Governing Law
These terms and your use of the website are governed by the laws of the State of Delaware, without regard to its conflict-of-laws rules. Users' access may also be subject to applicable local, state, national, and international laws and regulations.
Dispute Resolution
Users must first attempt formal dispute resolution by contacting Berry Good Media directly.
Mediation: If the dispute remains unresolved, it will proceed to a 30-day mediation period requiring at least 10 hours of commitment from each party under United States Arbitration & Mediation procedures. Costs are split equally between parties.
Arbitration: If mediation fails, the dispute will proceed to binding arbitration in the governing law jurisdiction. The company may bring proceedings in courts where either the user or company resides.

The company provides no warranty regarding website operation, availability, information accuracy, uninterrupted or bug-free service, information reliability or currency, or freedom from viruses, malware, trojans, or harmful code.
Some jurisdictions prohibit certain warranty exclusions. These exclusions apply to the maximum extent permitted under applicable law.
Indemnification
To the extent permitted by law, you agree to indemnify and hold Berry Good Media harmless from claims brought by third parties, and the resulting losses and damages, to the extent they arise from:

Miscellaneous
These terms, together with our Privacy Policy, are the entire agreement between you and Berry Good Media regarding your use of the website. Any separate written agreement between you and Berry Good Media for advertising or other services governs those services.

These terms apply to the maximum extent permitted by applicable law. Berry Good Media may assign its rights and obligations under these terms. We are not liable for losses arising from events beyond our reasonable control.
If any provision is found to be unlawful or unenforceable, that provision is severable and does not affect the remaining terms. These terms do not create any partnership, employment, or agency relationship between you and Berry Good Media.
In the event of any dispute regarding interpretation, the English language text shall prevail over any translations.
