The Services are not tailored to comply with industry-specific regulations (Health Insurance Portability and Accountability Act (HIPAA), Federal Information Security Management Act (FISMA), etc.), so if your interactions would be subjected to such laws, you may not use the Services.

Nothing in these Legal Terms will be construed to obligate us to maintain and support the Services or to supply any corrections, updates, or releases.
20. Governing Law
These Legal Terms are governed by and interpreted following the laws of Switzerland. The use of the United Nations Convention of Contracts for the International Sales of Goods is expressly excluded. Suppose your habitual residence is in the EU, and you are a consumer. In that case, you also possess the protection provided by obligatory law provisions in your country of residence. Dal Molin Consulting GmbH and you both agree to submit to the non-exclusive jurisdiction of the courts of Zug, which means that you may make a claim to defend your consumer protection rights in regards to these Legal Terms in Switzerland, or in the EU country in which you reside.
21. Dispute Resolution
Informal Negotiations
To expedite resolution and control the cost of any dispute, controversy, or claim related to these Legal Terms (each a "Dispute" and collectively, the "Disputes") brought by either you or us (individually, a "Party" and collectively, the "Parties"), the Parties agree to first attempt to negotiate any Dispute (except those Disputes expressly provided below) informally for at least thirty (30) days before initiating arbitration. Such informal negotiations commence upon written notice from one Party to the other Party.
Binding Arbitration
Any dispute arising from the relationships between the Parties to these Legal Terms shall be determined by one arbitrator who will be chosen under the Arbitration and Internal Rules of the European Court of Arbitration, being part of the European Centre of Arbitration having its seat in Strasbourg, and which are in force at the time the application for arbitration is filed, and of which adoption of this clause constitutes acceptance. The seat of arbitration shall be Zug, Switzerland. The language of the proceedings shall be English. Applicable rules of substantive law shall be the law of Switzerland.
Restrictions
The Parties agree that arbitration shall be limited to the Dispute between the Parties. To the full extent permitted by law, (a) no arbitration shall be joined with any other proceeding; (b) there is no right or authority for any Dispute to be arbitrated on a class-action basis or to utilize class-action procedures; and (c) there is no right or authority for any Dispute to be brought in a purported representative capacity on behalf of the general public or any other persons.
Exceptions to Informal Negotiations and Arbitration
The Parties agree that the following Disputes are not subject to the above provisions concerning informal negotiations binding arbitration: (a) any Disputes seeking to enforce or protect, or concerning the validity of, any of the intellectual property rights of a Party; (b) any Dispute related to, or arising from, allegations of theft, piracy, invasion of privacy, or unauthorized use; and (c) any claim for injunctive relief. Suppose this provision is found to be illegal or unenforceable. In that case, neither Party will elect to arbitrate any Dispute falling within that portion of this provision found to be unlawful or unenforceable. Such Dispute shall be decided by a court of competent jurisdiction within the courts listed for jurisdiction above. The Parties agree to submit to the personal jurisdiction of that court.
22. Corrections

20. Governing Law
These Legal Terms are governed by and interpreted following the laws of Switzerland. The use of the United Nations Convention of Contracts for the International Sales of Goods is expressly excluded. Suppose your habitual residence is in the EU, and you are a consumer. In that case, you also possess the protection provided by obligatory law provisions in your country of residence.

21. Dispute Resolution
Informal Negotiations
To expedite resolution and control the cost of any dispute, controversy, or claim related to these Legal Terms (each a "Dispute" and collectively, the "Disputes") brought by either you or us (individually, a "Party" and collectively, the "Parties"), the Parties agree to first attempt to negotiate any Dispute (except those Disputes expressly provided below) informally for at least thirty (30) days before initiating arbitration. Such informal negotiations commence upon written notice from one Party to the other Party.
Binding Arbitration
Any dispute arising from the relationships between the Parties to these Legal Terms shall be determined by one arbitrator who will be chosen under the Arbitration and Internal Rules of the European Court of Arbitration, being part of the European Centre of Arbitration having its seat in Strasbourg, and which are in force at the time the application for arbitration is filed, and of which adoption of this clause constitutes acceptance. The seat of arbitration shall be Zug, Switzerland. The language of the proceedings shall be English. Applicable rules of substantive law shall be the law of Switzerland.
Restrictions
The Parties agree that arbitration shall be limited to the Dispute between the Parties. To the full extent permitted by law, (a) no arbitration shall be joined with any other proceeding; (b) there is no right or authority for any Dispute to be arbitrated on a class-action basis or to utilize class-action procedures; and (c) there is no right or authority for any Dispute to be brought in a purported representative capacity on behalf of the general public or any other persons.
Exceptions to Informal Negotiations and Arbitration
The Parties agree that the following Disputes are not subject to the above provisions concerning informal negotiations binding arbitration: (a) any Disputes seeking to enforce or protect, or concerning the validity of, any of the intellectual property rights of a Party; (b) any Dispute related to, or arising from, allegations of theft, piracy, invasion of privacy, or unauthorized use; and (c) any claim for injunctive relief. Suppose this provision is found to be illegal or unenforceable. In that case, neither Party will elect to arbitrate any Dispute falling within that portion of this provision found to be unlawful or unenforceable. Such Dispute shall be decided by a court of competent jurisdiction within the courts listed for jurisdiction above. The Parties agree to submit to the personal jurisdiction of that court.
22. Corrections
