The Site may contain links or access to third-party content, websites, services, or systems, including portfolio companies in investments managed by Paradigm. Paradigm does not endorse any third-party content, websites, services, or systems, or guarantee their quality, accuracy, reliability, completeness, currency, timeliness, non-infringement, merchantability, or fitness for any purpose. Third-party content, websites, services, or systems are not under the control of Paradigm, and if you choose to access any such content, websites, services, or systems, you do so entirely at your own risk. Your interactions with such third parties will be governed by the third parties’ own terms of service and privacy policies, and any other similar terms.
We reserve the right at any time to modify, edit, delete, suspend or discontinue, temporarily or permanently, the Site (or any portion thereof) and/or the information, materials, products and/or services available through Paradigm (or any part thereof) with or without notice. You agree that we shall not be liable to you or to any third party in such event.
You are responsible for your use of the Site, and you agree to release and defend, indemnify, and hold harmless Paradigm and its officers, directors, employees, contractors, consultants, affiliates, investors, service providers, business partners, subsidiaries and agents from and against every claim, liability, damage, loss, and expense, including reasonable attorneys’ fees and costs, arising out of or in any way connected with: (i) your violation of any of these Terms, any representation, warranty, or agreement referenced in these Terms, or any applicable law or regulation; (ii) your violation of any third-party right, including any intellectual property right or right of publicity, confidentiality, other property, or privacy right; or (iii) any dispute or issue between you and any third party arising out of your access to the Site.
Paradigm reserves the right, at our own expense, to assume the exclusive defense and control of any matter otherwise subject to indemnification by you (without limiting your indemnification obligations) and you agree to cooperate with our defense of that claim. If the defense or settlement is assumed by you, Paradigm may at any time thereafter elect to take over control of the defense and settlement of the claim. You must not settle any claim without Paradigm’s prior written consent.
You further release Paradigm, its officers, employees, agents, and successors from claims, demands, and damages of every kind or nature, known or unknown, suspected or unsuspected, disclosed or undisclosed, arising out of or in any way related to such disputes and/or the Site. If you are a California resident, you waive California Civil Code Section 1542, which provides:
A general release does not extend to claims that the creditor or releasing party does not know or suspect to exist in his or her favor at the time of executing the release and that, if known by him or her, would have materially affected his or her settlement with the debtor or released party.
If you are not a California resident, you waive your rights under any statute or common law principle similar to Section 1542 that governs your rights in the jurisdiction of your residence.
We reserve the right to update or modify the Terms at any time without prior notice, and unless otherwise stated, such changes will be effective immediately upon being posted through the Site. Your use of the Site following any such change constitutes your agreement to be bound by the modified Terms.
Entire Agreement. These Terms (together with our Privacy Policy and any other legal documents, policies, terms, or agreements governing the Site) comprise the entire agreement between you and Paradigm with regard to the Site and supersedes all prior or contemporaneous negotiations, discussions or agreements, whether written or oral, between the parties regarding the subject matter contained in these Terms.
Assignment. You may not assign or transfer these Terms or your rights under these Terms, in whole or in part, by operation of law or otherwise, without our prior written consent. We may assign these Terms in whole or in part at any time to any entity without your notice or consent. Any purported assignment by you in violation of this section shall be void.
No Waiver. Our failure at any time to require performance of any provision of these Terms or to exercise any right provided for herein will not be deemed a waiver of such provision or such right. All waivers must be in writing. Unless the written waiver contains an express statement to the contrary, no waiver by Paradigm of any breach of any provision of these Terms or of any right provided for herein will be construed as a waiver of any continuing or succeeding breach of such provision, a waiver of the provision itself, or a waiver of any right herein.
Severability. If any provision of these Terms is held to be invalid or unenforceable, such provision shall be struck, and the remaining provisions shall be enforced to the fullest extent under law.
Governing Law and Venue. These Terms are governed by the laws of the State of California without regard to conflict of law principles. You and Paradigm agree to submit to the personal and exclusive jurisdiction of the state courts and federal courts located within the State of California.
No Agency. No joint venture, partnership, employment, or agency relationship exists between you, Paradigm, or any third-party provider as a result of the Terms or use of the Site.
