In addition, as is true of most websites, we may also gather non-personal identifiable information about your computer such as your IP address, browser type, referring/exit pages, and operating system. The Site uses a browser feature known as a cookie, which assigns a unique identification to your computer. The information collected from cookies allows us to provide better customer service to you and to improve features of our Site in a variety of ways, including by determining whether you have visited the Site in the past and which pages of our Site you have visited.

In the event that this arbitration agreement is for any reason held to be unenforceable, any litigation against MACHICO may be commenced only in PORTUGAL. You hereby irrevocably consent to the jurisdiction of those courts for such purposes.
Any cause of action you may have with respect to your use of the Site must be commenced within one (1) year after the claim or cause of action arises.

It may be necessary for MACHICO to perform scheduled or unscheduled repairs, maintenance, or upgrades and such activities may temporarily degrade the quality of the Site or result in a partial or complete outage of the Site.

No joint venture, partnership, employment, or agency relationship exists between you and MACHICO as a result of this agreement or use of the Site. The failure of MACHICO to enforce any right or provision in this Agreement shall not constitute a waiver of such right or provision unless acknowledged and agreed to by MACHICO in writing.
