This is a contract between you and Kampus Konnect, LLC, and we want you to understand both your rights and ours before you use Kampus Konnect’s website or mobile application (“Kampus Konnect” or the “App”). Please read these Terms carefully before using the App, as accessing, viewing, or using it legally binds you to this agreement. You should also review our Community Guidelines and Privacy Policy, which are incorporated into these Terms.
If you subscribe to a service for a term (“Initial Term”), your subscription will automatically renew for additional periods of the same duration at Kampus Konnect’s then-current fee unless canceled in accordance with Section 6 below. Please be aware that if you subscribe to services for a term, then the terms of your subscription will be automatically renewed for additional periods of the same duration as the Initial Term at Kampus Konnect’s then-current fee for such services unless you cancel your subscription in accordance with Section 6 below.
You should also note that Section 14 of these Terms contains provisions governing how claims that you and Kampus Konnect, LLC have against each other are resolved. In particular, it contains an arbitration agreement that will, with limited exceptions, require disputes between us to be submitted to binding and final arbitration. You have a right to opt out of the arbitration agreement pursuant to Section 14 below. If you do not opt out of the arbitration agreement in accordance with Section 14, (1) you will only be permitted to pursue claims and seek relief against us on an individual basis only; and (2) you are waiving your right to seek relief in a court of law and to have a jury trial on your claims.
California subscribers: You may cancel your subscription, without penalty or obligation, at any time prior to midnight of the third business day following the date you subscribed.

In this agreement, "content" includes, without limitation, all text, images, video, audio, or other material on our Services, including information on users' profiles and in direct messages between users.
3a. There is certain content we can’t allow on Kampus Konnect
Our Community Guidelines form part of these Terms and outline what content and conduct is accepted on and off our App. You agree to comply with our Community Guidelines as may be updated from time to time.
We want our users to be able to express themselves as much as possible on Kampus Konnect, but we have to impose restrictions on certain content which:
3b. Your Content
You are responsible for Your Content. Don’t share anything that you wouldn’t want others to see, that would violate this Agreement, or that may expose you or us to legal liability.
You agree that Your Content must comply with our Community Guidelines which may be updated from time to time. As Your Content is unique, you are responsible and liable for Your Content. You will indemnify, defend, release, and hold us harmless from any claims made in connection with Your Content. So, watch what you post because it’s a representation of you!
The content included on your individual profile should be relevant to the intended use of our Services. You may not display any personal contact or banking information on your individual profile page whether in relation to you or any other person (for example, names, home addresses or postcodes, telephone numbers, email addresses, URLs, credit/debit card, or other banking details). If you do choose to reveal any personal information about yourself to other users, whether via email or otherwise, it is at your own risk. We encourage you to use the same caution in disclosing details about yourself to third parties online as you would under any other circumstances.
As Kampus Konnect is a public community, Your Content will be visible to other users of the App all around the world - so make sure you are comfortable sharing Your Content before you post. As such, you agree that Your Content may be viewed by other users and any person visiting, participating in, or who is sent a link to the App (e.g. individuals who receive a link to a user’s profile or shared content from other Kampus Konnect Users). By uploading Your Content on Kampus Konnect, you represent and warrant to us that you have all necessary rights and licenses to do so, and automatically grant us a non-exclusive, royalty-free, perpetual, worldwide license to use Your Content in any way (including, without limitation, editing, copying, modifying, adapting, translating, reformatting, creating derivative works from, incorporating into other works, advertising, distributing and otherwise making available to the general public such Content, whether in whole or in part and in any format or medium currently known or developed in the future).
We may provide tools and features to enhance individual expression through Your Content and Member Content (described in Section 3b), and we’re constantly developing new technologies to improve our Services. Certain tools or features may allow you to generate or enhance content based on Your Content. This is still Your Content, and you are responsible for it and its accuracy, as well as your use of it on our Services and any and all decisions made, actions taken, and failures to take action based on Your Content. Be careful in choosing and sharing Your Content.
You understand and agree that we may monitor or review Your Content, and we have the right to remove, delete, edit, limit, or block or prevent access to any of Your Content at any time at our sole discretion. Furthermore, you understand and agree that we have no obligation to display or review Your Content.
We may assign and/or sub-license the above license to our affiliates and successors without any further approval by you.
We do not have any obligation to store Your Content - if it’s important, you should make a copy.
So that we can prevent the unconsented use of Your Content by other members or third parties outside of Kampus Konnect, you authorize us to act on your behalf with respect to such infringing and/or unauthorized uses. This expressly includes the authority, but not the obligation, for us to send takedown notices (including, without limitation, pursuant to 17 U.S.C. § 512(c)(3) (i.e., DMCA Takedown Notices)) on your behalf if Your Content is taken and used by third parties outside of Kampus Konnect.
3c. Member Content
While you will have access to Member Content, it is not yours and you may not copy or use Member Content for any purpose except as contemplated by these Terms.
Other members of Kampus Konnect will also share content via the App. Member Content belongs to the user who posted the content and is stored on our servers and displayed via the App at the direction of the user providing the Member Content.
You do not have any rights in relation to other users’ Member Content, and you may only use other Kampus Konnect users’ personal information to the extent that your use of it matches Kampus Konnect’s purpose of allowing people to meet one another. You may not use other users’ information for commercial purposes, to spam, to harass, stalk, or to make unlawful threats. We reserve the right to terminate your Account if you misuse other users’ information.
Member Content is subject to the terms and conditions of Sections 512(c) and/or 512(d) of the Digital Millennium Copyright Act 1998. If you have a complaint about Member Content, please see the Digital Millennium Copyright Act section below for more information.
3d. Our Affiliate Content and Our Content
Kampus Konnect owns all other content on our Services.
All content shared on the app belongs to Kampus Konnect. Additionally, any other text, content, graphics, user interfaces, trademarks, logos, sounds, artwork, and other intellectual property appearing on Kampus Konnect, as well as Kampus Konnect software and database(s), are owned, controlled, or licensed by us and are protected by copyright, trademark, data, database rights, and/or other intellectual property law rights.

We reserve all other rights.
No Obligation to Pre-Screen Content

4. RESTRICTIONS ON THE APP
You agree to:
You agree that you will not:
We take the respect of all members of the Kampus Konnect community seriously. You can report any abuse or complain about Member Content by contacting us and outlining the abuse and/or complaint. You can also report a user directly from a profile or in chat by clicking the ‘Block & Report’ link. We reserve the right to investigate any possible violations of these Terms, any Kampus Konnect user’s rights, or any third-party rights, and we may, in our sole discretion, immediately terminate any user’s right to use the App without prior notice, as set out further in Section 1 above, and/or remove any improper, infringing, or otherwise unauthorized Member Content submitted to the App.
