    LINKS TO THIRD-PARTY WEBSITES

    Invesco may establish links between this website and one or more websites operated by third parties. Invesco has no control over any such other websites, the contents therein or the products/services offered.

Such requests, orders, or instructions will not be processed until we can confirm your instructions or obtain appropriate written documentation where necessary.

    GOVERNING LAW AND SEVERABILITY

    These terms will be governed and construed under the laws of the state of Georgia without regard to its conflict of law principles, regardless of whether you reside in Georgia or transact business with us in Georgia or elsewhere. If you take legal action relating to these terms, you agree to file such action only in the state or federal courts located in Fulton County, Georgia, and you consent and submit to the personal jurisdiction of those courts for the purpose of litigating any action with Invesco. Nothing in these terms creates any rights or protections that you are not already entitled to by law. If any part of these terms is held invalid or unenforceable, that part will be deemed modified as necessary to make it effective, and the remaining provisions of these terms will remain in effect.

    LIMIT ON LIABILITY

    Invesco will not be liable to you or anyone else for any damages of any kind, including but not limited to direct, consequential, incidental, special or indirect damages (including but not limited to lost profits, trading losses or damages that result from use or loss of use of this website). This is true even if Invesco has been advised of the possibility of such damages or losses.
