Waiver of Class Action. Any claims brought by you or Quraniah must be brought in that party's individual capacity, and not as a plaintiff or class member in any purported class or representative proceeding.

20. EXCLUSIONS

Some jurisdictions do not allow the exclusion of certain warranties or the limitation or exclusion of liability for incidental or consequential damages. Accordingly, some of the above limitations may not apply to you.

21. INTERNATIONAL

The Quraniah Platform may be accessed from countries other than the United States. The Quraniah Platform and the Services may contain products or references to products that are only available within the United States and U.S. territories. Any such references do not imply that such products will be made available outside the United States.

If you access and use the Quraniah Platform outside the United States, you are responsible for complying with all applicable local laws and regulations.

We make no representation that information on the Quraniah Platform is appropriate or available for use outside the United States. Those who choose to access the Quraniah Platform from outside the United States do so on their own initiative and at their own risk.

22. EXPORT CONTROL

The laws of the United States of America prohibit the transmission, export, and re-export of certain products, services, downloadable software, and data (technical data) to particular persons, territories, and foreign states. Nothing from the Services may be exported, in any way, in violation of United States law.

The United States export control regulations prohibit U.S. businesses, such as Quraniah, from offering services to users in specific sanctioned regions.

In order to comply with these regulations, it is not allowed for users in the following areas to access all or certain parts of the Quraniah Platform:

Iran,
Sudan,
Crimea,
Cuba,
Syria,
North Korea,
Temporary occupied territories of Donetsk and Luhansk oblast of Ukraine,
Any other country or region restricted by law (as may be changed from time to time).

Depending on your exact location, you may encounter an IP or payment purchase block when attempting to enroll in or otherwise access the Quraniah Platform.

23. LIQUIDATED DAMAGES

Quraniah and a User hereto acknowledge and agree that the funds that may be withheld under Section 14 of these Terms shall constitute liquidated damages and not penalties and are in addition to all other rights of Quraniah in case of the breach of these Terms. Quraniah and a User further acknowledge that (i) the amount of loss or damages likely to be incurred is incapable or is difficult to precisely estimate, (ii) the amounts specified in the abovementioned section bear a reasonable relationship to, and are not plainly or grossly disproportionate to, the probable loss likely to be incurred in connection with any material breach of the agreement by a User (iii) one of the reasons for Quraniah and a User reaching an agreement as to such amounts was the uncertainty and cost of litigation regarding the question of actual damages.

24. INDEMNIFICATION

By using the Services, you agree to indemnify, hold harmless and defend Quraniah and its subsidiaries, affiliates, shareholders, officers, directors, agents, licensors, suppliers, other partners, employees, and representatives from any claims, damages, losses, liabilities, and all costs and expenses of defense, including but not limited to, attorneys' fees, resulting directly or indirectly from a claim by a third party that arises in connection with your use of the Services, including but not limited to (a) acts and/or omissions on or off the Quraniah Platform; (b) violation of any rights of another, including without limitation any alleged infringement of intellectual property or other right of any person or entity relating to the Quraniah Platform; (c) breach of these Terms; (d) disputes with or between other Users; (e) use and/or misuse of the Quraniah Platform, including without limitation any information, content and/or materials thereon; (f) violation of any applicable law or regulation; (g) inaccurate, untimely, incomplete or misleading User information, including without limitation with respect to registration, profile or eligibility; (h) misstatements and/or misrepresentations; (i) use of links to third party websites, including without limitation such websites' availability, terms of use, privacy policy, information, content, materials, advertising, products and/or services; (j) User information and any acts or omissions with respect to such User information; (k) use of any information in third-party reports; (l) use of third-party payment processors; and/or (m) use of any services or products or any contracts or arrangements made or provided based on information, content and/or materials obtained on or through the Quraniah Platform. You further agree that you will cooperate as requested by Quraniah in defense of such claims. Quraniah reserves the right, at its own expense, to assume the exclusive defense and control of any matter otherwise subject to indemnification by Users, and you shall not, in any event, settle any claim or matter on behalf of Quraniah without the written consent of Quraniah. In the event that you have a dispute with any User, you hereby release Quraniah (and its officers, directors, agents, investors, subsidiaries, employees, contractors, and any other third parties related to the Services) from any and all claims, demands, or damages (actual or consequential) of every kind, known and unknown, arising out of or in any way related with such disputes. If you are a California resident, you waive California Civil Code Section 1542, which says: "A general release does not extend to claims that the creditor or releasing party does not know or suspect to exist in his or her favor at the time of executing the release and that, if known by him or her, would have materially affected his or her settlement with the debtor or released party."

