SPECIAL JURISDICTIONAL ISSUES.
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.
If you are a California resident, you waive California Civil Code Section 1542 which reads: “a
general release does not extend to claims which the creditor does not know or suspect to exist in
his favor at the time of executing the release, which if known by him must have materially
affected his settlement with the debtor.”
GOVERNING LAW.
These Terms of Use shall be governed and construed by the laws of the State of California,
without regard to its choice of law rules. You agree that, by entering into these Terms of Use and
accessing and/or using the Site, you are transacting business in the State of California and are
subject to jurisdiction in its courts. Any legal or equitable action arising from these Terms of Use
or in connection with the Site shall be commenced and maintained in a court of competent
subject matter jurisdiction within the State of California, and you consent to personal jurisdiction
and venue in any such court. In the event it is held that jurisdiction or venue is wanting in such a
court, an action then may be commenced in any other court having proper jurisdiction under
applicable statutes and court rules. In the event of any dispute adjudicated between the parties,
whether in litigation or permitted appeal, the prevailing party shall be entitled to recover from the
party not prevailing its reasonable attorneys’ fees and costs incurred in such proceeding. The
parties agree that neither may bring a claim or assert a cause of action against the other, in any
forum or manner, more than one (1) year after the cause of action accrued, except where the
party could not have reasonably discovered the wrong giving rise to the claim within the basic
facts supporting the claim within one (1) year.
OTHER TERMS.
These Terms of Use constitute the entire agreement between you and OTTO Golf in connection
with the subject matter hereof. The waiver or any modifications of any provision of this Terms of
Use or any right, power or remedy hereunder shall not be effective unless made in writing and
signed by OTTO Golf. No failure or delay by OTTO Golf in exercising any right, power or
remedy with respect to any of its rights hereunder shall operate as a waiver thereof. If a court of
competent jurisdiction finds any provision of these Terms to be invalid, the parties nevertheless
agree that the court should endeavor to give effect to the parties’ intentions as reflected in the
provision, and the other provisions of these Terms of Use remain in full force and effect. Charity
Valet shall have no liability whatever for delays or interruptions in delivery or accessibility of
any portion of the Site, interruptions of service or other breach of these Terms of Use due to fire,
explosion, lightning, power surge or failure, water, acts of God, war, civil disturbance, terrorism,
