Terms and Conditions of Use

Please carefully review this Agreement before using the Mobile App, Creditgenie.com or the Services, or accessing any data thereon. If you do not agree to these terms, you may not access or use the Mobile App, Creditgenie.com or the Services. To use the Mobile App, Creditgenie.com, or the Services and to accept the Agreement, you must 1) be a citizen or legal resident of the United States, 2) be at least 18 years old, 3) agree to only have one Credit Genie account, which must be in your real name; and 4) not be prohibited by law from using the Mobile App, Creditgenie.com or the Services. Creating an account with false information is a violation of our terms, including accounts registered on behalf of others or persons under the age of 18, and will result in the termination of your access to Credit Genie.

Credit Genie reserves the right to amend this Agreement at any time and will notify you of any such changes by posting the revised Agreement on its website, Creditgenie.com. You should check this Agreement on Creditgenie.com periodically for changes. All changes shall be effective upon posting. We will date the terms with the last day of revision. Your continued use of the Mobile App, Creditgenie.com or the Services after any change to this Agreement constitutes your agreement to be bound by any such changes. Credit Genie may terminate, suspend, change, or restrict access to all or any part of the Mobile App, Creditgenie.com or the Services without notice or liability.

Credit Genie maintains a Privacy Policy that details how we handle and protect your data. We fully incorporate our Privacy Policy into this Agreement. Note that we reserve the right to update the Privacy Policy at our discretion and that any changes made to our Privacy Policy are effective once posted to our website, Creditgenie.com.

To access and use the Mobile App and Services, you must have a mobile device with access to the Internet running either Apple iOS 10.3 or higher, or Android 4.1 or higher. You must also have a valid email address and sufficient storage space to install any required mobile application. Credit Genie's mobile applications are available on the Apple App Store (for Apple devices) and Google Play Store (for Android devices).

To access Credit Genie's Services, you must create a Mobile App user account with Credit Genie. This process will include the creation of a Login ID and password to access the Mobile App and the Services. When you sign up for a user account, you agree to provide accurate, current, and complete information — such as your name, mailing address, and email address – as may be prompted by any registration forms available through the Mobile App, in connection with the Services or as otherwise requested by Credit Genie for such information ("User Information"). You further represent that you are a legal owner of, and that you are authorized to provide us with, all User Information and other information necessary to facilitate your use of the Mobile App and Services. In order to use certain Services, Credit Genie may be required to verify your identity. You authorize us to make any inquiries we consider necessary to validate your identity. If you do not respond to such inquiries or we cannot verify your identity, we can refuse to allow you to use the Mobile App and/or Services. Should any of your User Information change, you agree that you will update this information as soon as possible. To update your User Information, you may go to the Profile section of the Credit Genie app, click on "Settings," and update your User Information accordingly.

Should you believe or have reason to believe that any of your User Information, including your Login ID and/or password, has been compromised, or that another person is accessing your user account through some other means, you agree to notify us as soon as possible by submitting a help request through the following link: https://creditgenie.zendesk.com/hc/en-us/requests/new.

Credit Genie offers a variety of services and features collectively referred to in this Agreement as the "Services." Not all Services are available in all states. These Services include:

Personal Financial Management Services – A suite of services and features you can subscribe to that can assist you in better understanding your finances, avoiding overdrafts, and better managing your debt. See Section 8 for terms and details.

Advance Service – Free Advance of funds to help you cover emergency expenses or to help you avoid overdrafts on your bank account. See Section 9 for terms and details. Note: Credit Genie Advances are not loans.

To use the Services, you must direct Credit Genie to retrieve your account transaction history, balance information, and/or other information maintained by third parties with which you have relationships, maintain accounts or engage in financial transactions ("Third-Party Account Information"). Credit Genie works with one or more third-party service providers to access this Third-Party Account Information. We will use this information to provide you with the Services you request, for our own internal business purposes and to offer you other Credit Genie products and services that may be of interest to you. By using the Services, you authorize Credit Genie to access this information maintained by identified third parties, on your behalf as your agent, and you expressly authorize such third parties to disclose your information to us. By agreeing to this Agreement, you are also agreeing that you are responsible for keeping any passwords and usernames you provide to us so we can retrieve this Third-Party Account Information secure, and for keeping those passwords and usernames up to date in the Mobile App. Credit Genie does not review the Third-Party Account Information for accuracy, legality, or non-infringement, and Credit Genie is not responsible for your Third-Party Account Information or products and services offered by or on third-party sites. You acknowledge that any Third-Party Account Information that is displayed through the Services will be the information we most recently accessed, and that this information may not reflect pending transactions or other recent activity.

