We reserve all rights not expressly granted in these Terms.
For the avoidance of doubt, your license under this section permits you to use Bravura Pro to develop an Application (“Bravura Pro Project”) for yourself, but the license does not permit you to sublicense Bravura Pro or to resell or commercialize the Services. Bravura Pro and the Services are licensed to you as specified hereunder, not sold. Except in accordance with this Section 2, below, DMG does not grant you any interests in, or ownership of, any of Bravura Pro or any other Services, and all rights not expressly granted are reserved by DMG. Your license grant hereunder shall automatically terminate upon the termination or expiration of these Terms.
If you sell, assign, or license the Application pursuant to paragraph 2, below, to any extent that a current subscription to Bravura Pro is required for your customer, a separate Bravura Pro license will be required for such customer.
Ownership of Project.
Except as otherwise expressly indicated herein, and subject to the JumpStart Rails TOU attached as Exhibit A, you may use Bravura Pro to build one or more Applications as Bravura Pro Projects as determined by your subscription type. A User must modify the Bravura Pro source code from its original format to develop an Bravura Pro Project. You own all right, title and interest in and to your Bravura Pro Project(s), including without limitation all images, illustrations, designs, photographs, video clips, text, graphics, icons, designs, software code, written information and screens appearing therein, and other materials, as well as names, logos, taglines, trade dress, and other trademarks therein, and may sell, assign, or license your Application to an end user. DMG does not control and is in no way responsible for, and will incur no liability related to, your finished Application(s) or any contents, features, functionality, or use thereof. You agree to provide support for your Application(s).
For the avoidance of doubt, as between DMG and You, You are solely responsible for all
- licensing or sale of the Application; and,

These Terms of Use therefore incorporate the JumpStart Pro Terms of Service, as provided in Exhibit A.

Either party may bring a lawsuit solely for injunctive relief to stop unauthorized use or abuse of Bravura Pro, or infringement of intellectual property rights (for example, trademark, trade secret, copyright, or patent rights) without first engaging in arbitration or the informal dispute resolution process described above.
Intellectual Property Disputes. Notwithstanding the Parties' decision to resolve all disputes through arbitration, either party may bring an action in state or federal court that only asserts claims for patent infringement or invalidity, copyright infringement, moral rights violations, trademark infringement, and/or trade secret misappropriation, but not, for clarity, claims related to the license granted to you for Bravura Pro under these Terms. Either Party may also seek relief in a small claims court for disputes or claims within the scope of that court's jurisdiction.
Limitation on Claims. Regardless of any statute or law to the contrary, any claim or cause of action arising out of or related to your use of Bravura Pro must be filed within one (1) year after such claim or cause of action arose, or else that claim or cause of action will be barred forever. To the extent that the arbitration agreement is not enforceable, each party hereby irrevocably consents to the exclusive jurisdiction and venue of the federal, state, and local courts in Salt Lake City, Utah for resolution of any lawsuit or court proceeding permitted under these Terms.
General Terms
Relationship of Parties. No joint venture, partnership, employment, or agency relationship exists between you and Dice Media Group as a result of these Terms or your use of the Services.
Consent to Do Business Electronically. By using Bravura Pro in any manner, registering as a User, or typing your name into any of our electronic forms and indicating your acceptance or submission of information by clicking a box, you affirmatively consent to (i) Dice Media Group communicating with you electronically; (ii) receiving all applications, notices, disclosures and authorizations (collectively, "Records") from Dice Media Group electronically; and (iii) entering into agreements and transactions using electronic Records and signatures. Please note that federal law treats electronic signatures as having the same legal force and effect as if they were signed on paper by hand, and online contracts have the same legal force as signing an equivalent paper contract in ink. You must have a computer or other web-enabled device, connection to the internet, an active email account, and the ability to receive and read PDF files to conduct business with us electronically. You agree to be responsible for keeping your own Records. You may print or download Records from the Site and keep them for your own reference.

Assignment. You may not assign, delegate, or transfer these Terms or your rights or obligations hereunder in any way (by operation of law or otherwise) without prior written consent from Dice Media Group. We may transfer, assign, or delegate these Terms and our rights and obligations without consent.
Governing Law. Except as otherwise required by applicable law, these Terms and the resolution of any Disputes shall be governed by and construed in accordance with the laws of the State of Utah without regard to its conflict of laws principles.
Waiver; Severability. Dice Media Group's failure to enforce any provision of these Terms will not be deemed a waiver of that provision or any other provision of these Terms. If any provision of these Terms is held invalid or unenforceable under applicable law, that portion shall be construed in a manner consistent with applicable law to accomplish, as nearly as possible, the objective thereof, or shall be severed from the document if, and solely, to the limited extent such construction is not possible, and the remaining portion of these Terms shall remain in full force and effect.
Void Where Prohibited. Bravura Pro is owned and operated in the United States. Not all of Bravura Pro is available to all persons or at all locations. Access to Bravura Pro may not be legal by certain persons or in certain countries. You are solely responsible for verifying that the laws of the country or state (or other applicable jurisdiction) from which you access Bravura Pro permit you to USE Bravura Pro. If you access Bravura Pro from outside the United States, you do so on your own initiative and are responsible for compliance with local laws. We reserve the right to limit, at our sole discretion, the provision of any such Services to any person or in any location. Any offer of a Service in these Terms shall be deemed void where prohibited.
Amendment. We may amend these Terms from time to time by updating this page as evidenced by revising the "Last Updated" date noted at the top of this posting. Once you accept these Terms, the then-current version shall apply each time you access or use the Services. Nothing in these Terms will be deemed to confer any third-party rights or benefits.
Entire Agreement. This Agreement, along with the Dice Media Group Terms of Use and other agreements and policies referenced herein, constitutes the entire agreement between the parties with respect to the subject matter hereof. These Terms may be executed by the parties in one or more counterparts, each of which when so executed and delivered shall be an original and such counterparts shall together constitute one and the same instrument.
