jurisdiction. Each party hereto, waives to the extent permitted by applicable law, any right each may have to assert the doctrine of forum non conveniens or to object to venue to the extent any proceeding is brought in accordance with this paragraph. Each party hereto waives personal service of process and irrevocably consents to the service of process by registered or certified mail at the address set forth for notices. In any lawsuit or arbitration resulting from, arising out of, or relating to this Terms of Use the prevailing party shall be entitled to recover reasonable attorneys’ fees.

These Terms of Use (together with all applicable Other Agreements) constitute the entire and exclusive understanding and agreement between Company and you regarding the Services, and these Terms of Use (together with all applicable Other Agreements) supersede and replace all prior oral or written understandings or agreements between Givefront and you regarding the Services. The failure of Givefront to exercise or enforce any right or provision of these Terms of Use shall not constitute a waiver of such right or provision in that or any other instance. If any provision of these Terms of Use is held invalid, the remainder of these Terms of Use shall continue in full force and effect. If any provision of these Terms of Use shall be deemed unlawful, void or for any reason unenforceable, then that provision shall be deemed severable from these Terms of Use and shall not affect the validity and enforceability of any remaining provisions. You may not assign or transfer these Terms of Use, by operation of law or otherwise, without Givefront’s advance written consent. Any attempt by you to assign or transfer these Terms of Use, without such consent, will be null. Givefront may freely assign or transfer these Terms of Use without restriction.
