You also may have other rights, which may vary from state to state and jurisdiction to jurisdiction.

13. Limitation of Liability.

YOU UNDERSTAND AND AGREE THAT CORELOGIC WILL NOT BE LIABLE FOR ANY DIRECT, INDIRECT, INCIDENTAL, SPECIAL, CONSEQUENTIAL, PUNITIVE, OR EXEMPLARY DAMAGES RESULTING FROM OR IN ANY WAY CONNECTED TO YOUR ACCESS TO, USE, INABILITY TO USE, OR RELIANCE ON THE CORELOGIC WEBSITE OR ANY PRODUCTS OR SERVICES OBTAINED THROUGH THE WEBSITE.

15. Severability and Integration.

Unless otherwise specified in these Terms of Use or the website, these Terms of Use constitute the entire agreement between you and CoreLogic with respect to the website and supersedes all prior or contemporaneous communications and proposals (whether oral, written, or electronic) between you and CoreLogic with respect to the website. If any part of these Terms of Use is held invalid or unenforceable, that portion is construed in a manner consistent with applicable law to reflect, as nearly as possible, the original intentions of the parties, and the remaining portions remain in full effect.

16. Dispute Resolution. YOU AGREE THAT YOUR USE OF THIS WEBSITE CONSTITUTES A TRANSACTION IN INTERSTATE COMMERCE AND THAT

Any claim or controversy arising out of or relating to the use of this website or to any acts or omissions for which you may contend CoreLogic is liable, including but not limited to any claim or controversy as to arbitrability ("Dispute"), shall be finally, and exclusively, settled by arbitration PURSUANT TO THE FEDERAL ARBITRATION ACT, 9 U.S.C. § 1 ET SEQ.

YOU THUS GIVE UP YOUR RIGHT TO GO TO COURT TO ASSERT OR DEFEND YOUR RIGHTS. YOU ALSO GIVE UP YOUR RIGHT TO PARTICIPATE IN OR BRING CLASS ACTIONS. YOUR RIGHTS WILL BE DETERMINED BY NEUTRAL ARBITRATORS AND NOT A JUDGE OR JURY.

The arbitration will be held before one arbitrator under the arbitration rules of the American Arbitration Association ("AAA") in force at that time. The arbitration will be conducted in Orange County, California. The arbitrator will be selected pursuant to the AAA rules. Should no AAA rule regarding the selection of an arbitrator be in effect, you will select an arbitrator from a panel of arbitrators acceptable to CoreLogic. In any arbitration, CoreLogic will pay the filing fee, plus the costs associated with the first day of arbitration, with the remaining costs of arbitration paid by the non-prevailing party. To begin the arbitration process, a party must make a written demand.

Any judgment upon the award rendered by the arbitrators may be entered in any court of competent jurisdiction. The arbitrators will not have the power to multiply actual damages or award consequential, punitive or exemplary damages, and each party irrevocably waives any claim thereto. The agreement to arbitrate will not be construed as an agreement to the joinder or consolidation of an arbitration under these Terms of Use with an arbitration of disputes or claims of any non-party, regardless of the nature of the issues or disputes involved.

Should a dispute arise and should the arbitration provisions become inapplicable or unenforceable, you agree that jurisdiction over and venue of any suit will be exclusively in the state and federal courts sitting in Orange County, California. If either party employs attorneys to enforce any right in connection with any dispute or lawsuit the prevailing party is entitled to recover reasonable attorneys' fees.

17. Claims of Copyright Infringement.

If you believe that your work has been copied and is accessible on the website in a way that constitutes copyright infringement, notify CoreLogic in writing:

CoreLogic
Attn: Legal Department
4 First American Way
Santa Ana, CA 92707

Any claim of copyright infringement should include sufficient information to enable us to evaluate your claim and to take appropriate action.

18. Governing Law.

You agree that all matters relating to your access to, or use of, the website, and all matters relating to these Terms of Use are governed by the laws of the State of California, which apply in all respects, including statutes of limitation. No choice of law rules of any jurisdiction will apply to nullify this choice of law.

19. Non-Waiver.

CoreLogic's failure to exercise or enforce any right or provision of these Terms of Use does not constitute a waiver of that right or provision.

20. Assignment.

CoreLogic may assign these Terms of Use, in whole or in part, at any time with or without notice to you. You may not assign these Terms of Use or assign, transfer or sublicense your rights, if any, in the Service.

21. Other Agreements.

In the event you enter into an agreement with product specific terms, such agreement will apply.

This Privacy Policy governs CoreLogic and our use of nonpublic personal information about you. This Privacy Policy does not govern publicly available information we obtain about you and certain products or platforms offered by CoreLogic may be governed by separate privacy policies.

Use of Information

We request information from you for our own legitimate business purposes and not for the benefit of any nonaffiliated party. Therefore, we will not release your information to nonaffiliated parties except: (1) as necessary for us to provide the product or service you have requested of us; (2) as permitted by law; or (3) as otherwise specified herein. We may, however, store such information indefinitely, including the period after which any customer relationship has ceased. Such information may be used for any internal purpose, such as quality control efforts or customer analysis. We may also provide all of the types of nonpublic personal information listed above to one or more of our affiliated companies. Such affiliated companies include financial service providers, such as title insurers, property and casualty insurers, and trust and investment advisory companies, or companies involved in real estate services, such as appraisal companies, home warranty companies and escrow companies. It is possible that CoreLogic, its subsidiaries, affiliates, joint venture companies, or any combination of them, could merge with or be acquired by another legal entity. In such event, CoreLogic may share your information with such other entity. Furthermore, we may also provide all the information we collect, as described above, to companies that perform marketing services on our behalf, on behalf of our affiliated companies or to other financial institutions with whom we or our affiliated companies have joint marketing agreements. In some circumstances, we will request your consent to share your information with nonaffiliated third parties, such as lenders, realtors, and insurers, so that they may offer you products and services that may be of interest to you.
