Terms of Service

The agreement between GalaxyWorks and its users that governs the services we provide.

Welcome, and thank you for your interest in GalaxyWorks.

This is a binding contract. Please read it carefully before using the services offered by GalaxyWorks.

These Terms of Service (the "Terms") are an important contract between us and you:

  • If you are opening a GalaxyWorks account or including this Agreement by reference in a purchase order, this contract is between GalaxyWorks and your organization. You represent that you have the authority to bind your organization to this agreement.
  • If you are an individual GalaxyWorks user, this Agreement is between you and GalaxyWorks.

GalaxyWorks has several policies (the "Policies") that form part of these Terms:

  1. Acceptable Use Policy
  2. Billing Policy
  3. Privacy Policy
  4. Security Policy
  5. Support Policy
  6. Trademark Policy

The "Agreement" refers to these Terms and Policies together.

The general idea of this Agreement is that we grant you a license to use the Services, and in return you pay us and agree to abide by our terms and policies. Your failure to abide by your obligations under these policies constitutes grounds for suspension or termination of your account and revocation of your access to the Services.

In this Agreement:

  • "GalaxyWorks," "Galaxy Pro," "we," and "us" means GalaxyWorks LLC.
  • The "Services" means the GalaxyWorks services, including Galaxy Pro and any other platforms, APIs, interfaces, tools, workflows, related web sites, networks, workflows, embeddable visualizations, downloadable software, and other services we provide.
  • Section 21 contains more defined terms.

Summary

You acknowledge and agree that, as provided in greater detail in this Agreement:

  • The Services are licensed, not sold to you, and that you may use the Services only as set forth in this Agreement;
  • The Services are provided "as is" without warranties of any kind, and GalaxyWorks' liability to you is limited;
  • You are solely responsible for exporting Your Content from the Services prior to closing your GalaxyWorks account; and
  • Disputes arising hereunder will be resolved by binding arbitration, and BY ACCEPTING THIS AGREEMENT, YOU AND GALAXYWORKS ARE EACH WAIVING THE RIGHT TO A TRIAL BY JURY OR TO PARTICIPATE IN A CLASS ACTION. YOU AGREE TO GIVE UP YOUR RIGHT TO GO TO COURT to assert or defend your rights under this contract (except for matters that may be taken to small claims court). Your rights will be determined by a NEUTRAL ARBITRATOR and NOT a judge or jury and your claims cannot be brought as a class action. Please review the Arbitration Agreement in Section 18 below for the details regarding your agreement to arbitrate any disputes with GalaxyWorks.

This Agreement takes effect when you sign a contract that incorporates these terms by reference, click an "I Accept" button or checkbox presented with these terms, or, if earlier, when you use any of the Services (the "Effective Date").

We provide certain Galaxy Pro Services pursuant to a Service Level Agreement.

In addition, please see our policy on Responsible Disclosure of security vulnerabilities.

1. Eligibility

By agreeing to this Agreement, you represent and warrant to us that: (a) you have not previously been suspended or removed from the Services; and (b) your registration and your use of the Services is in compliance with all applicable laws and regulations. If you are using the Services on behalf of an entity, organization, or company, you represent and warrant that you have the authority to bind that organization to this Agreement and you agree to be bound by this Agreement on behalf of that organization. GalaxyWorks may, in its sole discretion, refuse to offer the Services to any person or entity, and may change its eligibility criteria at any time.

2. Your Account and Use of the Services

To access the Services, you must create a GalaxyWorks user account. When you register for the account(s), you may be required to provide us with some information about yourself, such as your name, email address, and company, or other contact information. You agree that the information you provide to us is accurate and that you will keep it accurate at all times. You are responsible for all activities that occur under your accounts, regardless of whether the activities are undertaken by you, your employees, or a third party (including your contractors or agents). You may create additional user accounts for users within your organization.

Each GalaxyWorks user account is protected by credentials. You are responsible for maintaining the security of your credentials. Only you are allowed to access an account registered in your name. We do not support transfer of accounts between individuals. You may not share your account or password with anyone. GalaxyWorks and our affiliates are not responsible for unauthorized access to your account, except to the extent caused by our breach of this Agreement.

