5. LICENSE RESTRICTIONS. You may not reproduce, distribute, publicly display, or publicly perform the App or any part of the Service. Except if, and solely to the extent that, such a restriction is impermissible under applicable law or applicable third party license, you may not (a) decompile, reverse engineer, or otherwise access or attempt to access the source code for the App, or make or attempt to make any modification to the App; or (b) interfere with or circumvent any feature of the App, including without limitation any security, or access control mechanism. You may not use the App or the Service (i) for any purpose other than a purpose for which the App and the Service are expressly designed; or (ii) in a manner that violates this EULA, any third-party rights, or applicable laws, rules, or regulations. You may not use the App or the Service on more than the number of devices that are allowed under your subscription plan.

6. FEES; PAYMENT. Access to the Service requires you to pay the fees associated with your subscription plan for the Service, plus any applicable sales, use, excise, or other taxes. Before you subscribe, you will have an opportunity to review the applicable fees and taxes that you will be charged under your subscription plan. All fees are in U.S. Dollars and, except as described in Section 8, are non-refundable. We may change the fees for the Service or any subscription plan or feature of the Service, including by adding additional fees or charges with respect to any of the foregoing, on a going-forward basis at any time. If any such change will increase the fees charged to you during your existing or renewal subscription term, we will notify you through a message sent to the email address you have provided to us, if any, or through a pop-up window or other notification when you access or use the App or the Service. We will charge the payment method you specify at the time of purchase (the “Payment Method“). You authorize us to charge all sums described herein to such payment method. Any amount not paid when due will be subject to finance charges equal to 1.5% of the unpaid balance per month or the highest rate permitted by applicable usury law, whichever is less, determined and compounded daily from the date due until the date paid. You will reimburse us for any costs or expenses (including, but not limited to, reasonable attorneys’ fees) incurred by us to collect any amount that is not paid when due.
7. AUTOMATIC RENEWAL; FREE TRIAL. At the end of your subscription period (but not including any free trial periods), your subscription will automatically renew unless and until you cancel your subscription or we terminate it in accordance with Section 8 of this EULA. You may choose to renew your subscription in accordance with any subscription plan offered by us at the time of your renewal. If you do not choose any particular subscription plan for your renewal, your subscription will renew at the subscription plan applicable to the immediately-preceding subscription period, at the then-current fees for such subscription plan. If you cancel your subscription, or choose to renew at a different subscription plan, you may permanently lose access to certain features or choices available under your previous subscription plan. By way of example, and not limitation, if your current subscription plan allows you to choose a unique private domain name, and you renew at a subscription plan that doesn’t offer unique private domains, you may permanently lose the domain name you have previously chosen. Your Payment Method will be charged automatically at the end of your subscription period all applicable fees for the next subscription period. You must cancel your subscription before it renews in order to avoid billing of the next periodic subscription fees to your Payment Method. We will bill the periodic subscription fee to the Payment Method you provide to us during registration (or to a different Payment Method if you change your account information). If you are using the Service under a free trial offered by us and wish to continue using the Service at the end of the free trial, you may be required to subscribe for the Service and enter a Payment Method which will be charged in accordance with Section 6 above.