We don’t control any of the things our users say or do, so you are solely responsible for your interactions with other users of the App.
IN CERTAIN CIRCUMSTANCES, SUCH AS IN RESPONSE TO MEMBER-GENERATED OR PRESS REPORTS OF SUSPECTED MISCONDUCT, KAMPUS KONNECT, LLC MAY INVESTIGATE WHETHER A MEMBER HAS A CRIMINAL HISTORY, WHICH MAY, DEPENDING ON THE CIRCUMSTANCES, INCLUDE SEARCHING SEX OFFENDER REGISTRIES OR OTHER PUBLIC RECORDS. IF SUCH INVESTIGATIONS IDENTIFY A PERSON WITH A CRIMINAL CONVICTION, KAMPUS KONNECT, LLC MAY USE AVAILABLE INFORMATION TO DETERMINE WHETHER THE PERSON IDENTIFIED BY THE INVESTIGATION IS THE SAME PERSON AS THE MEMBER ABOUT WHOM THE INVESTIGATION WAS CONDUCTED. FOLLOWING ANY SUCH INVESTIGATION, WITH RESPECT TO ANY MEMBER THAT KAMPUS KONNECT, LLC REASONABLY BELIEVES TO HAVE BEEN CONVICTED OF A SEX OFFENCE (SUCH AS SEXUAL ASSAULT OR SEXUAL HARASSMENT, AND INCLUDING ANY REGISTERED SEX OFFENDERS), OR A CONVICTION FOR HUMAN TRAFFICKING, STALKING, KIDNAPPING, CHILD ABUSE, DOMESTIC ABUSE, MURDER, HATE CRIMES, OR TERRORISM OR VIOLENT EXTREMISM, KAMPUS KONNECT, LLC MAY TAKE STEPS TO BLOCK THAT PERSON FROM USING THE SERVICE AND COMMUNICATING WITH OTHER MEMBERS OVER THE PLATFORM. KAMPUS KONNECT, LLC RESERVES THE RIGHT TO BLOCK MEMBERS FOR OTHER OFFENCES, FOR OTHER VIOLATIONS OF THESE TERMS, OR FOR OTHER REASONS IN THEIR SOLE DISCRETION. CRIMINAL BACKGROUND INVESTIGATIONS, WHEN CONDUCTED, ARE NOT TYPICALLY UPDATED BY KAMPUS KONNECT, LLC. ADDITIONALLY, WHILE INVESTIGATIONS FOR CRIMINAL HISTORIES MAY BE CONDUCTED ON SOME MEMBERS, THEY ARE NOT FOOLPROOF AND MOST MEMBERS ARE NOT EXPECTED TO BE SUBJECT TO ANY FORM OF CHECK FOR CRIMINAL HISTORIES. ANY INVESTIGATIONS FOR CRIMINAL HISTORIES MAY GIVE MEMBERS A FALSE SENSE OF SECURITY. THE CHECKS FOR CRIMINAL HISTORIES THAT MAY BE CONDUCTED BY KAMPUS KONNECT, LLC ARE NOT A PERFECT SAFETY SOLUTION. CRIMINALS MAY CIRCUMVENT EVEN THE MOST SOPHISTICATED SEARCH TECHNOLOGY. NOT ALL CRIMINAL RECORDS ARE PUBLIC IN ALL STATES AND NOT ALL DATABASES ARE UP TO DATE. ONLY PUBLICLY AVAILABLE CONVICTIONS ARE INCLUDED IN CHECKS, AND CHECKS DO NOT COVER OTHER TYPES OF CONVICTIONS OR ARRESTS OR ANY CONVICTIONS FROM FOREIGN COUNTRIES.
You agree to, and hereby do, release Kampus Konnect, LLC and its successors from any claims, demands, losses, damages, rights, and actions of any kind, including personal injuries, death, and property damage, that either directly or indirectly arise from your interactions with or conduct of other users of the App. If you are a California resident, you hereby waive California Civil Code Section 1542, which states, “A general release does not extend to claims that the creditor or releasing party does not know or suspect to exist in his or her favor at the time of executing the release and that, if known by him or her, would have materially affected his or her settlement with the debtor or released party.” The foregoing release does not apply to any claims, demands, or any losses, damages, rights, and actions of any kind, including personal injuries, death, or property damage for any unconscionable commercial practice by Kampus Konnect, LLC or for such party’s fraud, deception, false, promise, misrepresentation or concealment, suppression or omission of any material fact in connection with the App.
Scraping or replicating any part of the App without our prior consent is expressly prohibited. This includes by any means (automated or otherwise) other than through our currently available, published interfaces - unless you have been specifically allowed to do so in a separate agreement with us.
5. INAPPROPRIATE CONTENT AND MISCONDUCT; REPORTING
Kampus Konnect does not tolerate inappropriate content or behavior on our Services.
We are committed to maintaining a positive and respectful Kampus Konnect community, and we do not tolerate any inappropriate content or misconduct, whether on or off of the Services (including, but not limited to, on services operated by our affiliates). We encourage you to report any inappropriate Member Content or misconduct by other users. You can report a user directly through the "Report User" link on a user's profile or in the messaging experience. You may also email Kampus Konnect Customer Service at contact@Kampuskonnect2.com.
As set forth in our Privacy Policy, we may share data between our affiliates for the safety and security of our users and may take necessary actions if we believe you have violated these Terms, including banning you from our Services and/or our affiliates’ services. You understand and agree that we may not share information with you regarding your account if doing so would potentially impair the safety or privacy of our other users.
Member Content is subject to the terms and conditions of Sections 512(c) and/or 512(d) of the Digital Millennium Copyright Act 1998. To submit a complaint regarding Member Content that may constitute intellectual property infringement, see Section 12 (Digital Millennium Copyright Act) below.
6. COLORADO SAFETY POLICY
In addition to the above terms, if you are a resident of Colorado, the following Safety Policy terms also apply to you:
There is Certain Content We Can’t Allow on Kampus Konnect
Our Community Guidelines form part of these Terms and outline what content and conduct is accepted on and off our App. You agree to comply with our Community Guidelines as may be updated from time to time.
