Legal

Terms of Service

Last updated MONTH DAY, YEAR

These Terms of Use ("Legal Terms") are a legally binding agreement between you, whether personally or on behalf of an entity ("you"), and Tom Mazza ("we," "us," or "our"), concerning your access to and use of the thetommazza.com website and related services (collectively, the "Services"). By accessing the Services, you have read, understood, and agreed to be bound by all of these Legal Terms. If you do not agree, you must discontinue use of the Services immediately.

We may revise these Legal Terms at our discretion at any time. Material changes will be reflected by updating the "Last updated" date. Continued use of the Services after a change means you accept the revised terms.

The Services are intended for users who are at least 18 years old.

These Legal Terms govern your use of the thetommazza.com website only. Engagements between Tom Mazza and clients for services are governed by separate written agreements (proposals, statements of work, master service agreements), and disputes arising under those agreements are governed by their own terms, not these Legal Terms.

The Services may contain links to other websites ("Third-Party Websites") and content originating from third parties ("Third-Party Content"). We do not investigate, monitor, or check Third-Party Websites and Third-Party Content for accuracy or appropriateness, and we are not responsible for them.

We reserve the right to change, modify, or remove any portion of the Services at any time without notice. We cannot guarantee the Services will be available at all times. You agree that we have no liability for any loss, damage, or inconvenience caused by inability to access or use the Services.

10. Governing law

These Legal Terms and your use of the Services are governed by the laws of the State of Florida, without regard to its conflict of law principles.

11. Dispute resolution

Informal negotiations

The Parties agree to first attempt to negotiate any Dispute informally for at least thirty (30) days before initiating arbitration. Such informal negotiations commence upon written notice sent by email to the address in Section 19.

Binding arbitration

If informal negotiations fail, the Dispute will be finally and exclusively resolved by binding arbitration under the Commercial Arbitration Rules of the American Arbitration Association ("AAA"). The arbitration will take place in Broward County, Florida.

If a Dispute proceeds in court rather than arbitration, the parties consent to jurisdiction in the state and federal courts located in Broward County, Florida.

If arbitration costs are excessive, we agree to pay reasonable arbitration fees such that your cost does not exceed the cost of filing a claim in small claims court.

Restrictions

Arbitration will be limited to the Dispute between the Parties individually. No class actions, joinder, or representative proceedings are permitted.

Limitations period

Any cause of action arising out of or relating to these Legal Terms must be commenced within one (1) year after the cause of action accrues; otherwise, it is permanently barred.

12. Corrections

The Services may contain typographical errors, inaccuracies, or omissions. We reserve the right to correct any errors and to update information at any time without notice.

13. Disclaimer

THE SERVICES ARE PROVIDED ON AN AS-IS AND AS-AVAILABLE BASIS. YOUR USE OF THE SERVICES IS AT YOUR SOLE RISK. TO THE FULLEST EXTENT PERMITTED BY LAW, WE DISCLAIM ALL WARRANTIES, EXPRESS OR IMPLIED, INCLUDING THE IMPLIED WARRANTIES OF MERCHANTABILITY, FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE, AND NON-INFRINGEMENT. WE MAKE NO WARRANTIES ABOUT THE ACCURACY OR COMPLETENESS OF THE CONTENT AND ASSUME NO LIABILITY FOR ANY ERRORS, INTERRUPTIONS, OR UNAUTHORIZED ACCESS.

14. Limitations of liability

IN NO EVENT WILL WE BE LIABLE TO YOU OR ANY THIRD PARTY FOR ANY DIRECT, INDIRECT, CONSEQUENTIAL, EXEMPLARY, INCIDENTAL, SPECIAL, OR PUNITIVE DAMAGES. NOTWITHSTANDING ANYTHING TO THE CONTRARY, OUR LIABILITY TO YOU FOR ANY CAUSE WHATSOEVER WILL BE LIMITED TO ONE HUNDRED UNITED STATES DOLLARS (USD $100.00).

15. Indemnification

You consent to receive electronic communications. You agree that all agreements, notices, and other communications we provide electronically satisfy any legal requirement that such communication be in writing.

18. Miscellaneous

These Legal Terms constitute the entire agreement between you and us. Our failure to enforce any right will not operate as a waiver. If any provision is deemed unlawful, it is severable and does not affect the validity of remaining provisions. No joint venture, partnership, employment, or agency relationship is created by these Legal Terms.
