All matters relating to the Platform and these Terms, including any dispute or claim arising from or in connection with them, are governed by and construed in accordance with the laws of the British Virgin Islands, without regard to its conflict-of-law provisions.

PLEASE READ THIS SECTION CAREFULLY — IT MAY SIGNIFICANTLY AFFECT YOUR LEGAL RIGHTS. IT CONTAINS AN INFORMAL DISPUTE-RESOLUTION REQUIREMENT, AN EXCLUSIVE VENUE PROVISION, AND A CLASS ACTION WAIVER.

1. You and Katena agree that, in the event of any dispute, claim, or controversy arising from or related to the use of the Platform or these Terms (collectively, "Disputes"), either party will first contact the other party and make a good-faith, sustained effort to resolve the Dispute informally before resorting to more formal means of resolution, allowing the receiving party 30 days in which to respond. This informal dispute-resolution procedure is a condition precedent that must be satisfied before commencing any formal proceeding.
2. Any Dispute not resolved informally shall be subject to the exclusive jurisdiction of the courts of the British Virgin Islands, and you and Katena irrevocably consent to the jurisdiction of, and to venue in, those courts. Any such proceeding will be conducted on an individual basis only.

WAIVER OF CLASS ACTIONS: TO THE FULLEST EXTENT PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE LAW, YOU AND KATENA EACH AGREE THAT ANY PROCEEDING TO RESOLVE ANY DISPUTE WILL BE BROUGHT AND CONDUCTED ONLY IN AN INDIVIDUAL CAPACITY, AND NOT AS PART OF ANY CLASS, CONSOLIDATED, OR REPRESENTATIVE ACTION, AND THAT EACH PARTY WAIVES ANY RIGHT TO PARTICIPATE AS A PLAINTIFF OR CLASS MEMBER IN ANY CLASS ACTION.

Any cause of action or claim you may have arising out of or relating to these Terms or the Platform must be commenced within one (1) year after the cause of action accrues. To the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, failure to file such a claim within this period will result in the claim being permanently barred.

We will not be liable or responsible to you, nor be deemed to have defaulted under or breached these Terms, for any failure or delay in fulfilling or performing any of our obligations under these Terms, when and to the extent such failure or delay is caused by or results from events beyond our reasonable control, including acts of God, flood, fire, earthquake, epidemic, pandemic, explosion, war, invasion, hostilities, terrorist threats or acts, civil unrest, government order or action, embargoes or blockades, strikes or other labor disturbances, shortage of adequate internet or network connectivity, telecommunication breakdown, or shortage of adequate power.

Katena reserves the right to modify and update these Terms at its sole discretion. Any changes will take effect immediately upon being posted and will apply to all subsequent access to and use of the Platform. By continuing to use the Platform after updated Terms are posted, you acknowledge and agree to the changes. It is your responsibility to review this page regularly. If you disagree with the revised Terms, you must immediately stop using the Platform.

These Terms, together with our Privacy Policy and any documents expressly referenced or incorporated by reference, represent the entire agreement between you and Katena regarding the Platform, and supersede all prior or contemporaneous agreements, understandings, representations, and warranties, whether oral or written, relating to the Platform.
