Governing Law; Arbitration
At English3’s election and in its sole discretion, all disputes, claims, or controversies arising out of or relating
to these Terms or the Website that are not resolved by mutual agreement may be resolved by binding arbitration.
Unless otherwise agreed by the parties, arbitration will be held in Phoenix, Arizona, USA, before a single
arbitrator mutually agreed upon by the parties. The arbitration must commence within forty-five (45) days of the
date on which a written demand for arbitration is filed by either party. The arbitrator’s decision and award shall
be made and delivered within sixty (60) days of the conclusion of the arbitration and within six (6) months of the
selection of the arbitrator. The arbitrator will not have the power to award damages in excess of the limitation on
actual compensatory, direct damages set forth in the Terms and may not multiply actual damages or award punitive
damages or any other damages that are specifically excluded under the Terms, and each party hereby irrevocably
waives any claim to such damages. The arbitrator may, in his or her discretion, assess costs and expenses (including
the reasonable legal fees and expenses of the prevailing part) against any party to a proceeding. Any party refusing
to comply with an order of the arbitrators will be liable for costs and expenses, including attorneys’ fees,
incurred by the other party in enforcing the award. Notwithstanding the foregoing, in the case of temporary or
preliminary injunctive relief, any party may proceed in court without prior arbitration for the purpose of avoiding
immediate and irreparable harm. The provisions of this arbitration section will be enforceable in any court of
competent jurisdiction.
Indemnity
You agree to indemnify and hold English3 harmless from and against any loss, liability, claim, demand, damages,
costs and expenses, including reasonable attorney’s fees, arising out of or in connection with any User Data you
post or distribute on or through the Services, your use of the Services, your interactions with other Users of the
Services, or any violation of these Terms or of any law or the rights of any third party or otherwise arising out of
your use of the Services.
Miscellaneous
These Terms constitute the entire agreement between you and English3 regarding the use of the Services and supersede
any prior agreements between you and English3 relating to your use of the Services. The failure of English3 to
exercise or enforce any right or provision of these Terms shall not constitute a waiver of such right or provision
in that or any other instance. If any provision of these Terms is determined to be unlawful, void or for any reason
unenforceable, such determination shall not affect the validity and enforceability of any of the remaining
provisions.

We use a third party tool to translate in real time. Some Usage Information may be visible to the operator of this
tool but cannot be associated with a User.
Your e-mail inquiries through the “Support” and “Contact Us” functions are routed and stored by a third party
service provider. Our choice of provider is subject to change in our sole discretion and without updating this
Policy.

At any time, you may contact English3 to request that we make changes to your Personal Information or delete your

request.
