User hereby irrevocably and unconditionally consents to jurisdiction in the State of California. 14. Waiver/Severability.The failure of Digparty to require or enforce strict performance by User of any provision of these Terms of Service or to exercise any right under them shall not be construed as a waiver or relinquishment of Digparty's right to assert or rely upon any such provision or right in that or any other instance.