We want our users to be able to express themselves as much as possible on Kampus Konnect, but we have to impose restrictions on certain content which:
7. BACKGROUND CHECK
In certain circumstances, such as in response to member-generated or press reports of suspected misconduct, Kampus Konnect, LLC may investigate whether a member has a criminal history, which may, depending on the circumstances, include searching sex offender registries or other public records. If such investigations identify a person with a criminal conviction, Kampus Konnect, LLC may use available information to determine whether the person identified by the investigation is the same person as the member about whom the investigation was conducted.
Following any such investigation, with respect to any member that Kampus Konnect, LLC reasonably believes to have been convicted of a sex offense (such as sexual assault or sexual harassment, and including any registered sex offenders), or a conviction for human trafficking, stalking, kidnapping, child abuse, domestic abuse, murder, hate crimes, or terrorism or violent extremism, Kampus Konnect, LLC may take steps to block that person from using the service and communicating with other members over the platform. Kampus Konnect, LLC reserves the right to block members for other offenses, or for other violations of these terms, or for other reasons in their sole discretion.
Criminal background investigations, when conducted, are not typically updated by Kampus Konnect, LLC. Additionally, while investigations for criminal histories may be conducted on some members, they are not foolproof, and most members are not expected to be subject to any form of check for criminal histories. Any investigations for criminal histories may give members a false sense of security. The checks for criminal histories that may be conducted by Kampus Konnect, LLC are not a perfect safety solution. Criminals may circumvent even the most sophisticated search technology. Not all criminal records are public in all states, and not all databases are up to date. Only publicly available convictions are included in checks, and checks do not cover other types of convictions or arrests or any convictions from foreign countries.
8. IDENTIFICATION VERIFICATION
To use our service, you must be at least 18 years old or the age of majority to legally enter into a contract under the laws of your home country if that happens to be greater than 18. Please note that we monitor for underage use and we will terminate, suspend, or ask you to verify your Account if we have reason to believe that you may be underage.
When a Member May Be Suspended or Blocked
All members must comply with the platform rules described and referenced in our Community Guidelines. If you behave in a way that goes against Kampus Konnect’s Community Guidelines, values, or otherwise act in any way we believe to be potentially harmful to Kampus Konnect or its members, we may take a range of actions on your account. When determining the penalty for violating our community guidelines, we consider a number of factors.
We may:
When necessary, we also may cooperate with law enforcement to assist in potential criminal investigations related to member conduct.
Your treatment towards others outside of Kampus Konnect app can also result in action against your account. If we’re made aware of harm between members on dates, meetups with friends, via text message or direct messaging platforms, or relevant alleged criminal or harmful conduct committed in your past or outside of Kampus Konnect, we may take action as if it happened on our platform.
You cannot submit appeals, reports, notices, or complaints that are false reports or report for malicious, biased, or other illegitimate reasons.
Appeals Rights and Appeal Process
If you believe that we’ve made a mistake in taking action on your Account or Your Content, you have the option to appeal our decision within a six-month period. If you wish to appeal a decision, please start by taking a moment to read the relevant section of our Community Guidelines. If you still think there has been a mistake in the action taken on your account or content, the best way to appeal is to fill out the appeals form linked in the notification shown to you within the app at the time. Alternatively, you can contact us at contact@Kampuskonnect2.com (please explain why you are appealing our decision, and give as much detail as you can).
User Notice
When you submit a Block & Report, a member of the support team will review it and take action based on Kampus Konnect’s Community Guidelines, which can include a warning or banning them from the app. Kampus Konnect will not tell the person who you reported that you reported them.
Notice Regarding Sexual Conduct
Consent is required at all times. Everyone on Kampus Konnect is expected to discuss and respect boundaries. This includes never making assumptions about what someone is comfortable with. Consent can be withdrawn at any time, and sex is never owed to anyone. Engaging in non-consensual acts is against the law and may result in criminal or civil liability in Colorado.

13. RIGHTS YOU GRANT KAMPUS KONNECT
You own all of the content you provide to Kampus Konnect, but you also grant us the right to use Your Content as provided in this Agreement.
By creating an account, you grant to Kampus Konnect a worldwide, perpetual, transferable, sublicensable, royalty-free right and license to host, store, use, copy, display, reproduce, adapt, edit, publish, translate, modify, reformat, incorporate into other works, advertise, distribute, and otherwise make available to the general public Your Content, including any information you authorize us to access from Facebook or other third-party sources (if applicable), in whole or in part, and in any way and in any format or medium currently known or developed in the future. Kampus Konnect's license to Your Content shall be non-exclusive, except that Kampus Konnect's license shall be exclusive with respect to derivative works created through use of our Services. For example, Kampus Konnect would have an exclusive license to screenshots of our Services that include Your Content.
In addition, so that Kampus Konnect can prevent the use of Your Content outside of our Services, you authorize Kampus Konnect to act on your behalf with respect to infringing uses of Your Content taken from our Services by other users or third parties. This expressly includes the authority, but not the obligation, to send notices pursuant to 17 U.S.C. § 512(c)(3) (i.e., DMCA Takedown Notices) on your behalf if Your Content is taken and used by third parties outside of our Services. Kampus Konnect is not obligated to take any action with regard to use of Your Content by other users or third parties. Kampus Konnect's license to Your Content is subject to your rights under applicable law (for example, laws regarding personal data protection to the extent the content contains personal information as defined by those laws).

External Service Purchases, including subscriptions, may be processed through the External Service, in which case those purchases must be managed through your External Service Account. Subscriptions automatically renew until you cancel.
When making a purchase on the Service, you may have the option to pay through an External Service, such as with your Apple ID or Google Play account ("your External Service Account"), and your External Service Account will be charged for the purchase in accordance with the terms disclosed to you at the time of purchase and the general terms applicable to your External Service Account. Some External Services may charge you sales tax, depending on where you live, which may change from time to time.
If your External Service Purchase includes an automatically renewing subscription, your External Service Account will continue to be periodically charged for the subscription until you cancel. After your initial subscription commitment period, and again after any subsequent subscription period, the subscription will automatically continue for the price and time period you agreed to when subscribing. If you received a discounted promotional offer, your price may go up per the terms of that offer following the initial subscription period for any subsequent renewal period.
To cancel a subscription:
If you do not want your subscription to renew automatically, or if you want to change or terminate your subscription, you must log in to your External Service Account and follow instructions to manage or cancel your subscription, even if you have otherwise deleted your account with us or if you have deleted the App from your device.
