Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, this Agreement supersedes the following, each of which shall be deemed rejected, void and of no effect: (i) any shrink-wrap, click-wrap, or similar terms and conditions that accompany, or are included within, the Service, even if use of the Service requires an affirmative “acceptance” thereof (unless you are accepting these Terms as part of your initial access to the Service); and (ii) any terms or conditions (whether printed, hyperlinked, or otherwise) in any purchase order or other standardized business forms, which purport to supersede, modify, or supplement this Agreement. The section and subsection headings used in this Agreement are for convenience of reading only, and shall not be used or relief upon to interpret this Agreement. This Agreement may be executed in any number of counterparts (including digitally, electronically scanned and e-mailed PDF copies, and any similarly signed and electronically or digitally transmitted copies) each of which will be considered an original, but all of which together will constitute one and the same instrument.
. Amendment. This Agreement may only be modified or supplemented by a written instrument (referencing this Agreement) duly signed by each Party.
. Assignment. This Agreement may not be assigned by you, in whole or in part, without our prior express written consent. We may assign this Agreement, in whole or in part, without restriction or obligation. Furthermore, any of our obligations hereunder may be performed (in whole or in part), and any of our rights (including invoice and payment rights) or remedies hereunder may be exercised (in whole or in part), by our Affiliates. Any prohibited assignment will be null and void. Subject to the provisions of this Section (Assignment), this Agreement will bind and inure to the benefit of each Party and its respective successors and assigns.

Any claim, dispute or controversy between the Parties will be subject to the exclusive jurisdiction and venue of the courts located in Tel Aviv, Israel and each Party hereby irrevocably submits to the personal jurisdiction of such courts and waives any jurisdictional, venue, or inconvenient forum objections to such courts. Notwithstanding the foregoing, each Party may seek equitable relief in any court of competent jurisdiction. EXCEPT TO SEEK EQUITABLE RELIEF, PAYMENT OF FEES, OR TO OTHERWISE PROTECT OR ENFORCE A PARTY’S INTELLECTUAL PROPERTY RIGHTS, NO ACTION, REGARDLESS OF FORM, UNDER THIS AGREEMENT MAY BE BROUGHT BY EITHER PARTY MORE THAN ONE (1) YEAR AFTER THE DATE ON WHICH THE CORRESPONDING LIABILITY AROSE. Any claims or damages that you may have against us shall only be enforceable against us, and not any other entity or our officers, directors, representatives, employees, or agents.
. Severability. If any provision of this Agreement is held by a court of competent jurisdiction to be illegal, invalid or unenforceable, then: (a) the remaining provisions of this Agreement shall remain in full force and effect; and (b) such provision will be ineffective solely as to such jurisdiction, and will be substituted (in respect of such jurisdiction) with a valid, legal and enforceable provision that most closely approximates the original legal intent and economic impact of such provision.
. Publicity. We may use your name and logo on the Site and in our promotional materials to state that you are a customer of the Service. Moreover: (a) Customer agrees to provide a quote from one of Customer’s executives about the Service, for publication on the Site and marketing materials; and (b) Customer agrees to reasonably cooperate with Sherloq in the creation and promotion of a case-study to be published on Sherloq’s website and marketing materials. For the avoidance of doubt, use and publication of such quotes and case-study shall be at Sherloq’s sole discretion.
. Privacy. We may collect certain data and information about you in connection with your access and use of the Services, as well as your interaction with any third party providers.
. Waiver and Remedies. No failure or delay on the part of either Party in exercising any right or remedy hereunder will operate as a waiver thereof, nor will any single or partial exercise of any such right or remedy preclude any other or further exercise thereof, or the exercise of any other right or remedy. Any waiver granted hereunder must be in writing, duly signed by the waiving Party, and will be valid only in the specific instance in which given. Except as may be expressly provided otherwise in this Agreement, no right or remedy conferred upon or reserved by either Party under this Agreement is intended to be, or will be deemed, exclusive of any other right or remedy under this Agreement, at law, or in equity, but will be cumulative of such other rights and remedies.
. Third Party Software. The Service may include what is commonly referred to as ‘open source’ software. Under some of their respective license terms and conditions, Sherloq may be required to provide Customer with notice of the license terms and attribution to the third party, in which case Sherloq may provide Customer with such information (whether via the Service, via Sherloq’s website, or otherwise). Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, use of the open source software will be subject to the license terms and conditions applicable to such open source software, to the extent required by the applicable licensor (which terms and conditions shall not restrict the license rights granted to Customer hereunder). Sherloq will comply with any valid written request submitted by Customer to Sherloq for exercising any rights Customer may have under such license terms and conditions.
. Relationship. The relationship of the Parties is solely that of independent contractors, and nothing in this Agreement shall be construed to create a relationship of employer and employee, principal and agent, joint venture, franchise, fiduciary, partnership, association, or otherwise between the Parties. Except to the extent required by us in connection with the provision of the Service and/or the performance of our obligations hereunder, neither Party has any authority to enter into agreements of any kind on behalf of the other Party and neither Party will create or attempt to create any obligation, express or implied, on behalf of the other Party.
. Force Majeure. Neither Party shall have any liability for any performance (excluding payment obligations) under this Agreement that is prevented, hindered, or delayed by reason of an event of Force Majeure (defined below). The Party so affected shall be excused from such performance to the extent that, and for so long as, performance is prevented, interrupted, or delayed by the Force Majeure. If and when performance is resumed, all dates specified under this Agreement shall be automatically adjusted to reflect the period of such prevention, interruption, or delay by reason of such Force Majeure. For purposes of this Agreement, an event of “Force Majeure” shall be defined as: (a) fire, flood, earthquake, explosion, pandemic or epidemic (or similar regional health crisis), or act of God; (b) strikes, lockouts, picketing, concerted labor action, work stoppages, other labor or industrial disturbances, or shortages of materials or equipment, not the fault of either party; (c) invasion, war (declared or undeclared), terrorism, riot, or civil commotion; (d) an act of
