You and konekme agree to submit to the personal and exclusive jurisdiction of the courts located within the county of Santa Clara , California . The failure of konekme to exercise or enforce any right or provision of the TOU shall not constitute a waiver of such right or provision.

If you post a message that (1) impersonates any person or entity; (2) falsely states or otherwise misrepresents your affiliation with a person or entity; or (3) that includes personal or identifying information about another person without that person's explicit consent, you agree to pay konekme five thousand dollars ($5,000) for each such message. This provision does not apply to Content that constitutes lawful non-deceptive parody of public figures. b. If you post Content in violation of the TOU, other than as described above, you agree to pay konekme one hundred dollars ($100) for each Item of Content posted. In its sole discretion, konekme may elect to issue a warning before assessing damages. c. If you are a Posting Agent that uses the Service in violation of the TOU, in addition to any liquidated damages under clause (d), you agree to pay konekme one hundred dollars ($100) for each and every Item you post in violation of the TOU. A Posting Agent will also be deemed an agent of the party engaging the Posting Agent to access the Service (the "Principal"), and the Principal (by engaging the Posting Agent in violation of the TOU) agrees to pay konekme an additional one hundred dollars ($100) for each Item posted by the Posting Agent on behalf of the Principal in violation of the TOU. d.
