19. General legal terms

19.1 Sometimes when you use the Services, you may (as a result of, or through your use of the Services) use a service or download a piece of software, or purchase goods, which are provided by another person or company. Your use of these other services, software or goods may be subject to separate terms between you and the company or person concerned. If so, these Terms of Service do not affect your legal relationship with these other companies or individuals.

19.2 These Terms of Service constitute the whole legal agreement between you and doubleTwist and govern your use of the Services (but excluding any services which doubleTwist may provide to you under a separate written agreement), and completely replace any prior agreements between you and doubleTwist in relation to the Services.

19.3 You agree that doubleTwist may provide you with notices, including those regarding changes to these Terms of Service, by email, regular mail, or postings on the Services.

19.4 You agree that if doubleTwist does not exercise or enforce any legal right or remedy which is contained in these Terms of Service (or which doubleTwist has the benefit of under any applicable law), this will not be taken to be a formal waiver of doubleTwist’s rights and that those rights or remedies will still be available to doubleTwist.

19.5 If any court of law, having the jurisdiction to decide on this matter, rules that any provision of these Terms of Service is invalid, then that provision will be removed from these Terms of Service without affecting the rest of these Terms of Service. The remaining provisions of these Terms of Service will continue to be valid and enforceable.

19.6 You acknowledge and agree that each member of the group of companies of which doubleTwist is the parent shall be third party beneficiaries to these Terms of Service and that such other companies shall be entitled to directly enforce, and rely upon, any provision of these Terms of Service which confers a benefit on (or rights in favor of) them. Other than this, no other person or company shall be third party beneficiaries to these Terms of Service.

19.7 These Terms of Service, and your relationship with doubleTwist under these Terms of Service, shall be governed by the laws of the State of California without regard to its conflict of laws provisions. You and doubleTwist agree to submit to the exclusive jurisdiction of the courts located within Austin, Texas to resolve any legal matter arising from these Terms of Service. You also agree that, in the event any dispute or claim arises out of or relates to your use of the Services, that you and doubleTwist will attempt in good faith to negotiate a written resolution of the matter directly between the parties. You agree that if the matter remains unresolved for forty-five (45) days after notification (via certified mail or personal delivery) that a dispute exists, all parties shall join in non-binding mediation services in Austin, Texas with a mutually agreed mediator in an attempt to resolve the dispute. If the parties are unable to resolve the dispute, then they shall be free to pursue such other remedies as may be available under applicable law, subject to these Terms of Service. Should you file any arbitration claims, or any administrative or legal actions without first having attempted to resolve the matter by mediation, then you agree that you will not be entitled to recover attorney’s fees, even if you would otherwise be entitled to them. You further agree not to bring claims on a representative, class member basis, or as a private attorney general. Notwithstanding any of the above, you agree that doubleTwist shall still be allowed to apply for injunctive remedies (or an equivalent type of urgent legal relief) in any jurisdiction, without having to comply with the foregoing process.
