Limitation of Liability and Remedies
POWER HOMESCHOOL SHALL HAVE NO LIABILITY FOR ANY INDIRECT OR SPECULATIVE DAMAGES (INCLUDING, WITHOUT LIMITING THE FOREGOING, CONSEQUENTIAL, INCIDENTAL, AND SPECIAL DAMAGES) ARISING FROM THE USE OF OR INABILITY TO USE THE COURSE(S) OR SOFTWARE, WHETHER ARISING OUT OF CONTRACT, NEGLIGENCE, TORT, OR UNDER ANY WARRANTY, IRRESPECTIVE OF WHETHER POWER HOMESCHOOL HAS ADVANCE NOTICE OF THE POSSIBILITY OF ANY SUCH DAMAGES, INCLUDING, BUT NOT LIMITED TO LOSS OF USE, INFRINGEMENT OF INTELLECTUAL PROPERTY, BUSINESS INTERRUPTIONS, AND LOSS OF PROFITS. POWER HOMESCHOOL SHALL HAVE NO LIABILITY FOR COURSE(S) OR SOFTWARE NOT BEING AVAILABLE FOR USE OR FOR LOST OR CORRUPTED DATA. NOTWITHSTANDING THE FOREGOING, POWER HOMESCHOOL’ TOTAL LIABILITY FOR ALL CLAIMS UNDER THIS AGREEMENT SHALL NOT EXCEED THE PRICE PAID FOR THE COURSE(S). THESE LIMITATIONS ON POTENTIAL LIABILITIES WERE AN ESSENTIAL ELEMENT IN SETTING THE PRICE. POWER HOMESCHOOL NEITHER ASSUMES NOR AUTHORIZES ANYONE TO ASSUME FOR IT ANY OTHER LIABILITIES.

In states where the exclusion or limitation of incidental or consequential damages is not allowed, the limitations or exclusions will apply to the greatest extent permitted by law.

Waiver
The failure to enforce any provision of these Terms and Conditions of Enrollment shall not be construed as a waiver of any such provisions nor prevent Power Homeschool thereafter from enforcing the provision or any other provisions of these Terms and Conditions of Enrollment.

Severability
If any term, condition or provision in these Terms and Conditions of Enrollment is found by a court of competent jurisdiction to be invalid, unlawful or unenforceable to any extent, then it is the intent of the parties that such court apply a rule of reasonableness and modify the term, condition or provision in question so it will remain in effect to the greatest extent permitted by law. In the event a court finds such procedure to be inappropriate, then such invalid term, condition or provision will be severed from the remaining terms, conditions and provisions, which will continue to be valid and enforceable to the fullest extent permitted by law. Headings in this document are for reference purposes only and in no way define, limit, construe or describe the scope or extent of such section.

Time Limitation for Bringing Claims
YOU AGREE THAT REGARDLESS OF ANY STATUTE OR LAW TO THE CONTRARY, ANY CLAIM OR CAUSE OF ACTION ARISING OUT OF OR RELATED TO THE COURSE(S), OR ANY PART THEREOF, OR THESE TERMS AND CONDITIONS OF ENROLLMENT MUST BE FILED WITHIN ONE (1) YEAR AFTER SUCH CLAIM OR CAUSE OF ACTION AROSE OR BE FOREVER BARRED.

Governing Law
THESE TERMS AND CONDITIONS OF ENROLLMENT AND ANY SALE HEREUNDER WILL BE GOVERNED BY THE LAWS OF THE STATE OF MISSOURI, WITHOUT REGARD TO CONFLICTS OF LAWS RULES.

PARENT FURTHER CONSENTS TO THE EXERCISE OF PERSONAL JURISDICTION BY ANY SUCH COURT WITH RESPECT TO ANY SUCH PROCEEDING.

Arbitration
Any claim, dispute, or controversy (whether in contract, tort or otherwise, whether preexisting, present or future, and including statutory, common law, intentional tort and equitable claims) arising from or relating to the course(s) sold pursuant to these terms and conditions of enrollment, the interpretation or application of these terms and conditions or the breach, termination or validity thereof, the relationships which result from these terms and conditions (including, to the full extent permitted by applicable law, relationships with third parties who are not signatories hereto), or Power Homeschool’s advertising and marketing (collectively, a “Claim”) arising hereunder that cannot be settled amicably by the parties shall be settled by arbitration (the “Arbitration”) in accordance with the rules of the American Arbitration Association, then in force. The Arbitration shall be governed by the following rules: a) The Arbitration hearings shall be held in Kansas City, Missouri; b) The dispute shall be heard and determined by a single arbitrator (the “Arbitrator”) who shall be selected by agreement of both parties hereto; c) Each party will bear its own cost of any legal representation, discovery or research required to complete arbitration; d) The Arbitrator shall make his or her award in writing within two (2) months of the start of the Arbitration – or within such time-period as agreed to in writing by the parties hereto; e) The Arbitrator shall have the authority to award costs to whichever party he or she deems appropriate; and f) The decision of the Arbitrator shall be final, conclusive, and binding upon the parties hereto.

Once arbitration has been chosen by any party with respect to a Claim, neither Power Homeschool nor Parent will have the right to litigate that Claim in court or to have a jury trial on that Claim or to engage in pre-arbitration discovery, except as provided for in the applicable arbitration rules or by agreement of the parties. Further, Parent will not have the right to participate as a representative or member of any class of claimants pertaining to any Claim. Notwithstanding any choice of law provision included in these terms and conditions of enrollment, this arbitration agreement is subject to the Federal Arbitration Act (9 U.S.C. §§ 1-16). Any court having jurisdiction may enter judgment on the award rendered by the Arbitrator. The existence or results of any arbitration will be treated as confidential. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, all matters pertaining to the collection of amounts due to Power Homeschool arising out of sales hereunder may be litigated in court rather than through arbitration.