If you cancel a subscription, you may continue to use the canceled service until the end of your then-current subscription term. The subscription will not be renewed when your then-current term expires.
If you initiate a chargeback or otherwise reverse a payment made with your External Service Account, Kampus Konnect may terminate your account immediately in its sole discretion, on the basis that you have determined that you do not want a Kampus Konnect subscription. In the event that your chargeback or other payment reversal is overturned, please contact Customer Care. Kampus Konnect will retain all funds charged to your External Service Account until you cancel your subscription through your External Service Account.
Certain users may be entitled to request a refund. See Section 10d below for more information.
14b. INTERNAL PURCHASES AND SUBSCRIPTIONS
Internal Purchases, including subscriptions, are processed using the Payment Method you provide on the Website or App. Subscriptions automatically renew until you cancel.
If you make an Internal Purchase, you agree to pay the prices displayed to you for the Services you've selected as well as any sales or similar taxes that may be imposed on your payments (and as may change from time to time), and you authorize Kampus Konnect to charge the payment method you provide (your "Payment Method"). Kampus Konnect may correct any billing errors or mistakes even if we have already requested or received payment. If you initiate a chargeback or otherwise reverse a payment made with your Payment Method, Kampus Konnect may terminate your account immediately in its sole discretion, on the basis that you have determined that you do not want a Kampus Konnect subscription. In the event that your chargeback or other payment reversal is overturned, please contact us at contact@Kampuskonnect2.com.
If your Internal Purchase includes an automatically renewing subscription, your Payment Method will continue to be periodically charged for the subscription until you cancel. After your initial subscription commitment period, and again after any subsequent subscription period, your subscription will automatically continue for the price and time period you agreed to when subscribing until you cancel.
To cancel a subscription:
Log in to the Website or App and go to the Account sectiona . If you cancel a subscription, you may continue to use the canceled service until the end of your then-current subscription term. The subscription will not be renewed when your then-current term expires.
You may edit your Payment Method information by using the Settings tool and following the link to let your upgrade expire. If a payment is not successfully processed, due to expiration, insufficient funds, or otherwise, you remain responsible for any uncollected amounts and authorize us to continue billing the Payment Method, as it may be updated. This may result in a change to your payment billing dates.
In addition, you authorize us to obtain updated or replacement expiration dates and card numbers for your credit or debit card as provided by your credit or debit card issuer. The terms of your payment will be based on your Payment Method and may be determined by agreements between you and the financial institution, credit card issuer, or other provider of your chosen Payment Method. Certain users may be entitled to request a refund. See Section 10d below for more information.
14c. SUBSCRIPTIONS AND AUTO-RENEWAL
Kampus Konnect may offer some services as automatically-renewing subscriptions, e.g., a one-week subscription, one-month subscription, or three-month subscription (“Premium Services”). IF YOU PURCHASE AN AUTOMATICALLY RENEWING SUBSCRIPTION, YOUR SUBSCRIPTION WILL RENEW AT THE END OF THE PERIOD, UNLESS YOU CANCEL, AT KAMPUS KONNECT’S THEN-CURRENT PRICE FOR SUCH SUBSCRIPTIONS.
To avoid charges for a new subscription period, you must cancel, as described below, before the end of the then-current subscription period. Deleting your account or deleting the application from your device does not cancel your subscription.
You will be given notice of changes in the pricing of the Premium Services to which you have subscribed and an opportunity to cancel. If Kampus Konnect changes these prices and you do not cancel your subscription, you agree that you will be charged at Kampus Konnect’s then-current pricing for a subscription.
14d. CANCELING SUBSCRIPTIONS
If you purchased a subscription directly from Kampus Konnect, you may cancel or change your Payment Method via the payment settings option under your profile. If you purchased a subscription through a Third-Party Store, such as the Apple App Store or the Google Play Store, you will need to access your account with that Third-Party Store and follow instructions to change or cancel your subscription.
If you cancel your subscription, you may use your subscription until the end of the period you last paid for, but:
14e. FREE TRIALS
If you sign up for a free trial and do not cancel, your trial may convert into a paid subscription and your Payment Method will be charged at the then-current price for such subscription. Once your free trial converts to a paid subscription, your paid subscription will continue to automatically renew at the end of each period, and your Payment Method will be charged, until you cancel. To avoid charges for a new subscription period, you must cancel before the end of the then-current subscription period or free trial period as described above. Deleting your account or deleting the application from your device does not cancel your free trial. If you have signed up for a free trial on Kampus Konnect through the Apple Store or Google Play Store previously, you will not be eligible for another free trial and you will then be automatically signed up to a subscription and charged as described in this paragraph.
14f. REFUNDS

14h. TAXES
The payments required under this Section do not include any Sales Tax that may be due in connection with the Premium Services provided under these Terms. If Kampus Konnect determines it has a legal obligation to collect a Sales Tax from you in connection with these Terms, Kampus Konnect will collect such Sales Tax in addition to the payments required under this Section. If any Premium Services, or payments for any Premium Services, under these Terms are subject to any Sales Tax in any jurisdiction and you have not remitted the applicable Sales Tax to Kampus Konnect, you will be responsible for the payment of such Sales Tax and any related penalties or interest to the relevant tax authority. As used herein, “Sales Tax” means any sales or use tax and any other tax measured by sales proceeds that is the functional equivalent of a sales tax where the applicable taxing jurisdiction does not otherwise impose a sales or use tax.
14i. VIRTUAL ITEMS
At times, you may be able to purchase a limited, personal, non-transferable, non-sublicensable, revocable license to access special limited-use features from Kampus Konnect, referred to here as “Virtual Items.” You can only purchase Virtual Items through Kampus Konnect or Kampus Konnect’s partners. Virtual Items represent a limited license right governed by this Agreement, and, except as otherwise prohibited by applicable law, no title or ownership in or to Virtual Items is being transferred or assigned to you. This Agreement, and your purchase of Virtual Items, do not constitute the sale of any rights in Virtual Items.
Any Virtual Item balance shown in your account does not constitute a real-world balance or reflect any stored value, but instead shows the extent of your license to access Virtual Items. Virtual Items do not incur fees for non-use. Your license in Virtual Items will terminate on the earlier of Kampus Konnect ceasing provision of services or your account closing or terminating. Kampus Konnect may also at times provide Virtual Items as bonuses to, or parts of, paid subscriptions for its services. Your ability to use Virtual Items you have access to in this manner may terminate at the end of each of your subscription periods and your access to Virtual Items may not “roll over” or accumulate through additional subscription periods. Your access to Virtual Items gained through subscriptions may also end if you cancel your subscription.
