EQ Office and you acknowledge that this EULA is concluded between EQ Office and you only, and not with Apple Inc. or third parties that operate using the Android operating system, which is owned by Google Inc.

No proceeding will be combined with another without the prior written consent of all parties to all affected proceedings.  If this class action waiver is found to be illegal or unenforceable as to all or some parts of a dispute, then this section will not apply to those parts.

General

This EULA constitutes the entire agreement between you and EQ Office and governs your use of the Software on one Device, superseding any prior agreements between you and EQ Office with respect to the Software on such Device.  You also may be subject to additional terms and conditions that may apply when you use affiliate or third party services, third party content or third party software. This EULA will be governed by the laws of the Commonwealth of Massachusetts without regard to its conflict of law provisions.  You and EQ Office agree to submit to the personal and exclusive jurisdiction of the state and federal courts located within Boston, Massachusetts. The failure of EQ Office to exercise or enforce any right or provision of this EULA will not constitute a waiver of such right or provision. If any provision of this EULA is found by a court of competent jurisdiction to be invalid, the parties nevertheless agree that the court should endeavor to give effect to the parties’ intentions as reflected in the provision, and the other provisions of this EULA remain in full force and effect.  You agree that regardless of any statute or law to the contrary, any claim or cause of action arising out of or related to use of the EQ Office Service or this EULA must be filed within one (1) year after such claim or cause of action arose or be forever barred. A printed version of this agreement and of any notice given in electronic form will be admissible in judicial or administrative proceedings based upon or relating to this agreement to the same extent and subject to the same conditions as other business documents and records originally generated and maintained in printed form.  You may not assign this EULA without the prior written consent of EQ Office, but EQ Office may assign or transfer this EULA, in whole or in part, without restriction. The section titles in this EULA are for convenience only and have no legal or contractual effect. Notices to you may be made via either email or regular mail.
