The same applies to all personal costs incurred during the trip (minibar, telephone, etc.). The value of the trip in the promotional materials is based on the most expensive travel season and is thus subject to change according to seasonality and currency fluctuations depending on when the trip is made available and taken. The winner acknowledges this and agrees that compensation for any difference in value in any form is excluded.

Prize Supplier is furthermore not liable for the consequences of a legitimate change in the form of travel offered or legitimate cancellation by the tour operator. Payout of the value of the trip is not permitted.

7. LIMITATION OF LIABILITY; SOLE AND EXCLUSIVE REMEDY

TO THE MAXIMUM EXTENT PERMITTED BY LAW, VEX, ITS AFFILIATES, SHAREHOLDERS, LICENSORS, SUPPLIERS, ADVERTISERS, SPONSORS AND OTHER BUSINESS PARTNERS (COLLECTIVELY, THE “RELATED PARTIES”) DISCLAIM ALL LIABILITY, WHETHER BASED IN CONTRACT, TORT (INCLUDING NEGLIGENCE), STRICT LIABILITY OR OTHERWISE, AND FURTHER DISCLAIM ALL LOSSES, INCLUDING WITHOUT LIMITATION DIRECT, INDIRECT, INCIDENTAL, CONSEQUENTIAL, SPECIAL, EXEMPLARY, PUNITIVE OR OTHER DAMAGES (INCLUDING, WITHOUT LIMITATION, DAMAGES FOR LOSS OF BUSINESS, LOSS OF DATA OR LOST PROFITS) ARISING OUT OF OR IN ANY WAY CONNECTED WITH ACCESS TO OR USE OF THE VEX SITES AND/OR THE VEX SERVICES, EVEN IF VEX AND/OR RELATED PARTIES HAVE BEEN ADVISED OF THE POSSIBILITY OF SUCH DAMAGES. VEX IS NOT LIABLE FOR ANY INTERRUPTION OF SERVICE OF THE CLIENT GAMES. VEX AND/OR THE RELATED PARTIES ARE NOT LIABLE FOR ANY ACTIONS OF CONTEST ORGANIZERS OR THEIR FAILURE TO DISTRIBUTE PRIZES. WITHOUT LIMITING THE FOREGOING, IN NO CASE SHALL THE LIABILITY OF VEX OR ANY OF THE RELATED PARTIES, NOR ITS OR THEIR DIRECTORS, OFFICERS, EMPLOYEES, CONSULTANTS, AGENTS OR OTHER REPRESENTATIVES, EXCEED THE GREATER OF THE AMOUNT THAT YOU PAID TO US OR OUR DESIGNEES DURING THE SIX (6) MONTHS PRIOR TO THE TIME YOUR CAUSE OF ACTION AROSE AND $100 USD.

Because some states or jurisdictions do not allow the exclusion or the limitation of liability for consequential or incidental damages, in such states or jurisdictions, the liability of VEX and its affiliates shall be limited to the fullest extent permitted by law.

8. MISCELLANEOUS

1. GOVERNING LAW
   The Agreement and any claims relating to its subject matter, without regard to principles of conflict of laws, shall be governed by and construed under the laws of Belgium, without reference to its conflicts of law principles. All disputes will be subject to the exclusive jurisdiction of the courts located in Brabant Walloon. This Agreement shall not be governed by the United Nations Convention on Contracts for the International Sale of Goods, the application of which is expressly disclaimed. No party shall make a motion to dismiss or transfer any case filed in accordance with this subsection on the basis of improper venue, personal jurisdiction, or of the convenience of any party or witness.
2. WAIVER OF CLASS-WIDE PROCEEDINGS
   You agree that, by entering into these Terms of Use, you and we are each waiving the right to participate in a class action or class arbitration. Each party to these Terms of Use agrees and covenants that it will not initiate any class-wide proceedings, including class actions or class arbitrations, against another party, and will not act as a class representative or class member. This provision constitutes an agreement that any Claim will be resolved exclusively on a bilateral basis between the parties, with each party acting in his/her/its individual capacity. Further, unless both parties agree otherwise, the arbitrator may not consolidate more than one person’s claims, and may not otherwise preside over any form of a representative or class proceeding. The arbitrator may award relief only in favor of the individual party seeking relief and only to the extent necessary to provide relief warranted by that party’s individual claim. If for any reason the prohibition on class arbitration in this subsection is not or cannot be enforced, then the agreement to arbitrate will not apply.
3. DISPUTES
   Any dispute relating in any way to your visit to the VEX Sites, use of the VEX Services or otherwise relating to your VEX Account, will be finally settled by binding arbitration under the jurisdiction of the courts located in Brabant Walloon, Belgium (“Rules”) (which Rules are deemed to be incorporated by reference into these Terms and Conditions) by one arbitrator, appointed in accordance with the Rules, the arbitration will take place in Belgium and the language of the arbitration will be French, except that, to the extent you have acted in any manner or refrained from acting in a manner that, in VEX’s sole opinion, infringes VEX’s rights, such as where you have violated or threatened to violate VEX’s intellectual property rights or which has, or is likely to, affect adversely, VEX, the VEX Services or the VEX Sites or the rights of a third party. VEX shall have the right to seek injunctive or other appropriate relief in the courts of the Kingdom of Belgium, and you consent to exclusive jurisdiction and venue in such courts. To the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, no arbitration under these Terms and Conditions shall be joined to an arbitration involving any other party subject to these Terms and Conditions, whether through class arbitration proceedings or otherwise.
4. ENTIRE AGREEMENT
   These Terms & Conditions and other legal notices published by VEX on the VEX Sites applicable to an activity you engage in shall constitute the entire agreement between you and VEX concerning the VEX Sites and VEX Services.
5. SEVERABILITY
   If any of the provisions of these Terms & Conditions shall be deemed invalid, void, or for any reason unenforceable, that provision shall be deemed severable and shall not affect the validity and enforceability of any of the remaining provisions of these Terms & Conditions, which shall continue in full force and effect.
6. WAIVER
   No waiver shall be deemed a further or continuing waiver, and VEX’s failure to assert any right under these Terms & Conditions shall not constitute a waiver of such right. You agree that any cause of action arising out of or relating to the VEX Sites must commence within one (1) year after the cause of action arises, and otherwise, the maximum extent permitted by the relevant laws, is permanently barred.
7. OBLIGATION DISCLAIMER
