  20. Additional Terms
    1. Entire Agreement. These Terms of Use (including terms incorporated into them, e.g., the Privacy Policy) and any policies and guidelines posted to Betterfly.com and the Service comprise the entire agreement between you and Betterfly.com with respect to the use of Betterfly.com and the Service and supersede all contemporaneous and prior agreements between the parties regarding the subject matter contained herein, and neither party has relied on any representations made by the other that are not expressly set forth.
    2. Agreement to Conduct Transactions Electronically. All of your transactions with or through Betterfly.com and the Service may, at Betterfly.com’s option, be conducted electronically from start to finish. If Betterfly.com decides to proceed non-electronically, those services will still be governed by the remainder of these Terms of Use unless you enter into different terms provided by Betterfly.com. If the law allows you to withdraw this consent or if Betterfly.com is ever required to deal with you non-electronically, Betterfly.com reserves the right to charge or increase fees and you agree to print or make an electronic copy of the Terms of Use and any other contract or disclosure that Betterfly.com is required to provide to you.
    3. No Agency; No Third Party Beneficiary. These Terms of Use do not create any agency, partnership, joint venture, employer-employee or franchisor-franchisee relationship. Except for the Indemnified Persons, there are no third party beneficiaries of these Terms of Use.
    4. Severance. If any part of the Terms of Use is held by a court of competent jurisdiction or arbitration to be invalid or unenforceable, the invalid or unenforceable part will be given effect to the greatest extent possible and the remainder will remain in full effect, provided that the allocation of risks described in these Terms of Use is given effect to the fullest extent possible.
    5. Limitations on Actions. Any action concerning any dispute with respect to Betterfly.com and the Service must be commenced within one (1) year after the cause of the dispute arises, or the cause of action is barred.

Any claim, controversy or dispute of any kind between the User and Betterfly.com and/or any of its employees, agents, affiliates, or other representatives, whether sounding in contract, statute or tort, including fraud, misrepresentation, fraudulent inducement, or any other legal or equitable theory and regardless of the date of accrual of such claim, controversy, or dispute shall be resolved by final and binding arbitration as prescribed in this section. The Federal Arbitration Act, not state law, governs the question of whether a claim is subject to arbitration. A single arbitrator engaged in the practice of law will conduct the arbitration. The arbitrator may be selected by agreement of the parties, who shall cooperate in good faith to select the arbitrator. THE ARBITRATOR’S DECISION AND AWARD WILL BE FINAL AND BINDING, AND JUDGMENT ON THE AWARD RENDERED BY THE ARBITRATOR MAY BE ENTERED IN ANY COURT WITH JURISDICTION. TO ENFORCE THE ARBITRATION AWARE, THE PREVAILING PARTY IN THE ARBITRATION SHALL BE ENTITLED TO INJUNCTIVE RELIEV IN ANY COURT OF COMPETENT JURISDICTION. If any party files a judicial or administrative action asserting a claim that is subject to arbitration and another party successfully stays such action or compels arbitration, the party filing that action must pay the other party’s costs and expenses incurred in seeking such stay or compelling arbitration, including attorneys’ fees. THIS AGREEMENT IS GOVERNED BY AND MUST BE CONSTRUED UNDER THE LAWS OF THE SATE OF NEW YORK, WITHOUT REGARD TO CHOICE OF LAW PRINCIPLES AND YOU AGREE TO SUBMIT YOURSELF TO THE PRESONAL JURISDICTION OF THE COURTS IN THE STATE OF NEW YORK.
