15. GENERAL INFORMATION 

Entire Agreement. 

These General Terms and Conditions (including any general rules, guidelines, and subsequent amendments that may be presented to you, including the Program Rules) constitute the entire agreement between you and Concepsim. They govern your use of the AssisTime services and supersede any prior agreement between you and Concepsim relating to your use of the AssisTime services. You may also be subject to additional terms and conditions if you use or purchase other AssisTime services.

Governing Law and Jurisdiction. 

These General Terms and Conditions and the relationship between you and Concepsim will be governed by the laws of the Province of Quebec, without regard to its conflict-of-laws provisions. You and Concepsim agree to submit to the exclusive personal jurisdiction of the courts of the judicial district of Bedford, Quebec. 

Waiver and Severability of the General Terms and Conditions.

 

Concepsim’s failure to exercise or enforce any right or provision of these General Terms and Conditions shall not constitute a waiver of such right or provision. If any provision of these General Terms and Conditions is found to be invalid by a court of competent jurisdiction, the parties nevertheless agree that the court shall endeavor to give effect to the parties’ intentions as reflected in the provision, and that the remaining provisions of these General Terms and Conditions shall remain in full force and effect.  

Limitations. 

You acknowledge that, notwithstanding any law to the contrary, any claim or cause of action arising out of or relating to your use of the AssisTime services or the application of the General Terms and Conditions must be brought within one (1) year after the claim or cause of action arises, failing which it will be barred.
