This Agreement is governed by the laws of the State of Delaware, without regard to its conflict-of-laws principles. The offer and acceptance of this Agreement is deemed to have occurred in Delaware.
Arbitration. Any dispute related to your use of the Website or this Agreement shall be resolved by confidential, binding arbitration in New Castle County, Delaware (conducted in English) under the American Arbitration Association Consumer Rules then in effect, before a single arbitrator. Each party bears its own fees and costs. To the fullest extent permitted by law, arbitration shall proceed only on an individual basis and not in a class, representative, or collective action.
Court Venue (if arbitration is unavailable or for permitted claims). If applicable law does not allow arbitration, or where a claim is expressly permitted to proceed in court (e.g., intellectual-property ownership or equitable relief), the state or federal courts located in New Castle County, Delaware shall have exclusive jurisdiction and venue, and the parties consent to personal jurisdiction there.
Arbitration Opt-Out. You may opt out of arbitration within 30 days of first agreeing to this Agreement by writing to:
Found & Co LLC d/b/a Small Great Ventures
611 South Dupont Highway, Suite 102, Dover, DE 19901
Attn: Arbitration Opt-Out
Include your name, address, any account info (if applicable), and a clear statement that you opt out of arbitration. If you opt out, the Delaware courts specified above will handle disputes.
Limitations Period. Any claim arising out of or relating to the Website or this Agreement must be filed within one (1) year after the claim accrues or be forever barred.
All proceedings must be conducted on an individual basis. You and GoodChat waive any right to participate in a class, representative, or collective action.
If any provision is found unenforceable, the remaining provisions remain in full force. If provisions conflict, GoodChat may elect which provision governs.
Our failure to enforce any provision is not a waiver of our right to do so later.
You may not assign this Agreement without our prior written consent; we may assign it without restriction. Provisions that by their nature should survive termination (e.g., IP, disclaimers, limitations of liability, indemnities, arbitration) will survive.
You may stop using the Website at any time. To request data deletion consistent with the Privacy Policy, contact hello@goodchats.co. We may suspend or terminate access if: (1) you violate law or this Agreement; or (2) we believe your actions may harm GoodChat, our business interests, or a third party.

Where this Agreement conflicts with other Website documentation, this Agreement controls.
We may amend this Agreement by updating this page and the “Last Modified” date, or by reasonable notice. If you do not agree to updated terms, discontinue use of the Website.
We are not liable for delays or failures caused by events beyond our reasonable control, including failures of telecommunications, labor disputes, acts of nature, war, civil disturbance, or governmental action.