Kampus Konnect, in its sole discretion, reserves the right to charge fees for the right to access or use Virtual Items and/or may distribute Virtual Items with or without charge. Kampus Konnect may manage, regulate, control, modify, or eliminate Virtual Items at any time, including taking actions that may impact the perceived value or purchase price, if applicable, of any Virtual Items and Kampus Konnect shall have no liability to you for doing so. You shall not sell, redeem, or otherwise transfer Virtual Items to any person or entity. Virtual Items may only be redeemed through our Services.
ALL PURCHASES AND REDEMPTIONS OF VIRTUAL ITEMS MADE THROUGH OUR SERVICES ARE FINAL AND NON-REFUNDABLE. YOU ACKNOWLEDGE THAT KAMPUS KONNECT IS NOT REQUIRED TO PROVIDE A REFUND FOR ANY REASON, AND THAT YOU WILL NOT RECEIVE MONEY OR OTHER COMPENSATION FOR UNUSED VIRTUAL ITEMS WHEN AN ACCOUNT IS CLOSED, WHETHER SUCH CLOSURE WAS VOLUNTARY OR INVOLUNTARY.

23. THIRD-PARTY APP STORE
The following additional terms and conditions apply to you if you download the App from a Third-Party Store. To the extent that the other terms and conditions of these Terms are less restrictive than, or otherwise conflict with, the terms and conditions of this Section, the more restrictive or conflicting terms and conditions in this Section will apply, but solely with respect to the App and the Third-Party Store. You acknowledge and agree that:
In the event of a conflict between a Third-Party Store’s or mobile carrier’s applicable terms and conditions and these Terms, the terms and conditions of the Third-Party Store or mobile carrier shall govern and control. We are not responsible and have no liability whatsoever for third-party goods or services you obtain through a Third-Party Store or mobile carrier. We encourage you to make whatever investigation you feel necessary or appropriate before proceeding with any online transaction with any of these third parties.
24. DISPUTE RESOLUTION SECTION
In the unlikely event that we have a legal dispute, here is how the Parties agree to proceed, except where prohibited by applicable law.
Any Subsection in this Dispute Resolution Section that is prohibited by law shall not apply to the users residing in that jurisdiction, including Subsections 24a, 24b, 24c, 24d, and 24e.
24a. INFORMAL DISPUTE RESOLUTION PROCESS
If you are dissatisfied with our Services for any reason, please contact Kampus Konnect Customer Service first so we can try to resolve your concerns without the need of outside assistance. If you choose to pursue a dispute, claim, or controversy against Kampus Konnect, these terms will apply. For purposes of this Dispute Resolution Process and Arbitration Procedures set forth in Section 20, “Kampus Konnect” shall include our affiliates, employees, licensors, and service providers.
Kampus Konnect values its relationship with you and appreciates the mutual benefit realized from informally resolving Disputes. “Dispute” is any dispute, claim, or controversy between you and Kampus Konnect that arises from or relates in any way to this Agreement (including any alleged breach of this Agreement), the Service, or our relationship with you. “Dispute” as used in this Agreement shall have the broadest possible meaning and include claims that arose before the existence of this or any prior Agreement and claims that arise during the term of this Agreement or after the termination of this Agreement (unless this Agreement is superseded by a subsequent Agreement entered into by you and Kampus Konnect).
If you have a Dispute with Kampus Konnect (“Your Dispute”), before formally pursuing Your Dispute in arbitration or small claims court, you agree to first send a detailed notice (“Notice”) to Kampus Konnect, Attn: Kampus Konnect, LLC’s Copyright Agent, 1400 Veterans Memorial Hwy, Suite 134 - #562, Mableton, GA 30126, USA. However, if Your Dispute includes individual claims of sexual assault or sexual harassment occurring in connection with your use of the Services, then you are not required to send a Notice before pursuing your claims in accordance with Section 22. If Kampus Konnect has a Dispute with you (“Kampus Konnect’s Dispute"), Kampus Konnect agrees to first send a Notice to you at your most recent email address on file with us, or if no email address is on file, other contact information associated with your account.
Your Notice must contain all of the following information:
You must personally sign this Notice for it to be effective. Kampus Konnect’s Dispute Notice must likewise set forth a detailed description of Kampus Konnect’s Dispute, which shall include the nature and factual basis of its claim(s) and the relief it is seeking, with a corresponding calculation of our damages (if any).
You and Kampus Konnect agree to then negotiate in good faith in an effort to resolve the Dispute. As part of these good faith negotiations, Kampus Konnect may request a telephone conference with you to discuss Your Dispute, and you agree to personally participate, with your attorney if you’re represented by counsel. Likewise, you may request a telephone conference to discuss Kampus Konnect’s Dispute with you, and Kampus Konnect agrees to have one representative participate. (For the avoidance of doubt, Kampus Konnect’s termination of your account, as set forth in Section 4 above, is not Kampus Konnect’s Dispute with you.)
This informal process should lead to a resolution of the Dispute. However, if the Dispute is not resolved within 60 days after receipt of a fully completed Notice and the Parties have not otherwise mutually agreed to an extension of this informal dispute resolution time period, you or Kampus Konnect may initiate an arbitration (subject to a Party’s right to elect small claims court as provided below).
Completion of this informal dispute resolution is a condition precedent to filing any demand for arbitration or small claims court action (except for individual claims of sexual assault or sexual harassment occurring in connection with your use of the Services). Failure to do so is a breach of this Agreement. The statute of limitations and any filing fee deadlines will be tolled while you and Kampus Konnect engage in this informal dispute resolution process. Unless prohibited by applicable law, the arbitration provider, National Arbitration and Mediation (“NAM”), shall not accept or administer any demand for arbitration and shall administratively close any arbitration unless the Party bringing such demand for arbitration can certify in writing that the terms and conditions of this informal dispute resolution process were fully satisfied. A court of competent jurisdiction shall have authority to enforce this provision and to enjoin any arbitration proceeding or small claims court action accordingly.
All offers, promises, conduct, and statements made in the course of the informal dispute resolution process by any party, its agents, employees, and attorneys are confidential and not admissible for any purpose in any subsequent proceeding (except to the extent required to certify in writing that the Party met the requirements of this informal dispute resolution process before commencing a NAM arbitration), provided that evidence that is otherwise admissible or discoverable shall not be rendered inadmissible or non-discoverable.
