12. Dispute Resolution
- 12.1. Governing Law. This Agreement shall be governed by and construed in accordance with the laws of the Republic of Lithuania, without regard to its conflict of law principles.
- 12.2. Jurisdiction. The parties irrevocably consent to the exclusive jurisdiction and venue of the courts located in Vilnius, Lithuania, for any and all disputes, claims, and actions arising from or in connection with this Agreement and the Services provided by Onchain Labs.
- 12.3. Dispute Resolution Process. In the event of any dispute, claim, question, or disagreement arising from or relating to this Agreement or the breach thereof, the parties hereto shall use their best efforts to settle the dispute, claim, question, or disagreement. To this effect, they shall consult and negotiate with each other in good faith and, recognizing their mutual interests, attempt to reach a just and equitable solution satisfactory to both parties. If Parties do not reach such solution within a period of 60 days, then, upon notice by either party to the other, disputes, claims, questions, or disagreements shall be finally settled by arbitration administered by the Vilnius Court of Commercial Arbitration in accordance with UNCITRAL Arbitration Rules (“UNCITRAL Rules”), and judgment on the award rendered by the arbitrator(s) may be entered in any court having jurisdiction thereof.
- 12.4. Arbitration Location and Procedure. Any arbitration shall be conducted in Vilnius, Lithuania. The arbitration shall be conducted by a single arbitrator, selected in accordance with the UNCITRAL Rules, and shall be conducted in the English language.

- 12.5. Costs of Arbitration. Each party shall bear its own costs and expenses and an equal share of the arbitrator's and administrative fees of arbitration.
- 12.6. Judge and Jury Waiver. YOU AND ONCHAIN LABS HEREBY WAIVE ANY CONSTITUTIONAL AND STATUTORY RIGHTS TO SUE IN COURT AND HAVE A TRIAL IN FRONT OF A JUDGE OR A JURY. Instead, the Parties elect that all claims and disputes shall be resolved by arbitration under this Agreement, except the defined exceptions. An arbitrator can award on an individual basis the same damages and relief as a court and must follow these Terms as a court would. However, there is no judge or jury in arbitration, and court review of an arbitration award is subject to very limited review.
- 12.7. Class-Action Waiver. ALL CLAIMS AND DISPUTES WITHIN THE SCOPE OF THIS AGREEMENT MUST BE ARBITRATED ON AN INDIVIDUAL BASIS AND NOT ON A REPRESENTATIVE (INCLUDING, WITHOUT LIMITATION, PAGA) OR COLLECTIVE CLASS BASIS. ONLY INDIVIDUAL RELIEF IS AVAILABLE, AND CLAIMS OF MORE THAN ONE USER, PERSON, OR ENTITY CANNOT BE ARBITRATED OR CONSOLIDATED WITH THOSE OF ANY OTHER USER, PERSON, OR ENTITY. Accordingly, under the arbitration procedures outlined in this section, an arbitrator shall not combine or consolidate more than one party’s claims without the written consent of all affected parties to an arbitration proceeding. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, you and Onchain Labs agree that no Dispute shall proceed by way of class arbitration without the written consent of all affected parties. If a decision is issued stating that applicable law precludes enforcement of any part of this subsection’s limitations as to a given claim for relief, then that claim must be severed from the arbitration and brought before the courts of Vilnius, Lithuania. All other claims shall be arbitrated.
13. Termination

If you do not agree to the new Terms, you are no longer authorized to use the Platform.
- 14.5. Force Majeure. Neither party shall be liable for any failure or delay in performing its obligations under these Terms to the extent that such failure or delay is caused by a force majeure event. A force majeure event refers to an event beyond the reasonable control of the party affected, including but not limited to acts of God, fire, flood, severe weather conditions, war, terrorist attacks, civil commotion, riots, epidemics, pandemics, government actions, labour disputes, blockchain failures, regulatory changes, network outages or any other unforeseen circumstances that are beyond the control of such a party.