If you subscribe to the Personal Financial Management Services, you will have access to "Insights, "Alerts", and "Offers". With Insights, we present you with information on your spending to help you better understand and monitor your finances. With "Alerts," we will monitor your linked bank account held at a depository institution (a "Linked Account") and let you know when the balance in your Linked Account falls below a certain threshold to help you avoid overdrafts, returned transactions, and bank fees. With "Offers," we display products from third-party providers that may be relevant to you. In all cases, you will need to "opt in" to receive these third-party offers, and Credit Genie may receive compensation from these third parties for connecting you with them.

Many features of the Services require providing Credit Genie with access to your banking information via Plaid and designating a "Linked Account" and associated debit card you would like Credit Genie to monitor to help avoid overdrafts, deposit and repay Advances you request, and debit the recurring "Bank Connection Fee" for maintaining your bank connection.

If you attempt to use a feature within the Mobile App that requires a Linked Account, you will be prompted to complete the Plaid connection process and identify the bank account you would like to use as your Linked Account. By connecting a Linked Account, you agree to a biweekly "Bank Connection Fee". Please refer to Section 8.3 for more information.

There is a recurring fee ("Bank Connection Fee") to maintain a connection to your Linked Account and banking information. By connecting a Linked Account to Credit Genie, you authorize Credit Genie to debit the Bank Connection Fee from your Linked Account or a debit card associated with your Linked Account ("Linked Debit Card") after a trial period.

The specific amount of the Bank Connection Fee and the frequency with which it will be charged will be disclosed to you through the Mobile App when you begin the process of establishing a connection via Plaid and designating a Linked Account. Credit Genie will attempt to avoid debiting your Linked Account or Linked Debit Card for the Bank Connection Fee if we detect that you have insufficient funds in your Linked Account to cover the amount owed. Additionally, we will not debit your Linked Account or Linked Debit Card for the Bank Connection Fee if we are unable to view the current balance of your Linked Account prior to initiating the payment. Although we will attempt to avoid debiting your Linked Account or Linked Debit Card if you do not have sufficient funds, Credit Genie makes no warranties that an overdraft will not occur or that your bank will not charge you fees. In addition, if we do not debit your Linked Account or Linked Debit Card because you do not have sufficient funds, or if a payment is returned by your bank or is otherwise unsuccessful, Credit Genie reserves the right to terminate your access to the Services that require access to your banking information or a Linked Account.

Credit Genie will stop any recurring billing activity after your cancellation has been completed. Cancelling your bank connection and disconnecting your Linked Account can take up to 24 hours to process after you make the request from the Mobile App or through Plaid. See Section 8.4 for information on cancelling your bank connection.

As long as you do not have an outstanding Advance, you may choose to cancel your bank connection and disconnect your Linked Account from Credit Genie by visiting the "Settings" screen in the Mobile App and tapping on "Disconnect bank account." If you have an outstanding Advance, the option to cancel your bank connection will not be available to you through the Mobile App until the Advance is repaid. During this period, if you wish to cancel your bank connection fee, you can submit a request at the following link: https://creditgenie.zendesk.com/hc/en-us/requests/new.

You can also cancel your bank connection at any time through my.plaid.com. Your connection will automatically be cancelled if Credit Genie deletes or disables your Mobile App user account.

You will no longer be charged any Bank Connection Fees after your bank connection is cancelled.

Please note that simply uninstalling or deleting the Mobile App from your mobile device will not cancel your bank connection or stop the Bank Connection Fee. You must cancel your bank connection by one of the methods described above.

Credit Genie also offers an advance based on your anticipated income (each an "Advance") as part of its "Advance Service." The Advance Service is not currently available to residents of Maryland, Nevada, Connecticut, Hawaii, or Washington, D.C. If you have subscribed to the Personal Financial Management Services and we detect that your account balance in your Linked Account is below a certain threshold we will alert you via push notifications. Credit Genie is not responsible for, nor assumes any liability for errors or omissions in sending such alerts. You may also request an Advance at any time through the Mobile App. Eligible users requesting an Advance will then be offered the opportunity to receive a free Advance to their Linked Account or debit card. You may also log in to the Mobile App and request an Advance at any time. In all cases, you must affirmatively choose to receive an Advance. The amount of each Advance you are eligible for is based on, among other things, whether you have established a direct deposit into your Linked Account and an analysis of your deposits and transaction history. You may only receive one Advance at a time, and you must repay any outstanding Advance before you will be eligible to receive another. We reserve the right to adjust Advance amounts and our eligibility criteria at any time.

