Severability: We both agree that if we cannot enforce a part of these Terms of Use as written due to a conflict with state or federal law, then that part will be replaced with terms that most closely match the intent of the part we cannot enforce to the extent permitted by law.

Both parties must keep the dispute confidential, to the maximum extent permitted by law.
