Governing Law The laws of California, excluding its conflicts of law rules, shall govern these Terms and your use of the Website. Any disputes relating to these Terms or anything contained on the Website will be governed by the laws of California, without regard to its principles of conflicts of laws. Subject to the arbitration provision below, any claim relating to these Terms or the Website shall be exclusively prosecuted in a federal or state court of competent jurisdiction located within Los Angeles County, California, and you hereby consent to the jurisdiction of such court solely for such purposes and you further waive any argument that any such court does not have jurisdiction over such dispute or that venue in any such court is not appropriate or convenient. The Cayton will be entitled to recover their court costs and reasonable attorneys’ fees and expenses incurred in successfully proving any breach or violation of any term of these Terms. Arbitration PLEASE READ THE FOLLOWING SECTION CAREFULLY. IT REQUIRES YOU TO ARBITRATE DISPUTES WITH THE CAYTON AND LIMITS THE MANNER IN WHICH YOU CAN SEEK RELIEF. Any and all disputes, claims or controversies (together, “Claims”) arising out of or relating to these Terms shall be settled by binding arbitration in accordance with American Arbitration Association (“AAA”) governing rules and procedures, including the Supplementary Procedures for Consumer-Related Disputes, where applicable. In agreeing to arbitrate all Claims, you and the Cayton waive all rights to a trial by jury in any action or proceeding involving any Claim. The parties agree that an award and any judgment confirming it only applies to the arbitration in which it was awarded and cannot be used in any other case except to enforce the award itself. This agreement to arbitrate shall apply, without limitation, to all claims that arose or were asserted before the Effective Date of this agreement to arbitrate and shall survive termination of your relationship with the Cayton. The arbitrator shall have exclusive authority to resolve any dispute relating to the interpretation, applicability, enforceability or formation of these Terms including, but not limited to any claim that all or any part of this agreement to arbitrate is void or voidable. All disputes regarding the payment of arbitrator or arbitration-organization fees including the timing of such payments and remedies for nonpayment, shall be determined exclusively by an arbitrator, and not by any court. The arbitrator will decide the rights and liabilities, if any, of you and the Cayton. The arbitrator will have the authority to grant motions dispositive of all or part of any claim or dispute. Subject to the limitations set forth below in this Section, the arbitrator shall have authority to award legal and equitable relief on an individual basis that a judge in a court of law would have, provided that: The arbitrator shall not have authority to award punitive damages unless authorized to do so by statute; and Any and all claims shall be arbitrated on an individual basis only and shall not be consolidated or joined with or in any arbitration or other proceeding involving a Claim of any other party. You and the Cayton agree that the arbitrator shall have no authority to arbitrate any Claim as a class action or in any other form other than on an individual basis. The award shall be binding only among the parties and shall have no preclusive effect in any other arbitration or other proceeding involving a different party. The arbitrator shall follow the applicable law. The arbitrator’s decision is final and binding on you and the Cayton. YOU AND THE CAYTON AGREE TO WAIVE ANY RIGHT TO RESOLVE CLAIMS WITHIN THE SCOPE OF THESE TERMS ON A CLASS, COLLECTIVE, OR REPRESENTATIVE BASIS. ALL CLAIMS AND DISPUTES WITHIN THE SCOPE OF THESE TERMS MUST BE ARBITRATED ON AN INDIVIDUAL BASIS AND NOT ON A CLASS OR COLLECTIVE BASIS. CLAIMS OF MORE THAN ONE CUSTOMER OR USER CANNOT BE ARBITRATED OR LITIGATED JOINTLY OR CONSOLIDATED WITH THOSE OF ANY OTHER CUSTOMER OR USER. If, however, this waiver of class or consolidated actions is deemed invalid or unenforceable with respect to a particular claim or dispute, neither you nor the Cayton is entitled to arbitration of such claim or dispute. Instead, all such claims and disputes will then be resolved in a court as set forth in the “Governing Law” Section. This provision does not prevent you or the Cayton from participating in a class-wide settlement of claims. To the maximum extent permitted by law, you permanently and irrevocably waive the right to bring any Claim in any forum unless you provide the Cayton with written notice of the event or facts giving rise to the Claim within one (1) year of their occurrence, which should be provided in the manner outlined under the “Notice” Section. Notwithstanding any provision in these Terms to the contrary, we agree that if the Cayton makes any future material change to this agreement to arbitrate, it will not apply to any individual claim(s) that you had already provided notice of to the Cayton. Notice The Cayton may give notice to users of the Website by means of a general notice on the Website, electronic mail to a user’s email address if on record, or by written communication sent by first class mail to a user’s address if on record. You may give notice to the Cayton (such notice shall be deemed given when received) by any of the following means: Electronic mail: info@caytonmuseum.org Letter delivered by first class postage prepaid mail or courier to the Cayton at the following address: Cayton Children’s Museum 395 Santa Monica Place, Suite 374, Santa Monica, CA, 90401 United States Indemnification You hereby agree to indemnify and hold the Cayton and each of its respective members, operators, directors, officers, employees, shareholders, agents, affiliates, and representatives harmless from all claims, liabilities, damages, and expenses (including attorneys’ fees and court costs) arising out of or relating to: (i) your use of the Website; (ii) any content submitted by you ; (iii) any breach or alleged breach of these Terms; (iv) your violation of any applicable law, statute, ordinance, regulation, or of any third party’s rights; and (v) claims asserted by third parties that, if proven, would place you in breach of representations, warranties, covenants, or other provisions in these Terms. The Cayton may, in its sole and absolute discretion, control the disposition of any claim (and the selection of counsel) at your sole cost and expense. Without limiting the foregoing, you may not settle, compromise, or in any other manner dispose of any claim without the consent of the Cayton. Severability If any provision of these Terms is held to be unenforceable or invalid, such provision will be changed and interpreted to accomplish the objectives of such provision to the greatest extent possible under applicable law and the remaining provisions will continue in full force and effect. Waiver Except as provided herein, the failure to exercise a right or to require performance of an obligation under these Terms shall not effect a party's ability to exercise such right or require such performance at any time thereafter nor shall be the waiver of a breach constitute a waiver of any subsequent breach. Miscellaneous These Terms, together with the Privacy Policy and Cayton visitor agreements , constitute the entire agreement between you and the Cayton and supersede all prior and contemporaneous written or oral agreements, proposals or communications with respect to the subject matter herein between you and the Cayton.

In the event of our bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization, receivership, or assignment for the benefit of creditors, or the application of laws, or equitably principles affecting creditors’ rights generally, we may not be able to control how your personal information is treated, transferred, or used. Our failure or delay to exercise, in any way, any right herein shall not be deemed a waiver of any further rights hereunder. Except as specified in these Terms, the Cayton’s support staff or other employees do not have the authority to amend any of this Terms or to bind the Cayton to any legal or other obligation not already set forth in this Terms. Force Majeure The Cayton will not be liable for failing to perform under these Terms by the occurrence of any event beyond its reasonable control, including, without limitation, a labor disturbance, an internet outage or interruption of service, a communications outage, failure by a service provider to the Cayton to perform, fire, terrorism, natural disaster, pandemic, or war. Changes to These Terms We reserve the right, at our sole discretion, to modify or replace these Terms at any time. If a revision is material, we will make reasonable efforts to provide at least 30 days' notice prior to any new terms taking effect. What constitutes a material change will be determined at our sole discretion.