As noted above, all Advances are free, and if you wish to access the Advance without paying a "Bank Connection Fee," you can submit a request at the following link: https://creditgenie.zendesk.com/hc/en-us/requests/new. For your request to be processed, you will need to have a Credit Genie account with a linked bank account. When submitting the request, select "bank fee" as the"topic " and provide the following description: "I would like to access the advance service without paying a bank connection fee." As part of the request, you will also need to provide the email and phone number that matches your Credit Genie account. We will process your request within 3 full business days and waive any bank connection fees for valid requests. You may also choose to make voluntary payments referred to as "Tips" in appreciation of the Advance Service provided. In no way does a "Tip" alter your eligibility to receive an Advance, your ability to access an Advance, or the amount of any Advance you are eligible for. Individual customer "Tips" are capped at $150 in a calendar year. You will generally receive your requested Advance, if approved, within one to two business days, depending on processing times.

When you request an Advance, you will be given the option to receive your Advance by either a standard Automated Clearing House ("ACH") transfer, through an Expedited Automated Clearing House ("ACH") transfer or through a Debit Card Transfer to a linked debit card. Standard ACH transfers are free and will generally appear in your Linked Account between one (1) to three (3) business days. Expedited Automated Clearing House ("ACH") transfers are subject to an Express Delivery Fee and will usually be credited to your Linked Account within one (1) business day. Debit Card Transfers are subject to an Instant Delivery Fee and will appear on your linked debit card within thirty (30) minutes.

If you choose to receive your Advance through an Expedited Automated Clearing House ('ACH') transfer or through the Debit Card Transfer, the Delivery Fee will be payable at the time you repay the Advance.

Each Advance, including any optional tips and/or Express Delivery Fees, ("Total Advance Amount") is repayable at the same time. There is no mandatory minimum or maximum repayment time frame. We will assign you a repayment date based on our estimation of when you will receive your next deposit into your Linked Account ("Repayment Date"). We will disclose the Total Advance Amount and Repayment Date to you before you accept an Advance. If you need assistance with your Repayment Date, you can submit a help request through the following link: https://creditgenie.zendesk.com/hc/en-us/requests/new.

By accepting an Advance, you authorize us to debit your Linked Account or debit card associated with your Linked Account according to the following terms:

• - We will debit your Linked Account or debit card on the Repayment Date, for the Total Advance Amount, unless we determine you do not have sufficient funds available in your Linked Account based on banking data reported through our Plaid bank connection.
• - If (i) we do not process your repayment because we have determined you do not have sufficient funds in your Linked Account, (ii) your repayment transaction utilizing a debit card is declined, or (iii) we are otherwise unable to process your repayment on the Repayment Date, we will instead attempt to debit smaller amounts from your Linked Account within 90 days from the date you accepted the Advance until the Total Advance Amount has been repaid. How we calculate the amount of these smaller debits, the number of smaller debits, and the timing of the smaller debits will be disclosed to you and authorized by you through the App before you accept the Advance.
• - If there is still a remaining outstanding Advance amount left after 90 days, we will automatically reduce the remaining amount by 2/3rds, or approximately 66%, and clear the rest in an effort to assist you. You will not be asked to repay the amount cleared. We will then attempt to debit this reduced amount from your Linked Account over the following 30 days the next time we detect a deposit made to your Linked Account as reported by Plaid.
• - In the event there is still a remaining outstanding Advance amount left after 120 days, we will clear the entire remaining amount and you will not be asked to repay it. You may also continue to be eligible to request future Advances, but the size and/or frequency of future Advances you are eligible for may be affected.
• - Each of the debit transactions described above will be authorized by you, and processed by us, as separate, one-time debit transactions.

In all cases, Credit Genie warrants that it has no legal or contractual claim against you based on a failure to repay an Advance and you may revoke your authorization for us to debit your Linked Account at any time. Please follow the process described in Section 11 to cancel your authorization. With respect to a failure to repay an Advance, Credit Genie warrants it will not engage in any debt collection activities, place the amount owed with or sell to a third party, or report you to a consumer reporting agency. However, Credit Genie reserves the right to not provide you with further Advances while any amount remains unpaid under the Advance Service.

