Résuméfit's right to comply with law enforcement requests or requirements
relating to your use of the Site or information provided to or gathered by Résuméfit

respect to such use. These terms represent a binding agreement between Résuméfit
and you, and our respective successors and assigns. A printed version of the
terms and conditions set forth herein and of any notice given in electronic form
shall 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. These terms shall be governed by the laws of the State of North Carolina
and relevant federal laws, and irrevocable consent is hereby granted by both
parties to the exclusive jurisdiction and subject to the dispute resolution procedures
set forth in Section 10, above, venue for any action or dispute in the state
and federal courts located in Charlotte, North Carolina, U.S.A. Use of this Site
is unauthorized in any jurisdiction that does not give effect to all provisions
of these terms and conditions, including without limitation this paragraph. Notwithstanding
the foregoing sentence, these terms shall be severable and construed to the extent
of their enforceability in light of the parties' mutual intent if deemed at all
unenforceable by a competent court. Given the nature of these terms, you understand
and agree that, in addition to money damages, Résuméfit will be
entitled to equitable relief upon a breach of them by you. No waiver of any obligation
or right of either party shall be effective unless in writing, executed by the
party against whom it is being enforced. All rights not expressly granted herein
are hereby
reserved by Résuméfit.
