If you have executed a separate written agreement related to the Program, that separate agreement will prevail in the event of a conflict between it and this Agreement.
SECTION 8. INDEPENDENT CONTRACTOR
Affiliates are independent contractors of HypnoBiz-in-a-Box™. It is expressly understood and intended that no employee/employer or principal-agent relationship shall exist between HypnoBiz-in-a-Box™ and you by virtue of this Agreement. You have no authority to act on behalf of or bind HypnoBiz-in-a-Box™ in any manner, nor do you share in HypnoBiz-in-a-Box™'s profits or losses.

SECTION 10. LIMITATION OF LIABILITY
Except where prohibited by law, in no event shall HypnoBiz-in-a-Box™ or any of its officers, directors, shareholders, employees, independent contractors, telecommunications providers, and agents be liable for any indirect, special, incidental, exemplary, consequential, punitive, or any other damages, fees, costs, or claims arising from or related to this Agreement, Terms of Service, the Privacy Policy, the Platform, or Services, your or a third party's use or attempted use of the website or any software, service, or product, regardless of whether HypnoBiz-in-a-Box™ has been advised of the possibility of such damages, fees, costs, or claims. This includes, without limitation, any loss of use, loss of profits, loss of data, loss of goodwill, cost of procurement of substitute services or products, or any other indirect, special, incidental, punitive, consequential, or other damages. This applies regardless of the manner in which damages are allegedly caused, and under any theory of liability, including breach of contract, tort (including negligence and strict liability), warranty, or otherwise. In no event shall HypnoBiz-in-a-Box™'s liability to you or your business exceed the lesser of three (3) times the payments made by you to HypnoBiz-in-a-Box™ for the month preceding the date on which the facts giving rise to a claim against HypnoBiz-in-a-Box™ occurred, or one-thousand five-hundred dollars ($1500), subject to applicable law.

However, this shall not preclude HypnoBiz-in-a-Box™ from pursuing all available remedies in law or equity.
SECTION 11. DISPUTE RESOLUTION BY MANDATORY BINDING ARBITRATION, CLASS ACTION WAIVER, & GOVERNING LAW
Any dispute arising under this Agreement shall be resolved through arbitration conducted by the American Arbitration Association in accordance with its then-current rules. The arbitration shall be held before a single arbitrator in Pinellas County, Florida, and conducted in English. The arbitrator(s) shall apply the laws of the State of Florida. The arbitrator's decision will be in writing and final, binding upon the parties. Each party will bear its own costs related to the arbitration, regardless of the outcome. This section provides the sole recourse for dispute resolution under this Agreement, except that either party may seek preliminary injunctive relief or other injunctive remedies in a court of competent jurisdiction if, in good faith, it believes such action is necessary to prevent or limit irreparable harm.
Moreover, the parties agree not to bring any disputes with each other on a collective or class basis. Instead, disputes must be brought to arbitration on an individual basis only. An arbitrator, not a court, will resolve any disputes concerning the enforceability or validity of this class and collective action waiver. If this class action waiver is deemed illegal for any reason, the parties agree that a court, not an arbitrator, will decide any class or collective action.
SECTION 12. INDEMNITY
You agree to defend, indemnify, and hold harmless HypnoBiz-in-a-Box™, its officers, directors, employees, owners, parent companies, and assigns from and against all demands, claims, actions, proceedings, damages, liabilities, losses, fees, costs, or expenses (including reasonable attorneys' fees and the costs of any investigation) directly or indirectly arising from or connected to (1) your use of or reliance on information or data provided or to be provided by you, (2) any breach of this Agreement by you, (3) your use or possession of any HypnoBiz-in-a-Box™ property, except to the extent caused by HypnoBiz-in-a-Box™'s gross negligence or willful misconduct, or (4) any negligence, gross negligence, or willful misconduct by you, your employees, or agents.
SECTION 13. SEVERABILITY
If any provision of this Agreement conflicts with or violates any applicable law, rule, or regulation, that provision shall be deemed modified to comply with the law, rule, or regulation, and this Agreement, as modified, shall remain in full force and effect.
SECTION 14. JUDICIAL ACTION FOR PROVISIONAL RELIEF
HypnoBiz-in-a-Box™ may seek equitable or provisional relief from a court of competent jurisdiction to enforce any right or interest it has under this Agreement. Such relief may include, but is not limited to, a temporary restraining order, preliminary injunction, writ of attachment, order for an audit, or enforcement of any liens or security interests held by either party in the property of the other. The availability of judicial actions described in this paragraph does not waive or limit the right to adjudicate the merits of the dispute through arbitration.
The parties acknowledge that any breach or threatened breach of this Agreement will result in irreparable harm to HypnoBiz-in-a-Box™ for which there will be no adequate remedy at law. In addition to other remedies available in law or equity, the non-breaching party is entitled to seek injunctive relief to prevent further breaches of this Agreement by the other party, without the requirement of posting a bond or proving actual damages resulting from the breach.
SECTION 15. COMPLAINT NOTIFICATION
Affiliates must promptly notify HypnoBiz-in-a-Box™ of any complaints received regarding any advertisements within twenty-four (24) hours of receiving such complaints. Notice should be directed to the HypnoBiz-in-a-Box™ Support Team [email protected]
SECTION 16. FORCE MAJEURE
Neither party shall be held liable for the nonperformance of their obligations under this Agreement if such nonperformance results from a Force Majeure Event as defined in this Section, provided that reasonable notice and good faith efforts to find a reasonable solution are provided.