24b. INDIVIDUAL RELIEF: CLASS ACTION AND JURY TRIAL WAIVER
TO THE FULLEST EXTENT ALLOWABLE BY LAW, YOU AND KAMPUS KONNECT EACH WAIVE THE RIGHT TO A JURY TRIAL AND THE RIGHT TO LITIGATE DISPUTES IN COURT IN FAVOR OF INDIVIDUAL ARBITRATION (EXCEPT FOR SMALL CLAIMS COURT OR FOR INDIVIDUAL CLAIMS OF SEXUAL ASSAULT OR SEXUAL HARASSMENT OCCURRING IN CONNECTION WITH YOUR USE OF THE SERVICES, AS PROVIDED HEREIN). YOU AND KAMPUS KONNECT EACH WAIVE THE RIGHT TO FILE OR PARTICIPATE IN A CLASS ACTION AGAINST THE OTHER OR OTHERWISE TO SEEK RELIEF ON A CLASS BASIS, INCLUDING ANY CURRENTLY PENDING ACTIONS AGAINST KAMPUS KONNECT. TO THE FULLEST EXTENT ALLOWABLE BY LAW, THERE SHALL BE NO RIGHT OR AUTHORITY FOR ANY CLAIMS TO BE ARBITRATED OR LITIGATED ON A CLASS, COLLECTIVE, REPRESENTATIVE, CONSOLIDATED, OR PRIVATE ATTORNEY GENERAL BASIS.
THE ARBITRATOR CAN AWARD THE SAME RELIEF AVAILABLE IN COURT PROVIDED THAT THE ARBITRATOR MAY ONLY AWARD FINAL RELIEF (INCLUDING INJUNCTIVE OR DECLARATORY RELIEF) IN FAVOR OF THE INDIVIDUAL PARTY SEEKING RELIEF AND ONLY TO THE EXTENT NECESSARY TO PROVIDE FINAL RELIEF WARRANTED BY THAT INDIVIDUAL PARTY’S CLAIM. THE ARBITRATOR MAY NOT AWARD FINAL RELIEF FOR, AGAINST, OR ON BEHALF OF ANYONE WHO IS NOT A PARTY TO THE ARBITRATION ON A CLASS, COLLECTIVE, REPRESENTATIVE, OR PRIVATE ATTORNEY GENERAL BASIS.
IF A COURT DETERMINES THAT ANY OF THESE PROHIBITIONS IN THIS PARAGRAPH ARE UNENFORCEABLE AS TO A PARTICULAR CLAIM OR REQUEST FOR RELIEF (SUCH AS A REQUEST FOR PUBLIC INJUNCTIVE RELIEF), AND ALL APPEALS OF THAT DECISION ARE AFFIRMED AND SUCH DECISION BECOMES FINAL, THEN YOU AND KAMPUS KONNECT AGREE THAT THAT PARTICULAR CLAIM OR REQUEST FOR RELIEF SHALL PROCEED IN COURT BUT SHALL BE STAYED PENDING INDIVIDUAL ARBITRATION OF THE REMAINING CLAIMS FOR RELIEF THAT YOU HAVE BROUGHT. IF THIS SPECIFIC PARAGRAPH IS FOUND TO BE UNENFORCEABLE, THEN THE ENTIRETY OF THIS ARBITRATION PROVISION (EXCEPT FOR THE JURY TRIAL WAIVER AND THE INFORMAL DISPUTE RESOLUTION PROCESS) SHALL BE NULL AND VOID. THIS PARAGRAPH IS AN ESSENTIAL PART OF THIS ARBITRATION AGREEMENT.
24c. DISPUTE RESOLUTION THROUGH ARBITRATION OR SMALL CLAIMS COURT
Any Dispute (that is not resolved informally by Kampus Konnect Customer Service or as provided under subsection 20 above) shall be exclusively resolved through BINDING INDIVIDUAL ARBITRATION except as specifically provided otherwise in this Dispute Resolution Section. Notwithstanding the foregoing, either you or Kampus Konnect may elect to have an individual claim heard in small claims court. If the request to proceed in small claims court is made after an arbitration has been initiated but before an arbitrator has been appointed, such arbitration shall be administratively closed by the arbitration provider (e.g., NAM). Any controversy over the small claims court’s jurisdiction shall be exclusively determined by such small claims court. No determinations made by a small claims court shall have preclusive effect in any proceeding involving Kampus Konnect and anyone other than you.
In the event such small claims court specifically determines that it is without jurisdiction to hear the Dispute, you and Kampus Konnect shall arbitrate the Dispute under the terms of this Agreement. All other issues (except as otherwise provided herein) are exclusively for the Arbitrator to decide, including but not limited to scope and enforceability of this Dispute Resolution Section and including questions of arbitrability, any request to proceed in small claims court that is made after an arbitrator has been appointed, and any dispute as to whether either Party is in breach or default of the Dispute Resolution Section or has explicitly or implicitly waived the right to arbitrate. If you or Kampus Konnect challenges the small claims court election in your Dispute, and a court of competent jurisdiction determines that the small claims court election is unenforceable, then such election shall be severed from this Agreement as to your Dispute. However, such court determination shall not be considered or deemed binding or have preclusive effect with respect to any proceeding involving Kampus Konnect and anyone other than you.
Any court proceeding to enforce this Dispute Resolution Section 22, including any proceeding to confirm, modify, or vacate an arbitration award, must be commenced in accordance with Section 24. In the event Dispute Resolution Section 22 is for any reason held to be unenforceable, any litigation against Kampus Konnect (except for small claims court actions) may be commenced only in the federal or state courts located in Cobb County, Georgia. You hereby irrevocably consent to those courts’ exercise of personal jurisdiction over you for such purposes and waive any claim that such courts constitute an inconvenient forum.
24d. INDIVIDUAL RELIEF: CLASS ACTION AND JURY TRIAL WAIVER
TO THE FULLEST EXTENT ALLOWABLE BY LAW, YOU AND KAMPUS KONNECT EACH WAIVE THE RIGHT TO A JURY TRIAL AND THE RIGHT TO LITIGATE DISPUTES IN COURT IN FAVOR OF INDIVIDUAL ARBITRATION (EXCEPT FOR SMALL CLAIMS COURT OR FOR INDIVIDUAL CLAIMS OF SEXUAL ASSAULT OR SEXUAL HARASSMENT OCCURRING IN CONNECTION WITH YOUR USE OF THE SERVICES, AS PROVIDED HEREIN). YOU AND KAMPUS KONNECT EACH WAIVE THE RIGHT TO FILE OR PARTICIPATE IN A CLASS ACTION AGAINST THE OTHER OR OTHERWISE TO SEEK RELIEF ON A CLASS BASIS, INCLUDING ANY CURRENTLY PENDING ACTIONS AGAINST KAMPUS KONNECT. TO THE FULLEST EXTENT ALLOWABLE BY LAW, THERE SHALL BE NO RIGHT OR AUTHORITY FOR ANY CLAIMS TO BE ARBITRATED OR LITIGATED ON A CLASS, COLLECTIVE, REPRESENTATIVE, CONSOLIDATED, OR PRIVATE ATTORNEY GENERAL BASIS.