If you do not abide by your obligations, or if you violate our Acceptable Use Policy, we may determine your account to be not in good standing and may take Remedial Action pursuant to Section 4. Good standing is determined at GalaxyWorks' sole discretion.

GALAXYWORKS RESERVES THE RIGHT TO DISABLE ANY USER'S ACCESS TO ANY PART OF THE SERVICE, AND TO TERMINATE ANY USER'S ACCOUNT.

You may terminate your account and this Agreement at any time in accordance with Section 10.

A. Your obligations. Your obligations include, but are not limited to, the following:

  1. Your use of the Services must comply with all applicable laws, regulations, and ordinances, including any laws regarding the export of data or software.
  2. You will provide us with true and accurate information and responses in connection with your use of the Services.
  3. You will contact us immediately if you believe an unauthorized third party may be using your account or if your account information is lost or stolen.
  4. You will not transfer or store any Private Health Information on the Service.
  5. You will not attempt to gain access to GalaxyWorks' internal administrative tools.
  6. You will not attempt to disrupt the Services.
  7. You will abide by the Acceptable Use Policy-policy.
  8. You will abide by the restrictions in our Support Policy and Security Policy on how the Services may be implemented.
  9. You will remit payment timely for the Services, as specified in the Billing Policy and any purchase order you may execute.

B. Unauthorized uses. You will not violate, and will not allow third parties under your control to violate our Acceptable Use Policy or other policies.

3. Payments, Fees, and Subscription Terms

A. Payments and fees. You incur subscription fees for your use of the Services. We bill as indicated in the GalaxyWorks Billing Policy or your purchase order, as applicable. We may invoice you more frequently if we determine that your account is at risk of non-payment. Any outstanding balance becomes immediately due and payable upon termination of this Agreement for any reason.

All amounts payable are denominated in United States dollars, and you agree to pay all such amounts in United States dollars.

We may change our Billing Policy. In the event we do so, we will give you 30 days notice before the beginning of the billing cycle during which the revised policy will be applied.

Late payments may bear interest at the rate of 1.5% per month (or the highest rate permitted by law, if less). Charges are exclusive of taxes. You are responsible for paying all reasonable expenses and attorneys fees we incur collecting late payments. We reserve the right to discontinue the provision of the Services to you for any late payments.

Fees are based on our measurements of your use of the Services. Our determination is final. To the fullest extent permitted by law, you waive all claims relating to charges unless claimed within 60 days after the charge (this does not affect your credit card issuer rights). To the fullest extent permitted by law, refunds (if any) are at our discretion and only in the form of credit for the Services. Nothing in this Agreement obligates GalaxyWorks to extend credit to any party.

B. Taxes. You are responsible for paying all taxes and government charges and will pay us for the Services without any reduction. In the event that GalaxyWorks is obligated to collect or pay taxes, those taxes will be invoiced to you, unless you provide us with a timely and valid tax exemption certificate issued by the appropriate authority for each jurisdiction in which you claim exempt status.

If any deduction or withholding is required by law, you will notify us and will pay us any additional amounts necessary to ensure that the net amount that we receive, after any deduction and withholding, equals the amount we would have received if no deduction or withholding had been required. Additionally, you will provide us with documentation showing that the withheld and deducted amounts have been paid to the relevant taxing authority.

C. Subscription terms and renewals. Unless otherwise specified in the Billing Policy or your purchase order, each Subscription Term shall automatically renew for an additional Subscription Term at GalaxyWorks’ then-current license rates unless either party cancels the active subscription at least one (1) day prior to expiration of the then-current Subscription Term.

4. Suspension, Removal, and Remedial Action

Without limiting GalaxyWorks’ termination or other rights hereunder, GalaxyWorks reserves the right with notice (emails sufficient) to suspend or remove a Galaxy Pro instance from the Services and take remedial measures to prevent harm to other customers or third parties or to preserve the security, availability or integrity of the Service. Unless this Agreement has been terminated, GalaxyWorks will cooperate to restore Customer’s access to the Service promptly after GalaxyWorks verifies that the issue requiring suspension has been resolved.

