If you reside in Europe, the price includes any applicable VAT.

15.2. The Terms and all aspects of the Applications shall be governed by and construed in accordance with the laws of Hong Kong (excluding principles relating to the conflict of laws) regardless of your location. With respect to any Disputes not subject to informal dispute resolution or arbitration (as set out below), you agree not to commence or prosecute any action in connection therewith other than in the courts in Hong Kong, and you hereby consent to, and waive all defences of lack of personal jurisdiction and forum non conveniens with respect to, venue and jurisdiction in the Hong Kong courts.

15.3. You acknowledge that the rights granted and obligations made hereunder to us are of a unique and irreplaceable nature, the loss of which will cause us irreparable harm and which cannot be readily remedied in monetary damages in an action at law.

You irrevocably waive all rights to seek injunctive or other equitable relief and agree to limit your claims to claims for monetary damages (if any).

15.4. To expedite resolution and control the cost of any Dispute, we and you agree to first attempt to negotiate any Dispute (except those Disputes expressly provided in Section 15.6) informally for at least thirty (30) calendar days before initiating any arbitration or court proceeding. Such informal negotiations commence upon written notice from one party to the other.

15.5. If we and you are unable to resolve a Dispute through informal negotiations, either party may elect to have the Dispute (except those Disputes expressly excluded in Section 15.6) finally and exclusively resolved by binding arbitration under the UNCITRAL Arbitration Rules, which Rules are deemed to be incorporated by reference into this Section. Any election to arbitrate by one party shall be final and binding on the other. The place of arbitration shall be in Hong Kong at the Hong Kong International Arbitration Centre. The number of arbitrators shall be one. The language to be used in the arbitral proceedings shall be English. We and you shall be bound by the award rendered by the arbitrator and judgment thereon may be entered in any court of competent jurisdiction.

15.6. We and you agree that the following Disputes are not subject to the above provisions concerning informal negotiations and arbitration:

any Disputes seeking to enforce or protect, or concerning the validity of, any of our or your intellectual property rights;

any Disputes relating to, or arising from, allegations of invasion of privacy, piracy, theft or unauthorised use; and
