Governing Law
All matters relating to the Application and these Terms of Use, and any dispute or claim arising therefrom or related thereto (in each case, including noncontractual disputes or claims), shall be governed by and construed in accordance with the internal laws of the State of Michigan without giving effect to any choice or conflict of law provision or rule (whether of the State of Michigan or any other jurisdiction).
Jurisdiction
Any legal suit, action, or proceeding arising out of, or related to, these Terms of Use or the Application shall be instituted exclusively in the state and federal courts in and for Oakland County, Michigan. You waive any and all objections to the exercise of jurisdiction over you by such courts and to venue in such courts.
Arbitration
Please read this section carefully. You waive your rights to try any claim in court before a judge or jury and to bring or participate in any class, collective, or other representative branch.

The arbitrator, not the court, will resolve the issue of arbitrability. Any state or federal court having jurisdiction thereof may enter judgment of any award the arbitrator renders. This arbitration contract is made under a transaction in interstate commerce, and the Federal Arbitration Act (“FAA”) will govern its interpretation, application, enforcement, and proceedings. As the Governing Law provision indicates, the laws of the State of Michigan govern the enforceability of this arbitration provision as a contract, but not the scope of this provision. You may not join or consolidate claims in arbitration by or against other consumers or to arbitrate any claim as a representative or member of a class or in a private attorney general capacity. The parties voluntarily and knowingly waive any right they have to a jury trial for all matters which, based on the above, will be arbitrated.

CDL Marketing Group, LLC d/b/a Career Now Brands
ATTN: Legal Department
302 E Parent Ave.
Royal Oak, MI 48067
The Notice must describe the nature and basis of the claim and the specific relief sought and your contact information. If the parties cannot reach an agreement within 30 days from the receipt of the Notice, either party may initiate arbitration proceedings.
Limitation on Time to Commence Claims
ANY CAUSE OF ACTION OR CLAIM YOU MAY HAVE ARISING OUT OF OR RELATING TO THESE TERMS OF USE OR THE APPLICATION MUST BE COMMENCED WITHIN ONE (1) YEAR AFTER THE CAUSE OF ACTION ACCRUES; OTHERWISE, SUCH CAUSE OF ACTION OR CLAIM IS PERMANENTLY BARRED.
Waiver
No waiver by the Company of any term or condition set out in these Terms of Use shall be deemed a further or continuing waiver of such term or condition or a waiver of any other term or condition, and any failure of the Company to assert a right or provision under these Terms of Use shall not constitute a waiver of such right or provision.
Severability
If any provision of these Terms of Use is held by a court or other tribunal of competent jurisdiction to be invalid, illegal, or unenforceable for any reason, such provision shall be eliminated or limited to the minimum extent such that the remaining provisions of the Terms of Use will continue in full force and effect.
Entire Agreement
The Terms of Use and our Privacy Policy constitute the sole and entire agreement between you and Career Now Brands regarding the Application and supersede all prior and contemporaneous understandings, agreements, representations, and warranties, both written and oral, regarding the Application.