Credit Genie does not waive any rights regarding fraudulent or illegal activity, and Credit Genie will pursue instances of fraud. Although Credit Genie is helping users avoid overdraft fees, Credit Genie is not responsible for any overdraft fees, over-the-limit fees, insufficient fund charges, or any other bank fees that result from your failure to maintain a sufficient balance in your Linked Account. Credit Genie monitors your balance and will attempt to avoid debiting your account if you do not have sufficient funds, but Credit Genie makes no warranties that an overdraft will not occur or that your bank will not charge you fees.

By connecting a bank account to Credit Genie, you authorize us to electronically debit the Bank Connection Fee from your Linked Bank Account or Linked Debit Card on a recurring basis. You will select your Linked Account at the time you connect your bank account to Credit Genie through the Mobile App. The amount, billing date and frequency of the Bank Connection Fee will be communicated to you in the Mobile App prior to confirming your connection to a Linked Account. Once confirmed by you in the Mobile App, the Bank Connection Fee will be debited from your Linked Account or Linked Debit Card on your recurring billing schedule until you disconnect your Linked Account.

As applicable, you also authorize Credit Genie to electronically debit and credit your Linked Account or Linked Debit Card to correct erroneous debits and credits. You acknowledge that, as applicable, the electronic authorizations contained in this Section represent your written authorizations for Automated Clearing House ("ACH") and debit card transactions as provided herein and will remain in full force and effect until you notify Credit Genie that you wish to revoke your authorization by submitting a help request through the following link: https://creditgenie.zendesk.com/hc/en-us/requests/new.

You must notify Credit Genie at least three (3) full business days before the scheduled debit date in order to cancel that debit. When you submit a help request, please include the email and telephone number associated with your Mobile App user account. Failure to provide correct and complete information may make it impossible for Credit Genie to stop the withdrawal of the preauthorized transaction. You agree to indemnify and hold Credit Genie harmless from and against any loss incurred as a result of its withdrawal of an ACH or debit card transaction from your Linked Account if any of the information relied upon in your request to revoke authorization is incorrect or incomplete. If you have followed the instructions in this section to notify Credit Genie of your desire to revoke your authorization at least three (3) full business days before the scheduled debit date, Credit Genie will be liable for your losses or damages directly caused by our failure to stop the transaction. If we do not receive notice at least three (3) full business days before the scheduled debit date, we may attempt, at our sole discretion, to cancel the transaction. However, we assume no responsibility for our failure to do so. You warrant and represent to Credit Genie that you have the right to authorize us to charge and credit your Linked Account and Linked Debit Card for payments due to us under this Agreement. In no event will our liability to you exceed the amount of the debit transaction and any bank fees you incur as a direct result of the debit transaction. If you have a joint Linked Account, you represent and warrant that you have the authority to (a) bind the absent accountholder; and (b) enter into this Agreement independently. You agree to indemnify and hold Credit Genie harmless from any claims by any other owner of the Linked Account.

You represent that you are capable of saving or otherwise storing a copy of this electronic authorization for your records, and the credit and debit transactions you request comply with applicable law.

By choosing to use the Mobile App or the Services, you will receive, from time to time, disclosures, notices, documents, and any other communications about our Services, the Mobile App, or Credit Genie from Credit Genie ("Communications"). We can only give you the benefits of our Services by conducting business through the Internet, and therefore we need you to consent to receiving Communications electronically. This section informs you of your rights when receiving electronic Communications from us. We may discontinue electronic provision of Communications at any time at our sole discretion.

By accepting this Agreement, you agree that electronic Communications shall be considered "in writing" and have the same meaning and effect as if provided in paper form, unless you have withdrawn your consent to receive Communications electronically as stated below.

The legal validity and enforceability of prior Communications delivered in electronic form will not be affected by your withdrawal of consent. You also agree to pay any amount owed to Credit Genie, such as any outstanding Bank Connection Fees, even if you withdraw your consent and we close or limit access to the Mobile App and/or the Services.

As noted above, you can update your User Information in the Mobile App or by submitting a help request through the following link: https://creditgenie.zendesk.com/hc/en-us/requests/new.

YOU HAVE READ THIS PROVISION CAREFULLY AND UNDERSTAND THAT IT LIMITS YOUR RIGHTS IN THE EVENT OF A DISPUTE BETWEEN YOU AND US. YOU UNDERSTAND THAT YOU HAVE THE RIGHT TO REJECT THIS PROVISION AS PROVIDED IN SECTION 21.3 BELOW.