16. INDEMNITY.

17. DISPUTE RESOLUTION. Disputes arising between you and Company hereunder shall be resolved in accordance with the following:
a. Generally. In the interest of resolving disputes between you and Company in the most expedient and cost effective manner, you and Company agree that any and all disputes arising in connection with this EULA shall be resolved by binding arbitration. Arbitration is more informal than a lawsuit in court. Arbitration uses a neutral arbitrator instead of a judge or jury, may allow for more limited discovery than in court, and can be subject to very limited review by courts. Arbitrators can award the same damages and relief that a court can award. Our agreement to arbitrate disputes includes, but is not limited to all claims arising out of or relating to any aspect of this EULA, whether based in contract, tort, statute, fraud, misrepresentation or any other legal theory, and regardless of whether the claims arise during or after the termination of this EULA. You understand and agree that, by entering into this EULA, you and Company are each waiving the right to a trial by jury or to participate in a class action.
b. Opt-Out. If you do not wish to resolve disputes by binding arbitration, you may opt out of the provisions of this Section 17 (Dispute Resolution and Arbitration) within 30 days after the date that you agree to this EULA by sending a letter to VirnetX, Inc., Attention: Legal Department – Arbitration Opt-Out, 308 Dorla Court, Zephyr Cove, NV 89448 that specifies: your full legal name, the email address associated with your account on the Service, and a statement that you wish to opt out of arbitration (“Opt-Out Notice”). Once Company receives your Opt-Out Notice, this Section 17 (Dispute Resolution and Arbitration) will be void and any action arising out of these Terms will be resolved as set forth in Section 19 (Governing Law). The remaining provisions of this EULA will not be affected by your Opt-Out Notice.
c. Exceptions. Notwithstanding the contents of Section 15.a above, you and Company both agree that nothing herein shall be deemed to waive, preclude, or otherwise limit either of our right to (i) bring an individual action in small claims court, (ii) pursue enforcement actions through applicable federal, state, or local agencies where such actions are available, (iii) seek injunctive relief in a court of law, or (iv) to file suit in a court of law to address intellectual property infringement claims.
d. Arbitrator. Any arbitration between you and Company will be governed by the Consumer Arbitration Rules (collectively, “AAA Rules”) of the American Arbitration Association (“AAA”), as modified by this EULA, and will be administered by the AAA. The AAA Rules and filing forms are available online at www.adr.org, by calling the AAA at 1-800-778-7879, or by contacting Company.
e. Notice; Process. A party who intends to seek arbitration must first send a written notice of the dispute to the other, by certified mail or Federal Express (signature required), or in the event that we do not have a physical address on file for you, by electronic mail (“Notice”). Company’s address for Notice is: VirnetX, Inc., 308 Dorla Court, Zephyr Cove, NV 89448. The Notice must (a) identify the name or account number of the party making the claim; (b) describe the nature and basis of the claim or dispute; and (b) set forth the specific relief sought (“Demand”). The parties agree to use good faith efforts to resolve the claim directly, but if the parties do not reach an agreement to do so within 30 days after the Notice is received, you or Company may commence an arbitration proceeding. All arbitration proceedings between the parties will be confidential unless otherwise agreed by the parties in writing. During the arbitration, the amount of any settlement offer made by you or Company shall not be disclosed to the arbitrator until after the arbitrator makes a final decision and award, if any. If the arbitrator awards you an amount higher than the last written settlement amount offered by Company in settlement of the dispute prior to the award, Company will pay to you the higher of: (i) the amount awarded by the arbitrator; or (ii) $10,000.
f. Fees. In the event that you commence arbitration in accordance with this EULA, Company will reimburse you for your payment of the filing fee, unless your claim is for greater than $10,000, in which case the payment of any fees shall be decided by the AAA Rules. Any arbitration hearings will take place in the county and state of your residence unless we agree otherwise or, if the claim is for $10,000 or less (and does not seek injunctive relief), you may choose whether the arbitration will be conducted solely on the basis of documents submitted to the arbitrator, through a non-appearance based telephonic hearing, or by an in-person hearing as established by the AAA Rules in the county (or parish) of your billing address. If the arbitrator finds that either the substance of your claim or the relief sought in the Demand is frivolous or brought for an improper purpose (as measured by the standards set forth in Federal Rule of Civil Procedure 11(b)), then the payment of all fees will be governed by the AAA Rules. In such case, you agree to reimburse Company for all monies previously disbursed by it that are otherwise your obligation to pay under the AAA Rules. Regardless of the manner in which the arbitration is conducted, the arbitrator shall issue a reasoned written decision sufficient to explain the essential findings and conclusions on which the decision and award, if any, are based. The arbitrator may make rulings and resolve disputes as to the payment and reimbursement of fees or expenses at any time during the proceeding and upon request from either party made within 14 days of the arbitrator’s ruling on the merits.
g. Arbitration Relief. Except as provided in Section 17.h (No Class Actions), the arbitrator can award any relief that would be available if the claims had been brought in a court of competent jurisdiction. If the arbitrator awards you an amount higher than the last written settlement amount offered by Company before an arbitrator was selected, Company will pay to you the higher of: (a) the amount awarded by the arbitrator and (b) US$10,000. The arbitrator’s award shall be final and binding on all parties , except (1) for judicial review expressly permitted by law or (2) if the arbitrator’s award includes an award of injunctive relief against a party, in which case that party shall have the right to seek judicial review of the injunctive relief in a court of competent jurisdiction that shall not be bound by the arbitrator’s application or conclusions of law. Judgment on the award may be entered in any court having jurisdiction.
h. No Class Actions. YOU AND COMPANY AGREE THAT EACH MAY BRING CLAIMS AGAINST THE OTHER ONLY IN YOUR OR ITS INDIVIDUAL CAPACITY, AND NOT AS A PLAINTIFF OR CLASS MEMBER IN ANY PURPORTED CLASS OR REPRESENTATIVE PROCEEDING. Further, unless both you and Company agree otherwise, the arbitrator may not consolidate more than one person’s claims, and may not otherwise preside over any form of a representative or class proceeding.
i. Modifications. In the event that Company makes any future change to this arbitration provision (other than a change to the Company’s address for Notice), you may reject any such change by sending us written notice within 30 days of the change to Company’s address for Notice, in which case your account with Company shall be immediately terminated and this arbitration provision, as in effect immediately prior to the amendments you reject shall survive.
j. Enforceability. If subsection (h) of this Section 17, or the entirety of this Section 17 is found to be unenforceable, , or if Company receives an Opt-Out Notice from you then the entirety of this Section 17 shall be null and void and, in such case, the parties agree that the exclusive jurisdiction and venue described in Section 17, below, shall govern any action arising out of or related to this EULA.
18. THIRD PARTY SOFTWARE. The App may be distributed alongside certain third party software (“Third Party Software“) provided under separate license terms (the “Third Party Terms“), as set forth in more detail via the App’s Settings->About menu. Your use of such Third Party Software in conjunction with the App in a manner consistent with the terms of this EULA is permitted; however, you may have broader rights under the applicable Third Party Terms and nothing in this EULA is intended to impose further restrictions on your use of the Third Party Software.
19. GOVERNING LAW; VENUE. This EULA, whether interpreted in a court of law or in arbitration, shall be governed by the laws of the State of Texas as they apply to agreements entered into and to be performed entirely within Texas by Texas residents, and without regard to conflict of law principles. To the extent that any lawsuit or court proceeding is permitted hereunder, you and Company agree to submit to the personal and exclusive jurisdiction of the federal courts located within the Eastern District of Texas for the purpose of litigating all such claims or disputes.
20. INTERNATIONAL VISITORS. The Service is hosted in the United States and intended for visitors located within the United States. If you choose to use the Service from the European Union or other regions of the world with laws governing data collection and use that may differ from U.S. law, then please note that you are transferring your personal information outside of those regions to the United States for storage and processing.

This export control clause shall survive termination or cancellation of this EULA.
22. MISCELLANEOUS. This EULA is the entire agreement between you and Company, and supersedes any and all prior agreements, negotiations, or other communications between you and Company, whether oral or written, with respect to the subject matter hereof, and, except as expressly provided herein, cannot be modified except in writing signed by both parties.
