15. Governing Law and Venue

These Terms and any dispute arising out of or relating to them or the Site are governed by the laws of the State of North Carolina, without regard to its conflict of laws principles. Subject to Section 16, any action not subject to arbitration shall be brought exclusively in the state courts of Currituck County, North Carolina, or in the United States District Court for the Eastern District of North Carolina, and you consent to the personal jurisdiction of those courts.

16. Binding Arbitration; Class Action Waiver

PLEASE READ CAREFULLY. THIS SECTION AFFECTS YOUR LEGAL RIGHTS.

16.1 Agreement to Arbitrate. You and Horizon Real Estate Group, LLC agree that any dispute, claim, or controversy arising out of or relating to these Terms, the Site, or the Services (each, a "Dispute") shall be resolved exclusively through final and binding arbitration, rather than in court, except as set forth in Section 16.5.

16.2 Informal Resolution. Before initiating arbitration, you agree to first notify us in writing at the address in Section 20 and allow thirty (30) days for informal resolution. We will do the same before initiating arbitration against you.

16.3 Arbitration Rules. Arbitration will be administered by the American Arbitration Association ("AAA") under its Consumer Arbitration Rules, as modified by these Terms. The arbitration will take place in Currituck County, North Carolina, or, at your election, by telephone or video conference. The arbitrator's decision is final and binding.

16.4 Class Action Waiver. YOU AND HORIZON REAL ESTATE GROUP, LLC AGREE THAT EACH MAY BRING CLAIMS AGAINST THE OTHER ONLY IN AN INDIVIDUAL CAPACITY AND NOT AS A PLAINTIFF OR CLASS MEMBER IN ANY PURPORTED CLASS, COLLECTIVE, OR REPRESENTATIVE ACTION. The arbitrator may not consolidate more than one person's claims and may not preside over any form of class or representative proceeding.

16.5 Exceptions. Either party may bring an action in small claims court for claims within that court's jurisdiction, or seek injunctive or equitable relief in court for claims involving intellectual property, unauthorized access, or violations of Section 8 (Prohibited Uses).

16.6 Opt-Out. You may opt out of this arbitration agreement by sending written notice to the address in Section 20 within thirty (30) days of first using the Site. The notice must include your full name, address, and a clear statement that you wish to opt out.

16.7 Severability. If the Class Action Waiver in Section 16.4 is found to be unenforceable as to any particular claim, that claim shall be severed and brought in court; the remainder of this Section 16 shall remain in effect.

17. Termination

We may suspend or terminate your access to the Site at any time, for any reason or no reason, without notice or liability. Upon termination, Sections 7, 8, 9, 12, 13, 14, 15, 16, and 19 survive.

18. Changes to These Terms

We may update these Terms at any time. Material changes will be indicated by updating the "Last Updated" date at the top and, where appropriate, by posting notice on the Site. Your continued use of the Site after changes are posted constitutes your acceptance of the revised Terms.

19. General Provisions

Severability. If any provision of these Terms is held invalid or unenforceable, the remaining provisions remain in full force and effect.

Entire Agreement. These Terms, together with our Privacy Policy, constitute the entire agreement between you and Horizon Real Estate Group, LLC regarding the Site and supersede all prior agreements.

No Waiver. Our failure to enforce any provision is not a waiver of that provision or any other right.

Assignment. You may not assign these Terms. We may assign these Terms at any time without notice.

No Third-Party Beneficiaries. These Terms do not create any third-party beneficiary rights, except that Travis Old and our affiliated agents are expressly intended beneficiaries of Sections 13 and 14.
