Governing Law
All matters relating to the Services and this Agreement and any applicable EULA, and any dispute or claim arising therefrom or related thereto (in each case, including non-contractual disputes or claims), shall be governed by and construed in accordance with the internal laws of the State of California without giving effect to any choice or conflict of law provision or rule (whether of the State of California or any other jurisdiction) and the Federal Arbitration Act.