25. DISPUTE RESOLUTION

Any dispute arising out of consumer claims shall be finally resolved by individual arbitration before a single arbitrator is conducted in the English language in Delaware, USA, under the Commercial Arbitration Rules of the American Arbitration Association (AAA).

All disputes arising out of or relating to these Terms shall be finally resolved by individual arbitration. The arbitration will be conducted in Delaware, USA, except that a User residing in the US may elect to have the arbitration conducted at a location of Quraniah's choice no more than 160 kilometers from the User's residence. The individual arbitration must be before a single arbitrator is conducted in English under the Commercial Arbitration Rules of the American Arbitration Association (AAA).

Any arbitration under these Terms will be between an individual User and Quraniah. To the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, and except as expressly provided below, you and Quraniah expressly waives any entitlement to resolve disputes in court or on a class, collective, or representative basis. You and Quraniah shall appoint as sole arbitrator a person mutually agreed by you and Quraniah or, if you and Quraniah cannot agree within thirty (30) days of either party's request for arbitration, such single arbitrator shall be selected by the AAA upon the request of either party.

The parties shall bear equally the cost of the arbitration except (a) to the extent prohibited by applicable law; (b) that if the arbitrator determines that costs unique to arbitration (i.e., filing, administration, and arbitrator's fees) would preclude a User from asserting a claim in arbitration, the arbitrator may require Quraniah to pay a greater share of such costs unique to arbitration; and (c) the prevailing party shall, to the extent permitted or required by applicable law, be entitled to an award of reasonable attorneys' fees and costs incurred in connection with the arbitration in such an amount as may be determined by the arbitrator.

All decisions of the arbitrator shall be final and binding on both parties and enforceable in any court of competent jurisdiction. Notwithstanding this, the application may be made to any court for a judicial acceptance of the award or order of enforcement. Notwithstanding the foregoing, Quraniah shall be entitled to seek temporary injunctive relief, security, or other equitable remedies from the United States District Court for the District of Delaware or any other court of competent jurisdiction.

26. GOVERNING LAW

These Terms shall be governed by the laws of the State of Delaware, USA, excluding the United Nations Convention on Contracts for the International Sale of Goods; the 1974 Convention on the Limitation Period in the International Sale of Goods; and the Protocol amending the 1974 Convention, done at Vienna April 11, 1980; provided, however, that to the fullest extent permissible under law the Federal Arbitration Act (9 U.S.C.\u00a7 1 et seq.) shall govern Section 25 of these Terms (entitled Dispute Resolution).

27. NON-SOLICITATION

Without limitation, the Services may not be used to solicit for any other business, website, or service. You may not solicit, advertise for, or contact in any form Users for employment, contracting, or any other purpose not related to the Service facilitated through Quraniah without express written permission from Quraniah.

You may not use the Service to collect usernames and/or email addresses of Users by electronic or other means without the express prior written consent of Quraniah.

29. ENTIRE AGREEMENT. SEVERABILITY

These Terms, together with any amendments and any additional agreements you may enter into with Quraniah in connection with the Services, shall constitute the entire agreement between you and Quraniah concerning the Services. If any part of these Terms is held to be unlawful, void, or unenforceable, that part will be deemed severable and shall not affect the validity and enforceability of the remaining provisions.
