You agree that Netwrix, in its sole discretion, may suspend or terminate your account (or any part thereof) or use of the Netwrix Community and remove and discard any content within the Netwrix Community, for any reason, including for lack of use or if Netwrix believes that you have violated or acted inconsistently with the letter or spirit of these Terms of Service. Any suspected fraudulent, abusive, or illegal activity that may be grounds for termination of your use of the Netwrix Community, may be referred to appropriate law enforcement authorities. Netwrix may also in its sole discretion and at any time discontinue providing the Netwrix Community, or any part thereof, with or without notice. You agree that any termination of your access to the Netwrix Community under any provision of these Terms of Service may be effected without prior notice, and acknowledge and agree that Netwrix may immediately deactivate or delete your account and all related information and files in your account and/or bar any further access to such files or the Netwrix Community.

General
These Terms of Service (together with the terms incorporated by reference herein) constitute the entire agreement between you and Netwrix governing your access and use of the Netwrix Community, and supersede any prior agreements between you and Netwrix with respect to the Netwrix Community. You also may be subject to additional terms and conditions that may apply when you use Third-Party Services, third-party content or third-party software. These Terms of Service will be governed by the laws of the State of Delaware without regard to its conflict of law provisions. With respect to any disputes or claims not subject to arbitration, as set forth above, you and Netwrix submit to the personal and exclusive jurisdiction of the state and federal courts located within Delaware. The failure of Netwrix to exercise or enforce any right or provision of these Terms of Service will not constitute a waiver of such right or provision. If any provision of these Terms of Service is found by a court of competent jurisdiction to be invalid, the parties nevertheless agree that the court should endeavor to give effect to the parties’ intentions as reflected in the provision, and the other provisions of these Terms of Service remain in full force and effect. You agree that regardless of any statute or law to the contrary, any claim or cause of action arising out of or related to use of the Netwrix Community or these Terms of Service must be filed within one (1) year after such claim or cause of action arose or be forever barred. A printed version of these Terms of Service and of any notice given in electronic form will be admissible in judicial or administrative proceedings based upon or relating to these Terms of Service to the same extent and subject to the same conditions as other business documents and records originally generated and maintained in printed form. You may not assign these Terms of Service without the prior written consent of Netwrix, but Netwrix may assign or transfer these Terms of Service, in whole or in part, without restriction. The section titles in these Terms of Service are for convenience only and have no legal or contractual effect. As used in these Terms of Service, the words “include” and “including,” and variations thereof, will not be deemed to be terms of limitation, but rather will be deemed to be followed by the words “without limitation.” Notices to you may be made via email. The Netwrix Community may also provide notices to you of changes to these Terms of Service or other matters by displaying notices or links to notices generally on the Netwrix Community. Netwrix will not be in default hereunder by reason of any failure or delay in the performance of its obligations where such failure or delay is due to civil disturbances, riot, epidemic, hostilities, war, terrorist attack, embargo, natural disaster, acts of God, flood, fire, sabotage, fluctuations or unavailability of electrical power, network access or equipment, or any other circumstances or causes beyond Netwrix’s reasonable control.
U.S. Government Restricted Rights
The Netwrix Community is made available to the U.S. government with “RESTRICTED RIGHTS.” Use, duplication, or disclosure by the U.S. government is subject to the restrictions contained in 48 CFR 52.227-19 and 48 CFR 252.227-7013 et seq. or its successor. Access or use of the Netwrix Community by the U.S. government constitutes acknowledgement of our proprietary rights in the Netwrix Community
