Binding Arbitration
Certain portions of this Section are deemed to be a "written agreement to arbitrate" pursuant to the Federal Arbitration Act. Each of Publisher and Flurry agrees that it intend that this Section satisfies the "writing" requirement of the Federal Arbitration Act.
Publisher or Flurry may elect to have any controversy, allegation or claim arising out of or relating to this Agreement, the Services or the User Data, including but not limited to claims for indemnification, contribution, or cross-claims in a pending action involving one or more third parties (collectively, a "Dispute") finally and exclusively resolved by binding arbitration before a sole arbitrator under the rules and regulations of the American Arbitration Association.

All parties to the arbitration will have the right, at their own expense, to be represented by an attorney or other advocate of their choosing. Publisher and Flurry will pay the administrative and arbitrator's fees and other costs in accordance with the applicable arbitration rules; but if applicable arbitration rules or laws require Flurry to pay a greater portion or all of such fees and costs in order for this Section to be enforceable, then Flurry will have the right to elect to pay the fees and costs and proceed to arbitration.

PUBLISHER AGREES TO WAIVE HIS/HER/ITS RIGHT TO A JURY TRIAL AND UNDERSTAND THAT, ABSENT THIS PROVISION, PUBLISHER WOULD HAVE THE RIGHT TO SUE IN COURT. THE SCOPE OF THIS WAIVER IS INTENDED TO BE ALL-ENCOMPASSING OF ANY AND ALL DISPUTES THAT MAY BE FILED IN ANY COURT AND THAT RELATE TO THE SUBJECT MATTER OF THIS AGREEMENT, INCLUDING, WITHOUT LIMITATION, CONTRACT CLAIMS, TORT CLAIMS AND ALL OTHER COMMON LAW AND STATUTORY CLAIMS.
TO THE FULLEST EXTENT PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE LAW, IF PUBLISHER OR FLURRY WANTS TO ASSERT A DISPUTE AGAINST THE OTHER, THEN PUBLISHER OR FLURRY MUST COMMENCE IT WITHIN ONE (1) YEAR AFTER THE DISPUTE ARISES - OR IT WILL BE FOREVER BARRED.
In the event either Publisher or Flurry elects arbitration, for any Dispute where the total amount of the award sought is less than $10,000 USD, the party requesting relief may further elect to resolve the dispute in a cost effective manner through binding non-appearance-based arbitration through an established alternative dispute resolution ("ADR") provider mutually agreed upon by the parties. The ADR provider and the parties must comply with the following rules: (i) the arbitration shall be conducted by telephone, online and/or be solely based on written submissions, and the specific manner shall be chosen by the party initiating the arbitration; (ii) the arbitration shall not involve any personal appearance by the parties or witnesses unless otherwise mutually agreed by the parties; and (iii) any judgment on the award rendered by the arbitrator shall be final and may be entered in any court of competent jurisdiction.
Entire Agreement
This Agreement constitutes the entire agreement between Publisher and Flurry and governs Publisher's use of the Services, superseding any prior agreements between Publisher and Flurry with respect to the Services.

The terms and conditions contained in this Agreement that by their sense and context are intended to survive the performance hereof by the parties hereunder, including but not limited to the provisions relating to Indemnity, Disclaimer of Warranties and Limitation of Liability, shall so survive the completion of the performance, cancellation or termination of this Agreement.