We reserve the right to suspend your account, suspend your access to the Services, and/or suspend or remove Galaxy Pro instance (take "Remedial Action") if you are in breach of this Agreement, including if you are delinquent on your payment obligations by more than 15 days. We will always try to resolve Acceptable Use issues within a mutually acceptable timeframe. We reserve the right to take unilateral Remedial Action at any time, however, to enforce our policies and ensure the safety and security of our customers and their users. If we take Remedial Action without prior notice, we will provide the reason to you as soon as is practically possible.

A. Effect of Remedial Action. If we take Remedial Action:

  1. You remain responsible for all fees and charges you have incurred through the date of the Remedial Action;
  2. You remain responsible for any applicable fees and charges for any Services to which you continue to have access;
  3. You remain responsible for applicable data storage fees and charges, and fees and charges for in-process tasks completed after the date of suspension; and
  4. You will not be entitled to any credits for any period of suspension.

5. Intellectual Property

A. Content. As between you and GalaxyWorks, you own Your Content. You are solely responsible for uploading, analysis, maintenance, and use of Your Content. For example, you are solely responsible for:

  1. Backing up and securing Content at the Galaxy Pro Instance level, except as delineated in a Business Associate Agreement you may enter into with us, or to the extent backups or security controls are provided as part of the Services;
  2. Compliance of Content with the Acceptable Use Policy, other Policies, and any applicable laws or regulations;
  3. Any claims relating to Your Content; and
  4. Properly handling and processing notices sent to you (or any of your affiliates) by any person claiming that Your Content violates such person’s rights.

You represent and warrant to us that:

  1. You or your licensors own all right, title, and interest in and to Your Content;
  2. You have all rights in Your Content necessary to grant the rights contemplated by this Agreement;
  3. None of Your Content or the Services, will violate the Acceptable Use Policy.

GalaxyWorks responds to notices of alleged copyright infringement and terminates accounts of repeat infringers according to the process set out in the U.S. Digital Millennium Copyright Act (DMCA). Please see Section 6 of this Agreement. We reserve the right to take Remedial Action upon receipt of a valid DMCA notice.

B. Proprietary rights. In general, except as expressly set forth below in Sections 7 and 8, this Agreement does not grant either party any rights, implied or otherwise, to the other's Content or any of the other's intellectual property. As between the parties, you own all intellectual property rights in your data, visualizations, and workflows, and we own all intellectual property rights in the Services.

Notwithstanding that general principle:

  1. You consent to our use of Your Content to provide the Services to you;
  2. We may disclose Your Content to provide the Services to you;
  3. We may disclose Your Content to comply with any request of a governmental or regulatory body (including subpoenas or court orders); and
  4. If you provide any suggestions to us, we will own all right, title, and interest in and to your suggestions, even if you have designated the suggestions as confidential. We and our affiliates will be entitled to use your suggestions without restriction. You hereby irrevocably assign us all right, title, and interest in and to your suggestions.

6. Digital Millennium Copyright Act

If you believe that your copyrighted work has been copied in a way that constitutes copyright infringement and is accessible via the GalaxyWorks Services, please notify our copyright agent, as set forth in the Digital Millennium Copyright Act of 1998 ("DMCA"). For your complaint to be valid under the DMCA, you must provide the following information in writing:

  1. An electronic or physical signature of a person authorized to act on behalf of the copyright owner;
  2. Identification of the copyrighted work that you claim has been infringed;
  3. Identification of the material that is claimed to be infringing and where it is located on the Service;
  4. Information reasonably sufficient to permit us to contact you, such as your organization, address, telephone number, and email address;
  5. A statement that you have a good faith belief that use of the material in the manner complained of is not authorized by the copyright owner, its agent, or law; and
  6. A statement, made under penalty of perjury, that the above information is accurate, and that you are the copyright owner or are authorized to act on behalf of the owner.

Submit the above information to:

Attn: DMCA Notices

Suite #5008

Dover, DE 19901

GalaxyWorks will promptly terminate without notice the accounts of users that are determined by GalaxyWorks to be “repeat infringers." A repeat infringer is a user who has been notified of infringing activity or has had Content removed from the Service at least twice.

This procedure is exclusively for notifying GalaxyWorks that your copyrighted material has been infringed. This policy is intended to protect and comply with GalaxyWorks' rights and obligations under the DMCA, including 17 U.S.C. § 512(c), but does not constitute legal advice. You should contact an attorney for counsel regarding your specific legal rights and obligations.

