Waiver of Jury Trial and Class Action Rights
You and aistory.world agree that by entering into these Terms, you and aistory.world are each waiving the right to a trial by jury or to participate in a class action. Your rights will be determined by a neutral arbitrator, not a judge or jury.
How to Opt Out
If you do not wish to be bound by the arbitration agreement, you must notify aistory.world in writing via email (sent to aistorypro.world@gmail.com) within 30 days of the date you first agreed to these Terms, stating that you do not wish to resolve disputes with aistory.world through arbitration. Opting out of the arbitration agreement will not affect any other part of these Terms.
Pre-Arbitration Dispute Resolution Process
aistory.world is always committed to resolving disputes amicably and fairly. If you have any concerns, we strongly encourage you to first contact us at aistorypro.world@gmail.com. You and aistory.world agree to attempt to resolve any claim informally for 60 calendar days before initiating arbitration.
Small Claims
Either you or aistory.world may bring an individual action in small claims court seeking individual (non-class) relief, provided that the action is not transferred or appealed to a court of general jurisdiction or federal jurisdiction.
10. Termination
You agree that aistory.world may, in its sole discretion, suspend or terminate your account (or any part thereof) or your use of the Services and remove and discard any content within the Services for any reason, including, without limitation, for lack of use or if aistory.world believes that you have violated or acted inconsistently with the letter or spirit of these Terms.
You agree that aistory.world shall not be liable to you or any third party for any termination of your access to the Services. Termination of your account or your access to any component of the Services will not terminate aistory.world's rights to your content.
11. General
Entire Agreement
These Terms constitute the entire agreement between you and aistory.world and govern your use of our Services, superseding any prior agreements between you and aistory.world with respect to the Services.
Governing Law, Jurisdiction, and Venue
If you are not a consumer in the European Economic Area, these Terms shall be governed by the laws of California, without regard to its conflict of law provisions. For any dispute or claim not subject to arbitration described above, you and aistory.world agree to submit to the exclusive jurisdiction of the state and federal courts located in Santa Clara County, California.
Severability
If any provision of these Terms is found to be invalid by a court of competent jurisdiction, the parties nevertheless agree that the court should endeavor to give effect to the parties' intentions as reflected in the provision, and the other provisions of these Terms remain in full force and effect.
No Waiver
The failure of aistory.world to exercise or enforce any right or provision of these Terms shall not constitute a waiver of such right or provision.

You agree that regardless of any statute or law to the contrary, any claim or cause of action arising out of or related to use of the Services or these Terms must be filed within one year after such claim or cause of action arose or be forever barred.
Assignment
You may not assign these Terms without the prior written approval of aistory.world, but aistory.world may assign these Terms in whole or in part without restriction.
Notices
We will send you notices by email or by posting on the Services. You agree to provide aistory.world with a valid email address, to check your email regularly for messages from aistory.world, and to provide aistory.world with an updated email address if your previously provided email address is unable to receive email.
12. Changes to These Terms
We reserve the right, at our sole discretion, to change or modify portions of these Terms at any time. If we do this, we will post the changes on this page and will indicate at the top of the page the date these Terms were last revised. Significant changes will become effective at least 30 days after posting, except changes to new features of the Services or changes made for legal reasons which will be effective immediately.