THE ARBITRATOR CAN AWARD THE SAME RELIEF AVAILABLE IN COURT PROVIDED THAT THE ARBITRATOR MAY ONLY AWARD FINAL RELIEF (INCLUDING INJUNCTIVE OR DECLARATORY RELIEF) IN FAVOR OF THE INDIVIDUAL PARTY SEEKING RELIEF AND ONLY TO THE EXTENT NECESSARY TO PROVIDE FINAL RELIEF WARRANTED BY THAT INDIVIDUAL PARTY’S CLAIM. THE ARBITRATOR MAY NOT AWARD FINAL RELIEF FOR, AGAINST, OR ON BEHALF OF ANYONE WHO IS NOT A PARTY TO THE ARBITRATION ON A CLASS, COLLECTIVE, REPRESENTATIVE, OR PRIVATE ATTORNEY GENERAL BASIS.
IF A COURT DETERMINES THAT ANY OF THESE PROHIBITIONS IN THIS PARAGRAPH ARE UNENFORCEABLE AS TO A PARTICULAR CLAIM OR REQUEST FOR RELIEF (SUCH AS A REQUEST FOR PUBLIC INJUNCTIVE RELIEF), AND ALL APPEALS OF THAT DECISION ARE AFFIRMED AND SUCH DECISION BECOMES FINAL, THEN YOU AND KAMPUS KONNECT AGREE THAT THAT PARTICULAR CLAIM OR REQUEST FOR RELIEF SHALL PROCEED IN COURT BUT SHALL BE STAYED PENDING INDIVIDUAL ARBITRATION OF THE REMAINING CLAIMS FOR RELIEF THAT YOU HAVE BROUGHT. IF THIS SPECIFIC PARAGRAPH IS FOUND TO BE UNENFORCEABLE, THEN THE ENTIRETY OF THIS ARBITRATION PROVISION (EXCEPT FOR THE JURY TRIAL WAIVER AND THE INFORMAL DISPUTE RESOLUTION PROCESS) SHALL BE NULL AND VOID. THIS PARAGRAPH IS AN ESSENTIAL PART OF THIS ARBITRATION AGREEMENT.
24f. DISPUTE RESOLUTION THROUGH ARBITRATION OR SMALL CLAIMS COURT
Any Dispute (that is not resolved informally by Kampus Konnect Customer Service or as provided under subsection 20 above) shall be exclusively resolved through BINDING INDIVIDUAL ARBITRATION except as specifically provided otherwise in this Dispute Resolution Section. Notwithstanding the foregoing, either you or Kampus Konnect may elect to have an individual claim heard in small claims court. If the request to proceed in small claims court is made after an arbitration has been initiated but before an arbitrator has been appointed, such arbitration shall be administratively closed by the arbitration provider (e.g., NAM). Any controversy over the small claims court’s jurisdiction shall be exclusively determined by such small claims court. No determinations made by a small claims court shall have preclusive effect in any proceeding involving Kampus Konnect and anyone other than you.
In the event such small claims court specifically determines that it is without jurisdiction to hear the Dispute, you and Kampus Konnect shall arbitrate the Dispute under the terms of this Agreement. All other issues (except as otherwise provided herein) are exclusively for the Arbitrator to decide, including but not limited to scope and enforceability of this Dispute Resolution Section and including questions of arbitrability, any request to proceed in small claims court that is made after an arbitrator has been appointed, and any dispute as to whether either Party is in breach or default of the Dispute Resolution Section or has explicitly or implicitly waived the right to arbitrate. If you or Kampus Konnect challenges the small claims court election in your Dispute, and a court of competent jurisdiction determines that the small claims court election is unenforceable, then such election shall be severed from this Agreement as to your Dispute. However, such court determination shall not be considered or deemed binding or have preclusive effect with respect to any proceeding involving Kampus Konnect and anyone other than you.
Any court proceeding to enforce this Dispute Resolution Section 22, including any proceeding to confirm, modify, or vacate an arbitration award, must be commenced in accordance with Section 24. In the event Dispute Resolution Section 22 is for any reason held to be unenforceable, any litigation against Kampus Konnect (except for small claims court actions) may be commenced only in the federal or state courts located in Cobb County, Georgia. You hereby irrevocably consent to those courts’ exercise of personal jurisdiction over you for such purposes and waive any claim that such courts constitute an inconvenient forum.
24g. INDIVIDUAL ARBITRATION AND MASS ARBITRATION PROTOCOLS
This subsection applies to Disputes that are submitted to National Arbitration and Mediation (“NAM”) after fully completing the informal dispute resolution process described in Section 20 and when no small claims court election is made by you or Kampus Konnect. Any arbitration between you and Kampus Konnect shall be administered by NAM in accordance with NAM’s Comprehensive Dispute Resolution Rules and Procedures (“NAM Rules”) in effect at the time any demand for arbitration is filed, as modified by this Agreement.
For a copy of the NAM Rules, visit NAM Rules or, contact NAM at: NAM’s National Processing Center, 990 Stewart Avenue, 1st Floor, Garden City, NY 11530 or via email at commercial@namadr.com.
If NAM is unable or unwilling to perform its duties under this Agreement, the Parties shall mutually agree on an alternative administrator that will replace NAM and assume its role consistent with this Agreement. If the Parties are unable to agree, they will petition a court of competent jurisdiction to appoint an arbitration provider.
Arbitration Procedures:
Unless both Parties agree otherwise, no other forms of discovery (including depositions) may be utilized. Any such discovery requests must be served on the other Party within 21 days after the Claim Arbitrator’s appointment. The responding Party shall provide the requesting Party with all responsive, non-privileged documents, responses signed by the Party themselves to the requested interrogatories, and/or any objections to the requests within 30 days after receipt of the requests. In the event of an objection to any discovery request, 30 days after the Claim Arbitrator resolves the dispute.
