General
These Terms, which include the Privacy Statement, are the complete agreement between you and The Cooper Union regarding your use of our Site and supersede all other agreements (oral or written) between you and The Cooper Union regarding its subject matter, except that it will supplement and not supersede other specific terms that may be available on the Site or that you have otherwise entered into with The Cooper Union concerning use of the Site or Site Content. These Terms are governed by and should be construed according to the laws of the State of New York applicable to agreements made and performed in New York, without reference to any provision that would lead to the application of the laws of another jurisdiction. If you choose to access our Site from jurisdictions other than the United States, you do so at your own risk, and you are responsible for complying with any applicable local laws as well as these Terms. You irrevocably agree: (A) to bring any claim or dispute relating to your use of our Site and these Terms exclusively in the state and federal courts located in the State and County of New York; (B) to submit to the exclusive jurisdiction of those courts; and (C) to waive any objection to those courts based on inconvenience or other reasons.

You may not assign your rights under these Terms without The Cooper Union’s prior written consent, and any attempted assignment will be null and void. If a court of competent jurisdiction determines that any provision of these Terms is unenforceable for any reason, then that provision will be deleted (or, if possible, modified in a manner that will reflect the original intent as closely as possible) and the remaining provisions will be enforceable to the fullest extent permitted by law. The failure of a party to assert any right under these Terms will not be considered a waiver of that party’s right unless the waiver is in writing. The term “including” in these Terms is intended to be illustrative and means “including without limitation.”
