Some jurisdictions do not allow certain limitations of liability, so some of the above limitations may not apply to you.
You agree to indemnify, defend, and hold harmless New Home Star, its affiliates, and their respective officers, directors, managers, employees, agents, representatives, contractors, licensors, and service providers from and against any claims, causes of action, damages, liabilities, judgments, losses, costs, and expenses, including reasonable attorneys’ fees, arising out of or related to:

Upon termination, you must cease all use of the Site and any content obtained from it.
The provisions of these Terms that by their nature should survive termination shall survive, including intellectual property rights, disclaimers, limitations of liability, indemnification, governing law, arbitration, class action waiver, jury trial waiver, and related dispute provisions.

These Terms and any dispute arising out of or related to these Terms, the Site, or your use of the Site shall be governed by and construed in accordance with the laws of the State of Illinois, without regard to conflict of law principles.
Subject to the arbitration provisions below, the exclusive venue for any court proceeding arising out of or related to these Terms or the Site shall be the state or federal courts located in or serving DuPage County, Illinois, and you consent to the personal jurisdiction of such courts.
Before initiating arbitration or filing a legal claim, you agree to first attempt to resolve the dispute informally by contacting New Home Star at:
Email: info@newhomestar.com
Your notice should include your name, contact information, a description of the dispute, and the relief you seek.
New Home Star will also attempt to resolve disputes informally where appropriate. If the dispute is not resolved within thirty (30) days after notice is received, either party may proceed as permitted under these Terms.
To the fullest extent permitted by law, you and New Home Star agree that any dispute, claim, or controversy arising out of or relating to these Terms, the Site, communications with New Home Star, or your relationship with New Home Star through the Site shall be resolved by binding arbitration on an individual basis, rather than in court.
The arbitration shall be administered by a neutral arbitration provider mutually agreed by the parties or, if the parties cannot agree, by the American Arbitration Association under its applicable rules.
The arbitration shall take place in DuPage County, Illinois, unless the parties agree to remote proceedings or another location.
The arbitrator shall have authority to award the same individual remedies that a court could award, subject to the limitations and exclusions in these Terms. The arbitrator shall apply Illinois law, consistent with the Federal Arbitration Act where applicable.
Nothing in this section prevents either party from seeking temporary or preliminary injunctive relief in a court of competent jurisdiction where necessary to protect intellectual property, confidential information, data security, or other urgent rights pending completion of arbitration.
To the fullest extent permitted by law, you and New Home Star agree that any dispute resolution proceeding, whether in arbitration or court, shall be conducted only on an individual basis and not as a class action, collective action, consolidated action, private attorney general action, or representative action.
You and New Home Star each waive the right to participate in, bring, maintain, or receive relief from any class, collective, consolidated, or representative proceeding.
If any portion of this class action waiver is found unenforceable as to a particular claim or request for relief, then that claim or request for relief shall proceed only to the extent necessary in a court of competent jurisdiction and shall be stayed pending arbitration of all arbitrable claims.
To the fullest extent permitted by law, you and New Home Star knowingly and voluntarily waive any right to a trial by jury in any dispute, claim, or proceeding arising out of or relating to these Terms, the Site, or your use of the Site.
The arbitration requirement does not apply to:
● Individual claims that may properly be brought in small claims court;
● Claims seeking temporary or preliminary injunctive relief for intellectual property misuse, unauthorized access, data security, confidentiality, or misuse of the Site;
● Claims that, by law, cannot be required to be arbitrated.
Any permitted court proceeding shall be brought exclusively in the state or federal courts located in or serving DuPage County, Illinois, unless applicable law requires otherwise.
If any provision of these Terms is found to be invalid, unlawful, or unenforceable, that provision shall be enforced to the maximum extent permitted by law, and the remaining provisions shall remain in full force and effect.
Our failure to enforce any provision of these Terms shall not constitute a waiver of that provision or any other provision.
These Terms, together with our Privacy Policy and any additional terms that apply to particular areas of the Site or specific services, constitute the entire agreement between you and New Home Star regarding your use of the Site.
