3.2 Customer Data and Privacy.

Bounce ensures apps utilize the latest version of Docker containers that carry with them up-to-date security patches. Containers are segregated within a host using namespaces; it is not possible for containers to communicate between namespaces, even when on the same host. Bounce does not log anything sensitive to user privacy at all. However, in some cases we add an engineer of one of our clients to our Key Management System (KMS) GitHub repo to ensure that any key can be passed to our client safely. We will ultimately supply two ways for manage our clients’ key info: (1) via SDK; and 2) by managing key on the web manage system (available by Sep 2021).

14. General

14.1 Governing Law and Venue.

This Agreement and any Services provided hereunder will be governed exclusively by the laws applicable in the State of California, excluding its provisions on conflicts or choice of law. Subject to the arbitration provision below, Customer irrevocably and unconditionally consent to submit to the exclusive jurisdiction and venue of the state courts in San Francisco County, California or federal court for the Northern District of California with respect to any dispute or litigation arising under this Agreement or as the result of any services.

14.2 Binding Arbitration.

Any dispute, claim or controversy arising out of or relating to the services, this agreement or the breach, termination, enforcement, interpretation or validity thereof, including the determination of the scope or applicability of this agreement to arbitrate, shall be determined by binding arbitration rather than a court in San Francisco, California before a sole arbitrator. The arbitration shall be administered by JAMS pursuant to streamlined arbitration rules and procedures, and the arbitrator shall apply the laws applicable in the state of California. Judgment on the award may be entered in any court having jurisdiction as specified above under “governing law and venue.” This clause shall not preclude parties from seeking injunctions or other forms of equitable relief or provisional remedies in aid of arbitration from a court of appropriate jurisdiction. Customer agrees that all disputes must be brought in Customer’s individual capacity and not as a Plaintiff or class member in any purported class or representative proceeding. By entering into this agreement and agreeing to arbitration, Customer agrees that it is waiving the right to file a lawsuit and the right to a trial by jury. In addition, Customer agrees to waive the right to participate in a class action or litigation on a class-wide basis. Customer agrees that it has expressly and knowingly waived these rights. In any arbitration, the arbitrator may, in the award, allocate all or part of the costs of the arbitration including the fees of the arbitrator and the reasonable attorneys’ fees of the prevailing party, and shall determine the prevailing party for this purpose.

14.3 Limitation on Time to File Claims.

Any cause of action or claim Customer may have arising out of or relating to these Terms of Use or the Website must be commenced within one (1) year after the cause of action accrues; otherwise, such cause of action or claim is permanently barred.

14.4 Waiver and Severability.

The failure of Bounce to exercise or enforce any rights or provisions in these Terms of Use shall not constitute a waiver of such right or provision. If any part or provision of these Terms of Use is found to be unenforceable, such part or provision may be modified to make the Terms of Use as modified legal and enforceable. The balance of the Terms of Use shall not be affected.

14.5 Force Majeure.

If either Party is prevented from performing, or is unable to perform, any of its obligations under this Agreement (other than payment obligations) due to any cause beyond its reasonable control, e.g. war, riots, labor unrest, fire, earthquake, flood, hurricane, other natural disasters and acts of God, internet service failures or delays, and denial of service attacks (collectively, “Force Majeure”), the affected Party’s performance will be excused for the resulting period of delay or inability to perform.

Persons who are not the age of majority are not eligible to use the Website, and we ask that no information in relation to such persons be submitted to us.
