14. Representations and Disclaimers Related to Products or Services
Inc makes no representations, warranties, or guarantees with respect to quotes, terms, rates, coverage, or services offered to you by Agents or insurers or other third parties through Inc’s Services. Inc believes the content provided through its Services to be accurate, complete, and current. However, inadvertent technical or factual inaccuracies may arise and, therefore, Inc does not warrant that its content is accurate, complete, and current. Content that Inc provides through its Agents and/or Services is meant to assist you with insurance and financial decisions. However, such information merely constitutes a general description of insurance coverage potentially available. Any particular coverage option provided to you by Inc, its affiliated Agents or any insurance company or other third party is subject to that party’s terms, conditions, exclusions, and underwriting practices. Any coverage recommendations made by Inc or its Agents are based solely on a defined set of information provided by you and are limited to the products and coverages that Inc affiliated Agents offer. You acknowledge and agree that such recommendations may omit coverage that may be necessary or advisable for you and such recommendations may differ from recommendations that you might receive were you to seek advice specific to your individual circumstances. You must submit a complete request to obtain a particular coverage. Issuance of insurance coverage is dependent on underwriting approval of the insurance carrier; availability and coverages options may vary by state. You must verify information Inc Agents provide through its Services before relying on that information in whole or in part. We also recommend that you obtain additional information and advice from your accountant, attorney, and other advisors that can take your individual circumstances into account. The insurance policy or other product or service you purchase from outside entities other than Inc Agent affiliated carriers forms the exclusive contract between you and the insurer or other third party, and you agree to not rely on the general information or descriptions of coverage made available through Inc’s Services. Our Service may provide you with options or quotes with a third party provider of goods or services. However, you agree that we make no guarantee that all users will be provided with such a quote, and that some of these services may only be available to United States residents and corporations or only available in a portion of states. Inc may receive fees or commissions from insurers or other third parties with respect to certain transactions made in connection with our Services. Nevertheless, you acknowledge that we are not responsible for any fee arrangement or the terms of any agreement you may enter into with a provider of a product or service through our Services. You hereby release Inc of any loss, cost, damages, or claim in connection with or arising from your use of a service or product, including any fees charged.

24. Arbitration Agreement and Waiver of Class Remedies
(a) Arbitration Agreement
You and we agree that any “Dispute” arising out of or relating in any way to our Services, these Terms of Service, your visit to our use of our websites, any products or services offered through our websites, or the enforceability, validity, or applicability or this Arbitration Agreement or class waiver shall be finally resolved by binding arbitration following the parties’ best efforts to settle such Dispute. “Dispute,” is defined as any claim, controversy, or action, whether brought under contract, tort, in law or equity, or under any regulation or statute.
30 days prior to initiating any arbitration proceeding, the party seeking resolution of a Dispute shall provide notice of the Dispute to other party and engage in a meaningful good faith effort to resolve the Dispute. If a binding arbitration occurs, it shall be administered by the American Arbitration Association (“AAA”) under its Commercial Arbitration Rules and its procedures for consumer disputes, except for any rules or procedures permitting class actions or otherwise contradictory to the Terms of Service. An arbitrator shall have exclusive authority to resolve all disputes, including whether any particular Dispute is within the scope of this Arbitration Agreement, or this or any other provision contained in the Terms of Service is void or voidable. The arbitrator’s award shall be binding and entered as a judgment in any court of competent jurisdiction and in accordance with the Governing Law and Jurisdiction clause of the Terms of Service.
YOU UNDERSTAND THAT YOU ARE WAIVING YOUR RIGHT TO A JURY TRIAL AND YOUR RIGHT TO BRING ANY DISPUTE AS A CLAIM OR COLLECTIVE ACTION UNDER THIS AGREEMENT. YOU UNDERSTAND THAT, ABSENT THIS ARBITRATION AGREEMENT PROVISION, YOU MAY OTHERWISE HAVE THE RIGHT TO SUE IN A COURT OF LAW, AND MAY HAVE THE RIGHT TO A TRIAL BY JURY. WHILE ARBITRATION IS INTENDED TO BE MORE COST-EFFECTIVE, IN SOME INSTANCES THE COST OF ARBITRATION MAY EXCEED THE COST OF CIVIL LITIGATION IN A COURT. MOREOVER, THE RULES AND PROCEDURES OF ARBITRATION MAY LIMIT DISCOVERY.
(b) Waiver of Class Remedies
The parties agree that any arbitration shall be conducted only in their individual entity capacities, and the parties expressly forego the right or option to file or join a class action or other representative action. Should any court or arbitrator determine that the class action waiver set forth in this section is void or otherwise unenforceable, or that an arbitration can proceed on a class basis, then the arbitration provision shall be deemed null and void in its entirety, and the parties shall be deemed to have not agreed to arbitrate any dispute.
(c) Exception: Litigation of Small Claims Court Claims
Notwithstanding the parties’ decision to resolve all disputes through arbitration, relief may also be sought in a small claims court for disputes or claims within that court’s jurisdiction—subject to the Governing Law and Jurisdiction clause of the Terms of Service.
25. No Oral Modification
The Terms of Service may not be modified through oral agreement or statements. The individual employees of Inc, Inc’s partners, and Inc’s third party affiliates are not authorized to modify the Terms of Service except by the mechanism stated herein. Any person offering to modify the Terms of Service is not acting as an agent of Inc or with proper authority to bind Inc. You agree not to rely on any statement, written or oral, by any employee or agent of Inc or any third party with respect to modification or interpretation of the Terms of Service.
26. Communications With Inc
In using our Services, you may choose to communicate with us by providing us with feedback, comments, questions, or proposals. Under no circumstance will your submission of information obligate Next to pay you compensation.

When you submit contact information to us as part of an attempted or completed request for a quote or offer for goods or services, you consent to receive telephone calls, emails, text messages, mailers, or other similar communications in connection with these goods and services. This is true even if your phone number is on any “do not call” list.
27. Severability
Except as otherwise provided herein, in the event that any provision contained within the Terms of Service is deemed to be unenforceable, invalid, or ambiguous, such provision shall be limited or discarded to the minimum extent necessary so that the remaining provisions of the Terms of Service remain in full force and enforceable.
28. Non-Waiver
Neither party shall be deemed to have waived, in whole or in part, any of its rights granted herein by its failure to exercise, in whole or in part, any right herein.
29. Force Majeure
Neither party shall be responsible for any delay or failure in any performance due to acts of God, war, warlike conditions, blockade, embargoes, riots, government restriction, labor disturbances, unavailability of anticipated or usual means of supplies, wrecks, epidemics, quarantine, fire, flood, earthquake, explosion, any unforeseen change in circumstances, or any other causes beyond any party’s reasonable control.