13. EXCLUSION OF WARRANTIES

EXCEPT AS EXPRESSLY PROVIDED FOR HEREIN, TO THE MAXIMUM EXTENT PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE LAW, GALAXYWORKS DOES NOT MAKE ANY OTHER WARRANTY OF ANY KIND, WHETHER EXPRESS, IMPLIED, STATUTORY OR OTHERWISE, INCLUDING WITHOUT LIMITATION WARRANTIES OF MERCHANTABILITY, FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR USE AND NONINFRINGEMENT. GALAXYWORKS IS NOT RESPONSIBLE OR LIABLE FOR THE DELETION OF OR FAILURE TO STORE ANY CONTENT AND OTHER COMMUNICATIONS MAINTAINED OR TRANSMITTED THROUGH THE USE OF THE SERVICES. YOU ARE SOLELY RESPONSIBLE FOR SECURING AND BACKING UP YOUR DATA, EXCEPT WHERE BACKUP OR SECURITY CONTROLS ARE EXPRESSLY PROVIDED AS FEATURES OF THE SERVICES. GALAXYWORKS DOES NOT WARRANT THAT THE OPERATION OF THE SERVICES WILL BE ERROR-FREE, TIMELY, OR UNINTERRUPTED. GALAXYWORKS DOES NOT WARRANT THAT THE SERVICES WILL BE SECURE, EXCEPT AS EXPRESSLY DOCUMENTED. THE SERVICES ARE NOT DESIGNED, MANUFACTURED, OR INTENDED FOR HIGH RISK ACTIVITIES. YOU UNDERSTAND THAT YOU USE THE SERVICES AT YOUR OWN DISCRETION AND RISK.

NO ADVICE OR INFORMATION, WHETHER ORAL OR WRITTEN, OBTAINED BY YOU FROM THE SERVICES OR ANY MATERIALS OR CONTENT AVAILABLE THROUGH THE SERVICES WILL CREATE ANY WARRANTY REGARDING ANY OF THE GALAXYWORKS ENTITIES OR THE SERVICES THAT IS NOT EXPRESSLY STATED IN THIS AGREEMENT. YOU ASSUME ALL RISK FOR ANY DAMAGE THAT MAY RESULT FROM YOUR USE OF OR ACCESS TO THE SERVICES AND ANY MATERIALS OR CONTENT AVAILABLE THROUGH THE SERVICES. YOU UNDERSTAND AND AGREE THAT YOU USE THE SERVICES, AND USE, ACCESS, DOWNLOAD, OR OTHERWISE OBTAIN MATERIALS OR CONTENT THROUGH THE SERVICE AND ANY ASSOCIATED SITES OR SERVICES, AT YOUR OWN DISCRETION AND RISK, AND THAT YOU ARE SOLELY RESPONSIBLE FOR ANY DAMAGE TO YOUR PROPERTY (INCLUDING YOUR COMPUTER SYSTEM OR MOBILE DEVICE USED IN CONNECTION WITH THE SERVICE), OR THE LOSS OF DATA THAT RESULTS FROM THE USE OF THE SERVICE OR THE DOWNLOAD OR USE OF THAT MATERIAL OR CONTENT.

SOME JURISDICTIONS MAY PROHIBIT A DISCLAIMER OF WARRANTIES AND YOU MAY HAVE OTHER RIGHTS THAT VARY FROM JURISDICTION TO JURISDICTION.

14. LIMITATIONS OF LIABILITY

IN NO EVENT WILL THE GALAXYWORKS ENTITIES BE LIABLE TO YOU FOR ANY INDIRECT, INCIDENTAL, SPECIAL, CONSEQUENTIAL OR PUNITIVE DAMAGES (INCLUDING DAMAGES FOR LOSS OF PROFITS, GOODWILL, OR ANY OTHER INTANGIBLE LOSS) ARISING OUT OF OR RELATING TO YOUR ACCESS TO OR USE OF, OR YOUR INABILITY TO ACCESS OR USE, THE SERVICES OR ANY MATERIALS OR CONTENT ON THE SERVICES, WHETHER BASED ON WARRANTY, CONTRACT, TORT (INCLUDING NEGLIGENCE), STATUTE, OR ANY OTHER LEGAL THEORY, AND WHETHER OR NOT ANY GALAXYWORKS ENTITY HAS BEEN INFORMED OF THE POSSIBILITY OF DAMAGE.

