16. GENERAL INFORMATION

The TOS constitute the entire agreement between you and The Land Investment Association and govern your use of the Site and the Services, superceding any prior agreements between you and The Land Investment Association.

The parties agree that the exclusive venue for any dispute arising out of or relating to the TOS, the Content or the Site will be in the state and federal courts located in Jacksonville, Duval County, Florida, and the parties consent to the personal jurisdiction of such courts. The parties agree that the TOS shall not be governed by the Uniform Computer Information Transactions Act (“UCITA”) should that Act be in force or later enacted in any jurisdiction governing the TOS. If any part of the TOS is unlawful, void or unenforceable, that part will be deemed severable and will not affect the validity and enforceability of any remaining provisions; however, a court reaching such a conclusion shall first endeavor to give effect to the parties’ intentions as reflected in the provision. Notwithstanding the foregoing, any additional terms and conditions on the Site will govern the items to which they pertain. The failure of The Land Investment Association to exercise or enforce any right or provision of the TOS shall not constitute a waiver of such right or provision.