You and Credit Genie agree that the sole and exclusive forum and remedy for resolution of a Claim be final and binding arbitration pursuant to this Section 21 (the "Arbitration Provision"), unless you opt out as provided in Section 21.3 below. As used in this Arbitration Provision, "Claim" shall include any past, present, or future claim, dispute, or controversy involving you (or persons claiming through or connected with you), on the one hand, and us on the other hand, relating to or arising out of this Agreement, and/or the activities or relationships that involve, lead to, or result from this Agreement, including (except to the extent provided otherwise in the last sentence of Section 21.8 below) the validity or enforceability of this Arbitration Provision, any part thereof, or the entire Agreement. Claims are subject to arbitration regardless of whether they arise from a contract; tort (intentional or otherwise); constitution, statute, common law, or principles of equity; or otherwise. Claims include matters arising as initial claims, counter‐claims, cross-claims, third-party claims, or otherwise. Please note that you may continue to assert Claims in small claims court, if your Claims qualify and so long as the matter remains in such court and advances only on an individual (non-class, non-representative) basis. The scope of this Arbitration Provision is to be given the broadest possible interpretation that is enforceable.

This Arbitration Provision is made pursuant to a transaction involving interstate commerce and shall be governed by and enforceable under the Federal Arbitration Act (the "FAA"). The arbitrator will apply substantive law consistent with the FAA and applicable statutes of limitations. The arbitrator may award damages or other types of relief permitted by applicable substantive law, subject to the limitations set forth in this Arbitration Provision. The arbitrator will not be bound by judicial rules of procedure and evidence that would apply in a court. The arbitrator shall take steps to reasonably protect confidential information.

You may opt out of this Arbitration Provision for all purposes by sending an arbitration opt-out notice to legal@creditgenie.com, within 60 days of the date of your electronic acceptance of the terms of this Agreement. The opt-out notice must clearly state that you are rejecting arbitration; identify the Agreement to which it applies by date; provide your name, address, and social security number; and be signed by you. You may send an opt-out notice in any manner you see fit as long as it is received at the specified address within the specified time. No other methods can be used to opt out of this Arbitration Provision. If the opt-out notice is sent on your behalf by a third party, such a third party must include evidence of his or her authority to submit the opt-out notice on your behalf.

If a Claim arises, our goal is to learn about and address your concerns and, if we are unable to do so to your satisfaction, to provide you with a neutral and cost-effective means of resolving the dispute quickly. You agree that before filing any claim in arbitration, you may submit Claims by sending an email to legal@creditgenie.com at any time.

The party initiating arbitration shall do so with the American Arbitration Association ("AAA") or Judicial Alternatives and Mediation Services ("JAMS"). The arbitration shall be conducted according to, and the location of the arbitration shall be determined in accordance with, the rules and policies of the administrator selected, except to the extent the rules conflict with this Arbitration Provision or any countervailing law. If you have any questions concerning the AAA or would like to obtain a copy of the AAA arbitration rules, you may call 1(800) 778-7879 or visit the AAA's website at: www.adr.org. If you have any questions concerning JAMS or would like to obtain a copy of the JAMS arbitration rules, you may call 1(800) 352-5267 or visit their website at: www.jamsadr.com. In the case of a conflict between the rules and policies of the administrator and this Arbitration Provision, this Arbitration Provision shall control, subject to countervailing law, unless all parties to the arbitration consent to have the rules and policies of the administrator apply. The arbitration will be held in the United States county where you live or work, or any other location we agree to.

If we elect arbitration, we shall pay all the administrator's filing costs and administrative fees (other than hearing fees). If you elect arbitration, filing costs and administrative fees (other than hearing fees) shall be paid in accordance with the rules of the administrator selected, or in accordance with countervailing law if contrary to the administrator's rules. We shall pay the administrator's hearing fees for one full day of arbitration hearings. Fees for hearings that exceed one day will be paid by the party requesting the hearing unless the administrator's rules or applicable law require otherwise, or you request that we pay them and we agree to do so. Each party shall bear the expense of its own attorneys' fees, except as otherwise provided by law. If a statute gives you the right to recover any of these fees, these statutory rights shall apply in the arbitration notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein.