YOU AGREE THAT THE AGGREGATE LIABILITY OF THE GALAXYWORKS ENTITIES TO YOU FOR ALL CLAIMS ARISING OUT OF OR RELATING TO THE USE OF OR ANY INABILITY TO USE ANY PORTION OF THE SERVICE OR OTHERWISE UNDER THIS AGREEMENT, WHETHER IN CONTRACT, TORT, OR OTHERWISE, IS LIMITED TO THE AMOUNT PAID BY YOU TO GALAXYWORKS FOR ACCESS TO AND USE OF THE SERVICE IN THE 12 MONTHS PRIOR TO THE CLAIM.

SOME JURISDICTIONS DO NOT ALLOW THE EXCLUSION OR LIMITATION OF LIABILITY FOR CONSEQUENTIAL OR INCIDENTAL DAMAGES. ACCORDINGLY, THE ABOVE LIMITATION MAY NOT APPLY TO YOU.

EACH PROVISION OF THIS AGREEMENT THAT PROVIDES FOR A LIMITATION OF LIABILITY, DISCLAIMER OF WARRANTIES, OR EXCLUSION OF DAMAGES IS TO ALLOCATE THE RISKS UNDER THIS AGREEMENT BETWEEN THE PARTIES. THIS ALLOCATION IS AN ESSENTIAL ELEMENT OF THE BASIS OF THE BARGAIN BETWEEN THE PARTIES. EACH OF THESE PROVISIONS IS SEVERABLE AND INDEPENDENT OF ALL OTHER PROVISIONS OF THIS AGREEMENT. THE LIMITATIONS IN THIS SECTION 14 WILL APPLY EVEN IF ANY LIMITED REMEDY FAILS OF ITS ESSENTIAL PURPOSE.

The foregoing limitations of liability do not apply to breaches of confidentiality obligations, violations of a party's intellectual property rights by the other party, or indemnification obligations.

15. Support

We will provide technical support to you pursuant to our Support Policy. Custom Service Level Agreements or support agreements may be available.

16. Security

As with any cloud service, you have ongoing security responsibilities to protect Your Content and your Galaxy Pro Services. You hereby agree to the terms of our Security Policy.

17. Governing Law

This Agreement is governed by the laws of the State of Delaware without regard to conflict of law principles. If a lawsuit or court proceeding is permitted under this Agreement, then, unless another location is expressly specified in this Agreement, you and GalaxyWorks agree to submit to the personal and exclusive jurisdiction of the state courts and federal courts located within Dover, Delaware for the purpose of litigating any dispute.

18. Dispute Resolution and Arbitration

A. Generally. In the interest of resolving disputes between you and GalaxyWorks in the most expedient and cost effective manner, you and GalaxyWorks agree that every dispute arising in connection with this Agreement will 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 all claims arising out of or relating to any aspect of this Agreement, whether based in contract, tort, statute, fraud, misrepresentation, or any other legal theory, and regardless of whether a claim arises during or after the termination of this Agreement. YOU UNDERSTAND AND AGREE THAT, BY ENTERING INTO THIS AGREEMENT, YOU AND GALAXYWORKS ARE EACH WAIVING THE RIGHT TO A TRIAL BY JURY OR TO PARTICIPATE IN A CLASS ACTION.

B. Exceptions. Despite the provisions of Section 18(A), we both agree that nothing in Agreement will be deemed to waive, preclude, or otherwise limit the right of either of us to: (a) bring an individual action in small claims court; (b) pursue an enforcement action through the applicable federal, state, or local agency if that action is available; (c) seek injunctive relief in a court of law; or (d) to file suit in a court of law to address an intellectual property infringement claim.

C. Arbitrator. Any arbitration between you and GalaxyWorks will be governed by the Commercial Dispute Resolution Procedures and the Supplementary Procedures for Consumer Related Disputes (collectively, "AAA Rules") of the American Arbitration Association ("AAA"), as modified by this Agreement, 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 GalaxyWorks.

