15. GENERAL
Notwithstanding any other provision of these Terms or any Additional Terms and Conditions, Auto Loans will not be liable for any delay in performing, or failure to perform, any of its obligations under these Terms or any Additional Terms and Conditions to the extent performance is delayed or prevented due to any cause or causes that are beyond the Canada Drives Company’s control, any delay or failure of that kind will not be deemed to be a breach of these Terms or any Additional Terms and Conditions by the Canada Drives Company, and the time for the Canada Drives Company’s performance of the affected obligation will be extended by a period that is reasonable in the circumstances.

These Terms, the Website Terms and Conditions, the Privacy Policy, and all other notices, policies and statements contained on this Website (all as may be amended by us from time to time without prior notice) constitute the entire agreement between autoloans.ca and you. These Terms cannot be modified except as described herein. Anything in this Website inconsistent with these Terms is superseded by these Terms. No waiver of any of these Terms will be deemed a further or continuing waiver of such Term or any other Term. If in any jurisdiction, any of these Terms are held to be unenforceable by a court of competent jurisdiction, such Terms will be restricted or eliminated to the minimum extent necessary and the remaining Terms will otherwise remain in full force and effect. The headings used in these Terms are included for convenience only and will not limit or otherwise affect these Terms.

These Terms and the subject matter of these Terms and all related matters will be governed by, and construed in accordance with, the laws of the Province of Ontario, Canada and the laws of Canada applicable in Ontario, excluding any laws that implement the United Nations Convention on Contracts for the International Sale of Goods or the United States Uniform Commercial Code, and excluding any rules of private international law or the conflict of laws that would lead to the application of any other laws. Subject to the following paragraph, you submit to the exclusive jurisdiction of the courts of the Province of Ontario.

To the extent permitted by applicable law, unless we agree otherwise, any claim, dispute or controversy, whether in contract or tort, pursuant to statute or regulation, or otherwise, and whether pre-existing, present or future, arising out of or relating to the Services, this Website, these Terms, the General Terms and Conditions of Service, or the Privacy Policy, will be determined by final and binding arbitration to the exclusion of the courts. Where applicable, arbitration will be conducted in the province in which you reside, on a simplified and expedited basis by one arbitrator pursuant to the current laws and rules relating to commercial arbitration in the province or jurisdiction in which you reside on the date of the notice. The foregoing does not, however, preclude us from seeking injunctive relief in other jurisdictions when necessary to protect its interests. You agree that any dispute resolution proceedings will be conducted only on an individual basis and not in a class, consolidated or representative action. If for any reason a Claim proceeds in court rather than in arbitration, you waive any right to a jury trial.

These Terms have been drawn up in the English language at the express request of the parties. Les présentes modalités ont été rédigées en anglais à la demande expresse des parties.
