Governing Law and Dispute Resolution

Governing Law: These Terms and Conditions shall be governed and construed in accordance with the laws of the United Kingdom, without regard to its conflict of law provisions.

Our failure to enforce any right or provision of these Terms and Conditions will not be considered a waiver of those rights.

Alternative Dispute Resolution:

Users are encouraged to consider the use of alternative dispute resolution methods, such as mediation or arbitration, before resorting to litigation.