D. 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 if we do not have a physical address on file for you, by electronic mail ("Notice"). GalaxyWorks' address for Notice is:

GalaxyWorks LLC 8 The Green Suite #5008 Dover, DE 19901

The Notice must: (a) describe the nature and basis of the claim or dispute; and (b) set forth the specific relief sought ("Demand"). We agree to use good faith efforts to resolve the claim directly, but if we do not reach an agreement to do so within 30 days after the Notice is received, you or GalaxyWorks may commence an arbitration proceeding. During the arbitration, the amount of any settlement offer made by you or GalaxyWorks must not be disclosed to the arbitrator until after the arbitrator makes a final decision and award, if any. If our dispute is finally resolved through arbitration in your favor, GalaxyWorks will pay you the highest of the following: (i) the amount awarded by the arbitrator, if any; or (ii) the last written settlement amount offered by GalaxyWorks in settlement of the dispute prior to the arbitrator’s award.

E. Fees. If you commence arbitration in accordance with this Agreement, GalaxyWorks will reimburse you for your payment of the filing fee, unless your claim is for more than $10,000, in which case the payment of any fees will be decided by the AAA Rules. Any arbitration hearing will take place at a location to be agreed upon in Dover, Delaware, but if the claim is for $10,000 or less, you may choose whether the arbitration will be conducted: (a) solely on the basis of documents submitted to the arbitrator; (b) through a non-appearance based telephone hearing; or (c) 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 that case, you agree to reimburse GalaxyWorks 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 must 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 preceding and upon request from either party made within 14 days of the arbitrator’s ruling on the merits.

F. No Class Actions. YOU AND GALAXYWORKS 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 GalaxyWorks 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.

G. Modifications. If GalaxyWorks makes any future change to this arbitration provision (other than a change to GalaxyWorks' address for Notice), you may reject the change by sending us written notice within 30 days of the change to GalaxyWorks' address for Notice, in which case your account with GalaxyWorks will be immediately terminated and this arbitration provision, as in effect immediately prior to the amendments you reject, will survive.

H. Enforceability. If Section 18(F) is found to be unenforceable or if the entirety of this Section 18 is found to be unenforceable, then the entirety of this Section 18 will be null and void and, in that case, the parties agree that the exclusive jurisdiction and venue described in Section 17 will govern any action arising out of or related to this Agreement.

19. Notice to California Residents

If you are a California resident, under California Civil Code Section 1789.3, you may contact the Complaint Assistance Unit of the Division of Consumer Services of the California Department of Consumer Affairs in writing at 1625 N. Market Blvd., Suite S-202, Sacramento, California 95834, or by telephone at (800) 952-5210 in order to resolve a complaint regarding the Service or to receive further information regarding the use of the Service.

20. General Terms

You agree that GalaxyWorks may provide you with notices, including those regarding changes to this Agreement, by email, regular mail, or postings on the GalaxyWorks Services. By providing GalaxyWorks your email address, you consent to our using the email address to send you any notices required by law in lieu of communication by postal mail.

B. Assignment. You may not assign any part of this Agreement without our written consent. Notwithstanding the foregoing, either party may assign the entirety of its rights and obligations under this Agreement, without the consent of the other party, to its affiliate or in connection with a merger, acquisition, corporate reorganization, or sale of all or substantially all of its assets not involving a direct competitor of the other party.

C. Force Majeure. GalaxyWorks shall not be liable for failing or delaying performance of its obligations resulting from any condition beyond its reasonable control, including but not limited to, governmental action, acts of terrorism, earthquake, fire, flood or other acts of God, labor conditions, power failures, and Internet disturbances.

D. No Agency. This Agreement does not create any agency, partnership, or joint venture between the parties.

E. No Waiver. You agree that any delay or failure of GalaxyWorks to exercise or enforce any legal right or remedy which is contained in this Agreement (or which we have the benefit of under any applicable law), for any reason, does not constitute a formal waiver of our rights and that those rights or remedies will still be available to us.

F. Severability. If any term (or part of a term) of this Agreement is invalid, illegal, or unenforceable, the rest of the Agreement will remain in effect.

G. No Third-Party Beneficiaries. This Agreement does not confer any benefits on any third party unless expressly stated.