Within 30 days of a final award by the arbitrator, any party may appeal the award for reconsideration by a three-arbitrator panel selected according to the rules of the arbitrator administrator. In the event of such an appeal, any opposing party may cross-appeal within 30 days after notice of the appeal. The panel will reconsider de novo all aspects of the initial award that are appealed. Costs and conduct of any appeal shall be governed by this Arbitration Provision and the administrator's rules, in the same way as the initial arbitration proceeding. Any award by the individual arbitrator that is not subject to appeal, and any panel award on appeal, shall be final and binding, except for any appeal right under the Federal Arbitration Act ("FAA"), and may be entered as a judgment in any court of competent jurisdiction.

NO ARBITRATION SHALL PROCEED ON A CLASS, REPRESENTATIVE, OR COLLECTIVE BASIS (INCLUDING AS PRIVATE ATTORNEY GENERAL ON BEHALF OF OTHERS), EVEN IF THE CLAIM OR CLAIMS THAT ARE THE SUBJECT OF THE ARBITRATION HAD PREVIOUSLY BEEN ASSERTED (OR COULD HAVE BEEN ASSERTED) IN A COURT AS CLASS REPRESENTATIVE, OR COLLECTIVE ACTIONS IN A COURT. Unless consented to in writing by all parties to the arbitration, no party to the arbitration may join, consolidate, or otherwise bring claims for or on behalf of two or more individuals or unrelated corporate entities in the same arbitration unless those persons are parties to a single transaction. Except for claims seeking public injunctive relief and unless consented to in writing by all parties to the arbitration, an award in arbitration shall determine the rights and obligations of the named parties only, and only with respect to the claims in arbitration, and shall not (a) determine the rights, obligations, or interests of anyone other than a named party, or resolve any Claim of anyone other than a named party; nor (b) make an award for the benefit of, or against, anyone other than a named party. No administrator or arbitrator shall have the power or authority to waive, modify, or fail to enforce this Section 21.8, and any attempt to do so, whether by rule, policy, arbitration decision, or otherwise, shall be invalid and unenforceable. Any challenge to the validity of this Section 21.8 shall be determined exclusively by a court and not by the administrator or any arbitrator.

This Arbitration Provision shall survive the termination of this Agreement. If any portion of this Arbitration Provision other than Section 21.8 is deemed invalid or unenforceable, the remaining portions of this Arbitration Provision shall nevertheless remain valid and in force. If there is a final judicial determination that applicable law precludes enforcement of this Arbitration Provision's limitations as to a particular claim for relief or a particular term, then that claim (and only that claim) or that term (and only that term) must be severed from the Arbitration Provision and may be brought in court. If an arbitration is brought on a class, representative, or collective basis, and the limitations on such proceedings in Section 21.8 are finally adjudicated pursuant to the last sentence of Section 21.8 to be unenforceable, then no arbitration shall be had. In no event shall any invalidation be deemed to authorize an arbitrator to determine Claims or make awards beyond those authorized in this Arbitration Provision.

Except as otherwise required by applicable law, in the event that this Arbitration Provision is found not to apply to you or your Claim, you and Credit Genie agree that any judicial proceeding (other than small claims actions) will be brought in the federal or state courts of Los Angeles County, California. Both you and Credit Genie consent to the venue and personal jurisdiction there. We both agree to waive our right to a jury trial.

THE PARTIES ACKNOWLEDGE THAT THEY HAVE A RIGHT TO LITIGATE CLAIMS THROUGH A COURT BEFORE A JUDGE OR JURY, BUT WILL NOT HAVE THAT RIGHT IF ANY PARTY ELECTS ARBITRATION PURSUANT TO THIS ARBITRATION PROVISION. THE PARTIES HEREBY KNOWINGLY AND VOLUNTARILY WAIVE THEIR RIGHTS TO LITIGATE SUCH CLAIMS IN A COURT BEFORE A JUDGE OR JURY UPON ELECTION OF ARBITRATION BY ANY PARTY.

Except for Section 24 which is governed by the FAA, this Agreement and all Claims are governed by the laws of the State of Delaware without regard to conflict-of-law rules.

If any provision of this Agreement is found to be invalid, unlawful, void, or unenforceable by either an arbitrator or a court of competent jurisdiction, this Agreement's remaining provisions shall be enforced to the fullest extent possible, and the remaining provisions of the Agreement shall remain in full force and effect.

You agree that if Credit Genie does not enforce any of its legal rights or remedies under this Agreement, or other legal rights or remedies Credit Genie has under applicable laws, this shall not be construed as a formal waiver of those rights or remedies or any other rights in any way whatsoever.
