General

These Terms, which include the Privacy Statement, are the complete agreement between you and Innovation for Justice regarding your use of our Site, supersede all other agreements (oral or written) between you and Innovation for Justice. These Terms are governed by and should be construed according to the laws of Arizona applicable to agreements made and performed in Arizona, unless doing so would lead to the application of the laws of another jurisdiction.

You may not assign your rights under these Terms without Innovation for Justice’s prior written consent, and any attempted assignment will be null and void. If a court of competent jurisdiction determines that any provision of these Terms is unenforceable for any reason, then that provision will be deleted (or, if possible, modified in a manner that will reflect the original intent as closely as possible) and the remaining provisions will be enforceable to the fullest extent permitted by law. The failure of a party to assert any right under these Terms will not be considered a waiver of that party’s right unless the waiver is in writing. The term “including” in these Terms is intended to be illustrative and means “including without limitation.”