If either Party requests that the Claim Arbitrator consider a dispositive motion on the pleadings, discovery deadlines shall be extended until 30 days following the Claim Arbitrator’s final decision on such dispositive motion. If the Parties cannot agree on a dispute about discovery, the matter shall be submitted promptly to the Claim Arbitrator for resolution. The burden of establishing good cause for any additional discovery is on the moving Party.
Bellwether Proceedings. Bellwether proceedings are encouraged by courts and arbitration administrators when there are multiple disputes involving similar claims against the same or related parties. For the first set of bellwether proceedings, counsel for the Mass Filings claimants (including you) and counsel for Kampus Konnect shall each select 15 Demands for Arbitration (30 total) to proceed, and no more than those 30 arbitrations shall be filed, processed, adjudicated, or pending at such time, with each of the 30 individual arbitrations presided over by a different Claim Arbitrator. During this time, no other Demands for Arbitration that are part of the Mass Filings may be filed, processed, adjudicated, or pending. If the Parties are unable to resolve the remaining Demands for Arbitration after the first set of bellwether proceedings are arbitrated or otherwise resolved, then the Parties will continue to engage in the bellwether proceedings for an additional four (4) rounds, increasing the amount of Demands for Arbitration selected by counsel for each Party by five (5) with each round, so that during the second round, counsel for the Claimants and counsel for Kampus Konnect shall each select an additional 20 Demands for Arbitration (40 total), in the third round, 25 each (50 total), in the fourth round, 30 each (60 total), and in the fifth round 35 each (70 total). Within each round, each of the individual arbitrations is to be presided over by a different Claim Arbitrator, and during these additional rounds of the bellwether proceedings, no other Demands for Arbitration that are part of the Mass Filings may be filed, processed, or adjudicated once selected by the Procedural Arbitrator. Following the first round of bellwether proceedings, but before the second round of bellwether proceedings, counsel for the Parties shall participate in a global mediation, before a retired federal or state-court judge (unless the Parties agree otherwise), with Kampus Konnect to pay the mediator’s fees.
Following the second, third, fourth, and fifth rounds of bellwether proceedings, counsel for both parties should discuss additional mediation and seek out opportunities to resolve the remaining Demands for Arbitration, but will only proceed with mediation upon consent of counsel for all Parties.
If the Parties are unable to resolve the remaining Demands for Arbitration after the fifth set of bellwether proceedings are arbitrated or otherwise resolved, and the Parties decide to not continue with additional rounds of bellwether proceedings, then counsel for the Claimants and counsel for Kampus Konnect shall discuss with NAM a fair process for individually adjudicating the remaining Demands for Arbitration. Under this process, the Procedural Arbitrator will make the final decision on the number of Demands for Arbitration that can proceed individually at any time, as well as a method for selecting which Demands for Arbitration will proceed, taking into account the number of individual arbitrations that counsel for Claimants and counsel for Kampus Konnect are able to reasonably manage at the same time, as well as the number of individual arbitrations that NAM is able to administer. A Demand for Arbitration that was not included in the bellwethering process will only be deemed filed, processed, or adjudicated once selected by the Procedural Arbitrator. At any time after the first set of Demands for Arbitration are resolved (30 Demands for Arbitration total), the Parties may agree to forgo the bellwether proceedings for any additional Demands for Arbitration deemed to be part of the Mass Filings. Fees associated with a Demand for Arbitration included in the Mass Filings, including fees owed by Kampus Konnect and the Claimants (including you), shall only be due after the Demand for Arbitration is chosen to proceed as part of a set of bellwether proceedings, or after being selected by the Procedural Arbitrator to proceed upon completion of the bellwether proceedings, and therefore properly designated for filing, processing, and adjudication. The Parties are encouraged to meet and confer throughout this process regarding ways to streamline the proceedings, including discussion of potential ways to increase the number of Demands for Arbitration to be adjudicated in sets of staged bellwether proceedings. Either Party may negotiate with NAM as to reducing and deferring fees and streamlining procedures. If you are a Mass Filing claimant, any applicable statute of limitations (or other applicable limitations period) shall be tolled beginning when you initiate the informal dispute resolution process set forth in subsection 15a of the Agreement, and if the first Mass Filings’ Demands for Arbitration that are chosen for the initial set of bellwether proceedings have been filed, your claims will remain tolled until your Demand for Arbitration is either selected by counsel for the Parties in the bellwether proceedings or selected by the Procedural Arbitrator following completion of the bellwether proceedings. A court of competent jurisdiction located in a venue allowed under Section 17 of the Agreement shall have the power to enforce this subsection.
24h. FUTURE CHANGES AND RETROACTIVE APPLICATION

You may opt out by sending us written notice, within 30 days of the time you consent to this Agreement, to the following email address: contact@Kampuskonnect2.com.

25. MASS FILINGS
If, at any time, 30 or more similar demands for arbitration are asserted against Kampus Konnect or related parties by the same or coordinated counsel or entities, or if Kampus Konnect asserts 30 or more similar demands for arbitration or counterclaims against similarly-situated parties within a 60-day period, the additional protocols below shall apply:
If the arbitration provider refuses to administer Batch Arbitration under this structure, its mass arbitration fee schedule shall apply.
If the arbitration provider refuses to administer Batch Arbitration under this structure, its mass arbitration fee schedule shall apply.
26. OFFER OF JUDGMENT
At least 14 days before the date set for the arbitration hearing, any party may serve a written offer to settle on specified terms. If the offer is not accepted and the other party fails to obtain a more favorable award, that party shall not recover any post-offer costs and shall pay the offering party’s costs from the time of the offer.
27. OPT-OUT OPTION
Updates to Kampus Konnect’s Terms do not provide a new opportunity to opt out of arbitration if you previously agreed to a prior version containing an arbitration provision and did not validly opt-out.
Opting out does not affect any other part of the Terms or any agreements between you and Kampus Konnect. It also does not affect any other arbitration agreements you may have now or in the future with us.
28. SEVERABILITY
If any part of this Arbitration Agreement is found to be invalid or unenforceable, that part shall be severed, and the remainder of the Arbitration Agreement shall remain in effect. If a court finds that any provision prevents the exercise of a non-waivable right to public injunctive relief, then that specific dispute may be litigated in court, but all other disputes shall remain subject to arbitration.

This Arbitration Agreement will continue to apply even after your relationship with Kampus Konnect has ended.
