      • such loss or damage relates to a business of yours.

English law and courts   

IN SHORT: ENGLISH LAW APPLIES AND ONLY UK COURTS CAN ADJUDICATE ON DISPUTES

 

    • This contract is under English law and any disputes will be decided only by the courts of the United Kingdom.  If you are a Consumer, you will benefit from any mandatory provisions of the law of the country in which you are resident.
