Disclaimer
THE SERVICES ARE PROVIDED “AS-IS” WITHOUT WARRANTIES OF ANY KIND. NEITHER WE NOR OUR SUPPLIERS WARRANT OR GUARANTEE UPTIME OR AVAILABILITY OF THE SERVICE, THAT THE SERVICE WILL MEET OR CONTINUE IN THE FUTURE TO MEET YOUR NEEDS, OR THAT WE WILL CONTINUE TO PROVIDE THE SERVICE OR ANY ASPECT OF THE SERVICE IN THE FUTURE. TO THE MAXIMUM EXTENT PERMITTED BY LAW, WE DISCLAIM ALL WARRANTIES RELATING TO THE SERVICES, INCLUDING WITHOUT LIMITATION THE IMPLIED WARRANTIES OF MERCHANTABILITY, FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE AND NON-INFRINGEMENT.
TO THE MAXIMUM EXTENT PERMITTED BY LAW, YOU AGREE THAT WE WILL NOT BE LIABLE OR RESPONSIBLE FOR LOST PROFITS, REVENUES OR DATA, FINANCIAL LOSSES, OR DIRECT, INDIRECT, SPECIAL, CONSEQUENTIAL, EXEMPLARY, OR PUNITIVE DAMAGES OF ANY KIND. TO THE EXTENT THAT THE FOREGOING IS NOT FULLY ENFORCED, TO THE MAXIMUM EXTENT PERMITTED BY LAW, OUR TOTAL LIABILITY TO YOU OR OTHERS FOR ANY CLAIM RELATING TO THE SERVICES OR THESE TERMS OF USE, INCLUDING ANY CLAIM FOR ANY IMPLIED WARRANTY, IS LIMITED TO THE AMOUNT YOU PAID TO US TO USE THE SERVICES OR ONE HUNDRED DOLLARS ($100), WHICHEVER IS GREATER.
Disputes
You agree that any claim or dispute arising out of or relating in any way to your use of the Services or any service provided by Rentcheck, will be resolved solely and exclusively by binding arbitration, rather than in court, except that you may assert claims in small claims court if your claims qualify. The Federal Arbitration Act and federal arbitration law apply to this agreement. The laws of the State of Louisiana shall govern this Agreement, and shall be used in any arbitration proceeding.
There is no judge or jury in arbitration, and court review of an arbitration award is limited. However, an arbitrator can award on an individual basis the same damages and relief as a court (including injunctive and declaratory relief or statutory damages), and must follow the terms of this Agreement as a court would.
To begin an arbitration proceeding, you must send a letter requesting arbitration and describing your claim to our address below.
Arbitration under this Agreement will be conducted by the American Arbitration Association (AAA) under its rules then in effect. Payment of all filing, administration and arbitrator fees will be governed by the AAA's rules.
You and Rentcheck agree that any dispute resolution proceedings will be conducted only on an individual basis and not in a class, consolidated or representative action. If for any reason a claim proceeds in court rather than in arbitration, both you and Rentcheck agree that parties have each waived any right to a jury trial.
Notwithstanding the foregoing, you agree that Rentcheck may bring suit in court to enjoin infringement or other misuse of intellectual property or other proprietary rights.
To the extent arbitration does not apply, you agree that any dispute arising out of or relating to the Services, or to Rentcheck, may only be brought by you in a state or federal court located in New Orleans, Louisiana. YOU HEREBY WAIVE ANY OBJECTION TO THIS VENUE AS INCONVENIENT OR INAPPROPRIATE, AND AGREE TO EXCLUSIVE JURISDICTION AND VENUE IN LOUISIANA.

If any part of this Agreement is held to be invalid or enforceable, the rest of the Agreement will still apply.
